Basic Info
Alueaux Dunant is an Ishgardian Dragoon in service to the Holy See of Ishgard. Dedicated to the cause of his city state he has routinely placed his life on the line in its defence. Hailing from a militarised family; lesser nobles in Ishgard’s political structure. He is known to have little patience for other races deemed unbelievers; especially those who are quick to criticise his religion or beliefs. Despite his apparent misgivings to ‘Unbelievers’ however; he is known to show secretive curiosity In them from time to time.
History
Born into the lesser nobility of House Dunant Alueaux spent his youth being groomed into the Ishgardian way of life – his father Dereniart Dunant having three children with Ellia Dunant, Alueaux being the eldest of the three; his sibilings currently reside safely within the walls of the city of Ishgard – so far protected from the worst of the Dragonsong war. Even as the calamity struck in reality his day to day living failed to change, the only notable event occuring being the failed defense of the Stone Vigil; an event Alueaux feels some guilt for allowing to happen despite the massive losses incurred on the Vigil's defenders.
With House Dunant being open supporters of House Durendaire within the Ishgardian Political structure for the vast majority Alueaux has served be it passively or actively with the household in its endeavours within the region of Corethas. However House Durendaire’s more recent open posturing to the use of adventurers to supplement its forces has caused some distaste to his families strictly more nationalistic views on how Ishgard should be run.
Passing the trials of the Dragoons aged 21; he severed his former relationship with Virella Douront; a childhood sweetheart and further fortifying his faith within the Orthodox church of the Holy See. Seven years have now passed from that day, while little progress has been made in the war the exposure to the outside world through the visitors to Corethas are beginning to temper his opinions; and with the more recent loss of his fathers brother - has been forced to take a more vested interest in the plight of his Cousins on the far side of the family in order to maintain reputation.
Appearance
Standing at 6 Fulms 8 Elms Alueaux is towards the taller spectrum for his race; his body lean and athletic as expected by his profession with very little in the form of unneeded muscle mass or fat. His pale complexion reflected in his near constant adornment of Drachen Mail; armour which unless within Ishgard is worn exclusively be it alone or underneath a variety of robes, the little personalisation afforded to his apparel.
Long flowing white hair can be seen when his armet is not worn, either hanging freely or tied up for practicality. A lone scar is present on his otherwise smooth face; a reminder of past relationships and fiery endings rather then war. It is not unusual for certain exposed sections of his body to be remarkably more tanned then the rest; the exposure to the sun reflecting snow of Corethas and dragonfire being the culprit. Two ceremonial clasps can be found adorning each of his ears - bearing the sigils of both his house and House Durendaire, further inspection would reveal no less than a master smith being responsible for their creation.
