Character Name
”You will except him...”
Name: Edgar “Ned” Slivermen
Title/Nickname: The Bondsman, “Hey, you!”, Monk, Sir, … Lord
Age: 29
Height: 5’ 11”
Weight: 180lbs
Appearance and Personality
Eye Color: A mysteriously light blue
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Physical Description: Muscular, fit, but surprisingly thin for how much he weighs. He can be seen on the outside with a suit and tie, pinstriped, blue and black. On the inside of his temple and monastery his clothes change to his normal brown woolen robes. A cross hangs from his neck, it is wooden and hanging on a common cotton string; he never takes it off.
Likes: He drinks his coffee black. Usually sticks to water and occasionally drinks unhealthy foods, who doesn’t like them? He loves Italian food, and anything that is actually authentically made. He likes the opposite sex but because of his Orders rules he can only admire them from a distance, even then he tries to pray the urges away. He spend most times praying and enjoys the nature to do so. He also enjoys smoking cigars, only the best though, Toscano.
Dislikes: He hates pain. Weather that be falling or stubbing his toe, but doesn’t everyone? He dislikes eating things that are unhealthy, at least later in the day. Exercising is always at the top of his dislike list but he drives himself to do it, he would prefer his work to incorporate exercise so he doesn’t have to on his free time.
Fears: He fears others with power, or what others are capable of. The devastation Edger is capable of can be a sliver of what they can do. This and that others have abilities that they claim were given to them by their false gods, there has to be another reason, God has a plan… right?
Goals: To spread the word of his creator. Working in a special organization to be sure this happens. The spread of the false cults of these days have increased and gone rampant. Under orders of the Pope himself, such is every member of The Order of St. David’s Shadow, to stop these people from talking and continuing such a route by any means possible. The Pope seemed to be purposefully vague in his language.
Habits: He wakes three times a night to pray. Eats the same monastery foods as every monk in his orders. He tries to stay in sync with his prayers even when off in the city. He also tries to clean his weapons every night.
General Personality: Eager to please those above him and excel at anything he places in front of himself, to prove he can do it. He was told by some that he could not and it pleased him to prove them wrong.
He tends to be kind to strangers but if he knows your religious affiliations he will stop at nothing to prove you wrong or convert you. He likes a challenge all the "no"s sound like yeses. He tries to keep planting seeds for as long as he is able.
He likes long stakeouts and can be very persistent. Tracking down people is one of his favorite pass times. He doesn't like to kill people, it leaves such a horrible mess behind, but he doesn't hesitate if you are unwilling to except Jesus.

History
Birthday: November 13th
Relations: No living family known.
Birthplace: Born in America, Michigan, Detroit.
Current Residence: Vatican City
History: Born in Michigan he was raised in a nice family. Loving mother even more loving father. Under their roof till he was 14. After they died in a tragic car crash he reached out to religion for answers and found all of them. The Catholic church welcomed him, like they would anyone, and Edgar devolved deep into the religion. Becoming a monk at age 18, he moved to Italy and found himself falling in love with the idea of joining an order. A monk from David’s Shadow approached him, maybe it was his perfect athleticism, or his devotion to The Word. Either way Edgar didn’t refuse, though he didn’t realize what kind of rabbit hole he was falling down till he hit the bottom.
The Shadow is surly where they operated. The top of his class in all the subjects Edgar excelled extravagantly. He quickly became the first person under 25 years old to become Cardinal, Order of St. David’s Shadow, almost an equivalent to General in the Vatican guard. It was a mixture between his ferocity and kindness that got him to the top. He now guides and leads his agents though the shadow, into the eventual light. They will guide others… drag them if necessary.
He noticed his abilities at are 14. It could have been the car crash that set them off, or maybe his new found faith. After he prayed and accepted God and Jesus things began to float around the room. He practiced for years and eventually perfected his skills, as he perfected most of everything in his life, at least tried too.
