description:;[/b][/color]
Standing at approximately six feet and four inches tall, Richard could be considered taller than the average humanoid. His "Bones" could be considered a color somewhere between a pearl and creamy white, with a few pale spots marking breaks or past conflicts. The interiors of his eye sockets, if they could be called that, have a more-or-less even smokey gray color. His posture is straight, though when he walks his body has a weary look to it, as he hunches forward slightly and keeps his hands in his pockets. His voice carries a faint British accent with it when he speaks, and he covers his mouth with a hand when he does.

background:;[/b][/color]
Richard came to be on the island of England, in 1921. He was "Born" in the countryside away from a city, in an abandoned barn. There he was raised, and his parents imparted what knowledge they could to him before they both passed. When Richard reached the age of 18 and a half, the barn that he had spent his childhood in was caught in a fire, and he was forced to take what he could and flee. Now with only what his father had left him as far as clothes and items go, Richard snuck through a small town in the night to take what he could. After he had broken into the town's clinic for some bandages to wrap himself in, he was again forced to flee. This time by the clinic's owner, who called the police shortly after Richard had broken in.
Some time after Richard had managed to settle in to a quiet, albeit uneasy lifestyle in a shabby complex of run down apartments, World War Two began. It was then that Richard first encountered a need for his inherent ability to sense danger, which he used to evade falling bombs, and rubble through the city under siege. It was also at this time that Richard obtained his Webley. He picked it up off of a police man who had gotten half-trapped by the falling rubble of a building. Rich managed the keep himself alive throughout the six years that the conflict went on, and he kept himself well-fed with the bodies of the unfortunate people that had died in the streets, or their own homes via German air raids. A short time after the war had ended, Richard left the city to travel, and keep out of the way of anyone who might have been looking for him when the war ended.
During his travels, Richard did what he had to do in order to survive, though he tended (And still tends) to try and stay on the side of the law, as it makes it easier to move around in when you aren't wanted. Richard also picked up a few languages along the way through areas like Russia, China, and France. He lived in the wilderness for the most part, only stopping by very small settlements occasionally to pick up some ammunition for his Webley, or some supplies. He sometimes trades or exchanges a few books while he barters for supplies, which he reads as he travels, and then trades in with the next supply run. As of yet, his experiences with other members of the supernatural beings are none that he knows of save for his parents, and he is unsure of what the results of such a meeting would be if it were to occur.

Of all the deities that his parents taught him of, none impressed on him so much as Varos Talantos, upon who's scales the world is balanced. He holds firm to the belief that everything will balance itself out eventually.
