Personality
Capra is a broken human, years of steady emotional abuse has made him at best off. He is emotionally reserved, and prone to fits of anger, is distrustful of most everyone else aside from a handful of friends. Even then they can still be treated with suspicion if they act out of character. He rarely genuinely smiles, or if he does it’s a stepford smile, one put on for show.
Biography & Lore
For thirteen years of his life his formative years, Capra endured bullying, he was that kind of person where life just sucked. The children who bullied him were bad enough, but what was worse was his teachers. Their active ignorance, favoritism, and blatant disregard of his particular plight showed him just exactly what his peers were worth. When he was of age he quit school, and joined the military.
The military trained him, and he took his training seriously. Every free moment was dedicated to training, and study. That didn’t mean he was dumb enough to not rest when he needed. He asked for, and got advice from the best fighters in his units. He began to favor light slashing weapons settling on something called a willow sword, also employing the dagger, and rapier. He studied tactics, and strategy though he was no stronger than anyone else in his unit just more ruthless.
After the military was done with him, he went straight to the College of Elbion. That same cold ruthlessness that served him well in the military now served him, and only him in the college. Again he studied to an almost an unhealthy level ignoring trivialities like friendship save for a select few he had known for years at that point. His focus was on wind magic, and when he was near graduation he was approached by what he thought was another wizard.
Turns out it wasn’t a wizard but a shape shifted dragon who made him an offer that Capra couldn’t refuse. The offer was for him to be a house agent of one of the draconic houses, in exchange for draconic gifts. Mutations, and all the magical lore he could read absorb. As was said Capra couldn’t refuse it.
