Vadaths eyes are a lifeless steely gray and his hands rough and greatly calloused from many hours of swinging his greatsword.

Personality

Vadath takes great pride in his strength and battle prowess. Vadath does not typically run from a fight even if the odds seem stacked against him. Do to his mercenary training and a lifeitme of battle he has some mind for unit tactics and setting up a favorable battlefield. He can come off as a bit uncouth or uncivilized at times, and he usually is a man of few words. Off the battlefield he is quiet and composed but once battle has started his demeanor changes to animalistic like furry. He is loyal to those he fights besides and honors the friendships that he has forged in battle.

History

Vadaths mother gave birth to him on the side of the road with her dying breaths after her village was ritually slaughtered. The slaughter fell on a moonless night and was a ritual killing for the God Nerull. Those that committed the ritual slaughter took their own lives as well, offering their own souls to their god. A passing mercenary company, known as The Band of the Hawk, found the new born and a cleric by the name of Sella took pitty on him and adopted him as her own. Sella herself was a cleric of Bahamut that travelled with the company. Trained by Captain Ellric of the Hawks Raider corp within the company all he knew was battle. Sella and Ellric he viewed as his parents. He began fighting in the company at the age of 7 and has been fighting on the battlefield since. Around the age of 16 durning a particular bloody battle The Band of the Hawk was all but whipped out. His pseudo mother and father, Sella and Ellric, we’re killed by the enemies leader. He himself was believed to be dead and yet he awoke a few days after the conflict amongst a pile of corpses. He searched the battlefield and found his parents bodies and buried them together. He took the shattered remains of his fathers greatsword, a once magnificent blade now nothing more than a charred hilt, in the hopes of surpassing his fathers strength. Though Vadath does not know the true origins of his necrotic abilities he himself has been surrounded by death his entire life. Essentially being born from a corpse and he himself has been killing his entire life. He is an unknowing agent of Nerull. He has had many close calls with loosing his own life but so far has been able to persevere. He is not afraid of death itself and has no fear of dying in battle. As a mercenary he takes all kinds of jobs from a bodyguard to even murder is the coin is enough. All he cares for is to surpass his father's strength and restore his father's prized sword. If a few more bodies need to made to achieve those goals then so be it.

Weapons 

His main weapon is his greatsword though more like a massively heavy hunk of iron than an actually “cutting” weapon. As well as the handle of his pseudo fathers great sword that he carries around hoping to have it reforged to its former glory. He chose this fighting style because at the age of 7 he trained with a full size sword because like his father said “There are no child size swords in a mercenary company.” As he grew his so did his choice in swords so that he could maintain his fighting style.
