Description
Deleted the old phone and finger sketch lolDropped some color on this head shot in case I lose interest in the big piece.
Aphid
Race: Nord
Sex: Male
Age: Young adult
Above average height for a Nord
Lanky
Hair: Rust, uneven cut
Eyes: Light blue
Skin: Fair, pale.
Voice: Deep. Mature. Sounds a little older than his actual age.
Personality: Calm, polite to superiors. Tends to be reserved. Obedient, but takes charge of younger brother Kor.
Style of combat: Archer
And as I already said on the outline version before this, Aphid is actually only 4 years older than Kor. But due to having to be the older brother and parental figure since their escape from Grelod, he looks a little bit aged and disheveled (As in, he doesn't spend much time caring about things like evening out his hair cut or meticulously grooming his beard line).
EDIT: Oh, I also just want to add this, since I will likely never really specify it within the story but it's something in my canon about Aphid. Why exactly does he even bother cutting his hair at all? Especially since he's an archer and leaving it all disheveled like that can be a hindrance to his vision? Why not enough length to tie it up?
Well, it doesn't really affect his vision as he can see through what falls in his eyes well enough.
But why he bothers cutting his hair at all:....Grelod.
Before becoming an orphan, Aphid very dearly loved his mother. She would cut his hair to something close to what he has, but neater, of course. After she died, he wouldn't cut his hair as he would become too saddened with the memories to do it.
But Grelod and her abuse would very often snatch him by what was his long hair then, and it was her clutches in his hair that hindered his almost fatal stab at her the night he and Kor attempted to end her.
So since then, even though he doesn't quite trim it to perfection, he'll still cut it to spite the hair grabbing Grelod had done to him.
Last note: As the story is in-progress, a character's look and even personality traits may change. These portraits and short bios reflect who they are at start.
Aphid is an OC of mine within my Elder Scrolls fanfic, Dark Brotherhood: Awake.
