IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Lex is tall and though of seemingly sleight build, he is deceptively strong. Dressed in his magically enchanted attire, Lex is nearly impossible to spot in any wilderness setting. Hood down and mask removed, Lex can be seen to have boyish good looks. Perpetually carrying that two day old shave look on his face, even this small amount of rugged charm only lends to his youthful look. Due to being nearly always covered from head to toe, the sun doesn't find much of his skin, and Lex is generally of a pale complexion. Almost always with a smile on his face Lex is a cheerful joker. Bow and quiver on his back, sword on his hip, Lex can be seen to always be ready to fight. He keeps his hair never longer than a few inches, not because he likes it that way, but for more practical reasons. The rectangular block that hangs opposite his sword is actually another bow. It was specially crafted to be able to collapse down for easy storage, and can be snapped into the ready position with just a quick, strong, shake.

Personality
Clever, idealistic, arrogant but selfless, dryly humorous, heroic, undaunted by authority, sometimes outrageously bold but always principled.

Lex is an exceptionally selfless person who always puts other people's needs before his own, willing to walk straight into enemy territory if it meant saving other people. He is clever, heroic and undaunted by authority, always ready to stand up to people of higher status if necessary. Lex also possesses a rather dry sense of humor. However—due to his talent for making frequent escapes from perilous situations—he is sometimes too sure of himself. Often seen as thoughtful and brave, he is also known for being arrogant, naive, and for risking other people's lives for his own glory. He possesses a strong sense of idealism, but when this image is damaged he can become neurotically unstable and reckless.

Lex is very loyal to his friends. He remains loyal even after perceived betrayals, because he likes to give the benefit of the doubt and wants to believe that it wasn't their fault. He can show some rather dark traits when faced with proven treachery however, even willing to use torture, especially when his friends are put in danger.

Magic/Abilities/Skills
Lex is prodigiously skilled with a bow, and when using the weapon, he virtually never misses his target. He is also a formidable swordsman.

Gear
-Heart Finder-
A recurve bow of yew, Heart Finder was enchanted by an ancient wizard for his most trusted bodyguard. Unfortunately, the bodyguard was assassinated himself, and the bow turned against the wizard by the assassin. From that day forward it has had a bloody path, passing through many hands. While many believe it cursed, it is still sought after for its magical ability to seek an opponents heart.

As an arrow from Heart Finder flew at him, Lex shot it from the air, and quickly impaled another arrow into the wielders head. Lex does not always use Heart Seeker, as he does not always want to kill the people he fires on.

-Collapsing Short Bow-
The bow Lex most often uses, this bow can be magically collapsed to easily hang from a belt loop. When extended it is just a standard short bow. In the hands of Lex, it's deadly.

-Bountiful Quiver-
This quiver appears to be old and well used, its magical aura well hidden. Any arrow placed within is kept forever in the quivers memory. The quiver then can create magical duplicates for the wearer. Whatever arrow they are thinking of is the arrow they pull out. The wearer is also given the knowledge of every arrow the quiver can make.

-Lady Luck-
Made from adamantine this longsword has a bright, double-edged blade a meter long, that is a centimeter at its thickest, and has a simple black hilt with straight crossbar. The steel of the blade is mottled, with a subtle translucent pattern that seems to extend to impossible depths. The hilt is an unknown black material, hard but also comfortable. It has a pair of dice engraved in white on its hilt. Lady Luck is surgically sharp and resistant to all forms of damage. It will never rust, dull, tarnish, or soil. The overall construction of the blade is simple and elegant, not ornate or flashy. She gives her holder good luck, and brings misfortune on anyone trying to harm or hinder her current possessor. While a person holds Lady Luck, even if it remains sheathed in a scabbard, they are blessed with supernatural good luck. If they play poker, every hand wins. If they walk a tightrope, they would not fall, and if they did fall, one can be sure that the fall would somehow not harm them, and result in a personal profit. A secondary use of the her is that she can function like a compass, pointing the user in the general direction of something they are searching for. With the luck she imparts, it is likely the user would be able to deal with any difficulty they meet with while en route.

-Elven Leather Armor-
This magical armor was crafted by elves. The armor is lighter, and more flexible, utilizing layered pieces of leather, allowing full mobility, while providing better protection than regular leather armor. Enchanted to respond to the current season and surrounding terrain, the armor provides excellent camouflage, helping Lex effortlessly blend into the wilderness.

-Tree Bark Mask-
This full face mask is made of smooth pale wood and has no holes in it for seeing or breathing. When worn, the mask surface appears to onlookers to be made from bark of the nearest tree. When fastened on, the mask comfortably conforms to the wearers face. They are then able to see and breathe freely, as if the mask is not worn. While viewing the world through the mask, the wearer can see invisible creatures and has a doubled range of vision. This mask gives the wearer greater skill with ranged weapons, allowing accuracy at twice the usual range of the weapon.

-Hooded Elven Cloak-
This magical cloak was crafted by elves. Made of neutral gray cloth, it's indistinguishable from an ordinary cloak of the same color. However, when worn with the hood drawn up around the head, the cloaks magic is activated. Like his armor, the cloak is enchanted to respond to the current season and surrounding terrain, providing excellent camouflage. Wrapped around him while perched in a tree, the cloak looks like a cluster of leaves. When against a mountainside, the cloak takes on the texture of stone.

-Elven Boots-
These soft, elven made, magic boots enable the wearer to move quietly in any surroundings, absorbing the sound that would be made by footfalls. This allows Lex to walk through gravel, or dry leaves and twigs, without making a sound. They also leave the wearers trail unmarked, leaving no foot prints, or damage to the path underfoot.


Things of note
-Locket-
Tucked in his armor, Lex wears a gold locket on a chain around his neck. It has a picture of the woman he longs for inside.



Relationships
-Friends

-Enemies

-It's Complicated

        Karis Astrakaia is the woman Lex loves. As children they played together, her a legitimate noble child, he a bastard son of a noble. The romance between them began when he would sneak secret visits in their youth. His love for her has only grown through the years, but her father sold her hand to seal an important business deal. The past eleven years he has visited her secretly, as often as they dare, sharing their passion when it is safe. If her husband ever discovered the truth, he'd have their heads. Karis's husband has taken her on an extended trip to Essyrn, and he misses her very much. Lex's love for Karis, and their secret rendezvous don't stop him from having flings.
