Dexter Jeanes

Dexter is a tall, strapping man with tan skin and toned muscles. He's about six feet tall and weighs a little over two hundred pounds. He bears several battles scars across each arm and a few on his back.
He is, what some would call, the picture of a Hero. He has long, straight brown hair pulled into a ponytail that falls halfway down his back and his chin is adorned with a small goatee. He has bright blue eyes that seem to sparkle in the right light.

Dexter is a charmer. He can talk his way out of (or into) most any situation. As a result, he is used to getting what he wants and gets very frustrated when events don't work out as he has planned.
He is a brave and stalwart combatant, willing to fight any foe and conquer any obstacle. He has a very high opinion of himself and is very stubborn so he'll take pretty much any challenge presented to him, regardless of his actual ability to complete it.
Dexter loves talking to people and makes friends easily.
He dances the line of morality, usually choosing the path that will benefit him most. He does have limits, however, and does not believe in killing innocents.

Dexter's parents, though both Heroes, were--in short--idiots. They stayed alive long enough to meet, fall in love, conceive him and then die after goading a group of bandits they'd thought defeated just a little bit too much. They were sliced and diced into a little pieces and Dexter was left orphaned in the Guild's care.
He began Hero training almost as soon as he could walk, talk and hold a (toy) weapon simultaneously; not because anyone forced him to, but because the child could hardly stand being around Heroes all the time and not being involved in it all. There was hardly anything of particular note about his training process. Towards the beginning, he was just like every apprentice, learning the three disciplines and excelling in one area--his being Skill. He was fortunate enough to cross paths with the greatly renowned Hero of Oakvale on rare occasion, but whenever the opportunity came to meet the man, he would get scared and hide, something he was particularly good at. As he entered his latter teens, however, Dexter's Skill abilities starting increasing at rates unheard of for his age group and bloodline.
When Dexter turned eighteen and graduated, The Guildmaster finally told him of his parents' fate. He was swallowed both by embarrassment at his foolish ancestry and an overwhelming desire for vengeance. He began researching through the Guild Archives and old quest cards and deduced that the bandit clan his parents had been murdered by was mostly taken care of by older Heroes not too long after he started his training.
Unsatisfied with this ending to his parents story, he tracked down the remaining members of the bandit clan who were now all in separate clans and killed them--slipping into their camps and slitting their throats in the night. With his thirst for revenge quenched, Dexter was able to begin his life as a Hero with his mind at peace.
In the seventeen years since, Dexter has completed many quests and become quite a respected Hero in Albion. He is most well-known for his abilities in dispatching bandits and his skill with a bow.

Dexter is able to use his powers of Will to affect the flow of time around him, slowing or quickening the area around him, or individual creatures.
