Basic Info

Appearance: (To be extended.) Tall and lean with pale skin, tired and vacant green eyes and blonde hair flecked with greying strands. A thin scar travels from his hairline to his cheekbone and a small golden clasp adorns his right ear. He carries himself in a manner befitting the discipline of a former knight, though in more casual settings he might be seen slouching against a wall or perhaps with an Ishgardian rosary in hand.

Sexuality: Homosexual.

Religious Beliefs: Crisiet was brought up to adhere to the teachings of Halone. Even after leaving Ishgardian soil, Crisiet's beliefs are far too entrenched to let go. Rather, it is Ishgard's methods of worship that he has chosen to question.

Parentage: Ser Therouanne Liautroix (Father) & Yaelle Liautroix (Mother). Crisiet does not know if either still live, but hopes they have not disowned him completely.

History

(WORKING ON IT.)

Personality

Serious minded, bored and often times scathing, Crisiet tends to clash with others quite often. He prefers to be to the point about most situations and his pessimistic outlook on life is punctuated by moments of self-depreciation and sarcastic criticism.

His blunt and anti-social nature seems geared towards pushing others away, yet he has shown a capacity to care when it matters most.

Past

- Therouanne and Yaelle Liautroix - Throughout his childhood, Crisiet was closer to his mother than to his father.

- Aennois Iseterre (Deceased) - Crisiet's closest friend and lover, tried for heresy along with the rest of his family at Witchdrop. Though innocent, the nature of the trial in question meant that his death was inevitable. It sparked the events leading to Crisiet's escape and exile.

- Coralise Iseterre - Thaumaturge, adventurer and exile. She is Crisiet's only surviving friend from his past. She fled Ishgard long ago, craving a life of adventure and excitement over the life her parents had planned for her. Ultimately this decision saved her life, and she aided Crisiet's escape.

- Inquisitor Ouraux (Deceased) - The inquisitor that held the trial of the Iseterre family at Witchdrop. Crisiet murdered him in rage and vengeance.

- Inquisitor Arkwright - Ruthlessly devout, she delivered the sentence that was to befall Crisiet.

- Ser Louistiaux Braitognet - Knight Captain and mentor to Crisiet in his younger years. It was after he fell in battle that Crisiet took his place.

- Crisiet's comrades - Ser Aennois Iseterre, Ser Aulie Ouraux, Ser Marie Longfield, Squires Oscarioux Pierremons and Francis Griswall. All but Crisiet and Aennois perished in a skirmish against the Dravanian horde shortly after the calamity. Crisiet still blames himself for their deaths.

Rumours

Common Rumours - Simply asking around would yield such responses.

- "The Ishgardian fellow? Came here about three summers ago now, I think. He's odd. Doesn't talk much, but great at flower arrangement!" - A Botanist.

- "Don't cause no trouble fer no one, but 'e'd do well to work on that damn attitude o' 'is." - Disgruntled Guard.

- "Looks like 'e's seen a ghost, don't 'e?" - Barmaid.

Uncommon Rumours - More localised to the Shroud and Gridania.

- "I saw him when he first arrived, yes. Quite a mess, armoured and carrying a lance. He wasn't much of a talker then, either. The woman with him was a strange one too." - A Quiverman

- "Sometimes I see him sat on his lonesome, whisperin' to his necklace or somethin'. Bloke is bonkers." - Moonkeeper Merchant in Gridania.

Rare Rumours - Such information would require contacts within Ishgard and House Durendaire to obtain. Please offer discussion with me OOC before claiming to know anything here IC.

- "I heard that a prize chocobo was stolen by some heretic! Chocobo theives should be hung from the neck." - Concerned chocobo-keep.

- "The poor bastard was in love with some knight that was thrown into the Witchdrop. Killed the inquisitor that held the trial. Quite the scandal, it's no wonder they keep it quiet." - A low ranking squire of House Durendaire.

- "He's a heretic! Ishgard wants his head. For murder of an Inquisitor, no less. Aye, he used to be a knight-captain as loyal as the rest of us. Just goes to show, doesn't it? Dravania can sink it's claws into anyone" - An Ishgardian Knight.

PC Rumours

If a character has met Crisiet and has something to say about him, feel free to add it here!

• "He hates many people, and he may even hate himself. However, I do not think he hates everyone as much as he wants to. Some hidden sense of honor or decency drives him to be a good man to his allies." -Kiht Jakkya
