Your Character
[Full Name:] Firehoof
[Age:] 137
[Gender:] Male
[Date of Birth:] 2nd January.
[Place of Birth:] Greystreaks herd.
[Residence:] None, as of yet.
[Class:] Archer
[Title/rank:] Herd leader
[Alignment:]Neutral
[Occupation:] Fletcher
[Appearance:] Firehoof is an averagely sized centaur. He is well muscled and sleek, from his human to equine half. He has a hard jaw and an angled face, with a full nose and mouth. His eyes are hazel, and dance when caught in the moonlight. His hair is auburn, and kept cropped quite short, leaving some room for styling (although not much.) In combination he looks fairly handsome, despite the scars littering his back. In his equine side his body is the same auburn as his hair, and smooth and unmarked. His tail is quite short, and his legs quite broad. Just above his hoves there are tufts of orangey red hair above his hooves, from which he gained his name. He appears to be about twenty nine, one of the side affects of being a mortal.
[Attire:] Firehoof never wears clothes, as he has little need for them. In the winter he sometimes ears animal fur from those he has hunted, but in general he remains unclothed, as his equine side has little need for it and he cannot die from illness, so fears it very little. If anything he wears simple headbands, just to keep his hair back.
[Personality:] Firehoof is a born leader, and it shows when he talks. He can be friendly, but can turn angry if his position is threatened. Usually he has no temper to speak of, and so he is an easygoing centaur to talk with. He is intelligent, but keeps it to himself. Overall he talks little, only when he needs to or if he finds a very interesting conversation which, for him, doesn't happen hugely often.
[Beliefs – personal and political:] Firehoof believes that he was made leader of his herd through divine providence, and so leads them strongly and well mindedly. He does believe in keeping horses as slaves, but keeps them healthy and cared for.
[Fears:]Ironically, Firehoof fears fire. He avoids it like the plague, for he has seen it destroy entires forests in hours. Apart from that he fears little, although his fear of fire cripples him in situations when it is used.
[Likes:] Firehoof likes his herd, and likes the feeling of ownership it gives him. He also likes talking with humans, a trait which originally marked him out as an outcast. He alos likes suceeding at task which other doubt he can do, as he can prove to them that is more powerful than they first anticipated.
[Dislikes] People who believe centaurs are stupid, as they are part horse. He often challenges people to combat when they react in this way, and generally defeats them.
[Quirks:] He believes his bow was given to him by Mithros himself, due to the fact he has never yet missed a shot with it. It has saved his life many times, and so he attributes it to the gods.
[Weapons:] Longbow; Excellent
[Inventory:] His hand carved longbow and a pack which contains travelling tools, some food and headbands.
[Strengths:] Archery is his main strength, and hunting comes just after that. He is a strong tracker, and moves very quickly over most terrain.
[Weaknesses:]Fire cripples him and brings him to his (ahem) knees. He also is useless with a sword, and only average with a dagger, making him not particularly good in close combat.
[Magic:] None to speak of.
[Goal:] To defeat Greystreak and take over the herd.
[Family:]
Mother; Dead.
Father; Dead
[Lover:]None, as of yet.
[Familiar/Pet:] None.
[History:] Firehoof was born an outcast, like many of the centaurs in his herd. He grew up in a forest for many years, and had to fight to survive. His father and mother turned to banditry and were hung. Since then he became wise beyong his youth, and began searching for those outcast by Greystreak. Over the years, he built up a good herd, and they roamed, searching for other centaurs.
By his 100th birthday he had a strong herd and had been challenged several times for leadership. He had won all of his battles, and they grew to prosper. But over the years he became unhappy with what he had, and grew to want to return to his old herd. Sadly, to do that, he ould have to be able to beat Greystreak in close combat. And so, he took his herd to Corus, so that he could train his sword skills.
With the kings permission they stayed in the Royal Forest, and that is where they are now.
