Name: Marshall
Class: Hunter
Age: 16
Born in: Carrhae
Appearance: Rather lanky for his age, having a somewhat slim frame befitting for his class. His hair is short and is of a light brown color, not done up in any particular style. His hair tends to get messy and unkempt throughout the day as he does not care much for his appearance. His eyes are of a light blue, as if to mimic the icy fields of his homeland. His clothes, for the most part, don't deviate much from the standard armor those of his class would wear, but he does have one extra piece: A necklace holding an amulet bearing a snowflake-shaped design, with no special effects as he only wears it for sentimental purposes.
Personality: Rather quiet and withdrawn, sometimes has difficulties approaching new people or things. He can get uncomfortable around strangers, especially around larger crowds. This problem may have stemmed from him having few people who he considered as friends. However, he tends to be exceptionally loyal if you gain his trust, perhaps even to the point where his loyalty could get him into dangerous situations. Also tends to be empathetic towards others which could also cause him problems if it gets out of hand. Overall, he is a pretty level-headed individual, but is more comfortable in familiar situations. Strives to become stronger (for reasons explained in the story).
Story: Born to a trading family in Carrhae, Marshall didn't exactly grow up in luxury, but his family certainly had enough to get by. Even so, trading could be unreliable as a source of income, especially in a town that couldn't grow its own produce. Because of this, there was always a chance that things could go bad, and the family's future would be in danger. To counteract this, Marshall planned to earn money from joining one of several mercenary groups that had been cropping up elsewhere in Ilia. Unfortunately for Marshall, he had practically zero battle experience, even with his weapon of choice. Obviously, this meant that becoming a mercenary would likely only lead to him getting himself killed. As such, he decided to start training, throughout Ilia and elsewhere, in order to become a stronger warrior.
Marshall had few connections, friends or otherwise, outside of his family. Perhaps this contributed to the fact that he had almost no combat experience, but it also had other effects; it caused Marshall to treat the two friends that he did have like family. They swore to protect each other and have each others backs if any of them were ever in danger. These connections were the foundation that Marshall's exceptional loyalty was built upon. When Marshall informed them that he wouldn't be around as much due to his self-training, one of his friends offered to make them special amulets to remind each of them of the others. Marshall still carries his amulet with him, as a reminder of his friends and a testament to his loyalty.
