Overview

A Temple Knight, and Knight-Errant under House Fortemps.

Background

History

Guillemont joined the Temple Knights at an early age, like his father and older brother before him. He was assigned to the Heavy Cavalry division, and received his chocobo, Muffin. Naturally suited to the military life, he rose through the ranks relatively quickly. In time, he surpassed his brother Armont in rank. Through the Temple Knights he received training with a multitude of weapons, taking a particular liking to sword techniques. When he displayed the aptitude, he was also given training in the magical disciplines of Conjury and Thaumaturgy.

Eventually being stationed in Camp Dragonhead, Guillemont's exemplary service and earned him the attention of House Fortemps. Given an official title of Knighthood, Guillemont continued to serve at Camp Dragonhead and abroad until his aunt Christienna was accused of heresy. When the accusations were proven true at Witchdrop, the De'bayle family was put under heavy scrutiny. Shortly after, House Fortemps, - perhaps to save face and exclude a potential heretic from their midst, or perhaps to aid Guillemont in putting some distance between himself and the Inquisition - gave Guillemont an indefinite assignment in Thanalan. There he stayed until the Calamity, after which Guillemont went to Mor Dhona for a time. There he worked as a professional soldier, taking odd jobs protecting caravans, collecting debts and so on. This is how he met the Xaela smith named Bukidai Gharl, who would become a trusted friend. Years would pass before he overheard word of his old Thaumaturgy teacher, Susuko Suko, being in Ul'Dah. He went in search of her, only to find out after moons of searching that she had died. He returned to Ishgard and reunited with his family shortly after.

One of his contacts in Mor Dhona hired him to dig up a relic in some ruins in the Sagolii desert. After finding the object, Guillemont found himself subjected to terrible nightmares. In his waking hours, he found that he knew bits of information he should not have. Information pertaining to ancient voidsent and a cult that worshiped them. When he returned to Mor Dhona, he could not find the man who contracted him to dig up the artifact. Nor could he remember any details about the man when he tried asking around. No one had seen him in Revenant's Toll since he left in search of his teacher moons before. He came to fear that the man had been another dream, or that he had been subjected to some sort of manipulation...

Personality

Guillemont is socially awkward, and will often struggle to hold a conversation with people he has just met. He has been described as somewhat rough around the edges due to his seven years working amongst mercenaries and lowborn soldiers, and until recently had abandoned much of his noble De'bayle etiquette. Having rejoined his family he has been making an effort to speak in a more refined manner - though constantly thinking about his wording and tone only worsens his awkwardness. Though he finds it embarrassing after the fact, he can be impatient and quick to anger at times.

Guillemont tries to be helpful when he can, and even sometimes when he can't. Loyal to a fault, Guillemont would not hesitate to put himself between a blade and a friend.

Appearance

On a general day-to-day basis, Guillemont will have some stubble on his face. He usually only shaves when some sort of pre-planned meeting or formal event is taking place. His hair is black, but not quite the charcoal black of his brothers. He keeps it cut short. His eyes are a dull blue, with a hint of green. His facial features are quite angular and his cheeks appear somewhat gaunt, further emphasizing his already well defined cheekbones. There is a scar across his right cheek, and several more on his body - the most recent of which is across the right side of his ribs. On his forehead is the traditional De'bayle sigil tattoo.

Rumors

Some of these rumors are untrue or are greatly exaggerated. Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC!

◢ Common Rumors (Easily overheard)
"They say he fled after his aunt was found to be a heretic. Doesn't that make you wonder about him?"
"He did some dirty work in Mor Dhona. He might look the part of a noble knight, but he's just another dog fighting for scraps."
◢ Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear)
"I think I heard him talking to someone about voidsent once. And he's got that tattoo on his face. Do you think he's in a cult?"
"You ever see him around dogs? Gets real quiet."
◢ Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard)
((WIP))
◢ PC Rumors (Rumors from the character's of other players)
"One would think with all the mans stuttering and bashfulness that his social skills would be rather inept. That one would most likely be correct, however it seems most find his awkward personality endearing. Myself being no different. Do not underestimate him though for this fact, he is still just as formidable, if not more than his brothers. Like a goblin, far more fearsome than he let's off." -Carina De'bayle

Relationships

Romantic Physical Attraction Platonic Family Business Deceased Positive Negative Neutral Unsure
Armont De'bayle - Guillemont's older brother, who he admires greatly. Years apart has put some distance in their relationship, and Guillemont has not seen much of Armont since returning to Ishgard.
Denz De'bayle - Guillemont's younger brother. Despite Denz picking on him, Guillemont adores his younger brother. Of all his family, Guillemont has spent the most time with Denz since returning and is the most comfortable with him.
Agrias De'bayle - Guillemont's twin sister, and perhaps the person he trusts above all others. When he returned to Ishgard he was disappointed to find that she was off adventuring in Sharlayan.
Percelle Charlamend - Guillemont and Percelle first met after he watched her fight at the Grindstone. The two spectated several of Armont's subsequent matches, and they found they had a mutual friend (or acquaintance, in the case of Guillemont), in Piper. That there was an attraction between the two was immediately apparent. Percelle, of course, being more open about it than Guillemont. The two have since gone on a few 'dates' of sorts, though they have never explicitly referred to it as such.
Carina Roussos - Guillemont's sister-in-law, and Armont's wife. Guillemont first met her in Ul'Dah when he was searching for his teacher. She was the one who knew of his teacher and informed him of her death. When he returned to Ishgard and reunited with his family, he learned she was pregnant with his brother's child. Carina has become one of Guillemont's closest friends, and the two go bar hopping from time to time. Carina may or may not be his wingman.
Piper Braddock - A woman Guillemont met at the Grindstone. His fight with her ended with him nearly breaking the rules in frustration, and forfeiting. On a trip to the Mists to have dinner with Denz and Carina and get to know her better he would bump in to her. Denz expedited their inevitable rematch, which resulted in Guillemont winning. He has a growing respect for her as a fighter.
Uyraies Sonnen - Guillemont met Uyraies in Ul'Dah. She was of notably lower socioeconomic status, but seemed friendly. She was armed, but her equipment and training were both severely lacking. Feeling compelled to help her and thinking that a little money would probably be the best way, he offered to hire her. He enjoys her company, and thinks of her as an honorable and trustworthy person.
Phi Atsuho - A Miqo'te girl Guillemont met in Ishgard. She took an immediate liking to his chocobo, Muffin - one of the quickest ways to make friends with Guillemont. After discovering that she was being pursued by some sort of cultist group, Guillemont has taken it upon himself to protect her. First he has to find some information about them...
Nuarmac De'bayle - Guillemont's uncle, and husband of Guillemont's deceased aunt Christienna. Since her heresy was revealed, Guillemont's relationship with his uncle has degraded greatly. When he returned to Ishgard and found his uncle living with a dragon, his distrust was solidified.

Other Notes

  • He is afraid of dogs. He is even uncomfortable around small or well behaved dogs and does his best to avoid them.
  • He doesn't particularly like his title as 'The Grey Wolf', and will avoid using it.
  • He has an interest in Doman culture.
