Arthur would rather be wearing things that are a bit looser and easier to move in. [b][color=fdc68a]Strengths:[/color][/b] Max of 3 (Physically based) - Small Stature: Arthur's small size makes him a harder target to hit from range and, with a little effort, allow for him to fit into places otherwise inaccessible. - Mental Acuity: Arthur's sharp mind and quick wit make him a brilliant candidate for learning magic. [b][color=fdc68a]Weaknesses:[/color][/b] Minimal of 2 (Physically based) - Easily Fatigued: A life of nobility comes with being waited on hand and foot. Although not physically weak, per se, physical activity does exhaust Arthur more quickly and for longer periods than others. - Apathetic: Arthur hasn't really had something to give his all towards, making him uninterested in many things.

Instead, Arthur is kind, compassionate, and would rather be a Knight standing guard for the city he grew up in. He knows that his sisters' status as Knights will keep the family name in Noble status far longer than this shortsighted arrangement between his father and some shopkeepers around Azure's Gate. Arthur's dream to be helpful to his city keeps him in Azure's Gate as without that allegiance, Arthur would have left to pursue happiness elsewhere. It would also help if he didn't feel guilty for some of the things he's done and hides. [b][color=fdc68a]Habits:[/color][/b] - Arthur tugs at his collar when uncomfortable and nervous. - Arthur meditates on life before sleeping. [b][color=fdc68a]Hobbies:[/color][/b] - Reading [b][color=fdc68a]Fears:[/color][/b] - Nyctophobia/Darkness - Aquaphobia/Water [b][color=fdc68a]Likes:[/color][/b] - Summer Weather - Rain - Good Food - Small Dogs - The Knights of Azure's Gate [b][color=fdc68a]Dislikes:[/color][/b] - Thunder - His Father - Spicy Food - Aggressive People - Cats [h3][b][i][color=fdc68a][center]Skills[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3][color=fdc68a][i][center][sup]A listing of skills, such as horseback riding or cooking.

This ended with an injured Sophia and a very apologetic Arthur. He did learn a little, but he hasn't attempted since. [*] [b][color=fdc68a]Deception (Apprentice):[/color][/b] Feigning innocence, misleading others, Lying. Arthur may not be great at any of it, but he's been believed more often lately. Maybe he's getting better. [*] [b][color=fdc68a]Finances (Novice):[/color][/b] Arthur has been forced to learn about this by his father as he's capable of running the 'Vastria Empire.' Arthur hates finances but knows a small amount about spending and saving money well. [*] [b][color=fdc68a]Magic Arts (Apprentice):[/color][/b] Both Arthur's mother and grandfather saw Arthur's affinity for the Magical Arts. Books of spells, Magical items, and stories of magic have interested Arthur forever. If it wasn't for Arthur's father attempting to make Arthur the next head of the family business, Arthur might have pursued Knighthood.

It creates a small circle, buckler-esque in size, of blue energy capable of blocking most physical assaults. Force that would cause the barrier to break can be transferred to Arthur, injuring him. The barrier has a limited range of about 50 feet and can be moved around as long as Arthur focuses on doing so. If Arthur stops focusing on the barrier, it will dissipate after a few seconds. [/list] [h3][b][i][color=fdc68a][center]History[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [b][color=fdc68a]Parents:[/color][/b] - Arthur's father is alive and well, overseeing the finances of a the 'Vastria Empire,' a few tailors around Azure's Gate. Arthur has been forced into learning about the family business, even though his older sisters would be better at running it than he would be, and it has caused a bit of resentment towards his father. Oh... His father is his namesake... so there's that. - Arthur's mother helps run the 'Vastria Empire' alongside his father. She, however, would rather Arthur be allowed to pursue the things he enjoyed and explore the magic heritage that he has. Arthur loves her, even if he doesn't say it often. Arthur also believes that his mother would be better at running the business than his father. [b][color=fdc68a]Siblings:[/color][/b] - Izabelle Nicolle Vastria - Eldest sister, 24 - They were close, but after Izabelle was promoted to Knight Rank 1st, she's been a bit too busy to be home. Arthur misses her and times like the ones they shared previously, but wouldn't say that to anyone. - Sophia Rebecca Vastria - Older sister, 22 - A bit distant after the archery incident, Sophia poured herself into catching up to Izabelle. She's only started her trek through Knighthood at Knight Rank 3rd. Arthur is still trying to figure out how to apologize for shooting her in the shoulder with an arrow. [b][color=fdc68a]Childhood:[/color][/b] Arthur's childhood doesn't have much to note. Born to a father who's ego leaves Arthur with the same name and a mother with notable talent for the arcane arts. Two older sisters, each who befriended and adored Arthur; doing what they were able to help raise him. At 12 years of age, his father begun to induct him into the family business, bringing him along to meetings with store owners, teaching him how to handle money. Arthur found most of this to be boring and told his father as such, even saying that Izabelle seemed more interested in doing this than he was. Arthur's father told him that only he could run the 'Vastria Empire' and sent him away, calling butlers and servants to keep a tighter leash on Arthur. This, in turn, caused Arthur to be more distant and begin lying to get out of doing what his father wished. [b][color=fdc68a]Adulthood:[/color][/b] As he's just begun his trek into adulthood, the only real notable bit would be his grandfather teaching him Barrier and his grandfather's passing. His grandfather didn't really have too much of an impact on his life, but he cherishes the small piece that his grandfather left. [b][color=fdc68a]Special Moments:[/color][/b] Learning Barrier from his grandfather, His sisters being inducted into the Knights. [b][color=fdc68a]Current Events:[/color][/b] While skipping out on one of his father's meetings, Arthur noticed Knights returning to Azure's Gate, The Woodwraith and The Storming Queen being notable among them. As he wanted to know what was going on, he followed the knights up to the... palace? ... to hear the queen, whether or not he was supposed to be there.
