General Information
Appearance
William Shepard does not look the warrior. Rawboned, rough edged, and quiet, he emanates a stringy, aquiescent toughness, born out of a need to accept hard living and disappointments. His eyes are clear and unquestioning and blue, an older man's eyes because they carry pain comfortably. His hair is a dirty blonde that he keeps cut short.
His most notable and eye catching feature is not a natural one, but a work of art - a bitter irony considering his personality. Two simple numbers in jet black are tattooed beneath his right eye: 'IV'. The tattoo itself is magical and infuses Shepard with the ability to see the invisible when he touches it and utters a single word. The word itself is unknown to all but him, and he makes it a point to lower his voice beyond comprehension in the rare times he invokes it.
His armor is a masterfully crafted work of Mithral, and Bardic litanies have been carved word for word into its silver and red surface, giving it tremendous magical protections. The left and right shoulder pads have tally marks carved into its surface - as for what they stand for, only Shepard truly knows - though the general consensus is that it is a kill count. In any case, as it stands now, there are 61 tally marks total.
