Crimson

Crimson is a major character in the Record of Tavern verse. He was chosen to be the announcer and occasional referee of all the in the tournament between Aegis and Pagun.
== Appearance ==
Crimson is a weathered, disheveled looking man with plain features, fair skin, and black hair. He physically appears to be about nineteen years old, but has a tired look in his eyes that makes him seem older. He wears a leather jacket with half sleeves, a t-shirt with a faded, impossible to make out design on its front, and camouflage pants. He always carries a microphone, which he uses to commentate the fights. 
== Personality ==
When he is not commentating any fights, Crimson is typically melancholy and quiet. He tends to act depressed and not speak much. However, when commentating fights, he is quite motivated and excited, or at least is effectively able to fake being motivated and excited. He is a natural and expert commentator, with a perfect voice and ability to capture attention. He is an excellent hypeman, capable of making large crowds extremely excited as he relays the events of fights. He occasionally jokes or makes puns while commentating fights as well. He takes some measure of pride in his work, not wishing for others to steal his thunder when commentating and desiring for formalities to be properly carried out. Despite all this, Crimson will often bemoan his role and wish he was elsewhere, largely showing that he did not want to reprise his ancient role as a commentator. He will especially do this when he affected by attacks or other events happening in the arena. By all accounts, Crimson seems to be one of the most normal characters in the Record of Tavern universe, often acting as an ordinary person would in the strange situations he observes, and still professionally doing his job with only some complaining.
== Background ==
According to Pagun, Crimson commentated the fights held in the arena long before the war, when the building was still active and used by the denizens of Heaven. However, he disappeared when the arena was shut down and abandoned. He was later tracked down and forced to return to his old role by some of Pagun's minions. It is unknown what he did while he was missing.
== Powers and abilities ==
*Physical abilities: Crimson is capable of viewing and reacting to events that occur extremely quickly during the fights. He was also able to react to and dodge a barrage of attacks from the fastest fighter in the tournament, demonstrating excellent speed alongside his reaction time. He has consistently been able to withstand powerful shockwaves and wind pressure from fights throughout the tournament, demonstrating noteworthy durability. He also can commentate matches that can be up to multiple hours long without growing overly exhausted or losing his voice. 
*Combat experience and intelligence: Crimson is able to quickly analyze and comment on the strategies and abilities of different fighters.
== Relationships ==
*Pagun: It is unknown if Crimson and Pagun knew each other in the past, but Pagun is the one who chose Crimson to be the announcer for the tournament. Pagun is often a bit patronizing with Crimson, who often seems a bit annoyed by Pagun, likely because the god of war forced him to return to his old job.
*The Tavern: Crimson has researched or contacted most of the fighters in order to create hype-generating introductions for them. He is usually not afraid to speak to fighters, and sometimes gets annoyed by their antics. However, he does not seem to be extremely familiar with any fighters.
== Trivia ==
*Crimson is, alongside Aegis and Pagun, a public character that anyone can use freely in their round.
*Crimson is named after the individual that started RoT.
