Name: Talon Runningwolf (Aka Speirr)
Age: 1,200, appears 30
Race (Both current and before death if applicable): Celtic cheiftian, Dark-Hunter
Equipment: Has a full arsenal of custom made retractable swords, daggers, and Celtic sraeds made for him esspecially by a Dorean Squire out in the midwest. Is often willing to led his sraeds out to other Hunters, since he seems to have a stock pile of the wicked round three bladed things. Throw it and watch the fun and dust ensue.
Special Abilities: Telekinesis, ability to speak to the spirits of the dead (These are refered to as guides.)
Appearance: As with all Dark-Hunters his eyes are an inky black. Tall and powerfully built, he looks every inch like an ancient warrior. His reddish blonde hair falls to his shoulders, with three small braids at his temple hanging to his chest. Always dresses in black, which seems to be the norm for all Dark-Hunters, he has custom made leather clothing…and would never let denim touch his skin. He wears a leather jacket with celtic knot painting down one arm and over half the back…this mirrors the red and gold tattoo that was long ago tapped into his skin by his uncle. It covers one entire arm and half his back and chest, though its rare anyone ever sees the whole thing at once.
Likes: Chicory Coffee, Beignets, and talking on the phone with the viking Dark-Hunter, Wulf, who lives in Montana.
Dislikes: Health food, denim, and the color pink.
Cause of Death and Explanation (Dark-Hunters only…Note Were-Hunters in rare causes can become Dark-Hunters): Talon was sacrificed to the Celtic gods, supposedly to appease them. But once strapped down they murdered his sixteen year old sister before his eyes. It became apparent that this was not to appease the gods, but so that a cousin could take control of the clan. He was then murdered by his own people.
Biography (Minimum two Paragraphs please!):
Born to a Druid Priest and a Celtic Queen, Speirr lived happily with his mother and father until the day they were murdered by Saxon raiders. He managed to escape with his three month old sister. He went back to his mothers people, whom she had ran away from in order to marry Speirr’s father. He begged them to take in the baby who refused to eat. They agreed on the condition that he must take the punishment that his mother ran away from. He was beaten by the memebers of the clan, and in so surviving…His uncle who was chieftian took them in. Long years passed and with each Speirr became stronger and more respected among the clan. He was soon pronounced his Uncle’s heir. He married the daughter of a fisherman, named Nynia.
Unfortunately many things came to pass in short order. His uncle was murdered in battle, supposedly by another clan. This was a lie as it was truly his cousin. Speirr went and took revenge upon the clan that had supposedly murdered his uncle, taking the life of Calumus’s son. For this Calumus cursed him, saying that he would be the cause of death for everyone he loved. His aunt was raped and murdered soon after, and his young wife died in childbirth within the same week. The god had not lied. As he grieved, his cousin moved in to encite the clan against him and take power.
After his death and rebirth as a Dark-Hunter, Talon went on a rampage. His Act of Vengence was to take the life of every memember of his clan, lastly his own cousin. He wiped them all out. Acheron trained him to suppress all the dark of emotions, and to remain calm and collected at all times. As it turns out the only way to drain his Dark-Hunter powers is by strong dark emotions.
Currently, Talon lives deep in the swamps of New Orleans. He has a pet alligator who guards his boyou shack by day. Her name is Bess. Once night hits however, he can be found either in the Cafe Du Monde…or riding his motorcycle down the streets looking for some fabios to wipe out.
Extra Info: Has a tee-shirt given to him by Wulf that says “I see dead people”. The other Dark-Hunters in the city usually pick on him about this. He is also the only one who calls Acheron “T-Rex” (Due to Acheron’s age) and gets away with it.
