Reputation
Sage is mostly known for his good work in, well, killing. It's been said he's been a mercenary for more private matters, being trusted by the High Council and all. As a high ranking officer, he's mostly respected and his authority isn't questioned. He's a diligent and hard worker, rarely is he ever out of his armor.
Motive
He just works for the High Council and the Capital. Nothing more.
Appearance
Sagar is not a sight to behold. Scars and mean looks. Tired eyes. His skin is of a rough texture, his hands calloused and his knuckles bruised. His complexion is relatively fair, scars apparent and littered all throughout his body. He stands at roughly six foot four with a stout and beefy build. He has defined muscle but his shoulders are wide and his abdomen has some extra fat on it. He has very little for things like freckles, though the occasional one can obviously be found. His hands are quite large, calloused and blistered. The more obvious and horrific scars are on his back and his right side of his abdomen, all of which were from sword fights. The scar on his back runs from his right shoulder down and across his spine, and stops about midway of his back. It is thick and deep, still engrained in his skin in a way. The other stab wound is apparent but not as devastating.
Sagar has a scruffy face. His face shape is that of an oval, appearing more rounded because of his facial hair that makes it also look elongated as well. His beard is of a short length, grease and grime imbedded in it at this point. One thing about Sagar is you can almost always expect him to look dirty. Disgusting. Any exposed skin probably has some sort of dirt on in. Maybe blood. Anyway, his beard is of a dark brown, some gray hairs showing through though sporadic. His eyes are almond shaped and are a bright green in color, speckles of brown and yellow apparent. His eyelashes are thin yet dark. His eyebrows are thick and bushy and are quite straight, giving him a constant stoic look. He has a number of eye wrinkles and smile lines, especially apparent when he's giving any sort of expression. His nose is straight with a slight bump in the middle, a small scar crossing it. His lips are quite thin and dry, probably chapped. They are a light fleshy pink, his lower lip slightly heavier than the top.
Sagar has a full head of hair. His hair lingers just below his ears and is normally pushed back, though has a middle part. Pieces will fall in front of his face at times, though normally he tries his best to keep it out of the way as it's not long enough to tie back. It almost always looks greasy. Or is it wet? Who knows, but just dirty. It's a dark black in color, leading down to his slightly lighter beard. The grayness isn't as apparent in his thick mop of hair, though it still slightly lingers. He tries to keep it at the length it's at to the best of his abilities. His hair is straight, but again, thick so it has some natural volume to it with its own charm. Uhh, he doesn't really care.
Clothing? Fashion? That's a foreign world to Sagar. He's likely wearing a cotton shirt and a pair of black jean-like pants and leather boots below his armor. He doesn't wear a helmet unless necessary, but he wears shoulder pads and chest armor. Depending on weather, he may wear a fur clock above everything for extra warmth. On his right hip is his sword sheath, which is made of steel and has a dark grip with leather wrapped around for extra grip. He has a knife tucked away in his pants at any given moment as well, normally hidden by his clothing. For special occasions, don't expect a wardrobe change, but he might look a little more clean and less tired... maybe.
Personality
Your average, devoted knight. Except he's not a knight in shining armor. While obedient of what he's asked and great at the tasks handed to him, Sage has a tendency to be very, very focused on his work. He almost lets it consume him in a way as there is nothing else going on in his mundane life. This is all he's done since he was barely an adult, so he's grown quite used to it. However, he doesn't wish he had a normal childhood as he actually loves his job and serving the people. He's selfless in that way and has never used his ranking or connections to try and get something he wanted. As a knight, your job is to serve, and that is just what Sage does without question. But when you have a loyal soldier, who knows how often that gets taken advantage of. You see, Sage doesn't have much for morality. If he's asked, he'll do. He doesn't ask questions. He's your dog on a leash, and he'll go as far as you let him. He'll go even extra far if he's someone you care about.
Speaking of, being someone that this man cares about should be a blessing. As if he's not already loyal enough and devoted, he will protect you for his lifetime. Maybe even from the grave somehow. However, this isn't just anyone. You have to really know Sagar. His faults. His wrongdoings. His sins. His decent deeds. He is a man who would do anything for his tribe and he makes that obvious. If you tell him that someone were bothering you, don't ask - he'll pay them a visit in no time. Of course the extent of murder is a crime, but that's not to say he doesn't know how to dispose of a dead body or maybe even a couple. Getting to know Sagar can become a task as his depths are unmatched and his beliefs are a bit questionable at times, making for a conversation starter.
But know that Sagar is loyal to what he believes is right the most - not just because you're his superior. He plays nice guy until you're not around. Although he's honest, pissing off someone who could just as easy remove Sagar is not a smart move. Sagar has been known for his great warfare strategies and other street-smart tactics, but he's unsure of how most politicians and royalty members go about getting someone removed, and he's sure it isn't pretty. Regardless, he'll probably say his opinion of you to your face anyway, especially if you ask. He figures it's the least he could do for you.
Sagar has a tendency to come off as your average masculine energy - no emotion, doesn't express himself, demanding, and probably a bit of a dick. However, although he sort of is those things, he does find it easier to express himself with humor. He has a witty sense of humor and is probably bound to make some sort of unnecessary comment, need it or not. However, he isn't just going to say anything to anyone. When around superiors he is still respectful and likes to keep that respect to the best of his abilities. He doesn't find it hard to maintain it as they do for him, therefore, he's mostly quiet unless spoken to around those who bark their orders at him. Sagar mostly gives what he gets, and while he isn't competitive, he'll probably be a bigger asshole than you ever could and that's for a fact.
When it comes to conversation, a lot of them are short lived. He isn't into politics. He doesn't like small talk. Sagar likes conversation that would be interesting to everyone in the room, not simply asking if the weather will turn bad in the upcoming days. When he speaks, he either speaks with authority or he's speaking from the heart and there is definitely a way to tell. His demeanor will almost automatically change in a moments notice. He's able to maintain a calmness when in stressful situations as well. But that doesn't mean he's always calm. While he's confrontational and prefers to take the non-genocidal route unless absolutely necessary, he has a mean temper that would easily fuse if the wrong person did something.
Sagar is rather tired. A grouchy man. He doesn't like young people. He doesn't understand sleeping around. He doesn't understand disrespect. He doesn't understand most things. But what he does know is that he liked what he likes and if that's not you then... oh well. You can always try to prove to Sagar that you're more than a certain thing, but he really doesn't care. He's quite apathetic towards those he doesn't know, and he likes to keep his circle quite small. He makes it obvious that greeting him in the street does not make him your new friend. He doesn't really have time for friends as consumed as he is in his work. It's hard to find Sagar out and about, drinking at a tavern or even out of his armor. Regardless, among his sarcastic remarks and grouchiness, he's always alert and ready for a fight if needed. As long as you tell him.
Just like your dog.
