Rafael Sacristan

Quirks and Mannerisms: Gaunt, Fierce, Desperate Hopes to live to return his bellowed but his duty to the empress prevents him from doing so Knows that he is despised by the planet's local populace Hates his past as he lived mostly as a weapon of war Has faltering loyalty towards the empress as he feels the weight of the atrocities that he committed in her name Prone to flashbacks and panic attacks due to his untreated trauma manages his trauma with the help of sapphire wielders Favored of the Amber Queen his Zeta Field is stronger than the most but his psionic storm is weaker Master swordsman prefers to engage with his opponents in melee Feels proud of himself as he is not living off streets anymore and he has climbed into lower gentry by the merit of sword Sympathetic towards the people without psionic powers as he fought alongside them in the service of Arashake Empire Hopes to win the favor of house of Dragomir to gain better status within the empire and retire from military service one day Dreams about marrying his sweet hearth despite it feels distant for now Misses his mother dearly and blames himself for not being able to protect her when she was accused of being a witch His armor deflects most of the projectiles but weak to energy weapons Learned to fear the tenacity of the bird demi humans that constitute the majority of the Tusan Republic as he has seen many of his comrades fall to the energy weapons that they use Prays to Amber Queen for safe return to his bellowed yet his prayers seem to be unswered Faced bullying from other squires and knights during his training for the order thus developing a personality of bitterness Is dismissive towards other knights as he sees them as mindless savages that obey the orders of the higher ups without questioning Has rebellious attitude but tries to hide it as not to seen as a traitor Started to dislike being a knight as it now feels less glamourous to him now that he has something to lose Became more careful as he fights even learned to use bolts of psionic energy to deter ranged attacks from his foes Sympathetic to the cause of his enemies given the actions of his compatriots Almost respects the autonomy of other countries however his indoctrination is still rock solid Remembers bein taken as a squire when his psionic gift was discovered from a young age Hopes to become a general so that he is not forced to risk his life on frontlines anymore Has great intellect and tactical acumen that impresses his commanders they have great hopes for him Traumatized by the combat yet he has no escape from it as he is expected to serve until he is high enough rank to not to risk or he is crippled beyond combat Will lash out at slightest criticization of his feelings for the fair lady he had met as she thought him there is more to life than needless carnage Looks forward for the festivals of gathering as they mean furloughs for the soldiers like him during which he met his love interest Prefers not to speak about his love interest as he fears being mocked or scorned by his fellow soldiers as attachments are unwelcome within Arashake military Laments the fact that there was no choice for a peasant from a feudal world like him but to become a knight or die as a beggar Despises Brutuliskas despite fighting for the same cause as them as he finds them crude and unsophisticated Hates sand as it reminds him of his backwater homeworld Iridunsha where his mother burned at the stake and his drunkard father went missing Honors the memory of his brother dearly and lives to make sure that his name is not forgotten Haunted by the memories of the innocent lives he had ended and carries that burden everywhere he goes Fears to speak of these experiences to sapphire wielders as they are mandated reporters alongside being healers Carries gems of topaz to enhance his psionic powers and for good luck Loves to listen to his friends at the bonfires as he finds a hint of humanity Background: Eyes: Purple Skin: Swarthy Age: 25 Species: Mandalon Clothes: Black Gothic Plate Armor Education: Iridunsha Bootcamp, Kalade Obsidian Knight Chapter Occupation: Knight Hobbies: Sparing, Mediation, Poetry, Astral Projection Relatives: Father: Miguel Sacristan (Missing) Mother: Patricia Sacristan (Deceased) Brother.
