Introduced to the Broken Dagger in 2001, [[Biske]] didn't actually start play until 2002. He needed a character. Always mildly interested in werewolves, and being a big fat [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furry_fandomfurry furry], Reagan Biske was the first character of Biske's to be made for the game. His name is derived from the French tale known simply as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisclaveret "Bisclaveret"], or "The Werewolf".
  
Reagan Biske's name is derived from the French tale known simply as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisclaveret "Bisclaveret"], or "The Werewolf", and shows the original intentions of the character - that is, a brave and riteous knight who happens to also be a werewolf. Deeming this "totally boring", Biske dumped the idea and completely rehauled the character to his currently cowardly, filthy state.

Despite being involved in numerous plots and suffering many injuries, Biske's pessimistic outlook and personality (if he ever had one) has changed little. A self-proclaimed coward, Biske nevertheless manages to save the day once or twice. And, much to his dismay, he has recieved no monetary rewards for doing so. As of June 7, 2006, Biske has been cured of his werewolfism.

=The Nature of the Beast=
 +
'''Biske''' - as he is known - is a tall, lanky man of obvious northern peasant stock, being pale of skin with hair and eyes of unremarkable brown. He stands at about the six-foot-four of an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectomorphic ectomorphic] body type, many times looking quite emaciated even when he is eating consistantly. His hands are unusually large, even for his height, with long fingers and pink, burn-healed skin. His hair is quite long and curled, wild, and tangled - oftentimes with various objects stuck in it, such as sticks and leaves. His scraggled, poorly-trimmed beard hides a receeding chin and powerful jaw. His brow and features are lined with stress and age, a bit of silver appearing at his temples and peppered throughout his beard.
  
=Description=
+
He is positively covered in scars; many times they completely replace the original skin. Noted scars include the tangled mass at and around his neck, including a burn-mark of linked chains; numerous small scars across his face, as if he'd been gnawed upon; a long, gashing scar across his abdomen; masses of scars about his ankles and arms; back, and sides, completely covered with the cruel, thick trails of a whip. There are many more, most inflicted upon himself while he had transformed. He has extensive, healed burn-marks across his entire body, where the skin is bright pink and tender. His left eye is missing, leaving a gaping hole.

He stands at about the six-foot-four of an [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectomorphic|ectomorphic]] body type, many times looking quite emaciated even when he is eating consistantly. His hands are unusually large, even for his height, with long fingers and thickly callused palms.
+
The man is most noted for his coats; a sturdy one of forest green that was later destroyed by the werewolf [[Phaedra]]; one made of tanned hide and fur, made for him by [[DaisyDreams]]; and a longcoat of dark blue, with wide cuffs. His clothing is usually filthy, ill-fitting, and one tear away from falling apart, save for his sturdy boots. He has a long, trailing cloak of deer hide, another gift from the enigmatic [[Stood-as-One]], and in turn gifted to Daisy.
  
There are quite a few visual clues that mark him as a [[werewolf]]. His lips are ashen-grey; his pupil is pinpoint, eye being mostly iris; the fingernails on his hands are more like the blunt, black claws of a wolfs; and perhaps the most noted is the long, bushy tail that extends from the small of his back and tailbone.  
+
He carries a rather evil-looking axe of obvious [[drow]] origin, being apparently carved from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsidian obsidian] and laced through with spiderwebs of silver; the double-headed blade being in the shape of bat wings - the centerpiece, a spider who's legs form vicious spikes, and who's head is that of a grinning, horned skull. It's uncertain just how he managed to find it, though it is known that [[Lokelei]] aided him in some fashion, and that he found it somewhere in [[Audmathus]]'s old haunt (see [[Cowardice]]).

He has extensive, healed burn-marks across his entire body, where the skin is bright pink and tender. His left eye is missing, leaving nothing than a gaping, uncovered hole.

Biske seemed, at first, to be more stable now that the werewolf curse afflicts him no longer, revealing himself to be rather quiet, meek man - certainly far from the sniveling, explosive man he once was. But due to the influx of formerly lost memories unleased by the curing, Biske seems to be growing more and more off. He has ceased sleep altogether, catching only a few catnaps now and then, and has become increasingly paranoid and unstable.

Reagan Biske
Information


Introduced to the Broken Dagger in 2001, Biske didn't actually start play until 2002. He needed a character. Always mildly interested in werewolves, and being a big fat furry, Reagan Biske was the first character of Biske's to be made for the game. His name is derived from the French tale known simply as "Bisclaveret", or "The Werewolf".

Despite being involved in numerous plots and suffering many injuries, Biske's pessimistic outlook and personality (if he ever had one) has changed little. A self-proclaimed coward, Biske nevertheless manages to save the day once or twice. And, much to his dismay, he has recieved no monetary rewards for doing so. As of June 7, 2006, Biske has been cured of his werewolfism.


The Nature of the Beast

Biske - as he is known - is a tall, lanky man of obvious northern peasant stock, being pale of skin with hair and eyes of unremarkable brown. He stands at about the six-foot-four of an ectomorphic body type, many times looking quite emaciated even when he is eating consistantly. His hands are unusually large, even for his height, with long fingers and pink, burn-healed skin. His hair is quite long and curled, wild, and tangled - oftentimes with various objects stuck in it, such as sticks and leaves. His scraggled, poorly-trimmed beard hides a receeding chin and powerful jaw. His brow and features are lined with stress and age, a bit of silver appearing at his temples and peppered throughout his beard.

He is positively covered in scars; many times they completely replace the original skin. Noted scars include the tangled mass at and around his neck, including a burn-mark of linked chains; numerous small scars across his face, as if he'd been gnawed upon; a long, gashing scar across his abdomen; masses of scars about his ankles and arms; back, and sides, completely covered with the cruel, thick trails of a whip. There are many more, most inflicted upon himself while he had transformed. He has extensive, healed burn-marks across his entire body, where the skin is bright pink and tender. His left eye is missing, leaving a gaping hole.

The man is most noted for his coats; a sturdy one of forest green that was later destroyed by the werewolf Phaedra; one made of tanned hide and fur, made for him by DaisyDreams; and a longcoat of dark blue, with wide cuffs. His clothing is usually filthy, ill-fitting, and one tear away from falling apart, save for his sturdy boots. He has a long, trailing cloak of deer hide, another gift from the enigmatic Stood-as-One, and in turn gifted to Daisy.

He carries a rather evil-looking axe of obvious drow origin, being apparently carved from obsidian and laced through with spiderwebs of silver; the double-headed blade being in the shape of bat wings - the centerpiece, a spider who's legs form vicious spikes, and who's head is that of a grinning, horned skull. It's uncertain just how he managed to find it, though it is known that Lokelei aided him in some fashion, and that he found it somewhere in Audmathus's old haunt (see Cowardice).

Biske seemed, at first, to be more stable now that the werewolf curse afflicts him no longer, revealing himself to be rather quiet, meek man - certainly far from the sniveling, explosive man he once was. But due to the influx of formerly lost memories unleased by the curing, Biske seems to be growing more and more off. He has ceased sleep altogether, catching only a few catnaps now and then, and has become increasingly paranoid and unstable.

Lately the man has become almost completely mentally broken - a combined effort between his desire to atone for his past transgressions and Quincy Randall's death; his axe's desire for revenge against the drow; and the subtle, yet effective, efforts of Jirai, Suede Roschen, and (to a lesser extent) Audmathus. Yet he retains a resolute, honest love for the werewolf DaisyDreams - something that causes him a constant struggle, between fulfilling his self-imposed mission and mad ideals - and the quieter yearning to settle with the wolf-woman and their charge, the boy Korlin.
