Appearance
Ignis stands seven feet tall, covered in thick crimson scales that shimmer like cooled lava. He wears half plate that has been modified into a segmented harness to allow for maximum hip rotation and high kicks. His hands and shins are perpetually wrapped in soot stained linen. Smoke constantly curls from his nostrils, and his muscular build is that of a heavy weight kickboxer rather than a traditional brawler.
Mannerisms
Ignis often shadowboxes during long rests or conversations. He has a habit of checking the structural integrity of every door frame he passes through, wondering if it could support his weight in a clinch.
Personality
Ignis is intensely disciplined and views combat as a form of sacred geometry. He speaks little, preferring to let the rhythm of his breathing and the heat of his skin convey his mood. He has no interest in weapons, believing that tools are for those whose bodies are incomplete.
Ideals
Discipline is the only thing that separates a warrior from a beast. Physical perfection is the highest form of worship.
Bonds
I carry the weights of my former master, who was the first person to teach me how to harness my rage. I will never let a fellow pit fighter suffer in poverty.
Flaws
I am prone to tunnel vision in a fight, often ignoring secondary threats to break the one enemy I have grappled. I find it difficult to respect anyone who cannot best me in a physical contest.
Quirks
Background
Born into a clan that prized the study of draconic magic, Ignis was an outlier who found solace in the physical arts of the arena. He was recruited by a traveling circuit of pit fighters where he developed a unique style of combat that combined draconic strength with the precise strikes of a master kickboxer. He learned to channel his internal fire into his physical endurance, effectively turning himself into an immovable object. After several years as a champion, he grew bored of staged matches. He sought the companionship of a bear totem spirit, finding that the animal's relentless resilience mirrored his own philosophy of physical perfection. Now he travels the world seeking the most dangerous foes to test his clinch and his fire. He has no need for a blade when his knees can shatter shields and his breath can melt steel.
