Not Quite A Hero Yet

Name: Link St. John Smythe

Age: 19

Alignment: Lawful Good

Sexual preference: Asexual, panromantic

Religion: Though he questions his faith daily, he believes in the golden goddesses.

Star sign: April 16, Aries.  Sums him up about right.

Languages spoken: Hylian, and while fluent he stumbles over his words often.  He's got a vague understanding of Ancient Hylian, but only in so much as the words look familiar to him, sometimes.  It's complicated.

Vices: Stubborn, reckless, thick-headed at times, rash, selfless to the point of idiocy, self-conscious at times, thinks he's a coward if he's not risking his neck.

Virtues: Brave, loyal, level-headed, friendly, impeccable mental fortitude, protective, forgiving, always there when you need him most.

Occupation: Professional farm boy.  No, seriously.

What skills do they use for that occupation?: As he's been doing it for many years, Link meets all the physical requirements for a job involving strenuous work on Lon Lon Ranch.  Before that, however, he worked part-time assisting his uncle in the smithy, so he has some experience there as well.

Describe their father: Peter Gallagher, a lowborn knight.  Not a bad bone in his body, the most wayward thing he ever did was wooing Clarissa.  He married her after discovering she was pregnant with his child.  He later died in a battle where he was fighting for the freedom of non-humans.

Link was raised by Peter's older brother Ezekiel, referred to as "Uncle Zeke".  While his bedside manner was lacking more often than not, he was a solid father figure for Link and loved him dearly.  After contracting a sickness, Zeke died when Link was thirteen.

Describe their mother: Clarissa St. John Smythe, a pianist born into a wealthy family.  Good at working with her hands, graceful in her movements.  She married below her class, causing her family to disinherit her.  The news that her husband had been killed did not sit well with her, and she died giving birth to her only son, Link.

Compulsion and addictions: None.

Phobias and fears: Losing his loved ones.  Right now he's a bit afraid of his dreams as well.

Disabilities: None.

Your Worst Nightmare

Name: Azrael Detov (surname changes frequently)

Age: Unknown - approximately 500 years

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Sexual preference: Pansexual

Religion: Somewhere between believing in the golden goddesses and the Dubhar's nine deities.

Star sign: Being without a birthday, he doesn't have an official star sign... but Sagitarius/Capricorn fits him very well.

Languages spoken: Hylian and dubhteanga - he's fluent in both, but dubhteanga is easier when he's in his true shadow form.  Probably some grasp of Ancient Hylian, but he doesn't use it anymore.

Vices: Deeply sarcastic, aggressive, sadistic at times, possessive over things he is afraid of losing, insecure, self-deprocating, has difficulty moving on, unforgiving, selfish, reckless.

Virtues: Quick-witted, charming, intuitive, protective over those he loves (though this can border on possessiveness), intelligent, an apt warrior, dedicated to his friends, knowledgable on various things, brave at times.

Occupation: Professional kingpin and dirtbag.  Runs several drug rings.  Also has a fair few non-drug business contacts that he has been getting back in touch with; he intends to utilize their expertise for the revolution.  He endorses and manages the New Hyrule Sage.  Part-time assassin, although he's mostly retired.  Mostly.

What skills do they use for that occupation?: As a jack of all trades, Azrael employs just about every skill in his arsenal - primarily intimidation tactics with the scamps he finds himself being forced to deal with.  Occasionally intimidating tactics paired with the gentle reminder that he was an assassin for a long time.

Describe their father: N/A.

Describe their mother: N/A.

Compulsion and addictions: Dependent on alcohol, occasionally to combat insomnia and occasionally to combat night terrors.  Dislikes eating or sleeping if he can help it.

Phobias and fears: Pocrescophobia, oblivion, and eternity.  That last one is a pretty bad one to have when you're immortal.  He used to be afraid of obtaining permanent scars, but he's since grown out of that.

Disabilities: Monocular vision.
