Opening

"I don't waste time. If I want something done I do it myself." - Aaron Glacier

Brief Description- Aaron is a Ex Rogue from La Noscea, who was a member of the guild since he was 14, but left after an incident that happened on his 18th birthday. He stands 5"11 and weighs around 160 ponz. He was born with snow white eyes and black hair. But after a traumatic event that occurred right before he left the Rogues guild, suffering from Mary Antoinette Syndrome his hair turned white from the extreme stress of the event. Remnants of his black hair can be seen as highlights at the ends. He has a lean not overly muscular body and pale skin as well as a scar on his face, origin it came from unknown to anyone but Aaron. He is generally seen dressed in black clothing, and loose hanging tabards like the gloam tabard. He generally carries a sheath with sets of twin swords/daggers on his lower back as well. Many of them about as long as his forearm if not a little longer. Though many assume them daggers Aaron calls them shortswords. He doesn't enjoy fighting and would rather avoid it if he can, hoping the sheathe full of dagger he carries is enough to deter most would be enemies.

Voice - Similar to Steve Burton

PERSONALITY - Aaron is a blunt about reality, quiet at times and reluctant. He talks big as a catalyst to hide how reluctant and timid he is in reality. When he wants something done he does it himself as he doesn't like relying on others. He prefers to keep out of business that isn't his own and prefers to avoid unnecessary drama around him. His general response to things is "not interested sorry" or "Thanks for keeping me in mind, but I'll pass". He's not however afraid of people but will not speak unless spoken to, and even then he doesn't say much more than a couple sentence most of the time. His attitude fluctuates depending on how he perceives those around him and thus can be nice and respectful to some and downright an ass to others. His main quirk however is that when stressed or annoyed he pulls lightly at his white hair and starts to sigh. He's prone to making jokes that aren't all the time friendly, smartass remarks behind people backs and even cursing furiously when angered. However over all Aaron is generally a reserved person with few problems that care to imprint on him. He is so non chalant about most things now he has even shown casualness to his ice aether freezing his own body up on occasion before he frees himself.

Fighting Style

(Aaron's blade sheathe which allows him to carry 3 pairs of twin blades at once, however the fourth and lowest slit remains empty almost all the time as Aaron doesn't carry more than 3 blades at once in general.)

Being a rogue before he left, Aaron is adept in knife fighting and close combat. He focuses more on disabling his enemies than killing, opting to attack the joints and flanks of his opponents before if needed going for the kill. However when he wants someone dead he wastes no time putting on a viscous offense aimed solely at the throat of the opposition. His dual wield style and lack of armor allows him to focus on all offense, accurate and fast strikes to his opponents preferring to bleed them out and disable rather than forceful dispatch. On occasion he will throw his blades at his enemies knees or shoulders with high accuracy and follow up with a thrust into their throat. He rather prefers getting around to the flanks and blindspots over head on combat but nevertheless his skills are decent enough for him to hold his own against stronger and multiple opponents for a time. He also is able to augment his blades with his natural ice affinity aether to enhance his skills to the point he can freeze some enemies solid and chill the blood as well. Although do to his terrible aether control he opts to avoid using any aether at all when fighting in fear he'll wound up freezing himself over.

Weapons & Abilities

Swords & Knives - Aaron is highly adept (yet not masterful) in the art of kenjutsu with swords and knife fighting. His ambudexterous trait and fast reflexes allow him to dual wield with equal strength on both sides eliminating a weak point of favoring one side over the other.

Aetherical Ice - despite rarely using it in fear of injuring himself due to lack of control over it Aaron has a affinity for ice aspect aether, this allows him to enhance his fighting style with ice attacks and defensive buffs as well as makes him highly tolerant of colder temperatures. However he has little know how of how to actually control it thus to be frank he rarely uses it unless in dire circumstances.

History

Childhood (1 - 14 years) - Aaron was born with jet black hair, the white hair a outcome of a traumatic event later in his life. He grew up a rather shy and reluctant individual in Limsa Lominsa. His mom would always wonder why he was so quiet and why he refused to go play with the other kids his age. His dad stayed out at sea as a soldier of the Maelstrom so they spent little time together. Aaron however even at a young age seemed to have a real solid grasp on reality. When something didn't go his way he wouldn't complain. He'd simply say he understood not everything goes as planned and with this attitude one would see Aaron as nihilistic about life when in reality he was just understanding about the troubles in the world. Instead of going around with others way of getting mad when something happened Aaron would just hope for better later on down the line. He also seemed to prefer the company of animals, especially dogs as they seemed to relate to how he felt better than any person he met.

He and his mother weren't the richest inhabitants of Limsa, in fact they were quite average class income wise. They spent a lot of time together, Aaron and his mom Iris would frequently explore the city just so Aaron could go out and see every sight with someone as he didn't enjoy the company of anyone else. However because of his mom letting Aaron stay solitary around only animals for company Aaron would develop a social awkwardness when it comes to people. He'd fail at regular conversations and was a little to blunt with his words often leading to altercations with other kids when he DID talk to them. This got him in fights and more often than not he'd be beaten up or jumped having a lack of experience with combat do to his solitary lifestyle. When he told his mom about it, though she was concerned for his well being and safety she would simply tell him he'd have to figure out a solution by himself. Because anymore condoning how he was would only make him more socially awkward and that it was too late for her to act on it (him being almost 14 around this time).

Over the next few months Aaron would begin to find alternative solution to solve his problem. From learning by himself how to sneak around and avoid people who didn't like him, to fast escapes and amateur parlour moves for evasivness

Relationships

Iconic Family (All deceased to Aaron's knowledge)

Iris Glacier (Mother) -

Cyrus Glacier (Father) -

FRIENDS

Aerostein Epitaph - One of Aaron's closest friends and perhaps the one he talks to the most. Aerostein seems to be the one who understands Aaron's personality the most despite knowing very little about him and his past. The two regularly hang out and it would seem they are best friends or close. Many of Aeros friends however question if Aaron really is a friend of Aero's especially Deverell Jinx after asking Aaron if he even cared whether Aerostein had died if his sword had impaled him a bit lower from the shoulder doing their duel to which Aaron just walked away without giving a reply. After Aerostein and Aaron patched up their relationship it would seem another obstacle lately has pushed them into borderline enemies but that would change once Aerostein happened to come across S'imba and Aaron in Zanr'ak exhausted and bruised. After they escaped the two would become friends again.

Nysarias Ylrah - Perhaps the closest person to Aaron out of everyone. Aaron met Nysarias in the quicksand while talking to another friend. The two share a close relationship that Aaron is so strong about he got extremely depressed when he couldn't save Nysarias from her imprisonment along with Zanz and Aran. Despite their family like relationship people assume that Aaron and Nysa have a "thing" going on between the two despite the fact that Nysa has already been in a relationship with a roe named Zanz even before she met Aaron. Nevertheless Aaron views the Miq'ote as "The sister I never had." And is very protective of her. Aaron doesn't seem to know how he truly feels about Nysa, at one point they grew so close they had even kissed and probably more, but Aaron had stopped for some reason. Probably because he doesn't want to jeopardize the relationship they already have as friends. However Aaron most likely himself doesn't even know what he views Nysa as.

Deverell Jinx - A male Miq'ote that loves to tease Aaron and call him "idiot." The two share an odd relationship, even though Deverell swears up and down he doesn't like Aaron even as a friend when the two get near each other it's obvious Deverell likes Aaron as a friend and is a bit watchful of him. However they have disagreements every so often.

Berrod Armstrong - Not exactly good friends but Aaron has a high deal of respect for Berrod especially after he and the Highlands tore each other to pieces in a fight. Though Berrod said it was a draw after the battle, Aaron however believes deep down he lost and thus wants a rematch. He also noticed he and Berrod act a lot alike. Aaron would eventually get work as an affiliate of Berrods FC "Agent" however so far Aaron seems to be the outcast being one of the only people with Berrods linkpearl who isn't a official member. Thus he seems to be under the impression everyone is judging him harder than they would each other. Aaron seems to have great respect for Berrod, the highlander being one of very few people Aaron will not readily talk back to or disrespect.

S'vett Tia - Not much to say on Aaron and S'vett friendship other than the fact Aaron likes to tease S'vett about his fear of monsters and how he's always running around the place like he's lost his mind. The two do hang out with another Miq'ote named S'imba when they have time though. Lately however Aaron hasn't really seen S'vett anymore even thinking the poor man died.

S'imba Tia - Aaron views S'imba as a borderline little brother after they're recent hanging out. At first the two didn't seem to like each other at the least but they've been getting acquainted with tolerating each other and even became friends. They would soon venture out together to lead a tag team assault on Zanr'ak against the Amaljee and their quest would take a wild turn after they got captured. Still even when it looked bleak the two stuck through the hard times and eventually escaped with Aerostein Epitaph and Crisiet. Because of S'imba Aaron would also become good friends with the Miq'ote Vash Ashford and Raik Samil.

Niklas Gran - Aaron came across Nik one day at the quicksand as the guy wanted Aaron to help kick start his FC. Once the thing was set up at first Aaron didn't seem to tolerate Niks upbeat attitude much even calling him a spoiled brat, but after a faire in Limsa Aaron began to see Nik wasn't as bad as he thought, even to the point Aaron would go up against a opponent Nik lost to in the grindstone just to make the guy happy. However when Nik challenged Aaron to a spar afterwards Aaron already deteriorating in fighting spirit and his resolve due to personality problems and a moral crisis, would take on Nik knowing he was in no mental condition to carry out a fight which would ultimately cause Aaron to lose. This loss pissed Aaron off and now he's got a bit of animosity towards Nik for beating him. Aaron steady believes Nik caught him on a bad day and will not rest until he gets his rematch. Their spar showcased the darker side of Aaron as during the bout Aaron yelled out to Nik enormously that the two are not equals and that Aaron is superior. It is unknown as of now on what's causing this attitude in Aaron. The two would eventually fight again after Nik saw Aaron beat Merrimack at grindstone, and Aaron almost was about to kill Nik for hurting his friend Nysarias. However after the battle Nik apologized, prompting Aaron to forgive him. The two seem to be on a good standing now. The two have a complicated relationship. Aaron even once readily tried to kill Niklas once he realized his own life was in danger. This leads most to wonder if Aaron despite being called Niks brother and friend, really views the man in the same light. After Niks death which was soon followed by his sister Rena shory after Aaron has grown quieter and more nihilistic on the reality of life and death.

Affiliations

The Rogues Guild - Aaron was recruited into the guild of Rogues stationed in Limsa at the young age of 14 after he was seen stealing gil from a group of pirate and later giving it to a homeless mother and her child starving on the street. They saw how good Aaron was with his stealth and evasive action as a young boy as well as his reason for doing it. Eventually he would be recruited into the guild and would grow up learning in the shadows their skills and ability. However at the age of 18, after a traumatic event involving Aaron and a member of the guild caused Aaron so much stress and fear that he suffered from Marie Antoinette syndrome Aaron would quit the guild quite some time before they went super secret and changed their ways.
