Verik Foryx

Verik Foryx is a Tithemaster in the Vyrewatch of Morytania. Orginally an Icyene, he was turned during Drakan's Morytania campaign in the Third Age. Deeming Morytania as a whole more important than any one family, Verik has jumped from coven to coven until he finds one that shares his views.

"Human" F orm
In his human appearance, Verik takes the form of a pale young adult standing at a somewhat tall 6'1. He sports a tattoo of a stitched wound running from the left corner of his mouth halfway up his left cheek. The irses of his eyes resemble the color of blood, being a scarlet/crimson color. The features upon his face, lie most of his kind, are very sharp, a bit too sharp to pass off as someone who is a normal human. He is not overly muscular, but neither is he very skinny.

Vampyric Form
Verik, as a vyre, looks much like an ordinary vyrewatch. He, however, has a much darker color tone overall, being practically black and gray in color instead of dark red and or pink. He has black leathery wings, like most of his kind, with a wingspan of roughtly 17-20 feet and standing at a height of 6'4. While in his vampyric form, Verik's tattoo is still visable, however, it is harder to make out against his black skin.

Normal Wear
Verik enjoys the perks of his relativally high status in vampyric society, wearing fine red and black robes. Usually donning a hood, the top half of Verik's face is almost always hidden by the resulting shadow as to keep a certain sense of mystery about him, as well as to conceal where his eyes are looking.

While on Duty
When preformng duties for the Vyrewatch, Verik dons the standard vyrewatch uniform. Even while on duty, however, he prefers to keep his hood on.

Spear
Verik's main weapon is his spear, forged from an alloy of black tempered steel and mithril (Darkthril), it is used particularly for non-lethal combat. The most usually done with the spear is a few stabs in the waist or shoulder.

Sword
Verik's sword is used on rare occasions, mostly when Verik has the sole intention to kill. With the black steel blade, Verik hacks off limbs and stabds for the torso of his opponents.

Ancient Magicks
Verik, as a vampyre, uses magic in combat aswell. Though he  prefers to stick to the shadow arts, as to ruin enemy equipment, Verik will also use blood magic on occasion.

Verik's Prefered Finisher
If an enemy is not killed during the heat of combat, Verik will put on a gorey display by misting and entering the opponents vents (nose, mouth, ears, etc.). Once inside, Verik drifts to the trachea/esophagus and solidfies. The reaction would be that his opponent explodes into a pile of innards, leaving Verik in the middle.

History and Background
Originally an Icyene of Hallowvale, Verik was turned during the God Wars when the vampyres invaded Hallowland. From then on he supported the rule of Drakan. By the end of the God War, Verik had assumed a position within the Vyrewatch.

The Rise Through The Ranks
Verik was a vyregrunt when he was first stationed in Canifis. There he had made aquiantances such as Lothorian Foryx and Alucard Draculea. For a long time it seemed as though he would never be promoted to a full watch. However, in time he was. It was not until a few years later until he had met Lark Skalov, who let him into her family.

The Skalovs
Verik's time in the Skalovs was quite eventful. With his new "siblings", Verik was encouraged to break free from his dark and moody demenour, something he failed to do. Verik remained loyal to the Skalov coven through several conflicts involving the western lands of Misthalin. Only after tensions began to rise between him and his siblings did he leave.
