well if you guys want i could try and have Faust lead us in but i'm notoo sure on that he's not much of a leader type.the way i made my character is that i wanted him to be a bit mundane but kind of caring about others well being kind of blunt kind of a take charge type guy who's a bit of a loner but is not afraid to help out. He's also not too trusting of other that's why you guys aren't his friends but acquaintances.

Bio: Riven was born silent and struggled to breath, her parents did not give up hope and begged every healer in their tribe to save their daughter but it was to no avail. At the end of the day it would seem that Riven would die but the mother did not give up, she alone climbed to the top of a hill with a single cherry blossom tree and begged the guardian of life to preserve her daughters own life. The guardian heard the plead of the woman and granted the child a second chance at life and as a sign of the guardian's blessing the babies raven black hair turned white as snow.
Years later the child grew into a healthy young woman but the tides of peace had changed in her tribe and was thrust into war. All the children of her tribe were force to train in combat and expected to one day fight the war that the old men of her tribe started. Riven had excelled in the art of war and was the poster child of her village, all the children wanted to be like her and all the parents wished that she was their child. Riven never let the praise of the tribe go to her head and protected the weaker children from any bullies and taught them to stand for themselves.
One day everything changed when her group was ordered to join the fray. Riven held her head high and lead her group into battle War was not like training she had to fight with all her power just to stay alive. After what seemed like days the fighting finally stopped, Riven looked around holding her now broken blade to see that all her friends had fallen and she was the only one that survived. After weeping for days over her lost friends she returned to her village and was received as a hero and they chanted for their blessed child. Nightmares would soon plague her mind seeing the ones that she used to protect dying one by one screaming for her to rescue them like she done so many times before. Months had passed and she finally built up the courage to ask the real reasons why they were at war, her answer was for land and for pride. Riven was outraged, how could these men sit here and talk of pride when they send children to fight their war for them. The young warrior had enough and decided she could no longer live with herself while her friends rot in the earth because of her she was not strong enough to save them. But when she was about to take her own life with her blade the guardian of life appeared before her eyes.
"You wish to make amends for the sins of your people, child?"
"yes..."
"Then go out and use the gifts I have blessed you with, protect the lives of the innocent and burn away the wicked ones that hold no value to life...I shell walk this path with you, you are never alone child."
The guardian vanished but Riven could still feel her presents, to disgusted to return to her corrupted village she left with the armor she were and the broken blade that she planned on taking her life with, she knew one day she would return and purify her home but the time was not now.
I'm reminded of Tales of Vesperia.. One of the characters used a giant sword in the very beginning, but when they tried to attack something their sword broke.. they started using the sword like a hammer which for some reason... made their active weapon Hammers and Maces, lol. Of course, later on you could repair the broken sword and use it as a main weapon.
