Player: Jordan
Name: Zhen Anguo ('Guo for short)
Age: 17
Appearance: 'Guo is of an average height for his age, just under six foot, with a thin but well toned physique. He wears a green vest which buttons up the side and has a design running up the ribs, a pair of green pants which are somewhat baggy, held in place by dark brown cloth around the waist which acts as a belt, he wears grey shin high boots on his feet and a pair of leather gauntlets on his wrists which run up to just beneath the elbow. 'Guo has short, spiked brown hair which he ties back with some green cloth which falls into two long tails which lead to the middle of his back. He's known to place a flower into the knot of his hair.
Personality: Zhen Anguo is a peaceful soul, he lives a life of tranquility with his brother Ping and his father Yu. All three regularly meditate and pray together and have great respect for the world around them, despite their world being an island of salt. Yes, the Zhen family made its home in Vuoto, in the copse of skinny trees around Abyssus to be exact. Such a home has had a profound effect on 'Guo's personality, he never takes anything for granted and will always try to pursue peace, for even the home of the greatest evil may later become host to a needy family. He does however, realise that peace is not always accepted and has no qualms in fighting for his views.
Alignment: Peace, and (unbeknownst to him) the Moon of Vuoto, Kerrian.
Occupation: One of the only Vuoton monks beside himself and his father. A Lunar Knight whose unknown skills are yet to be tapped.
Equipment: Nothing, save his weapon, White Moon Dragon. 'Guo believes in living off of the land, and does as such. Although secretly he carries a small flask of salt water, used in rituals.
Weapons: White Moon Dragon, a large crescent blade halberd, it was his fathers before it was passed down onto him, despite the blade just standing taller than him, 'Guo can wield the large weapon with ease, and is deadly when provoked.
Combat: 'Guo will avoid fighting if possible, but when he is drawn into combat, he uses White Moon Dragon with ease, using the weapons grand reach to his advantage, he likes to keep his distance and use a flurry of swings, slashes and thrusts.
Magic: 'Guo knows some basic nature based magic taught to him by his father, but it is unpolished and crude, meaning he can do little but sense life forms at the moment, although of trained he could hold promise of being a good sensor and tracker thanks to his acceptance of nature and it's ways.
History: Zhen Anguo's history is uneventful to say the least. His family can trace their ancestry back to the kingdom of Krustallos where the Zhen clan were great warriors, usually policing or guarding the city. Since the kingdoms destruction, his family had fallen on harder times, until eventually, one man names Zhen Yu decided that he could no longer live in the decadent ruins of Krustallos. Leaving, he wandered the land for a time before he met and fell in love with a young woman from Chalybs. Coming together the two represented urbanisation and naturalism, and Zhen Sheng (taking Yu's family name) eventually bore him three sons whom they named Ping, Xiao and Anguo.
The family travelled for a while before they eventually ended up in Unda, they were enjoying the local coasts when they were come upon by local brigands who demanded all of their belongings. Yu hefted his nightly halberd into battle and fought the brigands, whilst Sheng ran with their children. They were pursued by some more of the bandits who threw stones and branche at them to slow down, Sheng cradled her children to her chest with great difficulty before a branch caught her in the leg, she stumbled and fell and her children were knocked to the floor with a shriek from their mother.
Ping and Anguo survived, Xing did not. Not wanting the death of a child on their hands, the bandits retreated and a wounded Yu caught up with his family to see a sight more painful than any cut, deeper than any slash, more stinging than any burn and more visible than any scar. His wife, Sheng, cradled her two living children to her chest and wept over the corpse of a small, still bundle. Yu dropped his halberd and rushed to his family, embracing them, both mother and father would weep for days on end, Yu would busy himself with his children and watch them grow, Sheng sank into depression and shied away from the world, the sight of her growing children only saddened her at the thought of what Xian would miss out on.
One sunny morning in Alberisato, when Anguo turned 5, Yu found Sheng hanging from the branches of the tree that their small house they had rented rested upon. He reflected how his wife had told him that she was living with only three quarters of her soul, how a part of her was missing and only created a void that could never properly be filled again, it could be shrunk, minimalised, but never filled. Yu foud solace in the reflection, and decided that a life of thought and peace was what he needed. Taking his two sons, he went home, to Vuoto, to a small copse of trees around the former home of Trucido Damnedblood. There, he lived off the land and raised his sons to do the same, and all three became monks of Vuoto an of nature in general. None of them thought anything of the small, round, dark circle on 'Guo's shoulder blade that he had had since birth.
But the moon of Vuoto thought much of it. Much of it indeed.
Now 17, Anguo is leaving home on a pilgrimage around Allorum as his father, mother and brother did before him. When his father left, he found his mother, when Ping left last year, he found Cai whom he was now engaged to. 'Guo didn't want that, he had never really thought about his future, he wanted to go to Alberisato though, to pay his respects.
The moon would have other plans though.
