Name: Demetrius 'Deme' Greyfur
Gender: Male
Age: 84 Seasons (21 years)
Species: Hare
Personality: Demetrius is a generally lively person, being a hare. He is also fiercly loyal and takes offense if people think little of him because of his height.
He is generally quiet and very jumpy, prone to being highly suspicious of new people, not surprising considering his past. Despite his jumpy and suspicious behaviour towards newcomers,Demetrius is very trusting towards people he knows well. He's extremely good at making on the spot decisions, which is what makes him so good at being a leader to the Koulevi Tribe.
Appearance: Demetrius has white-grey fur that covers the whole of his body, except for one black stripe that runs from the very tip of his nose all the way over his head, down his spine and to his tail.
He wears a green velvet vest-top and a belt at his waist in which his sword hangs. His eyes are black as coal and when he doesn't trust you or looks at you suspiciously, you really feel as though he looks into your soul.
All together, Demetrius has both a proud and deflated look about him. He is proud of his Tribe and leads them well, but the years he spent aboard the Vermins' ship is still fresh in his mind as though it was a week ago.
Allegiance: Kouveli Tribe and Redwall
Weapons: As most of the Kouveli Tribe, Demetrius uses a long sword as his main weapon, he is also trained with a bow and several other weapons.
Position: Kouveli Tribe Leader
History: Demetrius was born to a small modest family of three children. His parents raised him and his two sisters away from the rest of the world, not for any particular reason, just because they prefered to.
When Demetrius was 40 Seasons Old, some vermin came and captured his family and him. His parents tried to protect him and his sisters, and his father was killed in the struggle. For twelve seasons, he and his sisters were worked as slaves on the ship of the vermin that had captured them. Their mother had tried to help her children escape and was killed in the first season. Then during Demetrius' 15th season on the ship, the Vermin invaded a Squirrel Settlement and about 30 or so squirrels were taken on board.
Demetrius was given the task of feeding the captives and through doing this he stuck up a friendship with a young squirrel called Sarin. Together, along with a few other squirrels and Demetrius' sisters, they plotted their escape together. Finally, after 12 seasons of planning, they had every last detail settled and one night as they were docked in a small settlement called Heelios they put their plan into action.
Demetrius waited until the guard was asleep then snuck over and stole the keys, he undid the lock to the Squirrels' cells and they all tip-toed on deck. Luckily everyone, save the one asleep guard, was at the local tavern that night. Even so, as they crossed the gangplank there were only Demetrius, his two sisters and Sarin left to cross. Demetrius' youngest sister, Katrina, went first and as she crossed the gangplank she fell over with a scream, clutching her chest. An arrow was sticking out of it.
Demetrius had forced Sarin to follow the rest of the squirrels, they had been caught. Demetrius and his other sister, Anna, ran down the gangplank and faced the four vermin who had returned from the pub early. Demetrius' sister was killed in the fight and Demetrius was captured and thrown into the cells he had rescued the squirrels from only an hour or so before.
From his cell, Demetrius could hear the Warlord of the ship, Cylic Flametail, yelling himself hoarse at the guard and then Demetrius began to worry as Flametail made his plans. The vermin were to set the shit alight and push it to sea, with Demetrius still on it, then go and capture the squirrels and sell them on as slaves. From what Demetrius heard and understood, some of the Vermin had caught up with the squirrels and about half the squirrels had been killed, the others had escaped.
Demetrius waited until the last minute for his plan. He chewed through the wood in his door and waited. When he smelt smoke he crawled through the hole, ran up the stairs and leapt overboard. He swam back to shore and from there made his plans. He would get off this island, that was a start, then he would avenge everyone that had ever been in his family...
His parents and sisters, they had all been slaughtered by the Vermin.
Demetrius wandered through the woods for two seasons, making a bit of money here and there by doing odd jobs for people, eventually he had enough to buy himself a sword and still has it to this day. On the third season of Demetrius' wanderings, he came across a group of three hares. They were fleeing from the Vermin too and had all lost family members to them. Together the four hares decided to stand together and the Kouveli Tribe was formed.
Over the next few seasons, rabbits and hares joined the Kouveli tribe until they had about 30 members. They travelled all over the world, fighting, learning to fight, and all in preperation for the final fight they knew would one day come, the fight against the Vermin.
They travelled all over the mainland before stumbling upon an abbey, Redwall Abbey. The hares entered the abbey and upon doing so, Demetrius recognised the Poisonmaster immediately... It was Sarin. The Kouveli tribe remained with the animals at Redwall abbey as long as they could allow themselves before leaving, but they vowed that they would return if Redwall needed help. Before leaving, Demetrius went to visit his friend Sarin one last time. He told the Squirrel, "When you need us. We'll be where our adventure together began, old friend."
The Kouveli Tribe travelled to the coast and from there they purchased a boat and sailed east. They found the ruins of the town that had once been Heelios. They searched the whole island, it was all in ruins. The Vermin had returned and in their anger destroyed the whole island... All because some squirrels had escaped...
Demetrius claimed the island as the new base of the Kouveli and they set up camps all over the island, which Demetrius named Katrianna, after the two sisters that had lost their lives there for the squirrels to gain their short-lived freedom. Rabbits and Hares continually joined the rains of the Kouveli, learning to fight and soon they became a large community, made completely of rabbits and hares, with Demetrius Greyfur at its head and Redwall Abbey as its ally.

RP Sample:
Demetrius ducked one of Harri's swings and parried another. Harri was a new rabbit in the Kouveli Tribe and was learning to fight. "You're too predictable Harri!" Demetrius laughed and with a flick of his wrist disarmed the young rabbit and sent his sword flying several yards to the left.
"You need to put power and speed into you sword movements, use it like an extension of your arm. Or you'll never slay a single vermin." Demetrius smiled at the rabbit, "I was once like you... I couldn't fight a mouse, let alone a Fox or Rat, but now look at me! You could be our next leader if I step down, all you need is practice." Demetrius walked over, picked up Harri's sword and held the hilt to him, "One more time?"
