Outward Appearance

Edenric is a bit of a peculiar little man. He stands at around 174cm (5.7ft) tall and is guessed to weigh around 65 kilos (143lbs), having a bit of a frail build for what would be expected of a quarter-orc. He has a... decent amount of muscle, though has clearly not seen much battle or labor in his time. He looks more athletic in a flexible way, like a thief.

 

His facial features are twisted by the scarring on his face, though tend to remind of the heritages he draws from all the same. The scars themselves primarily consist of a large bite-and-tear mark made by a warg; it having blinded him in one eye and creating deep cracks in his skin all the way from his scalp and past his jaw. The skin around the scars is pulled downward, forcing his blind eye to be slightly squinted at all times.

His body is not much different; deep gashes from what seem to be teeth and claws adorn and deform it, and it is clear there have been a lot of puncture wounds as well.

 

What is left of his face can be described as more narrow and sharp, though not exactly meeting the conventional features of attractiveness one would assume when given such a description. He wouldn't have been considered ugly before the unfortunate events of his life, mind, but not handsome either. Just... average, with a distant hint of orc.

 

The main features he can claim from his orkish heritage are his canines that are just a bit too long to be considered the human standard, as well as his slightly pointed ears.

His hair is the same black as that of his Numenorean ancestors, and his eyes a similar yet slightly too dark shade of greyish-blue.

 

In the past he dressed in mostly black garb, optimised for... seemingly illegal activities in the dark. Nowadays, however, he is mostly seen wearing expensive clothing, tailor-fit to his family's standards. While there is still a lot of black in the colour palette, he is no stranger to reds or even decorations in gold.

Background

Edenric was born in Wildermore to a human mother and a half-orc father. He never knew his father to his knowledge, and lived with his mother in a cabin away from society. Despite their isolated life, the Men of his mothers hometown would demand the death of young Edenric, which his mother continued to refuse.
It is in his sixteenth year of life that he swore an oath to them: he would dwell only among his own kind, he would not steal the women of Men, he would be the end of his line, and should he fall for the faults of his blood he was to turn his blade on himself.

Edenric continued to live with his mother until his twentieth year, in which he was visited by a monster of Mordor named Girakun. She had been paid to kill him, but ultimately spared his life. Pathetic she would call him, and tell him to leave this place. "Breeland is a place of many peoples," Girakun advised, and so he listened.
Granted, Girakun had not expected Edenric to follow her to Breeland, but ultimately she never chased him away. The two became an odd pair of traveling companions, in which Edenric essentially became the accomplice of an infamous serial killer.

Girakun, whom slipped into the mask of Naernith upon their arrival, further allowed Edenric to remain by her side in between her... adventures. It is in this time that Edenric began to mix with the Men of Bree - against his oath - finding himself somewhat accepted by some as long as they did not know what he was.
This did not last, for Naernith would soon after sell him to Isengard. It is here he earned his scars, but also where learned how to survive independent of others.

Edenric became a White Hand scout rather than a slave in the pits as time progressed, gravitating back to Bree during his travels. It is here he became involved with a... foreign seller of wine, and it only went downhill from there. He would go on to break his oath further by falling in love with one of the Dunedain, even becoming engaged to her. During this time he also cast the shackles of Isengard off, finally a free man. Somewhat.

His connection to Naernith had become increasingly suffocating due to her deteriorating condition, ultimately costing him his relationship and his place in Bree. What he did gain, however, is knowledge of his fathers bloodline.
The day had finally come to meet his father, and soon after the Black Numenoreans of Mordor he was related to.
Edenric left Breeland, his friends, his past love, and his odd Elven companion behind and settled into his new, more luxurious life.

Though despite everything, there is an increasing void within his heart, and he cannot help but miss the days before he set a foot out the door of his childhood home.

 

I bet on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I'll pay for my place by the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down
I'll be there on their side
I'm losing by their side
