Let you remember that in silence living is recognized…”

♥Hello! My name is Amo! I'm 32 Years Old♥
I love to write about pretty much everything! My favorite part about role-playing is being able to expose my character to all different types of personalities, experiences, and life lessons.I will do almost any type of RP as long as it is run by me first, but I am not interested in ERP solely for the pastime. (Some exceptions remain, but pestering for ERP will guarantee a block.)I do love fighting and plots! My character can be very antagonistic. Even so, please understand he is not a 'villain' and is not the main villain for your character's story-line unless run by me first OOCly.I do not ship characters right off the bat. Please be respectful of this. I prefer slow-burns anyway, or allowing the characters to naturally interact and come together through role-play solely.Also, on that note, please remember that even if our roleplay seems to bring the characters together, no amount of effort from your character guarantees that they will be with Ranirus. Ranirus is not 'owed' to anyone for how much effort they put into him.

Personality:
Intuitive, harsh, and apprehensive around most individuals. Ranirus tends to mimic a more feral assortment of mannerisms, but mostly in his intuition and vigilance.
If someone is apprehensive, he will be, though it is more in subtle mannerisms rather than someone's actions outright.Despite all this, he tries to be charming. He adores the mannerisms of Ishgardian nobles and tries his best to mimic their behavior, while still being earnest and caring to those he is close to.

RP Hooks"Blue" Dealing:
He is known to be peddling a drug called "Blue" which is a very addictive, unnaturally engineered drug. Blue is expensive, usually running about 30,000 gil for one vial. Its described as morpho-blue and glows faintly. The effects give a blissful high, making every touch upon an imbiber sensually pleasing. An entire vial will put someone under for nearly twelve hours.
Rumors:
Ranirus tends to wander around Ul'dah for the most part, sparing some time in the Shroud and even less time in La Noscea. He is known for being violent and harsh, volatile.
In La Noscea:
He is known to work for venues as as bouncer and bodyguard. He also visits the Bismarck often for food. It is possible some pirates in La Noscea are on the lookout for Ranirus.
In Ul'dah:
Ranirus spends a lot of time in the alley, peddling drugs and looking to mooch food off people. Its been rumored that he's set off explosives in the alley before but there had been no actual witnesses. He tends to haunt the corners of the city and watch people interact.
In the shroud:
Ranirus is sometimes in the shroud hunting or searching for allies who stay there. There are more common rumors that he had ventured through the shroud often years ago, hunting down his family which ambushed him at any given moment they were able.
Coerthas:
Ranirus rarely visits Coerthas, but it is in Ishgard that he minds his manners the most. Though even if he'd lived there when he was young, he is not recognized by any long-time inhabitants.
On the Steppe:
Ranirus stayed on the Steppe for a year (after the opening of Stormblood) and lingered around Reunion. A few out on the Steppe did acknowledge his title of a prophet. He sometimes ventures back, but those trips are rare nowadays.
Goldsmithing:
Ranirus wears a lot of gold and has often advertised his craft to others. He can make a large variety of items, from weapons to furniture to jewelry. He does not accept money for his work, but will accept food for payment.
