    Name: Romulus Volbrung
    Race: Hylian
    Age: 35
    Gender: Male
    Place of Origin: Hyrule Castle Town
    PWC: 3/2/3
    Treasures and Rupees: Sense, Rupee riches, Bonus Treasure (Summon Weapon) Huge Potential (100 Rupees)
    Equipment: Regal clothing, a long coat, and a bag
    Pet: N/A
    Appearance: Romulus has a diamond shaped head, with thin almond shaped eyes. He has wavy black hair that goes down to his shoulders. His hair is parted in the center in such a way to not block his vision. His eyes in contrast are a light blue and he sports a full beard.

    He wears a long sleeved tunic with gold triming. Over his heart is the Crest of his family. A shield emblazoned with a tree and a sword laying on the tree. Symbolizing the courage to face any challenges, the wisdom to withstand great storms, and the power needed to fight.

    Over his tunic he wears a black long coat reaching down to his ankles. It is similarly emblazoned as the tunic but this time on the back of the coat. His slacks are also black along with his leather shoes.

    Personality: Romulus is very driven by his own greed and lust for recognition. His life has set him up with knowledge and skills of almost every field. Because he had so many expectations put on him that the common folk don't have he saw himself as better than them. Also due to stories that he had read as a kid gave him the drive to be a hero because only someone with various skills could be one.

    Things changed when he got married. He calmed down a bit and had someone to feed his ego at all times. Things couldn't look better for him, but things crashed once she passed on. His narcissism grew and his dream of being a hero died. It was replaced by the desire to bring his wife back.

    Background: Born of the Volbrung house of Hyrule; Romulus had a bright future with everything he may need. Of course this meant there were things expected of him and from a young age as well. He had to be well read in print and magic, adept with a blade, and cutting with his words. Those along with other skills like ballroom dancing, horse back riding, and sing music. His childhood was full of activities that lead little time to play.

    Though if it was a challenge Romulus rose to the occasion after all his family's image depended on it. A family that at one point had split off from another. Though this darker side of his family was to be disowned it was required learning for him to not make the same mistake.

    Legends of black magic users that sent scourges across the land as some books told and others spoke of great heroes who fought against dark magic. While the specifics have been lost to the ages this side of the family has been long dead. Though these tales still captivated the young Romulus and gave him optimism to be a hero himself.

    At the young age of sixteen Romulus met the love of his life, Emilia. A noblewoman of course, but everything about her captivated him. She was always on his side, always helping him when he needed it, but mostly encouraging him to do his best and ensure him that he was great. He was her Hero.

    It took many years for their families to arrange for the proper marriage but it did eventually happen, and like that the match made in heaven was finally to be. Their marriage was much of the same, though their families pressured for an heir the two of them found that no matter what they did they could not produce offspring.

    The couple didn't care about that, children wasn't what love was about. Unfortunately at one point Emilia grew deathly ill. Romulus wanted to speak the old families knowledge but Emilia wouldn't have it. Though no doctor could cure her and no prayer seemed to be answered. The result was a given. She passed on, leaving Romulus at the age of 35. They had so much more of their life to live, and Romulus kicked himself for not following his gut. He made a vow to himself. He would bring her back. No one, not even the gods, could have His Wife. He needed her, and he would go any distance to get her back.
