Description
For *RoninsUltramix 's Samurai Dueling League. Seles makes his debut!?A Biography?: Aurelio d'Seles is one of Mr. Seles's Italian ancestors. Aurelio is just as money hungry as Mr. Seles... runs in the family I suppose. Aurelio is a bit more.. nuts than Seles. He's more openly cruel, calculating, and cunning. Aurelio is also extremely superstitious, untrusting, and paranoid befitting of wealty Italian men of that era. Aurelio gains more confidence with all the wealth and power he has gained and inherited from his family. Using his relations to Kings, Queens, and the Papacy he build the Seles Trading Company to voyage the world and bring more wealth to him and the West.
He has ventured to Japan to lay claim to the Far East's unique goods and resources. Knights and riflemen have accompanied him as well as a host of femme fatals. He thinks little of his employees. They are basically just weapons and tools to him, but they are loyal nonetheless. Whether it be the lure of wealth, or some twisted charm he holds over them.
Weapons: Aurelio's Rapier, La Spada d'Midas, is a finely crafted weapon. The 7th and final masterpiece of the 7th son of the 7th generation of weapon smiths. Aurelio believes it to be a lucky blade and is highly skilled in its use. He also carries a pistol, with a similar history in its craftsmanship.
His Femme Fatals who accompany him each have their own specialties I'll get into later. They are perhaps the embodiment of the old world belief that women are more deadlier than men.

Doesn't that mean its is imbued with amazingly magical properties?

Seles believes as much anyway. Magic isn't allowed in SDL, so it's only his superstitious belief that his sword is special.

Oh right. So that makes him completely different from his ultra-cool modern-day counterpart, I suppose (yes, I'm a fan. ). Saying that, I suppose modern day Seles would believe in magic insofar that it is a profitable science, or something.
I know a lot of people actually prefer the number "8" as an intrinsically magic number, but I suppose it doesn't have the usual "lucky" associations as the number 7.

probably should have researched what a lucky number was in 16th century Europe, but I decided 7 seemed lucky enough.

I think you're safe with 7. I think my wording was incorrect. Instead of "a lot of people" I should have actually typed "a few select geeks who read books by Terry Pratchett and such authors".

One slick dude, man. The guy certainly has a large amount of connections. He'll be one tough pirate to go up against one day, haha.
You sure put quite a bit of effort into this piece.
