Daigo

Been many things: Sword for hire, spy, explorer, scout, debt collector, seducer of women...Raised in the Pani culture, trained as a warrior in their ways, but has since learned the weapons and warfare of many different people. Mastered the art of the duel early on, later came to appreciate the art of tact and discretion. Seemingly has infinite patience, perhaps it's just him waiting for the optimal time to strike. Carries with him little more than a sword, dagger, a refined taste for wine, an appreciation for manners, decorum, silk finery and the beauty of femininity.

He stands 5'7'', weighs 155 and his physique is amply muscled yet lean.

His sword is two-handed and single-edged with a blade length of 26 inches. The blade was forged in the traditional style, differentially hardened-making it nearly immune to impact and shock damage and snapping it is highly improbable. The sword is carried in a wooden scabbard on his back, hung diagonally with the handle pointed toward the ground at his right side and locked into place with a peculiar locking mechanism. The scabbard is hexagonal and affords enough room inside for the blade to rotate, the significange of the design is known only to him.

Though raised a warrior, he was born to nobility, into one of the families that captured an island off the coast of the Northern Forest and turned it into a trading hub of some importance. He and his twin brother enjoyed a life of privilage until they came of age and begun the brutal warrior training. Though he endured it easily and developed a great aptitude for fighting, his brother did not. This began a rift between the two. It would seem evident that he was to become the favorite son, but his brother had other plans. Through his immense charisma and wordcraft, his brother managed to win all the favor of their parents and the comminuty, causing him to be cast to the wayside.This not only deepened the rift between he and his brother, but the rest of his family, as he was now left questioning his place among his own people, whom he had served up to that point loyally and without question. Acting on these complax emotions, he left, determined to carve out his own path and find his own meaning in life. So he wanders, fights, learns and all the while maintains a quiet dignified air about him.
