Likes
- Ishgard, all of it - its culture, its politics, its history, its arts, anything remotely related to the city-state likely bears Aronaux's approval.
- History - Aronaux considers himself something of a historical scholar, taking after his mother in that regard.
- Literature - Aronaux is an avid fan of fictional literature, and is something of a novelist and playwright by hobby. None of his works have yet been published.
Dislikes
- Gladiatorial duels - Already uncomfortable with the idea of trials by combat in his native city of Ishgard, Aronaux cannot fathom why Ul'dah so proudly maintains the Coliseum.
- The Dravanian Horde
- The Empire of Garlemald
- The culture of Limsa Lominsa - Aronaux finds it rather rude and uncivilized, and is a supporter of the Admiral's efforts to rein in the population and impose the force of law on pirates, criminals, and scum.
- Gridania - Foreign, yet unnervingly familiar.
Favorites

Religion
Aronaux is a devout defender of the Holy Ishgardian Othodox Church of Halone, and recent events in regards to the influx of foreigners and Dragonsong revelations have not stirred his faith significantly.

Positive
[Virella Douront] - After meeting her in a chance encounter at a small tavern in the hamlet surrounding the First Dicasterial Observatorium of Aetherial and Astrological Phenomena, Aronaux held a rather high and positive opinion of the astrologian, and considered her a righteous and pious woman. In the following moon, however, he would discover that Virella had been exiled from the Holy See of Ishgard for bearing the child of an Ala Mhigan highlander, and for but a moment his opinion of the woman was lowered extensively. Yet after much contemplation and a second conversation with Virella Douront and mutual friend Riven Astralyas, Aronaux has concluded that Virella's exile was unreasonably harsh for such a common offense, and he has become wary of the priest behind her banishment and the Holy Ishgardian Orthodox Church of Halone as a whole.

Music Themes
Note: Vocal Songs are attributed themes in which the lyrics seem to relate or partially relate to the character. They don't mean to resemble the character's voice. The instrumental themes are meant to give an idea of the atmosphere around the character. Songs with character names (example: "Tidus's Theme") are NOT meant to indicate that the character is like the theme owner. I just find the instruments and melody fitting, not the character the song was originally addressed to.
