Burning Passion is a skilled synthesist from Radz-at-Han, the Near East. A savant in the art of all forms of synthesis, he is always more than willing to help others who may lack his own personal expertise. Through utilizing power from elemental crystals in his crafting, he has gained a small understanding of how aether flows, which has piqued his fascination in the arts of thaumaturgy.

Burning Passion (or "Red", as some have taken to call him) is an adventurer and Second Lieutenant in the Immortal Flames. True to his name, he shows almost inhuman levels of determination to accomplish great feats. While he is still teaching himself how to use a wide variety of weapons, he is most comfortable using his own bare hands to subdue his foes. However, as brutish as his fighting style is, he is far more intelligent than he appears, knowing many things about the world of Hydaelyn and beyond. What is he hiding? Where is he from originally? Is he one of the Warriors of Light?

Burning is a Roegadyn and, as such is a very large, very stocky individual. He has darkly tanned skin and vibrant red hair with golden highlights, looking as if to resemble fire itself. He has four parallel scars over his left eye and nose, shaped like they came from a set of claws. He is shorter than most Roegadyn, but also lighter on his feet.

===Behavior===

===Behavior===
+
Burning is a kind, patient, compassionate soul, though rather quiet. He is very shy around those who do not share his interests and it takes a long time for him to warm up to people. But for those he is close to, he is a beacon of good spirits and optimism. He does not handle verbal conflict well, preferring to shy away from such arguments, and instead preferring to be in the company of people who are, at the very least, visibly happy.
 +
 
 +
He is a perfectionist and is stubborn to a fault, seeing giving up as the ultimate failure, and seeing any failure at all--even in areas he has weaknesses in--as a reflection of his own self-worth. Constant failure can cause Burning's once bright demeanor to grow dark and depressive, especially if the failure is his own. Despite his lack of patience with himself, he has plenty of it when aiding others with their endeavors, filling the role of the teacher quite well.
  
−
Burning is a very gung-ho and energetic man who has a great passion for adventuring and fighting. He is famous for being loud, boisterous, and absolutely hates seeing anyone left out of good times. He appears quite foolish a lot of the time and relishes the time he has with his friends and companions. He's also quite reckless, openly declaring the primal Ifrit as his personal rival. Though despite this, there are times when he might be unwilling to engage in an ongoing conversation. He is more of a fighter than a socialite, after all.

Burning's is more of a craftsman than a fighter, but he has a fair knowledge of thaumaturgy and lesser knowledge of the other magicks, but enough to aid him with his thaumaturgical studies.
−
Burning is skilled in the use of a variety of different weapons, but is a true master of the fist. A very quick study, and exceptionally difficult to defeat in combat. Even still, he continues to train himself through the use of weapons in order to adapt much of what he has learned back to his true, original style of barehanded combat.

Burning was born and raised in Radz-at-Han in Thavnair. He was born to a lesser noble house of merchants and was taught the arts of the craftsman from the young age of eight. Everything from blacksmithing to weaving and, of course, alchemy. His aptitude with learning these arts allowed him to become a universally skilled craftsman in only a decade of study.
  
−
Burning was born in Ul'dah on Hydaelyn, but not the same Hydaelyn as the one he currently resides on now. In his Hydaelyn, he trained at the Pugilists Guild. A gifted fighter, he earned many accolades and even joined the Immortal Flames of his own world. Along with others, he even held back the Garlean invasion force. However, Ultima Weapon showed up. When it used "Ultima", it tore a tiny hole in the Interdimensional Rift. Just behind that hole were two beings that his world was not ready for. One was a machine, much like the Ultima Weapon. Only this machine was silver and stood on four wiery appendages, with a single eye. The other was a massive dragon, larger even than Bahamut, which looked to have gold and red scales. The two beings fought with such ferocity that it shook the entire planet. Ultima had wounded many of his companions. He and a handful of others stayed behind while the rest escaped. He watched as the two completely obliterated Ultima Weapon with a single strike as if it were little more than aluminum foil. Burning charged at the golden dragon, but a single swipe almost took off his entire face before he was grabbed by the massive dragon and thrown through the gateway into the Rift, which sealed behind him. He could only watch as his entire world was utterly destroyed by those two monsters. Everything he had ever known and loved was gone.
+
In his later years of study, at the age of seventeen, he was introduced to the world of thaumaturgy from an Ul'dahn thaumaturge visiting Radz-at-Han to learn Thavnairian Alchemy. Burning's Alchemy tutor directed the mysterious young lalafell to Burning himself, so that they may exchange information. Burning taught the lalafell the basics of alchemy and the lalafell taught Burning some rudimentary lessons in thaumaturgy.
  
−
This new place was cold and dark. He navigated it for months. Fighting fiercely powerful monsters and defeating them, but only barely. In time, he came across a small library. Inside were many books. Most of the books contained the secrets of this place, the Interdimensional Rift, a plane between realities. The books even told of the two he fought. The machine, Omega, and the dragon, Shinryu. The tale goes that the two have been fighting for aeons without rest, and have left entire worlds destroyed in their wake. The books also told of the Rift's many other secrets. About the many other worlds connected to The Rift, and of who was capable of wielding power over it. There were even books on such people, as if the books were writing themselves! One book told of a knight of darkness who lost his body in combat, but was brought to life with the power of The Rift to become an ultimate evil. Another told of a samurai clad in red in the search for the most powerful weapons ever to be forged in preparation to meet with his ultimate rival. Yet another speaks of another warrior, granted the blessing of her goddess with great power and an even greater task.
+
Fascinated by the basic study, he requested leave from his parents to depart for Ul'dah for a "trade expedition", though in truth he wished to study more about thaumaturgy from the Ossuary there. His parents, of course, granted this leave, unknowing of Burning's true intentions.
  
−
Eventually, he reached one book on a shelf which bestowed upon him the knowledge upon how to traverse The Rift and, better, how to leave. Following the book's instruction, he attempted to locate where his world had once been. It may have been destroyed, but there must still be survivors there. He did eventually find where his world was, but saw nothing but destruction. The entire world was comprised of nothing but massive craters and ruins as far as the eye could see. It was completely unrecognizable. Seeing no life on this dead world, he returned to The Rift and wandered. Days became weeks. Weeks became months. And in time, he felt responsible for the deaths of all of those people. Sure, he was not the cause of it, it was that damn Ultima Weapon and that damn Gaius von Baelsar that executed the Ultima attack that brought Omega and Shinryu into his world, and it was them who destroyed it. He was helpless to stop it. Everyone was. But eventually, he found something impossible. It was his home, Hydaelyn! But it was different, somehow. He wasn't quite sure how, but it was his home! Maybe it hadn't been destroyed after all!
+
Burning then studied at the Ossuary for many years while simultaneously taking on commission jobs with the Ul'dahn craftsman guilds, oftentimes coming into contact with other practitioners of magic, such as Conjurers and Arcanists alike, some of whom obliged his thirst for knowledge of conjury and the arcane geometry with rudimentary lessons.
  
−
He entered this world, and it did feel like his own world. But no one knew who he was. His friends no longer existed in this reality. Many he fought alongside with had no recollection of such events and didn't know who he was. It was a cosmic joke. Burning Passion was back on Hydaelyn, but it wasn't his Hydaelyn. It wasn't his world. It wasn't his Eorzea, it wasn't his Ul'dah, it wasn't his Sultana, it wasn't his Flame Commander, it wasn't his master in the Pugilist's Guild, everything was wrong! But Burning had no choice. This world was plagued by the same crisis his own had faced. It was his duty to protect it. In this world, Gaius had not yet activated Ultima. He was in time to stop it! He volunteered for the raid party on Castrum Meridium, now fully aware of the Ultima Weapon's true potential. Immediately as the fight began, Burning aimed for a particular device strapped to Ultima Weapon, damaging its abilities enough to lessen the power of Ultima. It managed to succeed, but caused the Ultima Weapon to malfunction and explode.
+
To this day, Burning seeks to further his knowledge of the arcane and test his power against all obstacles, pushing his boundaries further and further still.
  
−
Thanks to Burning, the crack in the Rift did not open and those two foul calamities did not unleash hell on this world. Though only Burning was aware of that. No one else thought anything of such things. Heck, he was certain that no one of this world even knew what the Interdimensional Rift even was other than him. But one thing was for certain. This Hydaelyn was his home now. And he had to ensure that Omega and Shinryu were never given the chance to destroy this world as they had his own. Never.
