<strong>Name:</strong>Maksym the Swift<br/><br/><strong>Race:</strong>Hume<br/><br/><strong>Class:</strong>Fighter/Man-at-Arms<br/><br/><strong>Age</strong>: "The younger side of middle age" (early to mid 30s)<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong>Tall, broad-shouldered, and well-muscled under the fat of age, Maksym certainly appears every bit the adept fighter he is, though one might be surprised that such an experienced fighter sports so few scars of battle. His dark hair is closely cropped for safety's sake and typically concealed under his helm anyhow. His armor consists principally of a brigandine with several pieces of supplementary plate, in addition to the open helm and bevor (the latter of which he wears rarely). (https://i.pinimg.com/564x/f7/a0/df/f7a0dfefc1f74375825a1f03f5c9847d.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong>: Maksym is a man of contradictions, a well-known braggart and hero who nevertheless tends towards nervousness in polite company. Though he may not always be comfortable, he is usually willing to lend an ear to those in distress, or to help those in need.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Maksym the Swift needs little introduction, formerly a distinguished knight serving in the Ordered Companies of Margraf Yan Zizak. Perhaps his most famous exploit was his most recent, surviving Zizak's bloody demise with both his life and, to a degree, his honor. Since then, he has become a wandering knight-errant, not quite a mercenary for lack of gainful military employment.<br/><br/><strong>Skills:</strong>Skilled with his pollaxe (https://collectionapi.metmuseum.org/api/collection/v1/iiif/26758/1425690/main-image) and sword (https://64.media.tumblr.com/73c5446f831796e2c152cae6bfd6682c/293dc7431bc9fc60-3e/s1280x1920/1d9a1b8a10a2d32a7c4e36a1ba4079fe5343c0c4.jpg) as befits a man-at-arms, though he has an idiosyncratic style that distinguishes him from other men at arms.<br/><br/><strong>Languages:</strong>He speaks both Common and Pantazian, but with a somewhat unplaceable accent.<br/><br/><strong>Extras:</strong>He is not all he appears to be.
