Traveler - tinkerer - enjoyer of simple pleasures - VIEU GREYSTONE IS EVERYTHING THAT HE PRESENTS HIMSELF TO BE. This is a man one is glad to have encountered on the road: he dusts off his weatherbeaten leather coat, adjusts his hat, and grins crooked, and the curve of that grin creases well-worn grooves on his face.
You in need of a helpin' hand, friend?
(He don't take payment. But if you insist, he'd like a beer and a story.)
IDENTITY. Vieu Greystone. Romulus jen Casena. Linkpearl Kitten in the Wyld Hunt's ring. Pilot and engineer and vagabond and brother, once upon a time. Bartender (a really bad one).
PHYSICAL. A middle-aged man with scruffy mid-length hair and stubble; stockily built - short for a Garlean - with corded muscle hiding under a healthy layer of fat; a burn scar that runs up the length of his right arm; a gait that favors his right leg over his left. Relaxed grey-green eyes. A casual stance. A smile with one scraggletooth poking out at the edge.
THEMATIC. Life after loss. A coward's absolution. Escapism. The cruelty inherent in turning your eyes away. Who are you, when not defined by others? Reconciling privilege and suffering; even the in-group under fascism is ground down by the empire.
...And how do you live, despite it all?
| STRENGTHS... |
Finding time to stop and breathe. Providing infectious excitement. Having the right tool in a sticky situation. |
|---|---|
|
What have you forgotten about yourself? |
|
| NEUTRALS... |
Injecting a spot of levity in any situation. Being the exact sort of person that he seems like. Keeping himself from appearing threatening. Using his heart on his sleeve like a shield. |
|
+*. Why can't we have a little fun while we're at it? |
|
| WEAKNESSES... |
Being too afraid to take decisive action. Wearing a mask of his own face without knowing what lies beneath. Allowing unspoken grievances to color his heart. |
|
How can I know if I ever changed at all? |
BEAU DAWNSTRIDER."She's a lot like me. Simple... naw, not simple. Forthright. Honest in her presentation and her kindness. Ain't nothing seems to faze her, and she keeps her head held high, but there's a weight on those shoulders, y'hear? I hope that I can be there when she's wanting for an offered hand."
MASANORI OBELLIUS."We've been nothing but the people we been supposed to be, you and I. And I want to find out who you - we, maybe - who we truly are. Wanna do it together?"
VALHYR WYLDERVYK."I'm not sure what I've done to earn this kindness. You've really become the mountain you wished to lean on, once. So... don't forget to be selfish, okay? You won't be goin' at it alone; I care for you as you've cared for me."
ANDROMEDA (LUX) VALERIUS."...I'm glad that, out of all the people from the VIIth to reunite with, it was you. What you did back then meant more to me than you'll ever know."
CALIMANT JEREND.
DERYK HEARTHNEST."The book's been on my nightstand for ages... it's fine if I keep it, right...?"
EFRIONNE NATAIN.
KORALIA ATOEL."From a budding goldsmithing apprentice to openin' up a shop of your own— my friend, you've really come far! I know the past haunts you - it's a burden that weighs down every step you take - but I hope you find comfort in knowing you've got people at your back...And one day, we'll realize, the burden no longer weighs as heavy."
SHRIKE.
AMA AKHABA."...She might be onto me."
FANA MAJORA."I watched her crack a fire crystal open like an ice-cold can of beer. Coupla years ago I heard she singlehandedly beat the Sons of Saint Coinach to a relic in the center of a volcano. She's friends with Wolf, too, through the Amalj'aa - and I suspect if we ever get to chattin' she'll be a friend of me."
ISABEL SCHLAGER."...I think we might be buds if she came back in a few years. Right now I don't want nothin' to do with her relationship drama."
LUCILLE STARLING.
MARCEL ABBOTT."That kid's always got somethin' going on with him. I'd say he needs a vacation, but I know he'd find a way to turn that into a job one way or another. Listen, I'm not sure what happened to make him this way, but I think he needs to do somethin' fun for once."
SAORI SUZURAN."That. Countless other incidents with other people, but also that. We sure did end up bannin' weapons from Broken Collar Club after she swung a glass at someone's face and they pulled a fucking gun on her."
IOLA TARIAN."I do not care how much we got in common. She nearly killed me when we talked."
"Sons of Saint Coinach? Rowena? Fetchin' Allagan relics for the highest bidders? I'm tellin' you I'm past all that, so piss off."

NEED A HANDYMAN?
WOMEN FEAR ME
DRAGONKILLER. (available to: skysteel manufactory workers, participants in the dragonsong war, ishgardians) became part of a dragonkiller operating unit as a part of the civilian militia erected after daniffen's wall got fucked up.
ALLAGAN BULLSHIT. (available to: allagan researchers, relic hunters, adventurers, gleaners) known for being a dumb fuck suicidal relic hunter who always seemed to come out alive. he stopped turning in tomestones/trawling adventuring boards as of a few years ago, and a number of people miss his services.
HOOK. (available to: X, Y, Z.) placeholder text (real)
UNDER THE EMPIRE. (available to: imperial soldiers & scientists. give me an idea and we can workshop this together!) A faceless grunt in the XIVth, Ala Mhigo, and the VIIth, though less so Project Meteor— he would have preferred to be faceless there too, but he was brought in as a nepotism hire.
VIEU IS A MAN WITH A COMPLICATED PAST. It has dogged his footsteps since his unwilling defection under the blazing red Moon that was Dalamud, held at gunpoint by a twin brother who never planned to survive that journey, and his inadvertent awakening in Ishgard— free to breathe for the first time in twenty-four years.
He has learned to live with himself in the time since, and one day, gods willing, he will learn to live as himself.
