Outfit 1
He wears a black bodysuit with space cut out for his wings to come out, it goes under most armors comfortably so he has it instead of normal clothes, on top of it he usually wears leather armor or on more casual days heavy clothing, it’s more habit than anything since it’s pretty outdated but he’s not stopping now

Outfit 2
Avrin’s official military uniform is uncomfortable and unwieldy but he is required to wear it for any public appearances, it is navy blue with gold trim and his rank insignia pinned over his heart and white combat boots that don’t assist at all

In-Depth
Avrin is very obsessed with order, it leads him to being sort of opposed naturally to anyone who lives a less regimented life than he does, which is of course most people. He is naturally quite grumpy as a result of this, but has a soft spot for people he views as positive influences and younger people, thus he is able to bond with them much easier than he is anyone else, taking on a friendly role with the first group and a mentor role for the second.

Quirks
Avrin has a slight verbal tic, he tends to always call people either sir or soldier, almost on reflex, it’s not that he doesn’t use their names it’s that he does it at the end of most sentences whenever he’s in a stressful situation. Interestingly he refers to Pierre as sir and the king as soldier.

Anything Else
Avrin is a man of faith, while his religion is not at all widely practiced, he is devout and details most of his personal items with the symbol of a shield, what he calls his patron spirit. Avrin does not believe in gods he instead believes that ideas and symbols carry their own identity, in the form of spirits, the ancient shield being the spirit of darkness, order, and safety, the spirits are viewed as partners and mentors rather than gods or creators and are given tribute through art and practice of crafts rather than worship.

Pierre (Mentor)
Originally, Arvin had been hired to train Pierre when he was younger to defend himself. His father, the King, hired him to escort Pierre to most places because a group of Guards, in the King’s words, “Couldn’t do half the job of protecting my boy as you could”. Obviously the King and Arvin are very close too, but Pierre loves Arvin with all his heart, viewing him more as a father perhaps more than he does the man who helped conceive to him.

Pierre very much trusts Arvin, so when one day, Arvin jokingly told Pierre if his wings were too dirty he’d be unable to fly, Pierre never once questioned it. Upon finding out it was untrue, he felt a little betrayed, but it was nothing major, so he let it go.

Fighting Style
Avrin in his younger years preferred a fast, energy intensive style, believing that any battle survived was a saving of resources, so throwing away your energy to live made sense, nowadays however he utilizes strong, slow maneuvers using his true potential for blocking and countering strikes, he uses his size, strength, and experience, as a factor to outperform opponents who otherwise would have a reasonable chance of beating him.

Weapons
As a young man he preferred lances and staffs, but with his modern style he has his warhammer, it’s about 75% as long as pierre is tall, and is wielded with both hands, the actual head of the hammer is a little lighter than is tradition but is compensated for by being made of sturdier material and having sharp edges, making it faster to swing and far more likely to cause injuries, in training he uses a giant wooden mallet to get the same effect without hurting pierre

Other
He has a small workman’s hammer contained in his military uniform used for minor self defense, he’s broken many a skull with it but only when he feels it is necessary

Education
Avrin has had even less education than the average hegal, despite his endless wisdom, he borders on illiterate, only learning to read so that he could study human texts on war, all of his knowledge of proper things comes from those he served with in the military who were happy to inform his perspective on the world, he grew up without any elders to teach him and the only order in his life that kept him moving forwards was self imposed.
