NAME: AweStriker, or just Awe for short JOURNAL: awestriker E-MAIL: awestrikernova@gmail.com CONTACT INFO: (aim) AweStrikerNova, (tumblr) infinitescrollofawe, (plurk) awestriker CHARACTERS PLAYED: Mia (Golden Sun) @ mercuryangel, Alcor (Devil Survivor 2) @ eightofseven   character. CHARACTER NAME: Faris Scherwiz (or, Sarisa Scherwil Tycoon) SERIES: Final Fantasy V CANON POINT: Post-game, almost immediately after having destroyed Neo-Exdeath (before the ending) APPEARANCE: Character designer Yoshitaka Amano's artwork here; in-game appearance here. DESIRED CLASS & REASONING: Adept Rogue (Steam Gunner/Blade Brandier). FFV uses a Job System, allowing for basically free-form customization of each playable character. However, Faris is a pirate by occupation and nothing quite says "pirate" like guns with swords. There is a slight hiccup in the fact that guns don't exist in the FFV world, although cannons do (as demonstrated by the Advance version's Cannoneer job). But that should just make it more fun.   PERSONALITY: Faris, born Sarisa Scherwil Tycoon and rightful heir to Tycoon's throne, was, in fact, raised by pirates, having been knocked off her father's ship in a storm when she was a wee lass (as she would put it). Because of this, she more often than not comes across as a man (to my knowledge, the only person to ever immediately identify her as female is Gilgamesh), but quickly gets over it if her true sex is revealed (well, if she needs to get over it, anyway). Her life up until the beginning of the game also gave her something of a selfish streak, as well as leadership skills from being a captain.   When, however, the rest of her party (Bartz, Galuf, and Lenna) sneaks into their hideout and attempts to steal their ship, she shows a softer side of herself, stirred on by her curiosity at Lenna's possession of a pendant identical to her own. Shortly thereafter she is named as a Warrior of Light, representing Fire, the element of Courage.   Over the course of the game she continues to display her bravery, often being the first to respond to a stressful situation (such as at North Mountain, when Lenna is shot with a poisoned arrow.), and also coming to the realization that Lenna is indeed her sister, becoming very protective of her. She also now has a deep love for her "Papa", the late King of Tycoon.   samples. FIRST-PERSON SAMPLE:   [Faris looked at the weapon in her hands and didn't have a clue what to do with it.]   [It had a blade, but the grip wasn't right for slashing. She'd had the powers of quite a few heroes before her, and none of them seemed like they'd held anything ilke this.]   [Eh, at least she still had a sword. She was expecting to be attacked, or encounter monsters, at any moment; she had a weapon she knew how to use; she had a task that was right up her alley - as if someone needed to ask a pirate to go treasure hunting.]   [Sure, she'd taken a break from piracy now that she was a Warrior of Light, but the treasure hunting rather conveniently remained, even if it was usually incidental to saving the world... no, worlds.]   [Which brought her to this place. It certainly wouldn't have been out of place in the Rift. Was it part of the Rift? Whoever built it must have been somethin' else, if that was the case.]   [A goblin dared to attack her. She cleaved it in half without a second thought and moved on.]   THIRD-PERSON SAMPLE:   (Not necessary, as I run two characters already.)   OTHER/NOTES: Her canon abilities are linked to her Crystal shards, which will be locked in her inventory until Level 20. She'll have what she was "equipped" with (Spellblade and Rapid Fire, no Dual Wield) until then.   I am rerunning the game with the abilities she'll get eventually!
