Hair & Eyes
Garen has sandy brown hair, usually cut short, and pale green eyes set against naturally tanned skin. He resembles a heavily built individual of the sands.
Physique & Markings
Garen is a well-built individual, with a body designed for war. He has two visible scars on his face, one over his right eye and another on his left cheek. When bare-chested, he has multiple scars - the most notable is a circular, pale scar right over his heart. The upper nape on his back has a jet-black, burned brand familiar to those who study the Battle of Carteneau and the disappearance of the Warriors of Light.
Hygiene & Attire
Garen attempts to remain clean, but mostly at the insistence of his wife. It is not uncommon for him to go upwards of a week or more without bathing, and while he attempts to keep himself smelling good, it is often overpowered by the scent of blood and steel. At the minimum he regularly tends his teeth and hair...
Personality
Psychological Profile
Garen is an often boisterous, often cheerful force of energy and nature. He throws himself into whatever he must do with glee and reckless abandon. He harbors something of a martyr complex and won't hesitate to dive in front of devastating blows to save his allies, but his from-the-front mindset and zeal of life does its best to win over those around him.
Voice
Garen is loud and emphatic, sucking the air out of the room and into his lungs upon entry. His voice settles approximately in the baritone region and is deep while not being too overpowering, save for its volume. (For the interested, he sounds just a bit deeper than Christopher Sabat's depiction of All Might from the anime My Hero Academia.)
Philosophy & Mannerisms
Garen doesn't put a lot of faith in philosophy or religion. He has lived his life at the edge of a sword's blade and that doesn't leave a lot for philosophising. While he fights with the best wishes of the realm in mind, and attempts to do good rather than harm, he isn't the type to think deeply about actions or hesitate beyond a few moments.

Above Average:
Average: Traditional Battlefield Tactics
Low: Self-Preservation Instincts
Non-Combat Abilities
Charismatic: Garen is a gregarious individual and unknowingly tends to inspire loyalty and courage in others through his own self-sacrifice and compassion for others.
Business-Savvy: Born in Ul'dah, Garen has learned the value of a gilbit and is a difficult negotiator, having a skilled head for business and operation.
The Power to Transcend Words (unknown): As most Echo-Users do, Garen can understand every language. However, Garen is unaware of this. As far as he's concerned, since he returned from the Carteneau Plains everyone has spoken the same language. He is similarly unaware of his own ability to adjust his tongue to fluently speak any language he encounters. When told such, he is likely to dismiss the explanation as nonsense.
Combat Abilities
The Power to Transcend Mortality: This advanced Echo ability grants Garen an unreal resistance to damage, ensuring that it will take that much longer for him to be downed in combat.
Instinctual Combat: A life of battle has left Garen skilled in the arts of war, and whether on a battlefield or in an arena, he acts with sharpened instincts. This reduces his reaction time in battle to nearly zero, ensuring he's fast enough to at least interact in the worst situations.
The Inner Beast: Having possession of a Soulstone, Garen is capable of interacting with the beast within a warrior's soul. He can harness this to ignore the damage from blows further (though it doesn't restore the wounds) and strike with incredible force.
OOC Note
Garen, as with most of the members of Fireborn, occasionally uses a house-built combat system set up within the guild. This system is used to create a tabletop-style experience for people within the game. If interested, please inquire!

ღ♦✔ - Liliana Stone - Beyond Time Itself. Garen and Liliana (Lily) have endured the hells of war together. Before the Calamity, they were an innocently naive and flirtatious couple, but afterwards they had become so much more. First lovers who crossed seas of time to find each other, then parents facing off against the tremendous forces of the world, then a married couple taking their own names and cutting their own paths through fate. While the two seem incompatible at first - one, an enormous hunk of meat and strength, the other a fount of magical force and intelligence - they compensate well for the others flaws and have found beauty and love in their opposites. They have one child together...

✔ - Roysia Stone - The Firstborn Daughter. Roysia was born with the incredible power of the Echo, a result from Liliana's own acquisition of the power while pregnant with her. She seemed very much a child with a great destiny, and Garen has been absolutely smitten with her since the day she was born. Garen has an incredible weak spot for his daughter, and no force in the world - not even Liliana - can spur him to action much like her danger. Recently she returned much older than she was before, to the point that it seems unusual that she'd be the child of the two. Yet, she is still her father's daughter to her very blood, and there is not a thing in the world Garen would not do for his little girl.

♦✔ - Z'attana Mitnu, now Attana Stone - Destiny has a strange way of placing someone where they need to be at the time they're needed. So it was with the Miqo'te girl who needed to learn how to fight, and the swordsman who taught her the path. Atty, as she came to be known, never really stuck with the art of the sword, but their meeting in the Bloodsands started a trusted friendship that endures to this day. He assisted with training her after she lost her sight, and the woman disappeared with the rest of the family during the start of the Second Garlean War. When they returned, Atty had at some point taken the family name, effectively making her the adopted aunt of Roysia and sister to Liliana and Garen.

RP Limits
I like to consider myself a flexible player who is willing to commit to a number of different types of scenes and role-play scenarios, but even I have my limits. If something is on the play list, assume it means yes, as long as it's within the context of the current play or ongoing plot. No's are typically a hard no, and it means don't ask.

RP Hooks
While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. Longer plots that are meant to run for more than a few quick RP's, please feel free to send me a tell so we can work out a good reason for our characters to get to know one another. I'm always looking for RP, unless I'm actively spamming PvE content.

Player Note
There is a lot of information on this character wiki, but it is by no means completely comprehensive. There are chunks of backstory that are left intentionally vague so that details can be later added as developed through creative writing or in role-play revelation. Feel free to use Common or Uncommon rumors freely, if you want to use a Rare Rumor as a plot hook or to spark RP, I would ask that you send me a tell first, to make certain it's alright.
