Goodbye, Stormblood, thanks for all the good times! Here’s to even more in Shadowbringers! 

[final-aria-fantasy]

Say hello to my new nobleman son, Andelaux! (last name still undecided.) He’s the freshly appointed head of house/Viscount of a lesser noble house, after tragedy took not only his father but his older brother, leaving him, who had been out working as a temple knight up to now, to suddenly take up mantle completely unprepared. I’m excited to see where his story will lead! More info and pictures and all that fun stuff to come in the future, but I was too excited to not show off my new minty fresh boy

[final-aria-fantasy]

Meet Andelaux de Mairoux, young Viscount and recently appointed Lord of House Mairoux. I’ll make a carrd and LFRP and all that fun stuff with him in time so you can all learn more about him, but wanted to show off some of his looks and his name now that it’s been figured out :)

💓 - A song that embodies the muse’s love for another♪ - A song that my muse would dance to (first for Cetira, second for BOTH Manny and Ande)

💓 - A song that embodies the muse’s love for another

Have some Cetira, yo. It’s more in the lyrics then the video. 

♪ - A song that my muse would dance to

For Emanuel: 

Again, he’s not much of a party type, but I think something like this would at least get his head bobbing. 

For Andelaux: 

Honestly put anything form Kazaky here and it’d work. 

and yes, Andelaux can in fact dance in heels, for those who may be wondering now.

👨 - What is your muse’s relationship like with their father? Is it good, bad, or complicated? (Your choice on Muse! - fiendofearth)

*rolls random to pick 3 to answer with* Kaiko, Emanuel, and Andelaux

Unfortunately Kaiko lost her father when she was younger and the imperials attacked and destroyed most of her tribe. She remembers M’raesho as being a very kind, loving nunh who enjoyed telling fun tales to the children and being quite the skilled hunter. She would give anything to be able to see him just once more.

Emanuel and his father got along well enough. He made his family proud as a good student at the Magitek academy and even more so when he got a good job working for the empire. He can’t recall too many times he had issues with his father, though the relationship was probably a bit distant as both were busy with their own things in life. As far as his father knows, ‘Emile’ is presumed dead, and this is a fact that Emanuel often feels quite guilty over as he has no way of knowing how that must have affected him and the rest of his family.

Andelaux and his father were pretty distant, he spent much of his older teens and young 20s working as a temple knight, and growing up before that he was typically ignored for the most part as his older brother was focused upon and groomed to take over the house once his father no longer could. As such, he didn’t have much of a relationship with the former Mairoux House Lord, and while he does mourn his and his older brother’s passing, he isn’t really as broken up about it as some may expect. He doesn’t have many good nor bad tales to really share in regards to his father.

((thanks for the ask, @fiendofearth!))

Seaweed: Does your muse like the water? Can your muse swim? What temperature does your muse like the water to be? Hornet: How patient is your muse? Are they easily perturbed? What sets them off the easiest? :3

((I’ll answer for Emanuel and Andelaux, give my boys some love.))

Seaweed: Does your muse like the water? Can your muse swim? What temperature does your muse like the water to be?

Emanuel doesn’t mind water, though it’s not necessarily something he cares about one way or the other. He can swim well enough to survive and if he had to pick a temperature he’d prefer something lukewarm. 

Andelaux quite enjoys water, though most of his experience with it of late is bathing and drinking, since he doesn’t quite get many chances to go out where it’s warm enough to actually swim in. As far as actually being able to swim goes he’s not very good at it, simply because of lack of experience. He loves a nice warm shower, if not a little on the too hot side. 

Hornet: How patient is your muse? Are they easily perturbed? What sets them off the easiest? 

Emanuel is an incredibly patient and even headed man, he isn’t easily ruffled and if anything prefers that things stay calm around him both within himself and from those around him, as he can get stressed out quite easily when tensions run high. If anything were to set him off easily it’d be anything involving his past, either people actually from it or just having to be reminded about it or being forced to talk about it if he’s not ready or willing.

In general Andelaux is generally a fairly easy going man, though he does have a bit of a quick temperament with certain things. People being rude to him or those he cares about, seeing misjustice being done around him, or general signs of danger usually can put him into protector mode pretty fast and he can get a bit snarly once that happens.

((Thanks @the-ruby-rogue <3 Sorry for the wait!))

13.   What kind of education did you have? For any character of your choice! (catte-bard)

Cetah: She was taught by her older sisters in her clan as far as her conjury goes and various other life skills she knows, but anything about fashion or baking or just general knowledge of the world has all been self taught through reading, being taught by friends along the way, or just palin old trial and error. 

Kaiko: Her life skills are all the result of many hard life lessons over the years, so for the most part self taught. As far as her fighting skills go she had a man who trained her in the way of red magic for a brief period of time, at least until she understood the general basics of it, and anything she’s mastered from that point to develop into her swordmage style of fighting has also been self taught.

Emanuel: He learned his skill with magitek through his years at the Magitek Academy, past that he’s very self taught, having read more books then he could even number at this point. 

Andelaux: He had all the best tutors/instructors in both combat and knowledge over the years being a noble son. 

Rose: Her crafting skills are all self taught, her fighting abilities were taught to her when she was younger and honed upon further through many years of personal training. 

Hitsu: All self taught, both combat skills as well as any general life skills. 

Kihruh: Her arcanist abilities were taught to her by an instructor, how they managed to keep her interest long enough to actually teach her is anyone’s guess, though a lot of what she does now is probably based on her own efforts and love of the art then really retaining any actual knowledge taught to her. As for her other...knowledges...uh...I’m pretty sure that’s all on her, man. If someone taught her all that crazy I’m afraid of what kinda person they are.

((Thanks @catte-bard!))
