Appearance; He's a rather scrawny man. Lean, but slightly muscular. Never good looking, but never hideous. Wears a collection of body armors meshed together to create a sort of suit, pants and sleeves included. He wears a green overcoat over this, which has dark splotches over it. He says that this is camouflage, but it is actually dirt. Wears a cracked "Doughboy" Brodie-style helmet. No gloves, he dislikes the feel of those. He wears grey pants, nothing special about that. He also has boots, which are in a style of half combat, and half hiking. Always sports a cocky smile in any situation, even when laughing is not preferred. His sword is on his back when not drawn, and his gun is by his side (Witcher + bounty hunter = good idea?). He is never clean, but this never raises any problems.

Personality; The only thing he cares about are his friends, his enemies, and nothing much else. He's rather cocky, and loves to tell puns. This never helps anyone. He doesn't care about the draw-backs of killing: it's his job to do it. He will be the one to tell his men to ready their weapons and aim, order them to "Unleash Hell", then rush into the enemy ranks as his men are reloading. He often wins his battles by doing this, which baffles everyone. He gives money to the poor, which often is his own. He is the most well respected man in the company, and one of the poorest men in the world. He is a baffling man.

Weaponry; A Katzbalger style sword; "A Katzbalger is a short Renaissance arming sword, notable for its sturdy build and a distinctive s-shaped or figure-8 shaped guard. Measuring 70–80 cm long and weighing 0.8-1.5 kg, it was the signature blade of the Landsknecht." -Wikipedia/ Think of it as a saber. Unique enough to stand out among other weapons, yet not too well known.

A Sten Mk VI style rifle; "The STEN (or Sten gun) was a family of British sub-machine guns chambered in 9×19mm and used extensively by British and Commonwealth forces throughout World War II and the Korean War. They were notable for having a simple design and very low production cost making them effective insurgency weapons for resistance groups." -Wikipedia/ I just like the look of the gun.

Abilities; None to speak of. That is interesting, and a key plot point. He is simply a soldier; he's not a hunter, or a hero. He's just a man doing his job, who often runs into trouble with people above him in every way possible.

Backstory; At the age of fourteen, his family was killed. You see, his family was living in Menagerie. Why? They were criminals, and where else to live in except a land full of outlaws? There was one problem, though. They were human. Eventually, they were killed by the Faunus, leaving Robert alone. Why didn't they kill him? He was an only child, and no one wants to kill children. So, Robert was left alone in his house, having to bury both the thoughts of his family, and his relatives. At age fifteen, he joined a civil war ravaging the continent. It is unclear whose side this was on, because there were many civil wars, and many factions. By age seventeen, he was an established soldier, fighting an endless war with no meaning. While he loved to fight, he grew tired of seeing only sand and blood. By age nineteen, he had come to the kingdom of Mistral, so he could see green, white, and blood. He set up a small band of criminals to rob from the rich, because no one else had anything good. By the age of twenty, he gave most of their earning to the poor, so that if they ever became rich, he would have new targets. Harassment of Haven started from this, though no real assault was ever committed. It was full of huntsmen, and thieves are no match to them. This leaves Robert and his band near the location of Volume 4, if it takes place there. What happens next is not up to me to decide.



And that is it! That's all I have on my personal character. Sorry if this setup seemed confusing; I have no idea how to set anything else up, so I just did it my way. If you have any suggestions about this character, or tips, or anything, just say anything. I have no idea how to connect an account to this, so you can email me at eli.nations@gmail.com. Just, please, don't spam it with anything inappropriate. Don't distress the messenger.

Godspeed, whoever this is addressed to!
