Young, inexperienced and newly started to roam the world on his own, Ran'yu has barely started to find his feet in a world that is much larger than he once knew.With an itch for learning, he is oft found in quiet places, perusing tomes or listening in on lessons.While he couldn't be called naive, he is aware that he lack knowledge of how the world works at large. This isn't something he is willing to admit out loud, which may have him present himself a lot more competent than he actually is.It usually doesn't last very long.

Personality

Positive Qualities: Mellow, easy-going, doesn't take things to seriously.
Negative Qualities: Somewhat naive, trusts to easily.Eager to forget his own bitterness and past, Ran will throw himself into whatever he is working on with gusto. He'll be the first to crack a joke if the pressure is to high if only to ease himself- and if it helps someone else, all the better. He might not be comfortable in the limelight or pick up every social cue, but he's only gotten better since he started seeing all the different places around. He speaks little of home or what happened, preferring to let ghosts lie. It makes it easy for him to get along with people who necessarily don't want to reveal to much of themselves, which has gotten him into trouble now and then.Hobbies: Plants, studying/reading, travelling
Vices: Self-sacrificial to the point of danger, forgetting to eat. A temper, though he manages it a lot better these days.Likes: Magic, chocobos, watching the night sky. Snow.
Dislikes: Boats, the ocean. Bitter foods, unnecessary fights.
Fears: Hopelessness, failing someone again, being the last one remaining again

Background

The village he grew up in was typical. Small, close-knit, where he was taught with a small group of children close in age.He was not prepared for the new life he was handed once his gender was revealed. And when an older male came down to bring the new jacks with him, to learn their new roles, his disdain for the forest barely concealed. His previous studies in plants and magic were replaced, his own interest brushed aside to prepare for new duties.With Niall, he was made to learn survival, the lessons were harsh and did nothing to ease his ill temper. This strange new life became one he grew familiar with over the years, and despite himself, he came to respect Niall's strength and sense of duty and how quickly Refr, his fellow age mate and student, adjusted to their new reality.And then, just before his lessons were done, disaster struck. He remembers almost nothing from the attack, outside the scent of fire, ceruleum and smoke. How he learned that magic skill is nothing without the knowledge to use it.How dying can be agonizing, painfully slow, especially with one trying and failing to keep them alive.He stumbled out of the forest in a daze, unsure how long he walked, before he settled to sleep. Likely, he would have died from his own injuries there, if he hadn't be found by a kindly, old woman, who had him brought to her home and nursed him back to health.While his body healed, healing the mind was hard. Despite her kindness and patience, Ran was not kind in turn. Regret and fear made him lash out with words but she bore it all, tended his wounded body and mind. Eventually, he managed to let go and when he finally left her home to allow the winds to decide where he ended up, his heart was a lot lighter than it'd been in years.

Ploot Hooks

Tincture Trouble
Ever been in need of a potion, a hangover remedy, or some way to ensure you won't fall asleep during your next graveyard shift? You might have met Ran, who makes and sells a variation of these, with varying results.Missed connections
Ran has..a terrible sense of direction, especially i places he's never been. If you've ever spotted a male viera coming up the same street for the fourth time, looking increasingly frustrated, please take pity on him.Teach me, sensei!
Being interested in magic, Ran hangs around the various magic guilds when he has the time. While he never joins them, finding their strange rules on magic limiting, he still seeks to try and understand. Having his nose in a book, or eavesdropping on a lesson is pretty common.Need a healer?
Stingy mercenaries need to make sure someone can stich up the worst of it? Beginner adventurers wanting to strike out on their own? Ran's available, as long you you don't mind a few mishaps here and there. Just. Bring a potion. In case....And more! Hit me up, we could figure something out!

Basics
Crystal, Balmung
European, GMT+1Availablility:
Some evenings, usually weekends.What I’m looking for
IC contacts, friends, businesspartners, family (close and/or estranged)
Adventure, mature themes, light-hearted fun, horror and moreRomance/ERP?
You want slowburn? This is how you get slowburn. I like the build up and pining as much as I like the romance.
Could it happen? Sure, but don't go in expecting it.Writing style:
Either very fast, or slow! English is my second language, and sometimes an idea will take a hot minute. I avoid large rp crowds because chat spam actually makes me anxious about missing someone. Grammatical and spelling errors! I'm sorry, but I try my best!Both ingame and discord RP is okay, just be aware I work full hours which means I can take a bit to reply.If we rp and either of us feel we're not a good match, I'll be polite enough to say so. Hopefully you'll extend the same courtesy.What I ain't doing
No unplanned grisly, permanent injuries. Just talk it out with me first.
I'm to old for a lot of shit, including IC/OOC bleed and lack of communication.
