Name: Beowulf (Origin: Anglo Saxon, Meaning: "Intelligent wolf ")
Nickname(s): Beo or Wulf (He really dislikes being called "Wulfie", but it's been known to happen.)
Affinity: Light
Race: Winged Vicarus
Occupation: Guardian
Beowulf lives to have something, or someone, to protect. He has never known or wanted anything else. Before he met Daelyth, however, he would be the guardian of only one thing at a time. Now he wants to protect her and Alandra. Sometimes he has to choose, and so far Daelyth's dedication to helping the people of Alandra has influenced Beowulf to choose her. This may not always be the case.
Allegiance: Alias
In Beowulf's way of thinking, those who seek to put an end to Alias are usually psychotic and merciless killers for whom the only respect he will show is a quick death. Declared neutral parties are acceptable, as long as they don't get in the way of his job.
Abilities: Aside from the expected sharp teeth, claws, and fighting prowess of a vicarus, Beowulf has gotten very good at dive bombing his targets and taking them out with a swift and vicious ripping out of their throats. His wings allow him to fly for as long as his stamina lasts.
Personality:
Good luck finding a vicarus as determined to "do his duty" as this one. Beowulf is always on patrol. Always. Come rain, sleet, snow or shine, this avian is going to protect the world! Well, at least as much of the world as he can reach.
Daelyth is a huge weak spot for Beowulf. He's come to respect and maybe even love her. As a result, he puts up with Daelyth's two muses, Siathal and Vonelis, and has a passing respect for the elf's momaru messenger, Ahlia. The whole group is the closest thing he's had to a pack for longer than he cares to remember, and he will safeguard them to the utmost of his ability. Hopefully that won't interfere with his mission to watch over Alandra too much ...
Strong points: Fast flier, fine focus, loyal, natural weapons, physically fit, and a survivor
Faults: Narrow minded, overprotective, overzealous, and prejudice
Quirks: Likes to bury his nose in Daelyth's hair, nibbles on his tail's tip when he's sleeping, and prefers to press up against something warm when he's relaxing
Likes: Daelyth, catching the "bad guys", clear skies, cuddling with those he trusts, flying, hunting, lecturing Daelyth's muses, and the moon
Dislikes: Anything that threatens what he has vowed to defend, being doubted, moral decisions, and the taste of daffodils
History: There aren't many winged vicarus. They are so few, in fact, that some consider them a myth. With that said, the first question folk almost always ask Daelyth about Beowulf is, "Where did you find him?". He found Daelyth, not the other way around, thank you very much. He's also pretty sure that if he hadn't intervened as he did back then, the elf wouldn't still be around to answer such ridiculous questions.
Little is known of Beowulf's history before he met Daelyth, but since he joined forces with the elven shaman, the pair have begun to create quite the reputation.
