Guts is a very tall man, about 6'9" or 6'10". He typically wears a long black cape, thick black armor over his shoulders, torso and legs, and tall black leather boots. His features are rugged, with a square jaw and eyes that have seen many dark and horrible things. Across his nose is a small scar, a defining and rather peculiar feature. His hair is short, black and spiky, and his left eye is also so dark, it appears black in color. His right eye appears closed, never seeming to open.
Guts usually keeps his left arm beneath his thick, black cloak. When it is visible, one will note that it is clearly false, made of metal attached above the elbow. The metal arm appears meticulously well made, certainly the work of a professional welder. If one were to look closely, the arm seems bit bulky for some reason, as though it has other devices attached or within. His right hand and lower arm are wrapped in old, somewhat filthy bandages which are probably rarely changed or removed. His skin is tanned, thick and rough, as you would expect a hard-working man's to be. His body is well toned and quite muscular. One notable set of features are the scars that adorn Guts' entire body, some of them quite long and deep, denoting the severe life of a warrior that Guts has led from boyhood. On the back of his neck is a strange brand that looks similar to a figure eight with a vertical line through it. It looks like a mystic, ancient rune of some sort. Unless one is familiar with supernatural or demon lore, it is unrecognizeable.
Strapped across Guts' back is a huge something-or-other, unidentifiable as long as it remains hidden beneath his cloak. When the cloak is off, it is revealed to be a massive 7-foot sword, which Guts carries with him wherever he goes, usually hidden in public. The weapon's great size often makes Guts appear awkward among a group of warriors with normal or short swords, as his sword is actually bigger than him (he's only 6'9"). His sword is absolutely monstrous not just in length, but in weight and thickness of the blade; it is frequently compared by observers to a heap of raw iron. The weapon is so huge, it would naturally be silly to imagine a man trying to swing such a thing in battle--it would be like arming oneself with a tree. However, Guts has known little more to life than wielding a sword and taking the lives of his opponents, and his heavy life-long training serves him well. Though he may appear awkward carrying such a massive weapon, he certainly seems capable of wielding it. Neither does he have the appearance of an amateur. No one would guess such a scarred, bitter, battle-hardened man was only 24. One look at his war-weary features would tell almost anyone... he's an expert swordsman.
Equipment:
Big Sword - His huge sword does 2 damage, adds +3 to his Fire for damage, cannot be stolen, and has 3 slots for customization.
Breastplate - His armor adds +3 Earth and has 3 slots for customization.
Arm Crossbow - This repeating crossbow is built into his mechanical arm. It is treated as a Firearm with a Fire of 9 and 12 arrows. He has unlimited reloads, but he must take an action to reload it completely. Uses Archery to hit. Cannot be stolen.
