Name: Boris "The Spider"

Age: 62

Race: Naissur

Appearance: Boris is 6'3" with a bold face, great bushy, black beard and kind little eyes. He's a large man with a rotund belly and powerful shoulders. He often dresses in drab vests, jackets and trousers.

Personality: He had a gruff personality and is almost always lamenting on "The Good Ole' Days" but he's a very caring and warm individual even though he tries often to hide it.

Abilities: Boris is an old fashioned warrior. He's most comfortable with his hammer and sickle but he does have a rudimentary knowledge of blocking and distracting spells.

History: The Naissur are a basic people, very close knit. The communities are relatively small and each person's occupation benefits the community as a whole. They enjoy their simple lives, agriculture, carpentry and blacksmithing work harmoniously alongside warriors and diplomats. Unlike most of the Veils races the Naissur do not pride themselves on their magical pursuits. Warriors and horsemen are the most prestigious of titles.

Boris was born to a long line of warriors. He has always taken pride in his small hometown and the forests surrounding it. As a child he could always be found in the forest and has become somewhat of a survivalist because of this.

He joined The Covenant after the death of his wife when he was in his thirties. She succumbed to a rift in the Balance and he joined to avenge her death. He does not discuss the circumstances surrounding her death but has remained with the Covenant even in his retirement.

Weaponry: His trusty hammer and sickle.

Familiar: Despite his nickname Boris has no bond with arachnids. He earned the nickname from a former Covenant member who never really explained the reason for the label. It always annoyed him in the past but since that members untimely death he has worn the moniker with muted pride.

Boris dosen't have a familiar but he does have a rather ordinary Naissurinan Wolfhound. Nearly the size of a pony Niko is covered in shaggy gray fur and looks almost as if someone dumped a pot of coffie on him. He's a codgery old dog but he loves Boris to death and is extremely protective.
