Name: Rekkan Basca
Birthday: 7th
Nation of Birth: Air
Gender: Male
Age: Twenty-three
Element: Air
Appearance [/i]
Appearance: Rekkan is a 5,7 feet tall young man. One could say that he holds the physical attributes of a regular body worker, for he is concerned about the various aspects of his body and tends to be very healthy, always being careful with what he eats in order to maintain a good form. However, that does not mean that he has an athletic build. His body is quite average, with the muscles not being perfectly toned. Actually, he prefers to train agility rather than actual strength. He doesn't weight much, around 140.8 pounds.
One could describe Rekkan as a hermit, specially for his hair and face. His hair is very long and messy, actually reaching the length of his entire back. The air bender usually ties his hair with a black ribbon and a bandanna of the same color to prevent some of the hair from covering his eyes. However, he has no intentions on getting a haircut. It may be a matter of pride or some sort.
Rekkan's face is rough and quite simple. He possesses a sturdy nose and has an oddly long tongue. His eyes are dark brown, the color of his hair, and seem to be half shut most of the times. The man's cheeks are flat and his chin is quite simple. His skin is white, although the hottest of summers can tan it a little bit. He is also scarred on the backs and chest, including a scar that follows from the left side of his forehead down to his left cheek and over the eye.
Clothing: Rekkan decides to wear very casual attires for his day to day life. Some pants, a shirt with long sleeves and a leather belt are enough to keep him decent. Regularly seen with a backpack on his backs due to his travelling, the young man carries his supplies and a long coat to shield him from the cold from times to times.
An important note is the leather bracelet he wears on his left wrist, a gift from his deceased mother.
Weapon of Choice: Chinese Shortsword.
Bending Abilities: As an Air Bender, Rekkan is able to do what most Air Benders of his age can do. The ability to bend air at small scales may not be intimidating in battle, but for someone like Rekkan, that is not a problem, especially when he is one that engages in close combat and is proud on specializing air bending on the palm of his feet and hands. His maneoverability and speed increase significantly when this happens. The increase on these two attributes proves to be vital when he wants to approach an enemy quickly to engage in hand-to-hand or swordplay combat.
Inner Glance [/i]
Personality: An intuitive living being that lives life by the moment, Rekkan believes he is capable of using both his intellect and instinct in order to surpass obstacles that stand in his path. With that said, Rekkan is well-versed in the theory and practice of various combat tactics, from individual to team strategies as well. He has a keen eye for warfare and derivated topics of the sort, with a smooth sense of what it means to be a warrior. The experience he gained is proof that he is indeed what he believes to be: a cunning and able tactician.
Past his battling attributes and into his social skills, Rekkan could and is described as a rather strange person. He remains comfortable around people, preferrably women, but one cannot say the same thing about those around him. It's true that he has a weird way of seeing the world and tends to philosophize about it, but some just can't understand his point of view and shut down from him. Needless to say that, for that simple reason alone, Rekkan is not one that possesses a big circle of friends. He has everything to be extremely extroverted, but one singularity, that of his oddness, ruins everything.
Another trait of this particular air bender is his ability to remain cold in stressful situations. Both the way he was raised and that which he made his life made him qualified for dangerous missions that require a cool head and the necessary tranquility to perform them.
But we all have our flaws and Rekkan is no different. He can become angry and bestial when his pride is injured, mainly if one teases his background. Those who mock Rekkan's family and those that are his closest friends will have quite a problem in their hand as the young air bender enters a state of rage of bloodlust.
Fear(s): Living without purpose; Fire Element
Hobbies: Writing and Travelling
History [/i]
History: Born in a family of four, including himself, Rekkan lived a monotonous childhood like any other child in the Northern Temple. The lack of time the youngling spent with his family proved to be frustrating to him, as he was very attached to his mother. Thinking of the temple as a complete waste of time and with an increasing desire of being with his parents, Rekkan made the first big decision of his life: flee from the temple.
One could say that the Northern Air Temple should have better security, especially when it has a fourteen year old sneaking out of its facilities. However, it would not be at the first try that Rekkan managed to escape. Two long years needed to pass before the teenager attempted the same mission and finally succeeded.
Once out, Rekkan devoted live to family. He received the news that his father had died months prior to his escape from the temple, and things got complicated at home. Because of that, the teenager decided to work as a merchant in order to sustain his family. Little did he know that after another two years, his mother and sister would die from a... bandit attack.
So, because of these events, Rekkan became a wanderer, travelling from nation to nation until the war started. Then, he decided to stay away from the major battles and try to continue on with his own business.
