The Lightning Drunk

Original System: D&D Fifth Edition (Player, NPC)

Name: Victor Railem

RaceHalf-Elf

Main ClassSorcerer

Occupation: Mercenary, Loving husband and father of 3.

Archetype: A damage dealing powerhouse who focuses on lightning based magic, but is sturdy enough to handle a close range fights as well.

Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Homeland: Harlasator, Age 65 AB

Personality: Angry, volatile, perpetually drunk, family man, unsympathetic, murderous, finicky, uneducated, jaded, not surprised easily, experienced, frugal, cheap, disrespectful, uncultured, dangerous.

Appearance: Victor is a ragged looking man with black unkempt hair and stubble, his eye left looks like he is a man who drinks too much and sleeps too little, and hates his life because of it. His right eye is covered by an eye-patch because he has the right eye of a blue dragon, hollowed out black and white in the center with blue scales at the rim. 

When casting spells both of his eyes become that of a blue dragon. he wears black clothing underneath an asymmetric blue robe that looks eastern in make with grey storm clouds all around it. His clothing looks rather flowy, not giving a solid idea about his build however his waistline from his black sash of a belt tells that he seems rather thinner than the average man. 

His feet have simple wooden sandals. Always hanging from his left hand is a rather large looking ceramic pot with intricate leather thongs connecting it to a strap that Victor holds. The patter from the thongs shows 3 X's that round about the pot. He stands at 5'11" and weighs about 200 lb.

Strengths: Victor is a powerhouse of a mage, most effective when in mid to close range combat. he has taken many feats and ability scores that can make even one of his weakest lightning attacks become fatal to the average man, and his strongest become nightmares for those who stand in his way. 

His hardiness is without a doubt his second greatest strength, and despite being trained as a mage he has the fortitude similar to that of a barbarian. Despite being an absolutely terrifying force of nature, Victor also seems to be a very good parent and even though he got into the adventuring game late in life he still manages to make sure that his 3 kids do all their chores and that he provides for them and his wife with his money as a mercenary. 

Lastly his adaptability to odd situations is higher than normal. He has lived a very strange life, and because of that nothing surprises him anymore, and almost nothing scares him any more, apart from his wife.

Weaknesses: While Victor is a monster in a fight, he isn't very good at things other than that. He has had many jobs over the years, and none of them have worked out up until now. He is both dumb and unlucky as well. He never got a formal education since he was raised as a lesser being in his homeland, and somehow the most unlikely of occurrences always happen to him. 

Because of this he may have no fear, but he also is never careful or never the sort of person to think things through, since his most effective course of action has always been to blast things with lightning. He is also a perpetual drunk due to two things. 

1st when he was learning of his magical powers at an early age he unfortunately was also drunk at the time, making him believe that he needed to be drunk to cast magic. 2nd is his pot that he carries, the only gift he received from his father. It is a flask of infinite amounts and types of liquor, meaning that unless he is sleeping, which is rare enough as it is, he is always drunk so that he can have his magic on hand.

This makes him one of the most unstable and uncaring individuals of all time. That ends up coming back to bite him in the ass almost daily.
