Takeamada

[Takeamada]

Character Profile:

Appearance:

Takeamada is about 30 years of age, but looks older than he is.  Most figure him to be in his mid to late 40’s.  This works to his advance because he moves quick and with agility, and is very strong.  He is above average in looks has receding hairline of dark blond hair, green eyes that are not what you would see on most common humans, they seem more almond shaped with thick brows matching his hair color.  He stands 6’tall and is muscular.  He is in excellent shape and heath.  He does have more noticeable feature the stands out if seen with out a shirt.  He seems to have multiple welt type scars across upper back, but not what you would see from the marks of a whip.  These seem to be more singular and longer, made by something that was hard and long.  Because of an attack by a Nightmare, he now has scars from two broken ribs.  Due to an attack by Yew at mass, he has had two additional broken ribs and has 20 lash marks from a beat from Father Siegfried.

Work Description:

Takeamada is a born military man.  He can sleep outdoors as easily as in a bed.  When given a task, he takes to it immediately and does not waste time.  If given the opportunity he would work around the clock to complete a task, only stopping briefly for food and rest to regain his energy before resuming his work.  Being raised as he was, he was considered upper class to lower nobility.  He could move within the court circles with easy or just as well work in a shop or field as a laborer

Personality:

He upon first contact is shy and reserved, not saying much, watch and listening to all that’s around him.  If ordered to follow, he is dutiful and vigilant.  Will volunteer if he knows of a mission or if the opportunity arises.  If put in charge, he is tasked orientated and driven.  He expects nothing less the 100% of those under him.  Some say to the point of cruelty.  But he would not ask those under to do something he himself would not be will to, or has already done himself.  He does not allow those under him to be mistreated, unless it comes from him, and only if it is deserved.  He takes failure of his men’s action his own personal failure.  But when thing go well, he ensure that those that helped him achieve that, are also noticed.  One of his main quirks that most notice of Takeamada is his inability to relax and just have fun.  When going out to Inns or pubs with those he knows, he always seems to be standing guard over them ensuring they are cared for and protected.  Rarely is he seen out of armor, unless a “Task” requires it as in farming or the like.

When he does seem to have “free time”, he has been seen writing in books, but no one seems to know about what?

Background:

Takeamada was born in a small Village just north of the main city of Tokuno.  His father, a grandmaster bowcrafter-fletcher, made weapons for the army.  His mother, who died in childbirth, was a teacher and scribe.  Takeamada is his family name.  His given name is Hirk’oto, a name he hates because of his uncle of the same name.  His uncle was beheaded for treason to the regions lord.

Because of his fathers work, the monks of the area were charged with raising him, at the age of 15, they moved from Tokuno to the city of Trinsic, where his father enrolled him in school for paladins.  A few weeks after this, his father died while heading to the moongate, kill by Ogres.

Takeamada took his studies seriously as he knew that he was on his own.  He would study on his off time, never socializing with other, always putting duty and his studies first.

He met a fellow Paladin, Michael Hawk of Trinsic.  They were both duty bound and became close friends.  Michael Started teaching Takeamada the ways of the Virtues.  Which Takeamada took to heart!  In honor of his father, Takeamada choose archery as his fighting skill, shunning all other weapons.  

Reputation:

Takeamada is known for his building skills.  He was commissioned to build several guild houses and private homes.  Which is one of the reasons he was asked to come to Britain and help Squire Michael Hawk of Trinsic build a city library and study hall for the duchy.
He always repays a debit of kindness with kindness, and can keep a vendetta until death.

Motivation/goals:

He is trying to reestablish his family name back to what it once was.  Honor above all keeps him going.  His ultimate goal is to be a lord of any size area from hamlet to a large city.
