Gascon

Gascon strikes quite the dashing figure, especially for a halfling. He is always wearing a broad brimmed, light brown cavalier hat with a crimson feather stuck in to the side this often makes him easily visible in a crowd despite his short stature. His black hair falls in waves almost to his shoulders and he sports an immaculately trimmed goatee. His eyes are a piercing shade of green that can just as easily dance with joie de vivre as flash with fiery passion.

He wears a brown dueling cape over one shoulder which matches his hat, but is bright red underneath to match the feather. It makes quite the effect as he whips it around during performances or a duel. He has acquired a set of elven scale mail armor. Each scale is expertly crafted to look life a leaf and the metal has a slightly green sheen to it. He also now carries a shield. Though it would be little more than a buckler for a human or an elf, for Gascon it serves well. It too is of elven craftsmanship and bears a pattern of leaves and intertwined branches. Sheathed in his belt is a simple, but elegant rapier and a dueling dagger is on the opposite hip. The ensemble is completed by a pair of brown leather pants tucked into fine riding boots which come up to his knees.

Gascon is an artist by trade, but a warrior by inclination. At any given moment he might as easily describe himself as a duelist or poet. Make what you will of his stature, but underestimate this halfling bard at your own peril. Insult his musical talent during a performance one moment and find yourself challenged to a duel the next. If you're lucky, he'll regale you with insults set to verse and meter as he puts your meager swordsmanship skills to shame. He is prone to run headlong into danger for the thrill of the challenge. He is fiercely proud; a trait that has often gotten him into trouble. Bravery and loyalty are both traits that Gascon values in himself and in others. He is as much an entertainer as a fighter and he delights in the adulation of the crowd. He is an adventurer out to make his own mark on history with music or blade. If he has his way, it will be both.
