Name: Archer
Gender: Male
Breed: Belgian Malinois
Personality: Archer has conflicting personalities. On the one hand, he is a gentlemen, kind towards others and always putting himself last even if it's to complete strangers. He'll bow when introducing himself, he'll make polite remarks, and he seems almost too perfect... indeed, although it's not a mask, what lies underneath is far more dangerous. Due to his history, he is quite capable in the athletic department. But because he's been taken advantage of by
Sliver, as of late, he has been using these skills to murder. His job as an assassin has given him a deadly edge, making him seem emotionless and obedient, although he still keeps to his natural manners somewhat, even if the kindness is gone from his eyes. While he's in this mode of thinking, he's even seemed merciless at times, although cruelty is something that would never come natural to him.
History: Archer was born in London, England and was soon adopted by a well off gentlemen who took very good care of him. It was from this gentlemen that he learned how to be respectful and polite. Their friendship knew no bounds... that is, except that of his master becoming bankrupt when one of his stock investments crashed. Now with no money and almost no way to take care of himself and his loyal friend, Archer's master was forced to sell the belgian malinois in an attempt to give his dog a better life.
Archer was sold to licensed hunters, good men who were in need of an able hunting dog. This is where Archer gained all the knowledge of tracking and killing, and his physique peaked while he was with his new owners. Although he missed his old owner greatly, his new owners were kind and they kept the old collar his original master gave him, though it became worn over the months.
After a while, the game in the area began to dwindle, and the hunters decided that somewhere up north in Canada might suit their needs better, so they packed up and set sail on a ship, the standard form of transportation for the rural area of England they lived in. But something went horribly wrong...
With only a quarter of the way left to go, the ship caught fire from below the decks. None of the men on board made it, either because they died on the ship itself or because they became too exhausted trying to swim and just let themselves go. Archer, on the other hand, had been sculpted to endure, and he jumped off the ship and into the waters below.
Before meeting the ocean's surface, his head collided with an outlying piece of the ship which had not caught on fire yet. He managed to make it to the shores of the nearest land he could find: New York. Upon reaching the beach there, he was not only exhausted, but... he could no longer recall who he was. The bang to his head had jogged his mind so severely that he could not remember anything about his past, yet his personality somehow managed to stay somewhat in tact... the only thing he had to go by was his worn and torn up collar, which had his name etched on it: Archer.
Archer lived on the streets for a few weeks before being found by
Aim and
Chase, agents of Sliver. Upon meeting Sliver, Archer was taken under his wing and taught 'the right way of doing things'. His morals became almost completely reversed, and what's worse? He still can't remember who he is, so there's nothing he can do to stop the canine from brainwashing him...
Other: Adopted from Egg! All I changed design wise was adding the collar.
