Description
Though most Midlander Domans have darker hair, Argent's own comes to a good red color that has him stand out from his twin brother, Chishou. Several scars adorn his face from past battles he has been a part of with more underneath his armor should he be seen without it. His over all build on his body shows that he is quite strong with his toned muscles, yet keeps a slim build for his athletics.
Recently (2/23/16):
Returning to Eorzea, he is not the same man he was when he vanished without word. Due to overwhelming stress, his hair has started to gray early.
Personality
Argent tends to be laid back and openly friendly to those that would like to share a drink or tale with him. However when it comes to the defense of his friends and family, he takes on the cold, calculated soldier that the Garlean Empire molded him to be, but instead of being heartless, he keeps himself in check. However, this can be taken a step too far at times, which resulted in him taking a near-fatal injury to the chest from a Gunblade's round at point-blank range.
Combat
Naturally gifted with wielding a lance, Argent received additional training by a Dragoon of Ishgarde that was a close friend of his before their exile. This however did not affect his status to help in the defense of the city-state when they asked for his aid. His training does not stop at just the lance though. Additionally, he is well versed in using swords and shield, especially axes. In recent times, he discovered he could also tap into the flow of Aether and has contemplated taking on a more 'magical' line of training on the side that he learned from his friend, Mayu.
As of late, he's been favoring a sword than lance, but it doesn't mean he's given it up entirely. With the path he walks, though not willingly at first, it suits his needs better when having to deal with any Garleans that cross his path, or any who follow the Holy See's zealous ways that seek to bring harm to the innocent.
