Description

A redesign of my OC Krovin for Blackrabbit98

NAME: Arcadius Krovin
NICKNAMES: The Institor, Withered One
AGE: 60
HEIGHT: 5'10"
WEIGHT: 160lbs

Originally hailing from the slums of Dagger's Row in the cold northern city of Mikasi, the young Arcadius Krovin lived a life of poverty, begging and stealing food whenever the opportunity presented itself. One night, he picked a pocket that would change his life - that of an old apothecary. He found no money or food, but a book, detailing a list of ingredients and instructions on how to make different potions. He started experimenting on his own, foraging for herbs and roots to make paralysis potions, potent poisons, and truth serums. With these he made a fortune passing them off as wine to sell to thirsty passers-by. At first he would paralyze them and simply steal their money, but as he became more recognized as a criminal, he was eventually arrested and sold to the elves as a slave.

The long-living elves recognized the boy's intelligence and trained him to be the bodyguard and taste tester of a minor Elvish lord. It was here where he gained proficiency in the Elvish martial arts and learned even more about poisons and how they were mixed with food and drink. It would not last, though. Krovin longed for independence from the haughty elves and eventually poisoned the entirety of the lord's manor at a large party, ensuring his freedom.

By the time he was a young man, Krovin's childhood reputation as a petty thief had been forgotten, and he had signed up with a mercenary group called Talbot Company. His commander exploited his knowledge of Elvish swordsmanship and thievery and gave him a role as a battlefield assassin, infiltrating enemy camps in the middle of the night and killing their officers.

Krovin served in the company for many years, until it was called to Long Whisper, where his commander met an untimely end at the hands of a Black Rabbit, making the company leaderless and left without guidance. With the company disbanded and no work to be found, Krovin decided to join the organization that had destroyed his old one, and sought out the Black Rabbits for work when he was about 30 years of age.

Now at age 60, he is no longer as fast as he used to be, but can still wield a blade to dispatch a common bandit or a new recruit within the White Cloaks if need be, however his preferred method of assassination is to set up a tent by the roadside and offer passers-by a drink or a bowl of soup, and watch as their blood and guts are puked out from ingesting a potent hemorrhage-inducing potion. The poisoned guts are then re-used to make stews for his next victim.
