Daegeus HTML
NAME: Daegeus
PLAYER: sasangre
SPECIES: Unseighlie Sidhe- pronounced un-see-lee shee who are also
called the Sluagh Sidhe, or the Wild Hunt.
GENDER: Male
AGE: Unknown, and he doesnt really keep count. Age is immaterial to
the Sidhe, but he immigrated to Canada 137 years ago.
APPEARANCE:
Tall (over 6 and 1⁄2 feet), and a slender build like most of
his kind. Long black hair (mid-back length) thats normally
braided/tied up. He has the golden eyes of the Wild Hunt that can appear as
liquid fire, frosted stone or a yellow-green pool according to his moods.
PUREBLOOD?: Pureblooded Sluagh Sidhe. Not that anyone knows if he
actually HAS parents
LOCATION: Anywhere he wants to be!
SKILLS (physical):
Basically unknown. He doesnt fight much, but when
he does its not much of a fight. The other person/creature etc. simply
dies. He thinks swords and other toys are cheating. He rarely, if
ever, uses his fists. Hes most likely to hang back, laugh and then his
opponent keels over. Like all his kind hes built delicately, but has
amazing strength. He can punch his hand through a car door and not get a
bruise. That is, if he ever wanted to punch his hand through a car
door. Which he likely wouldnt.
POWERS (abilities/powers,magickal, etc.): Again, not much is known
about his abilities, physical or other wise. He does mysteriouslyappearin
places, with no way of getting there. There is some suspicion that he
uses some type of magic to get around, but the time difference is
maleable- hell dissappear for a week and reappear only feet away from where
he was spotted last. Also, most believe- since all who annoy Daegeus
disappear or immediately keel over- it wouldnt be in their best interest
to find out his particular abilities, since it probably wouldnt be good
for their health.
KNOWLEDGE:
Once again, theres no way to know what Daegeus knows and
what he doesnt. Hes been known to ask questions he already knows the
answers to and the people whose answers dont agree with his are often
mysteriously missing from work the next day. Its assumed that he knows
quite a bit about herbology, since he will once in a while offer a
poultice or some such to one he thinks worthy of it. Sometimes, the poultice
work, and sometimeswell. Daegeus has a rather nasty sense of humor on
him.
WEAPONS:
None. Well, he does carry a belt knife- possibly a hold-over
from times when a man needed to have a belt knife when he went to an
inn.
POSSESSIONS:
Clothes. His belt knife. A lean hunting hound that some
SWEAR is a shadow hound- a Faerie Hound.
MAIN SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION:
Some kind of warped teleportion that
doesnt seem very reliable and walking. He HATES anything made of metal-
so no taxis, buses or any thing of the sort. He flatly refuses to fly.
Well, fly in a plane at least.
BACKGROUND STORY:
Daegeus immigrated from Scotland a while ago. His
trail is a little erratic- due to his unusual way of traveling- but the
records state he must be at least 137 years old. Not much is known
about his life- not even if he was born or just crawled out of some dark
hole in the ground. What ever he does for work he seems to make a lot of
money at it because hes always full of cash and no pick-pocket would
ever think of trying to relieve him of his wallet. He likes luxury, and
is often found in the best inns drinking the best wine available. He
has an insatiable appetite for human food that he never thinks to curb.
POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES:
He would NEVER hurt a child or an animal. He has
been known to hunt those who harm children and abuse animals. He has
his own code of ethics that can be a little murky at times but that he
never strays from. He will not lie- the Sidhe are unable to tell an
untruth- even though he knows all the shades that truth can come in and is
not above using those shades for his own good. He does his best to
refrain from harming innocents, but his idea of innocence can be a
bit inexplicable at times.
NEGATIVE ATTRIBUTES:
He cares very little for anyone, at all, at
anytime. He sees all of humanity and its creatures as a giant game set up
solely for his own amusement. He doesnt really believe that vampires,
humans, mutants and the like are actually PEOPLE at all and thus has very
little consideration for their feelings. As they are not people- and
certainly not worth thinking about- he has no problems with wholesale
slaughter, just that its a bit of a waste of energy, and if every one
died where would his fun come from? As Sluagh, he enjoys the Hunt when it
is fair, and loves nothing more than running with his hound crying the
kill in the darkest night when theres no moon and it doesnt matter of
the kill is animal- or something all together different. He is
commanded by no one, and lives by his own laws and by NO ONE elses. He does not deliberately snub authority, he just believes
that it has nothing to
do with himself. He takes his pleasure- offered and sometimes not- where he wills, does what he wills where he wills and
has never met
anyone he feels worthy showing his belly to.
OBJECTIVES IN LIFE: Find amusement.
QUIRKS AND SPECIAL TRAITS:
Even though he will willingly kill without a
moments thought, he NEVER harms children or animals- unless he is on
the Hunt. When his blood is up nothing is sacred and most of what gets
in his way is fair game for bloodshed. Still, he kills as cleanly and
painlessly as he is able to- not an easy thing to do when the night is
running sweetly through your veins with a shadow baying beside you. He
always keeps his word, though what he says and what you hear can be
very different things. He never lies.
