Character Sheet for Johanes Gaul
Character Description
Personality
arrogant and proud, his ego knows no bounds but his bravery when faced impossible challenges is endearing. He has however developed a bitterness towards the people of Neoursheir and sneers any time they are mentioned. Loyal to his fellow undead he's a man of his people and a trustworthy ally to them. He may not be the undead's leader but he's certainly suited to the role. Courageous, wise, strong and loyal he has the respect of his fellow undead even if he's hated by the locals of Neoursheir. Hard-working and always willing to help others, he's secretly a lot kinder then he lets on. However this doesn't extend to honor and particularly partial to a bit of thievery. He holds the undead together as the loyal servant and adviser of George and they hang on his every word and will follow him into hell. Many undead want him to be the ruler but his loyalty to George would never allow it and nor would he want to break his trust.
Likes/Dislikes
likes stealing, eating snakes, fighting for his beliefs and helping his friends, dislikes the people of Neoursheir, people who hate undead, being told what he can and can't do and people who disrespect him.
Background/History
When some bandits from Neoursheir ran from the law and sailed to Bret, Joe being the head of the local authorities was sent to deal with the bandits. In Bret he fathered many children and had many adventures before he was eventually killed by the local authorities in a political meeting that went horribly awry. Travelling to Hornwater where many of his allies still live he met George and joined his crew to sail back to Neoursheir. Though a local hero his newly acquired habit of eating snakes, which are considered a holy creature around the area, has meant that people are very much against him.
Relatives/Family
Joe's ancestors live in Neoursheir however his descendant have lived in Bret for many years. There are quite a number of the people around Neoursheir that can claim to be in some way related to the Gaul family.
World/Setting
set in a fictional world much like medieval Europe, there are various mythological creatures around including fairies and undead as well as humans. Humans tend to live with their own kind and only interfere with fairy kind when they want something. Fairies however tend to visit the human world uninvited though most don't cause any trouble unless provoked. Undead however are little troublemakers and disliked by both sides as they are a pest to everyone. In the land of Neoursheir, humans and fairies have lived quite happily alongside each other by keeping to their own kind, however the introduction of undead to the area has caused a stir, especially as they aren't interested in keeping out of other people's business.
Body
Caucasian with pale somewhat red-colored skin, long yellow hair that drapes down the back in two main sets of plats, teal colored eyes.
Clothing
white woolen shirt, white woolen knee socks, green leather shoes with wooden soles, green tartan kilt (kilts used to include the upper body).
Accessories
white fleece sporran (sporrans didn't use to have tassels). Unlike most of the authorities in the north Gaul doesn't carry a shield. Instead he carries an ulu in his right hand. Since Gaul is left-handed this is his shield hand. It's possibly the first evidence of an axe being used in combat ever recorded.
