Description A sketch of Ardon from The Sword Eater (tentative title).

Name: Ardon

Notes About His Name: "Ardon" means "one who swallows" in the Ancient Language. He received the name when he was just starting to become known as "The Sword Eater". No one knows his real name and he doesn't have a last name.

Alternative Name: The Sword Eater

Age: 1,263, but appears to be 16. He is very proud of his age.

Race: He'll say "confused". He is human by birth, but after eating so many swords, he stopped aging, developed enhanced senses, and acquired some demon qualities (like pointed ears, sharp teeth, and a keen sense of smell for magic). Nowadays, most people just label him as a type of demon.

Personality: Ardon is hyper, friendly, and fairly competitive. He tends to react without thinking things, but he has on occasion surprised those around him with his insight and knowledge. Ardon is one to speak exactly what is on his mind. He is not at all shy about the fact that he is the Sword Eater and is confident in his skill. It is not uncommon for him to place bets on his own skills. Ardon is also known for getting into plenty of trouble in his life, particularly when obtaining a new sword is involved...

Hobbies: Ardon enjoys sword play, researching magical and demon swords as well as sword techniques, treasure hunting for magical and demon swords (yes, he's obsessed).

Unique Abilities: He can absorb the power of magical and demon swords by eating them. Using swords made of Morph Crystal, he can later summon those swords he has already eaten. He also has enhanced senses and he can smell magical energy, helping him track down magical or demon swords. 

Talents: Ardon excels at sword technique, having studied it since he was very young. Even now he practices and studies daily. Ardon knows a a few spells as well, being particularly proficient at forming contracts and tracking items (the latter for use in case he should ever misplace one of his Morph Crystal Swords). He also knows a lot about the Ancient Language, including some things that were lost to the rest of the world over the years. He gives all of his swords new names in the Ancient Language.

Weakness: Ardon tends to speak and act before thinking things through, which sometimes lands him in a lot of trouble. His love of magical and demons swords has resulted in him making poor choices and getting him into trouble with both people and demons. This obsession also makes him easy to manipulate if one by chance has a magical sword on hand. Or if one doesn't, they can try appealing to his competitive side.

Favorite Food: Fruit and vegetable salad. He is allergic to a lot of foods (peanuts, milk, red meat, shellfish, and tree nuts), so he is limited to what he can eat.

Prized Possession: Hands down, his Crystal Morph Swords. Ardon never lets them out of his sight and even sleeps with them. In addition, he has placed special spells on them to track them if they ever should become lost or stolen as well as a spell that makes them usable only to himself.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I am so glad you like it. I used new pencils with smaller lead this so that may have helped.
