MARK LUCAS TERROWIN

GODSPEED THIS LETTER AWAY FROM HERE
i've sealed it with my tears
and stamped it with my fears

•• nicknames: Lu, Terry, Owin
•• age: 37
•• birth era: Medieval
•• date of birth: 11/12
•• as portrayed by: Dean Cain

•• your character’s body: Terrowin stands at 6'1" and looks down at most people. He weighs a light 200 pounds, which is light for most kings who could eat whatever they wished at any time. His piercing brown eyes are perfect for treaty negotiations as well for staring someone down. His hair is pitch black as well as the mostache he sports. He usually shaves the hair under his chin but on a bad week he lets it grow out due to neglect. Pulling all nighters is not an uncommon thing for this king and his facial hair is not even on his mind. He has a moderate build, not to big but not small, just perfectly in the middle.

MY WORK HERE IS THROUGH
i’m on my way to better days
and so are you

•• likes: His castle, his daughter, hidden traps to kill assasins, water, peace & quiet, the day, training, relaxing, food
•• dislikes: Night, assasins, death plots, his daughter being harmed, traps not working, turtles, His daughter not listening, liars, wars
•• general personality: Terrowin can be summed up in a few words but because of the required two paragraphs it'll be more then that. For one he can be paranoid. Ever since his wife was killed in an assassination attempt on his life, he's been paranoid and cautious to the extreme. It is evident with every move he makes and everything he does. Though he does this subconsciously most of the time, he does know how to hide it when the time calls for it. Especially when entertaining guests or the like.

Despite his paranoid side, Terrowin has a good sense of humor and can be smiling most of the time. Though as if a switch has been flipped he can immediately change from a light hearted mood filled with laughter and happiness, to a stoic look of seriousness. He is not one to be messed and toyed with so watch your tongue and where you step. There is a reason why he had become king despite his blood line. He will not accept anything less then the best for his kingdom and when wars are started, the enemy has no idea what they're getting into. Terrowin can be quite cold and calculating, plotting masterful plans and plots in the war room. He is merciless in everything he does when it's for his kingdom's own good. Rarely has a plan failed him and even then so he always finds out a way to come on top.

Terrowin is not invincible, there are his few weaknesses that are out in the public's eyes. One for instance is his daughter. He loves her to death and will always protect her from any harm, he along with his knights. Even though she's stubborn and tries to lose her escorts from time to time, he adores her and wouldn't want any other daughter to take her place. She is the only surviving link to her mother for Terrowin, and so he holds her dear and treats her more then just like a princess, but a special daughter as well.

When there is nothing to be done, the king often finds himself ether lounging about, going to the kingdom itself or training. he spends a lot of his time sword fighting and even archery. He does not want to not be able to fight and can take care of himself even when there is no one there to protect him like the knights at his castle.
•• hometown: Kingdom of Golisvear
•• job(s): King
•• general history: When Mark was young he was taught many things about life. He was sent to school and graduated from 6th grade to start learning how to be a king. His father was proud of the young prince who dedicated much of his time to learning exactly what it took to rule a kingdom. As he grew up he courted a Arica Sunshel and finally married her before his father passed away. By now he was 18 years of age and being the only sibling had to take up the thrown and rule his kingdom. The first few years were tough on him but he had help from many of his fathers friends. When their daughter was born it was one of the most proudest and happiest days of Marks life. The next few years were wonderful until the assassination attempt on Mark's life began. The assassin slipped into the castle and fired an arrow into the bed, hitting Arica instead of Mark.

Mark's life was shattered ever since. The assassin was never found and Mark knew there'd be more attempts. So, he packed up everything in search for a castle where it would be hard to get into. Finding the ruins on the waterfall was shear luck and he capitalized on it. After a year and several worker deaths later, they finished the castle and he and his daughter moved in it to call it home. He arranged for a small army to be hand picked and trained even more then the regular army. They each have quarters inside the castle and get rotated back into the kingdom for relaxation.
