Erik Von Gyldenstjerne.

User Name: [KnightAngel]

Character name: Erik Von Gyldenstjerne

Mutant Name: Duke.

Abilities/powers: The ability to 'see' things around him through sound and contact with the ground, in aspect of sound then that also means that too loud noises would be painful and cause him to be unable to focus and thereby blind him for a while depending on sound and length of time he's exposed to that sound.

Sex: Male.

Age: 23 years of age.

General appearance: Erik has silvery white eyes, which he rarely opens fully and either way usually is blocked by some fancy pair of sunglasses. He has ruffled raven black/blue hair and a slim body with slimmed muscles which despite his visionary problem helped him become one of the top bachelors in Denmark, partially also due to his noble stature however, but he still usually was fairly desired by a great deal of females just for his appearance, he stands 5'9" and usually wears a dark purple t-shirt, black or navy-blue jeans and white sneakers and often seen outside with a thin ankle-long leather jacket and is always wearing a ring as sign of his noble bloodline and a cane which he though usually don't use much except for in combat due to his abilities giving him the ability to see his surroundings fine without.

Additional Appearance: A small birth mark in the shape of two crossing swords on his lower back.

Personality: Usually is a smooth-talker but is despite that a truly caring and gentle person, has always had a good relation with kids and animals. The people he do care about he'd protect almost viciously and he would not treat anyone who threatens or make fun of those people that he has gained a care for very well, even less so if he finds out they mistreat children or animals. Otherwise seems rather quiet and uninterested even if that might not be the case but just how he was raised as an descendant of a long line of nobles, can also on rare occasions seem arrogant.

Special Skills: Always been rather skilled with languages, mostly learned the ones from the countries surrounding Denmark, being Norway, Sweden, Germany but has also learned Inuit from an expedition he once was on towards the north-pole, also know french and latin due to his parent's strict raising as old-school nobility and is currently studying japanese, russian, spanish and italian, also been taught the ways of Karate, Tae kwon do as well as Judo and Jiu Jutsu.

Place of birth: A mansion somewhere in Denmark.

Weapon(s) of choice: His cane and if he gets a hold of one then any staff of appropriate length and size.

Medical information: Unable to see more then blurry movement but only up to around one and a half meter, but otherwise in clean bill of health

Brief History: Erik has been brought up to be a fine breed old school noble, but after his parent's deaths he uses those abilities when he sees fit despite their wishes, he after their deaths grew up amongst friends and friends of his parents learning more of each side as he saw fit, he never revealed to anyone what truely happened on the day of his parent's death which was the day he learned of his ability the first time, some trauma still exist but he doesn't show that to anybody, not even those closest to him.

Relatives: Parents not since long deceased and none other known relatives.

How long your character has been in the mansion: New arrival.

2010-08-21 [KnightAngel]: Hmmm... Thought that would be better than a sword XD

2010-08-22 [Rice]: LMAO so he knows over five langauges and is learning more and also knows over four different martial arts. 8/ No offense but...this seems a little far fetched. And at only 23 XD...it takes like years to become fluent in a langauge and even longer to study a martial art.

2010-08-22 [Mrs Vicious.]: Its possible. it says he knows four different marcial arts, not mastered, knows a little of this and a little of that type thing I presume.

2010-08-22 [Rice]: I would hope so since mastering four seperate martial arts at that age is just not possible. But, for the langauges I'm still a little hazy, I mean yes if the person were older but at 23...it seems a little like WOAH! Even child prodigies haven't mastered that many 8/ And the fact it doesn't link to his power also. I don't know maybe it will work! XD I'm just cynical.

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: *chuckles and shrugs* Why is that so hard to believe? But of course if you have to be that limited then just look, never said he has mastered the languages fluently but knows them, that can easily be just above tourist level if you really have to have such a hard time believing a human can be smart enough to learn languages that easily I personally learned two different accents or what to call them of Norwegian ^^' In one year, well hardly even that, so what's the problem in that?

2010-08-22 [Rice]: There is a big difference between two accents and a large majority of langauges. It took me ages to learn Russian but half of that was down to learning the alphabet since they decided to not onclude some letters XP. But then I guess there is a difference between learning a langauge that has its own alphabet and symbols than German or French. I guess since I'm not what you'd call gifted with langauges I just find it very hard to imagine. But like I said before, just because I have my doubts doesn't mean I'm saying OMG CHANGE IT THATS IMPOSSIBLE BLARH! And I'm not looking for a debate...I hate them..they drive me nuts. XD

2010-08-22 [Mrs Vicious.]: coolios.

2010-08-22 [Rice]: *pelvic thrusts*..I have no idea

2010-08-22 [Veltzeh]: I'd studied five languages when I was 14 (because they didn't offer more languages! X)) and if I'd been serious about learning them, I'd have been fairly fluent at four of them. Can't say about martial arts.

2010-08-22 [Rice]: Lucky. I just about learnt Russian but when I started to study Japanese it was like suddenly my Russian was being kicked out of my head by the Japanese trying to get comfy XD

2010-08-22 [Veltzeh]: Nowadays I just know two languages properly, heh. Though Swedish wouldn't be hard to get into.

2010-08-22 [Mrs Vicious.]: Im fluent in two and know two more. planning on learning a couple of others.

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: *shrugs* Okay and well not really that much of a difference, not if you look at Norwegian Bokmål and New Norwegian as the two actually dialects are named ^^ But yeah no matter, I mainly learn the pronunciation first then the spelling and symbols and such when leaning a language and I've only studied those I've come in contact with somehow really, while Erik has been strictly taught them from child, so for my part then it's not really something that I find surprising but yeah I have also been rather gifted with languages and in contrast to sports in general then also with martial arts so yeah, but like with me then with him martial arts isn't about kicking butt, but defending himself and people he care about ^^

2010-08-22 [Mrs Vicious.]: which is always the main point in Marcial arts.

2010-08-22 [Rice]: I can't do martial arts 8/ I'd love to but I can't...back problems in the family and any sort of long drawn out exercises can cause a slip disk in the back. I got one once and don't fancy doing it again.

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: *shrugs* It's supposed to be at least, but yeah unfortunately a lot of people see it more as a way to better beat up people.... But yeah guess it's that thinking that made me so desirable amongst the clubs I has been in ^^'

2010-08-22 [Mrs Vicious.]: I cant do them either, I have hip problems sometimes.

2010-08-22 [Veltzeh]: When I practised martial arts, I was always told they're more of a lifestyle than sports, which is why I never managed to train more than a year at the most and got stuck at yellow belt level. I was also told it wouldn't take long (less than a decade I think) to reach black belt – but the ACTUAL training only starts when one has the least of black belts!

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: *shrugs* I got my own problems that keeps me from doing most other sports so yeah XP

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: And well usually always got rather far in martial arts but yeah always happened something so we had to move or change club... Like one club was that "You aren't a true martial artist if you don't got scars or bruises" and well me and my family always had the idea that if you are a true martial artist you won't have that XD Either you avoid fighting all together or make sure that at least people as possible has scars or bruises at the end.... Oh well ^^

2010-08-22 [KnightAngel]: Or rather actually it was one of the trainers there that unfortunately had to train us all the time... There was some other things including his son which also went to the club but yeah most forgotten and rather have it stay that way XP
