~Smith
A Smith is a man or woman who makes weapons and tools out of metal. Generally swords, since they fetch the best price, but it is in no way limited to this. Making cannons and parts for inventors is also part of their business, and they also get good knowledge within metallurgy.

Position: Crewman

Physical Appearance


Height: 8 ft.
Weight: 300 lbs
Hair: Bastion's long waist length hair is normally tied back in a ponytail to keep it out of the way when working or fighting. For special occasions he will put it in a long braid instead. He also wears a short cropped beard, carefully trimmed.
Eyes: His eyes are like the ocean on a stormy day, Blue-Grey and turbulent.

Clothing/Accessories: Being a marine he does sport the normal uniform of white and blue, though he did throw in some extra pieces. The sleeves of his coat are rolled up to the elbow exposing some of his totally ripped arms (blacksmithing will do that to ya) with a set of Leather elbow pads and iron backed fingerless leather gloves. A large utility belt slung around his waste is packed with a multitude of various pockets and smithing tools, useful in any situation he might find himself in. Strapped over his Marine Issued pants are a couple of Leather Knee Pads followed by a nice sturdy Pair of Iron Toed Leather boots. (in case of dropping anvils on his toes, he curls them)

General Appearance: As a Smith Bastion is VERY well built, Arms and legs and chest rock hard with muscle, a Mountain of a man, sturdy, hard, and covered in hair. His skin is very darkly tanned and normally covered in soot or ash from working at the forge in his spare time. Various scars and burns mar his rough and calloused hands from the few mistakes made while forging in his early days at the craft. His eyes peer out from under two great bushy eyebrows, two deep furnaces of emotion. His long hair flows down his back as molten metal, a ponytail like a mold carefully keeping it check. His beard close cropped and carefully set like iron sand with a magnet. The Mountain walks, Long strides and a sure step, confident and unyielding, as one has to be when molding metal.

The Character


Personality:
Despite Bastions Rocky Unyielding Appearance he is actually very jolly. A Hearty Soul Ready and Willing to Share in a Good Joke and a fun evening. He can be Loud and Boisterous or Solemn and Thoughtful. He is very respectful and completely honest giving open and straightforward answers to any question asked of him.

Most of his spare time is spent either at his forge smithing all sorts of wondrous items, or at the practice yard, honing those mighty sword fighting skills. He often reads up the newest breakthroughs in the smithing industry and will sit for hours on end tinkering in his shop. When he is focused he tends to be very single minded and goal oriented, fixating on one task and one task only until it is complete or he is satisfied.

Bastion tends to have very little trouble finding new friends out in his travels as he is very easy to get a long with, as long as you abide by the law. He is quick to party though he rarely drinks alcohol. When he does he chooses to do so privately, believing that a man who drinks in public knowing he cant hold his liquor is just sharing his problem with others.

Bastion is fairly patient but can have a very Destructive Fiery temper, especially when roused by others doing harm to innocents. This of course means that he found great appeal in the marines and has joined eagerly, thus helping him further his goal of getting rid of the evil in the world.

He tends to be deep thinker and a frequent user of logic and common sense, throughout his life he has slowly put together his own outlook on the world. You fold and work metal to improve its Strength and remove impurities. To him this is a basic fact, by removing the impurities in the world you make it stronger. Another basic fact is that there ISNT such a thing as perfectly pure metal, all people are flawed and must work to overcome their shortcomings. This has brought him to a delicate balance on how he views the world.

Morally good, Bastion believes that everyone should follow the law, but the Marine's "Absolute Justice" is a little extreme and in his opinion should only be applicable to the evilest of beings.

Hometown: Shimotsuki Village, East Blue
History:
An Island inhabited by Swordsmen is no Stranger to a Blacksmith, nor is it a stranger to death. His mother falling to child birth and his father to the sword, Bastion was an orphan. He Wandered the streets as a young child moving from one warm place to the next. One night there was a great storm, torrents of rain, hurricane force winds, and biting cold. All of Bastion's normally warm spots no longer kept the chill from his bones.

He stumbled numbly through the night, on and on through the black emptiness that was his exile from civilization. Then he saw it, a red glow in the distance. Bleary eyed and exhausted he moved forward. The glow grew brighter and brighter and as he grew nearer he noticed something else. The chill was leaving him, something was chasing it away...

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

The soft red glow pulsed, it was getting brighter. The cold was fleeing from that sound

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

The glow pulsed, brighter, brighter, brighter. Heat, Heat drove the cold from his body, he stumbled forward tripping over something, he lay where he fell, basked in this red blazing light. The floor trembled...

*Thud* *Thud* *Thud*

A new noise... He felt his body being lifted, a large blurry shadow was wavering in the light. A deep voice echoed in his mind as he fell into unconsciousness, "What have we here!" "Some Fresh New Metal to Shape!" The red glow the forge, the voice his master. Bastion awoke next morning

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

The sound of metal on metal, the sound of his heartbeat. Tucked in a warm bed, in clean clothes he had found a new home. He stayed in that house with the smith, everyday following the sound to his new life. The life of a Blacksmith.

His Master taught him everything, how to heat and shape metal. What tools you needed and how to use them. How to find and identify precious metals. How to use his creations. Day after day they went over these skills, Smithing in the morning, creating weapons beautiful and deadly. Then swordplay in the evening, Balancing creation with destruction.

Bastion grew quickly, his body shaped by his training. Muscle from the forge, precision from the hammer, Dexterity from the sword. A quick eye and deep thoughts fused with hard work and determination, the old smith had reshaped him well.

Bastion soon took over most of the work in the blacksmith's shop leaving all the master crafting to his more experienced master. Satisfying common orders he began to make his own living as a respectable tradesman. He could not thank his master enough for the gift of this wonderful life. The master, always kind said that he had one more thing to do for him.

By this time Bastion had become a man, a man in his prime. Tall, powerful, and surprisingly wise for one who had seen so few season. A skilled swordsman and master craftsman. The old smith beckoned him over to the bench in their shop. "It is time you had your own tools" he said, stooping low over the forge.

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

One last time, His master forged for him. The result a beautiful sword... Much larger than most he had seen. A great two handed monstrosity for a great mountain of a man. As the metal cooled and the smith put the final touches to the blade Bastion rose and joined his master. There on the metal these words were written "All things can be Re-forged". The old smith then reached up and took down a very old very worn smiths hammer from a peg on the wall. "This was my master's and now, it belongs to you"

Taking both these wonderful gifts Bastion went on and started his own business. The hammer and sword mounted on his wall. A reminder of a man and his forge.

One day a Swordsman came to the old smith demanding he make him a new sword. The one he wore was supposed to be unbeatable but it had failed him. The smith took the sword and examined it. Finding nothing wrong with the blade he offered to take a look at the mans swordsmanship to see if he could help. The Man grew angry and accused the old man of insulting him. the man took up his sword and ran the old man through. The Man Ran...

Bastion visited his master for tea at the end of every week and told him how his new life was going. This week was no different, he set out for his master's house. Upon entering and Finding the broken body of his Master spread out on the floor something inside him snapped. Bastion went out looking for the swordsman, he would find this murderer.

He was the forge, a burning fire. He was the anvil, Hard and unyielding. He was the Hammer, an Instrument of change. He finally tracked down the swordsman who was attempting to flee, and using the very sword his master had forged for him, he avenged the old smith's death. Looking down at the words engraved on the wondrous weapon he wept. "All things can be reforged" but not everything can be replaced.

Bastion now he seeks to reforge his Life. He will spread the heat of his fire to all the cold places of the world and shelter us all from the storm. He is Bastion Stormgate, and he will make sure that noone cuts down another innocent.

Abilities and Possessions


Combat: Bastion Fights Head On and will not stand by if someone is in danger. Using his extensive training he chooses to fight with the sword his master forged for him. He also has a hidden boot knife just in case he is disarmed or captured. If neither of these are at hand he wont hesitate to use his great strength to break his foes with his bare hands or anything he can pick up.(even if its another bad guy) He generally is calm and unafraid in a fight but if you get him angry he goes into an uncontrollable rage and will not stop fighting until he is unable to move or is restrained.
Weaponry: Large Iron Great Sword Strapped to his back: Blad 4.5 ft Handle 1 ft. Concealed Boot Knife blade 7in. handle 5inch. Both Iron.
Items:
Saint Drunk's Bourbon Hunting Bottle:
A magical bottle of bourbon with a very fancy shape that makes it look expensive. Tastes just like regular bourbon and aside from the label having some guy that looks a lot like Egoraptor on it, there is no real defining weird thing about it. However once per sl, any character drinking from this will get drunk off their ass no matter the quantity they drank. No exceptions, even Zoro and Nami would get drunk off this stuff. The drunken spree lasts at least for 4 posts. The bottle magically manages to refill itself between sl's.
