Vincent Belsara (pronounced /ˈVin-Sent Bell-Sar-Rah/) (12th Sun, 5th Umbral Moon (Oct 12th)) is a Hyur Midlander, self-proclaimed Paladin with a tendency to meddle in the affairs of others. A swashbuckler of sorts who likes to help out wherever he can, and a member of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. Abducted at a young age and raised and trained in the Garlean Empire as a spy, he escaped their clutches as a teen, lived as a thief in Limsa Lominsa until The Calamity struck, and stole his family from him. Following The Calamity, Vincent took up the sword he had laid down after escaping the Empire and began journeying across Eorzea, looking to help anyone he could while improving himself through trial and training. A young man with a smart mouth and a skilled sword-arm, and a heart of gold beneath it all.

(This Vincent is actually based off of another Vincent Belsara that exists outside of Eorzea)

Biography

1542-1561

Childhood

Vincent was born in La Noscea, and for the first seven years of his life, had a relatively ordinary childhood living with his mother, and for a brief while, his younger sister. Around age seven however, he and his younger sister were abducted by the Garlean Empire, taken to Garlemald, and used as a form of ransom to ensure the loyalty of their mother as a spy for the Empire.

Though a hostage of the Empire, Vincent was not ill-treated, nor was his sister, for they had been abducted as part of a program to home-grow spies for the Empire of native Eorzean descent. As a result they were fed well, finely clothed and well-trained, except for when they expressed disobedience or insubordination.

The siblings were separated for training purposes a short while into their stay in Garlemald, with Vincent being deemed more appropriate for physical training, while his sister more valuable for arcane studies. It was as a result of this that Vincent met his mentor and swordmaster, an Elezen by the name of Akataras Arriona. The two were initially at odds with each other, until over time they developed a begrudging respect for one another over their mutual hatred for The Empire.

As a result of this, Vincent became a dutiful and loyal apprentice to Akataras, and began to excel in his studies of martial form, moving beyond the more simple elements of swordplay and combat prowess quickly. It was as a result of this bond that they formed, and the loyalty they had to one another, that Vincent and his sister where able to escape from Garlean influence just before Vincent reached his teens.

The master risked all to ensure his apprentice's safety and freedom, but ultimately remained behind to cover their escape. Vincent would not hear from or see his mentor again for many many years, and despite achieving freedom from Garlemald, his struggles were just beginning.

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Interest    ♥ Platonic Love     ● Good Standing     ● Poor Standing ♥ ● #REDIRECT ''Akataras Arriona'' - Vincent's mentor and swordmaster, who he met during his years as a hostage in Garlemald. The two have had a strained but devoted relationship with one another over the years, and recent revelations regarding his mentor have reshaped how the two interact. Regardless of it all however, they remain fearlessly devoted and loyal to one another, even if their stance in their world can be on opposite sides at times. ● #REDIRECT ''E'lario Tia''- One of the owners of the Gold-Coeurl Crystal Company, a young Miqo'te that Vincent befriended (and shamelessly flirted with in an attempt to seduce) in Ul'Dah. Following the reveal of and subsequent Monetarist spin placed upon Vincent's past that ruined his contacts and reputation, both E'lario and his business partner offered Vincent a job in a freelance capacity as a bodyguard for their shipments. As a result of this, Vincent is not a part of the company itself, but receives payment from them on a commission basis, when his assistance is needed. Due to his commitment to the Scions however, and the fact that the company has more than enough gil for other hirelings, Vincent's recent dealings with the company can be infrequent, at least in a professional capacity. ● ● #REDIRECT ''Dietrich Dracht''- One of the owners of the Gold-Coeurl Crystal Company, a hyur with whom Vincent's has argued on numerous occasions. With an extreme difference in ideologies it's genuinely surprising that the two have never come to blows. All the same, they maintain a begrudging friendship (it's really more of a friendly rivalry) built upon snark, banter and frequent insults tossed at each other like confetti. ● ●
