Name: G'raha Tia
Door: Door pass

Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Canon Point: Patch 7.2 (post Dawntrail)

Age: In body, around 24, but he has memories from 100+ years
Appearance: Here!

History: Here!
CR AU (Optional): NA

Personality:
Resilient: G'raha has lived through multiple things that could have been or should have been the end of the world- the time he spent in a ruined world after the Eighth Umbral Calamity, his time in the First trying to stop it from being Rejoined, and the Final Days on Etheirys. There were points in all of these that were extremely dire for himself, those he cared for, and the world, but G'raha did not at any point give into despair. He is not optimistic so much as hopeful, willing to strive and fight until the bitter end. He can get knocked down a million times and still get back up as long as he believes there's a reason still to give it his all.

Reckless: G'raha doesn't really hold his own life at the same kind of value as he does to many people around him, especially the Warrior of Light, which leads to him sometimes making some very reckless decisions in pursuit of what he thinks is the greater good. So he will, say, do shit like purposefully create a paradox that he thinks will cancel out his own exist and throw himself exploding with light aether into the void, or he would if anyone let him. He doesn't necessarily think his life isn't worth anything or anything like that, he just feels that if he can protect people with it (again, especially the Warrior of Light), then it's worth it.

Secretive: Pretty much any time G'raha has some sort of big plan that he knows other people will not like, he just... won't tell them the plan! He will lie or he will conceal, keeping crucial information from people if he's afraid it will hurt them or that they'd try to stop him. He's... not a good liar, everything shows on his dumb little face, but it takes a lot to get the truth out of him anyway.

Insecure: G'raha grew up on stories of heros and fantastical feats and was very much the kind of kid who wanted desperately to go on an adventure and, if not be a hero, then to help a hero. And then Some Shit happened and he got to do those things, and he still has a bit of a hard time believing that he deserves it. It's a little less so by his current canonpoint, but he feels a bit out of place in the Scions, like he's a kid who's been nicely allowed by the grown ups to act like he's one of them even though he's really not good enough. He mostly combats this by doing everything he can to be as much use as possible (for which, see all of the Reckless shit he can get up to).

Powers and Abilities: Without access to the Crystal Tower and it's potential for Utter Bullshit, G'raha's powers are pretty simple; he is about to use White Mage (healing) and Black Mage (fire/ice/lightning) magics, and can summon a sword and shield of light to use Paladin (tank) abilities. In his younger years he wielded a bow and arrow instead of magic and presumably hasn't entirely forgotten how to do that. Because of the Allagan Eye, any artifacts of Allagan origin would recognize him as part of the royal line but this is also probably never going to be relevant.

He essentially has the Eorzean equivalent of a PhD in magical history (specifically Allag, but, you know) and is a scholar down to his core, so he definitely has a wide variety of weird academic and academic adjacent knowledge from research and lore dives.
Inventory: His staff, the Exarch's cloak, and some Archon loaf because everyone needs to suffer it
