w00t new member! I be hoping this be good and acceptable.
Name: Dagorian
Age: 30-ish
Height: 6' 1"
Build: Wiry, gaunt.
Powers:
Uno: Twisting Strike: Once a katar is within a foe, he can twist the blade and rupture their organs, possibly breaking their bones as well.
Dos: Smite the Infidel: When fighting the true enemies of God, heretics, blasphemers, and the undead, his eyes and hands burn with holy flame. This withering blue flame eats through the flesh, bone, and spirit of the depraved. The flame can be transferred to weapons of Dagorian or his allies.
Three: No name as of yet: Dagorian can do all sorts of mad acrobatic things. The Matrix-esque, laws-of-physics-are-for-losers kind.
Four: Inquisitor: He can always tell when someone is lying to him, directly or by omission. His very presence makes telling lies difficult, and he can compel people to tell the truth. This is, however, very... unpleasant... for the victim, so he only does it as a last resort.
Looks: Dagorian has been traveling the world for the past several years, and it shows. His face is weathered, and his eyes have a constant look of tiredness in them. Behind this tiredness, however, is a constant hawk-like searching for evil and blasphemy. He is fastidious, usually clean-shaven, and his brown habit is kept clean. He lives austerely, with no desire for any material thing (or at least, he hides this desire very well)
History: At the age of seven, Dagorian joined a Christian monastery that emphasizes physical excellence, vigilance for evil, and the ability to deal with that evil mentally or with violence. At the age of 25, it is customary for each initiate to travel the world for ten years, rooting out evil and perfecting martial skills. Dagorian has become very skilled with two katar (Indian punching dagger, google it if you want a pic). During the "rooting out evil" part of his journey, Dagorian was bitten by a vampire. He suppresses his vampiric instincts and urges for the most part, but when they emerge (usually as a result of pain), he becomes more feral and wild than normal vampires.
Race: Human/Vampire (Feral)
Friends: None yet in Blood City, but he has connections with his home monastery if he is ever in too much trouble.
Weapons: Two katar, which are on spring-type devices in his sleeves, so they can pop out as needed, and a quarterstaff, which he usually uses as a walking stick.
And there you go. Here's a pic of some katar:
