Physical Desc.:5'9, brown hair, blue eyes, scrawny build, tanned
Trait you are more easily covered by a shield
Bio: Ashtartyaton came from a middle class family. Peasents, if you will. The family occupation was mainly a small bakery in a small town. However, Ashtartyaton wasn't one to sit and do something that didn't benefit anyone, besides short-term help. Taking note of Carthage's military might, he joined the military in hopes of a better goal than a simple bakery chef. As a child, Ashtartyaton was always energetic and playing war games with the other children. That kind of horse-play grew on him.

"Prepare Javelins!" orders the commander

I ready my Javelin. When the commander orders to release, I'll try to hit the unit's commander, aiming for a wound hit. (A commander's agonized scream might make the enemy nervous) I quickly pull out my close range weapon, if not ordered by the commander to use a Javelin.

you brace and the Principes smash into you, you would have fallen back if it wasn't for the person behind you, but you step on something and take a quick glance down to see a dying Libyan with a javelin in his chest. you look back and stab one of them in the neck, and he falls over, but another takes his place and blocks your hit.
