Name: King of Infernia, Kasinn Aniran
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Class: Great Lord
Appearance: Tall, fierce, and dressed in red, gold, and black, Kasinn is inmistakably the king of Infernia. His hair is best described as a mane- long, way too long. Atop his head sits the Infernian crown, similarly colored to his robes and armor. Gold with black and red jewels. Whilst out of combat, he wears the mentioned robes, ornate and extravagant, but in reality very thin. Because y'know. Semi-Active volcano. In battle, Kasinn loses the robes in favor of plated armor. Once again, black and gold with the insignia of Infernia upon the pauldrons. In his armor, he also dons a cape. Some say he resembles his father when he was young. But he'll just tell you he's a shining hero that history shall recall, not a pitiable king who ran a dying country.
Personality: A rather ambitious man, Kasinn simply wants to see his people healthy and prospering. Even if it means he must take every other country under them. Some call him greedy, some call him a tyrant, but he calls himself a savior. For he believes his long term plans will ensure the survival of Aeridan as a whole, not to mention be a mutual benefit.
In a way, some could call him an optimist. He expects the four countries to work in harmony once he unites them under one banner. Of course, he's also a pessimist, since the reason he started the war was because he was certain his fellow royals would laugh his plans out of the room.
He presents himself to the people as a shining beacon of light, someone who will relieve them of their hardships and bring them to new lands. Indeed, he shall. His people are everything to him- and freeing them from the dredges of Infernia is his ultimate goal. There's no cost too great for the next generation. No matter how many men have their blood spilled, if his achievement comes to realization then he will view it as a success.
Equipment: Since Kasinn will likely not meet his fate on the field of battle, he doesn't have much equipment besides his weapons to use. Though, at all times he carries sealed letters on his personage...He hasn't told anyone for whom they are for.
Weapons: Clarent, a royal sword of passage. Wielded by his father before him. Said to have been used by an ancient descendant to slay a dragon. Colored gold and black, presumably from whatever it was crafted out of. His shield is Calad, similarly wielded by his father once. Just as his sword is, colored gold and black, with a red Infernia symbol proudly displayed.
Positive Attributes: Intelligence, Charisma - He has to be both of these, lest he be overthrown by the masses of unsavory folks. There's enough weight on his shoulders without worrying of revolts.
Negative Attributes: Dexterity - Truth be told, his sword hand is not an elegant one.
Backstory: Born as eldest child to the Infernian throne, Kasinn has seen the throes of Infernia. While the palace walls may of been magically cooled for convenience, you'd have to be incredibly sheltered to not see the blatant awfulness of Infernia. With their only major export being ore, and food only coming from what little fertile land was near the border and got imported in. Animal life was scarce, and the people were displeased.
He's theorized his plan and mulled it long before he ascended to power. Seeing Iuppiter hoard their advancements. Yantralia watching from their fertile lands. Canyotopia and their merchant empire. So he's quietly influenced things. Encouraged people to join the army. Influenced his father to increase military budgets. Slowly, but surely, he assured when the time came he could strike as a viper.
And when it did, he was not surprised when some were displeased. Indeed, the odds were against them. But Kasinn thought himself a smart man. And so, to insure his hold on the army, he made sure that any influential figures who could go against them- say, a general of high regard -would be dealt with. And publicly executed. If you weren't with him, you were against him, and a future of happiness. He could convince the people against them. Why live in squalor and ash? There was so much more out there, bandits and beasts be damned.
He knows the path ahead won't be easy. He's well aware of the risks. But once his country comes to realization- no matter whose blood was spilled, no matter how many good men died, they did so to establish a future for their children, and their children! An era of peace and prosperity. He knew that he would be a hero of history to come.
Family: His deceased father and mother left him successor to the throne. I assume there are some siblings who may or may not approve of his methods.
Friends: He's probably well associated with what few noble families exist in Infernia. As well as associated with any generals and their families. Provided he hasn't killed them cough cough Adrian cough
Homeland: Infernia
Allegiance: Gee. Who do you think the King of Infernia is allied with.
Extra: Man who genuinely believes what he's doing is right, and is leading his nation with the promise of a better tomorrow? Or power hungry tyrant who scares his populace into place by showing that no one is safe if they as much as dare disrupt his plan. I dunno. Your choice.
But if any of you guys think you got a better idea...well might as well execute it, because mines still pretty boring lol, he might have more depth but he's not as hammy as candy-stealing puppy kicker. And a lot less fun to kill.
