i am interested in what everyone thinks of him. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Background:

Mathius Tamron was the general of his king’s army. Backed into a valley with one escape route he was forced to make a last stand against the neighboring kingdom’s army. They charged valiantly with Mathius at the lead. The opposing general, Ferra Nightheart readied her crossbow and drove a arrow into his heart. He lay dieing at the feet of his soldiers who without a leader were mercilessly slaughtered down to the last man.

Many call it coincidence, others call it destiny. For whatever reason a dragon had watched the battle with interest. It saw Mathius’ will to live, his plight. Through arcane powers forgotten by man it gave life to him. Mathius clearly understood he was being given a second chance. Through the dragon he could gain ultimate power and one day exact justice upon his murderer. Infected with a lust for his new found power he went out into the world. This time he served no man but himself, and was willing to kill anyone who thought otherwise.

Description:

Mathius Tamron took time to make himself look the part of a dragon shaman. He wears armor made from the shed scales of his totem dragon. This armor covers his legs, feet and shoulders. A single piece of chain mail is hung over his left breast to protect his heart from arrows. His arms and chest are covered in tattoos of dragons swirling around his arms and torso.

He wields an ancient great sword that was part of his totem dragon’s treasure horde. The hilt looks like the head of a dragon, gem eyes and diamond teeth. The blade is etched with markings that look like a gout of fire.

The most perplexing part of his appearance is his shadow. In his shadow the arrow that felled him is still visible even after its removal when he was revived. Many people have mistaken him for a vampire or a demon because of it.

I feel like I don't know anything about this guy. I know he died, and I know he came back, and I know his class, but beyond that... what?

Oh i forgot to add something. becuase of the manner in which he was brought back his memeory is fragmented. he can remember bits and peices but they are distraught and seemingly random. Part of his objective is to remember his past.

some roleplaying ideas come to mind when i read your character bio

first perhaps the dragon who saved the character has taken him in and acts as a mentor and give guidence and advice. this would also explain how he got his armor and weapon. he also could have trained your character in the ways of a shaman. this would go along with the memory loss he experiances.

it's in my opinion that mathius needs some more work. his goal seems to be kill the woman who slew him. in your bio it seems as if he's almost evil and has no morals or values. but yet you also express a desire to piece together his forgotten past.

a good fix could be that Mathius remebers his killers face but does not know why. Mathius' aperance could also have changed and when he sees his killer he falls in with her.

he adventures with Ferra for a time and starts to learn more about his past and about the woman who slew him.

a cool character roleplay moment could come when Mathius remembers what Ferra did to him and is forced to chose how to go on after having learned the true Ferra ( and possibly fallen in love with her).

that's just my take on it.
