« RECORD »
Disposition: -Noble
X'rhun is an upstanding, highly honorable person, deeply invested in the well being of others. Acts of cruelty, immorality, greed and treachery are surefire ways to upset him, and are often just as offensive to him as a direct insult. There is nothing more vile than betraying the trust of another, to him, no proper excuse for it.
-Fatherly and altruistic
It stands to reason that someone who prides himself on his nobility would also be a giving sort. Always willing to extend a hand to someone in need without a thought of payment in return, the plights and troubles of those who have less than him have always been important to consider and attend to. Most certainly this is because of his own past, and his current status as a refugee from a war torn and oppressed nation. Having lived through his own troubles as a member of a doomed resistance group, and seen his friends and family injured, humiliated or killed by invading Imperials, he has never forgotten what it was like to be brought low. It's unsurprising that he also has a habit of taking in those that seek his tutelage, and has a particular soft spot for children. He will not only offer his knowledge, but his companionship and protection as well for any who might have need of it, and can quickly become attached to those he takes under his wing.
-Charismatic
X'rhun is a dashing, handsome and highly intelligent miqo'te, with a friendly and welcoming personality. His somewhat older age and hard life has served to grind off the jagged, sharper, rougher points of what was once possibly a more abrasive and arrogant man, more convinced now than ever of the importance of having others around. He'd usually prefer to talk rather than fight, only taking up the blade when it's clear that his words fall on deaf ears. Eloquent and well educated, he has a rather flowery way of speaking, which is fairly in line with his entire aesthetic anyway, and tends to come across as a warrior poet, of sorts.
-Brave
When there's fighting to be done, one can expect to see X'rhun there on the front lines, sword in hand and spells at the ready. Though typically not reckless, that doesn't make him any less courageous, in both his actions and his words. He dislikes lying, and while he's kind enough to choose his words well, he isn't afraid to state things that must be said, for better or for worse. One cannot learn, after all, if they don't receive the truth, and a mentor must be bold enough to state as much, despite how much it may hurt to state it. He doesn't shy away from much of anything at all, whether it be engaging in combat, teaching his students, or forging new friendships, being a highly gregarious and outgoing man.
-Survivor's Guilt
X'rhun personally blames himself for the death of the Crimson Duelists, the band of red mages he once traveled with and fought alongside. His trust in one of them, once a dear friend, lead to the betrayal and murder of the entire group save for himself. While he doesn't let this sense of guilt fog his thoughts, it was his driving motivation for many years after the duelists fell. He has moved forward with his survivor's guilt, rather than leaving it behind, and it might be too difficult now for him to let it go. Part of what drives him to teach red magic, and the ways of the duelists themselves, is to honor the lives of the friends he lost, seeking now to preserve the ancient art of red magic so that it will continue on for generations to come.
Under Pressure: A freedom fighter of a group long since wiped out by treachery, and a citizen of a country ground down for years beneath the boot of an oppressive empire, X'rhun is no stranger to hardship. In the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, whether it be hunting down his treacherous former friend, defeating voidsent queens, or resisting the might of the Empire itself, he somehow manages to find it in him to be endlessly optimistic, never openly questioning his ability to overcome the trials set before him.
In fact, the idea that he's somehow helping the people of this world in some manner will be nothing but encouragement for him, no matter how difficult it may become in the future. While he may have questions and concerns in regards to precisely what he's doing, or what the consequences of what he's doing might eventually be, it's safe to say he'll rarely air his grimmer thoughts unless pressed to, preferring instead to focus on the positive.
Regarding matters of intimacy, he will balk at the idea of having casual relations with anyone, preferring to keep sex between himself and people he's become very close to. He'll be very finicky about the use of protection, and will no doubt need to have it confirmed that no one can become pregnant here before he'll engage in sex. He'll always, however, be fine with touching. Hand holding, shoulder claps, hugs, cuddling and more, he's a very affectionate and physical man.
