A 6'7" 200 lb man fighting with a short sword and arming glove...that's something you don't see every day. Hardly the most visually intimidating combination...:-)

True.. He's not a duelist, after all.. Imagine him, instead, in this context...
You're a criminal, on the run and hiding in the city. You've noticed the tall man who appears to be following you, so you quickly duck into an alleyway, hoping he didn't see you. Unfortunately, as you're catching your breath, the end of the alleyway is suddenly blocked by this large man.. and the quarters are a little too close for you to use your longsword with any efficiency... and he's drawing a shortsword.

I liked the uniqueness of it. Thats a great reason too...very utilitarian...no flash. You should include that in the description.

Your charater is pretty cool, Rob, PM me the numbers.
Of course, the ones I
really
want to send in are "Garabond" and maybe "Flaxil."
I think you understand... hey, why are you laughing so hard?

I hope it isn't too late to put these up, but even if it is, I'm sure everyone will enjoy looking at these characters.
_____________________________________________________________
Garabond
History: Garabond is a member of the same celtic raider clan as Lyrax and Flaxil. He isn't one of the more successful raiders, unfortunately for him, but he is one of the more successful ladies' men. This never earned him a good standing with the other raiders, but Garabond never cared enough about money to even try. He left Angharad with Flaxil, and has since met several noblewomen. The most remarkable of these is the Baroness Christine, who at least equals Garabond in social ability as well as beauty. Garabond has also taken over some land and rules it under Flaxil, but only so long as it pleases the Emperor Uglub. So far, he has done well, and the casinos he is building should generate a decent amount of tax income for Gelure.
