Remy Escalder

== Name ==
Remy Trestan Escalder, Remy the Hound, Rig
== Physical Traits ==
One of the best words to describe Remy's body type would probably be "compact". He's neither tall nor short, neither thin nor stocky, though his lifestyle and career choices force him to stay in shape. Thirty-odd years spent on fields of all kinds, whether that be for farming or fighting, have left their mark, and the strength needed to encase oneself in heavy steel on a daily basis and to swing a sword with both hands is evident. Never afraid of hard work, Remy has rough, callussed hands, and a considerable amount of his skin has felt the kiss of steel at some point or another. He has scars both old and new, from the small and insignificant to the nigh-mortal, but none have impaired his fighting ability so far.
Remy is a handsome man and knows it, having a kind of cheeky confidence and a swagger uncommon among the Light's chosen. He's not the kind of man who'd much bother fussing over it though, and can fairly often be witnessed sweaty, bloody, muddy and in dire need of a shave. He keeps his coarse black hair tied in a haphazard ponytail, and often ties a miniature version of it in his beard. His skin is olive, his eyes the same dark green seen in Silverpine evergreens. When clad in armour, he tends to wear the colours of the Argent Dawn. Regardless of attire, he usually has a pipe somewhere on his person and smells faintly of tobacco; another thing he keeps close is an enchanted stein which, as many have noted, serves very well as a weapon.

Remy is a human paladin.
== Guild ==
A Perfect Circle. Up for grabs all ye roleplayers.
== Occupation ==
Loosely affiliated with the crown of Stormwind and the Cathedral of the Light, Remy is nowadays effectively a soldier of the Argent Crusade. He's also found there's no conflicting agenda between these noble pursuits and the selling of exotic grog from his many travels.
== Family ==
Ramona Escalder, first cousin and only living relative, she is and has always been like a sister to Remy. A rogue who hasn't quite taken up on the entire piety thing, but nonetheless restricts her business to the (mostly) legal at present.

Marigold Ambermill, mother, deceased.
Trestan Escalder, uncle, deceased. 
Meredith Escalder, "aunt", deceased. 
Ramona's three brothers, fate uncertain.
== Background ==
Remy has a long and colourful history, parts of which he will merrily recite, others of which he'd rather not remember. Born in Lordaeron before the plague, he was barely old enough to fight in the Second War alongside with his relatives; after the siege ransacked his farm home and killed his mother, he was among those to travel South and rebuild Stormwind. Along came Edvin VanCleef and his stonemasons' guild, and a good chunk of Remy's life as well as that of his cousin Ramona's was spent fighting the very crown he'd later serve. His Defias years are among those he's the least proud of, but if the one inquiring can put his words just right and sweeten them with a pint of good ale, there's tales to be told there, too.
As is often the case with lost and confused young men drifting through life looking for a purpose and an enemy to fight without a vague, nagging sense of remorse, Remy was eventually met with an old paladin who, instead of handing over his valuables, gave him the lesson of a lifetime and a new direction. The Light can be merciful, but he's still better off avoiding Westfall.
== Family Background ==
To the seventh generation and beyond, Remy's family have always been farmers and herders. He and Ramona are the first to become something else, arguably greater; but if ever asked, he will say his father was a great man and that he'd wish to do him proud.
== Criminal Record ==
Has been accused of and served time for a variety of crimes committed in the red mask, including but not limited to theft, robbery, assault, blackmail, bribery and vandalism. Has been accused of treason but acquitted.
