Obadiah

A character set within the fictional world of Elden Ring, Obadiah is a Tarnished warrior brought up by his adoptive parents—who were also both male warrior tarnished. He has purple hair tied into a fancy bun with bangs and braids hanging off the sides. He wear purple lipstick and eye makeup, and his face is always painted with some odd insignia. His eyes are bright yellow with blood red replacing the ivory white that’s supposed to be behind his pupils. Obadiah is also a nightfolk, meaning his skin is a bright, icy blue color.

Despite growing up with two dads, Obadiah is ostensibly feminine. His body is very girly and so is his face, which he likes to decorate with various makeup. Yes, Obadiah is very flamboyant but he doesn’t let that stop him from being a great warrior.

Before his fathers passed, they told him to seek the light of grace and follow it to the lands between so that there he could become lord by restoring the Elden ring. However… to do so, he has to clear a lot of obstacles there—a lot of cursed, deadly, even divine obstacles that are all standing in his way. He’s prepared his whole life for this, and as such, even now he pursues strength and competence in battle, and is determined to be the best warrior he can be for the honor of his parents.

Obadiah had made a name of himself by already defeating three Demi gods, that being: Godrick the Grafted, Radahn the Starscourge, and Rennala of the Full Moon. Despite his girlish appearance, delicate voice, and kind demeanor, he is above all else a warrior…

Though, deep down, Obadiah really just wants someone to love. With his parents gone he’s been lonely for such a long time, and so he craves the love and affection of those he admires. Yes, on top of being a warrior and a pretty-boy, Obadiah is also a hopeless romantic who falls for men and women alike.

Obadiah is aware of how his appearance shapes people’s perception of him, but doesn’t let that get to him. Despite his feminine form he’s still eager to protect and guide those he trusts, even if they won’t do the same. Even despite seeing so much battle… Obadiah still tries to keep a good heart and a focused mind, and never let temptation or anger sway him on his adventure.

Even with all of this established however, Obadiah still has much to learn, and the Lands Between still have a lot left to throw at him… a part of Obadiah knows that he can’t do it alone, a part of him knows he’s afraid of what’s coming, but there’s another part of him that knows this journey is all he has and all he can hope for if he truly wants to change the world for the better—the way his fathers did.

Whenever Obadiah meets someone, he’s very friendly and outgoing, but he has a habit of getting clingy fast. A journey like his—despite being shared by so many—can feel so lonely at times… and who’s to say Obadiah doesn’t deserve some love and relaxation? No one has come as far as him, he knows that—it’s the one fact that will always keep him moving forward.

It’s because of all of these great qualities that Obadiah seems to make an impression on anyone he meets. He seems to bring the best out of them and be nothing but supportive for those who truly deserve it.

He rides around the lands between on his trusty steed, torrent—clad in the armor of a now lost friend… a friend named Blaidth. The long fur coat wisps majestically behind him as he rides through fields of rowa fruit bushes and trees, and along the edges of great cliffs… a lonely but passionate warrior who just might be able to do anything he sets his mind to.

Obadiah relies solely on faith and dexterity, combing incantations with clever and agile weapons that he embeds with the power of ancient dragon lightning and various skills for him to use in combat.
