(Before you get into it I am mildly familiar with RP so I am no stranger to it however considering I have not done Final Fantasy RP you can consider this newbie XD. Also one thing I would like to hear about is if the alignment I have chosen is appropriate, I am rather big on alignments since it helps give direction in how your character should be, thanks again and enjoy)

Combat Proficiency: Hand to hand combat,Skilled with a variety of weaponry but favor’s the lance, slight proficiency in magic but overall is not skilled in the area
 
Appearance:
Clothing Choice: Normal Civilian wear with no preferred color of choice
Armor Choice: Allows for maneuverability but also provides a sufficient amount of protection for when maneuverability fails
Weapon Choice: Lance
 
Special Abilities: When he was born he had the ability to every now and then hear whispers of nature, it just limited to the forests but all parts of the world, in a sense he can hear the worlds voice. The ability however is not reliable as he cannot use it of his own volition; it can happen at the most random and possibly dangerous of situations. He has learned to be able to maintain his focus and often shut out the voices if the situation calls for it but otherwise listens. It also seems that the color of his eyes are also due to this ability, both his parents have hazelnut eyes yet he has green eyes that give off a slight glow when near areas of condensed magic.


Personality:


Alignment: Lawful Evil


Motivations: While he lacks a certain faith to any gods in particular due to hearing the voices of possibly the planet itself he seeks to save it from destruction, even if it means he must go down a dark path and not bathe in the light he has gladly resolved himself to work within the shadows it casts to protect the world.


Disposition: If they prove to be a threat to the safety of the world he wall pursue them maliciously and methodically, however that does not mean he will turn a blind eye to other groups or individuals who are causing problems. He is not to be confused with a hero of justice though more often than not the actions he par takes can be considered questionable as well.


Outlook: Seeks a world different from what it is now but not at the cost of complete destruction of the planet or life


Philosophy: “Preserve the light in the shadows it casts”
Personality Traits: Very patient,willing to learn new methods if they benefit his line of work, level headed on and off the battlefield, mildly social and tries to keep the mood light when not on a mission. Depending on the kind of assignments he goes on he can become especially cold and vicious and is very dedicated to getting the job done, putting yourself between him and his job especially in the case he believes the person a threat to the world will result in extreme hostility do so at your own risk or with another person at the very least.
 
BackStory:
Andras was born to a moonkeeper tribe however his parents wanted to break away from tradition and decided to leave the forests soon after his birth giving him a nontraditional name and headed to Ul’Dah. A good portion of his childhood and early teen years was quite average and he and his family lived a comfortable life to age 15. That soon came to an end when the calamity approached. During the final stages of the calamity Andras’s parents went to battle, they had prior experience on the battlefield and wanted to fight to protect their child. They may have also felt that they must go and fight when they heard that their tribe was heading to the battlefield as well, they may have broken away from them but a bond was still there. Although distraught Andras knew the world was in a dangerous state due to his ability which he kept secret from his parents as to not worry them, he accepted their departure with a heavy heart. In the final moments of the calamity Andras was brought to his knees in sheer pain, his ability that was nothing more than whispers became a loud and violent screaming, and became so intense he even feared that the voices would take form and take his life, but no sooner did it begin the screaming stopped… An Era ended and a new one began. When his parents did not return he knew why and mourned for them. After hearing the screaming Andras decided he would do anything to make sure the world did not end up in such a state again, at whatever cost. Growing up in Ul’Dah Andras knew about the syndicate and decided that he will gain the skills he needed by joining them. For 3 years he worked for the syndicate and learned various techniques for combat and outside of combat as well. He also obtained numerous contacts of individuals with various occupations legal and illegal. Once he obtained what he needed which was skill, experience and resources Andras left the syndicate and began conducting operations of his own, hunting down potential threats and dealing with them as well as becoming a mercenary that took on jobs of sabotage and assassination, and even became a information broker of sorts. All of this in an effort to ensure the planets safety from another calamity, he did this 2 years and was confronted with a wide variety of situations, but that is something for another time. Despite his efforts the quieted whispers that Andras heard were beginning to increase in volume and he knew that something was approaching.

Hi!
Great job on developing your character. I like the "anti-hero" feel to him. I also like the fact that he has an unusual name for a Miqo'te since my main character also has a nontraditional name as well hehe. Lancer and pugilist, eh? Your character heading down the path to Dragoon? Smile. Anyways, good work and I think there is still room to add to your character's story!! Have fun!!!!

Thank you, I like going towards the anti-hero route because it allows for more freedom in choices since they are not necessarily morally bound. It also creates tension in RP since people don't know how exactly the person will handle the situation [Image: biggrin.gif]. I am Most definitely going dragoon probably a favorite of mine. There will definitely be more story, will probably make some about missions and things that happened in that 5 year span and then endeavors that have and are occurring after. Glad you enjoyed and thanks again for teh feedbacks
