[sblock=background]Ethan was the son of a poor farmer and his poor wife. He could barely remember them, but honestly had no idea of where they went or how he got seperated from them. He was raised by a man name Markot, well, more of grew up serving Markot. Ethan was a slave.
Markot had been his master for close to two decades. He was a waste of a life, a petty merchant pretending to be more than he truly was. Ethan had done everything from tend his cleaning his house to delivering his messages. He even fought for sport a couple of times. Markot viewed himself a noble of some imaginary noble house, a view that often made the true noble families look upon him with distaste. He truly had no place in the society that he was surrounded by.
It started simple; a loaf of bread here or some wine there. After a couple of years he stole bigger things, like his prize possession: a barbed dagger. The dagger was supposedly a gift from a king of some sort, but that was probably a lie. Either way, Ethan loved how badly the missing dagger bothered his master. Ethan began to forge letters and use other means to diminish his "masters" honor.
He was caught by Markot one fateful day, and punished severly. Beaten and whipped, he couldn't walk for days. Markot had him tied to his bed, yet had his wounds tended. Ethan had seen it happen before, he intended to stretch out his torture for as long as possible. The wounds had barely began healing as he was dealt his next set of punishment.
Ethan awoke a day later, still cut and bleeding. The blood made the knots in his ropes loosen and he managed to wiggle himself free. Ethan grabbed his dagger and managed to sneak into Markots room. The "noble" would never see the following morning. Ethan hurriedly packed his things and ventured out. A slave........ a free man. His own man. He felt free, yet lost and soon fell into a dark life. A life focused on ending the lives of others. In this simple act, he found himself. The pain and the death that was his life. [/sblock]
[sblock=Appearance]
Ethan is average height and weight. He is careful to keep himself clean shaven and his hair cut short. He has a single scar below his right eye, caused by the ring of his previous master. His back is another matter, it looks like one huge scar. Some of his whipping scars wrap around his body to his midsection and one is visible on his chest.
He dresses however he decides is appropriate for what he feels like doing. He may pose as a begger, in poor rotting peasants clothes or walk around with his nose high in the air, acting like a noble.

[sblock=Personality]
Ethan has a dual personality, or at least it seems that way. Ethan can be kind and very personable. He gives whatever he can to the church, which he visits at least once a week. He has even given food the the beggers around the town. Ethan's other side.......is quite different. It's patient. It's cold. It's the killer side of him. The side that allowed him to murder his previous master. It allows him to view death from a distance. To see pain as hollow. He switches over whenever needed, and can switch back just as fast.

ooc: Hope that is okay. I may work on it some more later.
