Saiyge Merkin (he/they) is a character played by Jayne (they/she/it) in the Hell to Pay one-shot. He is a harengon rune knight fighter, and a shipwright.
Description
Saiyge is a 7'2 Bunny-Man with primarily brown fur. They have a big gash scar on their left eye, and have a replacement magical eye in the left socket, with light gray runic symbols in place of where any pupil might be. They are also wearing quite worn and noticeably old commoners clothes under their serpent scale armor, and have a very magic shield and a sword of which looks like that from a crystal dragon. Saiyge is the biggest dumbass you've ever met in your entire life, when met with a problem, they will hit it with their sword until something happens or fights them about it. No thoughts head empty. They will protect people wherever they can but do not fuck with them or their friend's people and thanks. They also love his baby sister, she's very dear to him.Backstory
Saiyge grew up with not much, truly. It was only him and their 17 younger siblings doing their best to get enough money so everyone could be safe and have their needs met. It was because of this need that Saiyge found out they were good in a fight, at least good enough to be able to get some coin off of it, and not long after Saiyge became a mercenary. They would end up in many places far from home on jobs, often going across waters for whatever work needed to be done, and sending most of his spoils back home to their siblings. But then his youngest sibling, Elanor, got an illness that no doctor nor cleric nor wizard could figure out what it was or if there was a cure for it, so Saiyge started looking for alternative answers. Eventually Saiyge stumbled their way into making a deal with a devil, where they would swap whatever remaining years/vitality they had with Elanor's, and additionally offering to be one of the devil's fighters, or generals, or whatever, once they died, to sweeten the pot as you will, and so their deal was struck, and Saiyge was also given a boon and some coin, with which he bought a large plot of land and hired local workers to help build a large house, both for all their siblings, and any folk who might need a place to stay or some food, so no one ever has to worry like Saiyge and his siblings once had too.Trivia
- Saiyge has a +16 to initiative w/advantage, and a 26 AC! Also during the one shot, Saiyge's INT went from an 8 to a 5 in like, 10 minutes.
