== Description ==
=== Appearance ===
Axial is a 6 foot 4 inch Half-Dragon, as such he is the second tallest member of the party after Cypryjan. His hair grey-black with a long streak of silver in the center left of his hair. Atop his head are four horns, two prominent and two lesser. He sports loose-fitting clothing.
Part of his Half-Dragon lineage gives him the bonus of scaled hands and scaled feet, removing any real need for gloves or shoes. On his back is a long black tail.
He sports an untrimmed variation of stubble and his ears are pointed, hinting to Elven heritage.
=== Personality ===
Axial is reserved and fatherly, having an innate knack of detecting other's distress and discomfort. He is more than willing to meet with people and hear them out, wanting to act as a sage listener more than anything. He seems to have a general discomfort with criminal acts and wishes to do good in the world. He is positive, but unwilling to stay still in the face of opposition, wanting to protect those he loves and defeat potential evil wherever it lurks.
== Biography ==
The following information is not the entirety of this character's backstory. It is only what has been shared throughout the campaign.
=== Background ===
Axial is from Dranimir, a subculture and hub in Malkzor. He has an ex-wife, a son and a sister-in-law that have been mentioned. His goal for reaching the city of Brisbayern was to seek out adventure, wherever it may be, in order to prove himself capable to his family and better himself as a person.
=== Arc 1: The Clockwork City ===
After planning to take his leave from Malkzor for quite some time, Axial said goodbye to his family and hopped on a train destined for Brisbayern. During the travel, Axial made a friend in Peter. Peter was on his way to Brisbayern to present at the World Exposition. Axial reassured Peter and helped him calm down during the train ride. He also promised to see Peter's exhibit, which he made good on. Peter ended up showing off a pressure gauge which would make factory work slightly safer.
Upon arriving in the city of Brisbayern, Axial was put away in a holding cell with the rest of the party for having a number of weapons on his person. Namely two scimitars and handaxes. While inside the holding cell, he made his acquaintance with the rest of the party but mostly with Brynn and Anastazja. After a while, Axial moved towards the Gathershall with other members of the soon-to-be party. When Basker began speaking, it piqued Axial's interest and he went to listen. Only to shortly leave after hearing some of the statements made by the demagogue.
Axial has shown great interest in mechanical engineering, but limited knowledge on it. Most of the time, he questions whether or not a machine does a particular thing but has little reference in this knowledge, due mostly to his factory background, as opposed to his engineering background.
During the infiltration of the Der Rex Bastion, Axial attacked two prison guards by throwing handaxes at them. After the attack, Axial was more than willing to put himself as the vanguard against the Shadowy Figure who was approaching the party.
== Relationships ==
=== Anastazja ===
Interactions with Anastazja have been limited, but Axial has shown an interest in her general health and well-being.
=== Brynn ===

Noticing this, Axial attempted to coddle her and nurse her mind with his fatherly presence. To no avail.
