[edit]
[This is updated frequently; check back for new details!] Sorrow (From Fire Emblem Awakening OST) Paul in one paragraphPaul Desmond 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 Paul 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, Paul's strength is reflected through his chiseled body. Medium length, unkempt yet styled blonde hair shines over his tan body. Average height, around 5'8". People who are sailors or lived a life of sea-faring will immediately recognize Paul's body as that of sailor's. In addition to his bodily appearance, his eyes are deep blue, nearly matching the sea he was raised on. Paul Desmond is a man filled with darkness and sorrow. Yet, 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 anger, fear, suffering, and pain. He has no weakness. His emotions are sealed tight. If the right person came along, he may open up. Though Paul does at times spend the evening with a random woman for mere pleasure, spend the night consuming rum, or simply find comfort in a female companion, if the right woman opened his heart he would swear his loyalty. Indeed, when Paul finds the one woman that plagues his dreams, it is unwavering loyalty that she will have. Note: While it is not emoted, Paul's expressions are sorrowful. He puts off a very dark aura by his presence. Nothing magical, of course. It would be more of an uneasy feeling. His mood is very melancholic and is very obvious just by looking at him. If he smiles it is always a sad smile. Any laughs are never of happiness and portrayal of happiness is false. Unless, of course, the aforementioned is described as "genuine" or "kind." This becomes less and less apparent as a conversation progresses. But if Paul is observed alone, the above is difficult to not see.

Paul 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.
Paul 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, the 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. ♥ M'lissa Keht: Lissa, as Paul calls her, was wanted for murder. But he knew better. Something didn't add up. When Paul, in his inspector role, interviewed Lissa, it was apparent to him that she was a victim in something far larger than just being framed for murder. During his second interview with her near Apkallu Falls, he found himself acting on impulse and gave into passion. The passion escalated to love and caused Paul to love Lissa more than another. In time, he came to be called Lissa's light, her own words. He had never been this before nor had such an impact on someone's life as he did with her. If their relationship could be summed up, it would be: "There was no one logical explanation as to why. It just was." Now, however, it simply is not. ♥Aiden Blood: It was a chance meeting, really. When Paul took a seat next to an acquaintance by the name of Elf at the Quicksands, the man seemed annoyed by this young woman and had to leave. Paul felt a pat on his shoulder as Elf said, "But Paul here will answer any questions you have." So... Paul took the empty seat and introduced himself. It was shocking to Paul how easy it was to speak with her and how much they had in common. After spending a couple evenings together it became clear that Paul could not ignore what he was feeling toward Aiden. While there had been no admission of love, there was a connection that begged further exploration. As it was explored, it became evident that this is indeed love. Now that it has been uttered in the air between them, Paul and Aiden confess nothing but affection for each other, so much so that he has asked her to be his wife, which she happily accepted. Sadly, however, this came to an end as Paul was unable to fulfill his vow. ♥Lara Stroggy: Met by a small chance through their travels in the forests of Gridania, it was a brief and innocent meeting. Then two suns later Lara happened upon Paul near Bentbranch. Something sparked there and after a few suns of a slight cat and mouse game, the two were romantically entwined like the grape vines of Wineport. Over the next dozen suns, their love grew immensely and at an exponential rate. But the unthinkable happened. Against a sworn oath to never forsake her, Paul left Lara for another. Through this unbecoming action, Paul broke Lara's heart and subconsciously broke his own. Recently, through the strands of an ironic fate, Paul happened upon Lara in the North Shroud. In an effort to repay in a small way what he did to her, Paul offered Lara back her family heirloom. She refused as it was a gift. Paul set it back at his left arm where it remained since she initially gave it to him. While he doesn't wear this ribbon any longer, he does keep it as a reminder to never stray down such a tumultuous road again. Paul has not seen Lara for several moons. It seems the fire of this flame has flickered and coals extinguished. ● 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
Paul can be anywhere, really. He's from Limsa Lominsa, so is there often. His work takes him all over, but he'll always be at a bar consuming rum when he can.
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. |
