CH. I – Painting a Portrait
Good-looking perhaps, if you can look past the scars.   He’s just under six feet tall, light-weight and rather lithe in look and stride, but athletic in nature.  He has a stern, yet somehow bored look to him, as if he’s always looking for something more interesting to do.

His black hair is shaved along the sides of his head, and loose enough to just hang in front of his face.  A strong jaw line, coupled with deep blue-gray eyes.

+ NOTABLE MARKS +
A scar marking across his entire face, as a result of a flintlock pistol fired near his face.  The residual burns remain, but are less conspicuous than the jagged mark that etches from his right cheek up to forehead, and another across his nose and over his left eye, and another across his lips, with a fourth along his chin. 

CH II – Mental Make-up
Though seemingly soft-spoken and polite, Severus always makes a point to prove that he is not one to suffer nonsense.  While he would never be overtly rude to someone, he is direct and forthright, seeing no need to beat around the bush.  Even if another shows a severe lack of manners, he will usually remain polite, if a little cold.  His life is a lonely one, but he prefers to keep it that way.  People and attachments make life complicated in manners that are, for him, quite unnecessary.

Despite past circumstances, Severus tries to bear no ill-will toward anyone, though it is more trying than he’d like.  He is mostly attentive and caring, and always makes sure to check up on patients that he’s tended to before.

+ FAITH +
None of that nonsense.

+ HABITS +
Has no severe vices other than smoking perhaps, both tobacco and herbs.  He drinks a bit, usually alone.


CH III – Social

+ RELATIONSHIPS +
  *TBA

CH IV – Abilities / Skills
+ TRANSFERENCE +
Severus recalls never being a sick a day in his life, never suffering broken bones – mainly from a careful, and strict mother – and any scratches and wounds healed quickly.

He does not know whether or not his gift is the result of any divine intervention, and would never make claim to such.  He has always possessed he ability to absorb the pain and damage of others by contact.  The lacerations, bruises, or otherwise are transferred to his own body, in exchange for renewed flesh.  Within time, his own body will heal the damage or expel the illness he’s taken unto himself.  The more severe the wound the greater concentration required to mend, and the longer it takes for him to recover from it.  He cannot however regrow limbs, nor bring back those that have died.

Likewise any devastating wounds on his person can be transferred to another, and he would gain renewed flesh.

CH V – Gear / Equipment
Plague Doctor mask, portable alchemical set, herbs and other such junk.

Also a surgeon’s knife that may or may not be solely for surgical cutting.

CH VI – Reflections of the Past
Severus Creed was born Aurelius Devroux, son to an apothecary and a seamstress.  When the war broke out, he did his best to keep his family’s small farmstead hidden from most of the fighting.  But troops found them anyway with accusations of his father being a mage supporter.  In truth, he had been, and was hanged when evidence was found supporting it.

His mother was shot and killed and he was tortured and beaten, left for dead.  His face still bears the scars of the gun that fired the shot that killed his mother.  And in the years that followed he hated the war even more.  He was a mage in a nation that despised mages, that hunted and killed them.  So he took to the road, and though he wanders all over, he has returned to Connlaoth, taking up the profession of doctor.

Though he cares for those in need, a part of him can’t help but feel the need to act, so that others might not suffer as he did, to interrupt the flow of the war and any efforts to hurt more mages, whether by blade, poison, or any other means necessary.
