Tendencies


Likes:
  • Darkness, indoors
  • Solitude, most of the time
  • Quiet
  • Bitter drinks (strong tea/coffe)
  • Stormy days
  • Learning
  • Exploring the new, Regaining the Lost

Dislikes:

  • Being touched
  • Waiting
  • unexpected swims (even more than just swimming in general, which he hates)
  • Talking, most-times
  • Assumptions
  • bright light
  • Heat

Personality

Behaviors:He tends to lockhimself away for weeks on end and work out information pertaining to his spells. He is also know to do extensive studies on the way that magic affects the local monsters.  He has also been looking intothe more ancient aspects of the Arcanum and some of the naturally magical creatures such as fairies.

When inthe company of other people he is likely to remain quiet and simply watch the others until he has something worth saying. He rarely shows his emotions and will be more likely to completely ignore someone that has angered him than to respond with what most would consider typical responses (though he will respond with violence  if he sees no otheralternative.)

Morals: He could be listed asLawful Neutral, but he is known to bend the rules of one set of laws infavor of another set that suits his needs. An example of this would be how he explains that his father was not a criminal, Since the laws of the pirate community state that theft of Limsa's goods was legal he is not a criminal (even though it is clearly illegal in Limsa's laws). He sees the Pirates as another set of standards unto themselves and therefore no more held to the laws of Limsa than the Garlean empire is held to those laws.

Mind: Generally quite smart,aspiring to be a grand tactician. He seeks to regain the renown once held by arcanist for their use of magic to help even the most mundane sailors fend off grand naval fleets.

Quirks: (having trouble thinking of a few good quirks without a character modelto look at.)

Though he searched Rogier was unable to find the place of origin for his use of the Arcanum. With a new grimoire in hand he set out to return to his homeland of Limsa Lominsa…
