♦ Appearance

---

Reinard is a tall man, with fair skin and complexion, fading brown hair and vibrant blue eyes. His hair is usually kept in a disheveled state, arranged by hand so it will not lay before his eyes of his spectacles. He tends to favor light clothes that do not impair movement, as well as elegant designs. Often seen with a book of some form on his person, and often seen reading said book.

♦ Personality Traits

---

Reinard behaves in a calm and collected manner most of the time, often quiet unless prompted. Likewise he's most often found at home in the midst of books and silence, even if he tends to drift towards a tavern every now and then to clear his mind and watch the crowd. A very logical person who seems to give great thought to every moment and action that he is to take, though he is not unkind or cold because of it. Indeed as a doctor he tends to display a kind and protective demeanor towards his patients, though some believe that is simple bedside manners. During work he prefers to separate himself from his emotion in order to maintain an unclouded way of thinking and acting. In those circumstances he's the most detached as he can be, even coming off as rude in some cases.

Reinard's behavior 'blooms' during research of expeditions, where he displays a more enthusiastic persona, often speaking up in conversations related to the current research, able to go on talking for long periods of time about information, its meaning, his theories and such, a behavior that tends to annoy those who do not share of his own enthusiasm. The only thing that rivals his interest in the pursuit of knowledge, seems to be his discreet interest in women; Keen eyes do not shy away from spying the beauties of that populate Eorzea.

Reinard has a particular quirk involving adjusting his glasses on his bridge nose which can be triggered by a number of factors.

Relations *Icons best seen in IE or Firefox(Google Chrome doesn't like them)* ● Good Standing ● Neutral Standing ● Poor Standing ● Lucaniel Clarke – Cousin (Adopted) and benefactor. A man whom Reinard holds respect, and above all, a great degree of loyalty for, and is willing to cover for Lucaniel, despite having no interest in the man's Underworld organization, and at times a measure of distaste for the extreme actions he performs. His current relationship to Lucan stands at the tipping point between "Good" and "Bad", as both men had their bonds tested by the recent development between them and Roswyn. ● Nocturiel Blackthorne – Cousin (Adopted) ● I'yato Khai – An energetic Miqo'te whom Reinard met during his first visit to Gridania. Her good nature and contagious enthusiasm sometimes sparks similar feelings inside the usually quiet Reinard. ● Roswyn Valhuri – A sharp minded Miqo'te and associate of Lucan's. Being one of Reinard's first friends in Ul'dah, Reinard quickly took a liking to her, despite her most evident relationship to his cousin. Despite confessing his love for her, Roswyn was unable to reply to his feelings, instead choosing Lucan as the object of her affection. Despite grievously wounded by the outcome, Reinard still cares for her well being, his feelings slowly shifting from romance towards a more platonic stance.. ● Corbi Slater – While officially his Boss, Reinard still knows very little of the man to judge him on a personal level. None the less, through their brief moments of interaction, Corbi has shown to be trustworthy and well centered enough for Reinard to agree to work for him and his Free Company. ● Tera Stone – A member of Eorzea Unearthed whose unusual connection to an ancient artifact quickly drew Reinard's attention. His curiosity towards her mysteries led to a still-developing personal interest that has yet to fully blossom. Though his interest seems purely academic, Reinard does display some concern for her health. ● Melfice Vainchelon - A mysterious figure whom Reinard only knows by his first name. Though Reinard recognizes and respects the man's vast knowledge and experience in matters concerning the Void, the little contact the two have shared did little to build any form of trust in between them.

Rumors ■ "Reinard Ackerman? The doctor? Yeah I know of him. Hasn't seen him around in a while, not ever since his clinic was trashed. I heard it was some crooked Brass Blade looking to pin something on him." – Ul'dahnian citizen (Space for PC rumors under this line) ■ The way he pushes his glasses up his nose is just....absolutely endearing. It makes me hesitant to wonder how dark he might actually be inside..." – Roswyn Valhuri
