Physical Description

Standing at just over six and a half fulms tall, Valric is more than long of leg. His shoulders are broad, his torso and limbs robust and proportional. Forged in the flames of battle from a very young age, his mesomorphic frame sports chiseled brawn that is visible through most light clothing.Valric's body is flecked with battle scars, the signs of old wounds both shallow and grievous. There is little uniformity between these marks, and they are mercifully spread out across his physique. His face hasn't escaped combat unscathed either, a single but noticeable scar cutting vertically across the left side of his mouth.Among all of his features, Valric's eyes contrast the most. A piercing gray-blue in color, they stand out from his black beard stubble and the deep black hair that frames his face. Those bright irises may also draw one to note his unshaven eyebrows, the man having apparently bucked that particular Highlander custom.

Public record and easily verified facts

  • Only scant records exist, all within the last year or so.

  • Birthplace unknown, but not Eorzean. Arrived in Eorzea during or after the year 1576.

  • First observed in Eorzea in the wilds of Coerthas, doing battle with Giants.

  • Was soon spotted all over the continent, fighting both monstrous beasts and the more warlike races, seemingly all of his own volition.

  • Records of payment reveal that he is not opposed to sellsword work, though it almost always involves going against his favored over-sized prey.

  • Has managed to avoid the major cities until quite recently. He can now be commonly found at the fringes of the city-states' lands and is spending a little more time in the cities themselves and their residential districts.

  • Ul'dahn records show that Valric has very recently acquired a plot of land in ward 22 of the Goblet. He is rarely seen there for very long.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my character's carrd profile!Below is information pertaining to me and my RP style. If you have questions about something I left out here, feel free to ask. I may include it here afterward!NOTE: I've deliberately left Valric's personality and background vague on this profile, providing only broad details and things a nosey character could learn outside of interaction with Valric himself. This is because I enjoy going in to roleplay with there being plenty of things for other characters and players to learn through interaction, if the interest is there to begin with. Any more than what I've provided here would feel to me like giving away spoilers, possibly needlessly.That said, I enjoy reading others' character backgrounds when a player is comfortable revealing such things. This is just my preference for my own character.

  • Injury / maiming / death of my character without discussing it beforehand.

Below is a flexible and growing list of open ended scenarios or situations in which a character might be introduced to Valric. These serve only as suggestions and jumping off points, not requirements. If you have a different idea that requires some setup, feel free to bring it up. I also enjoy spontaneous RP and supporting roles just as much.

  • Monster Hunter - Valric seems to be an avid fighter of gigantic beasts and monsters. He would possibly lend his weapon to a hunt if he felt the prey was worthy.

  • Merc Work - Need a bodyguard or sellsword? Valric doesn't appear to be opposed to such work - especially if the chance of conflict is high.

  • Tavern Patron - Only a recent arrival to Eorzea, Valric can sometimes be found in taverns seeking information on the continent - in between drinks and Triple Triad, of course.

  • Seeking Expertise - Valric appears to be on the lookout for experts on a few specific subjects: item enchantment, types of wood, and firearms.

  • Neophyte - On rare occasions, Valric may be found practicing the arcane arts in the field. However, he's far from good at it, and often breaks down in to simply mauling his quarry to death with his casting instruments. He could probably benefit from additional advice or instruction.
