Name: Titanus Buteo Pythonidae
Age: 34
City: Aurora Valley
Appearance: When one sees the man known as Titanus, one would not know he is one of the most formidable warriors in the Valley. He stands 5 foot 9 and has a slight slouch in his back. He has jet black hair that reaches his shoulders and is never seen in any other way but slicked back. His pale skin is covered in peach colored scars and his blue piercing eyes stare into everything, not missing a single detail. His face carries a thin nose and thin lips, and he has a scar that crosses his right eye. Always seen with a cigarette, his brows are usually furrowed. Titanus dresses with elegance. He is always dressed in dark blue or black robes and resembles an off-duty samurai, however he is definitely not a fan of sandals. He prefers to wear black leather boots and drapes his pants over the boots. For work, he's always clad in a black robe made of a soft cloth with leather draping over it (think Anakain Skywalker-esque). While at work, he also blouses his pants in his boots. He wears a black leather belt that holds his Oriental katana. For work he also has a set of light metal armor, painted a shimmering white, and above his heart, he has a symbol of a soaring hawk. And over his armor, he drapes a black cloak.
History: Titanus has always been a lucky man who has been on. For as long as he can remember, he has been on his own. He has never known his parents and he has been raised by good Samaritan who found baby Titanus on his doorstep. Living in a tiny farm and raised by the old man, who treated the young kid as his own, Titanus grew up to be a learned man. The old man, who he called Grandpa, taught him multiple languages and cultures. He was named Titanus by the man who wanted the boy to grow up to be a world renowned man. He learned how to read and write as well as draw as a kid and had aspirations to be an artist and see the world. However, when his adopted grandfather passed away due to old age, Titanus, then a fourteen year old boy, packed a small bag and left the farm. He stumbled into Aurora Valley and started his stay there as a homeless boy begging for food.
The growing boy found himself the target of school boys on their way to school and learned to defend himself very quickly. Until one day a blacksmith saw the dirty boy and took him in. The man, Amada, and his wife, Aina, were incapable of having kids and took in the homeless boy as their child. They sent him to school, where the young Titanus excelled with the teachings he received from his grandfather.
Outside of school, the young boy gave up the arts and began to learn the craft of swordmaking from his adopted father. Amada, seeing the potential in his young boy, began to teach Titanus swordsmanship skills and techniques. And upon learning these new skills, Titanus did what he did best, he read about it.
After reading about Aurora Valley's history and the bloody history of the region, Titanus waited for him to be done with school before taking off and seeing the world, learning more and more techniques. He began to sell himself as a mercenary and a killer for hire.
For years, he roamed around, getting hired for odd jobs, until he walked into Deproelior and found himself as an instructor for the army there. He built up a name as being the youngest instructor in the Deproelior army. Titanus made an impression with his superiors but when they found out he was from Aurora Valley, he was ambushed by his students. In a fight that would make him a legend, Titanus fought off ten men without drawing his blade. And, using a custom made katana, he finished off the leader of the ambush.
Knowing that he could no longer stay there, Titanus ran back to Aurora Valley where old schoolmates recognized him and he was granted amnesty there. After resting for a few days in an old schoolmate's guestroom, Titanus looked up his old adopted family, only to find out that Amada had passed away and Aina was sick. On her deathbed, she asked Titanus to make something with his life and left the living realm.
Titanus wandered the streets of Aurora Valley for several days, lost in thoughts until he stumbled upon sign, asking for men to join the army and he did. His skills quickly came to shine as instructors quickly promoted Titanus before he finished training. Becoming a leader of two platoons, the young man gained a nickname; the "Hunting Hawk." Government officials recognized the potential in the young warrior and just weeks later, he stands awaiting news of him receiving another promotion.
Personality: An educated man, Titanus prefers to use his head more than his blade. He is a calm, calculating man that keeps a stone face in even the most dangerous situations. A man who can see the line from point A to point B without feeling anything. He is a guy who prefers to read a book than do his job, but when he goes to work, people fear the day he comes after them. He is someone who's reputation precedes him. At home, he is a calm, warm, kind man who jokes with friends and is known for his dry sense of sarcastic humor.
