Attire: Siegmund's normal clothing consists of a sleeveless dark shirt, long gray trousers that are tucked into dark leather boots. These boots are slim and reach about midway up his shins. A white belt encircles his waist with a silvery wolf head as a buckle. A long coat, about knee's length, is worn over top. It's a light color, grayish mostly, lined along the edges in red. A leather baldric is worn over his right shoulder of the coat and loops down to his left hip. A wide sheath is attached to it and rests upon his back, where his bow can be stored and his quiver is too.
Abnormalities: A mark of a slave was branded onto his right shoulder, depicting a folded wing. Numerous scars riddle his body, mostly on his back from whippings. As for his animalistic traits, tufts of hair grow off of his humanly ears along the back ridges and reach diagonally upwards along his head, making them similar to an animal's pointy ears. His canines are slightly longer, not to mention sharper. His pupils are slitted and his eyes seem to glow unnaturally in the darkness, though it may just be light reflection. Seig's fingernails are also grown an inch past his fingertips and has a slightly pointed tip that curves down just barely, resembling claws. Finally, a slim bushy tail extends from the his lower back and hangs behind him.

Siegmund was born and raised on a small island in the South Blue. It was insignificant, mostly unmapped by most and inhabited solely by Beast Folk. Those that did know of it were various merchant vessels but they stayed away in fear of being attacked by the wildlife. It was a small tribe that he lived with but they had fierce warriors that served as protectors. Sieg's father was one such man, a fearsome wolf more beast than human but was still bipedal and retained sentience. His mother was also of the wolfish descent, those she looked more human than the rest of the tribe. Nonetheless, she was of the beast folk and allowed to live there.

Siegmund was born as an only child. He grew up under his father's wing, learning how to use what natural abilities he inherited and taught how to hunt and eventually kill. If his father was disappointed that he took after his mother in terms of appearance, he never showed it. Though young Sieg had his father's ferociousness and capacity for violence. That was enough to sate his pride and pass on his knowledge to the young pup. Even though he had a few physical traits that would assist him in hunting, he was trained with a weapon so he could do more. He preferred a bow over other weapons but devised a way to incorporate a bow and a sword. The years he had growing up were good, he learned much and would relish those times. Unfortunately for him, those would be the only good memories he had...

One night, their tribe was raided by humans. Somehow a band of pirates caught wind of their settlement and came in force to pillage them. They weren't expecting the fierce beasts that served as guardians and lost many men because of it. However, they had numbers and superior weaponry, and soon quelled the beast folk. Most of them were killed on the spot, namely Sieg's father and the rest of the adult males. The elders were also killed off, as their advanced age would offer nothing. Then the females, both young and mature were separated from the younger males and carted away. Sieg was amongst the half a dozen males to survive and were forced into slavery.

Needless to say, Sieg had to work hard if he wanted to live. Taken from the island, he and the others were chained and kept under supervision as they performed daily tasks for their masters. He tried many times to escape and was flogged for it. If he resisted any orders, he was whipped. If he tried to attack them, he was starved. The other slaves had slowly given in, because they saw what resisting did. Not Sieg though, no, he fought back at every chance he got. It didn't do any good and he was slowly losing the will to fight. His father was dead, his mother gone and his fellow kind wouldn't help him. While doing what his cruel taskmasters ordered, they became lax in their guard and soon sold him to another group of pirates.

It was with this new group that he remained tame until they lowered their guard. Unlike a certain other group that used bomb collars to keep their slaves in line, lesser pirates without the beli couldn't afford it and resorted to beating their slaves into submission. In a burst of clarity one night, Sieg came upon his captors and slaughtered the lot of them in their sleep. It was after the fact that he realized he made a mistake, that he was left alone to man their small ship in the middle of the ocean. He didn't know where he was going and only knew the basics of sailing the ship, as that's what they made him do. So he was left to drift at sea, slowly depleting the on-board supplies.

Eventually, Sieg was found by a patrolling Marine ship. They captured him, thinking him to be a pirate and locked him in the brig. It was only after hours upon hours of questioning that he finally got it across that he was a self-proclaimed freed slave. That he killed those pirates to free himself. They couldn't fault him for doing what he needed to do, but they left him in a cell until they could figure out what to do with him. Once the ship docked at an island, Sieg didn't know where, he was released from their custody as long as he didn't cause any trouble. Alas, there wasn't much he could do. Some people were afraid of him, a dirty, lanky beast-man trudging through their peaceful town. He didn't stay for long, bartering his way off the island with a merchant vessel. He went under the pretense of a mercenary, that could offer protection. When they didn't believe him, he disarmed and defeated three of their initial guards. Moderately impressed, he was allowed on.

It was traveling with that group that Sieg regained what he lost as a slave. Eating right and exercising rejuvenated his weakened muscles. He was able to fill his form out and actually look fearsome when the situation called for it. At first they wanted to spar with him on a daily basis but it took more than one to have a chance of beating him. Soon enough they gave that up as Sieg didn't understand the concept of a friendly fight. When he fought, he went for the kill. The injuries were too much for them, even though they knew he didn't get it, so instead tried teaching him about weapons. He didn't like guns, as they always brought up dark nightmares about how his life had suddenly changed. Sieg instead took up a bow again and impressed them with his skill. It got to the point that if he had a bow and the other guy had a gun, it was an even fight.

It was until later, after he parted from them that he decided to take up the life of a bounty hunter. At first it was rather easy, as petty criminals had nothing on him and his talents, both innate and trained. He revived the idea of combining and bow with a sword, just to make his weapon appear more terrifying, as it was unorthodox. Only after he was serious in using it like that did it actually become a more dangerous weapon. It would take all he had and more to hunt down the pirates that enslaved him. Until then, he would hone his skills and capture, or kill, any pirate he came across. They were obviously a scourge upon the seas. They couldn't be allowed to do as they pleased. They would soon meet their fate at the end of hi arrow...

[attr="class","weapon"]

• ⚔ "Blood Hunter" - Sieg's primary weapon, combining the long ranged nature of a bow and the close ranged capabilities of a sword. Classified as a bowblade, this weapon dubbed Blood Hunter by himself is approximately four feet in length, with six five-inch metal plates riveted along it at every three inch interval. These plates were folded perfectly, then sharpened, to be capable of cutting and slashing. The six plates are evenly places along the curves of the bow, leaving enough space in the center for arrows to be nocked and fired rapidly.]
  
  - Quiver - Sieg normally carries three kinds of arrows, wooden with light metal tips, metallic ones with jagged metal tips and bone arrows. The wooden arrows allow for faster shots, as they are lighter but don't hit too hard. They are still deadly if hit in a soft spot like the neck, eyes, stomach and so forth. However, compared to the metal arrows, they are inferior. The second type doesn't fly as fast, still faster than something that could be thrown and isn't easily avoided unless the shot is known. Being slightly heavier, these arrows will hit harder and the jagged arrowheads will tear through and can get lodged in the body, making removal difficult.
  
  The bone arrows are carved from the bones of the dead. Whether they are made from humans or creatures is unknown to all but Sieg himself. These arrows are thinner than the previous two, slightly heavier than wood but quite strong and are intended to be shot so to squeeze through the slits of a human ribcage and  pierce a vital organ. He only has a handful of these on him, maybe only one or two at a time.
• ⚔ Throwing knives - Sometimes the bow is too much or he's in a position where he can't use it. Having a dozen or so small knives used for throwing can come in handing. Utilizing his sharpened accuracy through wielding his bowblade, chucking weighted knives isn't too hard of a concept. Each knife is about four inches, mostly a slim blade with enough of area to hold and throw. They could be used in close quarters too but more often than not, using his arrows work better.
  
• ⚔ Sword breaker - This weapon is a short sword, a hilt long enough to accommodate one hand and a short blade blade that can stab well enough. Along one edge are a series of notches used to catch swords to parry them. Twisting just right after catching a sword can apply pressure that can break most swords, unless they are masterfully crafted or made of superior materials, otherwise it could likely disarm the individual or just lock their blade in place to make freeing it difficult. The other edge is nice and sharp and can be used like a normal sword.
  

[attr="class","nonwea"]

• ★ Pocketwatch - A dull metal watch with a slim chain. The protective lens on the inside is cracked and the metal covering is battered but it still tells time. He pilfered it from the pirates he killed to free himself.
  
• ★ Sling Bag - A single-strap leather bag that's used to carry various things. It fits easily over over him and the bag rests upon his back, usually next to his bow and quiver. It carries his spare water, food rations, bounty documents, his identification papers and an assortment of other miscellaneous stuff.
  
• ★ Bedroll - A blanket rolled up with a small pillow wrapped in a cloak. It's secured by a rope and carried in a canvas bag, to protect it from the natural elements like rain. It's usually attached to his sling bag if not stowed away elsewhere.
  

[attr="class","ability"]

• ▶ Bowbladery - To match his unique weapon, Sieg has a unique fighting style that incorporates both aspects of his weapon, Blood Hunter. He prefers to stay at a distance and snipe his targets with precise shots. He's proficient with the use of a bow and can fire off a handful of arrows in only a few seconds. Should the target(s) get closer, he can abandon the idea of shooting them and instead lash out with his bladed bow, slashing them to pieces.
  
  This style of fighting values accuracy and agility over strength and whatever else melee enthusiasts have. More likely than not, Sieg will be found dancing and jumping around his enemy while shredding them to ribbons with his bowblade. Though not a part of the style, his arrows can be used to stab and immobilize foes without having to shoot them, if they happen to come close enough.
  
• ▶ Enhanced Agility - From training in the art of the bowblade and continuously utilizing his inner predator, Sieg has built up his natural speed and reflexes to higher than that of a human's. He can move much faster, attack faster and physically react quicker. This helps greatly with his bow, so he can fire off a swarm of arrows in little time. With his coordination and precision, that which is called parkour can be done by him to an extent. He'll mostly run up a vertical surface to avoid something or use such tactics to achieve higher grounds for a field advantage.
  

[attr="class","racial"]

• ▷ Heightened Senses - As a beast folk, Sieg's senses are vastly increased when compared with a normal human's, much like an animal. His ears are more sensitive to sounds, capable of picking up sound waves and frequencies others wouldn't hear. His eyes allow for clearer sight, during the day or even at night. He can see farther as well but not by much. As for his sense of smell, he can inhale many different scents, identify what makes up each individual scent and know the direction it comes from, great for hunting. Of course, intense sounds, bright flashes and strong odors can incapacitate him momentarily. The other two senses, taste and touch are also magnified but not by much, not like the first three. Probably slightly better than a human's.
• ▷ Natural Predator - Sieg is a wolfish beast folk, and a wolf is a predator in the wild. He inherits such traits and becomes empowered by them. Seeing a weakened being, smelling or tasting blood and fighting to kill acts like a catalyst which sets off the natural predator within him. He receives a rush of adrenaline, allowing him to shrug off moderate pain and gains slightly increased physical capabilities. This boost makes him a little stronger and a little faster, enabling him to dominate his prey and emerge victorious. He doesn't feel fatigue during the duration and acts on instinct most of the time. If he doesn't retain rational thought or focus, he'll more than likely drop from sheer exhaustion if not beaten before then. Removing him from the previous catalysts or focusing on calming himself can pull him back from the edge.
