❆ First Impressions

♜ VISUAL:
The first thing to take note about Estinien is that he stands at 6'6, and is around 240lbs (solid muscle). He's a pretty big dude, height wise, as well as physique. He's trained obsessively for 20 years, and so he's a pretty solid.

However, when he isn't in his armor, he actually has fairly soft features. Honestly, he kinda looks like a princess. Don't be fooled, however, for all he might have more feminine features, he is a man who has seen many battles, and has notable scarring on his body. RARELY WILL SOMEONE SEE IT THOUGH he doesn't make a habit of disrobing often, especially around people.
♜ FASHION:
Honestly, majority of the time he wears his drachen mail. He rarely takes this off, or wears more casual clothes.
♜ DEMEANOUR:
Estinien is very stoic for the most part, he often stands off to the side and away from people, keeping to himself. He's anti-social, and cold, as well as fairly grumpy. However, he does tend to be a bit sassy at times, and will say scathing or humorous one liners here and there. But for the most part, he's honestly just kind of a prick, especially on the surface.

Under it all, he's a decent enough dude, and can be caring... he just lacks a lot of social skills, because in lieu of them, he focused on his combat prowess. He's definitely a rough dude, and an acquired taste to say the least.
♜ AURAL:
Estinien speaks with an English accent, and his voice is rather deep and growly. Especially when he's angry.

Here's his typical speaking voice.

Here's a good example of his more growly tone.
♜ OLFACTORY:
HAA... well ok, so Estinien comes from a world that isn't exactly advanced enough to the point that some of people's biggest worries are whether or not they put deodorant on. It's high fantasy! With warriors and monsters and well, odor is probably the least of a lot of people's concerns. Least of all Estinien's. That isn't to say he never bathes, but it isn't a high priority, so he's likely a bit musky tbh. Besides, it's not like wearing some sort of fragrance is gonna help him kill dragons!

So he smells natural, to put it lightly. And likely of dried blood. He seems to not really care to clean off his armor, and he kills quite a lot of dragons, sooo...

IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE MANGRIT, THAT'S NOT HIS PROBLEM.
♜ MENTAL INFORMATION:
He has no mental shields of supernatural make, however he has a ridiculously strong will. To the point that an elder wyrm, which is basically a god-dragon, couldn't take control of him till Estinien was holding both his eyes (dragons power/souls reside in their eyes, don't ask me), was drenched in Nidhogg's blood, thus being corrupted, and finally let his guard down for a second. Even with all that influence over him which should have allowed this immortal god-like being to be able to snag Estinien, who is a mere mortal, he was able to stave it all off until he accidentally let his guard down.

He did lose to Nidhogg a lot easier due to his rage getting the better of him, but he seemed to be able to strengthen his resolve since then. Even when he was finally possessed by Nidhogg (and for a while at that), he was never fully consumed, and was able to keep himself somewhat aware. He also eventually broke free of Nidhogg's grasp, and could subdue him. SO, NEEDLESS TO SAY, Estinien has ridiculous willpower, and that probably offers him some protection.
♜ MAGICAL INFORMATION:
He carries around the eye of Nidhogg, which is pretty much a hugely powerful magical artifact. It grants him half of Nidhogg's strength, and some magical powers (like Dragons Fire Dive, where he descents upon an enemy with his lance and fire just kinda explodes around him and on the enemy). So, he basically has this huge magical beacon of HEY HERE BE FOUL MAGICS!!! Cuz it's absolutely filled with putrid dark rancor too, and threatens to corrupt those not strong enough to repel it's grasp.

❆ OOC

♜ BACKTAGGING:
I am always down for backtagging! BACKTAG ME INTO FOREVER.
♜ FOURTHWALLING:
I rather avoid fourthwalling.
♜ THREADHOPPING:
I am fine with this! Unless it seems like an important thread, and doing such would be inappropriate.
♜ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS:
None really!

❆ IC

♜ PHYSICAL AFFECTION:
I am fine with this, however, Estinien is not the touchy feely type! He is a huge loner, and just isn't interested, or used to, physical affection. Or any affection. So, depending on how close he is with your character, he will either ask them to cease touching him, silently remove them from him, or he might actually hit them. Also, flirting will get you no where unless you've already gotten somewhere with him.
♜ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE:
PLEASE FIGHT ESTINIEN. He will totally fight back, and I am okay with him being injured or even killed, but the latter, and how gravely the former will be, always needs to be discussed before hand!
♜ RELATIONSHIPS:
I AM SHIPPING TRASH, but I never ship at the cost of characterization. So I am totally fine with something developing naturally, but Estinien is shipping hard mode, cuz he's SO focused on his goals, relationships are just... so far out of his scope, it's kinda sad.
♜ MIND CONTROL/TELEPATHY/ETC:
Your character can try, but as stated above his will power is godly and even a nigh-godly being that was thousands of years old could only take control of him under very specific circumstances. He's been trained and molded in a way to keep absolutely control over his mind and body, and even when he IS controlled, he can wrestle himself out of it eventually. So, good luck! However, telepathy or mindreading will likely be a thing that can get through, so just ask me first!

❆ Warnings

♜ FIRST THING:
Estinien is a hella violent dude, he's also vitriolic as hell! If you're not okay with this, or would avoid anything of this sort, then Estinien might not be for you! Seriously, here's an example of his diplomatic approach (skip to 1:14 for it). He just isn't a very pleasant man.
♜ SECOND THING:
I am gonna REITERATE that he is a negative CR champion, and if you think you're gonna come in and fix him with your character, or think MAYBE THEY WILL BECOME FRIENDS, chances are it won't happen. He is stubborn as hell and infuriating. So, do us both a favor, expect things to go sour, because it's rare that it will go positively.

Seriously, he's a huge jackass! I am not opposed to positive CR, I'm just more so saying it's rare indeed that he will get something that's not at least slightly negative. He's not a very well adjusted man, and he's not exactly the most sensitive dude either. Stubborn as a mule, and lacking a lot of empathy.

❆ KINKS
Right here!

And just a note, these are ICly done, there are things I am def ok RPing that he otherwise wouldn't be interested in, so if there's something not on the list, just hit me up and ask!
