Description and Background
Description:
Upon first impression, Rukellian gives off a warm aura. He smiles and often, rarely showing signs of anger or sorrow. If he is not stuffing his face with sweets, he is found volunteering at the local temple, practicing his healing arts. Most people will be relieved to find that the first impression was true. He has the heart and mind of a child and loves to do things for other people. No ulterior motives lie in his heart, and gold is not always necessary when their is a sweet pastry waiting for him at the end of a long day. Satin blonde, and often disheveled, his hair and creamy brown eyes are his defining features. Oh, he is tall too, taller than most common folk. A slim figure as well. Many girls flock to him asking how he stays so fit while eating all the sweets he eats. His response? "Bwhahahahaha, I was gifted with a lightning fast metabolism; what can I say?"
On a side note, it is worth mentioning that his childlike, innocent demeanor lends itself to an odd quirk. Under no circumstances will he take part in or accept any actions involving hurting other people and the denizens of the forest. Combat is sometimes unavoidable, Rukellian understands that much, but he will never wield a weapon, at least one that hurts instead of heals. A shield? Of course! Anything to prevent harm to his dear friends. Though, he always tries to talk things through, and tries to avoid conflict from arising. Rukellian has also been known to help his enemies. He cannot bear to see them in pain and will always treat them so that they won't die, if he can help it. That's just who he is, how he is.
Background:
Not much is known about Rukellian's past. Some say that his glowing exterior and cheery disposition is a facade, a mask to cover a dark or tear-filled past. Everything is but merely speculation though. Seeing bread crumbs laced around his face, eyes squinting with joy, a goofy expression beaming out, who would want to see that go away? Certainly not the children that he keeps entertained, nor the sickly and poverty-stricken that he supports and heals.
While training to be a priest at the local temple, he would often take up the hobby of baking, and at a young age, it grew to be a passion. While healing people and tending to the poor, Rukellian would go out of his way to bake bread and other foods for people. His reputation grew within the small community and rumor has it that a loaf of bread baked by Rukellian was just as good for you as drinking a healing potion! Upon hearing such rumors, he would burst into laughter saying, "Not yet my friends, not yet... but maybe soon." Then he finishes with his signature grin, forefinger and thumb wrapped around his chin, winking one eye, acting (or trying to act) cool. |
