Kelton Markus
Kelton Markus (a.k.a. Cutthroat)
Description
Cutthroat's hair is blonde, mid length and hastily cut. It looks like it may have been done by a knife as do several scars that disfigure his face. His eyes are cold and grey and his look hard. A nasty scar runs vertically down his throat. He stands silently, his posture trained and poised to strike.Background
Kelton lead a relatively normal life leading up to his promotion to head guard. He was an excellent tactician and fierce fighter and had always served the royal family with pride as both captain and spy master. His faith in the family started to falter as the decrees came in and he began planning a revolt which went relatively well thanks to his rapport with his men. The temple raid was the final straw for him and caused him to push his plan forward. He's not sure if that is what went wrong or if someone snitched but the men who stood by him where slaughtered and he was taken prisoner. The Crown, not wanting to loose their valuable asset, removed Kelton's ability to dissent and renamed him 'Cutthroat' to taunt him, setting him to work as the Crown's personal assassin and ghost captain of the guard. Cutthroat does not know how to read or write meaning that any ability to speak out has entirely been taken from him, though Arlo Teite has been trying to teach him recently. He wishes he could get out of this but he is thoroughly trapped in his position by both the control of the Crown and his sense of duty to not abandon his country.Personality
