+ | <li><b>Weaponry -</b>Vincent is quite skilled with a variety of martial weapons, having been trained from a young age by his retired adventurer mother in their use. Focusing primarily on sword and shield. (He has some minor talent in unarmed combat, but prefers a weapon in hand. He also knows how to use a bow but it's not one of his stronger skills)</li> | ||
+ | <li><b>Acrobatics -</b> Having been trained from such a young age, at his own insistence, he has a body that while not overly muscled, is still conditioned appropriately for someone so often in combat situations. As a result he's quite athletic, and a talented acrobat, so will often employ their use in a fight to create openings and surprise opponents. (A handy skill for someone that likes to explore and travel, allowing him to be in decent condition and still be ready for a fight)</li> | ||
+ | <li><b>Swordplay -</b> Due to his martial training and its emphasis on the use of a blade, Vincent has no shortage of skill when it comes to handling a sword. Having studied multiple forms, stances and different sword types over the years, he's most comfortable in combat with a blade in hand. He'll often draw upon these disciplines during a fight, moving between their different motions, weaving in his own variants of established forms and attacks to keep an opponent on their toes. (While not exactly a master swordsman, he has proficiency and diligence enough that anyone, such as a random bandit, that has never actually taken more than ten minutes to study their weapon than, 'pick it up and hit things' isn't going to be a match for him.</li> | ||

− | <li>---</li> | + | <li><b>Magic/Aether -</b> Vincent isn't just a physical fighter, but a spellcaster as well. Though his anima is limited, his aetheric potential is substantial. More of an innate caster than one that's studied, drawing upon raw power and emotion to augment his spells and use of aether. Typically he'll rely more on his physical strength and training in combat, but if an opponent can't be beaten with sheer force alone, he'll start using spells, either by themselves, or woven into his swordplay.</li> |

+ | <li><b>Offensive -</b></li> | ||
+ | <li><b>Defensive -</b></li> | ||
+ | <li><b>Healing Hands -</b></li> Vincent has some skill as a healer, drawing upon white magic in order to apply curative magicks to those in need. Much like his other spellcasting, its potency depends heavily on his emotional state, the more distraught and unfocused he is, the weaker the potency of the cure. It places a far greater drain on his aether than any combat spells he may use, and while he can use it to close wounds, stop bleeding and dull the pain of those he heals, he's far from a chirurgeon, or an actual white mage, astrologian or scholar. Any cure he does apply to someone can be potent, but it won't restore them on the same level as a cast from a true healer. He also draws heavily upon his own aetheric energy to augment his healing, often draining from his own lifeforce directly to heal those at death's door. (This is really the only White Magic he has any access to, he's not able to cleanse poisons, disease or adverse effects with his spells. At best he can restore some vitality and apply pain relief to settle their nerves and aid in their recovery, but an actual antidote or a genuine healer is needed to cure poisons and other severe conditions beyond immediate physical damage) | ||
+ | <li><b>Arcane Abilities Trivia 1 -</b> Vincent's magic is heavily dependent on his emotional state, rather than a build up of one mana type or another. The greater his emotional distress, anger, or inspiration, the stronger his offensive and defensive magic gets. While potent when he's emotionally balanced, an imbalance sees a sharp spike in potency. However when it comes down to his healing abilities, they require concentration, focus, and a clear mind to be at their most effective. If he's mostly composed, they'll still be effective, but if he's a distraught mess, he'll be lucky if he can even get the cure to cast. (Effectively, his black mana thrives in distress and adversity. His white mana flounders, and fades. His capacity for destruction improves drastically, but his ability to create and to mend suffers in the wake of that added strength)</li> | ||
+ | <li><b>Arcane Abilities Trivia 2 -</b> While Vincent does have a wellspring of sufficient aether he can tap into when needed, the quantity of anima he has, and the nature of his aetheric power, makes his use of aethernetworks, and spells such as Return and Teleport, virtually impossible. They place a tremendous drain on his aether, often to the point of knocking him unconscious if he teleports unaided. Anyone with sufficient anima that does assist in the trip, will find themselves significantly drained by the experience. On the rare occasion where he doesn't simply black out, he's drastically weakened and disoriented by it. (As a result of this, Vincent relies on conventional means of transport to get from place to place, on foot, chocobo, landcoaches/carriages, airships and boats etc.) </li> | ||

Vincent Valourheart --- About
A lithe young hyur, with youthful, even delicate, feminine facial features to match his body. Fair-skinned, with unkempt fiery brown hair and deep blue eyes. Of a slight and feminine physical build, but clearly toned and trained under the armour for the life he's chosen to lead. His smooth, slender body and soft facial features belie a greater strength of spirit beneath his delicate and unassuming veneer. Scars & Markings: For a young man that leads such a dangerous life, and has survived many a severe or life-threatening injury, his body appears undamaged, not a scar or mark to be found upon his skin. Not even the telltale small nicks and scars upon the hands of a practised swordsman remain as evidence of the years of training he's had. It's not for lack of injury, or failure in the line of fire, perhaps it's just a careful application of salves and potions to a well-maintained body in the wake of his lifestyle, surely that's all there is to it. Voice: A soft spoken, fundamentally sincere tone, youthful and boyish in nature. A tone and pitch of voice befitting the body of the young swordsman, fit to match the hero's heart within. Clothing: --- --- Personality ---
Despite an aversion to bloodshed, he still enjoys a fight, and can be talkative in combat, often driving opponents to distraction. He prefers a diplomatic approach where possible, but knows that a silver tongue doesn't always serve as well as a simple clash of steel. More than aware that though reason and humanity can triumph even in the most dire straits, some have already lost far too much of either to be shown the mercy he so ardently clings to in his pursuit of a better world. Their lives a burden he will always carry. An idealistic youth with a personality to match his warm heart.
