Adachi
Chief-Watcher Adachi Ren
| Name | Adachi |
|---|---|
| Status | Active |
| Occupation | Bree-town Watcher |
| Age | Young Adult |
| Race | Man |
|---|---|
| Residence | Ren has a small home in the Stone Quarter of Bree-town. |
| Kinship | Town Watchers |
| Outward Appearance | Appearance/Build: Ren is an Easterling with an attitude that clearly says to those around him, "I am here to help." He stands at around 5' 11" which, while not very impressive for those of the West, is actually quite tall for those from his village of Sanakai. With a head of shiny, ink-black hair and a set of dark, narrow eyes, he is a rather queer sight to find in a town such as Bree and those unfamiliar with him may actually be rather taken aback by his firm presence in said town. He is very physically fit and agile and can sometimes be found training his body even further at the town training hall.
General Appearance: The Easterling seems to be a rather handsome individual with his generally charming, boyish features. The only thing marring his near-flawless skin is a faint scar across his face, running from temple to lip. When asked about it, he will often obfuscate and change the subject. He keeps his hair shorn short and his face clean-shaven, though he can occasionally be found with some degree of stubble during particularly strenuous times for the Watch.
Attire: Ren most often can be found wearing his favorite dark-blue jacket. With it's gold embellishments and woven sun on the back, it seems he is very protective of this particular garment. Aside from this, he also has a long, white tunic of sorts that is accented in red. Whilst on patrol, he wears a light chainmail shirt underneath his blue, cloth hauberk signifying him as a member of the Watch, though the rest of his armor is designed for manouveurability and is thus very light. In times of great need, he will don a set of steel, Western-style shoulder pauldrons. His favored weapon is a strange, bladed pole-arm of sorts that once belonged to his mother. Just below the blade and at the base of the staff, a pair of dark-red ribbons are tied.
Scarring and Other Blemishes: Ren has no other scars on his body other than the one on his face. As far as blemishes, he has a rather large birthmark on his hip that he shared with his father.

Background
Personality:
Ren is the type of man that is almost a different person on and off duty. Once the uniform goes on, he all business and is quite strict. Having grown up along-side the Appledores, a sense of duty was instilled in him at a very young age. Almost always going by the book, he rarely ever cracks a smile and is a model Watcher in all regards. However, in his free time, he is very relaxed and seems more like a leaf caught in the breeze that takes him wherever it pleases. He often tells stories in The Prancing Pony and generally joins in with any merriment that he may find. Always willing to lend a helping hand and a kind-hearted smile, Ren generally well-liked among (law-abiding) tavern-goers and almost always seems at least a little bit tired.
Fighting Style:
There is a sharp contrast between "Ren the Watcher" and "Ren the Warrior." He is well-known among the Watch for moving like a "storm on a mission" when in combat. With an incredibly focused mind and a swift, agile combat style that he learned from his mother before her untimely passing, one may get the impression that he is always three steps ahead. As well as his bladed staff, he also uses throwing knifes to his advantage as well as a pair of strange rings on his thumb and ring finger. He rarely finds need for these rings, so it is not yet known by most what their purpose is.
