Noah Xander

Name: Noah Xander
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Birthday: 10/04
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: Two very visible scars, one across his right eye from the top of his brow to his cheek bone and another on his left cheek but slightly shorter.

Personality: Outside of battle, Noah is a sarcastic and sometimes childish, making fun of people for slight things when aggravated or bored and never takes most things seriously. His mind wanders frequently and every now and again, a question would need repeated or he would miss something important. However besides his faults he is always a loyal friend and would act to advise his allies and accomplices in times of need or just if they require slight help. He is always one to help even in minor cases but can misunderstand a situation quickly. Yet he always tries to enjoy a situation no matter how awkward or how bad it can get.  He will often try and lighten the mood around people while keeping what he feels locked up, trying to be strong all the time so that others can’t see how bad he is underneath.

He is fairly over protective, especially over the younger members of his team, seeing himself as the older and slightly more respectable one, given a chuckle or two at that sort of statement since he’s probably more childish than they are, he still feels obligated to help and protect them if they need it.

When inside of battle, Noah is reckless, fierce and always tries to be the first one into the fray and the last one to leave. He prefers to tackle a problem head on and cannot do stealth to save himself. Discretion is not necessarily in his vocabulary.  Under leadership he can get a job done if given to him carefully and ensured he listened twice just to make sure he understood it properly. He isn't one to ask questions apart from one; which is "When does the fun begin?"

He prefers an honourable fight but he will not shrug off multiple enemies or bad odds if they are stacked against him. He will never leave a team mate behind and will fight as long as he can stand given the situation. Unless he is ordered to retreat, which is the only time he will ever back away from a fight if one was initiated. When it comes to saving the lives of his comrades and his own life, he will always choose theirs or innocent life. Too often he has seen selfish people run for their own hide and leave innocent people to burn, he tries to never leave people in that sort of state. He always aims to disable an opponent rather than to kill, it is not in his nature to eliminate a target as he sees it as unnecessary violence and would try to keep his opponents alive as best he can so they can face the proper authorities.

As a leader he has next to no experience as one and just follows his instincts, he trusts his team to do what they do best and if they can come up with a strategy that sounds good to the others then he'd happily see how it plays out and expect people to improvise should something go wrong. He knows not every plan is perfect and that the strength of the individual and the team is to see how they overcome those obstacles that get in the objectives way.

 
Likes:

• Honesty, he believes that if someone can just be honest with everyone then things would get on smoother.
  

• Animals, he enjoys being around animals. They act as great companions when no-one else is around and give Noah a sense that he's not alone. Apart from snakes, he could do without them.
  

• Reading, he can always enjoy a good story, either told by a fellow guild member through their words on a page or by their own mouth, he's always one for a good tale. It keeps his mind open to new ventures outside of the guild that he can always go on later on, it's part of what keeps his mind distracted when people are trying to talk to him.
  

• Food and drink. Every good bit of fun begins at dinner or something involving food and a bit of a drink given the occasion, he's not an alcoholic, but he can hardly say no when given a challenge.
  

Dislikes:

• Cowards, he dislikes them as he sees them as unable to fight for what they believe in, he can understand if they do not want to fight any longer if they have already tried and do not want humiliation again, but he cannot stand those that do not stand for themselves in the end.
  

• Manipulators, he detests the fact they can pull peoples minds like puppeteers and get away with it, he hates it when they put peoples lives on the line for their own games and he tries hard to not be a pawn in anybody else's games as its someone else's life, not the manipulator's own.
  

• Injustice, he does not like how those that commit heinous crimes or those in power can get away with almost anything, he only wants what is fair for everyone and for the rules to apply for everyone and not just those in a higher stature.
  

Motivations:

• He wants to become stronger so that he can protect those that he cares for as he failed people close before and vowed never to let it happen again.
  

• He wants to see that justice is done and kept so that he knows he has done the right thing by his own morals and he is willing to accept the consequences if he is wrong.
  

• He wishes to see all the world has to offer, travelling, adventure, the wonders etc. All to expand his horizons and understanding of the world.
  

Fears:

• Fear of Isolation, he can go a day without company at most but he cannot stand prolonged absences it makes him uneasy and anxious that he's been abandoned again.
  

• Fear of Snakes, he cannot stand the sight of snakes. Just can't them as one had attacked him while he was younger.
  

• Fear of loss, he does not want to see anyone he cares about die or leave the guild or just him in general.
  

General Appearance


Height: 6ft
Weight: 168lbs
Hair: Dark brown, short and fluffy
Eyes: Greenish blue
Skin Tone: Light
Appearance: He is a fairly average build, got a bit of muscle but it's not showing profusely from him. He wears a sword on his belt on his right hand side, a pair of blue loose fitting jeans with unfastened black ghillie shirt.

Given that the ghillie shirt is loose fitting it makes it easier to cast magic and move fluidly through combat without having the tightening restrictions. His sword was handed to him by his mentor as a sign of completing his training. He tries not to build himself up too much physically as in his mind it only slows him down if he is made of bulk and muscle, he is stronger than he looks without it.
