Name: Skane Vaolo
Age: 27
Occupation: Pyromancer, Bum
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Appearance: Skane is handsome, though a little rough around the edges. He has a lean, fit body, dull blue eyes, unkept stubble over his chin and messy brown hair that falls down to his neck. His skin tone is a slightly tanned Caucasian.
Race: Human
Attire: Skane is normally clad in a very haphazardly put-together hood and cloak made of burlap and leather, adorned with some red crystals as bracelets and a necklace. He also sports leather pants and gloves. His right glove specifically is adorned with more red crystals, his tool that allows him to tap into pyromancy. On occasion, when he wishes to protect his identity or look intimidating, he sports a helm designed to resemble a boar.

Characteristics

Skane is a sweet talker, a womanizer and an opportunist. Though good natured in general, the pyromancer is lazy and lives by the mantra "Why earn what you can steal?" He's more than willing to manipulate others to put a little coin in his pocket or nab some rare treasure. He also has a taste for beautiful women and wastes no time attempting to woo them, which results in both success and failure equally. He tends to be very sarcastic and a smart ass, often making fun of his allies plans or ideas. That said, Skane is actually very loyal to his companions in a very loose way. He may pick their pockets or leave them in less-than-desirable situations, but he'll make sure they're at least alive and well. He also tends to live in the moment and if caught in the heat of battle, he'll be your greatest ally. 'Til the battle's over, that is.

A Brief History

Skane grew up an orphaned street rat. When his city was pillaged by an enemy army, he ran away and got lost in the treacherous Dire Swamp. The area was known for viscous beasts, poisonous plants and all sorts of untold danger. The boy nearly met his end to a massive leech when a hooded figure arrived and set the creature ablaze. The man revealed himself to belong to the Swamp Clan, a group of people gifted in the shunned art of pyromancy, the manipulation of fire and other swamp abilities. Pyromancers, being based in the swamp, are generally a rather unkept and rough bunch and pyromancy is a rather primal art, so their kind and their practice are considered rather unseemly by most of the outside world. Skane remained in the swamp until the age of twenty and then ventured out as all his kin do. Since then, he's been traveling around, causing trouble, snagging riches, doing the occasional good deed (for the right price), and stealing the attention of lovely maidens.

Abilities

Fireball- Skane generate a ball of flame in his hands that he may chuck at his enemies. He is currently training to upgrade to a Fire Orb, a variation that is larger and covers more area.

Combustion - Allows Skane to fire a short stream of flame from his fingers. Great at close range. Also learning to upgrade.

Fire Storm- Makes pillars of fire burst from the ground around Stane randomly. Great if he's surrounded and needs to get multiple enemies off of him. Not focused enough for precision.

Poison Breath- Skane taps into the swamp and causes an intense poison to churn in his gut, which he spits from his mouth as a thick, poisonous mist that can cause great harm and sickness to his enemies.

Flash Sweat- Skane coats himself in a thick layer of sweat that briefly makes him fire proof.

Sneaking- Being an orphan all his life, Skane is talented at traveling around silently and keeping out of sight. He occasionally uses this skill to assassinate his enemies, preferring to take them out with a dagger quickly rather than fight them head on.
