If a writer or poet were to put words to describe Dragojev, it would only take several moments before they would say that the Hyur before them was wrought-iron made manifest, a will sharpened and honed to that of steel and fire coursing through his blood. In less flowery terms, standing at 5 fulms and 10 ilms, weighing approximately 173 Ponz (One Hundred and Seventy-Three Ponze) Dragojev's build gives the gridanian-born Lancer an athletic appearance. His brown hair with white highlights adds an aura of mystique; messy and kept to a certain length in a fashion that complements his facial features. In spite of his travels, the Hyur still shares in common with other Midlanders, his skin being fair and healthy. His eyes are reminiscent of the very colors that Gridanian's forest is well known for, a vibrant dark green.
Jewelry, Scars & Markings: The Wanderer wears rather simple jewelry compared to most, a pendant necklace, a sunstone choker and brass ear cuffs. In addition and thanks to his fighting style, the Wanderer's body possesses many a scar borne from hard-earned experience and trials by combat during his travels. Primarily centered around his torso and two scars on his face.
Clothing: Dragojev wears clothing similar to what one might call traditional clothing of the Hyur when relaxing. When donned and strapped to his armour, he wears a suit of scale armor with the colors of the famous Gridanian woodlands.
A Wanderer by choice, the Hyur is a self-admitted adventurous sort, and given his history has a tendency in being approached by merchant caravans that seek his services as part of the guard detail. Those who are thorough and knowledgeable in body language would notice that the Wandering Lancer keeps a close eye to his surroundings, alert and aware with a casual grace that belays his readiness. In spite of it, he is a relatively stoic man when observed from afar, polite and sociable when approached by strangers, and friendly and even jovial to those he trusts enough.
Likes
Children -- Helping caravans with children has made the Wanderer good at dealing with children, enjoying his time with them.
Family -- Having been an Orphan, he has no family to speak of outside of perhaps the elderly Orphan Matron, Mother Miounne and the Lancer's Guildmaster.
Fighting -- Combat is not something unknown to the Hyur, so fighting to protect and defend what's right is as natural as breathing for the Wanderer.
Food & Cooking -- Anything from Steak to Vegetables he'll eat with no issue and thanks to his travels, he has gained a considerable talent in the art of cooking. Following recipes or experimenting with ingredients on his own, he does it all.
Travelers -- Due to his travels, the wanderer is prone to giving fellow travelers on the road a chance first, always mindful due to to previous experience with bandits trying to pose as merchants.
Dislikes
Needless Cruelty -- "Cruelty? A blight on this world if you ask me. There are better things to do than to be cruel."
The Garlean Empire -- "The Empire as it stands is clear in being tyrannical and iron-fisted, individual Garleans I have no issue with."
Quirks and Vices
Helpful -- He's always up to help those in need despite being a complete stranger to some.
Social Introvert -- The Wanderer tends to prefer quiet contemplation but does not shy from conversation or being social when it's called for.
Self-Preservation -- To those that know him personally and know of him, the Wandering Lancer has a reputation in having an utter lack of self-preservation, ultimately at his own detriment to do what he considers is right.
Trivia
Favorite Food: Doman Fried Rice & Khou Shui Ji

Dragojev knew only a fair few of the Kindred free company, having signed on fully with the group after a rather confusing day, not really in the state of mind to ponder on the pros and cons of such an act. Despite this, he made his best to honor his commitment despite the circumstances it was brought in. After the free company's sudden bankruptcy, he went with the few that remained to the eventual formation of the Winter's Wake.
Winter's Wake is the free company that formed after the dissolution of the Kindred, the Hyur knowing a fair few of the people involved and those he considered acquaintances and friends. It has been months since he has last seen them due to his impromptu travels, despite his absence and probability of not being a member anymore, he still considers most of the group a friend and ally.

Altani is one of the handful of folks that he first met when he first stepped foot into the Kindred's bar after an arduous and long journey. The Khan and him used to be friendly, a recent development has evolved the relationship into something more between the pair.
Kri'sie is a long-time friend of Dragojev, the two having met in Ul'dah, the Hyur meeting her slightly intoxicated self leaning against a wall and from there a friendship was born. The two eventually reunited after parting ways, the Roegadyn and Hyur catching up with zeal, evolving to what it is now.
Alia is one of the handful of folks that he first met when he first stepped foot into the Kindred's bar after an arduous and long journey. The two are somewhat on friendly terms and seems to be growing into a budding friendship.
Batbayar is a person who used to confuse Dragojev, despite their interaction ending on good terms, the Wanderer had no issue with the Au Ra of a man, having seen him as a friend before his disappearance. The Hyur knows not where the man may be but hopes the best.
Fenrir is one of the handful of folks that he first met when he first stepped foot into the Kindred's bar after an arduous and long journey. Despite her nature to embarrass and tease other members of the Kindred, he's seen the more friendly, kind and playful side of her and sees her as a friend.
Drago and Hayzell first met during a game at the bar, becoming acquaintances of sorts throughout it. Hayz and him are on good terms, growing into a comfortable friendship.
Jilan is one of the handful of folks that he first met when he first stepped foot into the Kindred's bar after an arduous and long journey. Jilan was one of his first relationship, the Miqo'te and the Wanderer having gone through quite the number of things together, their flame having since faded but remaining friendly enough.
K'aila is another person who slightly confuses Dragojev at times, despite this their interactions end on good terms. Most of the time. Sees the rowdy and flirty Miqo'te as a good friend.
First time Drago met Yuki was down in the Kindred's bar at a party game before its closure, the woman's friendly and cheerful attitude cementing his view on her being a relatively good person. Has seen nothing to indicate otherwise.
Dragojev barely knew the former Kindred Luminary known as Nailah, having met her briefly before being wrapped up into signing on with the Kindred in a veritable tide that could not be stopped. Once upon a time, she gave him advise on how to deal with a particular situation that neatly resolved it. He owes her greatly for it.
Formerly one of the Chosen of the Kindred, and one that Dragojev barely knew, having met her briefly enough to recognize that she tends to tease and is highly affectionate with Sarangerel Kahkol.
Formerly one of the Chosen for the Kindred and the first member of the Council the Wanderer met before the rest. Hardly knows the man outside of the friendly demeanor he's seen in the short time the duo have interacted.

◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely!
■ "He's always been asked to accompany caravans a day or two after arriving, most tend to like his friendly attitude and aptitude towards children. Helps that despite any injuries he suffers through the odd jobs he takes up with caravans, he always puts others over himself. Idiotic it may be but to some it's endearing, I suppose." - Ul'dahn Merchant
■ "He is a blessing by the very Navigator he proclaims to follow, I always try my damnedest to get him to be part of the escort for the caravan I'm part of." - Traveling Merchant
◢ Uncommon Rumors -A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first!
■ "Dragojev? He's a quiet enough man, very unorthodox with his fighting style despite the Guildmaster repeatedly driving the point home that it'll only drive him closer to the grave." - Gridania Lancer's Guild Member
◢ Rare Rumors -Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using!
■ "Dey claim him to be a simple wanderer but no man fights the way 'e does wit'out no reason, no Siree. Dunno wat ta call it and frankly, I dunno whether or not to call him a man or beast 'cause o' it." - Unknown Captured Bandit
■ "Honestly, the man is slightly unhinged with the way he fights. I know no other Lancer who fights the way he does." - Unknown Wood Wailer

Woodman's Skill. A misguided youth spent adrift and in the woods much to the consternation of the Matron Mother has gifted the Hyur with honed senses and trained skills, lending to his ability as a Lancer.
Swift as a Coursing River. The Hyur is considered to be tall for a Midlander such as he, however in spite of his tall stature his build is not muscular like a Highlander's. The Wandering Lancer's body is built for endurance, agility and swiftness, more than capable of keeping at bay beasts with the razor sharp point of his spear.
Tooth and Nail. Should the Hyur find himself without his weapon of choice, it would be most unwise to dismiss his lethality in unarmed combat. Having adrift to the forests as a child, through grit, tooth and nail he has survived encounters with minor quadrupeds, the evidence of such a childhood upon his chest amongst the myriad of other evidence that told the trials he'd undergone in life.
Passive
Will of Iron. Due to his bizarre state of being to most and upbringing, the Hyur possesses a rather remarkable sense of determination and will in spite of the obstacles before him.
Detect. A gift given from his time spent through Gridania's shrouded forests, his sight and hearing have been honed to a sharp point. It lends itself in making the Hyur a hard target to sneak upon.
Resistances
Night Chills. The temperature in the Black Shroud lowers significantly as the sun does, acclimatizing those who choose to wander in the darkness. Dragojev can stand colder temperatures than many, though arctic temperatures are still lethal as with most.
Weaknesses
Lack of Self. An Orphan that should have died, a life saved from the clutches of Death. Dragojev fundamentally lacks a sense of self, and it shows prominently in how he fights and behaves.

Player Information
■ I've spent several years roleplaying across different games and platforms. These include but are not limited to: Star Wars: The Old Republic, World of Warcraft, Forum based RP and many more. I do try my best in incorporating other folks into my RP whenever possible, yet I am only human and may trip and fail at it. So do excuse if I may be a bit terse when things don't take off. That said, if somehow I am ruining an atmosphere in any way or fashion, notify me as soon as possible so I can rectify it.
■ For Combat in Roleplay:: Generally, I prefer a mixture of rolls and free form fighting. Emotes detailing the force behind an attack, weight and power help incredibly when detailing the strikes and movements. Yes, this may be a fantasy game, but I prefer realism when it comes to fights within the game that we all play.
■ Concerning Romance RP:: Dragojev as it stands is bi-curious in a certain way, what that is left unsaid to be discovered through RP. That said, he will not ERP with anyone for the sake of ERP unless there is reason for him to do so that trumps his concern of becoming a father without having settled down from his wandering. If entering into a relationship with Dragojev, I will expect to know this person quite well OOC'ly due to the personal and emotional ties that Dragojev will develop, and I would rather not RP a saddened Dragojev due to someone randomly losing interest in the game or RP.
■ I will play mature content and themes (violence, sexuality, drug / alcohol use) as long as they're logical in a plot-driven encounter. Coarse and excessive language. Temporary injury and incapacitation. Temporary imprisonment. Most walk-up encounters.
■ Ask about long-term and/or permanent injury and disfigurement. Long-term captivity or imprisonment.
■ I won't play permanent character death or rape plots.
Disclaimer
■ If an aspect of RP makes you uncomfortable in a scene we're playing, please send me a /tell, letting me know. Communication is very important, more important than potentially keeping immersion.
