10 Min background.

Question 1. How does your character interact with the others within a group?
Thanatox is actually a very good team player. Assuming his god agrees, he is more than happy to work with others to accomplish a common goal. However, he wants to know the whole plan and not just his part, he is suspicious of having things concealed from him. He is used to taking orders, but not good at taking criticism.

Question 2. What is your character's role in a group?
Thanatox hit things, burn things, and bleed things. He is not a brains driven monster although he is more intelligent than he seems. Thanatox prefers to fight an obstacle head on and meet it in the front, even if it isn't always the healthiest option. He is also knowledgeable of how a city moves and breathes, having spent a portion of his life as an "Under-Butler"

Question 3. How is your character not as they seems?
I want one or two skills that would surprise others if they found out he knows them. Also include personality traits, positive or negative, that would similarly surprise others.
Thanatox was raised to a life as a man-servant, so while he likes to hurt things and hit them hard, he could also carry a tray of drinks without spilling a drop or lay out a perfect dinner party. His training also served to teach him about the pulse of the city and so he has a surprising amount of knowledge. He also always tries to keep an immaculately cared for serving-man's outfit on him at all times. He used to do it in case of problems with the outfit he wore so he could always present a proper face, but now it is a reminder of what he was, and what he will never be again.

Thanatox has a soft spot for orphans. He doesn't like hurting children in general, but the street urchins and other outcast children, regardless of race, are off-limits to him and anyone near him. The quickest way to gain his ire is to do something against this subset of society and let him find out about it, or worse, witness it.

Question 4. What are your character's goals, conscious and, perhaps, subconscious?
Revenge is an easy one, but against the entire judicial system makes him a little unique. It's not that he thinks he shouldn't have been imprisoned, but that he was laughed at while did it. He kept his face calm, barely, and let their laughter stoke the fire of hatred within him. He also wants to make a name for himself. He has spent his life trying to learn to be the invisible man-servant (no easy task), and now he wants to be known for who he is.

A goal he would never tell anyone is that of starting a home for unwanted children. Knowing the loss and resentment of being alone, he wants to help other children not feel the same way, however this is slowly beginning to morph and become part of his other goals. And his thoughts are turning toward using this as a means of gaining his other two goals. Teaching children to be warriors and follow him into battle, bringing down the hated enemies of Thanatox.

What he can't even begin to admit to himself, is that he wants to satisfy the "voice of god" he hears so that it leaves him alone. To be alone with his own thoughts and in his own head is something he wants, although doesn't even realize it yet.

Question 5. How easily does your character love? Have they been in love?
Thanatox had a crush on a serving girl once, but she spurned him. He thought he loved one lady he was contracted to guard and serve but she didn't even notice him. He thinks of her fondly, but also sometimes thinks of wringing the life from her with his bare hands while screaming about "seeing him" and "remembering him forever." He is very confused on the subject of love and it is all twisted up with hate and violence. He may never be able to have a healthy relationship with a woman.

Question 6. Is your character racist at all, either now or in their past?
Oddly, Thanatox hates Orcs, as well as humans. Humans for the obvious reason that they used him to be their attendant/bodyguard and stole his childhood to train him to that life, yet never noticed how hard he worked to please. But Orcs hold a special place of hatred in his heart because he sees every single one as a betrayer, leaving him to the hands of humans and abandoning him. On a field of enemies, Thanatox would kill the Orcs first, the Humans second, and then whoever is closest.

Question 7. All people believe something that is not true, both about the world around them and about themselves. What lies/untruths does your character believe about themselves and the world around them?
Obviously Thanatox believes he is sane and that his god speaks to him, which is plainly untrue.

Question 8. How is your character about material possessions?
Thanatox isn't obsessed with material wealth. He prefers to keep only what he can carry although he does like the occasional trinket. He is partial to things that glow blue for some reason. He likes to keep himself and his god's avatar (eidolon) outfitted in appropriate combat readiness gear and of course carries what useful potions he can, but doesn't horde it the way others do. This does not mean he doesn't desire his fare share of bounty, he just tends to spend it about as fast as it comes in.

Question 9. What does your character perceive their major problems to be?
Other than being in jail? He sees his whole life as a waste up till now. He worked so hard to be good at what he was taught but he was always beat hardest for the smallest mistakes. He has never been recognized for doing a good job, and if it weren't for his rather unique appearance, he would never have been remembered, but even still he was always referred to as "that Orc-servant thing."

Question 10. What does he perceive the solutions to those problems to be?
He intends to be his own master and punish those who have looked down on him. Whenever he hurts or kills someone, he will try and get them to say his name. He began carving up his body in anger when he was younger, but now he displays his scars proudly and even adds to them in sacrifice to his god of fire and blood.

Question 11. What are your character's religious beliefs?
He believes in his nameless god of fire and blood. It is a very relaxed religion, not speaking of things like good and evil or right and wrong, but instead demanding daily sacrifice and an offering to the avatar whenever he slays a foe. In return he is granted power and promised help in achieving his goals. Of course, sometimes the voice of his god becomes insistent and demands the death of another or a greater blood sacrifice than a token blood-letting, and when this becomes the case, he must answer the call of his god.

Question 12. What does your character fear?
Thanatox fears being completely helpless and immobile yet remaining aware. With even a little movement available, he can rage against his imprisonment and even cause himself a little pain in offering to appease his god, but being able to do nothing and yet have to witness things done to him, terrifies him and reminds him of growing up and being punished on the "time-out table."

Question 13. How much of a temper does your character have? What sorts of things set them off?
Thanatox has a rather large temper, although he has learned to keep it in check. Unfortunately this tends to make him a little more blood thirsty the more he holds it in, causing him to lose all restraint when he finally does let go of the reigns on his temper.

Seeing children hurt, especially orphans, will set him off instantly, but people ignoring him or not noticing him will feed his temper. The angrier he gets, the quieter he gets, knowing that the more he speaks while angry the more likely it is to boil over and come rushing out.

More

5)He is in jail because he murdered the families of three prominent (although more middle than high class) members of the city. When they found him he was covered in half-congealed blood while muttering to himself. He had several places on his arms that appeared to be fresh cuts that had been seared closed and all three of the houses were covered in blood. All of the families and their servants were accounted for in the death toll, near 200 people, but there were more than a few body parts that were never found. Upon finding him there were several moments of shocked silence before they charged him with murder, desecration, consorting with dark powers, and anything else they could stick him with.

Motivation
1)Thanatox wants to create a place where children can be raised and trained to be self-reliant. This is the path he desires to fame and notoriety, although he also would like to keep his reverence of fire and blood to himself, unconsciously knowing others wouldn't understand.

2)As a player, I would love Thanatox to have to confront his growing insanity and see if it either shatters him utterly and drives him completely insane, or if he is able to piece himself together and come out of it at least partially sane and no longer hearing voices, or at least recognizing them for what they are, part of his psychosis.

1)Thanatox partakes of blood from those he kills. he feeds parts the the avatar of his god, but he always imbibes at least a small portion of a fallen enemies blood. He knows it is loathsome and there are few that would understand, but it is an urge he cannot silence, that only grows the more he tries to put it off. Once, he put it off so long, he actually tore a man apart with his hands before devouring the still-beating heart directly from his chest.

2)Thanatox doesn't know that he wasn't abandoned as a child. He was stolen by slavers and sold to an enterprising Butler who saw an opportunity for free labor. He was lied to growing up about his "orphan debt" and thus the butler was able to steal almost all of Thanatox’s wages for most of his life.

people in his life

1)"The Butler" is someone Thanatox actually never knew the name of. He was a portly man who trained Thanatox in the ways of a serving man but also spent most of Thanatox's life stealing the money he earned. When "The Butler" left service at the house and Thanatox received his first full pay, he realized what had been happening and swore an unending blood-vengeance against him should he ever encounter him again.

2)"Lady Larissa" is the waif of a woman Thanatox served for the span of only a few months and he fell "in love" with. She never paid him any special attention, but he gave her his hand to help her out of the carriage and was forced to physically move her when an attempt was made on her life once. He always respected the way she never lost her proper demeanor. While she wouldn't be "friendly" to Thanatox " she does remember him as a capable manservant.

3) Daniel "Hat" Etageorm is an enterprising halfling and the only person to ever treat Thanatox as more than a servant. Hat's visits were few and far between, but he always took a few moments to talk to Thanatox and sometimes even brought him a small trinket. His talk was always circumspect, but over time, Thanatox realized Hat was hinting that if he ever needed something done "under the table," that Hat would be more than happy to help such a fellow out. While imprisoned, Thanatox has thought often of Hat, so nicknamed for his penchant for wearing garish and outlandish hats, wondering how he might find him and if he might have more than help to offer.

how he got power

1)The first time he truly felt his rage begin to boil over, when a new serving man continuously tried to undermine him and make him look bad to their employers. It was the first of many times he sought comfort in cutting himself.

2)The sounds and smells of a house kitchen. Glasses and plates clinking together as they are moved and washed, a variety of food items in various states of preparation. An entire household of servants moving through a room that can in no way contain them all. the low voices of everyone trying to make their point but not be obtrusive in their speech. They are both fond and hated memories.

3)The first taste of blood that wasn't his own. The way it seemed to pour out of the body and sing to him, beckoning him to take just a taste. the feeling of power that erupted through him as he tasted it for the first time and witnessed the avatar of his god visiting him for the first time.

-=CHARACTER AND EIDOLON LOOK=-
Eyes:red
Hair:short black
Skin:pale green
Height:6'3
Weight:230 lbs
1)Thanatox was raised to be a servant and bodyguard. His earliest memories are of being trained and whipped like an animal. Thanatox is a Blood-God Disciple Summoner/ Witch . He sees his eidolon as an avatar of his god and so he hears voices that are actually just his higher than normal intelligence working on a subconscious level. It will begin as a single voice

2)He stands an imposing 6' 3" and weighs around 230lbs. He has short cropped black hair and small red eyes. His teeth seem to be a little large for his mouth but for the most part he works hard to keep his lips pulled over them. His skin is the pale green of a foamy sea and slightly pebbly. On both legs he has straight, clean, and pale concentric rings of scars, as of cuts made with a fine blade and treated immediately. His arms have a more jagged and seemingly random collection of scars. There is one scar on his chest that seems random, at the same time it also appears deliberate in a very unsettling way. He has a single scar on his forehead in the shape of a stylized flaming drop of blood, this scar is so specific that is draws the eye and makes one wonder at its meaning.

3) Thanatox moves with a grace born of years of training as a servant. Despite his massive frame, he moves with an almost delicate step, generally not even causing the china to tremble. He is very good at moving in tight spaces and can generally manage something in each hand while maneuvering around people and obstacles with ease. This translates into his fighting with him assaulting more than one foe at a time and almost playfully dancing around the battlefield. Despite how he was raised, there is something primal in fighting that sings in his blood and puts a smile on his face. He is never as happy as when he is matching blows with an enemy.

4)Even prior to hearing the voice of god, Thanatox felt irresistibly drawn to fire and blood. While he was growing up he kept a small knife secreted on himself at all times and when his rage began to overtake him, he would find a reason to excuse himself for a moment and make small cuts on himself to relieve the pressure. He spent what little allowance he earned from his work on candles and always kept a fire burning in his room while he was there, sometimes staring into it for hours before sleep would overtake him. It was during one such session that the first whispers came to him a whispered of blood and pain to those who had shunned him.

Spell Poppet:Each gravewalker carries around a gristly, inanimate poppet stitched from human skin and stuffed with shards of bone, fingernails, and grave dirt. A gravewalker’s spells come from the will of evil spirits residing in the poppet, and its ability to hold spells functions in a manner identical to the way a witch’s spells are granted by her familiar. The gravewalker must commune with her poppet each day to prepare her spells and cannot prepare spells that are not stored in the poppet.
