PHYSICALITY[/u]
- Height: 6’3”
- Weight: 15.14 stone (212 lbs)
- Appearance: At 6’3”, Eko is a towering figure. Usually found near a forge, sweating a river between the corded muscles of his back and chest, racing alongside the various scars that cris-cross across his body, fully visible through the sleeveless mesh he wears when crafting his wares, he ties his pale blond hair back in a loose ponytail to keep it from singeing in the fiery coals. Usually, he is unsuccessful and the charred ends of his hair are evidence to that. Underneath the sleeveless mesh, sweat stained white cloth wraps around his torso and disappears unseen behind his leather apron to continue down his left leg to about knee height. Underneath the darkened leather apron are a pair of loose fitting pants as dark as the coals used to light his furnace. Brought forth from his azure rimmed, leather adorned hands, sparks flash off the steel, reflected in his blue eyes in the dimness of the room as if they were the actual cause of the sudden flashes of light. A few days of growth stubble his cheeks while the meticulously trimmed strap of hair that rims his hardened mouth brightens his tanned skin. Rounding out the features of his face is the chunk of flesh missing from his right ear, nearly throwing the balance of his face completely off kilter. Even with the long locks of fair hair surrounding it, it is an unmistakable missing piece that has been lost to time. When not by his forge, Eko dons a flowing black duster with bright blue embroidery around the sleeves in to form of various weapons of his trade. On his back is the swirling cross sigil he hammers into every piece of steel he works to let everyone know whose masterpiece they wield.
COGNITION[/u]
- Personality: For all the harshness of his appearance, Eko is an affable fellow as long as you respect his steel. He is quick to make friends and is often quicker with his tongue to jibe them, which his master has called sharper than any sword he has ever forged. Still, he is an intense young man when it comes to his work at the forge. He believes that he will create something that will make even the blades of the Swordsmen of the Mist pale in comparison. That is, until his work started to become tainted by the visions that started to plague his dreams. As he forged, he went into a trance brought about by the rhythmic singing of the metal clanging against metal but those trances have turned dark and his weapons have become twisted in its wake. The sudden difficulty of his craft has left the large man in a depressive slump which the dark thoughts have taken hold of, making him more prone to violent outbursts and fits of uncontrollable rage. He has secluded himself in his forge but the more and more he attempts to force the issue, the worse his wares become. Now, the young man broods about his situation and has turned to other pursuits in order to see if he can work the demons from his forge before he succumbs to them.
- Alignment: Neutral
- Allegiance: Mizu no Kuni, follower of the Seven Swordsmen
- Quirks & Tendencies: -Tends to ignore everything around him when crafting, leaving him vulnerable to all sorts of nasty things.
-Finds honor in fighting weapon to weapon so if an opponent’s weapon were to break in battle, he would discard his own, taking pride in the fact his weapon was the superior. Conversely, if his weapon were to break, he would go into a fiery rage that would not stop until either his opponent or himself were defeated. - Likes & Dislikes:
Likes: Metallurgy (duh)
Weapon Play
Fire
A hard day’s work.
A hot bath after a hard day’s work.
Piercings on women (thinks the combination of metal and flesh is extremely attractive)
Dislikes: Cowards
Lazy bastards
A broken weapon
His father
Sailing
