ERP

Talk with me OOCly in game if you wanna set up an ERP scene. If you've found me in the quicksands, i'm probably there to find ERP over regular RP, but I go with whatever interests me at the moment. I will almost ALWAYS prefer some kind of setup to just out of the blue ERP, so if you're interested but don't have anything in mind, expect me to come up with ideas.
https://www.f-list.net/c/altan%20hydrangea/!!!!IMPORTANT NOTE!!!!
Altan is in a committed relationship. While I will still partake in ERP regardless, do realize that unless otherwise stated, it will likely be considered as a sort of 'soft canon'. AU essentially, where it's canon that he's had sex with your character only when it's relevant to them. ERP is fun, and both me and the writer of Altan's partner have come to the understanding that I still like to ERP with others even if the two of them are in a monogamous relationship :)

Altan's background / info

Altan Hydrangea is a Xaela whose early life was spent moving from place to place due to the ongoing invasions by the Garlean empire, before growing up in Ul'Dah.
Time changes all men, and Altan is no different. Once, he was a brooding, perpetually helmet clad giant, quick to give a mean stare and say not much else. Time has softened some of his edge however, and nowadays he's content, willing to crack a joke and pretty laid back, unless really, REALLY pushed. His motto when things start to get ugly is: "I have a wife man, I don't care about this anymore."He's proficient in most weapons, but he lives and breathes the axe.He has an intense interest in scholarly pursuits. History, geography, literature, you'll find that he's surprisingly well read, and not just a mass of muscle without thought.

OOC Info!

Sup! This section used to be LONGER, but I wanted to condense it some! I am not Altan, and Altan is not me, he is my character, and through him I play out someone who's values might not always align with me OOCly. OOC communication is king. If you're getting bored, or have things to do, I won't take it personally if you need to step away or cut off RP. I'm a pretty chill dude, so you won't offend me by saying you've got other things you'd rather do.Note about ERP . TL;DR, yes. Click for info.If we really hit it off writing wise, I might ask or accept a discord friend request! Though, if I don't, don't fret, I don't dislike you. I'm just a bit hesitant to give that info out there.

Public Knowledge / rumors

- Altan is currently a Captain of the Immortal Flames. Under their employ, he has partaken in many important fights for the realm, including but not limited to the battle at the Ghimlyt dark, The Bozja incident, and more recently leading his own squad in the Ilsebard Contingent to Garlemald. Though he's no moral authority, he takes his job quite seriously.
(Recent rumor has it that Altan has killed a fellow Captain for some reason pertaining to despicable acts. As such, he has a reputation amongst others of his rank as someone who does not tolerate corruption, but how far this goes no one knows.)
- Used to fight as a mercenary, as well as hunter of large beast. It's possible that he may have worked with you before, well before he began work in the Immortal Flames.
-Avid tea lover. If you love tea as well, you may have seen him at tea stores, buying seeds.
-Bit awkward around others, and often looks for a way out of a conversation, even if he enjoys it.
- Years of fighting experience has make a proven warrior out of him. Put a weapon in his hand, he can probably use it. He is also a Warrior, jobstone and everything.
- Experienced with field medicine, as all good warriors should be. He can patch you up, so as to send you to a REAL healer if you're particularly fucked.
- Has killed many. MANY. Garlean soldiers in his time. There was once an active bounty on his head from the Garlean Empire. There's no way of confirming if that bounty has gone away due to recent events or not.
- Don't be fooled by his size and weight. He can be very nimble if he wants to be.
- Practically lives in his armor.
- Duels quite frequently.
