Hector of the Ezra

## Abilities

Hector is a veteran and hardened warrior, victor of hundreds of battles against a variety of foes. He is built like an ox, with extremely broad shoulders, a thick frame, and corded muscles that splay across his body. His fighting style is accentuated by these physical features, with the heaviest plate armor one can find strapped onto him. As such, he utilizes his body like a weapon of its own, with crushing blows given from his sword punctuated by headbutts, shoulder shoves, and especially punches and backhands. His supreme upper body strength gives him unparalleled power and strength with overhead blows, as he utilizes his sword as an item of bludgeonry.

Hector's fighting style, due to its incredibly tanky nature, forces him to restrict his own movement, as utilizing the heaviest of weapons and armor does not lead to great gymnastic feats. He plants himself in a single location, and forces his enemy to deal with the immovable object that he presents to them. His superior weight, size, and strength allows him to easily overpower most other opponents, and his armor and increased muscle constitution allows him to receive blows that would otherwise fell a lesser man. He has a keen mind and perception, and can seize upon tactical opportunities, manipulating the territory around him to alter the course of battle.

With the immobility of his dueling techniques, Hector can be easily maneuvered around and outran. While his attacks are fast and brutal, certain precise attacks can find chinks in the seemingly impenetrable armor that covers him. He is also a vain and prideful man, and assaults upon his honor will easily allow one to manipulate him. While he is tactically successful, and is able to detect weak points in his enemy's defenses, he has a great deal of difficulty with long-term strategic planning. He cannot maintain his focus on a tedious task for a long period of time without entirely losing focus.

Hector's personal feats are numerous. He seized the position of Canto of the Ezra at the young age of 19, surpassing every other of the 5,000 best warriors in the world. He maintained this position relatively unchallenged for fourteen years, with only the eradication of the Ezra ending his reign. He was able to easily defeat the former Grand Arbiter of the Citadel, and survived an unrelenting assault by Citadel guardsmen for an entire day straight. After this, he continued in high-end and strenuous mercenary work for a decade, continually putting himself in the most dangerous positions and taking up the most difficult tasks. He could easily defeat Cedric upon their first meeting, and could fight toe-to-toe with the Reforged Maltri Delkona. He then dueled post-Chrysos Cedric to a standstill, only barely losing the fight after a long and drawn out struggle. He then was the only combatant that remained standing in the Battle in the Green Cavern. During the resurgence of the Ezra, he was the only individual that could possibly provide a challenge to Cedric, and performed with significant skill on a number of engagements against Primogeniture.
