THE CHARLATAN

B I O G R A P H Y

What worth does it have trying to speak kindly of Mercy Malvontain? He'd only take those kind words and twist them into something sour, something foul and hateful so quickly and easily that you wouldn't have a second to realize that they were no longer your thoughts, but his entirely. The charming, red-gazed son of the town's armorer, Mercy is an only child, and for that, his father is likely thankful. Having long since shirked his father's kindness and the family business for a life as a con artist and manipulator, if it weren't for the long, arching antlers and his stature easily twice that of the average skydancer, it would be easy to play him off as a stranger, but Tarrence would never be so lucky.

His mother is a mystery, someone who goes entirely unmentioned both by this silver-tongued salesman and the Imperial he was fathered by, but she could very likely be where he picked up his personality, a shrewd, unkind young man masking his distaste for others underneath a thin, shiny coat of pretty words and flourishes of claws. He is as brilliant as he is vile, and his snake oil and the little 'Freak Show' he maintains at the edges of the town are little more than lies and a thinly veiled cover for an asylum run entirely by its inmates. Those who visit never come back quite the same, but it keeps Mercy well paid, and as one of the few benefactors of Vaudemire, he's not a man to question, Gold is gold, after all, especially for little, miserable towns like this one.

It seems he isn't without his kindnesses, however, the few children he's fathered regard him fondly, and his youngest daughter Wisteria is his pride and joy, often seen at his side when out and about in town. In a similar vein, his lovers rarely speak an ill word of him, least of all the lovely, demure Laelette, his most recent wife and regarded often as his partner in crime- no matter how unwilling she may be to participate in her husbands' facades, she still follows along quietly, and he is ferociously protective of her and her honor- the rare fool who speaks unkindly about her within earshot of Mercy typically met with the business end of a plague-tainted beak or a swift fist to the jaw for their troubles.

A P P E A R A N C E

Mercy is a large, male skydancer, standing a solid head and shoulders taller than most of his fellows of the same species, his lineage is clearly that of a mixed breed, the signets of a imperial marked into his frame. He bears a pair of long, dark antlers atop his head, and short, vestigial whiskers near his beak, as well as sharp, needle-like teeth within the confines of his maw. He bears several swirling, looping designs on his main body, they twist and dance among themselves, almost as if alive under his skin, only stopped by the thick plates of cut stone tucked into portions of his body, these seem to be as much a part of him as anything else, likely inherited from a parent, as his father's few remaining 'flesh' portions certainly appear to be made of glittering stone as well.

Partially shifted, Mercy maintains his more physically imposing stature, muscular and rough compared to purebreds of his species with faintly tanned skin and sharp red eyes with naturally black sclera. Like many skydancers, his feathers remain present within his features, growing behind his ears, that are pierced heavily, and slightly pointed. His stone-like appendages are more obvious within this form, as well as his tattoos of roses, bones, and shackles, though they don't appear to cause him any pain, it is possible to see his bones through the shimmery, purple stone. He often doesn't expose his wings in this form, keeping them carefully folded down and tied to his back beneath his clothing.

Stylistically, he doesn't really stand out from the people of Vaudemire Way, dressed in suits and ties, tattooed and pierced where clothing doesn't cover, but somehow, he's managed to make it more flashy than the others of his hometown, rubies and gold inlaid in his suit buttons, a lapel pin displaying the head of Bloodmoney, his beloved Dire Hyena companion holding embroidered edges back from his neck. His teeth are similarly ornate, the sharper canines within his mouth wrapped in sparkling black metal and glimmering red stones, glinting in the light when he flashes a smile. Thick bands of jewelry adorn his antlers as well, hung with ornately carved stones and bone trinkets gently clicking together as he moves in an animated fashion. His wings carry his 'stock' more frequently than not, keeping his snake oil and useless herbs on hand for anyone who might seek a panacea for their suffering- and away from those who might seek to gain a closer look...
