Details
Appearance: Well built and muscular. Faine reaches 6ft and has dyed his hair red to match with his dragon partner. His blue eyes are quite piercing due to the contrast, and never reveal his intentions. His facial expression is usually unreadable, a mask he prefers to keep in place rather than expose his emotions. His skin is slightly tanned, due to all the time he spends flying with his dragon, and getting embroiled in battles. A black tribal tattoo of a dragon adorns his right cheek. His attire consists of a long red hooded coat, which is fire proof, and a guard mask with which he covers the lower half of his face. Underneath his coat, he tends to wear dark clothes which fit close to his body, boots, shin guards and his sword belt, to which he always attaches his whip. Shin guards and gauntlets are also foud on him more often than not to protect against Valanur's scales.
Personality: Faine is a quiet man. He prefers that when he speaks, he speaks with meaning and authority. He rarely shows his emotions, preferring to bottle them up in a manner typical of a soldier. He is, however, a caring man- as far as non-humans are concerned, and when he is not training his men, or flying on his long time friend and battle partner, Valanur, he is often found overseeing younger clan members who are attempting to tame, refusing to allow any kind of abuse to take place. However, three things dominate his personality more than anything else; Justice, Loyalty and Honour.
Other: Faine, though gifted at taming his beloved reptiles, only rides with his much beloved red dragon, Valanur, who he sees as his brother. Valanur breathes fire, and is himself famed for feats of great bravery shown in battle- that and his notorious flying techniques, allowing him to attack with speed and deadly effect.
History: Faine was born and raised as a Droncras. Despite the deceit and dangerous politics occurring within the clan, Faine managed to retain a sense of personal justice and honour- qualities he learnt from his dragon, Valanur. Despite his powerful family links within the clan, Faine deigned not to become embroiled in the feuds and complex politics, choosing instead to simply learn from the dragons and how to tame and befriend them. Having stongly bonded with Valanur at a young age, Faine naturally became his tamer and rider. However, his father, keen not to have his son appear weak, insisted upon Faine's taking some position, and thus had him begin to train amongst the soldiers- from whose ranks he quickly ascended. Proving himself a capable soldier and skilled strategist, Faine became the Knight Commander of the clan, taking over from the last commander who died in battle against the Venriks. Over the years, through the battles and the deaths he himself caused, Faine gradually withdrew into himself, and now stands as a somewhat enigmatic, yet at the same time, highly respected individual.
