Full Name: Ardocc Iroqal
Other name: (None yet)
Race:: Human
Side: Neutral
Birthplace: Aroughs, Surda
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Birthday: October 17
Eyes: Brownish Yellow
Hair: Thick brown hair that is long and shaggy. It’s shoulder length and frames his usually shaved face. Known to tie a strip of cloth around his head to keep it back.
Weight: 170
Height: 6’2”
Magic User: Yes, has been informally taught in it from his travels with users, and they have taught him basics, and random things.
Preferred Weapon(s): He knows how to use a sword, but hasn’t had one in quite some time. Recently he has been using a very large Urgal longbow he acquired in the battle that his sword was lost in. It is pure black hardwood and nearly 5 foot long. It is as thick as his wrist, but where it lacks in perfect mobility is makes up in power and distance.
Personality: He is very driven and hard working. He has a very good time with others, but it is hard in these untrusting times. He’ll be the one to sit, smile, and listen; but he is thinking and won’t forget. He is energetic and good natured, enjoys a hard days work, but also needs time to unwind or will become bitter. He’s a friendly guy who has had a lot of growing up to do in a very short time during the past 2 years. He’s a bit wiser and more tactful, but it comes with being crossed and betrayed by people. He’s loyal to those who deserve it, and will stick up for those who do also. Sometimes overly trusting.
Appearance: He is slighter build, but none of it is anything less than muscle that the traveler possesses. He is white featured, but his skin is tanned from his sea days and the sun. This makes his eyes and smile all the more white in contrast to his hair also, which is usually all about.
He routinely wears a long white (or creme) colored shirt that falls to mid thigh, with rolled sleeves in the summer. This is now ragged and the sleeves grow shorter with every new rip. His leggings are a dark brown and are not loose; they resemble riding breeches in that they are almost skin tight and have black reinforcement on the thigh and crotch for the riding and farmworking. These also are thin with wear. Lastly are his black boots that extend to mid-calf, which are all but worn through. He enjoys going bare foot most of the time though.
Under certain circumstances he owns a short sleeved leather jerkin that has a high collar and fastens on his right side. He wears this when traveling and when he is not doing heavy labor. He also has a long brown leather coat for when the weather is rough. High collared and deep pocketed, It is very pirate-like, it was his father’s. He is wearing it quite a bit now that he is traveling.
Likes/Dislikes: He enjoys reading, he also used to be an sailor; owning his own boat until certain circumstances flung him into his current lifestyle. These days he seeks out solitude in nature and is playing around with the “mind sensing” his magic user friends tried to teach him. He doesn’t need to fight. In fact he doesn’t seek it out at all. Not to say he doesn’t enjoy winning, or stretching the mental muscles of combat. He quite dislikes those people who are negative, or depressive. Arrogance he won’t stand.
Strengths: Archery, patience, positive outlooks, smiling and finding joy in the small things, concentration
Weakness: Trusting too easily, pleasing too many people at once and forgetting himself, flaring temper, not a strong swordsman,
Family:
Mother: Marolei Iroqal
Father: Olbrode Iroqal
Sister: Kalywien Iroqal
His mother and sister are back home in Aroughs. His father died from disease mush like trench fever, which is typhus related, when Ardocc was 17 and had learned everything he needed to by that time. He works as a delivery service on his small ship to support his small family.
Not-So-Brief History: Ardocc’s father was trained by his father who was instructed by the varden, so he is well taught in those ways. Realizing that his family could never survive if they had no income he decided to take over the business that his father had left quite unfinished. His father had no immediate allegiance, but in his history there was involvement in the Varden. He spent time making deliveries by sea, until he lost his boat and began traveling with strangers, who became quite close. From them he perfected his combat, began learning intricacies of magic and the mind that his father never mentioned, and sent every cent he made back to a home that he hoped was not so affected by the turmoil as the places he had seen were. He learned more about the world and the effect of the politics going on. Though he hasn’t been immediately affected by anything the King has decreed, he knows it’s just a matter of time before there will be a clash. Still making deliveries, he is traveling across Alagaesia.
He’s not trying to be anything special, or a hero, but sometimes these things fall into your lap
.
Anything extra: Not sure if there’s a Rider application, but I’m just treating this like one, and sort of an update to my old one. Surprised the original was even accepted.
Anyways, as a rider I believe Ardocc could forge a very strong relationship with a dragon. He isn’t power hungry and searching for a dragon just to have one, therefore he won’t abuse the power. Naturally inquisitive, He’ll see it as an opportunity to explore the depths of his abilities and mind, and find his niche so that he can finally make a large difference in this land.
