Warrior Of Bears

Name: Tyrael Ardinsol Age: 17 Nationality: Arafel Height: 6’3”/ 190.5 cm Weight: 176lbs/79.83 kg Hair color/length: Black in a waist length braid Eye color: Emerald Green Path: Gaidin Talent: Unnamed (sensitivity to the emotions and thoughts of carnivorous animals and if powerful enough allows the possessor to project their emotions to those same animals) Personality: Tyrael tends to be quiet around strangers or people he doesn’t really know rarely talking to people unless they are his friends and usually avoiding the gaze of those who aren’t. When he is around friends he is almost always talking always the center of attention and usually the one in the middle of everything. Tyrael makes friends easily but makes enemies faster. This is caused by his zero tolerance of ‘bullying’ and ‘teasing’ of people and he makes sure that the person who he catches doing it gets what they deserve. If he finds a group of people and they are picking on someone he will stand up for the person and if they are physically hurting that person then he will challenge the group to a fight. This is one of the ways he makes friends and one of the reasons he makes friends easily is that he doesn’t care where you come from what you look like or whether you are a noble, peasant or somewhere in between. Tyrael can have a slightly ‘foul’ mouth when he is either upset, tired or hungry and will usually say something and then as if realizing what he just said say something like “Wow…I am seriously out of it today…I should go get something to eat”. Having a large appetite and high metabolism Tyrael eats large quantities of food and the snacks he eats constantly tends to be food that you would take on a journey as it doesn’t spoil. Usually it isn’t even that he is hungry he just likes eating and as long as it is decent food he will eat it. In combat Tyrael tends to try and finish things as quickly as possible and has almost no concern for his personal safety. He will fight for anything he sees as something that he should fight for and almost always the ‘something’ is a just cause or someone he cares for. Tyrael prefers using two long knives held reversed so the blade is pointing downwards or using scimitars or other such swords that are curved. History: Born into one of the higher noble houses in Arafel Tyrael was taught all of the things that children learn in the borderlands from an early age as well as learning how to use knives and other weapons to defend himself. Learning from both his father and his fathers armsmen Tyrael became knowledgeable in the art of the sword and horsemanship. Tyrael got into many fights when he was young most of which were over insults that were completely logical in the way they were said and always true. This tended to outrage the person who usually had a bunch of friends or cronies and it ended up in a fight most of the time. This did not bother Tyrael as he fought best when fighting multiple foes (when all of them are unarmed or didn’t have knives or other sharp weapons) as he used it to his advantage always making sure that someone was between him and the others and using them as weapons swinging them towards each other and tripping them into each other. The first of such fights and by far the most memorable was at the age of 9 with a commoner by the name of Raphael who hated nobility for no other reason than they had things that he didn’t. Raphael and a bunch of his friends cornered Tyrael as he was walking home after a walk in the city streets. They bantered back and forth with insults and then Raphael decided to take a swing at Tyrael which Tyrael diverted by raising his arm. They grappled for a bit until Tyrael managed to pin Raphael to the ground and had his knee against the boys throat. Tyrael informed Raphael that if he left him alone and didn't bother him again he would let him up otherwise he would have to hurt him. Raphael refused to answer and one of his friends cam up and punched Tyrael in the side of the head which cause Tyrael to slide and rather than falling he rolled over and got up onto his feet. They bantered back and forth some more and then Raphael tried hitting him again but this time Tyrael grabbed his arm and held it out to the side. Since Raphael was stronger and more coordinated in his right arm he was incapable of hitting Tyrael hard enough to cause damage and since Tyraels right arm was free and he had the luck to have limited ambidexterity he was able to hit Raphael hard enough to drop him to the ground and leave him there with a bloody nose and a shocked look on his face. Raphaels friends would have tried to beat up Tyrael if one of the city guard hadn't come walking by and stopped everything and in the middle of the guard reprimanding the boys Tyrael slipped away. Fights continued throughout Tyraels life most of them won by Tyrael or at least he came out the better in most of them. The only one that in his memory that he had every lost was when he was attacked from behind and slammed into the ground and then pummeled by kicks and punches till he was bleeding although none of his bones were broken he did have a bunch of bruises. Tyrael never did find out who had done it but he thought it was probably someone who he had beaten before and had decided to take revenge. A year or so later Tyrael was walking in a forest that was near the city before breakfast and came upon a couple bear cubs that were sniffing at what appeared to be their mothers corpse. The mother bear had been attacked by people who obviously weren't there for food and probably were just having some fun. Wounds from swords and bladed weapons of some sort covered the body and a few arrows stuck out of the back as if she had been trying to run from those who had done this. Tyrael attempted to approach the body and the cubs growled at him which he stopped in his tracks so as not to scare the cubs off. Tyrael sat down on the ground cross legged and leaning against a tree to wait and see what the cubs would do. As Tyrael sat there the cubs continued snuffling at the body and then walked off towards a berry bush, this reminded Tyrael that he had not yet had breakfast and that the cubs would probably be hungry too so he decided to buy some meat from the butcher on his way back. Tyrael walked back home and didn't tell anyone about the cubs because he wanted to help them and he didn't know what his parents would do if they found out he had been playing with dangerous wild animals. After breakfast and his lessons but before lunch he walked back to the place where the cubs had been with a sack of raw beef fresh from the butcher as well as a few apples and other fruit. When he arrived he placed the sack open in front of him and the apples and other fruit leading up to it in a trail kind of way. The cubs soon came out at the smell of food and at the all the fruit except what was within 5 feet of Tyrael. Tyrael waited confidently well within to the afternoon on the cubs and just when he was beginning to be frustrated by the animal refusal to come near him one of them began slowly making its way towards him. Inch by Inch the cub came closer and closer until ti was close enough to touch, and that was exactly what he did do. But something unexpected happened that surprised him so much he almost smashed his head into the tree he had been leaning against. As soon as he touched the cub a wave of feeling and emotion had flooded into him and he knew exactly what the cub wanted and what it thought of him. This was the beginning of Tyraels self proclaimed legend, for he became well known as the boy who had tamed not one but two White Thunder Bear cubs known for the noise the adults make when walking due to their large size and the color of their fur. The cubs went everywhere he went and he took care of them feeding them and when they got larger they gave him rides wherever he went. This was all aided by his new-found ability and because of it his life drastically improved. As the years went on he grew and so did the cubs and by the time he was 16 they had reached a height of 10 feet when standing on their hind legs. By this time he had found that the brother and sister bear were becoming increasingly harder to look after not because of how much they ate but the way they acted around people and the way people reacted to them as most people were scared of them or thought that they were dangerous so Tyrael decided it would be best for them to leave and go somewhere where they could be respected and not feared. He settled on Tar Valon as that was a place where they not only would be unfeared but they would also be welcomed if any of the rumors he had heard about happenings in the tower were to be beleived. Tyrael left his home supplied with packs of a weeks worth of food for both bears (carried on their backs of course) and the same for him as well as 50 gold crowns and the same in silver. He also brought along his fighting knives one from an uncle another from his grandfather and scimitars both of which he had been given to him by his father. He traveled along the river erinen so that the bears could fish and he could avoid as many people as possible. They traveled for days eventually reaching the place where the river was closest to Tar Valon. Here he left the Bears in a copse of trees about 10 miles from the city and then he walked all the way to the tower and there he stands wondering what to do next.

Before I go further in my History I would like to ask for an ability that isn't on the list and would most likely be considered custom. What I want to be able to do is talk to animals...or rather sense their feeling and be able to project my feelings or some such thing...sorta like wolfkin but with all animals...or it could be just with carnivorous animals. But specifically what I want him to be able to do is talk to two bears that he meets as cubs when he is 11 and who were orphaned when they were cubs. I don't really care how he is able to talk to them and if one of the admins has an idea of what the talent entails or anyone else has an idea that is acceptable to an admin then I would be glad to have it. |

That's an interesting idea. The easiest way to go about it is to have Tyrael just to be particularly gifted in reading the actions of animals, ie. being able to recognize which sort of actions and motions animals do when they are angry or happy or whatnot. That could happen through being around wild animals a lot during his childhood so he is able to learn it. However, that can't really work the other way around, so the animals would not be able to read his emotions. We could have it as an unknown talent, but I wouldn't be comfortable with going as far as the wolfkin Talent goes. Perhaps it could be just a sensitivity to the emotions of animals, carnivorous animals in particular, so powerful that Tyrael can to some degree project his own emotions to animals. When he comes to the Tower, he can keep it a secret, or if he tells someone then Tyrael would be tested and examined by the Aes Sedai and Asha'man. Do keep in mind that you will have to wait for our war scheme to be finished before you can write the last years in your biography, because the war will have affected the world he lives in. It will be about one year after the war when Tyrael joins the Garrison. |

Okay if having it as an unknown talent is acceptable then that works perfect and to me works out the best and having it as a sensitivity in the way you describe it sounds like a good idea.
Okay dokie I will do that then. |

I really like the bio and the character. I am a little worried that Tyrael doesn't seem to have a lot of weaknesses, except an occasional foul mouth, because he has so many good points- he's an all-around nice guy, he's strong and can fight, etc. I don't have any problems with those things, just make sure you balance them with something. Approved.
