| <div style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:13px;"><p>Alces, Thouridos' father and namesake, was a degenerate pirate captain.

Thouridos grew up on his father's ship, first as a deckhand and later as a pirate himself. The glazenut fell far from the tree, and Old Salt didn't approve of his son's gentle heart and scholastic interests. Many of Thouridos' scars were his father's doing; the most prominent of which he received during his escape. When the <i>Hyllstymm</i> was boarded by Maelstrom forces, Thouridos saw his chance to flee. His father brought his ax down on his son, nearly costing Thouridos his eye. Enraged, Thouridos wrested the ax from his father, but couldn't bring himself to kill the pirate. Instead, he jumped aboard the Limsan ship, holding his father's ax as its owner cackled and sailed away. Since that day, Thouridos has sought to rectify his father's wantonness by using his own weapon to protect and save others from harm. He prefers not to talk of his father, and he has never attempted to learn whether the Old Salt still lives.</p></div> | | <div style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:13px;"><p>Alces, Thouridos' father and namesake, was a degenerate pirate captain.

[edit]
THOURIDOS ALCES (Pronunciation: "THOR-ih-dose ÆL-sez", Meaning: "Torn-in-Two, son of Old Salt") is, by his own reckoning, a self-made Roegadyn. The son of a sailor born under the stars of Thaliak, Thouridos puts more weight behind the choices he has made than the hand he was dealt.
At a towering 7 fulms and 4 ilms, Thouridos can easily be mistaken for a stereotypical axe-wielding Sea Wolf brute. His considerable strength and martial prowess can indeed be attributed to the youth spent on corsair ships pillaging across the Rhotano Sea. When situations allow it, he prefers to dress comfortably in 'traditional' Limsan style, with the loose-fitting and weather-worn garb of a seaman. More often than not, however, he dons heavy armor necessary for adventuring and mercenary work.
Contrary to his appearance, Thouridos is a well-spoken, knowledgeable, and peace-seeking Roegadyn. Thouridos strives to break the common misconceptions of his people as brutes, his clan as brigands, and his family as dangerous. While he harbors no qualms about taking up arms in defense of the weak, he prefers non-violent or inventive solutions to problems whenever possible. He has a fierce drive to improve himself in both body and mind, and often spends his time either training or researching. To relax, he is just as wont to go exploring alone with his chocobo Pfrymaren as to raise flagons in The Drowning Wench.
Thouridos grew up as a deckhand on his father's buccaneer ship. As he grew older, he found that he could not accept the violent and petty life of a corsair; he desired to learn of the realm around him and the people that inhabited it. After his father's craft was beset by Limsan pirate-hunters, Thouridos narrowly escaped with his life and his father's ax. Upon return to Limsa Lominsa, he was tried and sentenced as a pirate himself. Only by fate (or by Llymlaen's hand) did Admiral Merlwyb hear his pleas of innocence and desire to make amends for his crimes. She offered Thouridos a tour of duty in the Maelstrom navy, which he proudly served thrice over. He has since proven himself a capable sailor and formidable man-at-arms, and his service to the Maelstrom has offered him many chances to quench his thirst for knowledge and discovery.
Upon traveling land-ward, gallivanting with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, and sojourning to Mor Dhona, Ishgard, and Idyllshire, Thouridos has met many residents of Eorzea that share his desire to learn and improve. In an effort to gather like-minded souls in the pursuit of knowledge and exploration of the unknown, he has founded the Heralds of Thaliak linkshell. He is currently in the process of recruiting members and officers for his burgeoning organization, as well as searching for an acceptable base of operations.

Howdy - I'm Emgee, and I'm a writer from the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I works as a Script Writer, Editor, and Voice Actor for a company where I make tutorial or training videos, and I also work as a writing consultant for the Online Writing Center for the university I attended. While new to FFXIV, I played FFXI for several years. During this time, I roleplayed on the Asura server with several linkshells including the Children of Altana, BlessedLS, the Vanguard, and more. I enjoy writing, playing games (of pretty much any type), and story in any medium (history, etymology, books, movies, tabletop RPGs, etc.).
