Goblins, eh? Don't they worship Lamashtu? It was one of her unholy symbols I just crushed. Don't think they'd be too keen on that. Balazar idly twirls a twig between his left hand's seven fingers. He then says a few words in a tongue that sounds like it doesn't belong in such a boisterous and friendly man's throat. Abyssal: Little monsters need to learn a few lessons in humility and faith. The former on the edge of a sword, and the latter through a thorough tongue-lashing to whoever's left.
Balazar's ridiculously huge smile is replaced with a look of absolute confusion. You... what? Demons are horrible monsters, not from our world, that destroy everything in their path. Balazar is getting noticeably angrier. If I ever found out which of my ancestors thought consorting with demons was a good idea, I'll— He catches himself and quickly pulls a small glass sculpture of a jackal head from a pouch at his waist. Without much fanfare, he swiftly forms a fist around it. When he opens his hand, sparkling dust falls to the ground. Sorry, I can get angry easily.
Sorry guys, I got kicked off my computer. That's what I get for eating Mom's smoothie ingredients. Derp! Balazar notices the masked man enter the tavern and his grin somehow gets even wider. Greetings! You don't need to wear a mask. We're friends here, we have nothing to hide! I mean, look at me! He raises his left hand when gesturing to himself— it has seven digits, two of them opposing thumbs. I was born looking like a freak, and I never let it bother me! The boisterous tiefling's smile never falters for a moment.
Balazar's preposterously large grin is slowly replaced by a frown. Nualia's dead? That's a shame... I was just surprised that I didn't see her. She stuck out, and in a good way. Unlike me, who, well... He idly strokes his horns. I never really talked much with her, but she seemed like a nice enough sort of girl. A bit belatedly, he notices that his words have caused an uneasy silence in the Rusty Dragon. His grin returns. But let us not dwell overlong on the past! I have returned home after five years of training to be a champion of Ragathiel. He shows a hand-carved wooden holy symbol on his neck, depicting a feathery wing crossed with a sword. Judging from this symbol that my mentor gave me, I'd say I succeeded.
I thought it was Lu-Si-Uh. I'm American as well. Balazar looks around at the other guests. Er... Mister barkeeper? Please tell me this isn't the start of a bad "walk into a bar" joke. I had my fill of those on the way here. He turns back to Lucia. Say, have you seen an aasimar girl around here lately? She lived in Sandpoint when I left, and I haven't seen her.
RP begin! A huge tiefling man bursts in the door of the Rusty Dragon. His eyes are glowing yellow and he has horns curling down past his chin. A spiked shield is hung over his back, and he has thick armor. He also has a gigantic grin on his face. Good day to all! At the very least, I hope it is a good day! The people around Sandpoint seem a bit more somber than I remember, but it is still home! He sits down next to the woman in the white dress. Psst! Lucia! Hello! I don't think I've seen you before. Did you come here recently? Meaning, in the past five years? I've been away from home for a while. He extends a hand to shake. My name's Balazar. I was born here.

Balazar Orgrin, LG pitborn warrior of the holy light
What's your physical description? You should know that from looking at me, shouldn't you? But I'll humor you. I'm a big man, people have joked that I wrestle with wolves. I have thin, ribbed horns that curl down past my chin. I've been told that I have scary yellow eyes, but they stop saying that after a while. I also have seven fingers on my left hand. My skin's a sort of dull green. Don't say that I eat too many vegetables, I've heard that one a million times. Personality? I like it when things go well for everyone. I'm aware that people are prejudiced against my kind, but I usually turn whatever they have to say into a joke. I am big, loud, and boisterous, and I love a good drink. (I portray personalities better as I play the character) Background? I was born about the same time as this aasimar girl who lived here... her name was Nualia, right? People liked her, they didn't like me, and I shrugged everything off. I didn't care what people said about me, I just kept on living. Eventually, people caught on that I hauled wood and rocks around for people, and didn't charge anything. They treated me a little bit better afterward. One day, I found some holy texts around, speaking of an angel named Ragathiel. He sounded like someone I could agree with– I'm not too fond of being fiend-spawn either! I left Sandpoint one day to find someone who could teach me more of the angel. I came back home last month, and, well, obviously I'm a paladin of Ragathiel now. Everyone seems a bit different, though... was Sandpoint always this somber? What motivates you? If Ragathiel could throw off his heritage, then so can I. I live to help others, and rise above my bloodline. What is your greatest fear? That Ragathiel will look on me as a failure when my time comes. What is your greatest wish? This will probably sound stupid, but... I want to become an aasimar, and become more like Ragathiel. What is the moral line you will never cross? I will never commit murder, nor will I ever harm a child. I'll work on his stats now. |
