He is usually calm as befitting his role as the leader of the Anhelos and in following the teachings of Khalma, however he loses this when he is near a demon, wishing to see them all killed and removed from the world.<br/><br/>Background: Ferrus was born in the holy city of Imer, located in the center of the Cyragian continent. He was born to two parents and an older brother and sister, twins really, and the love the family shared was obvious to all that knew them. He grew up in a carefree environment. He always had something to eat, he always had friends nearby and his older siblings kept away any would be bullied from him, watching over him like a pair of hawks. No life was ever perfect and his family had their share of fights, but it was a good life. But for Ferrus, nothing good ever lasted for him.<br/><br/>It was during the dead of winter when Ferrus was only 10, when the life that he had grown accustomed to was taken from him forever. Night had fallen over Imer and alomst every soul, save the guards of the city, were fast asleep in their beds. All was silent until the clock tower that pierced the sky struck 12, then the night came to life with sound. Screams, curses and battle cries filled the air and are what awoke Ferrus who cowered in his bed. His family all heard the ruckus as well, and since every citizen served in the Host Guard, they began to arm themselves with the gear that they had earned when black clothed figures crashed through the roof and proceeded to slaughter everyone of them. They however left Ferrus alive to let him live with the horror of watching his family get butchered.<br/><br/>They thought wrong however for as Ferrus grew up, a deep hatred within him formed and he joined the Host Guard permanently since he had no aspiration of leaving until the demons that had slaughtered his family had all been slain themselves. He rose through the ranks over the years, always leading from the frontlines where other commanders would have commanded in safety, and always he fought against demons. It was especially against the demons that Ferrus fought his best and he himself slaughtered legions of them. But his best greatest achievement was when the old Matriarch died, and after a brief mourning period and multiple meetings of the Council of Nine, Ferrus was appointed as the new Matriarch and his first act was to declare a crusade against demons. Now, 100 years after his declaration of the Crusade, he still fights a he believe that his promise will not be fulfilled until every last demon has been slain.<br/><br/>Race description: The Anhelos are an angelic like race that that was created by the twin gods Dhalma and Khalma. They mainly served Khalma out of the two as he was more just of the twins and was proven so when Dhalma began to slaughter the races he and his brother had created together. Most Anhelos are fair skinned and don’t normally show any sign of any blemishes, though a few have been of darker or lighter skin color and have shown normal skin blemishes like freckles or birthmarks. Their body sizes range from either from petite to a large build, though the large ones always become bodyguards for important members of their kind.<br/><br/>Hair color usually ranges from a light brown to a dark blonde, some have had more unusual hair colors naturally like a forest green or azure blue, and as a whole they all have two white wings that vary in the colors of white. Only once in their recorded history did any of their kind have any change in their wings and that was their Matriarch when they were first created, who had six wings that were as black as a starless night.<br/><br/>Their society is based roughly like that of the feudal system back during medieval Europe. They have a king and queen that the all obey as a whole, a standing army that jumps whenever the threat of invasion rears its ugly head but have never themselves invade another country but do come to the defenses of others. The Anhelos follow the example of Khalma in the sense that, all life is precious and should be preserved and that all should get along with one another, never to rule over another. There are some of their kind, mostly the younger ones, who like to play around with the other races. They act like guardians to all but even they can’t stand some and demons top that small list due to their deceptive and cruel ways. They are also very superstitious and take head to the stories of their creation and any myth of a race, but they are also a magical and technologically adept race.<br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Socioeconomic Class/Standing<br/><br/>* Class: Paladin/ Matriarch<br/><br/>* Religion: The path of Khalma<br/><br/>* Place of Birth: Born on the Cygnar continent within the walls of Imer<br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Inventory<br/><br/>Weapons: The Spear of Vulkan: A weapon made from a combination of magic and technology. The blade has runes carved into its surface that seem to run along its surface and was enchanted to be covered in a flame that could never be put out, not even under water, and it burns hot enough that it can melt stone. Near the base of the blade the image of a drake has been carefully made so that the blade appeared to be either look like the drake was eating the blade or was spitting the blade out, and the blade of the spear is silver in color and shines in even the lightest of lights. The rest of was dull silver while the drake image and the end of it, which had been sharpened to a point, were made of gold and melded to make the spear into one piece instead of several.<br/>
