P E R S O N A L I T Y

A workaholic to the core, it's a rare sight to see Hiroto emerge from his workshop before late evening. The belief that providing for his family is the greatest expression of love is one that was instilled in him since he was old enough to hold a hammer, and one that means said family may not see him for up to days at a time. Thanks to being a sadly prejudiced fellow, first impressions tend to differ depending on race - Hiroto is an amiable man when it comes to meeting fellow Raen. Xaela and all other races have a higher chance to be met by a snooty old man, staring down his nose at anyone who's lacking the proper golden scales.

L I K E S ■ Family - Hiroto's family is his pride, his joy, the reason for his existence. Anyone he considers to be part of his flock is someone he cares for above all others. He will go to any length to see them safe, even if it may come at the expense of a friend. ■ Small creatures - Kittens, puppies, even carbuncles. If there is something tiny and cuddly within the vicinity, chances are he is trying to befriend it. ■ Food - Hiroto is always hungry. Always. If you want to get on his good side, or want to bribe him into doing you a favor, bring him a gift of food. Meat, vegetables, sweets? Anything will do. He'll be far more receptive on a full stomach. ■ --. ■ --

D I S L I K E S ■ Dishonesty - Being a gullible old lizard means he's more likely to fall victim to those who lie in an attempt to manipulate or trick him. Obviously, he's not a big fan of being humiliated, or the people who make a fool out of him. ■ -- ■ -- ■ -- ■ --

F E A R S ■ Sudden loud noises - Thunder, gunfire, a piece of heavy furniture toppling over. These are just some examples of things that will leave him running and hiding like a frightened pup.

S T R E N G T H S ■ Physical strength - Keeping a fairly strict regimen of exercise along with plenty of heavy lifting throughout the day has done him plenty of favors in the muscle department. ■ Moderately skilled with various forms of weaponry. ■ Can eat large quantities of food in a single sitting. ■ He even won a trophy for it once. ■ Incredibly handsome. At least, his mother used to say so.

W E A K N E S S E S ■ Little to no magical ability - Hiroto is baffled by the arts and generally not a fan of travel by aether. If teleportation is insisted upon, it may be wise to keep your distance unless you want to get barfed on. ■ Gullible and easily manipulated - What's that? You're the princess of a long-lost Raen kingdom and you need thirty thousand gil? And you'll pay him millions for his assistance once you're finally able to return to the throne thanks to his help? Of course he'd be happy help. ■ Functionally illiterate - While his children are reading scholarly articles, Hiroto is still reading the books he used to read to them as children.

Q U I R K S ■ Superstitious.

A P P E A R A N C E

Hiroto is a stout and muscular man, with broad shoulders and a thin layer of fat brought on by age. 'Average' might be a word to describe him, with a nose that's just a bit too wide for his face, a brow that juts out a touch far, and a poor complexion brought on by both age and plenty of smoking. Faint crow's feet wrinkles frame the outside of his yellow-green eyes. As much as he may want to deny that they were a sign of aging, the slight recede of his hairline told the same tale. Small burns dapple his arms: some faded, some darkened by sunlight, and others fresh, and it's not uncommon to find soot beneath his fingernails regardless of how clean he attempts to keep himself.

A brief look...

The son of a blacksmith and a warrior woman from a poorly-regarded family. Too tired to write more than that at the moment. :v
