Name: Ceblair T’il
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Birthday: 11th February
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics:
Scars - The most notable are two scars on his face - one striking through his upper left eyebrow and the other on the bottom of his right cheek. Besides these two, he has plenty more scars, which are located on his back - creating a great X across it, and another striking a horizontal line across his chest. Both of which would only be seen if he wasn’t wearing anything on upper part of his body.
Prosthetic arm - During one of his training sessions a sparring match went horribly wrong, and he lost his left arm in pre process. He was adamant about continuing his training despite this tragedy, and as a result was given a prosthetic arm.



Personality:
Regular:
Ceblair is a reserved man, usually keeping to himself. He isn’t very fond of people butting into his problems and tries to most politely decline, although with some people this effort would still be futile. He is mostly a lone wolf, treading the world by himself, however, he won’t turn down an occasional meeting, as it can provide some useful information. The training at the swordsman school was strict, as such, some of the strictness and formality is still in his veins. It wouldn't be unusual to see him bow out of courtesy. The young man was training his sword skills for many years, until he discovered his magic potential and it took him even longer to finally make the decision to grasp it and become a mage. He is still unsure about the decision, but tries his best to give it all he’s got to become a protector of those who need it and make his instructors proud.

On occasion he may seem on the colder, distanced side. This behaviour, however, is just a side effect of being brought up in a place, where emotions were seen as something unwanted, something that would taint his training progress; along with his direct means of speaking. Although, as he matured, he gained his own outlook and opinions on the world. During that time he also discovered his affinity for wind magic. For the most part nothing really changed after discovering this fact, but he did ultimately decide to travel the world and become a full-fledged mage, a protector of those who need it. Be it regular folk or comrades.

Once one actually gets through his tough outer shell and his fear, one will discover a broken man, who lost those dear to him, but still somehow manages to find good and beautiful things in everyday life. His strange fondness for nature, for example. He isn't a green a thumb or into taking care of plants himself, but he finds certain... something, when he's just quietly watching them sway in the breeze, thinking.

Combat:
Ceblair wouldn’t really consider himself a natural leader or a leader, period, but he’s always up for calling occasional shots, if it's needed. If he were forced into the role, however, he would do his best to choose the plan of actions that would take the least victims or sacrifices. He never blindly charges into the fray on his own, without thinking ahead and thinking about the consequences his actions may have.

As a follower, he will just keep to himself, unless he's travelling with somebody with whom he happens to have a closer relationship. However, he will not stay deliberately quiet, if someone else attempts to strike a conversation with him - which still depends on the topic.
After a successful job or battle, Ceblair won't turn down an offer for a drink or two. If he drinks, he drinks just enough to not get him over the edge. What happens if he does? Well, he just speaks his mind openly and even more directly.


Likes:
Working out/Training - Ceblair’s not completely obsessed with becoming the most muscular man of all time, but if he doesn’t practice his sword skills at least once a day, he feels like he’s slacking and that he might do it more often than he’d like.
Adoring nature - One of things that wouldn’t be obvious to a person, as he mostly keeps to himself, but if one knows him better, they’d notice him sometimes staring at the mighty trees or fragile flowers.
Friendly rivalry - Ceblair’s always open a to new challenge and what better way is there to push your limits even further?

Dislikes:
People butting into his issues - Ceblair highly prefers to solve his own problems by himself and will keep declining help of others, even if they don't mean ill will, especially when it comes to his past.
Extremely loud music and crowds - Ceblair is fine with both crowds and music, in fact, he occasionaly drops a few jewels to travelling musicians, but he really isn't fond of groups of people yelling for no reason or loud parades. For this reason he doesn't frequent any big festivals.
Killing for no reason - This is one of things that just rub Ceblair the wrong way. It's just simply against his nature to kill anything or anybody, unless it has to be done in self-defense. It would still pain him to do it, but at least he would be able to live with himself.

Motivations:
Repay the favour - After his parents died, Ceblair was taken in by a swordsman school, thus, he'd like to repay the favour by protecting the world that gave him a chance to live.
Protector - Since Ceblair's life was quite filled with various bumps, he'll do everything in his power to prevent such tragedies from happening to others, as he is well aware of the pain that would come after.
Refine the skill - The main reason Ceblair even left the school instead of becoming an instructor, was to hone his magic potential into something of great power, one day.

Fears:
Not strong enough - Ceblair dreads the day, when he will be powerless to do anything, no matter how much time he spends training and getting stronger.
Attachment - Since Ceblair lost a fair bit of his loved ones, he is somewhat hesitant to make a connection with a person too deep. Applies to both friendship and romance.
Failure - The expectations at the swordsman school were high, but real life is about something different. When Ceblair picks up a job, he expects to finish it properly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live with himself.

Height: 1.85m
Weight: 88kg - counting the prosthetic arm
Hair: Short, dark black hair
Eyes: Bright, yellow eyes
Skin Tone: Light, but slightly on the paler side

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Ceblair is a slim and a fairy tall individual. He had to watch his weight pretty much his whole life, so as to not mess with his training. However, later on the weight of his prosthetic arm made it difficult for him to continue on, but he got used to it over time. In term of his head-region he sports short, dark black hair, that still sometimes finds its way into his eyes. He has yellow eyes, that seem like they're silently judging you. On his face he also has two scars - "mementos" - from his training. One striking through his left eyebrow and second on the bottom of his right cheek.

Ceblair's regular attire may attract a few eyes, but in a world, where extravagant is usual and looking plain is unsual, he blends in quite well. His regular attire consists of mostly white, dark grey and yellow. He wears dark grey pants with white accents on the bottom and white boots with some fur on their back. His top is mostly dark grey without sleeves, but also tight around his chest, becoming more loose towards bottom. The top also features a white trim. Over the top he wears a long coat, that is almost always left to flutter about. It sports holders for knives to use in dire situations on it sides and is coloured white with yellow trim. There is only one sleeve, however - as it wouldn't exactly fit around his prosthetic - with black bottom to it and yellow trim 'round it.  The coat also sports a hood with fur trimming, which Ceblair sometimes uses, if he feels like he doesn't want to be disturbed. In terms of accessories, he only wears a single white glove on his right hand with a silver star crest on its back.
Where is left arm used to be is now a prosthetic limb, after an accident happened. Its base is black, with almost talon-like fingers, however, Ceblair covers it with white cloth with black accents on top of it, so that it isn't THAT obvious.

He can be seen wearing different pants or shoes from time to time, but he usually just resides to his regular attire, as it is just easier to deal with his prosthetic with it, as it was modelled with it in mind.
