Reiner

**Archymedus Atticar Reiner** is a professional fighter in Skenesos, well-known for his impressive record.

## Biography

Born in Axis, Plostri, Reiner grew up on the streets learning to fistfight as a method of survival. As a teenager, he was scouted for his talent and trained in boxing by a cage fighter who saw potential in the young tiefling and a future for him in the arena. Hoping to escape the poverty he was born into, Reiner trained hard to become an elite fighter and took the name 'Jac the Grimhand' in the cage.

Reiner used the rage he felt from the frequent racism he experienced as way to push beyond his limits and was known to come back from severe beatings to knock out his opponent. Over time, Reiner became one of Axis' most successful underground cage fighters and was very soon labelled undefeated in weapons-free combat categories.

He became famous when he accepted a bounty on several monsters that had been plaguing a distant archipelago for years. The increased reward saw challengers take up the cause each year, only for none to return. He took the opportunity to travel the world and was renowned for slaying every monster and surviving over the course of two years, earning him enough money to move on from cage fighting in Axis.

He soon moved to Skenesos, where he continued to work as a pro fighter in various arenas and tournaments. Though his adventuring days were behind him, Reiner frequently took the opportunity to travel the world for fights and was determined to make his name well-known in as many countries as possible. He retains infamy for being undefeated in professional hand-to-hand combat.

## Personality

Reiner is a relatively quiet, if cocky, individual. He takes great pride in his craft and is dedicated to showcasing his talent to the world. He is renowned for his ability to take and overcome serious beatings, drawing on an inner strength that allows him to take advantage of his enemy's lowered guard to overcome great odds, despite accruing many injuries due to this tactic.

Reiner is rather reserved when it comes to his private life and does not appreciate the lurid speculation of tabloids. He has, however, stated many times that he wants to be a role model to other tiefling and makes a concerted effort to travel for fights in nations that are less friendly to or familiar with his kind.

## Abilities

Reiner is a superb hand-to-hand combatant and is a highly-trained and experienced mixed martial artist. He was known to utilise his strong tail in horns in cage fights, but has since moved away from such moves to account for the stricter rules of professional fighting. His is proficient with several melee weapons, though he prefers weapon-less combat in his professional life. His adventuring experience has proved his capabilities outside of the arena in mortal combat against powerful creatures.
