Description:

 

Nobody knows where or when exactly Blake was born; all that is known is that he is not of the planet Lelund’s common races, nor is he a Terran of any sort, making him a listed Lelunder, but of especially alien form.  He does not share his first name, preferring to keep it a secret.  When forced to hand one out, it is thought that he could be giving anyone any name, real or unreal.

Blake is a tower and a machine built for destruction.  His training from a very young age (due to his obvious natural size which showed immediately) has made him into a certified killing machine.  At seven feet tall and weighing something close to 500 pounds (most of it pure, hard muscle) he simply looks frightening.  His skin is golden in tone and distinctly shiny (unlike most Lelunders skin).  Although his face appears weathered and battle beaten with a thick, messy mop of blackish hair, no one would think to call him an ‘old timer’.  Almost always coated in his impressive General’s armour including his outstanding, black knight’s full helmet, Blake hides any real details of his somewhat alien body and form from the common eye. 

His eyes are said to glow a brighter shade of red when he is angered, although this report has never been scientifically tested. 

The only other descriptive aid on Sir Blake is that of his weapon of common choice; his battle sword.  It is an immense, heavy double blade, a cutting sort with a serrated edge on one side near the base.  The blade is rumoured to measure a metric metre, a scary thought. The hilt is black with a blue stone sunk into the base of the handle, and the actual blade (thought to be strong steel) is golden.

 

 

Skills:

 

Where to start?  Blake has dominated the Blue Lands military scene ever since arriving upon it.  Few would even challenge a foe his size.  Frighteningly quick for such a monster of a being, he has won contests in almost everything down his long years of service.  His specialties seem to be sword and hand to hand combat though, as well as battle command on the field.

Blake does not fear modern technology, but embraces it, though he still prefers to keep his sword handy in case anyone or anything needs to die a horrible, torturous death.

Blake’s success is usually noted as being because he is machine-like; his Masters could literally give him a target or a military aim and sit back, watching it done with brutal accuracy.  Swift yet wise, and unwilling to yield to any man, Blake would lead the charge and survive unlike many of his fellow Generals and Captains, making him one of the most experienced members of the military nation.

His ability to plan and to act with speed but intelligence was and is renowned.

Blake has no known weaknesses save one; he drinks and is quite active with females.  Although this has not yet caused him any particular concerns, it is a potential gateway for disaster, should any wily opponent choose to use it.
