【 General 】
► Full Name: Rothalion Xaeryn [Roth-al-Eon][ Zz-Air-in] ► Nickname(s): Rot, Roth, Ro, Warrior/Warrior of Light ► Age: 29 yrs ► Gender: Male | He/Him ► Race: Elezen | Duskwight ► Sexuality: Homosexual ► Class: Dragoon | Azure Dragoon ► Occupation: Adventurer | Warrior of Light ► Residence: Ishgard
【 Personality 】
► Virtues: Rothalion is fairly patient for a warrior of his status. Often he is kind and warm, lending a helping hand to any who require aid no matter the magnitude of the task. As the Warrior of Light, Rothalion always tries to do what’s right and what will benefit everyone fairly. His ambitions go far, ever evolving as he pushes himself further towards the last lofty goal. ► Flaws: Often oblivious, things can fly over Rothalion’s head and this fact has usually had some dire consequences in his adventures. Having spent much of his life silent and avoiding others, he finds it hard to keep conversation and sometimes speaks out of place. Though patient, he’s also heavily reactive and jumps to conclusions at times when a more thoughtful approach is recommended; he often needs friends to slow him down to consider their options first. He doesn’t trust easy, as experience has taught him not to - if he seems to react more open with a new person there’s always something else going on that leads him to do so and it doesn’t mean he will trust them with more than the barest of chores. ► Likes: Fruit, tea (iced or hot), sparring/training, good company, cool weather, nature (especially locations with plenty of colour), thunderstorms, affection (platonic or romantic, he loves it all as he’s fairly touch-starved) ► Dislikes: Machinery, loneliness, silence, racism, politics (just let him hit something) ► Ambitions: Peace. He wants to see a world where it doesn’t feel like the world will implode on itself at every turn; he realizes life will never be perfect but if future generations can live without fear, especially existential fear like many do in his time, he will feel his life well lived. Until then he refuses to stop fighting. ► Fears: Losing those he loves, and failure. He’s faced many horrible, terrifying beasts and people and will likely face more still in his future, but its the risks to people he cares dearly for that strikes him with dread. He’s lost people before and it never gets easier... he’ll put his life on the line to at least protect them. His fear of failure stems most of all from his fear of losing those close to him, as if he fails there’s nothing left to stand between his loved ones and whatever it was that threatened the entirety of the Source. ► Strengths: Combat, the occasional problem-solving, auditory senses and spacial awareness ► Weaknesses: Socialization, politics, having nothing to do and too much time to think
【 Physical 】
► Height: 5′2″ (Yes he’s the shortest elezen) ► Weight: 117 lbs ► Build: Slender and lightly toned ► Eye Colour: Bright green matching bangs ► Hair Colour: Dark purple with pastel yellow-green bangs ► Skin Tone: Lavender ► Distinguishing Marks: Scars cover his chest, stomach and back. Few will chance to see them, though sometimes if looked closely at one can catch a few on his exposed shoulder.
【 Skills 】
► Weapon: Anything from lances and spears to halberd. His current arm is the Exarchic spear ► Abilities: Wielding the power of the dragon, Rothalion is able to perform great leaps to enter or exit battle. His arms are enhanced by the strength of the dragon, dealing extra damage and heavy bleeding when harnessed. Magic granted by dragon power generally takes the form of spikes, fire and red or blue energy. ► Physical Strengths: Mobility through jumps and extra physical prowess to match the dragons that he draws power from. He wields a lance with speed and grace hard to match by a common lancer and due to the dragon’s ferocity he is rarely one to stop until his foe is dead or flees. Slightly more durable than many but still susceptible to injury. ► Physical Weaknesses: Arms and heavier armour renders him slower than many other melee classes if he doesn’t utilize his jumps to escape and dangerous blow. None of his arms are meant for ranged combat, meaning he is always up close and personal with opponents which makes him more susceptible to heavy blows. Not being one with skills at magic beyond that which he is granted through the dragon makes him vulnerable if healing is necessary and no healer is on the field.
