Description:

Typical of height and overall features, Arem isn't the kind that would stand out in a crowd. Preferring lightweight, easy to move in clothing when off of duty for the Hunter's guild, he otherwise is forced to wear bulky (but relatively light) metallic armor on his chest and legs when on duty.

He is broad-shouldered, with most of his strength visibly concentrated in his upper body, namely arms and back and stomach, but since he is not one for taking hours out of his days in order to do situps and pushups and the like, his musculature is more natural and suited to his fighting style than particularly honed, and as such he has marginally higher percentage of body fat, making that musculature slightly less pronounced than some of his friends and peers. (remind self to do bodytype comparison between Loch and Arem)

Generally upbeat and impulsive, he is lighthearted and doesn't make enemies very easily due to his agreeable nature and desire to be an upstanding citizen. Though he has a long fuse, when it's burnt to its end, his distaste and dissatisfaction are evident through very obviously annoyed facial expressions and a shift in the tone of his voice to a much deeper, stern pitch. While he enjoys fooling around, he never shirks his responsibilities as a Hunter, nor as a husband and father, and is exceptionally attentive to the needs of his family and wife. Unwaveringly faithful and a bit overprotective, he is frequently displeased with the scientific advancements in the Grounding and FAU systems that his wife wears, as they tend to be of less and less material each time.

While open and honest, he has a hard time expressing himself eloquently sometimes.

He sports a scorchmark scar on his lower abdomen from a very unfortunate incident on their wedding night, though very few know about it as he rarely is seen without a shirt on.

He carries himself with due confidence, but not arrogance.

Abridged History:

Born into the unremarkable Talsiar family, Arem did of jobs around the WorldShip before he was enrolled in the Maiden Prime's Zephyr Military Academy at the age of 21 and actually graduated with Honors due to the skill he possessed with the Photon Saber at 25. However, disappointed in the elitest attitude of the Military (The Maiden's Hand), declined his invitation into it and joined the Hunter's Guild instead (more or less a mercenary organization made up of Zephyr Dropouts and those that are physically/mentally/whatever unfit for the military). During his first year working for the Hunter's Guild, he met Ultema, who had just entered Zephyr herself. She was known as being particularly dangerous because of her out-of-control Force Attraction, though her personality betrayed the warnings and the two of them were very comfortable in the other's company. She took many missions to work with the Hunter's Guild because of this (though her peers wouldn't dream of it, considering the rivalry between the Guild and the Military), and he made it a point to partner up with her on them. Proving to be a formidable pair on the field of Valura's surface was the second step towards a sturdy romantic relationship, and after 6 years they had made the move from steady, to engaged, to married. During this time, Arem had risen the ranks of the guild to find a comfortable place in the second tier, and Ultema graduated, and was given an instructor's title, as well as working closely with the government concerning the colonization of Valura.

Things continued as normal for a couple of years, until Ultema was forced to take leave from her job due to maternity leave (which was a second strike against the couple in the eyes of the elder Maidenite population; they were married before 40, and were to have children before 50 which just wasn't done in their society, due to Maidenite extended lifespan. It would be the same as if they were 17 or 18 and having children in our society). During this time, Arem continued with his work for the Guild but also attempted to do his best to alleviate all of the stress on his wife, managing really to only compound his own, as during her pregnancy her abilities were dangerously haywire. However, with the birth of their first child ( by mere minutes), a daughter named Alair and subsequently her fraternal twin brother Wil, Ultema's out-of-control abilities subsided and became much easier for her to control in general (aids in the belief that Forces may be related to hormonal shifts, or at least sensitive).

Things didn't change much after that for them, aside from care being given to raise the twins. Arem continues to work for the Guild, as well as coaching Alair (who follows in his footsteps, and has no real talent whatsoever with Forces, whereas her brother has some talent with them) on her swordsmanship skill. As of late, however, he has become increasingly discouraged, and maybe a little bit jealous of the amount of time his wife has to spend working alongside the Government, and subsequently the mysterious "Governor", who is known to have parties that select few are invited to. Obviously he doesn't trust this Governor (and that means I really, really need to do the Gov's character sheet. XD).

Yar, good looking man. Bummer of a scar :|. I guess it's hard being the plainly human husband of a woman that can go critical mass...!
