| − | <i>“White magic, the arcane art of succor, was conceived eras past that the world might know comfort. Alas, man began perverting its powers for self-gain, and by his wickedness brought about the Sixth Umbral catastrophe. Although the art subsequently became forbidden, it is now in the midst of a revival at the hands of the Padjal, chosen of the elementals.Those who would walk the path of the white mage are healers without peer, possessed of the power to deliver comrades from the direst of afflictions—even the icy grip of death itself.”</i>

| |
| − | | |
| − | The Hopebringer family was known for being major contributors of the village that they hailed from. They learned to give and take from the land, which enabled them to provide for their townsfolk. Michael Hopebringer was a merchant while he was alive, a skill that Rey is continually learning despite his father having been passed for several years now. Rey’s mother is still alive, however Rey does not visit her much due to his being busy assisting Eorzea in its troubled times. Rey was very close to his elder brother, Matthew. However, Matthew went on a sailing mission for his village and never returned. Rey owns a keepsake from his brother, a feather that is said to come from a very rare bird that is a distant cousin to the Phoenix.

| − | ===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:14px;color:#FFFFFF;">Appearance</div>===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Taller than the average midlander at 6 fulms 1 ilms, Rey is considered a little strange for a midlander Hyur. He is quite taller than his counterparts. His build is considered to be skinny yet chiseled. While healers are usually smaller and more frail, this is not the case for Rey. These attributes are from his constant travels, along with his gathering skills. He is also quite tan from working out in the field every now and then. Weighing in at 170 ponz, his physique is quite apparent through his usually tight clothing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | He has platinum blonde hair, almost bordering on appearing white in color. His eyes are a mysterious shade of very light blue, also almost appearing solid white in color. None of his other family has these attributes, and his mother strongly believes that Rey was touched by some sort of Holy magic which permanently altered his hair and eye color while he was very young.
| |
| − | | |
| − | His clothing is usually very plain. Most of the time, he can be seen wearing a white, athletic sleeveless shirt for easy movement and good exposure to the sun. Rey is quite keen to warmth and enjoys it very much as he is invigorated by it. He also can be seen wearing white shorts with white thighboots. He almost never wears fancy armor, as fancy armor seems to get in the way of his agility when he needs to get out of a sticky situation. His affinity for the color white is also strong evidence that some sort of Holy magic has influenced more than his physical features.
| |
| − | | |
| − | His only accessories are a metal shackle on his right wrist with the embroidery of a Garlean prison, along with a metal choker with the number “182371” inscribed onto it. These “accessories” are remnants of a time that Rey was captured by Garleans while working out in the field and being hauled off to one of their prisoner camps.

| − | ===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:14px;color:#FFFFFF;">Personality</div>===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Rey strives to be one of the most selfless people on the realm. He is usually quiet around newfound adventurers or friends, but once he feels comfortable, his humble behavior turns into that of a loyal protector. He is quick to throw himself into any dangerous situation to save his friends or assist in any way, even if the cost was his own life. Rey has a bad habit of sweating the “small things” and being a bit of a worrier. He is constantly afraid that he will fail his life mission as a protector or his friends.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Rey is considered very friendly, unless you give him a reason not to be. He loathes dishonest or rude people, especially unwelcoming adventurers or those who have no care for others. He is easy enough to get along with, especially after a drink or two. He is prone to find himself in embarrassing situations, but has the innate ability to laugh at himself which tends to serve him well in larger groups. He isn’t much one to flirt, but if he does find someone attractive, he may make subtle hints that he would expect the other to pick up on. Whether or not that is considered “flirty”, he doesn’t know.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Although he has devoted his life to the mending of others, Rey has trouble mending emotional scars within his own persona. The death of his father and the loss of his brother have taken quite a toll on him, and each life failure makes him feel like he has failed them both constantly. Rey can get emotional at times, but only if he feels very strongly about something or someone. He tries his best not to let emotions get in the way of his duty as a healer, but he often finds himself grouped with his friends so his emotions often drive him to make sure he succeeds at any task.
| |
| − | | |
| − | He isn’t one to push people away unless he needs to separate himself for thought or time alone. He tries to surround himself with as many friends as he can, and wants to avoid any kind of conflict, if possible. If a situation arises when two friends are mad at each other or someone needs to find another, Rey is almost always the first to volunteer himself for assistance. His defense mechanism is usually that of hiding his true feelings, only to spill them out later. He is trying his best to change that, but it is a habit that he has had since childhood.

| − | ===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:14px;color:#FFFFFF;">Biography</div>===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Born and raised in the far reaches of The Shroud, Rey lived in the small village of Palatka. The son of a merchant and alchemist, he quickly learned the value of hard work. He worked many suns out in his family’s fields, growing and harvesting many crops to help sustain his small and secluded village. At the age of 10, he would begin communicating with the forest. He would hear echoes and whispers from various parts of the forest when he would be traveling with family or playing with the other children. He dismissed it at first since he was but a child, but as he grew older, the whispers and echoes became much more apparent to him.
| |
| − | | |
| − | At the age of 14, he finally revealed what he had been hearing throughout the different regions of Gridania. His mother had read ancient literature on the subject, suspecting that her son had been different due to his hair and eye color. She sent him to the city-state of New Gridania under the supervision of a traveling caravan to be taken in by the Conjurer’s Guild. The Conjurer’s Guild would take them under his wing, teaching him advanced techniques of conjury and mastery of the elements of earth and water. During his training, he would constantly find himself in a trance while in the forest. Members of the Conjurer’s Guild would take note of this and alerted the Guild Master, which prompted them to label Rey as a possessor of “The Echo.”
| |
| − | | |
| − | At age 17, Rey finally received a break from his training and was allowed to travel home to see his family. During his solo travel, he was abducted by a traveling band of Garleans that had been sent to scout the lands. They captured Rey and brought him back to one of their camps, where they latched an unbreakable shackle onto his wrist and wrapped his neck with a choker labeled with his identification number. He would not be at this camp for long, perhaps for about a month or so. The Garleans would learn of Rey’s power and try to manipulate and twist it for their own purposes of camp expansion. Their location would soon be discovered by an army regimen of Gridania, being sent out on patrolling missions having learned that the Garleans were looking into moving into their lands.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When Rey turned 21, the Conjurer’s Guild decided to advance Rey to the highest training available within the guild and assume the role of the White Mage. As Rey became more attuned to the soul of the White Mage, he found that he would hear the forest whisper and echoes becoming stronger and understandable. He discovered that these whispers were the ones of White Mages past, letting him know for years that this path was his fate and he was destined to protect and heal others. He had finally understood what he was meant to do on Eorzea, and vowed to himself to be a protector of all citizens on Hyaelyn. However, as of recent, the forest whispers have become stranger, telling him stories that he wouldn’t quite understand and lead him to places that would seemingly be empty, but only time will tell where the whispers of the forest will take him next…
| |
| − | | |
| − | During his travels, Rey would pick up various crafting and gathering skills that would allow him to further service the citizens of Eorzea. While these professional skills were constantly being improved and refined, he would also pick up the skills and abilities of other magical aether, trying to understand all aspects of magical abilities in the world of Hydaelyn. These skills include the rival healing abilities of the Scholar and the dark destructive magic of the Black Mage. He never condones the use of Black Magic and tries to avoid it entirely. He still continued to refine his Scholarly abilities since he has mastered the abilities of the White Mage.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Rey is quite versed in playing the musical instruments of the piano and the harp. He practices his piano quite often and plays to himself whenever he gets the change. He believes he can soothe the torment of the forest by playing the piano. He also uses the piano as an outlet for his emotions, especially the burdens of the souls past that he carries with him almost constantly. He generally plays alone and almost never lets anyone hear him play, although the people who have heard him have told him that he is quite skilled at the art.

| |
| − | Having first met Tetsuro while he was heading out on a leve quest, he would later be approached by the Doman man whose nationality that he did not recognize. He was in a disagreement with a large Roegadyn when Tetsuro approached the conversation. Since that moment, Rey had been curious of the man and constantly intrigued by him. He was initially apprehensive about letting Tetsuro know his preferences of a lover, Tetsuro was nothing but warm and kind as the two grew closer, despite Rey being a blond which Tetsuro was not sure if he liked or not. As time would pass, their relationship would become significantly closer and Rey would find himself very attracted to Tetsuro and would want to pursue a relationship with him. However, Tetsuro is currently away, wandering the land as he figures things out for himself. Rey eagerly awaits the return of Tetsuro in a few days so they can pick up where they left off.
| |
| − | :<font style="color:#66CD00;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Seiko Mamushi]]'''
| |
| − | Seiko, known as Chou, is a good friend of Tetsuro that Tetsuro introduced to Rey a few days after their own meeting. Rey and Chou would become close as Rey and Tetsuro’s relationship would intensify. Chou has proven herself to be a good friend to Rey and Rey enjoys her company. She has taken Rey on a tour of her house and she allows him to stay there, if need be. They also attend taverns together as well as randomly meet up in the Quicksand for a quick game of Triple Triad. Rey hopes that they will become the best of friends soon.
| |
| − | :<font style="color:#66CD00;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Gwannes Oskwell]]'''
| |
| − | Rey met Oskwell when he was introduced to Chou through Tetsuro. Oskwell is Chou’s soon-to-be husband, and also has become a close friend of Rey’s. He goes to great lengths to protect Chou, which Rey hopes Tetsuro will protect Rey in the same way. While Rey still has many things to learn from Oskwell, he is confident in their ability to become fast friends and even adventurers in the future. Rey has also promised Chou that he will protect Oskwell as Oskwell tends to find himself in some pretty hairy situations.
| |
| − | :<font style="color:#A74AC7;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Aerostein Epitaph]]'''
| |
| − | Rey would have a brief run in with this man at the Quicksand when he was about to leave with Tetsuro to grab a bite to eat. He got the feeling that Aerostein had romantic feelings for Tetsuro, as he seemed very apprehensive to get to know Rey. Rey is unsure about his feelings towards this man as he doesn’t know him very well, but perhaps he could become a friend in the future.
| |
| − | :<font style="color:#A74AC7;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Keiji Shigeru]]'''
| |
| − | Rey would meet Keiji during the night of Tetsuro’s ceremony, honoring his passed family. He doesn’t know much about Keiji, but he knows that Tetsuro cares for him very much. Hopefully in the coming times, Rey will get to know more of Tetsuro’s pseudo-family and fellow Domans.
| |
| − | :<font style="color:#A74AC7;" size="3">●</font> '''Daiki Hayashi'''
| |
| − | Rey would also meet Daiki the night of the lantern ceremony. While Daiki seemed very distant to Rey, Rey knew that Daiki was a trusted individual and would want to know more about Daiki from Tetsuro.
