-- Slayer[Character Armor]: Generally wears light armor in a very imperial-like fashion (appearance-wise, at least); often of low quality yet light and able to defend against arrows. His own physical hardness does not really require that he wears overly-defensive armor, and he prefers to keep to speed.[Character Weapon(s)]:Often equips himself with Dual-Blades. He uses these for many purposes; to parry, strike, and obviously, to kill.[Character Bio]:In the beginning, Vander was a Cyrodiilic Nord, born in the city of Leyawiin. His mother was a servant for the Count and Countess, and he was given his own room in the castle. He was raised moreso by the Countess than by his mother, and she quickly grew fond of him. She was a worldly woman with a strong sense of humanity and justice; and he honestly loved her far more than he had ever loved his mother. Eventually, his mother passed away from poisoning in her food. But no one ever wondered... why someone would bother... to poison a mere servant-girl, with no ties to others... not even ties to her own son. This didn't matter, though, in the end. The Countess wished to adopt him... to instill within him the rights to become the next Count, but he was a Nord, and the son of a servant-girl. It was not possible. And jealousy could not escape the gaze of the Count; who saw the young man as a threat to his family and his throne. He was sent on an errand for the Count... the first he had ever done for the man, in which he was drugged and thrown into the Nibenean. But he had not been a weak and impractical man. He managed to survive... somehow, and eventually ventured into the city of Chorrol, where he was contacted by a speaker of the Brotherhood. The murder was obvious and clear. As only a boy... his first victim... was the one who brought him into this world. And his second victim... he hoped, could eventually, be the Count.
However, he was not fortunate in this way. The Count died of old age along with the Countess, leaving a void within Leyawiin and within his life. He was sent to ruthlessly slaughter many other people as well, and eventually, his heart grew so hardened that it was almost as if taking out the trash, in his eyes. He took orders without question... and eventually, separated himself from all in the world -- even himself.

Vander is, for the most part, fair-skinned, with a muscular build and a very high stature. His hair is golden blonde; something common amongst his people, and his eyes are light green. He often bears facial hair though not always; though many of his features are nearly always hidden, simply from the fact that he is often wearing a hood or something along those lines. He is actually very different in terms of facial features than most Nords -- many people mistake him for an Imperial or even a Breton.
