About Kheviel Nightfeather
Kheviel was original a character I created on a MUD, into the guild of assassins. The assassins were known as 'merchants' more properly, as a 'cover' for the truth. He was actually a bit of an experiment in trying out new things on the MUD when multiplay was allowed. Little did I know the things in store. Unless I crewed up majorly, few knew the truth about Kheviel, and that he was mine. Nightfeather was an 'adopted' name, as he forsake his family's name, wanting to distance himself from them. Hew as saucy, smartassed, ready with a quip and never afraid to let someone have it when it came down to it. In fact, he was pretty prone to acts of stupid, including trying to kill thigns he really shouldn't have tried. In the end I had to get rid of him, which was really sad cause he'd become an awesome character who was fun to play as.
Well, that's where Gaia came in. Why not take him as an OC< and give him a place to run? This expanded, as I let his 'Gaia OC self' become a part of the Edelsteine shop, and he was tweaked around into his TRUE OC self. While he may be playing host to one fo the dragon kings he's still himself. You'll find out how he is now below.
Kheviel NightfeatherHair: Tawny brown/light brown
Eyes: Hazely golden
Race: Elf
Height: 5'11"
Complexion: Light
Build: Lean but musculed
Personality: Relaxed, treats peopel fairly and honorably, unless they're a known criminal who's done wrong against the world or innocents. He cannot tolerate those who use, harm, or manipulate others, or cause harm to society. He is an assassin by trade, but he only kills those who've done wrong by the law - or his own beleifs when the law does not exist (or is warped beyond all recognition). He will refuse any contract for innocents, or for those he does not wish to deal with - those who have not yet met the quota to deserve death by his hand.
When on his own he is often humble, relaxed, although snarky and sarcastic at times. To the opposition and those he hunts, his reputaiton is an ice-cold, arrogant and cocky man who cares little for others. If anything, this is far frm the truth in his personal life, but only a play and cover so others can't read him well.
Bio: Kheviel was orphaned due to his father's death under unfair imprisonment, and his mother by robbers. He lived on the streets, making do with what eh could in honorable work to get by, and doing what he could to survive in the wilds outside town. When he came across a woman being beaten and robbed he lashed out, striking the attacker and killing him before he could kill the woman - or Kheviel. He happened to be noticed by a member of the assassins, and it was through this he was offered the chance to learn.
He made his point well known however that he did not believe in killing just anyone, and a deal was made after testing his skill - he would take only the jobs that suited him, if he would help train others. With little else to turn to, and the potential threat of the law on him for the 'murder' he committed (a justified death in his eyes for trying to kill an innocent woman and steal from her), he took such an offer. It gave him the skill to mette his own justice on those who harmed others for their own gain - and when the opportunity arose to striek at the lord of he land himself - the man who had been part and parcel fo his father's imprisonment and death - he took the chance, despite the risks. He did succeed, almost managing to get himself killed twice in the process of trying to get to the lord but succeeded at last, and helped relieve the lands of the oppression that had been bearing down for years.
Unfortunately, this left him in a spot, as more then a few people had seen him, and been able to identify him. With a quick word to his own 'bretheren' he made haste in departing, leaving them for both their and his safety, and heading out to wander the world.
