Ooh me next, me next!
Name: Igun Sparthorn
Age: 50s
Race: redguard
Gender: dude
Skill: Long blade, block, acrobatics, mercentile, conjuration, restoration and alteration
Weaknesses: Well for one, he's completely blind. That's about it, though, he's a pretty sharp guy and hsi willpower usually prevents him from succumbing to temptations. I'd say his only other weakness is cynicism, he thinks the world is a hopeless transgression into oblivion, both as individuals and as a society.
Advantages: He's incredibly fast, both his body and his mind. He also has a lot of experience in life so he's pretty wise and lastly he's unmatched in acrobatics, total ninja if only he could see well enough to through projectiles.
Weapons: An old cutlass, no more no less. He conjures weapons, too, though.
Apparal: He still wears the red collared shirt and black pants from his pirating days, but typically wears a long, thick white coat these days as well. He is very simple, needing little but his walking stick.
History: The House of Black was a pretty famous pirate crew around 25 years ago. Igun was the first mate. Eventually a ship owned by a very rich merchent with a vendetta was sent out as bait, they took it and all got captured. Igun's life was spared among 7 others, but they cut out his eyes as a reminder. He was young and foolish, and sought revenge against the merchant but the merchant employed sorcerers as security guards so it was easier said than done. Igun trained under an illusionist, wasting all the savings he had left and working for countless hours to improve his skill so he could successfully sneak into the merchant's bed chamber. He found the merchant had grown old and sick and could not leave from his bed. He lived in acute, chronic pain and his skin looked like it was peeling off. He chose to spare the man's life knowing it murder would have been an act of mercy.
So, he moved on and settled down with a wife and a couple of kids, but then they got killed by ogres and now he's a blind, depressed old dude
Appearance: Scruffy gray beard, thick granite dreadlocks, two white glass eyes, and he's pretty dark skinned, too. He's not old fart looking or anything, he just looks like he carries a lot of weight around with him.

A man once asked the Buddha, "How does one escape the heat of the summer sun?"
And the Buddha replied, "Why not try crawling into the blazing furnace?"
