Here's a good idea of an...image as to the appearance of this one. Slimmer than really is, but yeah. (Do note that you should GO OFF THE APPEARANCE SECTION for the APPEARANCE. Thank you.)
Name: Ruby Flamewing
Age: 22
Race: Mana Beast
Job: Warrior (Job Changed from Dark Knight)
Hometown: Sprohm
Appearance: Ash-grey fur, tan hide, silver-white hair, rose-red eyes, raven black wings (too small to utilize flight with), with a zaftig, buxom, and voluptuous figure at a height of 8'7" (2.62 meters) and a weight of 657 pounds (298kg 10.163g ; 46 st 13 lb.) without armor, always wears necklace that is of importance to family that is easily hidden by her thick coat of fur. (
Note: Chest is furred, no 'fur collar' or tuff there.)
Quote: "Always live for today, for to live for yesterday is to trap yourself in a personal hell, and to live for tomorrow brews immobilizing fear of the unknown. What has been, has been - what will be, will be. Learn from the past, focus on the here and now, and work to create a better tomorrow."
Backstory and Goals: Not much is known, really, about the strangely furred dragoness that walks around in plate armor, carrying a battle axe over her shoulder. Rumors speak that she claims to hail from the Bangaa hometown of Sprohm, though depending on where she is, that may differ both in truth...and in origin. No one really knows where she's from, or when she started to wander - just as many know what she is supposed to be.
Fitting, then, that should one ask what her profession was, she would simply answer, "Dark Knight".
Not only does she typically loom over most humans, and in terms of other races, loom over them as well, she carries a dark aura to her being, one that would seem just slightly cold and uncomfortable to most. To a paladin, the only thing that would keep them from trying to fight her is the simple fact she keeps to herself, and instead try to help people out when she can...and when they're brave enough to ask for her aid. You'd be surprised how far a desperate farmer will go to chase some monsters off to protect his crops.
Some even whisper, in the more remote locations, that there is a rumor that she has been known to consume the souls of those who have fallen by her hands, and that she's really some sort of demon aiding people now so she could destroy or enslave the world later. Such talk has reached her ears, and while hearing the hushed whispers brings a smile to her face, she doesn't go about trying to prove the rumors true...or false. After all, the masses will think what they will of others, and in the end, she's seen too many risk their lives to change the opinion of the masses over them, only to end up changing nothing.
If one were to get to know her, however...one would find out that under her cold exterior, there lays a warmer side to her being: motherly, caring, and rather sweet to be around. She's still a glutton, being warm or cold to a person disregarded, and wouldn't deny admitting to any who knew of this fact that she would like to one day taste a delicious chocolate dish of the most divine quality. She also clearly loves battle, and has mentioned she'd like to face a worthy foe someday, or maybe even fight a large enough group worthy of her axe - clearly showing underlining hints to having a warrior's love for battle, or at least, having been raised with some over the years.
Though, only those close to her would know what she truly strives for...ultimate power. And not just through a legendary weapon of some sort, but to become the strongest warrior alive. And it's not to enslave people, as rumors go - it's clear that she wishes to protect people from the dangers of the world, and it's seen in the way she holds her necklace, which she would only tell the truth as being a memento of her family to those close to her.
There also is word, in the underground, that there is a particular group of notorious thieves that have 'a death wish' on them - to those privy to such information could follow leads and find that that 'death wish' is really Ruby, who has a grudge to settle with the ringleader of the bandit group.
...Oddly enough, through all her desires of wanting to fight, become powerful, and kill more people, her warmer self holds a desire she wouldn't mention to just anyone: she wants to feel a bit more like a girl, though specifics would never be given.
Truly an odd being, from exterior to interior, in physiology and psychology.
Many things have changed since all that time ago, and it shows: she now walks the path of the Warrior, uses magic a bit more often, has someone she loves - the Al'bhed, Ecpur - and has thrown boats at sand ninjas. While the call of the darkness is still there, she is confident she can resist it, so long as she stays true to her goals; while ultimate power is still what she desires, it's not to be the strongest that she seeks such power. It is to protect those she loves, and to ensure her unknown past does not repeat itself...
