Appearance/Background: Only the Gods knew what sorts of malignant instruments lay under the cloak of nothingness and blood, and even then there was room for doubt. Hood ever drawn, his face is concealed to those who would venture a look at the figure, save for the single faintly glowing orb that served as his left eye for the majority of his life. Claws ever extending and retracting, his gaze cold and full of dark intent, he moves from one town to the next to put his talents to use. And the ever-growing collection within his robes serves as a testament to that fact. Nearly everything he owns has been used to put an end to someone, and most have been imbued with the most primal of arcane magic, bound with the raw fury and despair of those they served to destroy. And one can never forget the countless souls freed from their mortal flesh by the most basic of weapons any feline is granted; his teeth, his claws, and his imagination.
A dark figure strides down the villages main street, looking for a place to rest. His dark cloak flows behind him, the sound of jingling metal faint but present. Was his wardrobe cliche? A bit perhaps, but he worked best at night, and the cloak rendered him all but invisible. The orange sun setting behind him made his arrival seem all the more ominous, though his mind was only on food and shelter at the moment. He paused only a moment before walking into the local pub, not bothering to read the sign. Aside from the muffled clanging of his unknown equipment, he made no sound as he approached the bar. As he asked the price for a room, his accent was immediately apparent. This was not his land, and only a fool would believe otherwise.
