Appearance


``What does the Character look like?;;

Robert Lafayette has long white hair that reaches to his shoulders. As a human, it was raven black, but since his turning, he's braved the sun too many times and the stress on his body made his hair turn white. He wears a thick black cloak with hood. Under he wears a form fitting black mesh shirt with slightly baggy pants. His face is almost constantly half covered by a mesh mask that connects to his shirt. The skin tight aspect allows for free movement.

``Personality;; What are they like? Shayd is a difficult person to sum up. He's powerful, and courageous, but can't handle his own thoughts half the time. He is very forthcoming to strangers, but is not trusting of them at all. He's lived a long time for good reason. Over all, he keeps a cool head under every sort of pressure and while feeling proud of his students, he rarely ever shows it. The best compliment he's given a student as of late is "Adequate, now do it again."

``History;;
Robert was born in a higher middle class family in a valley in the mountain area in Revera. He was raised there with his sister Catherine Lafayette. At a young age, he learned how to track animals far and wide, and was rather skilled at finding them and trapping them. He had great skill at that, but his skill with a bow was not very well developed. So when he got older, he enlisted the help of an expert archer to go on hunting trips with him.

Further down the road, he even convinced his parents to allow his hunting partner to marry his sister. A few days before the wedding though, the man showed himself to be a vampire. He turned Robert and his whole family that night.

Robert spent a good while trying to track down his sister, who was driven mad by the transformation.

Upon doing so, he underwent training to become a master Assassin in order to better have the skills to track and kill his crazed sister. He found her after a wild man hunt though, and found that she had returned to her senses and instead went back to his life. Now a master Assassin, he spends his time training new recruits and taking down key political figures.

His current student and most powerful headache is Aemon the dragon.
