| ~ • ~ | Appearance | ~ • ~ |

.:Physical Appearance:.

Nicolae is very slim, something frequently expected of an constantly traveling nomad. With that, he would obviously be a quick runner. And he is. Especially when the adrenaline starts flowing through his blood, as it would anyone really. Nicolae wears casual themed clothing, and snake skin pants that he made for himself. Made by a man, they are without a doubt poorly made.

But it suits his needs, and that is really all he cares about. His shirt is just another average light brown sewn outfit. It is very much, if not the same, as a peasant would wear. He may also wear a coat over it in winter, and most of fall to keep warm. He can very easily get sick, but only in cold seasons. He's almost never sick during spring and summer.

Nicolae has wavy medium brown hair, blazing amber eyes, and a few scars. He received a tiny scar down his left eye brow while being caught off guard by a wolf. He killed it instantly, but it did not prevent it from leaving a mark. He considers it a shameful scar, for he should have more aware of his surroundings at the time.

His grandmother gave him a scar across the right palm of his hand, to spill some of his blood in dedication to protecting the druids. He hasn't exactly stayed true to that promise, you might say. . .

.:Height:. 6'1"

.:Portrayed by:. Justin Long

.:Personality:.

Nicolae is very different from many others. He's tends to be the cruel one every now and then. Whether he's drunk or in his right mind, he can also be slightly crude with his humor. Despite his disturbing past, he never usually tends to drink -- if you know what I mean -- over it. It happens, however, but not often.

On the other hand, Nicolae can be a very chivalrous and caring man. He is over protective of woman and his so few loved ones, and so few friends. He has mood swings constantly; one minute he's happy and blissful, the next he's depressed and enraged. Whenever he hears the name Uther, he will beyond a doubt become agitated. He could never dislike anyone or anything more than he does the King.

Also, whenever he gets the chance to be with his sister he's very happy and this is the only time when mood swings will not normally effect him.

.:History:.

His place of birth is the Kingdom of Caerleon. Nicolae Rei Jacob is the illegitimate son of Delilah and John. Both parents were magic users, and not of nobility. However, Nicolae has not inherited this skill. He can only practice magic and hope it works. He is not a natural sorcerer. Once Nicolae's mother found out she was going to have a child, she told John and they agreed to marry. Therefore, Nicolae was born in the summer. Only a year after that, his father had an affair with another woman, and so Delilah killed him with her magic.

This, of course, was a five years before the Great Purge brought upon the land by Uther. Otherwise, his mother would never have openly used her magic. After that, his mother was disgusted by her husband's betrayal, and therefore started to dislike Nicolae for being the son of John. Delilah abandoned him in the care of his grandmother, who is also a witch.

He was raised by her, developing quite a nice relationship with the woman. His grandmother taught him everything he knows about magic, and in fact spilled a few droplets of his blood as a promise to the druids. A promise that would mark his alliance with the druids. Nicolae has not stayed true to his promise to protect them. He became aware of of the Great Purge at the age of five but hardly understood it.

When he was old enough, he left his home in Caerleon and became a traveler. That was when his days as a thief began. He stole many things. Nicolae unfortunately became a member of Hougen's -- a murderous and cruel bandit chief -- clan, half under force. He had been given a choice, whether to join Hougen's clan or die like most of the other villagers of the town he had been staying in had. He had chosen to join, only assuming that it couldn't be a horrible life.

He had been wrong. Nicolae had seen nothing like it; in fact, he was disgusted at what Hougen and his men did and practically forced him to do. He had been forced to kidnap the Princess of Mercia s that Hougen could hold her for ransom. When the bandit camp was raided by Mercian Knights, the bandits fought back. In the end, Hougen threatened to kill the princess if the Knights continued to kill his men. Hougen was eventually killed and the rest of his men escaped from the camp, all except Nicolae.

He did something very non-masculine; he begged for his life as the knights were about to kill him, insisting that he had only been following orders that Hougen had forced him to do. That he would have been killed if he disobeyed them. Surprising to him, they spared him and he was just able to make a run for his horse and leave the bandit camp forever. Nicolae traveled the kingdoms in those next few years, grateful that he had been spared. The world seemed like to much of beautiful place for him to die just yet. One day, he arrived at Camelot. There, he became his half sister's servant. Though as of now, neither of them know they're related.
