(RP Character) Chase Angevin

Instructions

Chase Angevin: Gender - Male Age - 19 Species - Hooman :> Family - Parents, deceased; siblings, deceased; grandmother is alive and they have an odd relationship Occupation - Soldier Sexuality - Straight Appearance - Chase has dirty blonde, medium length hair usually tied back in a ponytail. He’s got an athletic build, and stands at 6’3”. His eyes are a light green, and his skin is tan from long hours spent outside. He has a variety of small scars from various battles, though his largest scar came from being stabbed with a fork by a fellow guard (long story). He also has an ever so slightly limp from a broken leg that didn’t heal quite right. Most often, he can be found wearing his guard uniform: gray tabard with the kingdom crest, cloak, and gloves. When he’s not on watch, he wears loose fitting, light, loose tops with brown leggings and black leather boots. His clothes are all fairly worn, but he takes care to maintain a good appearance. Being rather poor, Chase does not own a coat, so regardless of being on duty or not, he’s almost always wearing the gray militia-issued cloak. Personality - Chase generally good natured, and loves cracking jokes, though he occasionally has a sharp tongue. He’s incredibly loyal and thoughtful, despite usually appearing dismissive or nonchalant. He loves telling wild stories and going on adventures that generate said wild stories. He may cause a lot of chaos, but he does respect the line between harmless fun and things that will get you fired. He loves his job, and won’t do anything that will jeopardize that. Skills and Weaknesses - An excellent swordsman, Chase is practically undefeated when it comes to dueling. However, despite his skill with a sword, his marksmanship with a bow or musket is terrible. He’s quick at thinking on his feet, and has great instincts. He’s also a pretty good liar, and prides himself on being clever with words. However, this only extends to speaking, as Chase is completely illiterate. Backstory - Born to a poor family in a rural village, Chase’s parents were blacksmiths. He grew up helping his father with the forge swords, and as a result, quickly became a talented swordsman and fencer. As his 13th birthday gift one year, his father made one for him. However, tragedy struck later that year when disease swept through the small village. Only a fraction of the town made it. Chase, luckily or tragically, was the only one of his family to make it. Unable to stay there any longer, he stayed with his grandmother for two years until he looked old enough to enlist. His job as a solider was refreshing to him. The adventure took his mind away from the past, and with his sword he could honor his family’s legacy. He initially deployed to some of the country’s borders, but following an injury, he was deemed best for the “easier” job of being a guard in the capital. He wasn’t pleased with this duller line of work, but perhaps that means he has time to explore a bit… Fun Facts - • Chase’s favorite drink in the world is tea. Despite being a soldier, he’d somehow never gotten into the pub scene. • He can actually do math despite not being able to read. • He’s just sliiiiightly wary with nobles, as a few he’d encountered had been two-faced and spoiled • favorite color is teal! He doesn’t have anything in that color though ;;; • Dog person • Spends most of his hours on duty polishing his sword
