Name: Crag Wyvern heart
Alias: None
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual  
Personality: Crag is a very spiritual man that feels a deep connection not only to the land, but the animals as well. He is also very superstitious, small little things can influence what he does. He is suspicious of the intentions of other people not part of his tribe, but he opens up and is friendly enough once he sees they are no threat.

Crag does not understand the people in the more civilized parts of the world. He cant understand why anyone would willingly confine themselves behind stone walls, being away from nature. He neither hates nor loves dragons. They are just something in the world he and his people have had to learn to live alongside.
Fears: A healthy fear of predators, especially at night.
Strengths:

Wilder: Kill or be killed, eat or be eaten, such was the law of nature. Only the fit survive and Crags body has been shaped by living in that harsh world. He has the speed and endurance to run two miles in thirteen minutes. He can also carry a hundred and fifty pound deer a few miles by himself over the shoulder but has to take breaks every two hundred to three hundred meters.

Hunters Sight: Like any hunter he can read the environment for information.

Human Spirit: Very few really understand the strength of the human spirit. Crag has a strong will to live and has survived things that would break the will of others like in one situation were he had to carry a fellow hunter over his shoulder for days after they broke a leg in a blizzard swept mountain pass.

Weaknesses:

Language barrier: Crags tribe speak a different language then anyone else. But over the years through trading with other humans he has picked up a fair amount of the common tongue. He can communicate enough to be understood with a mixture of hand gestures and broken sentences.

Fish out of water: When trading in civilized areas of the world he stands out from the crowd and feels out of place among all the town and city dwellers. It makes him a easy target for those with ill intentions.

Background
History: Crag was born into the Ostroja tribe, a small nomadic, and dying race people that can trace back there origins in there stories and legends to the time when mankind were slaves to dragons. Stories passed down orally from generation to generation. Much of there history though was recorded in paintings in special caves of memory.

His father was a hunter but sadly perished in a hunting party that came across a ill tempered dragon by accident. It was a harsh winter and his mother grew ill with chest sickness and also perished. Children belonged to the whole tribe so Crag moved from fire to fire, raised by all in the clan. Crag did not mourn his dead family though. Such was not his peoples way. He knew in his heart he would meet then again in the after life after he journeyed the spirit trail in the sky.

He started training to be a hunter at a young age as most of the tribes boys did. After making his first kill and becoming recognized as a adult Crag met the tribal shaman for the most important ritual of manhood. Discovering the spirit that would walk with him for the remainder of his life in this world. In a secretive ritual known as a vision quest Crag met his guardian spirit and the shaman bestowed onto Crag his last name, Wyvern heart.

Life never got any easier, such was the way of life of living the old nomadic ways traveling around according to the seasons and game. He went with older more experienced hunters at a young age to do trade with outsiders and learned the most basic ways of communication. With that knowledge he now continues the tradition of trading furs with outsiders in exchange for things they need from time to time.

But on the whole him and his people keep to themselves and prefer to avoid others.


RP Sample:

Crag sat cross legged on the soft forest floor, a creek gurgling not far away. Two other hunters from his tribe were also there. At the moment the other two hunters were fletching some arrows. Crag was contributing another important aspect for a arrow, its penetrating tip.

He had just finished using a hammer stone to get some flakes from a large bit of flint found at the creek. Setting the hammer stone aside Crag took a antler shed by a deer and started the delicate task of knapping out some arrow heads. Bit by bit the tribal tapped at the piece of flint until it was the right size and held a sharp edge.

With the stone arrowheads made Crag turned his attention to helping the other hunters constructing the arrows. It only took a hour but the party had enough arrows for the hunt. With there ash wood bows stringed with sinew the three hunters moved deeper into the forest in search of some deer that had left a fresh pile of droppings.

Quick question, if he needs the help of another to carry a 150Ib deer--assuming that person doesn't have his same level of endurance/fitness--wouldn't it be necessary for him to stop?

I did away with all of it.

Why? All you had to do was fix that bit about him being able to carry the deer for several miles without resting with another person helping him.

I was in a bit of a rush as I had to be away for a few days for work related stuff. I made the changes with the time needed to rest based on some life experience carrying people a few times. 200 to 300 meters is pushing it between rest breaks. Not easy to carry that much weight.

Approved.
