Character Description
Appearance: Maric did not stand out among his Saiyans brethren. He could lord over the Tuffles of Plant with a height of 180 centimeters, though that put him at fairly average by Saiyan standards. He was relatively muscular, with tall black hair and dark eyes. His face possessed a scar across the left check, earned in battle on a foreign world. The only clothes he's ever cared to wear is the green armor of the lower class warrior.
History: For the first 26 years of Maric's life, he was indistinguishable from the rest of his kind. He grew up among the lower classes, but was quickly orphaned by the war. Upon enlisting with the Saiyan army, he found his new family in his squadron, though soon enough the open hostilities between the Saiyans and Tuffles were begin to cool off, leaving Maric without much of a place in life. Upset with the so called peace, and finding himself bored more oft than not, he and his squamates left the army, and took to mercenary work.
And so at the age of 19 Maric found himself at the head of a small mercenary band, killing a host of aliens on unknown planet for so called warlords and tyrants. At first they told themselves that they'd try and stay out of affairs relating to Saiyans, being good Saiyans themselves, though eventually the pay was too much to pass up, and so they disregarded their former identities completely, and became loyal to nothing more than their next purse.
They were a rowdy bunch, with little sense and even less respect. They happily betrayed their clients if it meant a bit of extra pay from the other side, and had no qualms with slaughtering the weak and innocent. All were victims to them, and they delighted in their business. Maric was perhaps the worst of them all. Loud, crass, a horrid drunkard; he was a slave to his base instincts, and likely would have thrown his own men to the wolves if it would buy him another drink.
When conflict arose on Plant proper, word eventually reached Maric, though without a paying customer on either side he assumed the conflict would pass them by. That was until they took a job in a backwater half a galaxy away, Maric found himself on the wrong end of a beating. Separated from his squad, Maric found himself pooled into a deep black ocean, his leg engaged in the jaw of an aquatic beast he couldn't hope to fend off.
As the water filled his lungs began to see the light, and assumed his time was up. This light was different however; a light so powerful it began to burn, even in the ice cold depths Maric found himself in. This was no angel come to take him to otherworld; this was a vision to fight on. The golden light soon turned to golden locks, and before Maric stood a legend he had near forgotten. When he awoke he found himself pulled out of the water.
His team mates had finally managed to find him, and rescued him from below. But when he saw them again he felt nothing like he had before; the desire to raid and plunder the stars had been replaced by a different kind of fervor. He pushed past them, hastily making his way to his pod. When they asked where he was going, he simply stated that "The Legend needs me."
