Personality and Abilities:
Personality Traits:(+) Honest - Theo considers himelf truthful, however sometimes he is too honest.He would only be dishonest to protect those he loves and cares about, and those worthy of protection. The death of his mother reinforced his honesty, it caused him to vow to be virtuous and genuine out of respect for his mother's principal belief, that honesty is the best policy. His honest etiquette and approach makes him easy to talk to about problems as he will rarely lie to someone, just to make them feel better. Therefore, despite his honesty sometimes being viewed as offensive and critical, it is more often viewed in a good aspect, being one of his more defining traits. It also enhances the effect that his morals and beliefs have on his everyday life and other people.
(+) Loyal - Theo is considered as the most loyal person they know by the majority of his friends. His loyalty is extremely important to him in that it defines him as a person. His father taught him to be loyal from a young age, constantly reminding of Theo of his success due to his loyalty to his friend, Ronaldo, who paid for the vineyard. His loyalty makes him a good friend to all who are repay the loyalty, and hell to anyone who doesn't. His recent interest in Unionism has enhanced his loyalty due to him now being loyal to the religion and anyone who believes in it.
(=)Adventurous - Theo showed interest in the unknown from a young age, frequently adventuring and finding new areas in and around the vineyard. This is a trait that still sticks with him now, constantly wanting something new. He gets a thrill out of adventuring that no other activity can provide. No one knows from whom he inherits this trait from but it plays an important part in the structure of his personality, acting as a foundation for everything else.
(=)Polite - Theo refuses to look down on anyone, no matter their race or gender. This doesn't mean he believes in equality for all, however. Due to his unionist beliefs he believes in the superiority of the Ailor race. Though, on the contrary, he does not believe in expressing racist beliefs in public just to cause trouble. Although this trait takes a back seat in his personality, it is still there and shows it's face every so often.
(-) Perfectionist - Theo is renowned within his friend groups for being a perfectionist. This is, quite frankly, the most annoying and aggravating trait that Theo allows to surface, only on occasion. Although it doesn't show very often, when it does it aggravates many people. This comes from his mother when he was young, she had to have everything in the right place and so drilled this into him to try to stop him from misplacing items.
(-)Impulsive - Theo tends to jump into fights when pressure is put on him. If he is stuck in a corner, he will get out of it as soon as he can, even if it means doing something stupid without thinking. No one knows where he inherits this from however it is suspected that it is from a childhood experience.
Strengths:
(+)Agile - Due to his tutor specialising in quick fighting, Theo is very agile when he is fighting. Although Theo isn't particularly strong, he makes up for it in his speed and agility. Many fights have been won because of people underestimating him as he doesn't look strong yet when it comes down to it, strength isn't everything. The length and weight of his weapons reflect and enhance his agility as they are both light and relatively short. Some compare his speed and agility to a Jungle Stalker, being able to outwit his opponents with swift and powerful movements.
(+)Intelligent - He might not look it but Theo is reasonably smart (for a commoner, that is). He was educated by his father and later tutored by the same man who taught him to fight. He often outwits his opponents with smart footwork and well thought out tactics. His intelligence paired with his agility and speed makes him deadly.
(+)Brave - Theo does not fear anything other than the void, which he believes will lead to the inevitable end of Aloria. This could be seen as both a blessing and a curse, if he underestimates his opponents it could lead to his death. Theo himself, however, sees it as a blessing. If he doesn't fear anything it makes life more pleasing. It opens endless possibilities.
Weaknesses:
(-)Blind in his right eye - On his journey to Regalia, Theo was ambushed by bandits. He managed to fight them off but not without obtaining some injuries. He is blind in his right eye and has a scar both there and on his back from where the bandits injured him. Due to this, his depth perception is completely off, causing him to have a problem with large blades, sometimes underestimating the length or lethality of a weapon. This also causes him to fall short of some attempts at a strike.
(-)Drinking Problem - After the traumatic events of his life, Theo confided in alcohol, specifically ale. Drinking often causes him to do stupid things, causing unnecessary disputes and saying things he does not necessarily mean. This could be lethal as it also causes his ability to fight to decline. Theo tends to be drunk more than he is sober, visiting the tavern at least 2 times per day. He relies on alcohol as a way to escape the stress of his everyday life.
(-)Fear of Magic - Virtually the only fear he has, Theo has a serious phobia of magic. In his mind, it's the only thing that can cause pain, not only for the rest of your life, but in the afterlife too. He tries to stay away from magic because of this. This is due to his aunt using void magic when he was young. She later got possessed and almost killed his uncle. This did happen before Theo was born but he later saw the scars it left on his uncle, both mentally and physically. This paired with his uncle drilling the fear into him caused Theo to have a genuine, life-long, fear of the void.
Life Story:
Childhood (0-13):Theo's childhood was full of adventure, excitement, and fun. His parents were the proud owners of a vineyard in central Ithania, far away from any big villages or any civilisation at all. His parents were a strange case, choosing not to believe in Unionism and instead choosing to not worship any faith. Theo ventured into the mountain range close to the farm frequently and brought back stones (or "trinkets" as he liked to call them) to commemorate his journeys. One day, when he was 10, he brought back a rather unusual gem. It glowed a fierce red colour and he was attracted to it from the moment he saw it. When he came of age, his uncle (who was a blacksmith in the closest village to the family) forged Theo an ornate short sword using that gemstone as a pommel stone. Theo still uses that sword to this day. When Theo turned 10, his father hired a tutor to teach him the art of sword fighting and also to educate him on an intellectual level too. Although the family normally could not afford this, the previous year's harvest was plentiful and the family made a lot of money from it, the same could be said for the following 5 years. When he was 12, Theo found out his mother was pregnant. Theo had always wanted a baby brother and was thrilled about the news. His mother went into labour 2 weeks early and not only did the baby die during the birth but so did Theo's mother. After a year of grievance because of his mother's death, Theo and his father had finally gotten over her death. They also requested that Theo's uncle came and lived with them to pick up the extra work that Theo's mother would have done.
Teenage Years (14-20):
Theo's teenage years were far less eventful than his childhood. To be totally honest, not much happened at all. Theo finished his tutoring at the age of 15 as he had learned all he could and knew how to protect himself. After the training was finished, his tutor gave Theo an ornate iron dagger to protect himself with, he said to treasure it as it might be his last chance one day. Theo and his uncle developed a good relationship during this time due to his father being much more distant after his mother's death. When he was 20, Theo's father was diagnosed with a terminal disease, leaving Theo and his uncle devastated.
Young Adult Years (21-now):
A few weeks after Theo's 21st birthday, his father died, leaving the vineyard in the hand's of Theo's uncle. Theo then fell into a downwards spiral, he had lost all faith in the world, attempting suicide numerous times before deciding to move to regalia. His reason for moving to Regalia was that the vineyard reminded him too much of his father and that he couldn't face living there anymore. He said his (what turned out to be his final) goodbyes to his uncle and set off to Regalia by boat. After a smooth(ish) trip to the coastal regions of Regalia, Theo set off on a horse cart to the city. On his way he was ambushed by a group of bandits asking for a toll so he could pass. As he had only a few regals on him, Theo had to fight his way through them. Using his trusty shortsword and the dagger his tutor had given him, he fought them off. He didn't emerge from the fight unscathed though, one of the bandits had slashed down on his eye, causing him to go blind in that eye. After struggling to get to Regalia, he set off to the infirmary immediate to get his eye looked at. They patched him up but he stayed there for over a week, not having a proper look at the city until he was releases. He was lost in a city with no money and no home until he found exactly what he needed...
Recent History (Played through on the server):
A mercenary group was looking for recruits, it was exactly what he needed, good pay and a roof over his head. He applied and they accepted him, he had all he needed but it wasn't what he wanted. Soon after joining the group, Theo received a letter telling him that his uncle had died and handed down the vineyard to him. Theo then went on to sell the vineyard and buy himself a house in the noble district of Regalia. It was then that he realised that the mercenary life no longer suited him. He quit the mercenary group and went to the tavern in search of work. It was there that he met a man named Havard Nordtviet, a preacher, who convinced him to pursue Unionism and potentially join the Regalian Military. Although Theo decided to put off joining the military, he did find comfort in Unionism. As aforementioned, Theo did not believe in any religion before he met Havard. It served as a ray of light in the dark cavern of Theo's heart, mind and soul. It saved Theo's life.
