[This is updated frequently; check back for new details!] Time (From Inception) Desmond in one paragraphDesmond Argonar was a man of honor and loyalty. He commanded respect through his stature, strength, and wealth. He was a paragon of virtue; a knight of the Goddess. Presently Desmond has removed himself from his paragon outlook and is impelled by something else; a far greater cause than he can accomplish within the bounds of the law. Aliases
Through hours of laborious venture into the world, Desmond's strength is reflected through his chiseled body. Medium length, unkempt yet styled blonde hair shines over his tan body. He stands tall for a midlander, around 5'8". People who are sailors or lived a life of sea-faring will immediately recognize Paul's body as that of a sailor. In addition to his bodily appearance, his eyes are deep blue, nearly matching the sea he was raised on. Desmond was a man filled with darkness and sorrow due to extreme loss of loved ones. He is not corruptible; with a very strong mind he follows his own moral compass. Paul is calm and collected; focused. His driving force is his love and concern for his family and, most notably, his wife. He has no weakness. His emotions are sealed tight. Desmond is fiercely loyal to his family and his wife. Some say has even executed sailors on his ship for coveting his wife and acting on those desires.

Desmond's main military strength is his sword. He lent his blade as aid after the Calamity, scouring the land of evil Imperials and feral beasts. Though not violent in nature, Paul will not hesitate to pierce the body of a threatening foe, especially one who disrespects women. A man of a few different talents, Paul will assume whatever role necessary to make sure he protects the Grand City States. Paul himself is nearly a martial weapon and the way he fights is almost like an elegant dance. His movements are precise and calculated, even suffering blows in order to expose his targets to the fatal edge of his blade or a crippling move in close quarter combat.
Desmond is a military man. He served the three Grand City States during and after the Calamity. Currently he serves the city states as an inspector that specializes in heinous sex crimes and child abductions. Before that, Paul was a sailor. His father owned a fleet of ships used to charter goods. After Paul's father passed away in sleep, he inherited the fleet. It was at sometime during the Calamity that all of it was lost; everything Paul loved was gone in an instant with no recollection of what happened and who he lost. All he knew is that something was missing and he knew naught of what it was. Please feel free to add your own gossip under PC! Common Gossip (Easily overheard)
Uncommon Gossip (Somewhat less common to overhear)[While this is uncommon gossip, if a character has been in a scenario to hear the gossip, then by all means use it =)]
Rare Gossip (Very difficult or rarely overheard)[Since these are said by people, they can of course be heard. However, they are rarely ever said and may not be used without permission. Thus they will not be acknowledged in RP.]
PC Gossip (Gossip from the characters of other players. Go on, add one!)
♥ 💑 ♥ Maiko Argonar: She was a ghost. Not an apparition, but something that haunted Paul. She was a remnant of his past, one he could not shake the feeling of having familiarity with. However, as every dream ended, so did the returning memory of her. It was an intense love from long ago that ended for unknown reasons. The sad truth: a curse meant that she could remember him, but he could not remember her. This went on until they met in the present; a strange investigative case brought them together. Deja vu sunk in for Paul. This mystery became more important than any other as he unraveled fragmented memories. Soon enough, Maiko stumbled into an area of Paul's home that held trinkets. One such trinket was a locket that he gave her shortly after their son, Rylan, was born. The locket was a silver heart that contained a picture of their happy family. This was the link from past to present. It brought his memories flooding back and his love for Maiko was remembered. Despite it being a very difficult trial, it forged their love into an unbreakable steel. Reunited in the present, they are ready to not only move forward with their love, but together they will exact vengeance on the one who sought to disrupt the peace they once had. If their entire relationship were to be summed up in one word it would be: Always. ♥ Rylan Argonar: Rylan is the joy made between Maiko and Desmond. Due to very tragic circumstances Desmond raised him on his own from three months old. Many years later, the family of three (Maiko, Desmond, and Rylan) have been reunited. This presents the challenge now of rebuilding their family. ♥ Jasmine Argonar: Formerly Jasmine Archer. She is the biological daughter of Jurmin and Esrith Archer who are now deceased by the hands of the man in black. Her parents were slavers of adolescent girls who were sold into escort services. Jasmine was no exception. As Desmond worked on this case with Maiko, the two developed a bond with Jasmine. After her parents were killed, the couple adopted Jasmine as their own. Jasmine reminds Desmond much of Maiko when he first found her and adopted her. While he does have a fondness for the young girl, the special attachment is a quality reserved for Maiko; she is first in his life. ● Rihxo Matoi: Paul met this miqo'te before the Calamity. It was really a chance meeting. He was on his way to the Drowning Wench when she collided with him and nearly fell off the upper decks. There was something about this young girl that caught his attention and he tends to watch over her. Even after meeting her in the Quicksand he has not placed her in his past, but something about her tugs at his memories as he tries to piece this mysterious feeling together. He again feels the need to keep an eye on her, especially after what she shared with him. Indeed, any harm to Rihxo (physically or emotionally) is tantamount to touching Paul's eye. ● R'miah Tosh: Yes, another female miqo'te. R'miah was met in Wineport when Paul was out for a stroll. He also met some members of the 81st. This miqo'te seemed to catch Paul's interest. As he by chance met with her a second time, the interest was not unfounded. There are a couple mysteries around her that he offered his assistance with. Aside from that, he found her surprisingly insightful and most endearing. ● Odette Saoirse: One who itched at Paul's curiosity, Odette is a highlander female that Paul didn't hesitate to flirt with when first meeting and, at times, may still make suggestive comments. Her views and morality have influenced Paul's decisions on more than one occasion. She is one that Paul knows will not question his deepest views on justice and how to attain it.
Dreams of the Times Long Since Passed
Desmond can be anywhere, really. He's from Limsa Lominsa, so is there often. His work takes him all over and can be found at taverns. What I am looking for/interested in:
What I will NOT RP:
Other NotesForgive me if I don't use Eorzean terms. It's enough to remember my character's age and height and weight in real world terms, let alone Eorzean. I follow the KISS principle; Keep It Simple Stupid. When my character speaks, it will be in a way that is easily understood by anyone. Not all understand archaic English. While I avoid terms such as "awesome" and "gnarly" I do use somewhat modernized English. ((This sample is what OOC text will look like.)) Although I use that format, it's only when I'm in RP with someone I'm RPing with. If I send someone a /tell and we aren't engaged in RP, it's pretty obvious it's OOC without (( )). I mainly use it in Skype RP as I copy and paste it for stories and I'd like to easily filter out the OOC content. |
