End Reshiki
Name:	End Reshiki
Nicknames:	Has been referred to as 'Moogle', 'Teddybear', and 'Rodent'
RP world:	Gaera
Birthdate:	1295 (month and day unknown)
Current Residence:	Was dead for about two years, so his former house is likely gone by now. Possibly at Kyle Broadsky and Fresca Dantir's ranch in Doma City, Doma
Occupation:	Adventurer, occasional mercenary
Family:	Father (deceased), Mother (deceased), Gryx (adoptive parent of Reshiki Dragoon faction, deceased)
Race:	Half-Moogle/Half-Dragon (Einheriar)
Physical Description:	To be filled in later.
Typical Clothing:	Likes to wear his Reshiki clan armor. A lot. If he weren't wearing that, he'd be running around nekkid, free like the wind!
Personality:	Reshiki liked the role of 'hero'. A lot. So much so, in fact, that he took great pride in and relished the chance to fight evil beings and do heroic deeds. The fact that this path has led him, time and time again, to an untimely demise, to the point where he is no longer a material being but a Celestial has tempered this belief somewhat, although he has yet to reveal this. After his initial experiences with Astrynax, he became a bit more vapid yet quite a bit cheerier and tried to act as a source of good will for his assorted friends. However, even that desire has begun to fade as he has regained some of his intelligence in the afterlife. Time will tell if this more somber state of mind will affect his relationships with others. Still BEST BUDS 4EVR with Kyle Broadsky.
Religious Beliefs:	Doesn't really worship any particular gods, though he does know of Ryuugami from what Dia Rai has told him, and he recognizes Stacey's power after seeing her unfortunate victims.
Drunk type:	Incredibly destructive. Infamously destroyed the Jade Dragon Inn after drinking an entire Fusionaire. It has been recommended that he not ever drink again.
Other:	As noted above, End Reshiki, after his most recent death (at the hands of Malachias) has become a Celestial, an Einheriar, or, more specifically, an Ideal Celestial. He was chosen to represent the ideal of Courage after selflessly throwing himself into the line of battle time and time again. This carries with it all of the benefits that a Celestial would gain, but he somewhat misses his 'regular' body. Naturally, he hasn't admitted this. He used to like eating food, but since he doesn't need to eat anymore, he no longer feels hunger. He's rather depressed about this. He owns a pet tentacle monster, from regions unknown. It has a bad habit of escaping and attacking the homeless.

Life Story

End Reshiki is the last Reshiki Dragoon. He was formerly a member of Astrynax's Griffonic Mage clan, as were his parents. His parents were a Moogle and a Dragon, and they supposedly had a great talent for magic. Unfortunately, though the rest of the clan was slaughtered by the Reshiki Dragoons, he alone was spared, and taken back to be trained as a Dragoon. Gryx, one of the older Dragoons and one who had not been directly involved with the attack on the mages, took it upon himself to raise End and teach him how to properly use a lance.

The day came when Astrynax, with the assistance of the Rivans, slaughtered all of the Reshiki Dragoons, save End. End was naturally infuriated, but was unable to stand for long against the mage. Many of the Rivans had been killed in the prior battle, so Astrynax allowed the Moogle to flee for the time being in order to gather additional support. What followed was a cat-and-mouse chase in which Astrynax and the Rivans slaughtered each of the companions End Reshiki came across, in addition to a small community of dragons.

End managed to retreat to Doma, and once he was there he realized that in order to continue surviving, he would have to subsist on others. He was essentially forced to learn to steal, though the dexterity he had gained under Dragoon training certainly didn't hurt. Quite a bit of consequence happened while End was in Doma, involving an attempt on his life, but this was quickly left behind when End was forced to reunite with Astrynax. Astrynax, fairly confident that he would be able to ultimately dispose of End this time, let slip that he planned to take a proper amount of 'bloodshed' from Gaera as revenge for what has happened. This plan, by chance, involved the Elemental Crystals and their utilisation to summon the dread force of "Mu"...

The battle left End near death, but, by chance, a halfdragon by the name of Dia Rai and the lapdragon Fluffy passed by and healed him. The three eventually joined with two others: Dragan Rahl, Dia's teacher of sorts, and Lance, a vampire who had originally been involved in the attempt on End's life, to band against Astrynax, who was already well into his plot. Although they failed to stop Astrynax's gathering of the crystals and ultimate summoning of Mu, the four did manage to defeat Astrynax, with the unfortunate side effect of End Reshiki being sealed away.

Two years would pass, and End and Astrynax would fight once more. Only this battle would end both of their lives. End was to be taken to be judged, but a slight accident occurred on the way, and a number of months later, he fell back onto Gaera, lacking his memory. A few weeks later, his memory returned, and he reacquainted himself with a Gaera that had changed since his last visit.

End would gather a number of friends and allies in the months that passed, and even though Astrynax eventually returned in wraith form, he had their support and assistance. Astrynax's reformation caused there to be a truce of some sort between the two, though this would never truly stop the battles between the two.

End went on to right quite a few wrongs and work for the good of Doma and Gaera. Whereas he was originally a rather impolite and rough warrior, he gradually became the compassionate, empathic, and kind little Moogle that he is today. A number of blows to the head over time have apparently softened his intelligence, but he still remains relatively competent at magic and mental trickery. He still loots every now and then, having developed a knack for it. Due to this, he is rather well-known by the guards and even the Queen and King of Doma, and he does his best to stay out of their sight. Although he had supposedly 'died' by the hands of Malachias during the final battle of the Doman War, it was soon revealed that he had become an Ideal Celestial, one representing the ideal of courage. While this would be considered an honor, Reshiki is somewhat embarassed by the distinction and does his best to hide the fact.
