Character
"Within me beats the heart of a Hyur."
General:
Orphaned in his adolescent youth, Vhalken Sven Leingod found himself in the custody of the Oraguille House of Ishgard upon the pleas of a dying mother who could no longer care for her child. Throughout his years behind the walls of The Holy See, the Oraguille family gave Vhalken a proper education, teaching him to read and write in hopes of refining the boy under Ishgardian enlightenment. When the young Hyur was of appropriate age he began his training as a swordsman under his new families tutelage, brandishing blade with astonishing aptitude and potential. Vhalken often displayed notable measures of overpowering passion during his efforts to overcome obstacles and improve himself over the course of his many strenuous trials. This trait only further intrigued the Oraguille family, and as such they embraced Vhalken as one of their own with little reluctance. As Vhalken grew into adulthood, he came to demonstrate a strong sense of justice and morality, holding to these ideals with passionate zeal and devotion. He now strides the world of Eorzea with a vigorous step, his courage and irrefutable skills as a swordsman ultimately defining him, establishing his ideals of honor as one the most recognizable traits he conveys. Vhalken’s charismatic nature and faculty of heart and fervor has placed him at the forefront of many ventures, a natural born leader among the populace of Eorzea.
Name:
- Given Name: Vhalken Sven Leingod
- Nicknames and Aliases: Vhalken's brows are one of his most distinctive visual traits, thick and much darker than his blonde hair. Due to this he was often called Eyebrows by his peers during his childhood.
Appearance:
Hardy and resilient, Vhalken stands at a towering height of 6'5’, weighing approximately 232 pounds. He exhibits a physique chiseled and defined by battle and valiant feats, treading throughout the world of Eorzea with pride and compelling confidence. Vhalken dons a traditional v-sculpted torso, arraying carved muscle under sun-kissed flesh. The Hyur’s posture remains sharp and disciplined, illustrating his self-assurance and stalwart composure. The intensity of his sky eyes speak of a mans search for purpose and companionship, a tale of insurmountable honor and crimson steel. His lighthearted nature never ceased to reveal itself from behind the guise of his warrior like exterior, indicating gentleness coupled with destructive capability. His features are an exotic sight due to his ethnic heritage, exhibiting unusual attributes that leave his visage memorable and distinctive. Vhalken’s mother emerged from humble origins, a young Midlander, fair and delicate. His father surfaced from Highlander ancestry, a barbaric embodiment of savagery and war. With the blood of both clans coursing through his veins, Vhalken frequently finds himself mistaken for an abnormally large Midlander, his tanned features indicating more boyish characteristics that most Highlander men are not accustomed to. Despite his assorted blood, Vhalken dons it like a badge of honor and pride, embracing within his heart the best of both worlds of Hyur, a paragon of their influential presence and undeniable potential
Combat:
"Thy reckless abandon at the expense of thine own aether.. Animus? Could thou truly utilize the blade as a conduit, the blemish that tholes you so. Ifsoever you lose control and become this… aether grease’d fist that burst through reality. Let none come ‘twixt us, aye, I will cut you down. Not fain’d am I in such revelations, but… with the love we share, I could not let ye becometh that which you seek to defend against." - Galaihaurat Oraguille
Vhalken’s fighting style relies on his vast array of techniques to keep his opponent staggered and guessing. He utilizes Animus, a monumental greatsword reaching 7 feet in length. Harnessing its vast width of steel like an extension of his body, Vhalken trounces his enemies with overpowering force and artistry, demonstrating mastery of swordsmanship that exemplifies elegance with raw power. When held in front of him, the fuller of his great third arm is broad enough to act as a shield, employing the colossal blade defensively against projectiles and other melee blows. With a single swing of Animus, Vhalken can cut through enemies wearing heavy armor, arraying his sheer ferocity on the field of battle.
With his symphony of raw iron and steel, Vhalken sweeps and cleaves Animus like a windmill of mayhem and destruction, immobilizing his foes into submission with devastating brute strength and inherent technique. Despite the sheer power behind his swordsmanship, Vhalken is generally slow and highly dependent on momentum and distance to utilize Animus to its greatest potential. Each sweep and lunge of the mighty blade ushers forth a grand velocity and force that bears down upon his foes with an unstoppable might. However, Animus’ onslaught is at its most vulnerable when building its momentum, susceptible to quick ripostes and dodges to stop the avalanche of force before it even begins.
Behavior:
Vhalken can be over-bearing and irrational during times of conflict, and though his tenacity is creditable, the resolve he conveys frequently attracts danger. Exceedingly bold and pigheaded, he often takes risks despite the odds, but because of this he has demonstrated several heroic feats in his existence. Renowned for jeopardizing his own well being throughout daring battle, Vhalken will not hesitate to expose himself to injury if given the opportunity of victory, willing to drop his guard to coax an arrogant foe into a futile attack. Many view Vhalken’s tendencies as insanity, believing him to be a foolish man who was simply throwing his life away on a whim for the sake of heroics. Despite his brazen antics, Vhalken is respectful and polite when those deserve it, illustrating a friendly demeanor and cheerful outlook on life that left an impression of optimism and hope. Due to Vhalken’s size, he has come to acquire nourishment beyond the conventional, his appetite for food insatiable, a bottomless pit of gluttony and uncompromising hunger that would leave the largest of mess halls barren, yet even then his stomach would yearn for the next great meal.
He values honor above all else, and as such Vhalken goes to great lengths to keep that honor intact without compromise. The influence of Vhalken’s ideals burns within his very core like a stoked flame, bearing a strong sense of justice and morality that he follows with great devotion and unwavering vigor. Despite his complimentary traits, Vhalken is known to be exceptionally stubborn and prideful, conveying a self-righteous mentality that he has yet to fully realize. He displays gullible tendencies that would leave some questioning his intelligence, enduring strenuous efforts to aid individuals that would sooner take advantage of him with deceitful intention.
