AppearanceSorry I can't have a fixed design on him yet, Don't really have the quota to download the character benchmark...

But here's how's he in my mind:

- Big Roegadyn male, heavy and tall,

- Dark skinned,

- About 36 - 40 y/o perhaps,

- Has a large patch of baldness on his head, but managed to grow what is left of his hair to a shoulder length or more.

- One of his eye is scarred and blind,

- Has various other scars and cut marks on his body,

- His belly is not six packs, not eight packs, but a measly one pack!



Sorry for the rough sketch...

IdeaHe is to RP as a comedic character.

A gentle, nature-loving giant; a simple man leading a simple life with an equally simple mind.  A simpleton perhaps?

He is not capable of thinking about complicated things, and his carefree nature does allow him to laugh at the little things in life.
He never really allocates too much of a brain processing of what is happening around him; the current trends, gossips, killer bargains, breaking news, he is oblivious to those-- preferring to live his life in his own pace.

He is a diehard animal lover, especially birds! Ah, such magnificent creature! He believes that if only he could grew colorful feathers, maybe he could fly too!


For a living... or more precisely-- to earn enough money to buy the next serving of his favorite Shrimp Rolls, he has done quite a handful of odd jobs here and there;

Once, he spends some years working in an understaffed orphanage, in its kitchen; preparing the dishes, cooking, and often also helps with the laundry, babysitting, reading bedtime stories, and more. A child at heart, he gets along with children easily enough although his slowness in thinking makes him a regular target of pranks.

Sometimes later he also works part time in a- yet again understaffed small restaurant which specializes in dumplings. Seafood dumplings! It is served while hot and super-steamy, full of juicy goodness and the fresh smell of sea!

Afterward, he spends some another good years working in an- guess what, another understaffed animal shelter. He made a lot of furry friends there. Really fun! Because unlike people, animals don't judge and that makes him feel at peace.

Finally, the one and only reason this guy travels ALL across Hydaelyn and got involved in so many troubles and misadventures is to look for his missing pet bird from the shelter! His MOST favorite pet bird!


"Have you seen my bird? Eh, you do? Really? THIS Bird?"

Oh and Eyriswyr is not a brawler. He is strong given his size, but he is not fond of violence, especially if it against the wildlife.
 
In his mission of searching for his lost bird, he unwittingly involved in many journey along with the other adventurers and... usually much to the dismay of his party, this guy just cannot put that massive body size to good use, prefers the supportive role of the medic instead.

Well, as a chef he indeed has experiences in regards to bone and flesh structures, and from years in animal shelter he is no stranger in mending the wounds of animals such as dogs, cats, raccoon, parakeets... can it safely be applied to humans too?

A-anyway he could now announce that he is an experienced medic- even on his way to become a White Mage!

A White Mage with biceps to boot!

NickWhen Eyriswyr got to the big city for the first time, he befriends a friendly Lalafell tour guide who cannot easily got hold of Eyriswyr's name, referring to him as "Mr. Ferris Wheel" instead.

At first of course, Eyriswyr disagree, "Who? Ferris Wheel? That's not me!"

"But... Mister, you just said that yourself! Your name is 'Erris Wheer!", the Lalafell defends.

"Uhh... I did said that?", Eyriswyr ponders for a while, "Well, maybe that's how the folks in big city rolls huh?"

"Rolls? Yes! Rolls! Uh-huh uh-huh!", the Lalafell nods quickly, "You know, Ferris Wheel is a very good name for a very good object, Mister!"

"Ehh... Object?"

"Uhhh...", the Lalafell tries to choose his words, "You know, Mister, it's a big, VERY big circular thing that goes round and round and round! Great invention of the Hyur! Great entertainment!"

"Ohh! Hahahah!", Eyriswyr seems delighted, "That Ferris Wheel sounds a LOT like me! Well except for the circular, round and round, invention of Hyur, and the great entertainment... Anyway, I like it!"

And so from then on, Eyriswyr introduces himself as Ferris Wheel for the non-Roegadyn people he met because, well you know, having a "big city" name is good for getting along with big city people, and people of big city are good sources of information regarding your lost bird!

Likes- Animals; and among the faunas, birds always have a special place in Eyriswyr's heart.

- Food. Seafood especially. The surefire way to win Eyriswyr's affection (and attention) is through his stomach! Some shrimps in the ingredients will not hurt either.

- Shrimp Rolls. What? No, Shrimp Rolls are not the same as food! Not for Eyriswyr, because he worships them, prays to them, and swears by them!

- Lalafells. Why? No particular reasons really. Maybe because his first friend is a Lalafell, or maybe because Eyriswyr's protective nature feels that these diminutive race... is in need of a BIG friend who would look out for them!

Dislikes- Cats; Miqo'te included. Why? Because there's nothing but troubles with cats! These creatures stalk and pounce his birds all the time! Cats also regularly steal his Shrimp Rolls! What do these have to do with Miqo'te? Well I guess Eyriswyr is just not very fond of cat ears... or tails.

- Fights. Fistfights especially, because Eyriswyr believes that everything can be settled peacefully if only people (and animals, monsters) would just hug each other and go order Shrimp Rolls at the nearest stand.
