Arzilia Rausten

Wandering Dragoon

Character

General

Arzilia is an explorer that came from the northern lands of Ishgard in order to improve herself. She is a former Ishgardian Dragoon. Arzilia wanders from city-state to city-state taking contracts as a mercenary, kills horrible beasts and helps the people in need. A bright woman, friendly to all, almost seeming too carefree.

Moniker/Nicknames:

₪ Sweeping Blonde Gale: A moniker circulated among the taverns and inns of Eorzea. Many patrons and passersby have seen her run in and run out of the establishments as if she were a small gust that came in through the window. They agreed that when she works she rarely stops for idle chat and soon her various travels have spread the moniker across the city-states.

₪ Wandering Dragoon: The weapon most commonly seen on her is a sharp spear that gives away her expertise in combat. Merchants travel almost as regularly as she does and not few of them have admitted being helped in many occasions by her timely arrival on the roads.

₪ Dancing Lightning: Also called Dancing Dragoon, Dancing Knight or just the Dancing Blonde among her comrades and by ishgardians. As she trained militarily Arzilia proved quick of feet and her arms handled the lance deftly. Besides using her weapon to parry and block attacks some have said that her rapid movements around her target seems like a dance.

₪ Arzi: A short nickname only her friends say to refer to her. She feels somewhat uncomfortable when people not that close to her call her that way.

Residence:

Arzilia currently stays most nights on the road along with her chocobo, Maximilian, and at inns whenever she is in a settlement or major city.

Personality

Charismatic and sassy. Arzilia, whenever you can catch her, shows to be very easy to deal with and very open to conversation. She enjoys making witty comments and often flirts. Also likes having a drinking buddy to talk with whenever she stops for a rest, and has an uncanny ability to dodge personal questions, but opens up once you do too or she deems it necessary. Her demeanor and speech may let on she's smarter than she looks and has had more than a few interactions with nobility. If you leave a good impression, Arzilia will certainly watch over you.

Abilities and Skills

General

Since she was a girl Arzilia had desired nothing but becoming a proud dragoon of Ishgard. The spear is her characteristic weapon and handles it with deadly efficiency. The people that have seen her fight know she can soar through the air as the legends tell and pierce through her enemies with her lance. She also proves expert in hand to hand combat and the sword, being able to wield other weapons too but to a lesser extent.

Weapons

₪ Spear: No person can hope to become a Dragoon without mastering this weapon. Arzilia trained rigorously in the now frozen lands of Ishgard as a knight and adopted an aggressive style of fighting, using the long weapon in long, fluid series of attacks.

₪ Fists: Due to her appearance, Arzilia often had trouble in proving her resilience, expertise and intimidating. She proved others her worth with results and fought with many a man and woman that dared underestimate her with her bare hands to make the point that she needed no weapon to defend herself either.

₪ Sword: The ways of the sword and shield only came to Arzilia later on after moving south into Eorzea. In a prolonged stay in the Jewel of the Desert, Ul'dah, Arzilia learned to wield the sword with the Gladiators and thought of it an inspiring weapon. Due to her resolve, Arzilia enjoyed also using a style that focused on protecting rather than killing up front. Her style with the sword, however, is visibly adapted from her skill with the spear, moving her body fluidly between movements and striking quickly and with precision.

Magic

₪ Healing: During her travels in Gridania, the Wandering Dragoon learned of her potential in magic and focused on using it at first for the aid of others and herself. Injuries and death were inevitable and she also knew well of the dangers of her occupation and mission. Though far from being an expert healing mage, Arzilia knows enough to keep herself and allies alive if she acts fast enough.

Tendencies

Likes ₪ Cold, snow, rain. ₪ Alcohol. Like any other warrior, she knows a good drink at the right time can heal a weary soul. ₪ Finding good people and befriending them. ₪ Reading and taking care of her weapons and armor. ₪ Riding chocobos. ₪ Dancing and playing games.

Dislikes ₪ Heat to some extent. ₪ Betrayal and evil intentions. ₪ Pessimistic people. She often tries to cheer them.

Other ₪ Alignment: Neutral Good ₪ Vice(s): Enjoys sweet and salty snacks. May not let the mug go. ₪ Favorite Food: Stuffed Artichoke ₪ Favorite Drink: Mulled tea, Frozen Spirits and Triple Cream Coffee. ₪ Favorite Color: Blue and silver.
