Name: Ben Teras
Age: 23
Race: Human
Appearance: Ben's hair is the darkest of blacks. Complimenting his olive skin nicely. It is cut short as to not get in his way. If he lets it grow it becomes unruly. He doesn't let it grow. His eyes are a deep forest green. These eyes look both troubled and carefree. They are contradictory in every way. Show every emotion at once, you can never read Ben's intent in his eyes.
His build is much the opposite of his sister's. His is lithe and lanky. Not to the stage where he looks awkward. he has a warriors grace and any that would not see that by looking at him would learn soon enough. He is often in tunics and robes, clothes that conceal and protect but do not weigh him down. The regular garb of rangers. He hates anything restricting or heavy.
Personality: To call Ben passionate would be to call Halflings a little short, or Sauron a big meanie. Though he does not wear his heart on his sleeve. He keeps his emotions in check mostly except with Lucina. Though when he is pushed enough look out for the explosion of emotion. Over protective of those he cares about he will fight unyielding for those he cares about.
Ben doesn't know about cold anger, his is always heated. He fights with his heart foremost. His head can catch up later.
History: Ben is the youngest son of a line that can boast it's lineage of the old line of Stewards. His family is also related to the Royal Family of Villinia. The current ruling family are of the Teras clan, and the king's name is Ulrik. Ulrik, however, is sickly and it seems he will die with no heir of his loins. His only child has been Beatrice, a daughter of age with Ben. When she was a little girl she was cast from the court with her mother, Caitriona, and they came to live with Ulrik's sister who was sympathetic to their cause.
Beatrice was a princess, but she was raised like Ben's sister. Though Ben is the son of a duke (and a duke that appears to be in a position to inherit when his brother dies) He never allowed himself to be coddled. Always training making sure he got all the knowledge and skills he could. He excelled in both sword and bow. As well as living off the land. He is just capable being nomadic as living in one place. At time he prefers it.
His eldest brother has been groomed to take over the duchy. Now it appears he will rule a kingdom instead. Though Ben has no knowledge of this, he left the kingdom over three years ago. Living as a ranger in Silentil.
