Blacksword carries himself with the quiet intensity of someone who has found purpose in service to something greater than himself. The dark sword across his back marks him as a warrior of Redmoon Hall, and there's something almost reverent about the way he bears his weapon. His presence suggests dedication that borders on fanaticism.
