Appearance
Rhenarix stands tall with matte silver scales that look like weathered steel. He wears a tattered imperial officer's cloak over simple, dark grey monk wraps. His eyes are a piercing, icy blue that seems to smoke when he uses his breath weapon. When he manifests his astral form, four shimmering, semi-transparent silver arms extend from his shoulders, crackling with faint blue energy.
Mannerisms
He has a habit of clicking his teeth together when he is impatient. He rarely looks people directly in the eye, instead watching their hands or their stance for signs of aggression.
Personality
He is quiet and observant, often standing on the periphery of a room. He has a dry, gallows humor common to career soldiers. While he is fiercely capable in a fight, he carries a heavy exhaustion in his posture, the weight of fifteen years of 'just following orders.' He values competence but detests authority.
Ideals
Self-Determination. No one should be forced to hold a spear for a king they never met. I will choose my own battles from now on.
Bonds
I still carry the dog tags of my squad mates who didn't survive the Siege of Oakhaven. I owe it to them to do something better with my life than they could.
Flaws
I am prone to fits of cold rage when I see soldiers bullying civilians. My first solution to any problem is violence, even when I know it is the wrong one.
Quirks
Background
For fifteen years, Rhenarix was the Imperial Vanguard's finest living weapon. He didn't need a blade to clear a trench. He used his spectral silver arms to tear through reinforced doors and enemy lines alike. He was told he fought for order, but after a decade of seeing the 'order' result in burnt villages and displaced families, the silver scales of his conscience began to tarnish. He was a silver dragonborn serving a bronze empire that didn't care about the lives it consumed. A year ago, during the Siege of Oakhaven, he was ordered to execute a group of defectors. Instead, he manifest his astral visage, terrified his commanding officer into a retreat, and simply walked away into the woods. He spent months in a remote mountain monastery, not seeking enlightenment, but seeking a way to quiet the sound of screaming in his head. He learned to channel his military discipline into the Way of the Astral Self, turning his killing tools into a means of self-defense. Now, he wanders as a freelancer. He knows how to kill, and he knows how to survive, but he has no idea how to build something lasting. He hopes to find a way to bring peace to the regions he once helped destabilize, but his first instinct is still to reach for a throat when a problem arises. He is a man trying to outrun his own shadow, even as that shadow manifests as literal arms of light.
