Appearance
Physical Description
Above average height for humans but really not that tall for an aasimar. Athletic build, not really from training but more so from daily physical activity required for a rugged lifestyle.
Body Features
himbo tiddies
Facial Features
About 5-6 scattered black moles, rather small, with the largest ones being at the bottom left of his mouth and near the outside of his right eyebrow, the smaller ones spread between. His cheekbones are prominent and his nose is button-esque.
Identifying Characteristics
Well... he is green, and his eyes are a caramel brown/orange.
Physical quirks
Very rarely, after being wracked for long periods of time with visions from Svipul, parts of his shoulders and back will sprout smooth white feathers. They're very uncomfortable to have under clothing.
Apparel & Accessories
A dark red shirt and brown trousers, with warm black boots lined with fur. He wears hide armor that has seen better days, and a dark grey wool cloak lined with white fur that also creates a warm, puffy collar around his neck. Underneath his hide armor is a light blue vest, and a necklace with a pendant showing the scales and spear of Tyr.

Personal history
Eindride was born to human parents in the impoverished region of Aspain, in a small village near the White Cove. The birth of an aasimar was heralded as a sign of great change for the North, whether good or bad, and as such, his family gained respect in the small community, and with his birth he brought a sense of hope that had long been missing from the poor bygones of his village. His appearance was startling- skin of muted emerald green and eyes empty and the color of caramel- and while he grew to be admired and respected for his birthright, he was never treated like a child, or a full human, by the community.
He learned a strong sense of duty, responsibility, and justice from a young age, both from being on the receiving end of urgent, sometimes violent visions relayed to him from the Valkyrie, Svipul, of what would be expected of him in his life-long service to Tyr, and from being the third oldest child in a family with eight children. His duty to Tyr only just barely surpassed in importance his duty to his family and community, as he exercised his sense of order and civilization through contributing to the bettering of the people around him. His father was a coal miner and worked long hours in treacherous conditions that left him ill or injured most of the time at home; his mother came from a family of trappers that provided furs and leather equipment and armor to workers and soldiers in the area, but struggled to export their goods through the mountains, and had fallen on hard economic times as the population of the village decreased.
Eindride became a third parent to his five younger siblings, learning to cook for them and keeping peace and order in a large household. When he wasn’t taking care of them, or engaged in his divine visions from Svipul, he was with his mother, becoming familiar with the nature of the area and the connection between person and animal. However, religious members of the community urged his family to send him off to the holy city of Aspain, Frostborne, at the age of 15, forcing him to leave behind his family and start his journey into becoming a paladin. His studies took longer than the average student despite his early start, as he had not had a comprehensive education up until that point, and had to catch up on the basics before his training could truly begin. He took the Oath of the Crown in the hopes of bringing order, justice, and civilization to the despairing region around him.
Education
Eindride's knowledge of religion and survival all come from life lessons and his birthright, rather than schooling. He never received formal schooling and his parents could not home school, so up until he went to Frostborne, he could just barely read and write. He had to learn, of course, for his religious studies, and to better communicate with his classmates, but it's still something he struggles with and gets embarrassed about. He had spent most of his childhood taking care of his siblings, unable to truly educate them or himself.
Employment
Currently a paladin, but used to occasionally help his mother out with tanning hides and stitching up furs into clothing.
Failures & Embarrassments
His lack of education makes him slow to the draw sometimes, despite his worldly wisdom. He still struggles with reading and writing when put on the spot, and when asked to relay information or share tips or skills, he blanches. Despite his excellent people skills, he sometimes has a stuttering problem, and falls flat on his face when it comes to 'intellectual' conversation. Definitely not a puzzle solver.
Mental Trauma
For all of his life, he watched his father suffer from illness and pain afflicted by his difficult line of work. Because of this, Eindride has an mental tic associated with sickness and disease- he seeks to dispel all pain and illness when he is able to.
He also had a lil thing goin on in paladin school that I need to finalize but it involves a longtooth shifter and weird teenage feelings

Morality & Philosophy
Eindride pledged to the Oath of the Crown, feeling that fulfilling his service to his deity, his community, and society as a whole was the only way to bring prosperity and peace back to those in turmoil and despair across the region. He seeks to stand between all that is good in the world and the evils of societal destruction; he is self-sacrificing, but never sees it as a sacrifice, but rather as what is necessary, as he has been gifted divine strength in order to uphold justice and bring the holy light into the world, by any means possible.
He is dedicated to the Tenets of the Crown:
Law. The law is paramount. It is the mortar that holds the stones of civilization together, and it must be respected.
Loyalty. Your word is your bond. Without loyalty, oaths and laws are meaningless.
Courage. You must be willing to do what needs to be done for the sake of order, even in the face of overwhelming odds. If you don't act, then who will?
Responsibility. You must deal with the consequences of your actions, and you are responsible for fulfilling your duties and obligations.
person.sexuality
Mostly disconnected from sexual or romantic attraction in a physical sense, as his peers were always off-put by his appearance. Would theoretically be attracted to someone more similar to himself- it doesn't have to be an aasimar, but rather someone on the 'outside' as he is. Has had an almost-sort-of-not-really "relationship" of this kind before, but it ended in difficulty.
person.gender_identity
As Eindride feels a disconnect from humanity, being barely similar to humans, he also feels detached from gender identity. He recognizes himself as a 'he' but not a 'man,' and feels comfortable being referred to with masculine or neutral language (he/him or they/them). He feels no personal connection to the feminine, despite some of his more feminine characteristics, as he often felt the distinct difference between himself and the two sisters around his age.
