Title:
Lord Of The County Of Pollastranna, & Warrior Chief Of The East.

Occupation: Lord of the villages of Pollastranna, Duth, Im'ma and Trus, and Warrior Chief Of The East Legions Of The Imperial Kingdom.

Description:
Aklex stands about 6’1”ft tall. He has a muscular build, and naturally tan skin. A series of black and red tattoo’s cover his body. His hair, which is raven black, is cut to just above his shoulders, and his eyes are black, with red rings around the pupils. His wings, which are unique because they are both feathered, are black with red streaks, and his tail, a demon like tail, is the same colour. He also has deadly fangs, and claws.

Aklex normally wears his armour at all times, but when he goes out in public and wishes to be discreet, he wears a long black cloak over it.

Equipment:
Sarsh – Sarsh is more animal than equipment. He is an intelligent magical being native to Deek Island. He looks something like a black jaguar, but with purple crystal spikes that run down his spine and which are also present on his shoulders. Another crystal spike is on the end of his tail. He was born on Deek, but escaped before the disaster. He is at least three thousand years old, but he has forgotten his own age, and he is one of Lord Aklexander's best friends. In fact he was there a Aklex's birth and had been a companion of Lord Trion von Briestone le Tome, Aklex's father, before his death.

Sword Of Icara (http://img1.lln.crunchyroll.com/i/spire3/04122008/b/0/2/1/b02137cfe1c1b0_full.jpg) - An ancient and powerful sword which Icara himself forged. Aklex was gifted it by the Wizards of Icara. The sword is made from an unknown metal, and it can cut almost any materiel.

Armour – The armour Aklex wears is magically infused to protect Aklex from weaker spells, while the hardened metal it is made from can deflect arrows, snap blades and will not melt even when a dragon breaths on it. The armour can’t withstand everything though, and weapons similar to Sarsh and the Sword Of Icara will penetrate it. It is black with scarlet streaks, and has no helmet. The gloves are toughened leather, with no metal, and the boots are black leather, also very tough. The armour is all very light, and can be summoned by Aklex via a magical command.

Skills:
Bow-markmanship, slight magical training, hand-to-hand combat training, swordsmanship, and language skills.

History:
Aklex is the last of a long line of ancient warriors, who have long been favoured by the gods and held on to the seat of Pollastranna and the position of Warrior Chief of The East Legions. His mother was the sister of the queen, and his father one of the most notable von Briestone le Tomes ever, so Aklex always strove to be better than them. He fell in love at 18 with the 19 year old Crown Princess, and after a courtship of 3 years, he married her, when he was only 21 and she 22. His wife, the Princess Dailean, gave birth to their first child a year after they were married. Young Jonathan was a perfect child, always polite, and gentlemanly, and always standing up for his friends and family.

Their second child, Dollian, was born two years after Jonathan. Three years later there third child, Lochlan, was born. It was on the night of his birth that disaster struck. A fleet of pirates had attacked the part of the Pilzaviya coast that Aklex ruled, and he had been called away to do battle. Lochlan was born perfectly, and the only thing wrong at first was that his father was not there, but during the night, while Lady von Briestone le Tome slept, a legion of 2000 Lesser Demonics attacked the fortress. The monstrous creatures quickly dispatched the forces not called away by the pirates, and they ripped apart the castle, brick-by-brick.

When Aklex returned the castle was a burnt out shell. Every tower had been toppled, the palace Aklex had built for his wife had been burnt to the ground, the walls where cracked, and the gatehouse had been turned to a pile of rubble. Aklex found 5 year old Jonathan gutted and hung on a cross in the castle courtyard. Dollian was found drowned in the kitchen well, and young Lochlan had been spread through the heart by an arrow, while his mother still clutched him. Lady Dailean had died from that same arrow, while fleeing down a secret passage.

Aklex rebuilt the castle, named it Dailean Keep, and spent a large section of his family’s fortune on it. The Keep soon rivalled Treska in majesty, and statues and monuments to Dailean, Dollian, Lochlan and Jonathan were constructed all over the castle. After the completion of the castle Aklex gave control of it to his best friend and most trusted adviser, and withdrew in to himself. He began to wander the land, killing every Lesser Demonics he encountered.

At one time he saved one of the Wizards of Icara from a hoard of Lesser Demonics that had cornered the Wizard in a canyon. The Wizard thanked him, and Aklex was taken to meet the council of Wizards. They gave him the Sword of Icara and wished him safety, and offered him refuge with them at any time he wished.

Since then Aklex has begun travelling. Helping poor widows, frightened pheasants and other helpless people fight of tyrants, beasts and other evils as he wanders. He occasionally takes up quests and jobs to earn gold, and he has hoarded himself a considerable fortune in the 6 years since his wife and children’s deaths.
