"It is not luck that drives my spear forth, but Halones will. I have devoted my life to her, converting my very being into a testament to her prowess." - Armont De'bayle .
"The reeking masses yearn for gods and miracles. It is their opiate, and they consume it greedily. The people do not endeavor towards greatness, but rather mire themselves in their petty strifes—shackles on the feet of man. " - Wiegraf Folles, Final Fantasy Tactics .
Overview
Armont is the eldest of his siblings, who followed in the footsteps of his father to the best of his ability. Upon the patriarchs passing, Armont continued on as a lancer and began walking down a new path in the desire to bring his family a brighter future, even at the cost of dishonor to himself.
History
From the day he was able to walk, Armont has been able to wield a spear. Drilled daily in his lancework, the Elezen boy's goals were to fill the shadow of his father, Aegisan, who was a renowned Temple Knight and head of the De'bayle family. With a steadfast attitude and his family beside him in his endeavors, Armont oft rose above those who trained around him. It was within the Temple Knight's that Armont befriended another Squire like himself; Onault Las'fre, who drove him to truly push his limits and conquer his fears. He and his childhood friend found themselves training in their off time until the late hours of the night, normally ending with them being scolded by Knight and Mother alike. Years passed and the two Squires found themselves in the midst of an attack from the Dravanian Horde. In this fight the city was raised and Temple Knights were dispatched out to the various sections of Ishgard. Being told to remain guarding one of the many gates, Onault heavily insisted that they assist those just below with the swarming Aevis's. Knowing the risk that would come of it, Armont disagreed, his friend leaving on his own to aid the opposition that rested below the spiraling steps. After the city was returned to a neutral state, Armont ran down to find his friend; that in which was in a pool of his own blood, with deep lacerations across his chest. Onault caused two others to perish from his brash actions and disobedience. The event of that evening alone was enough to shift the eldest De'bayle's views on orders, thus forging his unwavering devotion and loyalty to those who commanded over him.
During his late teen-hood, the sight of his kin becoming shambles upon his father death brought an even greater tide of change into Armont's life. He and his brother, Denz, began training under the watchful eye of Captain Yvain Dulimont who assisted them in honing their skills. With his help they were able to become more independent in their new lives among Ishgardian nobility, however, Armont still felt that the hole his father left on the family was not sealed over. Taking it upon himself to carry out this task, he left his family behind to wander Coerthas in attempts to help fight the Dravanian Hordes that waged war against Ishgard and her people for centuries. Eleven months passed before he was seen from, only rumors in his wake of a man in charred armor appearing from the blizzards and disappearing with great speed.
Where Armont went, carnage followed. He sought out every scalekin he could find, slaying them in cold blood at the mercy of his people. It wasn't until in recent times that he was tracked down by his youngest brother Denz with the assistance of two midlanders: Jancis and Carina. While Denz feared for Armont during his absence he embraced his brother once more, happy to see him safe.
A month passed from that time, and since then Armont has kept his word to his brother in remaining headstrong in rebuilding their shattered family name to its former glory. In this, he devoutly searches to find a House to be Knighted under, in hopes to aid in their mission of resurgence.
Family History
((WIP))
Personality & Appearance
Being the oldest of the De'bayles, Armont held the mantle of responsibility for the early stages after their parents death. With it, stress caused him to become more reserved in his emotions to help in the eyes of his younger siblings. This and the recent changes that have become of him have forced Armont to keep to himself, coming off as care free in most things.
Armor
The armor Armont bares with pride was once his fathers that was created within the family. Being forged and crafted out of some of the finest metals and materials, it sacrifices protection for speed and mobility. With recent events caused Armont to augment the helmet sightly to cover his left eye with a plate. From up close one would be able to notice the De'bayle family sigil imprinted onto his left pauldron. The armor will always be seen in flawless condition no matter what. If it is to become damaged via events, he will make every effort to get it repaired.
Weapons and Skillset
Halones Boon: A lance that Armont weilds that has a simple point on the top and can be used to swipe like a mace. If needed he can channel the teachings that Sven once taught him, freezing its end to sharpen its strikes.
Blightburn Being able to use a form of Blizzard he can focus it down and channel it through his hands as a conductor. The stronger the channel the more dangerous it becomes to both the opposition and himself. Effects can vary from a mild numb to severe frostbite.
Touch of Winter: A medium ranged attack that can be executed by thrusting his spear forward, forming a violent funnel of ice shards that tear forward out from his spear at the designated target.
Frostguard: If absolutely needed Armont can coat his armor in a thick ice. The spell is extremely taxing and constantly siphons aether from him in order to keep it up. It is a move only used in dire situations as a last resort.
