Neutral GuyName: Kane
Race: Man
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Class: D&D's monk-like class
Equipment: Trained in the deadly art of unarmed fighting, Kane needs no weapons aside from his fists. The only semblance of a weapon and also the only thing of value on him is one mithral gauntlet given to him by a dwarf craftsman whose life he saved from some roaming orcs. He wears no armor and counts on his speed and mind to prevail in battle. Kane also packs some darts imbued in poison and a little crafting knife neatly stashed in his boot.
History: Kane is known to few and his history to even fewer. He was a child of Rohan, but when orcs raided his village, his parents sent him away on the fastest horse they could find. A few days later, starved and exhausted he was found by the Drúedain of Ghân-buri-Ghân's clan. For the next several years he lived with the Drúedain and learned their ways. Most of all, he learned how to enter those deep places in his mind through sheer discipline and meditation and found new strength there. He learned how to exceed the limits normally imposed on others of his race. After a decade of life with the Drúedain, he left in search of perfection. Traveling extensively through entire Middle-Earth, never staying in one place except when he found a new way to improve himself. On his travels he met only one person whom he might call a friend -
Radagast the Brown. Whenever he met him, he learned something new and many a trick that
Radagast taught him saved his life more then once. He is still out there, traveling the Middle-Earth in search of perfection.
Appearance: There is not much to be seen when one looks upon Kane. A short and thin man, always looking ragged and resembling a beggar, few even notice him. His one mithral gauntlet is always on his arm, but always wrapped in black cloth so as not give away that this man is more than meets the eye. His enemies have always underestimated him, to their own doom. The only hint a careful observer might get that this man is not your usual beggar are his eyes. Deep and grey, showing wisdom and experience beyond age, those eyes reveal this man for who and what he really is - a perfect warrior.
Personality: Kane strives for perfection, for unification of mind, body and soul and perceives as an enemy anyone getting in his way. He cares little for the doings of others so long as they are not obstructing him on the way to his goal.
Never saying anything unless he is asked and even then he rarely cares to answer. As much as he doesn't care for other Free Peoples of Middle-Earth, he helped many a man, elf, dwarf and even a hobbit in need. But it was never because of the goodness of his heart, but because he saw another chance to test himself, to further push the limits until there are no more limits. One might say he's a death seeker, running into battle unarmed, unarmored and always against greater numbers, but that is far from the truth. Always calm and calculated, Kane knows he can prevail against any foe. However, there is also an emptiness in him. He knows of it, but denies it. Always alone, Kane knows no real friends and no real love. He perceives it all as a weakness, but if he looked closer, he might see it for what it was: another step to perfection. For he will achieve nothing of the sort until he gets rid of that emptiness and so he travels the world in an endless search. A search for friends, even though he might not know it; a search for love, even though he might deny it. And so he still travels the world looking for that one enemy... that one perfect enemy whom he must defeat to achieve his own perfection.
Alignment: Kane doesn't see the races of the Free Peoples as friends, but he does see the orcs as an enemy.
