[Name]
Rekarr Talver
[Aliases]
Bandit King - The name for his otherwise shadowy figure to the Mindalurians and bandits.
[Abilities]
Having survived on his own for years, as well as being able to intimidate the bandits that he controlled, Rekarr boasted a skill in an unorthodox fighting style - more akin to a hunter engaging in brutal melees for brief moments before stepping back to recalculate the combat. As well as that, his lonely life in the ruins and in the woods have granted him mastery over combat in areas of high density - proving his undisputed position as the Bandit King.
[Biography]
Born a Balnazzan, Rekarr's ambitions eclipsed the ones of his kind. Unlike the silver they craved, Rekarr coveted the precious gold and gems that led to the path of fortune. Disappearing from Balnazza, Rekarr spent years hunting treasures in the dangerous ruins of the fallen Sunlossi Empire. Often ambushing other bandits or fending off uneasy revenants and wild beasts, Rekarr had amassed bags of riches in his absence.
Greedy for more gold and confident in his martial abilities, Rekarr traveled down to the highly forested areas of Mindalur - where, through gold and intimidation, he monopolized the bandits, raiding in his name and granting him a -major- cut of the spoils. His name whispered as the 'Bandit King' across covert networks, Mindalurian trackers were able to follow his visage through nearly two years of captured bandits, interception and information gathering, the location of Rekarr's hidden refuge was obtained.
Forcing to bribe a group of bandits who resented Rekarr, his capture took place under a night sky. Ambushed by a small force of hired brigands and skilled Mindalurian trackers, Rekarr darted through the forest his shelter was hid in - confusing the enemy as he brought death instantly through the dark shade of night. Though the marauders were easily defeated, Rekarr was forced out into a clearing by the trackers. Surrounded and unable to take his gold with him, Rekarr fought the three trackers - managing to slay one before being out-skilled by the second one and quickly subdued by the third one.
Though imprisoned, Rekarr was granted 'mercy' as his fortune was taken from him -unwillingly= for Mindalur. Despite his will to escape, King Evelyn was correct to predict his reluctance to depart without his money, forcing him into service. |
