Basic Info
Name: Percival
Sex: Male
Species: Human
Age: 25
Birthday: July 6th
Appearance
Percy is 6'2 and under all his armor he's thinner than you'd imagine, but obviously still pretty toned from his training. He's got a long (and quite lovely if you ask him) mane of luscious smokey brown hair and silver eyes like clouds on a rainy day.
Clothing/Armor Style: Just as you see in picture, Sir Percival's armor is light for both protection and speed in combat. It's colored blue and gold with a black chainmail suit underneath it.
Personal Information
Personality: Percival quite the goofy guy. His manner of speech is needlessly flowery and poetic. He takes great value in his appearance and you'll often find him staring in a mirror or in the reflection of a pond, absolutely in awe of his own beautiful beautiful face. Many would describe him as narcissistic and effeminate, because he tends to care more about his appearance than most women, often spending a majority of his money on clothes and cologne. Speaking of which, he's known to frivolously spend his money.
However, the narcissistic part isn't completely true. Percival cares deeply for his fellow man, especially those that can't defend themselves. That's why he fights, to protect the weak! You know, like most knights. He can be quite goofy, airheaded, and naïve in his quest to heal the world. As a child he was quite sheltered and hasn't really experienced the effects of poverty and what it can do to the mind. The world is very black and white to him, there are heroes and villains and he's a pretty pretty hero. He tends to whine when things get difficult.
Likes
- Chatting: Sometimes it seems like Percy never shuts up once you get him going.
- Looking Good: As mentioned in his personality, Percy's pretty obsessed with his appearance, but he also likes to "look good" in any given scenario, such as being on the right side of an argument or a bet.
- Flowers: Percival loves them and stops to admire them quite often.
Dislikes
- Villains: Anyone Percy views as evil or just a little bit mean are bound to get a lecture...or you know like... killed.
- Being Unkept: Percy can't stand being unclean or unpresentable and he hates when others are as well.
- Moral Ambiguity: Percival isn't that smartest cookie and moral grey areas tend to make him very uncomfortable.
Fears
- Growing Old: Fearful that his appearance will deteriorate eventually, he searches for ways to extend his youth everywhere he goes.
- Commitment: Being such a beautiful man means to get to "experience" many beautiful people. The concept of putting a ring on just one terrifies him.
Biography
Percival grew up with the easy life. His family was a relatively wealthy one and he lived a life of comfort. The sky was the limit for him, he could have been a scholar or a merchant, maybe even a royal adviser if he used his connections. But Percival always had dreams of being a knight and going on epic quests and rescuing princesses and being loved by the populace. This romantic way of looking at life continued into his teens, as did his childhood dreams and he became a squire in the Zephyr's royal army at the age of 14.
He trained in the military and eventually rose from the bottom, to, well, the middle, as a passable soldier. Mostly, his job was to take care of bandits and rescue cats from trees. Zephyr wasn't very eventful until the war with Ignis began. That's when shit got real. Percival had to take part in real combat, with actual trained soldiers, not random vagabonds. Ignis's army proved to be too much for the royal army, and Percival witnessed their power firsthand. He found himself short many friends he knew from the military two years later. However, even in these trying times he keeps a smile on his face.
