-----

◊ Name: Ampasteon
◊ Age: 187
◊ Gender: Male
◊ Height: 172cm/ 5’7 -ish
◊ Kingdom: Avarita
◊ Element: Fire on a boat. genius.
◊ Rank: Lesser
◊ Occupation: He introduces himself as an employee at that pawn shop right down the road from that tavern with the little green dragon as the emblem (what? The one that almost got closed down because of where it was sourcing it’s drink? Yeah. It probably is), and . What he leaves out is the bit where he doesn’t really obtain his goods legally. Acquisition of his products range from smuggling to outright piracy. Most of the time he leaves managing the store to his ‘manager’ anyway, while he focuses on ‘conveying’ and ‘delivering’ their products, often at sea for weeks at a time.

◊ Abilities:
Sea creature: Able to spend long periods of time underwater, he’s able to hold his breath for up to six hours. Not only that, but his mobility underwater is on par, if not better, with his mobility on land.

Adrenaline: He’s able to gain great bursts of speed for a short amount of time, but it tires him out greatly, and he can, at most, use it for half a minute. This only works for covering lateral distance, as moving faster doesn’t actually give him more control over his sped-up movements, and if he’s not careful, it can and will send him tripping over himself in an ungraceful heap. It’s happened before. Amp’s not too keen on repeating the experience.

Scales: When Amp’s feeling particularly threatened, or nervous, the scales that already dot his skin grow to protect his body in a thin layer of reptilian armour. Perhaps the reason he has scales all over his body already is because he’s always awkward. Either way, it isn’t a phenomena that Amp’s learnt to control yet, even though he’s taken advantage of it when it counted, although it probably won’t do all that much against a sharp enough blade.

EFIREFIREFIRE PFOHRK RKEAA RGHAAfFIRE Amp can make small flames but like hell he can control them. He’s not really in practice with magic considering half the time he’s on a boat. In the middle of the ocean. He can’t imagine it’d end well. It probably wouldn’t. Ever.



◊ Personality:
Amp attempts to cultivate an appropriately intimidating aura for somebody in his line of work, and for the most part, he seems to be succeeding, if at the cost of premature wrinkling. His perpetually furrowed brows are a testament to how dedicated he remains to his work, and he’s definitely working on fine-tuning his scowl to be just the right shade of eat-your-face persuasive. Consequently his expression seems well on his way to be in a permanent sulk. If nothing else, it can be said that Amp is very serious about his job.

His dedication to work may, however, have been a concerted effort to make up for what really isn’t a very bright mind. He’s often one-track and short sighted; blundering into consequences where a few dirty looks wasn’t nearly enough to bail him out. Amp is aware that he’s not the most intelligent fellow in town, and although he takes pains not to do anything too far out of his depth, it’s far too often that his gullibility causes him trouble.

He is, however, very good with his hands (SSSHUSH), and enjoys the act of creation (SSHSHHSSHHUSH). This can range from woodwork, to sewing, and to cooking. Knitting is often a good way to occupy his hands, and as a result he has a tiny stash of knitted scarves, sweaters, and socks which is presently outgrowing the closet(s) he’s stashing them in.
Amp is very possessive about his own stuff, though. Although he’s perfectly open with lending help to others, and maybe even objects, he’s much less keen on handing out objects he’s attributed value to, and tends to take offense at the suggestion that maybe he should, say, give away a couple of his scarves to those nice kids down the road (NO NO NO).


◊ History: The youngest son in a family of six, Amp’s been given pretty much free reign to do whatever the hell he wanted. As it turned out, ‘whatever the hell he wanted’ involved picking fights, looking tough, and knitting mittens for his elder sisters (who thought that it was hilariously cute and also strangely endearing). As his family owned a textiles store, material was never in short supply, although it took a bit of convincing for his parents to get him to agree to putting his hard-made handiwork on display. However, dealing with racketeers eventually drove the little store out of business and consequently the entire family turned to less savoury options to make a living -- and Avaritia was nothing if not full of opportunity. And, naturally, Amp got caught up in it as well.

Their activities have ranged from fraternizing with the very individuals who put them out of business, to piracy, to mercenary work, extortion, pedalling goods, and all manners of money-making activities. Thanks to their concerted efforts, Amp’s family is reasonably well off, even if they don’t have a house in the upper districts to avoid drawing attention to themselves. Regardless, they’ve always been just under the eyes of the law, and have been careful not to cross anybody they can’t afford to.

That does not, however, mean that there haven’t been... complications at times.
