Appearance:
Although twenty-eight in years Salamander is usually mistaken for still being in his early twenties, being, apparently, blessed with graceful aging, or perhaps some sort of stunted growth. Although on the taller side of average there is a definite lack of mass to him, even if he has some decent muscles from sword training. Slim, perhaps a little effeminately so, Salamander is perhaps unsuited to his line of work.

[break]
His eyes are a light green in color, usually narrowed in general irritation with the world. Accompanying the eyes, his mouth is also pulled in an irritated frown and graced with a thin scar on the bottom right side of his lip. His nose, slightly hawkish also bears a scar, a little chip one might say, taken off the lower bridge from a blade slash. Despite these unfortunate off-putting scars, on the off chance that Salamander is not glaring at the world in general distaste, or glowering at those he loathes, one would say he had a mildly handsome face.
[break]
[break]
Salamander's black hair is somewhat mussy with flyaway locks in an uneven cut that ends partway down his neck. He wears dusty old clothing, usually a tunic over somewhat loose dark pants, and black boots coming up just below the knees At his side is belted his trusty blade, and he wears light leather armor on shoulders, breast, and legs, as well as fingerless leather gloves.

Personality:
Salamander looks on the world with barely tolerating frustration. He would like to find peace and contentment, but people get in the way, the need to be gainfully employed gets in the way, his own uncertainty about what would make him happy, all, frustrate him to no end. He sometimes thinks he would like to settle down in some quite village but nowhere yet has he felt an affinity. Always, he moves on, interested in exploration and culture, and the land, just not the people part.
[break]
[break]
Salamander strives to keep people at a distance, not wishing to become close, but he was once brought up on chivalry and courtesy, so he is always ready, albeit often reluctantly, to come to another's aid, despite such intentions usually turning into unfortunate disadvantages to himself. Despite proverbially enacting the definition of insanity, Salamander continues putting himself out to help those he thinks are in need, pretty much expecting to be screwed over.
[break]
[break]
History:
Salamander grew up as part of a small Barony in the Emberi Kingdom area. His father, a knight of the barony taught him much in the way of chivalry, however his training with the sword, which began when he was twelve, ended when he was fourteen due to a terrible attack.
[break]
[break]
The barony was in a constant feud with a few other baronies over land disputes that had been turning steadily uglier and more violent over the years. One day an attack was launched on the barony castle itself whilst Salamander was visiting a friend, an old knight who had retired from the service to an outlying farm.
[break]
[break]
By the time word had reached Salamander the battle was over, the barony taken over. Salamander’s only option was to flee and go into hiding. He tried to gather information on his family. His father had fallen in battle, and his mother and younger sister it seemed had perished in the fire that had broken out in the vicious battle.
[break]
[break]
Crushed, Salamander spent some time wandering steadily further and further from his home area, uncertain what to do. Revenge was hot in his mind for some time, but he lacked any sort of allies. He tried to seek justice from the Emberi kingdom but never even got close to gaining an audience with any sort of official.
[break]
[break]
After another year of wandering, using what few skills and quick learning her could, he took on various odd jobs to get by, honing his swordsmanship as he could.
[break]
[break]
Salamander had a fateful encounter with a thief who saved his life in an ugly fight with thugs one night. Salamander rashly pledged his life in returning the favor and found himself tricked into becoming a thief himself until his debt was paid off, for the thief was part of a small, what they jokingly called a “guild”, and they were always looking for recruitment for their organized crime. Salamander unwillingly worked for them for five years until he turned twenty, and became quite accomplished in the art, although picking locks always eluded him. Mostly he and a few others became strong arms, guarding the others in big heists and taking out anyone who interfered. His sword skills continued to grow, but perhaps not in any disciplined manner.
[break]
[break]
It was during this time of his life he obtained the nickname “Salamander” a play on his actual name and the fact that for his first couple years in the guild he became quite slippery as a pickpocket.
[break]
[break]
After this time, he left the thieves’ guild without a backwards glance, although he still runs into old acquaintances from time to time. Relations are tense, but with a few select members of the old gang he is still on grudgingly good terms.
[break]
[break]
In his free years after that, Salamander took to being a hire sword, preferring to drop thievery as much as possible. He strove to do what was right, and not take on any shady or thuggish jobs, but occasionally would find himself misreading an employer’s intentions, or being duped entirely as a patsy, at which point he would find himself in the middle of a bad situation. Being only a somewhat skilled swordsman, this has lead to many ugly battle scars from the encounters, and not a few backstabs, but he has always managed to survive them.
[break]
[break]
Currently Salamander wanders aimlessly, in search of fulfilment, but with no concrete idea of just how to obtain it.
[break]
[break]
Miscellaneous:
Salamander uses a long thin double edged blade for one or both hands as well as a hunting knife for, well, hunting.
