    Name: Rift Tiburian

    Age: 24 years

    Gender: Male

    Race: Sea Zora

    Place of Origin: Eastern Sea

    PWC: 2/1/5

    Treasures: Rupees (20) Hawkeye, Scent Seed Supply, Deku Nuts, Amphibious (Racial), Boomerang Fins (Racial), Electric Aura (Racial)

    Height: 5' 9"

    Weight: 150 lbs.

    Equipment: Rift carries with him a 5 foot wooden spear, tipped with a foot long blade. The blade has one tempered edge and one edge covered in 3 inch long barbs, coming to a sharp point. The base of the spear has a metal loop driven into it, Attached to this loop is 20 feet of thin yet strong rope. The rope is usually attached to Rifts belt, and is stored coiled on his right hip. This spear can be accurately thrown 50 feet, but is better used at close range.

    He also carries with him a basic wooden short bow, with a moderate range and a medium draw. He generally stores this bow unstrung in his quiver, with the string (as well as his extras) stored in one of his hip pouches.

    Rift's third and final weapon is a short, single bladed metal knife with a wooden handle bound with cords of leather. It has a short hilt on the blade side, and the blade has been worn down by years of use and re-sharpening. He wears this blade in a leather sheath on the back of his belt.

    In Rift's pouches he carries four extra bow strings (in addition to the well used one), a small pouch of dried berries (his favoured snack), and a whet-stone.

    Appearance: Although unnecessary, Rift has fallen into a habit of wearing a brown leather kilt, supported by a thickly woven, cream coloured cloth belt. He wears two pouches on this belt, one on either hip. A weathered leather cross belt supports the quiver of arrows worn on his back. An additional, larger pouch hangs from the cross belt on his lower back. Rift wears strapped leather bracers that cover his forearms. The lower-most strap goes across his hand, between his fingers and thumb. The bracers have a slit in it to accommodate his fins. Rift has a light, brown cloth cloak rolled up in his back pouch, though he rarely wears it. His left shoulder is decorated by a tattoo of a black star with six dull points, over laid on a slash of dark green.

    Residence: Rift resides in a two room, wooden house on the southern edge of Mido.

    The first room contains a small wooden table and two simple wooden chairs. On the wall left of the door, which is centered on the western side, there is a kitchen of sorts, which consists of a small work area and storage for food. There is also a large covered tub of water and a well ventilated stone furnace.

    The second room, separated by another door on the eastern wall, is the bedroom. There is a modest cot on the northern wall, as well as a chest for cloths. The chest is almost always empty, since Rift tends to just leave his limited cloths on the floor when he is not wearing them. The only decoration is small, framed painting of two Sea Zoras. The painting was done by his younger sister shortly before he left home, and depicts Rift and his sister playing in the Sea. Even though the art is sloppy, and done by a child, Rift treasures this painting.

    Backstory: Rift was born to a small family in Hyrule Bay. The tadpole years of his life consisted of swimming and frolicking. As soon as he turned 16, Rift took an interest in hunting. One day, when he was exploring, Rift watched a Hylian hunter stalk an animal. The grace and skill exhibited by the hunter stuck in his mind. He practiced for two years, before finally becoming skilled enough, and amassing enough money to buy a modest home in the nearby town of Mido. Rift spent 6 rather uneventful years living in Mido, hunting for a living and traveling throughout Northern Hyrule. Rift offers his services and knowledge of Northern Hyrule to other travelers, frequently guiding them across the land. He will take jobs from people living as far away as Hyrule Castle-Town, but Nabooru is as far south as he will venture. Every season Rift will spend several days on the sea helping out on a fishing ship. His knowledge of the waters and fishing hot-spots brings in some decent work. While not on the sea, traveling or hunting, Rift stays home and crafts. His goal is to craft his own guitar, and then learn to play it. He has been working on it for 3 years.

    Pass.

    Don't forget your "free" racial abilities for being a Eastern Sea Zora (Specifically Amphibious, Boomerang Fins, and Electric Aura)
