THIS CHARACTER IS NOT YET SANCTIONED FOR PLAY, THIS WIKI IS A PLACEHOLDER FOR MY CHARACTER CONCEPT AND TO GENERATE CHARACTER TIES FOR PLAY
Mask
Sundowner looks like your classic homeless veteran. 6' 2", 180 lbs, blond hair cut close or shaved, blue eyes, tattered jeans and and old army jacket. He has that look of one who is wise to the streets - well traveled and beaten down by society but angry and ready to strike back. Where you walk down the street and avert your eyes from the homeless, you cross the street to the other side rather than come to close to him. He is the underside of society that will not be forgotten. He is the angry side ready to strike back at those who ignore or mistreat the homeless.
Mien
When the mask is gone you can see the sky in his eyes. It is not the calm blue of a clear day but that of lightning and movement. His body takes an ethereal quality with the crackle of static electricity that would give a cat a heart attack. His body visibly radiates heat in an oppressive type of way.
Personality
On a good day he doesn’t seem much different than any other homeless person, on a bad day he will either talk your head off or just sit there in a depressed mood. Whichever it is, there are triggers of a haunted past that reach into the deepest recesses of his psyche and cause him to snap where he fights like a cornered animal or runs like hell is chasing him. He was taken as a man and turned into something else - today he seeks to turn what was done to him into a weapon against the fae. Whether he lives or dies does not matter - only that he fought with no quarter given till the end.
