Personal Information:

Born the way that most half-orc children are born, Boamir was one of the lucky few not to be tossed aside by his victimized mother, due to the fact that when he was born his Orcish features somehow managed to be a recessive gene. Raised in a somewhat normal environment, he was taught to respect education and knowledge and taught in the ways of the human world. Unfortunately while his Orcish side had remained on a dormant path, it would slowly begin to rise as he grew older and older.

His upper fangs grew, his skin darkened, and his eyes yellowed away from their original green color. Once off to higher schooling he would fall onto hard times as his slow transition to his other lineage would haunt his mother with memories, leading to them drifting apart. He also began to experience the natural hunger for confrontation and battle that Orcs are forever known for, getting into fights with anyone who disrespected him or the things he enjoyed.

This descent into anger and orc-life would lead Boa to be thrown out of school, but in a way this was a sort of freedom as he would be forced to take up the blade and fight in order to make his living. Years of bloodshed and anger expression followed, until one day Boa had a revelation when he encountered a colleague of a king who had hired his mercenary band, Jon Colossus. Conversing and divulging with the professor led Boa reach back up for a life somewhere towards the middle, so he may satisfy both his hunger for violence and his thirst for knowledge.

Pit-fighting was a violent but non-lethal way for Boa to unleash his rage, at least for him since others could kill their foes when he chose only to brutalize them. He works also a blade for hire, working mercenary and body-guard jobs for many different sorts of people. His previous studies have also allowed him to learn the language of Elven, much to the chagrin of the race's prouder people.

Boa currently is a cool-headed person who has learned to control his natural brutality to an extent. He is quiet when alone and tends to read whatever he can find that interests him. He is indifferent to other races but dislikes elves for their pretentiousness, confronting them when they speak bad of anyone and try of hide it behind their tongue. But he does not dislike all elves has he is best friends with a draconian half-elf by the name of Magma, who often gets on his nerves with his gung-ho attitude and impulsiveness.

Boa wields the Nero and Aeneas, a pair of one-handed war axes that he dual wields as a pair, their unusually large blades providing a good defense when used correctly. He can wield them both normally and in backhand style for stabbing and swiping attacks. Boa channels his anger into a deadly rage whenever it is required, and can manipulate his body to have super-powerful capabilities for a short time, though overuse will exhaust him.

Boa yearns to reconcile with his mother and return to his studies, mesmerized by the idea of magic but unable to perform it himself on a decent scale. He also hopes to return to Colossus and learn more of and from him.
