Characteristics.

• Well-muscled, but he doesn't eat well enough to get any muscles of ridiculous size. The human part of his heritage is more subtle than some half-drow, but standing next to a full Drow it's pretty visible, with his skin more pale than a full-blooded. He tends to wear very dark colors and keeps his greatsword strapped to his back at all times.
• Not very fond of Drow, understandably, but his hatred has dulled somewhat (due to getting to kill a whole lot in his line of "work.") Nevertheless, he wouldn't extend much kindness towards any Drow he came across or when one asked him for help -- if any at all. He doesn't have any grudge with other races, as he would natually prefer them, or working with them (something that doesn't happen very often).
• Came from Basq.

Family.

• Anni (mother)

History.

Fitting of a life of violence, Reive's conception was no different; his mother, a human slave girl who worked in the kitchens, was raped by a guest of her master, a Drow official. Since it was of no real consequence, she was allowed to keep him. His mother didn't live very long, because of the stresses of hard labor and a difficult childbirth -- she died when he was 16. Disgruntled, Reive began to use what tiny amount of free time he had (normally reserved for things like sleeping) to become a gladiator and make enough money to buy his freedom.

It took a while, but eventually he did, his master not hard to convince because of Reive's dual heritage. Newly freed, he decided to continue being a gladiator, as he had few other skills that could make him money.

Personality.

His past hasn't afforded him much use for a cheerful air. Reive tends to be sardonic, short-tempered and not afraid of a confrontation in the slightest, even when he's on the short end of things. He counters this by being extremely good at getting out of a scrap.

Likes/dislikes.

Likes any situation that ends with violence, or where he doesn't have to talk, as he doesn't have a gift with words. So you might say that his worst scenerio would be giving a speech or something of the like.

He especially likes drinking, usually hard liquor, to dull any unpleasant sensations that he may have picked up with his work.

Fears.

He'd say that he can't afford to be afraid of anything, but overall, Reive has an intense aversion to shovels, as his supervisor while he was a slave was constantly threatening to bury him alive if he didn't work fast enough.
