Character Sheet for Captain Xeno
Character Description
Captain Xeno is a bisexual/pansexual black unicorn anthro furry stallion, who used to be a "warhorse" in his world's military. His job was to capture ferals and semi-feral anthro equines to be trained as either mounts, soldiers, or both. He lives in a fantasy/steampunk world that would be somewhat similar to the very early Victorian era of our world.
He is large, based more on a Shire horse body type than an Arabian type like many unicorns. He's a fighter so he has some scars. His fur is dark black and his mane, tail, eyes, hooves, and horns are true red. He wears clothes when socially appropriate but at home he likes to keep it minimal - a leather loincloth or a kilt. He has many piercings, and is always up for getting a new one. Xeno likes to get tattoos as souveniers of his journeys and battles.
Personality
He's military at heart, so he likes things to be disciplined and organized and efficient. He's a fair master and actually a nice person - much like a drill instructor, when he is playing "bad cop" towards a slave it is mostly an act for their benefit.
He's a nature fur, he loves to go camping, hiking, sailing, and adventuring in the wilderness. When he was younger he was more of a rogue and a ruffian, but now that he is semi-retired and well-off, he has become more of a gentleman adventurer. He has spent several years exploring the plains of Africa.
Likes/Dislikes
He likes it when furs show each other respect and good discipline.
He enjoys a quiet evening out drinking.
He quite likes to play tribal-style hand drums and to perform tribal dances. He is a decent singer and knows many dirty songs from his seafaring days.
He enjoys taking friends on hiking and camping trips and doesn't mind serving as a "horse" for smaller or weaker furs who need a ride when their paws get tired. He really enjoys the company of feral and non-fur equines and loves playing with foals.
He's not built to win races, but he does love to compete in them anyhow. He's been known to win a few marathons.
He'd rather have a quiet evening at home or at the pub with friends than go to a concert, fair, or party.
Unfortunately, he's a bit of a brawler and is prone to start fistfights with carnivores or other very dominant males like herd bulls.
He likes to travel out to plains areas where feral horses live and catch them to train and sell.
Background/History
After he retired from his tour of duty in the military, he worked as crew on a sailing ship. When the sailing ship's crew eventually mutinied, Xeno fought his way up to the place of Captain.
The crew made a living as privateers and pirates for a time. Once, they robbed a ship that had no real treasure, so they sold the crew as slaves instead. To their surprise, they made a lot more profit than they would have for sale of goods or treasure.
From then on, they became slavers, specializing in the brothel and sex slave trade. When Xeno made enough to retire, he handed over the Captaincy of his ship to one of his daughters, Xanne, who is a Unicorn/Zebra anthro-furry cross.
These days, Xeno still dabbles in the slave trade, capturing or purchasing likely anthros and ferals for training and resale. He specializes in trained bodyguards and/or warsteeds that can double as sexual slaves for their masters.
Relatives/Family
His one mate was Nara, who was a Zebra feral anthro that he captured in a slaving raid on her village. She was a warrior for her herd, and she very quickly made it clear that she would be no one's slave. Nara traveled with Xeno and his crew on their pirate ship, the Blue Rose, for a few years and even became a gunner and topman, as well as fighting during raids on other ships.
She gave birth to Xanne, a zebra-unicorn hybrid, and the baby zebracorn was raised on the Blue Rose for a few years. Nara and Xeno eventually parted ways, more because Nara really wanted to show Xanne their homeland.
When Xanne was a teenager about to have her first mating with the Zebra herd stallion, she was caught and raped by two lions.
Xanne gave birth to two daughter lion/zebra hybrids; Kyla and Ayla, and sent them to be raised by their grandfather, Xeno, because the herd stallion would not allow carnivore furs to live in the herd.
World/Setting
Xeno lives in a low-tech fantasy world that is somewhat medieval, somewhat steampunk, with a few touches of early Victorian England.
Airships and airship pirates exist, as do submariners and odd steam and plasma-powered machines and mecha.
There are no humans or humanoid races such as elves, dwarves, dryads, etc. There are civilized anthro furs, tribal furs who are semi-feral in behavior, and non-anthro animals. Pretty much all mythical species of animal and fur such as dragons, gryphons, etc exist.
Nearly everything is legal in most countries of this world. Slavery, thieving, duels, assassinations, piracy and privateering are all legal, AS LONG AS YOU JOIN THE APPROPRIATE GUILD.
Magic does exist, although mostly it can only be learned by magical species such as unicorns, dragons, gryphons and similar.
Many species have natural magic that is just a part of them. One important type of magic is the ability to hybridize - that is, to breed with a different species. In this world, creatures that are considered "magical" in nature can be fertile with ANY other species that can physically mate with them (or be inseminated/implanted with eggs).
Examples:
- If Xeno the anthro unicorn bred a non-anthro horse mare, the foal would either be a horse in physical appearance, with some unicorn traits such as healing, endurance, and enhanced intelligence, OR it would be a horse anthro-fur foal or unicorn anthro-fur foal.
- If Xeno mated another anthro or feral-anthro unicorn, the foal would definitely be an anthro unicorn. In Xeno's world, "ferals" are basically anthros who have more pronounced animal traits. They are a normal range of variation within the Anthro type.
- If Xeno bred a female mountain lion anthro-fur, the cub might be a lion anthro, a unicorn anthro, or a crossbreed between the two.
-When hybrids breed, their cubs tend to only be a two-way hybrid. If a fox/wolf mated with a bear/lion, their cubs might be fox/lion or bear/wolf (as examples) but it would be very unlikely to get a fox/wolf/lion or a bear/wolf/fox.
The world has no real gods and very few furs actually believe in a deity. The world has countries and governments but they tend to be fairly regional because species don't try to rule over one another very often. The king of the lions wouldn't typically claim to also be king of the giraffes in the same territory.
Body
Xeno is a tall (6.5 feet) Shire-type equine unicorn with glossy black fur, and bright red hooves, mane, tail, horn, and eyes. He is solid black with no white markings, but since he has become mature aged he has started to get a few gray hairs on his muzzle and chest. His skin is also gray-black anywhere that skin shows.
He has quite a few scars and many piercings including genital piercings. He has some tattoos which have been done in black ink that is somewhat darker than his skin. Tattooing was a complicated process because first the area had to be shaved and then branded in the shape of the tattoo to create scar tissue. This prevented the fur from growing back and hiding the tattoos.
He is muscular and strong, and his unicorn healing also keeps him healthy and looking young for his age. However he is obviously a mature male and sometimes puts on a little weight between adventures - though he never allows himself to become fat.
He usually wears his mane and tail as long as they will grow, and keeps them loosely braided when he leaves his home stable.
Clothing
He dresses socially appropriate to the event, and cleans up rather nicely. When in doubt, he tends to default to the military uniform of his culture which is brown leather trousers, black swordsman's shirt laced in front, leather bracers, and a dark brown leather laced vest.
At home, in the stables or working on the farm he tends to wear a leather kilt or leather loincloth, leather braces, and a heavy studded belt and belt pouch to carry any tools or necessities.
Relaxing at home, he tends to strip down to just the kilt or even his culture's unisex version of "pajamas"; a silk sarong-style wrap worn just under the pectorals (for males) or just above the nipples (for females).
When adventuring, he tends to wear his military uniform plus armor and harness, which is a light anthro version of the harness, barding, and plate armor that a medieval warhorse would have worn.
Accessories
Xeno always carries a few knives tucked away in his bracers or as belt knives on his belt or harness. He's pretty good with a knife. His horn is sharp enough and long enough that he tends to "fence" with it in a fight instead of using a sword.
He also tends to hook a few coils of red silk rope to his harness when going out - he's very skilled at knots, lasso techniques, and bondage harness tying. You never know when you might find a new captive. He also keeps a hip flask handy. And when going out to the pub, he often brings one of his collection of tribal drums in case there is a sing-along.
