★ First Impressions

♚ VISUAL: Valor stands at about five feet six inches, with the general build of a Q-tip. Dude's pretty scrawny and lanky, and looks about as physically tough as a damp paper towel. His skin's somewhere between a very light red and a dark pink; if you imagine Kirby with a sunburn you're probably about right. His hair is curly and a dark blue, almost black, and kept fairly short all over, not more than neck length at the back. His horns are fairly short and stubby for a Tiefling, they could almost be hidden by his bangs with the right styling. He has large, pointed ears, and a spade-tipped tail. And, though they're usually kept carefully folded and hidden by his clothing, a pair of large, batlike wings sprout from his back. Also his nose is kind of ridiculously big, he could probably pop a balloon with that thing.
♚ FASHION: The thing you'll probably notice first is the hat. It's tall and pointed, with a brim that's almost wider than Valor is. Light blue in color, it's one of his most prized possessions, and his first line of defense against anyone questioning his claims of being a wizard. He often wears a high-collared cloak in the same color, which serves the purposes of keeping warm, looking impressive, and covering and somewhat protecting his wings. Beyond that, he favors leather armor and simple, comfortable clothes that are easy to move in. It's all in good condition, but obviously travel and battle-worn.
♚ DEMEANOUR: Two words: nervous chihuahua. Valor will reluctantly follow friends into battle, but he's not built for direct conflict of any kind, and it shows. He's always hanging back, just a bit, behind the beefy and the competent.
♚ SOUND: Imagine the unholy fusion of Shaggy Rogers, Taako Taaco (you know, from TV), and the Squeaky Voiced Teen, and you've about got it. His singing voice, at least, is a very nice tenor, and when with conscious effort he can do decent impersonations.
♚ SCENT: Valor keeps pretty clean, but he leads a traveling life, so sometimes baths are hard to come by.
♚ MENTAL INFORMATION: Probably not that hard to detect surface thoughts, or even deeper information with effort. Anything in brackets is probably fair game, but check with me to see what a telepath might actually pick up.
♚ MAGICAL INFORMATION: Valor has an innate magical ability, casting spells through his music and sometimes just through the power of his voice. He's studied magic, or tried to, but he lacks the fine-tuned learned abilities of a true wizard. Basically he's that kid who never studied in school, but had enough natural talent to pull at least B's or C's, magically speaking. Or he gets the universe to pity him into letting magic work, depending on your point of view.

★ OOC

♚ BACKTAGGING: Yes.
♚ FOURTHWALLING: Valor is a tabletop OC, so not sure how much this applies? If someone started getting into the nitty gritty mechanics of fifth edition DnD he might get a little weirded out, but that would be it.
♚ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Go for it; if it's platonic, it'll probably be welcomed, if it's meant to be romantic, Valor will either miss the point entirely or think the other person is joking. Check with me if you're not sure.
♚ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Check with me before doing anything extreme? But go ahead and throw a punch or whatever.
♚ RELATIONSHIPS: He will think the other person is joking, but check with me.
♚ OFFENSIVE TOPICS: I don't have any major triggers, just try to avoid graphic descriptions of violence/gore/torture/rape/etc, pretty basic stuff. Valor's backstory touches on extramarital affairs, unwanted children, and emotional abuse or neglect, so let me know if you'd like me to avoid those subjects.
