Personality

Personality Traits

• Impulsive
• Punk
• Lawless
• Solitary
• Wanderlust
• Chaotic Neutral

Mannerisms

Lane is boasting and proud in conversation, prone to speaking his mind and backing his words with his axe. Still, he is deceptively observing past his demeanor. He has a cruel take on others' reality, often playing the voice of the devil in any situation. Telling then, of his sense of trust. Still, he is adventurous and will challenge his reality by setting out on a quest to see it through.

Philosophy & Ideals

A free spirit born and raised, Lane believes in the choice of the individual. He clings to the idea that not even the last son of the Beaumonts should be forced to bear the burden of his name, and if that is true anyone can cast off their weights and move on to what truly calls their heart.

He thinks little of the forsaken surname he bears and what it means to hail from the Beaumont line, but he's always supposed sooner or later he would encounter his father's true fate...he intends to make it so that this will come to him on his own terms.

Early Life

Born heir to the bloodline of the Beaumont's esteemed Dragoons in the service of Ishgard's Temple Knights he was the only son of the only father left of his surname, the travelled and bloodthirsty Leofric Beaumont. It is Lianaux's understanding that Leofric was driven mad when his wife was poisoned in an attempt to lure him away from his post to allow a Dravanian offensive to break Ishgard's ranks without facing his wrath, and his wife's death lead him to both paranoia and vengeful madness. Lianaux recalls very little of his father or his surname's legacy, but he has been commented by Captain Bogard to be a "A one-man slayer of dragon and god alike."

Lianaux was sent away by his father during his early childhood, Leofric now troubled with the Temple Knights in his attempts to carry out his personal vendetta against the Dravanian responsible for his damnation and was evidently mentally unstable from trauma. He grew to be an unruly son with a penchant for troublemaking, and escaped from a caravan intended to leave him with caretakers in Gridania to wander to Limsa Lominsa and to meet his surrogate uncle, the one friend of Leofric Beaumont -- the captain of the Storm's Rage vessel, The Roegadyn marauder Bogard.

This was not as straightforward as Lianaux had originally imagined, travelling through towns and taverns as a pickpocket with a sly sense of humor that earned his a punch in the jaw more often than not. Midway through his venture he was recruited into a travelling actor's band -- a front for the transport of contraband. Lianaux enjoyed the life of vices and thought of little in the long term until his band was ambushed and Lianaux thrown in jail. His trial by combat in the coliseum of Ul'dah scarred his body more than the lashes ever did, and he emerged recognized for his viciousness with liberty once again. Once more, on the road.

Adulthood

Lianaux finally arrived to a town of his dreams -- Limsa Lominsa. Crawling with men of battle and liberty, he grew to love the town for its faults and found the old Captain Bogard retired as a shoemaker in the city. It wasn't until Lianaux learned to craft the perfect pair of boots that Bogard would be convinced to run one last voyage of the mighty Storm's Rage that once carried Leofric into distant lands for battle in what Bogard remembers as better times.

Bogard was a brutal mentor to an already crafty Lianaux, believing the Storm's Rage needed one more voyage to see before he retired from age. Bogard saw a young man unscathed by the sanctimony of Ishgard and believed he would slay beasts in the name of his captain that even Leofric would stagger to face. So it would be that Bogard's last few years would be spent on the sea mentoring "Lane" in the ways of being a pirate. He was away from Eorzea at the time of the calamity. Lane absorbed the morals and pirate's wisdom of his captain faithfully and developed an acrobatic skill with a greataxe. He was indeed Leofric's son in the eyes of Bogard, yet he spoke little of his father. "We're our own men out here." The Storm's Rage capsized, and Bogard died "proud to die like a man of the sea" not far off of the dock of Limsa Lominsa, Lianaux does not speak of this incident in detail.

Lane spent some time in La Noscea as a fisherman in his spare time, mostly living off of the money made from the Storm's Rage's many profitable hauls entrusted to him by Bogard. He eventually wandered back onto the mainland to hunt the landwalking beasts of Thanalan, believing he would make more money for independent work. Lianaux was not yet ready to board another ship's crew.

Recent Times

Following the mysterious attack on the Storm's Rage that lead to her capsize and the death of most of the crew and notably the notorious captain Bogard, Lianaux has recently wandered the plains of Thanalan fighting beasts. Acquainting himself to some good company in the city, he is slowly reconnecting with others. Recently, he has set off with an amnesiac Mamiko Moonweaver to hunt answers in his personal quest and hers.
