II. APPEARANCE

Height: 6'1ft
Weight: 211lbs
Hair: Silver
Eyes: Jet Black
General Appearance:
Head & Face - The man has a nicely chiseled chin, and eyes that could shoot the wings off a fly. He seems to keep himself always holding a serious face, except for when he is amused or angered. He has fanged teeth, much a kin to a dragon, which helps with his dog like persona. The male himself has lovely medium length hair that he keeps unkempt, and he also has a adequately shaped nose. He is easy on the eyes, and is quite attractive himself. He takes pride in this, though his arrogance is more for combat than it is for his looks.
Whole Body - At the near peak of physical conditioning stands Griffon Warner. His burgundy skin is all natural, and he has never had to tan a day in his life. He is a product of the harsh Desierto environments, and as a result he holds a very thick middle-eastern accent which gives off the impression that he is exotic. Furthering this assumption is the fact that he is a rather large individual. In terms of physical presence he appears to be beyond what typical people could consider healthy, sporting a rather nice immune system among other things. He is practically an Adonis.
Accessories - He is the type of man who loves to wear dark colors, leather jackets and chains. He gives off the vibe of being the bad boy. This caters to a lot of different fan girls that he does happen to have. He doesn't have any body modifications ore piercings to make him look more alluring, trading off the emotionally distant pretty boy act for the macho-biker esk look. He is manly in every sense of the word, only lacking facial hair to seal the deal. But that would make him overpowered. He always wears dark clothing, combat boots, and a devilish smile.
Extra: Griffon has numerous scars upon his back.

III. PERSONALITY

Personality: Confident is a word that many have used to describe the chosen one, after-all Griffon has a great affinity for learning and displays his skills as often as he can, believing that the sound of his own voice is not only a gift from god, but a message that must be spread outwards to the unworthy. His strong sense of justice has helped in his crusade to come off as a guardian angel for those in his guild. Despite the fact that he is very intimidating. Despite the fact that is full of self confidence, enough to the point in which he has placed himself in harms way on numerous occasions, in fact he is so afraid of showing weakness that he has been considered a dog by many he knows, hence his nickname Canine. In many ways he is like a dog, and serves his guild to his full potential. His loyalty is daunting, rushing to the aid of anyone in his guild without hesitation, and trusting in them without falter. Despite this however, he absolutely can not stand fat people, he finds them to be gross. If you're out of shape you're a hindrance, and he doesn't hold his tongue. Until he finds someone to love, he comes off as as a womanizer. Unfortunately.

When it comes to combat, furthermore, he never takes an opponent seriously. Almost laughing at his opponents in a battle irregardless of if he is losing or not. He believes heavily in his own skills to the point in which he literally formed a dislike for his immense power, and rarely goes for the kill, directly in spite of his magic's nature of taking away life as sport. In loo of this however, he is described by many to be a complete beast, unforgiving to his enemies, and as his job is to hunt down traitors it is perhaps fitting of him. His rage is similar to a mad dog, fittingly enough. A man whom is not afraid to flaunt his status as a dragon, and as one of the stronger members of his guild. He praises himself often, and knows expressly that he is capable of great things.

He however does treat one person better than all others, the love of his life. [Who will be found IC] When it comes to this woman, he is honest, straight forward, and never lies. He spares nothing when speaking with her, and does not do anything to protect her from pain. He does whatever he can however to protect her from things he feels she isn't capable of handling, but for the most part allows for her to be an individual. He is a romantic individual, and often tries his hardest to please her, seeking her reassurance and approval, despite his self confidence. Furthermore, he believes that she is a precious object, and puts her before even the Guild itself. This is his weakness, as he is known to lose his ability to make sound decisions whenever he worries about his love. He doesn't allow her to know this however, and it rarely becomes a problem because he allows her to come everywhere with him. Defying protocol quite often even. He seems codependent almost, but this isn't the case. He simply feels as though she is his last shred of sanity, and therefore covets her. Like the rose from beauty and the beast.

Motivations: He has two motivations in his life. The first was to become a well renown mage whom is never underestimated by anyone he mates at any point ever.

His second motivation is that he wants to have a family someday. Images of a past he once lived flicker in his mind constantly, and he has always seen himself as the type of person whom would make a great father. Due to this he has set his sights on attempting to find love, his success with this feat currently is unknown, and it is most likely something that will never happen, but he is too hard-headed to believe that.

• Extravagant (-1): You enjoy living in the lap of luxury. Ale is never good enough if you can get fine wine instead. You aren't happy with anything less than the finest room in the inn.

• Hedonistic (-1): You love a good time. You party too much, drink too much, and eat too much. You have trouble resisting an invitation to join someone in a drink and sometimes shirk your duty if offered a more enjoyable time elsewhere. Whenever a good time is presented you let your guard. You're also not capable to resist seduction of any sort. It's just not in your nature to resist such opportunities.
  
• Reckless (-1): You lack the emotion of fear. Unfortunately, it is often an important cue that keeps men from doing foolhardy things. Sure, you don't flinch at the sight of even the most hideous monster, but neither do you feel the need to run away when outclassed.
  
• Proud (-1): You don't like accepting help from others. If a gift or offer of aid smacks of charity or pity even the slightest bit, you grow indignant and refuse it.
  
• Overconfident (-1): Nothing is beyond your capabilities. If you wanted, you could defeat the best swordsman in the world; you just haven't had any reason to do so yet. And surely that chasm isn't too wide for you to leap across.

V. HISTORY

History:
It is true that young Griffon was born in the lands of Desierto, miles upon miles away from Fiore. He does not remember this however, and it causes him mental conflicts. When he was only the age of three, his father had taken him to a damp and dark cave where a vicious and strange wolf known as Gravefang lived. This feral creature had made its home here, and often killed anyone who had neared his roost without permission. It was then, to the surprise of Griffon's father, that the beast didn't immediately kill him. Seeing potential in his son.

The creature struck up a bargain and Griffon's father had no choice but to accept the terms. Despite the horrible appearance of the dreaded dog like creature, it treated young Griffon well. Teaching him the ins and outs of his putrid and dangerous magic. Allowing the lad to realize just how serious these events were. When the young lad had reached the age of thirteen he was sent out to join a local guild, to make a name for himself in Desierto. Despite having a less than typical boring childhood, Griffon seemed to excel in the use of his  magic.

Before long he was inducted into a famous guild within his native country. The guild he was originally in was named Quantum Eel, and the guild had been rising to popularity all through his youth. This effectively made it his dream guild. He had made many friends, and rivals, during his time in Quantum Eel, spending an entirety of five years in that guild before unfortunate circumstances occurred. A rival dark guild known as Black Egg had attacked his guild and eliminated nearly one third of the guild, the kicker was that they had used forbidden magical items to succeed.

During the attack they had enraged Griffon, causing him to let off a powerful discharge of energy at high velocity. Due to his attack erasing away most evidence of Black Egg's involvement he was branded as a traitor to Desierto, as a result he had to flee the country. As he made his way out the country, he had a run in with Black Egg again. Needless to say the conflict was quite engaging. He had eliminated the enemy guild. but he had his mind wiped in the process, luckily for him his companions got him to Fiore at once.

This was made complicated due to his lack of memory. He was not able to remember where he came from, or what exactly he did in his past, but he has nightmares about it constantly. Luckily upon his arrival he was able to interact as a solo mage for awhile, earning the eye of Blue Pegasus. After negotiations and a large amount of proving himself he has proven to be valuable to the guild, being one of their premier members. He grew attached to the guild, mostly out of guilt towards the loss of his original, though he doesn't know this.
