Name: Adler BlackEagle
Age: 80
Birth date: Year 986 of the 3rd Millenia
Alliance: Northern Empire
Height: 4' 10
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Black
Fur Color: a wiry tawny brown with deep brown stripes. He has brown stripes all down his back and three in succession down his tail. He has paws and ears of the same color. His muzzle is a light creme color, which then runs down to his chest creating a bib-like pattern. The tip of his tail is of the creme color.
Pysical Qualities: He is on the shorter side even by Maccbee-an standards. His most distinguishing characteristic is that of the scar over his right eye that runs parallel to his nose. He is blind in that eye and gets very agitated if someone comes up on him from that side without making their presence known. His right ear is shredded, this is a further consolation from the same incident that the scar is from. He stands with a slightly hunched posture for age has not been kind to his back. He also walks with an almost unnoticeable limp, but it is visible if one watches him closely.
Story
Adler was born in the small city of Vessex just near the great Cerpentin. The strange irony is that, even though the city of Vessex is inhabited mainly by those of northern make, it is on the southern -side of the river. A result of this is that Adler was brought up under the rule of the south and with almost no rights under southern law whatsoever. This cultivated a deep hatred for the south within the young Adlers heart. He had very little formal education in his younger days, and left his home at the earliest age possible. Adler enlisted in the military of the old Northern Empire because he had no expertise in anything else.
During the Great War between the nations, Adler served his newfound homeland faithfully and managed to earn himself his last name in the process. A single infantry man taking on an Elite Southern Griffon rider was certain death. Somehow Adler managed to do it and come out alive and without any abrasions on him. He was awarded one of the Norths highest metals for his bravery and granted the surname of BlackEagle. However, the Kittixs luck ran out in the latter half of the conflict. He barely managed to escape a Southern surprise attack with his life, but he was stabbed several times and was blinded in the right eye. Because the wounds to his head were not deemed serious enough to need mechanics, Adler never saw battle again for the last five months of the conflict.
To unofficially end the conflict, the North and South signed an uneasy truce so that the tattered nations could try and repair some of the damage that had been caused within their borders. Adler, during that time, struggled to get somewhere in his life and struggled to make some sort of living. But it was also during this time that the Kittix managed to get himself into politics and the system of government that ruled the north. It was also then that Adler discovered that he had a talent for rhetoric and a gift for convincing those with the most power to pass the laws that would help in the effort to defeat the south.
Adler now had a practical cult following of admirers and disciples. He rose to second in command behind the northern leader, but Adler was a very impatient Kittix by nature and he could not wait for the one ahead of him to pass away. All it took was a single bullet and Adler had complete control of the north. Despite his brutish actions to gain power, no one actually questioned him because he had such promise for the northern empire and almost all believed that he would be the one to lead them to victory against their most hated enemy: The South. As soon as Adler took power, the entire nation was reformed and reconfigured nearly over night from an unorganized rabble of citizen soldiers to one of great discipline, military strength, and scientific breakthroughs. The north was now ready to resume the war.
