He has shoulder length greasy black hair which covers his face most of the time and a thick covering of stubble on his face. His brown eyes look sore and red, having shed many tears and been vigorously rubbed, yet have a fierce look coming from them. Dressed like a slave, his clothes are dirty with frayed edges and many tears. His wears a single short sleeved garment from neck to knee which was originally white, but is now a light brown. It is loose and tied together by a leather belt around his waist. On his feet are sandals which have straps which reach his upper shin. His skin is hairy with much dirt stuck in it like he hasn’t washed for weeks, making his complexion appear even darker than it is. Though he looks fierce and towers over most people, he still has the innocent look of youth about him. He looks like he has had a hard and abusive childhood.

Personality: Mordecai will quickly begin a fight himself or if triggered to fight by someone getting in his way. He wants to vent his anger. Though he keeps much to himself and has only ever spoken one word, he seems irritable and easily angered at this stage of his life. He is assumed to be mute and stupid by those who know of him, but he in fact is rather intelligent. Because of his childhood he has never liked anything, except martial arts. His life was consumed with a hatred for his father and thoughts of how to fulfil that hatred, by either killing himself or his father. Though many thoughts abused him, he was and still is too proud for suicide.

He agrees with the teachings of Christianity however does not follow them or worship God. He believes in God, yet believes full well, he will get to hell and not heaven. Yet he amuses himself with the thought of his father forever being tormented in hell and him watching it. Because of his muteness he was never educated or even taken outside of the house and therefore spent most of his days locked away within his room. He kept himself from insanity however through imagining stories, stories of him being in another place, however this has made him a loner who doesn’t respond to other people and never had any friends. He had no pets and knows not friendship or companionship. He will ignore people and only interact through fighting.

Biography: Mordecai was born as an only child into a small trading village on a coastline of Europe. His father worked as a blacksmith and his mother as a housewife. His birth was never made known to authorities. They were an abusive couple, always arguing and that is why his mother disappeared and was never found again when he was 6. What really happened is she committed suicide why burning herself to ashes in her husband’s blacksmith shed. She cared not for her husband or child.

The abusive father was left to raise Mordecai and for the most of the time he simply left the child in his room, not caring for him at all. Mordecai was forced to feed and care for himself and could not receive an education. He had never to this date spoken a word, yet his father cared neither way. He was still however a vey intellectual boy, entertaining himself by creating stories in his mind of a better life.

When he was 10, his father begun to take notice of him, however it was by abusing and beating the boy. His father became a heavy drinker at this time which worsened his temper. During his sober times he made Mordecai his slave, doing all the cleaning, cooking and other tasks, however the abuse continued. He had many thoughts of suicide or of killing his father... but he resisted for the time being. Though ending his father's life became his goal.

At age 12, Mordecai would leave the house in the evening and go to the local martial arts centre where he was trained. He stole money from his father to pay for these lessons. His father did not care what he did, as long as Mordecai did all the duties. When he noticed money to be disappearing he beat his son more, yet never told him off, or attempted to prevent him. Mordecai never fought back against his father.

At 17 Mordecai had reached the highest possible martial arts level as the best student his teacher had ever had. He was nicknamed the ‘Mute Mauler’ as he was brutal in fights and befriended no one. His graduation fee for this martial arts school was rather large, and he again stole it from his father. When his father discovered this, Mordecai was beaten more severely than ever before and could do nothing but lay in bed for days... rarely even sneaking out for food whilst his father slept. Once recovered Mordecai stayed in bed for a few more days. He was left alone by his father who may have presumed him dead. He decided now to put his plan into action.

When his father was doing his blacksmith work one day he entered his shed, to the fathers complete surprise. Softly Mordecai said, ‘Dad’, his only word to date. Surprised his father begun to turn around... Mordecai then beat his father severely with his martial arts skills. His father collapsed and could not stand up. Seeing two matching blades on the wall skilfully crafted by his father, Mordecai grabbed them and viciously stabbed his father multiple times then kicked him into the blacksmiths fire to burn.

Mordecai immediately left his house that night carrying the two matching blades. To flee the memories of his childhoods. He snuck onto a food ship’s storage compartment leaving for an unknown location. It was a long travel, but he survived off the supplies. Once landed at the unknown location he snuck off the ship and crept into the night. Though his father is dead, he still feels great anger and seeks ways to unleash it, even in killing those who have done nothing to him. He will not kill someone who does not fight though. This now leaves him in a position to lead into his first battle.
