The Broken Blade Reformed In Shadow was the sole hier of one of the more power Harbourhead houses, grown wealthy from the slave trade and in his youth he lacked for nothing, the finest foods, the best tutors...all were his. Not that he cared about any of it bar his lessons with the blade.  As his skill grew, so did his pride, and this in many ways lead to his fall, refusing as he did to back down from any duel he was called too, and his desire to prove to his oppenent and all who watched that he was the better swordsman, leaving those who opposed him humilated.  Until one of the Royal Guardswomen challenged him, and bested him, and when he refused to back down, left him near dead.

After the crowds had gone, he picked himself up and deciding he couldnt face his father as he was, wandered, all the while the wounds weakening him until he crossed the boundaries of one of the shadowlands that dot the South. There he sat, as the blood drained from him, and the life faded, the Eye came to him and offered the Black Exaltation and the chance to become greater than those about him. He accepted, and after a short time of training, returned to his family home in the hills above Kirighast, arranging an ...accident for his dear father, leaving him the sole owner of the manor in the hills, the better to serve his new master's will, as well as whatever passying fad takes his fancy.

The Broken Blade Reforged In Shadow is a tall man in his early twenties, possesed of the milk chocolate skin of the South East, his long tawny hair worn in a top knot or allowed to flow free over his shoulders as it takes his fancy. His face, as befits his good breeding is pleasing to look at, deep dark eyes, cheek bones suggesting command without overwhelming and full lips, often bearing a faintly pleased smile. He dresses, always, in fine silks, though the colour of them varies with his mood, though black and white comprise much of his wardrobe. Whatever he might wear undeath he is rarely without a long black cape to cover it, and the elegantly crafted Soulsteel Reaper Daiklaive at his side. Adorning his fingers there are usually several rings, though he is never without the signet ring of his house.

The Broken Blade Reforged In Shadow

Caste: Abyssal Moonshadow\\ Nature: Bravo\\ Concept: Cultured Duelist\\ XP: 9\\


The Broken Blade Reformed In Shadow was the sole hier of one of the more power Harbourhead houses, grown wealthy from the slave trade and in his youth he lacked for nothing, the finest foods, the best tutors...all were his. Not that he cared about any of it bar his lessons with the blade. As his skill grew, so did his pride, and this in many ways lead to his fall, refusing as he did to back down from any duel he was called too, and his desire to prove to his oppenent and all who watched that he was the better swordsman, leaving those who opposed him humilated. Until one of the Royal Guardswomen challenged him, and bested him, and when he refused to back down, left him near dead.

After the crowds had gone, he picked himself up and deciding he couldnt face his father as he was, wandered, all the while the wounds weakening him until he crossed the boundaries of one of the shadowlands that dot the South. There he sat, as the blood drained from him, and the life faded, the Eye came to him and offered the Black Exaltation and the chance to become greater than those about him. He accepted, and after a short time of training, returned to his family home in the hills above Kirighast, arranging an ...accident for his dear father, leaving him the sole owner of the manor in the hills, the better to serve his new master's will, as well as whatever passying fad takes his fancy.


The Broken Blade Reforged In Shadow is a tall man in his early twenties, possesed of the milk chocolate skin of the South East, his long tawny hair worn in a top knot or allowed to flow free over his shoulders as it takes his fancy. His face, as befits his good breeding is pleasing to look at, deep dark eyes, cheek bones suggesting command without overwhelming and full lips, often bearing a faintly pleased smile.

Whatever he might wear undeath he is rarely without a long black cape to cover it, and the elegantly crafted Soulsteel Reaper Daiklaive at his side. Adorning his fingers there are usually several rings, though he is never without the signet ring of his house.
