  • Description

    Coming from southern Araegia, where the sun burns brighter than in the north, Alaric has tanned skin, mostly smooth apart from the occasional wrinkle around his eyes. Along with his dark brown hair and hazel eyes, Alaric has always looked rugged despite his otherwise flawless appearance. Always polite and with a warm smile, he manages to find friends wherever he goes. There is a shine to his eyes however, that betrays a mischievousness underneath.

    While tall and broad shouldered, Alaric is certainly thinner than his fellow knights. While they exude a strength and brute force, Alaric prefers to be faster, dexterous and more nimble that any other. Rather than be armoured head to toe, Alaric prefers to wear a simple breastplate over chainmail, segmented armour along his arms and gauntlets and shinguards. Thick leather trousers with reinforced knee guards allow him to move quickly and efficiently, making the most of his speed.

    When not dressed for battle, Alaric prefers fine clothes. Silks, velvet, only the finest fabrics. He keeps his colours dark and muted, although will wear brighter colours if the situation demands.
