Age: 21
Race: human
Occupation: knight
Allegiance: with lyra redfern
Physical Description: (p.b: garrett hedlund)
Dark chocolate brown hair that falls into his light gray eyes. Bradley is considered a rather good looking man, for he stands at a height of 6'4. A very good height for a warrior/knight. He is also quite tan for he had been working in the sun for a while, when he was younger. Bradley has muscles in his arms, though it does not stand out much, he does indeed have some strength in his upper body. He's rather bulky, if you count in the muscles he has on his abs. His hands are rather large and they are tanned from working outside. He has no imperfections on his back, but there is a small scar on his shoulder from sword practice when he was younger.
Personality:
Stubborn. Impatient. Calm. Cool. Bradley is not known to be a very happy person. He barely ever does smile and when he does, it doesn't last very long. He also is always cautious of everyone, thus making it hard to ever trust anyone. The only people he does trust is Lyra. When trusting someone, Bradley thinks that they are basically family. Otherwise, he trusts no one and with his past with Lyra, he believes that she is the only one he can ever trust. Even his father isn't someone he can trust so easily now. Bradley has learned to become very powerful with his sword skill, this making him quite prideful of himself sometimes. He is also a very stubborn because once he makes a decision, he sticks to it. With a cool look and a calm sounding voice, Bradley can be very persuasive. He also happens to be quite impatient sometimes when he wants something done. All in all, Bradley is quite a good actor and a good fighter.
History:
Born in the middle of April, Bradley was born to the Lady Violet and the Lord Charles. He was raised from childhood to be a knight, so he didn't have much of a choice. He lived in the same exact castle as Lyra, which is where they met. They've known each other since they were children and are quite close. As he grew older, at the age of five, he learned how to throw a knife. The boy knew of Lyra's troubles, being a spy at such a young age. During their nights together, he would comfort her, helping her cry all of her worries away. He knew that lyra was strong, which is why he did his best to keep that up. Bradley grew older and at the age of ten, he was already learning how to ride a horse and how to shoot arrows from it. His father was prideful of him and was always boasting about how wonderful he was. Which lead to an incident that caused Bradley almost to die. Because of his father's boastings, a few lords pushed their own sons to battle bradley, out of fun. He knew that they all enjoyed using them but he saw this was taking things too far. This was because they were using all real swords and it didn't seem as if they all cared if they died or not. It was all fun and games, his father had said. Well, anyways. In the end, bradley was beaten up really badly. He was sent to the castle's infirmary, for some doctors swore he was going to die. Well, as you all know, he didn't. As he grew stronger after that incident, he began to become more independent. Colder. He just stopped listening to his father completely. He fell into the king's graces and was able to get a trainer who trained him well.
During his teen year, around age thirteen and fifteen, he began to go out on missions. He wasn't a knight yet, so he was a page. He was hardworking and rather quiet. He was ordered around, alot. Quite a few people mistreated him, but he dealt with it. During the times he was away, the boy wrote letters to lyra, in hopes to keep their connection. It wasn't until he was promoted to be squire that he was able to travel with a knight to see what sort of things a knight did. Unfortunately, as soon as bradley became one at age seventeen, his former master died of sickness. Bradley then requested to be the knight of Lady Lyra, which is where he earned the right to become her knight and protector. During the times he wasn't with her, he attending jousting tournaments and hanging out with the other knights. He found very little friends in the area for most of them were all jerks and all they did think about was sleeping with women. It was almost depressing, really. He usually spent his time alone reading or just going off and relaxing. There are only a couple of people he would be pleased to say to be his friend, though there are not many.
He is now currently twenty one and is currently off on a mission with the Lady Lyra.
