Camden

[Camden]

Camden Basic Information Race: Kelvic - Fox Birthday (Age) : 506 AV (3 years old) Gender: Male Physical Description Fox: Camden has a reddish-brown coat except for his underside and the tip of his tail, which are white. He has black lower legs, black ridges to his outer ears, black accents on his tail, and a sort of black smudge of fur along his muzzle which can often be used to distinguish him from other foxes. He weighs 13 pounds and is roughly 40 inches long. Human: Light, reddish-brown hair sweeps back from a high forehead. Camden has subdued, dark amber eyes, a sharp nose, and a shadow of stubble over his jaw that seems to grow back within minutes of shaving. Even his complexion seems to have a slight reddish tint to it. His build is decently-muscled, but wiry - certainly more used to agility than raw strength. He stands at exactly six feet and weighs around 160 pounds. Because of his background, Camden has picked up a number of human affectations, including clothing. Unlike many Kelvic, he is more frequently found clothed in public, typically in clothing befitting a traveling troubador and saving his more "natural" moments for home life or around trusted friends. He usually has a stringed instrument of some variety on his back, a rapier hanging from one side of his belt, and a tankard on the other. He feels an almost irresistible need to snatch someone's hat if he finds it particularly ostentatious, so if he is seen wearing such a hat, you can be sure he's been up to mischief, recently. Character Concept Having spent a long time around humans and other civilized races, Camden's personality is not as feral as most Kelvic. Although still a wild animal at heart, this tends to come out more in moments of passion or violence rather than being a general state of mind. He has an extensive vocabulary and, although he has little patience for most of it, is well aware of the ins and outs of more gentlemanly courtesies. Many people are quite surprised to learn that he is Kelvic, if he ever even bothers to reveal that to them at all. He is a passable bard and swordsman, although he considers himself professional at neither. Camden gets through life on his wiles and his wits. He frequently gets into trouble and, just as frequently, wriggles his way out, again, especially as he is prone to steal small items or food. He is slow to outwardly show anger, but he is not very slow to feel it. More than once, someone has felt they were having a grand time joking around with Camden only to find themselves in a bare-fisted brawl or an impromptu duel because of a perceived insult. He is, on the whole, good-natured with an easy smile and a song on his lips. He is the first person to buy a round for everyone at the tavern and the last person to leave it. His more flawed proclivities, however, can make him difficult to live with if one is unaware of what one is getting into. As a result, he tends to travel - sometimes willingly, sometimes with a town's watch helping him on his way. Despite his rather carefree attitude toward life in general, his experiences have made him worldly, and he has moments of pensiveness and wisdom that come from someone who has simply seen a lot of the world and known a lot of people packed into his few years. He has very few true friends, but he is extremely loyal and protective when he has them, putting his own needs aside to serve their interests. He hates oppression in all its forms, and whether it is the town bully roughing someone up for spite, or an entire society that runs on the principle of the strong exploiting the weak, Camden will be first to volunteer for bringing down the people responsible. He is fearless in these situations, sometimes taking on those much more powerful or numerous, and often to his own detriment. He still has not learned his lesson in this regard, and one wonders how long it will be before one of these losing battles ultimately does him in.
