Balli, Alcaeus

tinyurl.com/4qekfnm

Alcaeus is from Greece, purely; and it is quite noticeable. You know, besides the extremely Greek name and all. Alcaeus isn't unordinarily tall, nor is he short. He stands at 5'11, maybe 6' even if he has shoes on. Though oddly enough his skin isn't very tan. Alcaeus has black hair, which he lets do so many things. Sometimes he lets it go crazy and wavy, sometimes it's slicked back; sometimes it short, etc.

Alcaeus has oddly colored eyes. One is blue and the other brown. Though if he feels like it, Al may wear a contact on one of them to make them match. For someone who is so artistic, he doesn't generally pop out from a crowd. His style is normal, jeans and a t-shirt since he only looks maybe in his early twenties.

As a wolf Alcaeus looks pretty typical as far as coloring and shape. Though he is huge, like most werewolves are. Dark fur, mainly black or a dark gray; shapes his entire body like someone threw a cloak on him. His under belly and muzzle white.

ARTSY__

Alcaeus is an artist of every sort, really. A painter, a sketcher, a musician, a sculptist, a molder, etc. The list goes on and on, but when you have over 1000 years to do a hobby, you began to advance on it. The only instruments he plays is the piano and the guitar; though he can also lay it down on a harp. His main joys is painting and drawing though. Something about it releases his soul and keeps his mind in a sane place.

FRIENDLY__

While not overly outgoing, where he chases people down and slobbers his love all over them; Alcaeus is definitely approachable. Sometimes he'll strike up a conversation with a stranger, sometimes he just remains quiet and in his own little world. I'd say he is about averagely quiet and averagely loud; it's all according to the person he is around and the mood he is in.

PHILISOPHICAL__

Again, when you've been around as long as he has you tend to learn some things. Alcaeus likes to say wise things. Not to the point where he is beating people in the head with it, but just intelligent conversations. His theory on the truce is that it is not really living if you are supressing your instincts to make someone else happy; while at the same time he doesn't believe that people should maim and murder because they don't like something.

Alcaeus also believes, religiously, in the Greek gods. He doesn't think for a second that they are mythological. Alcaeus doesn't believe in having romantic or sexual relationships; mainly due to the fact that he doesn't believe you should hurt someone or be tied down to something for long. He isn't the kind for casual sex either, so that's a no as well.

Haha, when you have nearly as much history as he does; you can't possibly remember it all. But thankfully for you, I do, so lets get started! First of all, Alcaeus was born in the year 600. You heard me, this boy was around 600 years after this world was create. No, he doesn't know how it happened; though he does have his beliefs. Being born in Greece in the year 600, he had the typical lifestyle back then. His family was actually not very well known, a distant relative of the super famous line. They were sheep farmers, ironically.

Alcaeus got along about averagely with his family. He had many brothers and sisters. Al believed in the gods with all his heart, though toward the end of the era everyone else started to lose faith. Alcaeus left his family because of this, disgusted with the fact that they could so easily turn their back on the ones that brought life to us all. He became an artist in Athens and made a good living off of it. Knowing what he was, it didn't bother that he would only make a minimum income; he didn't have nearly as many expences as others did.

Times came and changed, Alcaeus bended and molded with them. In some he was a 'starving' artist, in others he was a warrior. Or yes, Alcaeus didn't let himself be walked over. It is hard to keep such a thing as your species a secret. Learning to fight was something he just had to do. Alcaeus was a warrior by fate and an artist at heart, is how he liked to put it. A few slayers and hunters are dead because of him, many soilders are. It wasn't something he enjoyed nor was it soemthing he didn't like; it was simply duty.

Now a days Alcaeus is proud that he can say what he is without worry; though he isn't stupid. He knows things like truces don't last forever, though he isn't very worried of anyone. If he dies he had 1400 plus years on this world; if he has to kill people who attack him oh well. Though money is no issue for him, having all those years to live and make money; he is a cartoon artist for a television station and owns his own studio.
