Virgil gets up early in the morning and yawns as he scratches his face. The stubble is growing in a bit more but it doesn't grow on the scars. He rubs them for a moment and scratches behind his partial left ear. He grunts to himself for a moment as he reflects. He isn't ashamed of them and he doesn't consider himself a victim. It's more of a penance. He slowly gets up and gets his pants on as he goes to a bowl of water across the room. He stops and looks at his reflection in the water. He thinks to himself for a moment, "This is what you used to look like on the inside. Now you wear your sins for the world to see." He chuckles to himself and splashes his face with a handful of water. "Well, let's make something productive today."

After getting dressed he reaches over towards a table expecting something to be there. Grasping out at nothing he just shakes his head and sighs."I really need to get a new hat..." He then looks over towards the scorpion venom sacs. He gets his alchemy gear set up and begins the process of processing the venom.

Personal Information


Appearance: 6'2", 155 lbs. Red hair shaved on the sides, short on top, and long in the back. (It's a mullet.) Copper-toned skin, yellow eyes, and scars all up and down his arms and torso. He has a few scars that run along his face and part of his left ear missing.


Personality: He is very jovial. Always willing to share a story, a drink, or a scrap. He works hard to help those he considers a friend. He enjoys gambling and has been known to lose his money on betting and drinking. While not necessarily quick to anger, he tries to keep it in check on the rare occasion for fear of going back to his old ways.

Biography:Virgil Wright wasn't anything particularly special growing. He had red hair, yellow eyes, and copper-toned skin. He grew up in a small nowhere village raised by his two parents, Wyatt and Bridget on a wheat farm. When he was about 17 he grew tired of living on a farm so he packed a bag and left one night without even saying goodbye. He spent time on the road and picked up a few things here and there until he met up with a group of bandits led by a man named Aiken. He traveled with them for a couple of years. His brusque demeanor made most of the others keep a distance from Virgil. It suited him just fine, he wasn't there to make friends. He wasn't really sure what he was there for, that was until one day they stopped a cart belonging to a Raccoon named Reiki. Aiken didn't think Reiki had anything worth stealing, he only wanted loot that was sharp, shiny, or edible. Reiki was hauling different kinds of alchemical supplies. Aiken was thinking about killing the man but he told him he would be able to help him if he spared his life. Virgil didn't know why but he stepped forward and said to give the old man a shot. That chance encounter would change his life. Reiki was an alchemist with a specialty in explosives. After getting to know him and see what he could do, Virgil knew why he had stayed for so long. He began to train under Reiki who had made good on his promise to Aiken. Things were going well until one day a job went wrong. They were attempting to break into a vault when Reiki betrayed them. When the vault was emptied Reiki tossed in a bomb and closed it before Aiken and Virgil were able to get out. Aiken died in the blast. Virgil wasn't so lucky. The blast had left his arms and torso covered in scars. Many scars went across the left side of his face from up to his ear where a piece can be seen missing. He woke up a week later in prison, where he spent a number more years doing hard labor. Finally 10 years after leaving his home, he was once again free to roam. Looking for work but having a hard time finding anything other than guard work he happened across a young lady while he was enjoying a drink in a bar in a small town called Thalia Village. Virgil hadn't ever really thought about joining a familia. And only passing through he had never met the Goddess Thalia before. She said she was looking for people for a theater group and asked Virgil if he would be interested. He said he wasn't much of a performer and he didn't see much opportunities to blow anything up in the theater. She told him she could always use a pyrotechnics engineer. Normally, he would have told her to get lost but something about the way she talked to him was different than others. She wasn't afraid of him but was rather friendly as if she knew him for a long time. So he made a wager. He told her that he'd flip a coin and if she won, he would join her. He finished his drink, flipped his coin, the lady yelled out heads, and his jaw dropped as it landed on the ground showing heads. That is how he met the goddess, Thalia. Since then he has been a part of the Familia. Over the past year he has became less angry and much friendlier. And while sometimes it bothers him when people are afraid of his scars he knows he wouldn't be where he is without the events that caused them.
