Profile: > Could hardly be called a "menace", much less a "berserker". While the tall man was strong, well-built and all, his physique was obtained not by fighting with axes and swords but making them. He could certainly hold his own when the time came, but the chestnut-haired blacksmith was built more for stamina on land and sea than he was for mercilessly murdering vast amounts of people. Auburn hair tended to be pulled back into a neat ponytail, keeping it out of the forge and out of stony grey eyes. This one didn't talk much and that scruffy, soot-covered face wasn't exactly inviting, either.

Explanation for Points:

Strength: Typical blacksmith man. He works out and also wrestles bears and moose for fun. A pretty big, muscly guy.

Speed: His size, lack of training and drug consumption make his reflexes and general speed a bit slower.

Stamina: He lives in the woods, does hard labor for a living and can take a bit of physical exhaustion, but he IS a human.

Weapon(s): The only weapon he uses is his striking hammer. It's not MUCH in the way of a weapon, but it is large and capable of breaking bones if dropped from high enough height or used with enough power behind it. a

Armor: Basic clothing, cotton or wool. Nothing of merit or protection, save for from the elements.

Explanation for Points: (If this isn't filled out your stats won't be put into the system. Be specific for each aspects, we don't need the history of your character.)
Strength: Sheng's life has been a build up of major upper body exercise from pit fighter to manual labour, there fore not only does he know how to pack a punch, he has the sheer muscle to knock some teeth out in the process.
Speed: He is not exceptionally fast. Rather average, due to his build.
Stamina: Built up stamina as he worked and fought for the amusement of slavers. He does not tire easily, and can take more of a beating than your average person.
Weapon(s): He does not have a weapon as of yet.
Armor: Being a foo dog, Sheng comes from a line of stone ancestors. This makes his skin naturally tougher than most. Campy has also gifted him with some rough leather armor to provide protection against blunt attacks.

*Primary Weapon(s): None
**Primary Armor: None
Secondary Armor: None
Explanation for Points:
Speed: After leaving her family home because she refused to conform to her parent's ambitions for her, Roxx lived on the streets for a few years. Living rough meant stealing, and stealing meant being sleight of hand, and also being able to leg it when caught.
Stamina: Having to work for everything she's ever owned and shape her life with her own blood and sweat and tears has made her incredibly resilient; having to fight for food, or ward off the advances of intoxicated alleyway-dwellers has resulted in emotional stamina, and a stubbornness that runs so deep she nearly has an inability to accept defeat and stay down. So long as she can wipe the blood away from her eyes and stand, she will.
Weapon(s): None; Roxx might throw a beer bottle, but she has no skill with weaponary.
Armor: None; that shit's expensive.

Secondary Armor: N/A
Explanation for Points:
Strength: Astarte's frame is very small and willowy, thus a straight punch or kick from her would be like "being keeked by leetle girl"
Speed: Probably the only thing Astarte really has going for her, her high demonic nature allows her to move at a speed rather unnatural - sometimes a good... Running like a bitch is a good offense?
Stamina: Thanks to her small form, again, she has average stamina. Seems to be one place her demonic heritage fell through.
Weapon(s): A standard butcher knife, a little nicked. She keeps it sharp, though.
Armor: Just her dress, so... Nothing.

**Primary Armor: 0 His own natural bear hide.

Explanation for Points:
Strength: Being on the larger side of the scale for male polar bears, Aleksandr is extremely strong and knows how to throw his weight around correctly to hurt someone.

Speed: On the other hand, being a huge, lumbering polar bear has it's draw backs for speed. One could probably get in a one or two hits before being hit with one of Aleksandr's strikes.

Stamina: Bears are born to endure and fight for long periods of time. He's been fighting since he was a cub.

Weapon(s): His natural weapons, teeth and claws. Nothing special, they are made to maim and kill.

Armor: Just like his teeth and claws, there is nothing special about his bear hide. It's thick but nothing extraordinary.

Hit Points [30+(7xStamina)]: 44
*Primary Weapon(s): +2 Warhammer, horns.
Secondary Weapon(s): +1 Hooves.
**Primary Armor: +1 Murmillo gladiator armor.
Secondary Armor: 0

Explanation for Points:

Strength: Due to a lifetime of hard labor and gladiator fighting, Mank has developed higher than average muscle bulk that grants him a single point of strength. As a mythological giant, he also gains a supernatural boost to his physical strength and could easily crush a grown man's skull like a grape without any effort.

Speed: Average.

Stamina: Similar to strength, in his previous life to slavery he was a warlord. Having fought many battles, winning and losing, and then subjected to the life of a Roman gladiator, it has given him the ability to stay standing for longer, and take hit after hit without falling.

Weapons:
Primary Warhammer; lovingly named Beagan, which means 'small one' in Gaelic, it stands at around six and a half feet tall, the hammer itself around two foot long and a foot wide. It has a gouging spike at the back which is around two feet long, slightly curved and whetted to a razor sharp point. Horns can gore and even decapitate enemies should they manage to hit right, and even so and off-put attack can still result in nasty injuries.

Secondary His hooves are naturally made weapons, with a well placed kick he could shatter rib cages and skulls, and break limbs.

Armor:
Primary
To start off with, he wears a standard arming doublet on his chest to prevent the chainmaille from causing a rash or irritating the skin. It also prevents sweat from building up on the armor, to cause rust, or blisters against the affected area. On top of that, he has a full length chainmaille suit. It covers from his neck, down either arm to the wrists, and down each leg to the hooves. His does not provide a hood, and has a small gap at the small of his back for his tail. On top of that, he has a full set of plate armor. This includes a cod piece to protect his groin. His legs are covered with a cuisses and greaves, styled in a similar fashion to the prior referenced armor set. What he does not have are the sabatons, as the keratin of his hooves are enough to protect his feet. One of his pauldrons are slightly more decorated, with a cast iron head of a bull on the right shoulder, as a sort of clan marker.
He does not wear a standard knight's helmet, rather he wears what is called a Murmillo gladiator helmet. It is rather large and intimidating to look at, and weighs roughly around the same as the entire plate set itself. It has a long plume of horse hair dyed red across the crest at the top, rather than the decorative feather.

Hit Points [30+(7xStamina)]: 44
*Primary Weapon(s): +2 - ornate solid silver executioner's sword that he has fondly dubbed 'The Lobotomiser' (very sharp).
Secondary Weapon(s): 0
**Primary Armor: 0
Secondary Armor: 0
Explanation for Points:
Strength: Jux is huge. At two hundred and sixty pounds of muscle and standing close to seven feet tall, his entire being radiates strength. There was a lot of money to be made in the underground fighting rings in his home city, and in order to make it he had to be in peak physical condition. Being a physician also means he has access to substances that aid in the production of muscle building, such as steroids and cocaine.
Speed: The downside of all that muscle is a lack of any real agility, of course; if he ever chose to wear armour, this would decrease even further.
Stamina: With his sanity ebbing slowly away, his pain tolerance has skyrocketed; a devastating hit will cripple him, but he'll try and get to his feet every time, until unconsciousness takes hold. This reckless attitude, coupled with his physical size and condition, give him endurance.
Weapon(s): The sword he has chosen for combat is not designed to simply score skin, or even stab; its primary purpose is for attempted decapitation, or the rending of limbs. It is to be wielded with two hands, although its length is akin to that of a short-sword. It's quite a beautiful piece, when it is not stained with blood -- even if the religious carvings that adorn its surface seem somewhat misplaced, given its purpose.
Armor: Jux is already a big man; wearing armour would just slow him down further.

**Primary Armor: + 2

Explanation for Points:
Strength: Being not only a massive beast that stretched well over the nine foot mark, he has a demonic blood coursing through his monkey veins, which would amplify his strength far beyond the reach of any mortal.
Speed: Big and clunky, not to mention he has small legs in proportion to his body and arms which aren't good for dodging attacks. His armor also slows him down.
Stamina: A creature used to the feel of a blade embedded into his flesh, he has an incredible endurance gifted not only by long years of combat in his mortal days, but by his new demonic blood.
Weapon(s): Merely teeth, claws and horns.
Armor: Has a full set of Japanese, Samurai-styled armor that was fashioned in the flames of Hell and that covers the majority of his body, which is thick enough to easily deflect a poorly swung weapon; it also keeps his main organs extremely well protected.

Strength: For a decade, he has been working on a fishing boat that works out of the cold, northern oceans. The seas are tumultuous, and the cages of crabs and nets of fish are extraordinarily heavy. They are manually hoisted aboard by hand or with manual winches.
Speed: Average.

Secondary Weapon(s): 0 - N/A

**Primary Armor: 0 - N/A (stock clothing, with as much use as a Redshirt to Starfleet.)
Secondary Armor: 0 - N/A

Explanation for Points:

Strength - Decent skill in beast-handling, it serves to provide him with at least some semblance of strength.
Speed - As above; some fleet of foot is needed in disciplining wild creatures.
Stamina - For the purpose of realism, as he is a deity (albeit one that I stifle so greatly as to make it impossible to even tell, because I understand some people do not wish to involve themselves with magic or 'powers' or otherwise), it seems to fit that he would maintain some level of higher stamina. And again, he does a lot of 'animal' tending on his island estate.

Weapon(s) - His cane has been with him since the day he was created and is the only real weapon that he knows, and, as an anthropomorphic lion, his fangs and claws are a given.

Armor(s) - None to speak of! He just getting into all of this, and, as of yet, has not had armor crafted for protective purposes.

Hit Points [30+(7xStamina)]: 44
*Primary Weapon(s): +1 (Teeth; Claws, Green fire breath)

**Primary Armor: +1 (Plated scales, with the thickness and qualities of steel)

Explanation for Points:

Strength: Proverb is a powerful dragoness, toned,large, and mighty,when she punches you in the mouth you feel it all the way down to you toes. She was raised a warrior, in her long since disbanded clan, in the southern islands: she maintains rigorous training to this day.

Speed: Being as large as she is: Prover has an average speed-- while her muscles are well formed and toned, she is still too large to be light on her feet,or extremely dexterous in the arena. She moves-- but with no more speed than the average furre/human.

Stamina: Much like her brethren, she is built to last. She can keep coming after taking some pretty sever blows: as long as they are not fatal or cause too much blood loss. Her attitude plays into this where she often outright refuses to stay down, unless completely knocked unconscious. She has a large mature statue, which makes it hard for others to whittle her down quick enough.

Weapon(s): Proverb likes to make use of her wooden cane, that seems to be made out of something stronger than the wood she claims it to be made of. Not only that, but a 7'8" dragon often can make use of an unworldly bite force, as well as claws that render flesh as though it were cheese up against a grater.

Armor: She wears normal clothing, but has a natural defense of iron-hard scales that cover every inch of her body, other than her belly-- which is plated in soft segmented scale
9which is more like bare skin/flesh.)

*Primary Weapon(s): (+1) Relies heavily on short-range weapons, which leaves her more vulnerable for attack from long-range weapons. Uses primarily this, its range is about one-two feet MAX.

Secondary Weapon(s): (0) Fists. Because she is all and all a dirty fighter, she at times will prefer to use fists, claws, feet or teeth to attack. These are of course short-range and because she has no magical properties or enhanced strength in said things, there's no additional points.

**Primary Armor: (+1) A modification of this with less detail on the shoulders. Arms and legs are wrapped with leather, making them vulnerable to attack from bladed weapons. Thighs and upper arms are fully exposed. Torso and organs are most protected, but still vulnerable to heavy weapons. No resistance to magic.

Secondary Armor: (0) Flesh. At times she might wear leather wraps about chest, arms, thighs and calves as well as leather padding for ladyparts and all that.

Explanation for Points: (If this isn't filled out your stats won't be put into the system. Be specific for each aspects, we don't need the history of your character.)

Strength: She is a hardy woman, but not very built in terms of muscle. Can wield lighter weapons but will have difficulty wielding anything heavier than a small sword/defending herself against heavier weapons and attackers.

Speed: Species' natural agility and stealthiness plus due to the shorter quality of her blade and the fact that she uses fists must be able to get in and out of range fairly quickly. By no means is she incredibly fast, but lighter armor and weaponry allows for faster movement than someone with sturdier armor and weapons.

Stamina: Species' natural hardiness in terms of larger build and hunter's mindset, also the fact that she has had to train with men much larger and more muscley than she is and has taken many a punt to the ass. Will be worn down after some time moving about, and is weaker when forced to attempt long-range attacks.

Weapon(s): Sword is fairly sharp and gives her an additional space between her and her attacker of about a foot or so, but is not terribly heavy and therefore only does enough damage to be superior to a staff/whip/fists. It has no magical properties though is wielded with a capable hand and acts as an extension of her arm.

Armor: Armor protects organs to a higher than average degree (ie more than leather would), though can be dented in with heavier weapons. Arms and legs are fairly exposed, as is head (no helmet is used).

Strength: Tremendous and well fit, Blud is at the height of his physical prowess and is capable of feats of strength well beyond the average man
Speed: Being tremendous and bulky leaves him little in the way of speed to evade. Instead he often braces himself and simply counter-strikes, minimizing damage if possible
Stamina: Highly durable, his size allows for more blows to be taken and absorbed, as well as for anchoring to better take and counter attack direct hits.
Weapon(s): War hammer is of an extremely high quality, highly resilient, and effectively wielded. Teeth and maul axe serve as a side arm of sorts, should be find himself compromised.
Armor: The armor is very light and is more for deflecting glancing blows than any serious protection It also does not entirely cover his body, leaving some vulnerabilities along the limbs.

Explanation for Points: Strength - Physical fitness is incredibly important to the abaahy, both in their work - animal husbandry, manual labor, mining, etc. - and for more vain reasons. Wrestling has always been a popular sport among Yakuts and one the shaman has practiced since their childhood.

Speed - Mostly based in magic. Most times they reserve this energy, often moving slowly and clumsily, but when the need arises they can become surprisingly fast for their size.

Stamina - Not as well-practiced or honed as the above, but still fairly important for what most of their day consists of - see above - and above average.

Explanation:

Strength is around average and is nothing spectacular.

One part due to his species, and one part due to his lifestyle, he is a nimble and agile creature born from a swan's grace and a dancer's life. He is exceptionally more dexterous than most people, able to twist and move in manners that might be impossible for someone that is not as limber. His combat training also helps to take advantage of his speed, allowing him to perform fast attacks and quick out of the way rolls.

Since he took up his life as a traveller, he has been forced to fight against others in an effort to survive. It involved many beatings, and having to beat on others to keep himself alive, giving him more stamina that someone that has lived a decent and uneventful life. While he has been trained to fight, his albinism mutation prevents him from becoming as hardy as most others in his situation, due to his weaker constitution.

He wields dual daggers, which might not be as effective as most weapons put can easily sink into someone's ribs and create nasty gashes.

He wears no armor, only normal everyday clothing.

Furcadia Login: Maxwell Hamm
Profile: Once a freeman, this feline's fate has once more intertwined with the arena. The greatest difference from before is the pain in his eyes, the hint that perhaps this time his spirit might be breakable. He wears the tattered remains of what was once considered fashionable clothing, leaving bits of his dark, almost iridescent grey fur exposed. Despite the look in his eyes and the thick wooden chains that bound him, Maxwell "The Hammer" Hamm kept his head up, and was always looking for something that might distract him or make him truly smile. Periodically, bluish-white sparks would arc off his fur, particularly when he was animated or angry. His tail moved like an random arc of electricity behind him, sending sparks flying once in a while. He was slowly making a name for himself again, but this new arena brought with it new rules. Whenever he was to enter a bout, a special collar was placed on him, one that negated almost all of his powers. Despite this restriction, he remained a formidable foe.

**Primary Armor: 0

Explanation for Points:
Strength: He was a fighter in his youth and maintained his strength somewhat. In his youth he did not have the incredible speed that developed later, so he focused more on his strength.
Speed: As part of the experiment gone awry that gave him his electric powers (suppressed during fights), he gained an unnatural speed (his synapses and nerves operate much faster due to his electrical powers)
Stamina: Again, he was a fighter in his youth. He maintained some of his stamina as a result.
Weapon(s): He does not use a weapon per se, but relies on his fists and claws. However, if allowed, he would be able to put an electric charge behind a punch as a special effect.
Armor: Armor slows him down and encumbers him, so he generally goes without, relying on his speed and skill. (later, if permitted, he will have some natural armor as part of his experience points - essentially an outward force from his body that would lessen blows).

Explanation for Points:
Strength: Hegan is of dragon blood, which plays into his strength, Aside from that, he is well built and takes careful care of his form (if only to protect his ego).
Speed: Due to his armor and size, he isn't especially quick and tends towards average in speed.
Stamina: With the armor he wears, it's necessary for him to remain fit and maintain himself in the sense of not tiring and being able to power on through blows to him.
Weapon(s): He wields a bardiche. Because of it's length, he doesn't need to be close to land a blow. Because of the long, curved ax-like blade on the business end, he can do a good deal of damage.
Armor: Wears well-crafted, heavy armor over much of his body. It his designed for mobility as well as the ability to take on relatively heavy blows.
