_______________________________ I. Character Identity:

Screen name: Leonardo S. Tensatsu
Character name: Balian Albertus

Alias(s):

~Shield of God:
{ A title bestowed upon the righteous cleric for two specific reasons. His unrelenting vow to never harm a soul, and his unique ability to manifest divine barriers }

Factual age: 34
Perceived age: Early 30's
Gender: Male

Place of origin: Our Lady of Assumption Orphanage
Birth parents: Unknown
Heritage: Suspected to be of divine origin, raised to believe he'd been bestowed upon man kind as a gift to those weak, and help less.

Current profession(s): Cleric, Surgeon, Faith healer.
Previous profession(s): Head of Orphanage.

Fighting style: Divine practice
Emphasis: Balian utilizes his unique barrier skill to protect others, or entrap/destroy those soulless that taint the world. Known to carry a typical blunt mace in the cleric fashion, though only on specific dangerous expeditions.

~Personality:

-Interests:
{ Botany, Children, helping those in need. Balian retains much of his charismatic nature from working with orphans, quick to help any in need his passions linger also towards plants and animals almost as much so as people. }

-Disinterests:
{ Cruelty, savagery, and single mindedness. As with most any healers, Balian holds exceptional detestation for those that would harm another, especially unnecessarily. This including harm towards people, plants, or animals. He believes creation in general should be appreciated, and loved. Not destroyed, or harmed. }

-Behavioral tendencies:
{ Balian tends to always have a cheerful smile on his face, quick to help any in need no matter how trivial, and a sucker for all manner of conversation. When not busy with others, he tends towards the gardens he enjoys planting where ever he goes or wandering about the nearest woods to help varied wild animals as a form of meditation. }

-Conflicted mentality:
{ When faced against the soulless, Balian would act to deter, or destroy the abomination in the quickest most efficient way possible. If faced by a damned, or lost soul he would simply attempt to get through to whomever while defending himself or others, and if this was ineffective he'd rather flee then harm a confused innocent. }

-Morals:
{ Balian Albertus's moral's are everything to him. Vowed to never use his special gifts against those with a soul, help the helpless, and lend a willing ear to those even most evil who wish to repent. Balian believes in no absolutes, that all created with a soul or will of their own have the potential for good as much so as evil. }

~Flaws:

-Personality
// Almost 'too' trusting some times, deception would be the best tool used against this righteous man. This especially true for injured, or troubled children. //

-Physically
// Now in his early thirties, Balian had just recently reached his peak physical prime, and is now beginning to descend as his habits tend more towards less physical practices after his countless ventures, and expeditions across the world. //

-Intellectually
// Balian isn't exceptionally book smart, though well versed in common sense. Technology being something he neither hates nor loves, though in honesty he'd never came across all that much in his time aside from typical uses of house hold appliances in modern civilizations. //

-Emotionally
// Through the years, Balian had witnessed countless murders, raids, and deaths. All of which he attempted to deter with what skill he had, which wasn't always enough. Hardening himself against this, the death of a child is still known to bring tears to his eyes. //

-Morally
// Balian's morals have been known to be taken advantage of on many circumstances. Diverting his attention from ones plot by providing a more compelling situation for the cleric to attend to in his attempts to save as many lives as possible regardless of collateral damage. //

______________________V. Abilities:

Racial abilities:
~Divine touch:
{ A simple skill gifted by the majority of the Cleric ranks. The simple ability to regenerate the flesh, and spiritual soul of those injured. His adept practices lends him the potential a bit beyond any typical cleric. Capable of bringing someone from the brink of death, so long as a spark of life remains. }

~Creation:
{ This being a skill specific to any, and everything that 'lives' or harbors a physical, or spiritual existence. Capable of healing, raising the recently deceased, or giving corporeal form to incorporeal spiritual entities }

Physical abilities: None

Enhance abilities:
~Regeneration
{ This being his passive, or conscious ability to gradually heal his own physical, or spiritual being. In earlier years he'd been able to survive lethal blows with minimal bleeding or sustained injury after a short period of time. As his bodies aged, such an ability has waned slowly }

Psionic abilities: None

Elemental abilities:
~Divine/Celestial
{ A simple element, aligned to deter or destroy 'evil' or those soulless. Manifested as an aura, physical barrier, or Balian's mere physical form }

Unique abilities:

~Recondite:
{ Most commonly recognized as 'darkness' incorporated by two specific entities Balian's yet unaware of. 'Recondite' its self refers to complicated, or ambiguous origin. In Balian's case, his Recondite manifestation lingers as a pale yellowish white luminescence that perpetually alters between the three physical states, and an 'aura' or incorporeal energetic form. Retaining the same qualities as the 'dark' Recondite, it's specifically designed to be invulnerable to heat, electricity, and other energies.

Physically, it depends on the saturation of the Recondite illumination. Capable of erecting a physical barrier as a thin veil, or a tower in varied textile strengths. Balian's most notable uses of this ability being imaginative, as either as telekinetic like force, conduit for his healing ability, physical barriers, and spectacles of shimmering light similar to holograms
}

~Deity:
{ The 'god' Balian worships, and stands for being none other then 'Tensatsu'. His specific abilities granted by this omnipotent 'god' for varied purposes he's yet to comprehend fully. His faith in this 'god' fuels his unrelenting resolve for good, and his struggle against untimely death, and evil. Unaware of his 'gods' true name, he simply refers to him as 'god' during his many teachings of common sense, and righteousness being something inherent within the soul rather then taught. }
