.:Name:. Artigas
.:Nick Name:. None
.:Affiliation:. Trikru, The Coalition (Grounder)

.:Physical Appearance:. Artigas is a muscular young lad that has long dark hair that is often braided and tied back, his eyes are a dark brown, almost black in colour. He is often seen wearing clothing made of leather or dark fur that helps him blend into his surroundings so that he doesn't stand out. Most of the time he does have a somewhat dirty appearance and this is for a variety of reasons, because of the physical activities of a warrior but also because of the constant sparring with his friends, either for training purposes or just to let off steam after a long day of training.
.:Height:. 5'10

.:Personality:. Artigas has always been quite a quiet child, he enjoys focussing on his training instead of becoming involved in petty arguments with the other children in his village. That being said, he is a typical boy, he enjoys sparring with his friends and like most boys his age everything is a competition. He has an unwavering loyalty to his clan and is determined to prove himself a worthy warrior of Trikru. He enjoys fighting, but he is by no means violent. He is used to the brutal training that takes place within his clan and he enjoys the beating and the feeling of overpowering an opponent, but he understands that violence should only be used in battle and when faced with someone who is a threat.
.:Special Skills:. Artigas has many skills that he has picked up on throughout his life, the most notable skills he has is his skill for handling a spear and his hand to hand combat is also worth mentioning. Like most grounders he has skills with a knife. However Artigas also has his fair share of flaws, unfortunately the boy can become overconfident, he tends to underestimate his enemies, a flaw that could no doubt cost him his life one day and he has never really had the patience for hunting or healing, he prefers the adrenaline rush that fighting gives him.

.:Birthplace:. Tondc
.:Family:. Nyko (Father), Tannica (Mother)
.:Occupation:. Second/Warrior (Nearing the end of his training)
.:History:.

Artigas was born to Nyko and Tannica when they thought that they would never have a child of their own. As a result his parents have always treated him with love and affection and maybe they have paid him more attention than most parents give their children but he was very special to them. Having no siblings of his own, Artigas spent the majority of his childhood running around the village with his friends that he'd known his entire life, they often put on mock battles and returned home with very real injuries. Nothing too serious, a split lip here, a black eye there and bruised ribs were not a rarity. However, nothing deterred the child from getting into these somewhat rough games with his friends and it was apparent from a young age that he'd grow up to be a warrior.

He became a second to a great warrior when he was no older than eight and he was delighted that somebody thought he could actually become a warrior one day. Maybe at the time he didn't fully understand what the risks and responsibility of becoming a warrior meant but after a while, he got used to the early mornings, the strenuous training sessions and he found a new interest in learning the English language. He found the language interesting as he'd never been allowed to learn it before because only warriors had a need to communicate using English. He often enjoyed sitting down with his mentor after a long day of training to just learn the different words, he found it fascinating how the language differed from the familiar words of Trigedasleng that he was used to.

Often accompanying the other warriors out on scouting parties, Artigas proved to be a promising second that would no doubt develop into a talented warrior after receiving the appropriate training. Although he showed promise, his mentor often picked up on his overconfidence and often reprimanded him for it, telling him that underestimating his opponents would get him killed if he wasn't careful and it wasn't a good quality for a warrior to have.
