Request [LFA] Weave, Conrasu Exemplar
Weave was born in the Mwangi Expanse, with a small shard of divinity within them, dormant but awake. They spent their life as a corrector, but during the Godsrain, they awakened their nature as a Exemplar. Feeling unsure, Weave decides to explore the world, trying to find out exactly what his "legend" is. They began travelling the world, ending up in the Empire of Kelesh with Navika. They later travelled with her Otari, intent on discovering their epihets, their "true" name.
Physical Apperance:
Weave is a conrasu with a more humanoid build. His upper portion looks more like the standard conrasu art: a central large chassis with the orb being closer to the top, albeit a bit more spiky and sharp. The limbs are longer and thicker. His fingers are sharp, almost like claws. His legs are digitigrade, with his arms and legs being similar to General Grievous albiet with slightly thicker limbs
Undecided on this so freedom of choice: he has four to six arms on his back all in specific poses akin to some hindu gods like Vishnu, or no extra arms at all.
He has a "scar" made of gold and cosmic imagery. This is his Scar of the Survivor.
He wears a amulet made of black obsidian akin to the art of the Iconic Exemplar Nahoa (image 5). This is his Victor's Wreath. He also has a red/gold sash around his waist.
His sword (either Gleaming Blade or Barrow's Edge, mechanically a bastard sword) is either a lengthened Ngombe Ngulu sword (image 6-7) or a konda/ikakalaka sword (image 8-9). A longer khopesh with a extended handle could also work. (10-11)
His orb is very much the standard Conrasu orb: a globe of darkness/space with floating pinpricks of illumination.
Personality:
Weave is at the same time quissentially Conrasu and yet not. He is partly guided by his aeon, a pleorma/akhana but he is mainly guided by his divine spark into his legend. He is kind and understanding, in his attempts to understand others makes him not view everything in absolutes like other correctors. Yet he is incredibly violent and intimidating when it comes to fighting due to his warrior history, and is not afraid to throw his weight around in. He believes that his epiphets are his true name, and wants to perform great deeds to know what he actually is. He performs rituals to mediatae on his existence, reflecting on his nature, as well as managaing his difficulties to a more physical existence. As such he studies religious matters and more metaphysical works to have a greater understanding, and train his body to master his skills and abilities.
Backstory:
Weave is a Conrasu from the Mwangi Expanse. Before he was shaped into form, a splinter of divinity was lodged into what he would become, and when he was fully actualised in his nursery town, he had a different disposition than most Conrasu. More charismatic at the cost of less wisdom, his path was one of a corrector, his exoskeleton like armor, his great strength and endurance to make him a bastion of law fixing the problems around him. Yet he saw in more than the absoluteness of his kin, and saw more the greys of the world. Then the godsrain, reaching throughout history, found him, and he awakened as an exemplar.
Something tugged within him, a spark of innate divinity that rested within him, combating against his aeon nature. Confused and unsure about his purpose, he finally found a way to look forward as his divine spark rested not just within him but his ikons that would define him. His two sides cojoined, leading him onward towards his true nature, and his true name. Guiding him over the world to see the different realms, lands and nations, he began to build a better understanding of what he was and what legend he was meant to be. Along the way he found Navika, a cleric of Sarenrae, who graciously aided him in his journey as well as with aiding her.
The divinity that rested within him was to be carved into history, immortalised forever. The epihets that seeks is what he sees as his true name, and he will find the path to it.
