Name: Duathion Aran'iâ (Meaning Shadow son, King of the void in Elven) Age: 213 (Approx 28-30 to a human) Race: Eldar (Space Elf) History: Duathion was the son of an Eldar Admiral within the Eldar Naval fleet and his favorite courtesan. It's not uncommon for the admiralty to have concubines and courtesans for themselves due to their high positions within the Eldar culture. Fleet admirals are akin to emperors of their own small kingdoms, after all. Courtesans and Concubines will do everything they can to have the child of an admiral simply because of the status that it brings them within Eldar society. Duathion was not his name when he was born, though, but a name he took when he was older. His birth name was El'Galadion, or Son of the Radiant Star, given to him by his mother. His father had nothing to do with the boy after conception. Duathion wanted for nothing in his youth, though. He was cherished by his mother and doted upon. He was given the highest education, given his father's stature. He was like a prince, even if the king didn't recognize him as a son. But it never sat right with the boy. The years passed as he grew, aging as slowly as all Eldar do, learning his lessons in school and building up to a position as a commander in the fleet. But deep inside him there was a wanderlust, a longing to go see more things throughout the galaxy. He was privy to some of the dealings of the fleet with other cultures and species, but that only wetted his appetite. He wanted to see it all, and not behind the confines of an Eldar cruiser, bound to the actions of the fleet as it moved through the stars. So one day he slipped out from under the gaze of his tutors, slipping through the halls of his home ship and to the docking bay where a large trade vessel had landed a few days ago for trade dealings. He slipped onto the ship as it was preparing for departure and stowed away aboard to boat. upon being found on the ship, Duathion, as he had now named himself, paid the captain a pretty price to keep it a secret that he was onboard. They parted ways at the next station they came to. Duathion used the money he had to buy a small ship of his own and set out amongst the stars to make his own name. At first, he worked to make a name as an explorer through the galaxy, faring out beyond the edges of known space to explore the borders, locating other planets and stable routes to other solar systems. But he soon found that it was quite fun, and profitable, to run salvage operations on derelict ships and hulks. He built up a small crew of people to work for him running operations. Soon after that he started working as smuggler as well, and it didn't take long for the thrill of a pirate's life to take hold of Duathion. And from there, he has spend decades prowling the cosmos looking for adventure and plunder through any means. Personality: Aran'iâ is like most Eldar in that he carries himself with a certain demeanor. Most would call him pompous or arrogant, but it is just the nature of his race. He can't help it any more than he can breathing. But in reality, when people know Duathion, he is a jovial soul, even if severe sometimes. He is daring and courageous, if overly stubborn at times. He loves challenges and adventure and seeks the next source of entertainment. He can, most definitely, be the life of the party when there's good times to be had. Appearance: Duathion Aran'iâ looks like what he was named after, the pale, radiant light of a star in the void. His pale white skin seems to radiate its own light even in the middle of complete darkness. His skin is blemished only by the small lines that cross his body in symetrical waves, a rare birthmark among the Eldar. It was said to be a sign of good luck among his elders. His hair matches the color of his skin, stark white like long sheeting snow cascading down over his shoulders when worn loose. His features are only contrasted by the coal black pupils set within his eyes. A piercing gaze that seems to bore straight through you, looking to unlock the secrets of your soul. Body Type: As an Eldar, Duathion is tall, standing to a height of 6' 10". The Eldar are not quite a "frail" as most would believe elves to be, though. Weighing in at 215 lbs, he is a healthy, lean, and athletic Eldar male. Weaponry: Besides his magnetic acceleration "gauss rifle" that he uses, Dauthion's favorite weapon is the custom, big bore Hand Cannon that he had custom made for himself. That's not his only weapon, though. He also carries a concealed, silenced hold-out pistol, as well as several concealed Eldar blades across his body. Clothing: When "on the job" Duathion wears a custom suit of armor that has a fully integrated life support system for use in the void of space. (That image also shows his "gauss rifle" as well). But when not actively pirating something, Aran'iâ tends to wear classy outfits. Suits and outfits that "befit" his Eldar heritage.
