History:
Thex the Slayer's was born under the sign of Nekheros the Vulture on the first Vanday of Vanger. The day was stark and cold, but his broodmates didn't survive. Thex did because he fed on them. His brood mother birthed him in the wilds of the Titanshome Mountains. She never lasted more than a week after his birth. There he stalked and hunted, traveling with a small band of Twisted. Though they tried to convert him, his hardy nature made impossible for them to turn him away from his true nature. They eventually drove him out, but not before he had killed many would be human adventures, also acquiring his latest prize, clothborn platemail. Thex continued on, growing in skill and keeping to himself. He was a loner but such was his nature. While Thex was not evil or cruel like many of his kind were wont to be, neither was he good. He worked on to his own benefit. His life has been one of constant struggle to survive. Now he looks to find new challenges, as he become something of a local legend, in the Titanshome, calling himself Thex the Slayer. He hope one day to command the same respect that others of his kind now, such as Hassek Ruukbrood. While he acknowledges no god, he respects their power and that of clerics. Already one of them, a cleric/fighter of Corean, wounded him greatly. At most, he pays homage only to his founder, Hrinnruk and the Dame of Storms, Lethene. Denev he also accepts but only for her uncaring side. Everyone and everything else he view with disdain. He hopes one day though to create his own form of Vigils, but on his terms.
Currently now he's employed by a Calastian tradesmen to help hunt and protect valuable cargo going to and from Zamon in Zathiske. He prefers the cooler climes in Darakenee and can often be found in a small trading town called Rivenwood, some miles south of Meliad.
Appearance and personality:
Deep brown fur that he often colors to match the locale around him. Example: if he's in a heavy, wooded area, he will often dye parts of his fur green, or some greenish tinge, to help to aid in his task. This gives him a +1 bonus to his Hide checks. Deep crimson eyes Scar over right nostril, has a birthmark of Nekheros on his right hip. He's very tall for his race. He enjoys the hunt and stalking his quarry, always alone. Thex is very proud of his titanspawn heritage
