Who is Fdryx (probably misspelt but oh well) like what's his purpose?

no no you spelled it correctly! lets get into it :)

f’dryx’s purpose?

narratively, f’dryx’s role in the story is as a fallen hero (go figure. i seem to love those). he doesn’t really start off as a hero tho ngl. he kinda just starts off as an idiot lol

he was a regular guy who ended up in the wrong situation. unlike alan or evan, who fit more of the “chosen one” category, f’dryx could have been anyone. he wasn’t fated for this. he wasn’t described in a prophecy. he wasn’t born for this role, neither was he special. he was just your average drunken fool who made mistakes and lives life. i think that’s what i like about his story the most.

in every way, f’dryx was unspecial. that’s what makes his descent as probably one of the worst villains in elayza since hilbert so iconic to me. he was a regular joe who got mixed up with the wrong people, got tested too far, and reverted back to his animalistic desire to survive. THATS why he ends up getting “chosen” later on. not immediately. not fated for it. lemme see if i can find the drafted scene where it’s described to him on “why me?” (why him?)

you say you [redacted] yourself out, f’dryx, but that is what i loved about you. you degraded yourself, accepted absolute humiliation, tore your soul and esteem apart and stomped it into the dirt, all for a chance to survive. you sold your dignity to survive. and you don’t even know why you wanted to! you don’t even want to survive! you don’t even want to live! you accepted that you had no purpose and yet you still fought to keep your meaningless life! that sacrifice… that self sacrifice… that mindless drive to live… i wanted it. i needed it. and now, i have it. because now i have you. you are mine, f’dryx. we are bound by eternity.  - CoE [DRAFT], P

i’m not gonna spoil who is talking to him in this scene, but that’s the bare bones essence of his purpose.

thanks for the ask, sol!

How would Fdryx react to being handed a piece of a Snickers bar by a toddler? Would he like Snickers?

bro is gobbling that thing up like it’s his last meal.

and yes, he would adore it so much, every day after he got that one snickers, he would cry himself to sleep for not having an infinite supply

thanks for the ask, sol!

What is your favourite Fdryx moment?

hi sol! f’dryx specifically? probably the entire arcane world scene in P. holy shit. holy shit.

breaking out of the arcanic prison?the entire battle sequence?? the confrontation with THAT ONE GUY???

but in terms of not just about f’dryx—then his time on the vessel, or lost at sea, or the entire island arc. those are so mwah.

OR OR OR the back and forth with the earring.

thanks for the ask!

I don’t know what to ask for f’dryx but I just have to Know about him. It’s a need.

Describe him in three words

And maybe a little random info dump 🥺 (literally it can be the randomist details)

oooo fun fun fun! sorry this is so late, smihi! let’s get into it :)

f’dryx in three words? drunk, innovative, and resilient

bro is creative and ingenious with his ideas. he often slips out of sticky situations not because he had the skills or talent to, but because he deliberates all his options. and above all—he is a survivalist. nothing is below him if it means he survives. hence the resilient thing.

the drunk is because bro is a full on drunk holy shit. i’m talking, he got lost at sea and he started having withdrawals type of alcoholic. it’s a problem. 💀
