APPEARANCE
EYES: Black
HAIR: Black
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 6', lean but fit as FUCK
PLAY-BY: Goro Majima (Yakuza series)
FULL APPEARANCE:
The first of many things one would notice about Majima is that he is lean, and he has one eye. His body is angular without being a twig, and anyone who saw him without a shirt on would probably assume he's a swimmer. He is a fighter, and it doesn't honestly look like he is physically strong enough to handle his wher, but he is extremely capable. He is pretty agile for his age, even if he dresses like a stolen wher egg. He keeps his hair short, and is glad no evidence exists of when he was a young upstart who slicked it back into a ponytail. He keeps his facial hair trim but also somehow scraggly, in this nice middle ground of 'rogueishly handsome'. Of course, the major part is that he is missing one eye, and he keeps it covered at all times with a nice eyepatch. He has a wherhide jacket that he wears that he has painstakingly embroidered to look like tunnelsnake scales. Unless it's extremely cold, he walks around with just the jacket and some leather breeches, boots, and gloves. He is aware he looks like a trash fire, which doesn't help the fact that he looks like he is one egg short of a clutch.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Majima presents himself as this axe-crazy, off his rocker madman who strolls around in his noticeable clothes with his crazy-eyed stare. He has this knack for just showing up out of nowhere, and he has gained a reputation for being dangerous. He has very little care or concern for the world around him, it seems. He strolls around cock-sure and confident as if the worries of the world never get to him. It's often said that if you need a job done, Majima will do it for the proper price. It doesn't help that he absolutely promotes this image as well, making sure he's generally left alone due to his supposed murdery nature.
However, Majima is ruthlessly intelligent. For how he portrays himself, he is clever and remarkably good at espionage if need be. It comes with his ability to simply appear out of nowhere, and his intimidating reputation. He is very good at knowing what is happening at almost all times, and isn't a terrible info-broker if he can get the marks out of it. He's definitely done terrible things, and he doesn't hide that, but he can be incredibly compassionate to those who really need it. He has a need for control in his life, to be in the know and on top at all times. Majimask encourages and assists with this, and the two of them are a powerful team.
It's said if you need a job done, no matter how dirty, Majima is the one you ask.
HISTORY
FAMILY: All deceased, not that he cares
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: N/A
BIRTHPLACE: Bitra Hold
HISTORY:
Born to a family of career criminals, Majima learned at an early age that crime absolutely pays. Be it from extortion or outright violence, that was what he learned best. Majima found his place among the outright scum and villainy that marks meant power, and the more you had the better off you were. Not close to his family, Majima rapidly used the charisma of his youth to forge a network of information contacts throughout the hold.
At the ripe age of 18, Majima stole a wher egg from a caravan, and the brown that hatched immediately attacked, taking his eye. Not to take it as a sign of weakness, Majima embraced his more-intimidating appearance and began cultivating a 'crazy' personality to enhance and alter his reputation. The worse he came off, the more of an advantage he had in the world. No one would mess with someone who was likely to stab you and feed you to his wher. That made his life easier.
Majima took time to spread his reputation across the region, gaining nicknames left and right for what he presented himself as. A wild, crazy man with a wher. He used it to his advantage, securing supplies and resources for the few people he allowed in his personal circle. He was not some lord, but most holders took caution when dealing with him. Any acts of kindness from him, while frequent, was rapidly overshadowed by his cruelty and played-up persona. He continued on this way until the Interval War.
Majima built, and built hard. He massed an incredible network of people across the Benden region. Enforcers, informants, runners, he made an extensive group of people willing to follow his orders. Supplies were run to holds. Dragonriders were paid a little extra to poison their kin. If a holder or handler needed something, they could make an appeal to Majima, pay their fee, and he'd make it happen. The man's ruthlessness and efficiency bred loyalty. Everyone could rely on him, and if someone was in a position to earn a little, well, he would put them to work.
With the war, Majima took his chances. He left Bitra, he and Majimask leaving the holders to whatever madness the weyrs were going to visit on them, and he traveled from Weyr to Weyr. The farther he went from Bitra, the less he was known, giving him the opportunity to deliver information between wherhandlers and weyrfolk alike. It didn't matter to him, and why would it? Weyrs fighting was just an opportunity for him to profit off of whatever their mistakes were.
It was after the war that he landed himself in High Reaches, a place just as rough and crazy as him. He wasn't so mighty there, and it was a challenge to carve out a place for himself... so he didn't. Taking his time, Majima laid extremely low until the shiny reign fell, and only then did he begin to emerge. There was an empire to expand. Even now he has powerful connections across the Benden region, slowly extending into High Reaches.
