PLAYER: Zorn
CHARACTER: Estinien Wyrmblood
CANON: Final Fantasy XIV

AU NAME: Estée Duchamps
AU AGE: 22
AU OCCUPATION: 1st year law school student
BLURB: Born and raised in France, Estée is a runway that was taken in by a wealthy bachelor at the age of 10. Going from a simple farm-life to one that couldn't have been more different, he's a bit of a mixed bag because of it. While growing up with a bit of a privileged life, going to a great school, having no real financial burdens, etc, he's still a bit of an asshole, and prefers to act and dress in such ways that defy the stereotype of his social class. His tastes range from primitive to obviously privileged, he's quick to dismiss the latter.

His family moved from France two years ago, transfering over during his sophomore year of college, so he's been around for a bit. However, despite being a well-off college student, he sticks to the seedier parts of town, and likes to fall in with bad crowds and take part in dangerous shit. Like, underground cage fighting. He's definitely a part of that, and damn good at it too! He's liable to pick fights with people if he feels they've wronged him in some way, as well. However, secretly he does a very "unmanly" thing and practices gymnastics as well, and has since he was young since he first had interest in it as a child. But as he's aged, he's kept that bit separate from his TOUGH MAN image people know him for.

So, besides being a full time student, he's a part-time cage fighter (secret gymnist), part-time bar hopper, and has a sweet motorcycle, and dresses like a goddamn tool trying way too hard to seem like a badass (leather studded jackets, ripped jeans, fingerless gloves, etc). In reality, he's a rich boy that tries to present as anything but, while still reaping the benefits of it regardless and without much thought about it. He's kind of a huge asshole like that.

He also doesn't give much of a shit about current technology, and is kind of a hipster in the fact he has a flip phone in this day and age, and prefers all the old school stuff like CDs, cassettes, etc. He's a stubborn mule stuck in his ways, and is too insufferable for basically anyone to convince to change. You'd have a better chance convincing a rock to stop being hard, than Estée to stop being how he is.

As for his schooling, he's barely getting by in his classes—not because he lacks the intelligence, but because he lacks the interest. He's taken up this line of schooling for his adoptive-father's approval, and that's about it. His lack of passion is very apparent, and you're lucky if he's not late more than twice a week. Even luckier if he's paying attention in class at all.

Oh yes, and if it wasn't obvious already, he's bilingual, and actually speaks pretty fluent English, but he still has a pretty obvious accent.

LOOKING FOR: ANYTHING, which isn't helpful. Estée isn't a very social dude, and he's more of a negative CR generator than not. So, fellow college students, enemies, acquaintances, etc. If you have an idea on how they might fit together I am all for it, but chances are he won't have many friends, if any.

I don't care what the fandom says, man, you were the best job quest character.

I see you're here to deliver the facts.

So, so...

Oli & I have been plotting and it's high time we let you in on it.

You game?

Hell yes I'm down! Also can I just say A+ for playing Ocelot, you're a hero among muns.

Great! Now you have to app with Oli! I can't wait to see these two in game, especially after they get their regains. ~~Those dorky elf-ears are going to win a snicker or two from Adam. So, precious.~~

Oh, thank you! I'm being ambitious as hell by trying to play this old bastard. I started on the application on the other day and I'm sweating already. That personality section is going to be a HOT mess.
