all horrible people.
Weapon is the only issue. If you want your character to be a Mana user, their weapon can't be ranged, but instead be a one handed weapon of some sort. My character uses a short sword and our medic uses a Naginata.
A weapon with long reach would make mounted combat easier, but a short one would allow for easier close combat.
Here is the character sheet of Aara'toskr - without any corrections for him as a Relic hunter. Kern took away his axes and kept the knives. Also his empathy was changed to water (as Kern missed that he had a Sullisin father) -no problem really. Ah' yes, he was born on the surface in the Illhar'dro colony of Saosh, so he is a dokkalfar. As I understand his uniform has to be changed to Sharen, was it? And I suppose no fur cape.
About the double axes -
here is a link. The axes would be about 1,2 meters long carried crosswise on his back. He might be comfortable with a single axe if needed - as he would have no Arshin war bird in these campaigns.
What else has to be corrected?
Aaaaaand, his backstory is three pages long if anyone is interrested.
Araa’toskr Han’dai Val'Illhar'dro
— short called: Toskr
Son and eldest child of Raai’chael Han’dai Val'Illhar'dro, born 1059 – 55 years old
• Name: Araa’toskr Han’dai Val'Illhar'dro
• Race: Dokkalfar
• Ancestry: Han’dai sub house of clan Val'Illhar'dro
• Profession: Military, squad leader
• Martial ability: Martial art in hand to hand combat – (dual) horseman’s axes for bird back fighting. He is also skilled in knife battling (carried hidden in his clothing).
• Mana affinity: Oh, so difficult. I would prefer empathy combined with traditional water affinity (bad in the Under World – good in the Old World). If not possible only empathy.
• Uniform: Traditional Illhar’dro uniform with a cape of thick fur (maroon) and Arshin war bird feathers in orange (he is only wearing the cape when appropriate). His favorite colors can also be seen in a scarf in his uniform.
• Civil costume: Maroon and orange are his favorite colors. And did I mention fur? He’s quite a clothes snob; His fancy for the moment is the Jie’yen McHammer pants (as Layani’s in chapter 34 page 9) with tribal patterns on the lower parts in his favorite colors.
• Colors: Traditional Illhar’dro blue eyes. Dokkalfar brown skin. Hair is dark blue of Vel’Cahal – in ‘Goddess Knight’ (if possible due to him being a dokkalfar, otherwise white hair). Hair in one ponytail bound up as Sandaur’s hair, but a striped band in his favorite colors. Tip of ponytail is white, also white slings of hair in front of ears. Maroon colored beads in his hair like Rei'shiid’s war bird, one behind each ear short tufts of white hair sticking out in the bottom.
• Size: As a male dokkalfar he is longer than a normal drow female. I would say imposing.
• Personality traits: Alpha male. Flirtatious to males and females. Clothes snob, following the latest fashion. Likes shopping and has a desire to check out new places for inspiration. So he can appear to be like a siyah'khorshed to many people that don’t know him.
• Favorite saying: We are equals (to females). We are as good as them (to males). Innuendos for the older men and his peers.
• Quirks: Openly gay, with a piece of bi – he will want to have heirs so he is not put of to girls (in his age – not elderly women). He prefers elder men (but dislike the feminine or submissive types) but takes what he got of his own age. He often get bad reaction from the males, therefore is happy when he get an opportunity to befriend a Sullisin warrior.
He has a harem of “fag hags” around him in Nuqrah. Layani Vajdya Val’Illhar’dro is not one of them, but the sort of girl he would like to befriend closer. Of male peers, well Khal’harror and Nau’kheol (oh, he likes fur too) fits the bill if they were not too young for his true liking. He doesn’t mind testing the boys even when he is not serious (he is as I have said flirtatious).
He is very fond of roasted chestnuts (from his family’s orchards).
• Character flaws: Alpha male (not good when preferring elder men) and living in a matriarchal society. Sometimes pushes his equal rights agenda a bit too hard. As he is known for this and of having sympathies for Sarghress commoner rule – he is regarded with suspicion by traditional Illhar’dros (looking on him in best case oddly in worst case as a potential traitor). He therefore has problems rising in the ranks as his competence would give him credit for. Elder women looking for young studs scare him – especially those who remember young Sandaur (in bed), he does not like the innuendos of that. He doesn’t like to take as he gives.
• Inspirational pictures: hopefully the back story will suffice.
• Name of his Arshin war bird is Moona.
