Bantyr Hasib - paper doll, reference sheet

Bantyr is a current sovereign head of state in a Hasib monarchy, enjoys the highest authority among Getah People. He personally commits in affairs of: internal security, national defense and war, law enforcement, national budget and taxes. He is highly respect for his charisma and outstanding numeracy.

Bantyr’s greatest hobby is music, rhythms and singing. In private he sings along to his beloved three stringed bass lute. For social occasions he prefers a drum. He is talented and he is trained, so his performances are pleasing, thrilling and memorable.

Clothes

Bantyr wears garment like other Getah man do. Mostly his height and charisma make him noticeable and on occasions his ceremonial robe.

He prefers leather and tiny patterns. Usually he wears ravens feathers, because raven is his blood line,  thousand-year-old totem. He also likes necklet made of rubies and tiny woods.

Getah aristocracy for formal occasion should wear any color but black. Bantyr follows this tradition wearing: maroon, wool jacket with trim, cuff and shoulder straps, trousers appropriate for riding a horse and short riding boots. Although there is no regular army among Getah and no military uniform, garment like this is worn by these who are in National Guard.

On events that matter to a whole society, e.g. aristocracy marriage, accepting new National Guards soldiers, Bantyr wears full dress which means having a rapier at his side and a heavy, wool, train robe on his back. The robe's embroidery is silver willow branches and gold daylily, some threads are made of actual ore. Another decoration are ravens feathers.

Bantyr’s casual garment is: short, leather jacket accompanied by fancy, leather trousers, sleeveless top with painting or cut-out. In early spring or late autumn he adds wool poncho with lining, in winter - bear fur coat. For a leisure he has long, jacquard dress.

Personality and quirk
Besides being self-confidant Bantyr possesses great peace of mind, which makes him a successful ruler, pleasant companion and a good liar if needed. Although being quite understanding toward others and ready to help, he is also ready to do or order dreadful things if finds someone to deliberately and notoriously disobey.

Bantyr value more success of vision of Getah society and their country Vapama over his own convenience and whims. So sure ”wine, women, and song”, but not at other Getah expense. This attitude is usually appreciated and one may hear it in a way people pronounce “Your Majesty” while addressing him.

Bantyr hears it too. Though deep in his heart he is always a bit unpleased. Vapamian “Your Majesty” is Advernian "Your Highness". Day by day independent Getah talk to him as he were, like past times Dukes, a subject in a country that he looks down on.

Sum-up: self-confidant, calm, scrupulous, considerate

^{Sometimes he is called: arrogant, stony-hearted, rigorous, naive - perhaps because being a king magnifies traits.}
