Ronin is a Variant Feral Tielfing Sorcerer. An amnesiac who hides themself in the shadows, for fear of some unknown threat drawing closer. Keeping their head low has stalled the gaze of danger— but Ronin has decided it’s time for them to step into the light to learn who they truly want to be.

Physical Appearance

Ronin stands at about 5'1. He appears to be in his late teens/early twenties with short curly black hair, tawny brown skin peppered with dark scale-like freckles, runic tattoos kept under baggy clothes, and dusted fingers with black nails. They bear a large scar across their chest, akin to that of a stab wound. He wears loose and dark clothing, but always seems to wear a black and gold scarf.

Ronin repeats they're human— insistently so— but they don't quite fit that mold. They have slightly pointed ears and uncannily white eyes. On top of that, underneath is mop of hair are two sets of horns slowly growing out of his head. They have two large bat-like wings that extend from their back, and a long spiked tail as well.

Personality

With a bright smile, Ronin is remarkably friendly. He is mischievously playful and enjoys making new friends. To those he aligns himself with, he is fiercely protective of. Though he's always peering over his shoulder for some unknown threat, always triple checking doorways and halls when no one is looking.

Though he lacks basic knowledge of history, social structures, or even his own history, he is strangely wise for his background. He is constantly asking questions about the most basic of concepts, such as making bets, keeping watch, etc-- often taking the literal meaning of the phrase first. He has frequent headaches that seem to set on a more frustrated and short-tempered demeanor.

Ronin also exhibits embarrassment and frustration over the nature of his origin, resulting in playground lies to denote from the notion that he doesn't really understand the nature of the gifts he has.

History

When you sacrifice someone in the name of your god, they usually don’t get back up. This is not the case for Ronin, however. After being supposedly sacrificed in the name of some unstated god, this sacrifice refused to die and managed to escape with carnage left in their wake. With no memory of who they used to be, what their purpose was, or even what “all that weird stuff back there” was, the entity calling themselves Ronin has since escaped into the night to define for themselves who and what they want to be.

They have no memory of who or what they used to be, leaving a lot of unanswered questions about the nature abilities.

Game Time

Ronin joined the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company directly after the base was sieged upon by bounty hunters. Encountering P'ash, Lambda, Wiggler, and Lux, they begin to make small talk. P'ash lightly question Ronin if he was involved with the Red Daggers cult. When Ronin expresses uncertainty, this seems to raise suspicious from Lambda. Lux proceeds to invite Lambda and Ronin to the Galik fight club she attends. When Lambda expresses concern, correctly assuming that Ronin is potentially a newly awakened being, Lambda expresses the sentiment that he 'cannot deal with another liability.' This seemed to hit Ronin hard, Determined to prove to Lambda that they were not a liability, with Wiggler tagging along, they make their way to the Galik fight club to prove themselves.

Ronin was 1-hit KO'd.

A day or so later, Ronin encountered Wiggler again. Wiggler took notice that Ronin was continuing to eat food incorrectly, trying to eat an orange with the peal on. Using telepathy to communicate to Ronin, Wiggler was shocked when Ronin responded in return.

Mission 1 Blood, Sweat, and Gears

Ronin joined Ren, Chrysaor, Heli, Hummer, Richard Weedus on their first mission as they attended a Galik party to persuade nobles to support the Tempest Brothers. They encountered Iota impersonating Lambda, defeating them. They recruited 7 additional warforged, before bringing the body of Iota back to Lambda to be buried.
