+ | :*<b><u>Hand to Hand Combat</u>:</b> Hand to hand combat was taught in order to train not only his body but also his mind, following a strict training of concentration and discipline. Although it was aimed to balance both strength and speed, Ryuji ended up being more prone with using his agility and dealing attacks in a quick succession instead of focusing in single strong yet slow blows. One of the teachings in this area was in how to confront an armed opponent and how to disarm him in order to regain vantage on the battlefield. Recently during a trip to the far-east he developed his footwork further to a point to slide around an opponent during physical confrontation or to better avoid attacks. | ||
+ | :* <b><u>Kyujutsu</u>:</b> Kyujutsu, the word used by the Doman to refer to bow arts. Despite not being taught to a point he would rival expert bowmans, the Au Ra was taught how to moderately use a bow and arrow, not only for him to be able to use one but also to help him train his concentration and attention to the surrounding area. Not only this but his master also saw it a vital skill for a warrior to learn. Although it is possible to see Ryuji using a bow in some rare occasions, it isn’t something very commonly seen as he prefers the company of his trustful katana. | ||
+ | :* <b><u>Sojutsu, Naginatajutsu and Bojutsu</u>:</b> Sojutsu, Naginatajutsu and Bojutsu, or the art of the spear, the art of the glaive and the art of the staff as the Doman call it, was taught in the later stages of his training. The reason behind this was to teach him how to battle this weapons wielders and how to deflect their attacks in opposition of how to use the weapons. It was also something Ryuji wasn’t interested to wield, not out of disrespect towards the art of wielding it but out of personal preference. | ||
+ | :* <b><u>Kenjutsu</u>:</b> Kenjutsu, the art of the sword, is (as previously said) the area where Ryuji stands out the most, being one he trained not only when he met his master but also with his father as a child before leaving the Steppes. It evolved with him through the years not only due to his training in the art of the sword but as well to the physical and mental training he had to undergo. Thanks to the teachings of his master in other arts, Ryuji swordsmanship style reached a point he was able to develop something he could call its own, making use of everything he learned. As he learns new things, he tries to assimilate it to its own techniques in a way he can better improve his sword arts. | ||
+ | :* <b><u>Aether</u>:</b> Ryuji was never one to be able to use magic effectively let alone to leave his training to learn about its ways. However, after coming to Eorzea and hearing about Aether, what it was and how it could be used, the samurai got an interest in how to better use Aether alongside his sword skills to boost their effects. Despite not being able to grasp it entirely, and using already in some of his skills, he fails to properly use it and thus isn’t yet able to make full use of their capabilities. Therefore he’s willing to put some effort in learning further about it so he can have a better understanding of its usage and how to employ it efficiently on his skills.</p> | ||

[edit]
Ryuji Malaguld (マラグルド 竜児, Maragurudo Ryūji), is an Au Ra who hails from the continent of Othard, and as someone born in the Azim Steppe he isn't stranger to conflict due to it being a constant between Xaela tribes. A curious person by nature to what the unknown world is he is willing to travel great lengths just to see new places he has never been, a habit that has been dimming less by each passing summer but that in one way or another will always be present in his life. Since little, he learned how to respect and be respectful towards not only other people as well as their culture, something he follows even now that he moved to Limsa Lominsa on the Eorzean continent. During his stay overseas he made some acquaintances, and while some encounters he had were good others were really bad. He might not have many friends, being able to count them with the fingers of one hand, but the ones he has are respected deeply and he’s never willing to betray them, especially his wife. Thanks to the experiences he had since the day he arrived, he decided to change his name to Weiss Loire in order to make future encounters easier, as well as to better fit Eorzea society.
He tries to wear clothing better fitting the occasion he’s in, going as far as spending some time if necessary to find an adequate garment, having a preference for loose clothing so he can move more freely and feel more relaxed. When wearing armor he tries to make it light but always avoids exaggerating since it’s better to not forget that that armor is meant for protection and not for fashion or comfort. The muscles of his body are a bit toned thanks to the training he underwent and keep doing even today, but aren’t very noticeable due to being mostly hidden with the clothes he chooses to wear, especially when using armor. He is physically capable to fight and travel great lengths in a short time.
Loyal, kindhearted and generous. Due to the continuous confrontations between tribes in Azim Steppe, Weiss (or Ryuji) had the need to become a capable fighter since he was very young, something that made him courageous in the face of danger and especially if someone important to him is in trouble. Although he is very confident in his abilities he is too self-conscious of his own limitations (sometimes too much) and ends up giving himself less credit than what he should, going as far as doubting about himself and if he is capable of accomplishing what is needed to. Because of this, he resents assuming/being given leadership, but he is the first to ensure that what is necessary gets done. His pragmatism and sense of responsibility lead others to trust and follow him and in turn, knowing about this, he tries to not disappoint them and avoids at all cost betraying their trust. As he always keeps his word he despite people who aren’t able to do the same.
This is a list of the items that Weiss currently is keeping on him. Feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in the course of RP, such as pickpocketing, a search, etc. Last Updated: September 19th, 2017
Although his master, a former Doman samurai, properly trained Ryuji in order that he could become a stronger and faster warrior and in how to balance his strength and speed, the latter attribute would be the one where the Au Ra would be more distinguished at. Thanks to this he is capable of doing quick swings with his blade that are difficult to follow with untrained eyes. The way he moves in the battlefield makes one believe his opponents are making a swift dance with death itself thanks to the way he moves around swiftly and lands his blows in a quick succession with efficiency and precision. He knows however that there are warriors far more powerful than him, so he keeps training his mind and body in order to not perish in the battlefield. He is open to learning new techniques and styles if it helps him hone his skills, never betraying however the path of the samurai. This said and despite the sword being the area where his skills would stand out the most, there were other areas he was trained in that helped him complement his swordsman and warrior skills.
Here is a list of recent and/or notable fights, roleplay scenes, etc. that Weiss has been a part of. This list is by no means all inclusive, and serves more as a general reference as to what he has been up to.
.
As of now Weiss is in Goblet spending the night.
These are mostly backstory-related relationships.
Listed here are the non-family characters, both PC and NPC, that Weiss has interacted with enough or in such a way for him to form a real opinion about them. Please don't take personal offense if your character isn't listed here, or how the interaction or relationship is described. It isn't that I dislike your character or our RP. I just tend to only add these as necessary for those who make a real impact on Weiss, and descriptions are purely based upon in character experiences and opinions! Last Update... August 8th, 2017 * An asterisks denotes that Weiss doesn't know the individual's true name.
◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely!
◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first!
◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using!
◢ Player Character Rumors - Feel free to add rumors of your own!
You are not permitted to re-use this artwork for your own characters or purposes, whether on Final Fantasy XIV or on other games, forums, etc.
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. - No changes. |
