OOC: I wanted to make a neutral character that I can put anywhere. All my other characters are bonded together in some way or another...

Name: - Retribution (Most know him as Ret)

Age:- 79

Gender: - Male

Skills: Iron will - Due to his self-imposed training, Ret has an unbreakable mind. His mind is surrounded by a wall that cannot be broken unless something actually touches him physically. His skills at infiltrating other's minds are somewhat lacking due to this and he never speaks telepathically to anyone or anything.
Wordless Magic - Due to his upbringing (See history), Ret has an uncanny ability with magic. His mind has adapted to the fact that he does not have much talent learning languages and has allowed him to grow to be able to get what he wants without talking. So far, not a single spell has done something he didn't want it to do.
Magical Strength - Ret has bound himself with many spells and wards that allow him to hold vast amounts of energy which release at a moment's notice. Unfortunately for Ret, he has to concentrate to release this energy which gives him a small gap between spells. He works to destroy the gap completely.

Race: - Human

Hair: - Brown

Eyes: - Hazel

Home Village: - Those in the Empire would say he comes from Surda, but those in Surda swear he is from the Empire. His true home town lies within the Hadarac Desert with the wandering tribes.

Parents: - Mary and John

Siblings: - None.

Character Personality: Before the accident, Ret was a fun-loving human who enjoyed other's company and often made jokes at his own expense. He used to enjoy the simple pleasures of life and how he could sense the life of all the organisms around him. Now, Ret has withdrawn into himself and enjoys nothing but the use of magic. He treats others with the same disdain as he would give himself. He is depressed most of the time and walks as if he is carrying a burden so heavy it nearly forces him to the ground. He hates the world around him but knows it was not its fault for his sadness which makes him confusing to meet. He will talk as if all the problems in the world were because of you and also talks as if he was talking to himself. His roundabout way of conversation will often leave others more confused than when they began. He approaches anyone with hostility and does not change even if he begins to know the person. If asked, Ret may do what is wanted but he will only do what is asked and keep a reminder in his head for a later meeting in case he needs something. Ret has an unwavering sense of duty and will make sure that every debt is repaid, if he owes a favor to someone he will make sure it is done correctly and if a favor is owed to him he makes sure that it is reapid... One way or the other.

Character History: Ret was born to two very normal parents that lived within the Hadarac Desert and they hailed his coming as a sign that their lives would be good for the rest of their days. His magical ability was apparent in his early days, drawing water from the deepest parts of the earth when they were thirsty and even stopping the wind from tearing at their tents. They rejoiced like never before. Unfortunately for the tribe, they were too blind to see the fact that, although Ret was powerful, he was undisciplined and thus when Ret was thirteen he grew angry with the fact that the woman he liked was being swayed by another man. He then grew depressed and wandered to his tent and wished that everyone would go away. He suddenly extremely tired and very hungry so he decided he would get something to eat before he retired. When he left the tent all he could see was clothes on the ground, he tried looking everywhere for anybody but there was not a being to be found. His life went downwards from there, wandering the land alone with magic as his only companion. He wandered for three more years before a rider and dragon spotted him close to death. Faolin and Maerin, Ret later learned, nursed him back to health at their home. When they learnt of Ret's unusual gifts they revealed him to the coucil of Dragon Riders who presented him with several eggs which were going to be presented around the world.
One hatched.
From that day, Ret had a purpose in life again. The riders had given him a life which he cherished. He was even able to forget the terrible crime he had committed and have some peace in his life. He called his dragon Mor’ranr (Peace), who acted as his name implied. Peaceful. The Rider's tried to teach Ret about magic, how it worked and how to say the ancient language. Ret attempted to learn the language and then use it with magic but he found that it was easier without the use of the language and that the spells worked better without them. During his training he almost never went without using his magic to manipulate an object around his hands, some would call this fiddling but he found it helped him concentrate on the lesson. Magic permeated every inch of his body as well as Mor'ranr's as their strength increased. Ret was happy until Galbatorix took power over the world and began to slaughter dragons. When Ret came face to face with one of the Forsworn their minds fought for dominace over the other for what seemed like an age, until finally Mor'ranr gave what they wanted wanted... Mor'ranr spit out his Eldunari and before Ret could move, the forsworn slew his dragon. Ret was put into a rage and launched whatever attack he could against the dragon and rider. Ret used his knowledge of magic without words to defeat the rider and dragon and slew him, breaking the dragon's Eldunari. Ret gingerly picked up Mor'ranr's Eldunari and wept deeply, blaming himself for not being stronger.

He went into exile that day, training himself to feel nothing, to be one with the only love he had left to him. Magic. He trained his mind to be closed to all except Mor'ranr. He told himself that he was not worthy of Mor'ranr, that he had to prove that he could be as strong as he was in life. And thus, Ret came out of hiding so that he could prove that he was worthy of Mor'ranr.

Weapons: Ret owns no physical weapons of any kind, but then again, he doesn't need any.

Likes: - Magic, and magic only.

Dislikes: - Everything else.

Animal Companions: - None.

Character's Physical Description: Ret is by no means good looking, his hair is balding and short. He is thin, tall and wears a baggy shirt with loose pants. He wears no shoes at all and hold nothing but a pouch which hangs by a necklace. He has no visible marks or distinguishing features on him aside from the fact that when looked at, he looks as if he has stared death in the face and come back from the encounter. His eyes show no mercy, no compassion and look as if there was once a soul there, but no more.

Dreams for the Future: - To die in the most extravagant way possible.

Reason for Dreams: - To be worthy of being reunited with his dragon.

Alignment/side: - His own.

For dragon riders only:
Dragon Name: - Mor’ranr (Peace)

Age: - 10 when alive, 4 in Eldunari.

Gender:- Male

Parents:- Carinthin and Persil

History: Mor'ranr's history began with hatching into prosperity of Ret, he shared Ret's life and experiences and soothed Ret when memories came back of what he had done. He learnt everything he could about his rider and made sure that he did everything possible to keep him from becoming sad again. When the forsworn attacked he did his best to keep his rider from harm and when all seemed lost, he gave his soul to protect him. After he was killed, Mor'ranr began to understand Ret's need to stay away from others and also began to understand the depths of Ret's power. Although he couldn't do much for Ret, he knew he would be able to help Ret with the thing he enjoyed most. Magic.

Personality: Mor'ranr, like Ret, used to love the company of others. He enjoyed learning from different masters and meeting different people and dragons. After his death, Mor'ranr became secluded and began to distrust all other people. He hated what had been done to him and strove to make sure that Ret could do all he could. He was always proud of Ret, but he knew that Ret wouldn't accept it until he too died,

Colour: - Orange

Appearance: Mor'ranr's eldunari is very small, although he shares parts of Ret's power which makes him extremely powerful. It holds very little light unless he is channelling power to Ret.

Armour: (if any) - None.

Dreams for future: - To stay alongside his rider

Reasons for dreams: - To make sure that he finally lived his life the way he should.

I have proofread my own character and I would like it if both Star Gazer and Draco could look at it. I do accept this character however.
