Description

A very tall and extremely serious Northman, his keen emerald eyes seem to pay close attention to all around him, and often the stain of ink can be found on his fingertips. A long, thin patrician nose is seated over oft-compressed pale lips, and his lower face is covered with a neatly trimmed blond beard. Depending on his mood, his honey blond hair might be left to brush along his broad shoulders or be tied in braids with bits of metal. Blond brows seem to often be quirked in some amusing observation or another, and his wiry frame is usually held rather straight.

Personality

Unlike many of his Northern kin, Otakar is slow to anger - but conversely, also slow to cool down once that rage has built up. Intellectually curious with an eye towards Southern culture, Otakar has seamlessly blended his belief in the spirits with the ideals of Oathlands knighthood. Pragmatic and restrained, this knight of the North views most problems as one that can and should be solved with as little violence as possible - and when necessary, backed with sound tactics and the precision of a scalpel.

Background

A nephew of Duke Vercyn Halfshav through his mother, Celina, and father from House Redrain, it was fully expected that Otakar's upbringing would be a martial one, battling the tribes of the Shav'arvani under his uncle. And indeed, he fulfilled that expectation with the grim resolve demanded of him, although he took time between his military training to learn much from books both his uncle and mother had sent up to Whitehold. Once he could patrol, he spent time making sorties against the Abandoned on the outskirts of the Everwinter - and then came the battle of Stormwall. Taking to the field with his uncle's forces, the Northern knight acquitted himself bravery, if what he saw there changed his life dramatically. Now, in Arx, he has come to join the Duke's retinue and help battle future enemies to come.
