Flynt Reddard
Flynt's a product of money, boredom, and luxury. He's educated, but not using it. He's well-off, but he's not much of a businessman. He's learned how to fight through watching countless gladiatorial battles and probably would have a record if his folks didn't just buy his way out of prison time. Flynt's simply a bored young man trying to make a name for himself any way he can - Be it by fighting and beating people or by just being needlessly eccentric. Be it by fighting and beating people or by just being needlessly eccentric. I don't think Flynt knows himself and as a result, he just does whatever. What kind of weirdo wears a suit in the desert? No one, so Flynt does. What sort of person tinkers with magitech? Not many, so Flynt does openly.
He's a troubled fellow with a lot of potential, he simply just needs some direction in life. Right now he's living for the moment, but that's not satisfying, despite his multi-million gil fortune, money is just an asset to him. Flynt lacks personal growth, actual conflict. If only he had someone or something in his life worth his time, perhaps the crownless king would find a purpose outside his throne room prison.

Current Residence
[CLASSIFIED]
Before Dalamud's Fall
Birth and childhood (0-10)
Raised to be the heir of his father's corporate empire, Flynt was a spoiled child, put through rigorous schooling despite numerous shortcomings.
Teen Years
Received a formal education in [REDACTED] until the age of 24, where he graduated and set off for new lands with some of his father's fortune.
After Dalamud's Fall
Adulthood
Flynt found his way to Eorzea after word of disaster, "Well damn, looks like that's the cheapest boat to set sail on now." seemed to be the only thought that crossed his mind before boarding. After some time, Flynt established himself a small yet successful business in Ul'Dah as a clothing outfitter where he gathers funds for his high standard of living. It was only when he realized how prevalent violence was in Eorzean culture that he took his profits and invested them into a pair of blades to enter himself in numerous competitions around the continent. Balancing an enterprise of luxuries and combat, the Flynt you know and love/hate was formed.
A Realm Reborn (Present, 23)
Flynt now sits upon his empire of swag, earning his place among the upper class and splurging his fortune on pointless investments to bolster his ego; be it through gambling it away in the Manderville Golden Saucer or hosting million dollar events for ambitious adventurers like you to partake in.
