Name: Nex Messor
Age: Unknown, hundreds of years.
Category: Wanderer
Height: 6 feet
Abilities:
1: He knows when people are about to die, and will sometimes show up to take dead people's souls to whatever awaits after death. Basically he's a Grim Reaper of sorts. Of course, this ability will probably never be used in the RP, unless like, someone's character dies, or on some random NPC or something.
2: He can teleport, though most of the time he prefers to walk around.
3: He can summon his horse anywhere, any time. Well, within reason. I mean, he can't summon his horse in a place where it wouldn't fit, or like, in the sky or anything like that.
4: He can't die. He can be injured, and needs to take time to heal, but he can never die.
Personal Items: Nothing really worth mentioning or then that he has a bag of clothes with him.
Physical Description: He has extremely pale skin, to the point where his skin almost looks white, as if he doesn't have any blood flow. He doesn't quite look dead, but almost, skin-tone-wise. His eyes are black, and his hair is a dark, blood-red. It normally looks black, but if you see it in bright enough sunlight, you can see that it's red, and it looks like he's got blood in his hair. His hair is just long enough to fall into his eyes, and is messy, though stylishly messy, whether intentional or not. He's tall and thin, and typically wears a variety of black pants, though most common are cargo pants or jeans. He wears a variety of black shirts, a black sweatshirt with a hood that he wears up a lot, a black jacket over that, and just a pair of black boots. Obviously his outfit changes, but he's typically seen wearing something like that.
His horse
His horse typically has a white misty glow around it.
Personality: Typically he's a nice guy, for the most part, but centuries of seeing death has twisted his mind, and sometimes he can seem a little...off. Basically he can be awful cheerful with the prospect of death, or someone dying, or killing someone, though he's never like, 'Yeah, let's go kill someone!' he just is never really affected by it, and can even crack jokes right after someone dies. Beyond that, he's usually a nice guy. Maybe not the nicest guy ever, but he's never mean, unless someone really pisses him off. He's usually quite mellow and mysterious, and can sometimes be sad. Hell, a nice guy who's life is basically to ferry souls to the 'other side' is bound to be sad every now and then.
Background/History: Nex was born on basically 'medieval' times. He lived working as a stable boy from a very young age, and when he was 17, he got deathly ill. Knowing that he was going to die soon, he tried to find a way to cheat death, so to speak, trying different assortments of things. This was a very dangerous time for such things, as everyone was very paranoid about witchcraft at the time. Basically what happened what his attempt to cheat death worked....in a way. He was punished for it, and was cursed to live forever as a reaper of death, sort of. He was destined to forever ferry the souls of the dead from this world on to the next, and so he did. For ages he has done this. He has seen the world change, evolve. He has seen empires rise and fall, and been there to take the souls of the dead on to the next world. He has seen people die of torture, in agony, and not been able to ease their pain. He has seen people die of their own stupidity, and he has seen people live who he wished would die. Though he easily could, he has never killed anyone, no matter what people think, or how much he has wanted to. He knows it is his place to observe and take people to whatever lies after death, but never to interfere, or the consequences would be disastrous.
The more years that passed, the more he suffered. Seeing so much death would take it's tole on anyone. Once he had fallen in love with a girl, but he never once told her this, for he knew that one day death would claim her, as well. When that day did come, he was there to take her on to whatever lies after death, though it broke his heart. Not once did he make any friends, or fall in love again, because he always knew that death would come for them, and he would live on for ages after they died of old age, and he knew he couldn't take that. But recently he has become lonely, and wishes he had someone that he could share his stories with, that he could confide in.
Desires: To make friends, and to find a really good friend, or even fall in love. He also wants to see if perhaps he can find a way to be human again, even if it kills him.
Extras: He doesn't really notice temperature differences. Basically it could be freezing cold out, and he wouldn't even notice. Or really hot, and he could wear layers of clothes and never notice. This is basically because he is always deathly cold, and you can tell this when if you touch him.
It's unknown whether Nex Messor is his real name, or if it's a name he gave himself after becoming a Reaper of sorts.
