Name: Wildfire Magni
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Race: Human (east)
Class/Rank: Former knight of Enos, currently brigand
Abilities: Knowledge of magic beyond his years. He cannot actually cast magic, but he knows the ins and outs of it from 'borrowing' his older brother's books from time to time.
Excellent marksmanship.
Personality: Often laid back, overconfident in his bow skills and somewhat 'lazy' compared to other members of his family, Wildfire, or 'Wild,' as he's often called is hard to figure out. Most people merely assume he's a jerk and don't spend time with him. Those that do, however, see that he can be just as smart, funny and witty as the stuffed shirts that bore him, if not more so. He is also a little shy around girls.
Appearance: Aside from a set of brown leather armour that he rarely takes off, Wild also wears a white hooded cloak that sports red triangles along the hem. How he manages to stay out of sight with that on is beyond anyone's knowledge, but it is an interesting piece.
Aside from that, Wildfire's only interesting feature is his crop of green hair. He sometimes has a little green stubble, but keeps that shaved off whenever he can. His parents are both powerful magi, which may explain why he has such oddly coloured hair. His sapphire blue eyes are always calm, no matter the situation.
Weapon/Magic: Standard issue longbow. It's nothing special, but it does pin nine out of ten potential targets well enough. He occasionally uses a shortsword, but his skills with the bow usually mean that he doesn't have to. He avoids magic users like they're covered in ants.
History: Wildfire was born into the prestigeous Magni family. Nobody was completely sure how the Magnis got so important, just that they had a lot of allies in high places and a lot of land. However, unlike pretty much everyone else in the entire history of his family, he had no magical potential whatsoever. His elder brothers, who were twins, could use fire in ways that hadn't even been invented. His younger sisters, who were also twins, had already begun studying wind magic and were essentially the only ones who treated him well, since his mother had died while giving birth to his sisters.
As was expected, Wildfire joined up with the Knights of Enos, where he excelled in their ranged weapons devision, despite the harsh conditions of his teacher. He even beat out some of the older soldiers! Of course, that was when he started to get overconfident...
On one warm summer's day, Wildfire was simply relaxing against a wall instead of joining in on training.
"Why aren't you training?" his teacher, who was an archer of considerable skill asked as he walked up to the rogue with just a hint of anger in his voice.
"Why should I? I'm already the best, you know that," was his terse reply. Now, that got his teacher riled up something fierce!
"Well, if you ever want to be as good as Enos..."
Wildfire, true to his name, snapped at this remark. "Enos Enos Enos! You go on about him like he's a saint!"
"Young man, if you do not comply..."
"And there's another thing! I'm sick of taking orders from you! " Of all the times for him to rebel, it had to be now. Without another thought, he grabbed his bow and a quiver of arrows. That was the last anybody saw of Wildfire for a while. An AWOL Magni? Nobody even considered it!
A few days later, rumours of Wildfire began to circulate, that he was living in the wilds quite comfortably, but nobody has confirmed these rumours. What is known, however, is that Wildfire still has to explain his actions.
((That should du it.))
