Babu Arrowbreaker! The Desert Man.
« on: February 20, 2013, 04:13:23 pm »

Babu was a man from the Windy Desert a place cold harsh land his skin was dark like all men of The Land of Silk (( The Silken Kingdom ))
In one hand a Scimitar and in the other a short sword with a hilt of Ivory with lion bone rings riding up the grip of his blade of silver, His scimitar etched with the image of the moon cycle.

With his cloak and lions pelt hood he took to the east with the wife of the local duke, Running off together they reached a bond to break for lunch upon realizing there rations were low the two decided to hunt for wild game.
Strangers to the east they were shocked and awe to find a Rhino a great beast with a mighty horn jutting from its snout.
His companion the dukes wife let fly from her quiver a arrow hitting the beast in the knee bringing it to the ground.

Taking this chance babu charged the beast stabbing it in the head rending the flesh, The creature lay in pain and fading as babu attempts to deliver a finishing blow.

When just then everything went black!
babu wakes on the other side of the river back fractured on a tree and his teeth scattered around him and blood smearing the grass, After pulling himself with just his arms only a short distance babu would fall unconscious for great lengths of time.

Once the fog in his mind clears babu finds his back has been broke... he will never fight again, his beloved could not be found only a bloody trail leading to the river and a single slipper scattered among broken arrows.

It seems babu had been reckless and the great beast had reared up with its massive horn striking babu in the mouth shattering his teeth and sending him sailing across the river only stopping do to collision with the tree, that is what put him in this state... after this relization he dragged himself back to town and retired...

Babu's first (and last mistake) regarding hoofed animals was attacking one head on. Maybe he could go around killing monsters in an artifact wheelchair.
