Tibor Virdant
"quote"
Bio: He was born into a household that was humble and plain and just a bit poor. It never felt as if they were suffering for need of anything but all their lives seemed very sedentary. Tibor, however, was born with a thirst for more. He wanted to learn and go and challenge the plain existence he had been given. It left him getting into trouble constantly as a child, something his parents never could quite understand. The first thing he stole was a book, then objects, and scrolls. He would break into libraries and the magic sanctuaries in order to absorb as much as he could, even trying to replicate the things he had learned. He never had an aptitude for doing magic, but that didn’t matter. He could create basic tools and he would give them to anyone who showed an interest, hoarding the books, but never hesitating to put these secret knowledges out into the world.
It gained him a reputation as a thief and as ‘The Storm Chaser’ because his followers thought of him as someone who might one day learn how to even chase the storms away. The group of robin-hood like renegades took on his supposed teachings and while he does work with them sometimes and frequent their camp, Tibor has never thought of himself as a leader. He was just a rebel obsessed with his own needs. A partner is crime in unnecessary. Even his family meant nothing to him. In order to search for a better life, he left his home at the age of fourteen and has been stealing and conning ever since. He lives well but his quest for knowledge still sends him forward. Upon hearing about a tool of the most unimaginable power, he breaks into the chambers of the mages and steals something that that will change his life forever... |
Age: 26
Gender: Male Species: Human Orientation: Bisexual (female leaning) Status: Taken by Enki Occupation: Thief, renegade, and unofficial leader of the Storm Chasers. Appearance: A man of slightly above-average height at 5'8" with lean, coiled muscles, he doesn’t stand out much among his people. Though, others have called his gray eyes exceptionally sharp and alluring. His hair is styled with short or swept back bangs, the silvery blonde locks falling in layers two inches past his ears. His multiple piercings are mostly hidden but boast rubies and citrine-colored stones in designs that appear to be homemade. Due to the stormy climate of his region, his skin is ashy pale, cool-toned, and easily damaged by harsh sunlight. Though his nails are well-groomed, his hands are calloused and his long fingers scarred from tiny mishaps. His expression is usually a charming smile, a carefully neutral look, or something sarcastic or witty. After touching the portal trinket, it was absorbed into his left palm, infusing it with veins of magic that, over time, crawl their way up his arm and also color his eyes with an eerie silver and lavender layer that also leaves spider webbing veins around his eyes. After stepping foot in the Sapphire Isles, he rarely takes his gloves off. Weapons & tools: He had numerous daggers in Izaver but only carries two now. He carries both a lock pick kit and a cleaning kit used for recovering ancient artifacts. Likes: Fruit, puzzles, relaxing, scheming, learning, and adventures. Dislikes: Losing even a small argument, bone broth and plain foods, rigid people, inequality, judgement, and people touching his hair. Personality: To most people, Tibor is the picture of charm and recklessness. In reality, he is always listening, learning, and planning ahead, only jumping into a situation that's fully understood. It's just that he reads a scene with such ease while never letting on he's even reading it that people misinterpret his nature. He uses this to his advantage. His sharpness has gotten him where he is and he knows it, but he's never felt hubris, just rightful, if irritating vocal confidence. After all, he knows there is still so much out there to learn. It made him angry and bitter as a child and though some of that remains, he is wiser as an adult, wiser even than his years. He’s come to accept that he can’t change everything and has become remarkably passive doesn’t want to be a radical but there is still an obsessive energy in him, one that drives him to see a plan through even if it's dangerous or doomed to fail. He's tough and resourceful so it's not luck but skill that often sees him through and that power that comes from knowing exactly what a human is capable of--so much more and so much less than they think.Even so, he is pleasant for most people to be around, enjoying a verbal debate as well as any challenge or a chance to enjoy any of life’s many pleasures. |
