Basic Info

A shy, mysterious Lalafell, Dren wanders Eorzea in search of companionship and happiness, two things he has seldom seen during his extremely traumatic lifetime. Having been separated from civilization for the majority of his life and almost entirely uneducated, he is quite strange; he may act in a way that no normal person would, or avoid social situations (almost) entirely. He is not accustomed to interacting with others, making him very shy and timid, and the few interactions he has had have caused his moral values to become distorted. He means well in all he does, but may suggest unusual, disturbing or violent actions, but his intentions are mostly pure and innocent.

Appearance and Personality

Dren is albino, giving him bright white hair and skin, as well as pink eyes. He usually wears light clothing, (robes, cloaks, cloth) and tries to keep his head and face covered as much as possible, due to to albinism making his skin extra sensitive. He barely notices his albinism though, and attributes the strange looks he occasionally gets to being a Lalafell instead. He is tall for a Lalafell, but is still relatively short compared to the other races. He does not mind his short stature, thinking instead that all others are tall and that Lalafell are normal. His gaze almost constantly appears curious and he is always observing the world around him, trying to learn how Eorzea and all the people living within it work.

His expression is generally neutral, nervous or happy, most often without obvious reason. His lack of knowledge of social conventions and cues leads him to be very open with his emotions at times, especially with those he has opened up to. It is not often that he meets new people (he is too shy to start a conversation most of the time) but he will interact or step in if he sees someone in danger or being threatened. He spends most of his time wandering, but feels Limsa Lominsa is the closest thing he has to a home, as it was the first piece of land he remembers setting foot on.

He appears innocent most of the time, with his large, sparkling pink eyes gleaming in the silence of his shyness. There is something else hidden beyond the innocence, something dark. Though not formally educated, he is intelligent and adept in the ways of magic. Through the veil of innocence and ignorance, an entirely different demon peers through those bright, shiny eyes. Rarely does he ever get angry, but when he does...

Biography

Dren Ghonne was born to two Lalafellin fishermen who operated a large fishing vessel that roamed the seas, docking to make trade and never settling anywhere longer than they needed. Dren's parents were never wealthy, spending all the money made on supplies for their modest crew and furnishings for the massive vessel that was their livelihood. For years, Dren grew alongside his humble parents, learning to fish and occasionally gather berries on land.

Such a large ship surviving unarmed on the open sea for so long was mostly blind luck, and they were eventually raided by a group of vicious pirates. Dren hid in a pile of fishnets, while he peeked out, he witnessed the execution of both his parents and most of the crew. The pirates then dumped their bodies off the side of the ship and proceeded to take over the large fishing vessel and convert it into a pirate battleship. Dren was eventually discovered, and the pirates told him to walk the plank. He paced out to the edge of the board, his young, tiny body leaning precariously over the edge, peering into the deep blue of the ocean and it's seemingly never-ending reach, with no land in sight. He slowly turned, and peered back at the pirates, who stood gaining entertainment from attempting to make a child to leap into the ocean. He understood that jumping would mean certain death, and that returning to the men would mean much worse.
