Ben is the second son of Lord Wane of house Kenelm. Being second son he was destine to live the life of a warrior. Rose from the Anerian Guard to being Knighted in service of the King and his house of Anerith. As was tradition for the minor house Kenelm as they were sworn bannermen to the Aneriths. He will never hold landed titles for he never will be able to sire children. The elves seen to that by making him a eunuch.






Appearance

Ben is of average height, lithe and fleet of foot as well as broad-shouldered and strong-armed. He has an all-around athletic build developed over decades of physical activity from sports and hunting to military drills, combat training and combined with a healthy, but a protein-heavy diet that made him tough and lean but not stocky. This was very much the same look that most of the fighting age Anirian males held as they were all subjected to the same mandatory service in the Guard. Ben keeps a groomed voluptuous left side part auburn hair with long sides and a full beard that could not hide his infamous mischievous grin. His greyish-blue eyes seemed ice cold like the northern glaciers and yet of the hottest fires that burned blue. In his youth he was considered to be a very handsome man, but he has lived a life of violence and hardships that have left permanent marks upon his body. He has many scars across his entire body and his nose had been readjusted more times then he cares to remember. His most noticeable features were given to him while he was a prisoner of the elves of Falwood. Through the months of tortures he had endured, the elves had cut off his right ear along with his the middle finger of his left hand just above the knuckle. The skin on his back was ravaged with scars created by excessive flogging giving a cosmetic look of dried shredded meat. The elves had also emasculated Ben by fully castrating him before they released him back to Vel Anir and his family.

Ben was usually fashioned in simple garb. A light brown long sleeved shirt tucked into a brown tanned hide battle kilt fitted over top his trousers and a dark brown cloak with hood. Usually would war a grey steal pauldron off his right shoulder and metal vambraces. His long handled broadsword rested sheathed off his left hip and attached comfortably by a leather sword belt. When in tournaments or in expected combat, he wears about 55lbs of steal plate armor, bascinet helm with visor and a preference to being mounted on horseback complete with lance and shield.

Skills and Abilities

Ben is well renown for his swordsmanship, a sword master in his own right making him a formidable warrior. Was said that when he wielded a blade, it was as natural to him as if the weapon itself was just an extension of his own limb. Arguably Ben is one of the greatest living duelists to roam Liadain, but those that ask him he humbly replies "Always someone else better". Ben is a skilled tactician, cunning and wise though he detests trickery, plots and schemes. When it comes to horsemanship, riding and fighting from horse back is just as easy as walking and breathing for this anirian knight. Fits the saddle as if he was born to it as from the moment he drew breath in this world, he was dedicated to the arts of war.

Ben is an accomplished tracker and hunter, an expert survivalist that is just as at home in the abyss of Falwood forest as he would be in the great city of Ver Anir. Personally he loves the forest more then the cramped urban city life, even though almost every living creature that calls the forest home wants you dead.
