Appearance
Fang is a tall, lean dragonborn with deep charcoal scales and subtle copper coloring along his jawline, throat, and fingertips. His lower canines protrude slightly when his mouth is closed, and his grin exposes a crowded row of sharp teeth that makes even friendly laughter look threatening. He wears battered leather armor beneath a dark hooded coat, with a rapier at his hip and several daggers hidden throughout his clothing. His voice is normally a dry, amused rasp, but when angered his breathing becomes loud and deliberate, each inhale carrying a faint metallic hiss before he speaks.
Mannerisms
Fang tilts his head and bares his teeth whenever someone makes a serious statement, as though tasting whether it deserves to be believed. He taps the guard of his rapier while listening, pauses before delivering an insult, and deliberately inhales loudly when he is angry so everyone knows they have his full attention.
Personality
Fang loves being sneaky, but he loves being noticed just enough to make people wonder whether he was ever there. He plays tricks for profit, amusement, and the simple pleasure of making confident people lose their tempers. He is sharp-minded, observant, and theatrically cruel, often delivering an insult with a smile before quietly arranging the consequences. Fang enjoys rage baiting almost as much as he enjoys escaping the aftermath.
Ideals
Freedom. No law, oath, god, king, or friend owns Fang. The only true victory is making everyone else believe that his choice was their own.
Bonds
Fang owes his first criminal contact a life debt after being rescued from an execution arranged by a betrayed employer. He intends to repay that debt someday, though his idea of repayment may involve taking over the entire criminal network.
Flaws
Fang cannot resist provoking anyone who appears calm, respected, or morally certain. He mistakes restraint for weakness and often escalates situations simply to see how far he can push someone. He is also convinced that betrayal is inevitable, so he frequently betrays allies first and calls it prudence.
Quirks
Background
Fang grew up in a dragonborn enclave where strength and honor were treated as public performances. He quickly discovered that a whispered insult, a false rumor, or a stolen purse could control a room more effectively than any display of muscle. He began as a lookout for smugglers, then became a burglar and confidence trickster, developing a particular talent for provoking people into reckless decisions. Fang does not merely enjoy getting away with crimes. He enjoys watching people ruin themselves while insisting that they are still in control. His reputation grew after he orchestrated a warehouse robbery by convincing three rival gangs that each of the others had betrayed them. The resulting violence left Fang with the valuables, a network of grateful criminals, and several very determined enemies. He now travels as an assassin and professional nuisance, taking contracts when the coin is good and creating trouble when it is more entertaining. His dragonborn heritage gives him an imposing presence, but Fang prefers to use it as misdirection, letting others focus on his size and teeth while his hands work unseen.
