Description Name: Zack
Title:The Windrunner
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Race: Human

Height:170 cm /5'7''
Weight: 75 kg/165,35lbs
Hair color: Slate grey
Eye Color:Emerald  green

Profession: Mercenary
Weapons: A  short-sword, it is custom made and has a ring on its hilt, this allows Zack to change its angle in mid swing and cause some surprises! It actually has a wooden hilt around the metal, however after using a sword for too long the hilt gets slick and smooth, which is dangerous therefore it is wrapped in bandages. He also keeps small smoke bombs and daggers on his person.
Powers: Seems to have a sense for danger other than that none other than his swordsmanship.
Strength: Zack is of short stature yet rather quick on his feet. He has excellent reflexes , being blind on  the right eye he developed a keen hearing on his right ear. His strength may be a bit above average but his intelligence and endurance is top notch. Even in the most difficult situations he can think of a solution to save his  clients.
Weakness: Zack is blind on the right  eye, giving him a blind spot,  despite his 'danger sense' and the keen hearing it is still a weakness. Furthermore he is not the strongest or  tallest person around, his sword arm is therefore shorter than most others,giving him yet again a disadvantage. Another weakness may be his kindness, he helps people in need, but this also means he sacrifices himself for others,thus he will get injured  and this may be one day his end.

Home place: Teva'Ata you can find it on the map here:  
Personality: Zack is a carefree guy, he is a child at heart and cherishes Family over all else. He can't understand people that abandon or chase other that are different away. He is a very understanding  ,yet naive person. However there is a  calm and collected side on him, something  stern and serious that kicks in during though situations,a side he lets out when a job has to be done and a life to protect...or taken. Zack can be described as a brave naive hero.
Hobbies: polish his weapons,hang out with his 'brother' Kayden, date Sitara ,tend to the plants, carve wooden figures, to run through plains
Likes: Nature, the wind, to run with the wind, Sitara, the stars , to bring books to his 'brother'
Dislikes: Fire, destruction,bloodshed, people being abandonment 
Fears: The death of  loved  ones, to lose the ability to run, enclosed places, dark places

Biography: The young lad known as Zack was born and  raised in  Teva' Ata , a place were trees were not  just used to build a home,  but part of it itself! The large and thick trees are used to make treehouses and therefore it is no wonder that newcomers first stare in awe at  this town. Teva'Ata is a harbor town ,with many ships arriving and departing each hour. A place befitting a curious guy as Zack. He would often  sneak out of his house and sneak to the market place and ask people random questions  about the outside world.

The lad was about 7 years old, when he and his parents decided to travel  to a bigger city to get some stuff,like metal, but also food. The stormy season had been bitter to all and therefore little to no ships had shown up. In order to survive the people of the town traveled to nearby cities within their country to gather resources. In order to travel safely they joined a caravan with some mercenaries, but hunger can drive people mad. Bandits, driven insane by their growling stomachs, assaulted the caravan. The lad hid  under fallen cart to escape the madness. It was dark and gloomy, the sound of agony and  sorrow still reached him despite his hands covering his  ears! Bodies were thrown left and right and  some fell next to his cart, blocking out the little sun that was left! Little Zack couldn't help but sob as fear gripped his tiny  heart so tightly. Attracted by the sound, some bandits kicked the cart over revealing the tiny boy underneath! Zack didn't seethe sword and yet knew he had to move, he quickly backed away as the sword came down and instead of splitting his skull, it only  cut his right side of the face! The rest of his memories are foggy and he only remembers that he and  his father managed to get home, but this day he had lost his mother together with his right eye. His father lost an arm but was still as kind as ever.

Instead of despising and fearing bloodshed, the boy started to seek it out and begged his father to let him join the Mercenary guild. Stejorra has several guilds, among them the Guild of the 'Sword Brothers' , the Sword Brothers are mercenaries, yet all act according a code. The code is meant to protect the clients but also the sanity of the mercenaries. Zack was still a young lad when he joined, almost deemed unfit, but a veteran took him in as apprentice. Zack's Mentor , a one armed warrior with the name Archbolt Noctar, taught the boy to stay himself all the time. He was taught to protect and save instead of destroy and kill. " You only kill if you have to",when the boy asked why Archbolt only smiled weakly. " A broken Pride  will heal. A  lost limb hurts, but the pain will fade away. A lost life...a lost life leaves a deep gash, nothing will replace  it. Everyone connected to the dead one will suffer, even the one that took the life. This my boy is called guilt. And guilt can drive you into madness"

After his apprentice ship, Zack decided to   venture out and take as many  jobs as possible. Not to revenge his mother, but to gain money for a life together with his beloved Sitara. He had met her when he was still a young boy and had fallen in love with her ever since. In order to marry they decided  to save up money for a good life. now after years of work he is almost done with his quest, but storm clouds brew over the land...Fate has different plans....


****************************************




All my drawings are important to me, but among all original characters it is probably ZAck that i love the most.

Zack was my first original character and he went through a lot of fandoms...till i decided that he needed his own story. Thus i started working on the 'Forgotten Heroes' a shame it takes so long.

He is a rather short dude, but don't let this fool you. He can and will kick ass! The scar across his eye injured the eye ,thus blinding it, he often keeps it closed despite having a glass eye which is a perfect replica.
Zack works as mercenary and is part of a special guild. Throughout the years he gained the title Windrunner, for his is quick with the sword and even quicker with ending a fight, to those who watch it appears as if he runs with the wind.


It sure was a long road form that:    to now, don't you think?

Edited, now he got a bio and a ref, look~

Also i used this stock as reference  for the poses:   so lots of  thanks to:
