Virtues:
Spoiler

Gold Hearted: Is more generous then his fierce nature lets on, tending to confuse others with his almost polar opposite behaviors making him tend to help even when not asked to, exhausting himself to great lengths for little reward. This inclination for aid is what brought him to be a tank, accepting the brunt of damage before harm befalls those around him is his first priority in any situation.

Willful: Will deliberately put himself in situations that are dangerous or volatile and he might even know the fact or foresee ending poorly, disregarding his own safety for the sake of another. His determination can be seen as inhuman at times, his wellbeing the last thing on his mind and his allies the first to which he does not falter. He is not afraid of dying for the sake of others.

Honorable (Works as a flaw): A spoken word is binding to which Raidou will never let it rest until the conditions are met, extending to all forms. Simply put if the nomad claims he will do something, he will die trying to fulfill it. Sometimes this could be a self-induced prophecy that may become obnoxious to the holder of the contract.

Tactician/Wise: Careful study of his surroundings and descriptions picking up on the finer points. Extends to a steel trap mind that forgets nothing spoken or seen, Raidou plans everything out (Analytic) and abuses what he learns to produce a method of attack. Weighing the odds of success and doing everything in his power to sway them entirely in his and his comrade's favor is rather a commonplace.

Flaws:
Spoiler

Analytic: overly cautious and prepares in excess, producing consumable items to something that would easily not require such things. This also plays into a waste of time as he transcribes quests, player information, and the like and runs numbers for probability to reduce the chances of failure. Quick flights of fancy or jumping into the fray at a moment's notice call for a bit of hesitation before action.

Humorless: Most forms of humor don't receive a response, just a plain face looking on questionably as he struggles to understand the purpose. He will not make jokes and most of the time simply will not understand them either. What is left is a rather dry black and white perspective that destroys most forms of comedy, to see him laugh would surely be a rare sight.

Fierce: Doesn't back down or out of a fight, plays subtly into his golden heartedness due to the fact he will stand strong in adversity to prevent harm from befalling his comrades. A close inspection shows a clenched jaw when he speaks, in short words he lays out small phrases that can be mistaken for orders given the bark they free as. Once riddled with insecurity all that is left in this vacuum is a fire in the pit of his stomach. This anger plays directly on the appearance of his hatred in the form of red mist.

Character History:
Spoiler

Raidou is a loaner who enjoys reading in the real world to his family's dismay, a scholar born to a family of fighters he was forced to follow suit and learn Mugen-Tenshin (a martial arts style in Japanese dojo) in archaic fashion with little interest and excessive resistance. Raidou, because of his strange nature coupled with an over-analysis of people's words causing anger in those he spoke with, began to withdraw from any interactions, becoming a hikikomori of sorts, afraid of any interaction with other people for fear of a wrong step. Raidou becomes irritable and hostile when forced into a conversation or he sets his mind on something, causing his fight response to kick in. This usually ends in him yelling with grit teeth or walking on without a word. Raidou is a very kind and gentle pretty boy, often times silently aiding others and withdrawing without a word. Raidou came to S.A.O to escape reality because the real world just isn't for him. Inside he finally finds the ground to stand on. Those he meets change his perspectives and teach him what it means to be human, a fact he was denied in reality.

Bonds
World.png
Freyd
Spoiler

A brother in arms, unshackled by a world that wishes to take his life. Ease of motive flows between both him and the wanderer. The truest form of reflection, to which no words need be spoken. The owner of one of his burdens, allows the air to reach the wanderer's lungs.

Eruda
Spoiler

The woman of his dreams, one that has endured his path. A pair of supportive hands that nutured his heart, while the fragments of his mind sewed themselves back together. Those same hands share the world he was trying to build, while supporting the burdens he'd once carried.

Fool.png Nari-Lanreth
Spoiler

A traveler, the same, one that has a road to explore. There are some similarities in the path she is starting and the one the wanderer had walked. The question is how it will differ, and what will the fool learn along the way?

Magician.png Freyd
Spoiler

A change has been made, through hardship and turmoil. A true bond has been formed.

Priestess.png Ruri ~Reversed~
Spoiler

A small girl forgotten to time but since reborn anew, an accidental success. Open and honest, true to her word and isn't afraid to break boundaries. What was lost is now found, what comes next remains to be seen.

Empress.png
Lessa ~Reversed~
Spoiler

A kindred soul, solid and grounded. Remains collected when it matters, and pushes forward to see a task to completion. A faint sense of worry is laced on her words, a fear of being left behind. Curious, is the only reason because she keeps turning to offer a hand to those who need it?

Emperor.png
Bahr ~Reversed~
Spoiler

Hotheaded and bold, aggressive and lethal. All words that accurately describe the lead of the tarot. Although his methods may be unorthodox, he is extremely effective at exploiting his strength.

Hierophant.png
Griswold
Spoiler

The guild blacksmith with an aged wisdom, forger of most of his weapons that prove to propagate into the defense of others. If the need should ever arise from council it would probably stem from here.

Gaius
Spoiler

A brash and reckless powerhouse, easily flies off the handle and must be contained. Bested in one on one combat, the man knows now to follow the orders he is given but once in a while must be reminded.

Pavan
Spoiler

A keen gaze into the fibers of the heart, seems quite convinced that to understand one they must be in tune with their own. Which begs the question, can Pavan see what he preaches?

Morgenstern ~Reversed~
Spoiler

The white king, impulsive and overtly assertive. Seems keen on a domineering protection of Violet, an attachment that is either welcome or toxic. It is as if she is the only thing he has left.

 
Lovers.png
Eruda
Spoiler

A change has been made, through hardship and turmoil. A true bond has been formed.

Chariot.png
Kiluia
Spoiler

A dear friend from a time long before, has seen Raidou in many of different lights. Is the only man found worthy of the girl that is like a sister to him: Haine. When the going gets tough, he knows that Kiluia is always at his side to fight just as harshly.

Justice.png
Kasumi
Spoiler

Strong but gentle the girl has a lot to learn when it comes to fighting without regret. His cousin and one that he wishes to keep from being sullied by this place. She is too pure to be in this game.

Glenn ~Reversed~
Spoiler

Taken to his sister, protective almost to a fault. It seems to be irritating to the receiver, but even if it is misguided and twisted. Deep down, it's due because he cares.

Macradon
Spoiler

Placeholder

Hermit.png
Alkor
Spoiler

Calm and meticulous, careful and cautious. Through sands or darkened lighting, the man seems unfrittered and unfazed. A cool head that is reliable, the phoenix who's fire only burns outward.

Fortune.png
Simmone
Spoiler

A greedy yet useful merchant, first introductions brought about the feeling of gluttony. Seems that somewhere in that lust for wealth beats a heart and an intelligible wit.

Strength.png
Ariel
Spoiler

Taught him strength through a confrontation with a serpent. Has seen a bit of his past as he has been made known of her own. One of the forces that convinced him to see things from a perspective faced forward with the heart of a lion.

Ronan ~Reversed~
Spoiler

Stuck in a mindset, leaning to the fates to escape them. Understands method and motive to a point, but seems reluctant to make the dive. If fates were so absolute, and she were condemned. Then why does she try?

Megitsune ~Reversed~
Spoiler

A powerful and motivated Fox, led the wanderer onto the path he now walks. His words should be his own, and should come as freely as they are thought up. That is what was imparted by the yokai that instead of leading him astray had chose to correct his journey.

Hanged.png
Mari
Spoiler

Difficult and hard to see eye to eye with and burns as bright as a roaring flame. It seems as though the burden she carries, the one she wrote a song to compliment is so great that it aims to claim the breath from her lungs. How does one help those who do not wish for your aid?

Death.png
Setsuna ~Reversed~
Spoiler

A small child that has been through enough turmoil to lash out at the red wanderer. She wishes to be a weapon, one that can cut down those that oppose those that she feels she owes a debt. Raidou has taken to shaping her into a warrior in old customs, hopefully guiding her to some serenity to temper that fury.

Temperance.png
Shield
Spoiler

A chiseled and grizzled veteran, ripe with knowledge and wisdom. An excellent fishing partner and one to discuss ideas and ideals, a form of peace is found when time is spent with him.

Hidden ~Reversed~
Spoiler

Troubled and branded in orange, the girl has what seems to be a past on her tail as a shadow does. There seems to be a tinge of attempts to find a path that liberates her from her bonds, and should she need a partner to walk that road, she'd need only ask.

Baldur
Spoiler

Placeholder

Rosa ~Reversed~
Spoiler

In great pain, despite appearances. The woman has convinced herself that she has grieved, but hasn't. The vitriol still courses through her veins, turning to caution and defensiveness. To a fault, that even when warned she could not see danger.

Devil.png
Shiina
Spoiler

A bubbly but sporadic child. Refers to the wanderer as "book boi" given his inclination to reading. She knew him prior to Aincrad, as his neighbor they had exchanged nothing more than greetings in passing.

Tower.png
Sam
Spoiler

Aimless and unmotivated, the girl seems to lack focus to keep herself oriented on tasks at hand. Much more development could make her a valuable addition to any group, once she learns to keep her mind centered.

Star.png
Haine
Spoiler

His sister if only figuratively, acts like the wanderers older sibling despite them being the same age. It's due to her that he can speak to others at all, and the very reason the lake on floor 4 holds such fond memories.

Astreya
Spoiler

Chipper and excitable, driven and happy. But that is a front, a falsehood, and it takes but one glance from someone who has worn such a thing to see right through it. Deeper beneath that shell, something stirs, either good or bad. Keep an eye on it, else it may cost her life.

Xena ~Reversed~
Spoiler

Trapped in a taste of fear, locking herself in a tower to avoid the possibility of harm. Trust doesn't flow easily, but she seems to desire it all the same. Needs to be given a reason to have faith in others.

Mina ~Reversed~
Spoiler

A spunky woman, troubled past, but it seems to have no barring on her. Although it can sway her mood, it doesn't last. Through a pair of rose colored glasses, true happiness can be found.

Moon.png
Cordelia
Spoiler

Met when hornets were working away at those weaker. They exchanged words and sentiment, it seemed as though the wanderer's ideal were nothing more than an insult. Some day he may ramify his actions, but they may never see the same world.

Sun.png
Yuki
Spoiler

Tenacious and stalwart, each encounter she seems to be trying to prove something. It hardly seems necessary, as the girl is more than strong enough, although she may not know it.

Judgement.png
NIGHT
Spoiler

This one was only met briefly, but in each sighting she carries with her a wake. Those that oppose her seem to meet a quick and decisive end in silence, using everything at her disposal with no regret or remorse.

ChaseR
Spoiler

Reckless and abrasive, easy to anger. Misguided and young, he's a path of his own to walk. Could serve to see the bright side, but there is a heart that cares.

Kirin
Spoiler

The first droplet into a ripple of time, the first lesson and the last. His mother, tried and true, gave him the insight he was lacking. There was no denying it, only seeing what was already there.

The Journey

A remembrance of

An Awkward Situation (Haine) - A loner and self-made info broker through his own intelligence is more than adequate to perform what was required, the information is sold in a way that left very little in the way of social connections. Upon floor 4 with a grumbling stomach, making ends meet through the exchange of peddled info is hard. A blue haired girl offers the nomad some of her own meal, and reluctantly he accepts it and pays her his name. The very thing he refuses to share with most. He takes his leave and makes a mental note to not fall for this again.

The Decrepit Hikikomori (Haine) - Doing his best to avoid making connections, to live here until the game is inevitably cleared. Raidou finds the same small girl, troublesome in the way she lands on him, and instantly removes his ability to flee. Through the course of trying to push her away he ends up falling for her, but not in the sense of a man to a woman but as a brother to a sister. A real moment is shared for the first time in his existence outside of immediate kin, and with that small exchange, he makes a choice.

The Black Star - Fighting a large titan of osmium and yielding a hunk of the same, he visits Seldentar using the last bit of money he had to his name. To forge a sword that would change everything, he would find a way to protect Haine from this world. After the gift, he'd been given he owed her that much.

The Beginning of The Grand Mass Tank {Nikki} - The choice to make a change, to become more than a man living off the scraps. To sell information for a minor amount of currency and just live, he'd change for the better. But the weapon was too heavy, too drastically unruly, and as a reminder of why he was trying on the very ice, he skated with Haine he practiced. Another tank, a frontliner shows interest through happenstance alone finds him. She offers him guidance and by the end of the day, he can finally wield the weapon he had forged.

Forest Adventure! (Raidou, Ruri) - After some time Haine introduces him to her younger half, Ruri. She is a bit more rambunctious and through this nature and her appearance they become fast friends, he looks at her as his own younger sibling. Through trial and error as he works to become better than himself, ever-expanding his abilities as taught by Nikki he works tirelessly to protect Haine and now Ruri.

Secret Medicine of the Forest (Eruda) - In his solo escapades he presses on with the goal to protect those girls with his life, he happens upon a small blonde tank doing her best in a field alone. About to meet an untimely fate the nomad intervenes and saves her life from a boar, and after an attempt to keep his distance they end up working together to finish a quest. In this affair, Raidou finds feelings he's never felt before. Where Haine & Ruri make him protective, the same happens with Eruda but there was something else. A mix of sickness in his stomach.

Guild Membarz? (Raidou, Kiluia, Haine) - Through every attempt to not make a mistake he presses on through the motions. It finally comes to a head when he meets a wise-cracking young man by the name of Kiluia and for the first time, Raidou has a brother. A plan becomes obvious: To use the guild tracking feature and the message chatbox to always be available to help this new family: Firm Anima is formed. Even when he's not there he wants to help them regardless and leaning into the real-world skillset he decides to become an alchemist. Some careful thought to make defensive potions and teleport crystals to where they could always get away.

Don't Underestimate a Nomad <<Challenge Of Olympus: Alchemist>> - After tried and true work against a few failed attempts, he starts to get the hang of crafting. A message appears and offers him a boon against the trouble. Working his way up the mountains at the behest of a Greek god, he bests her in a display of ingenuity and leaves with this boon with a single step forward. But it's here where his world is shattered. His guild menu goes black as everyone he holds dear vanishes from the list. They were gone, and in his haste, he takes to the monument of life via teleport. Their names were not on it. Where had they gone?

A year lost

The Gemini (complete) - Another decision had to be made, he had to find them all. Pressing forward against the tides and his own exhaustion he takes every day one step at a time, as his heart sinks into a field of despair without anyone to guide him. His new purpose was lost, his old one he despised. Through his journey as days turn to months. He faces himself who confirms his suspicions, that something within him had broken when they disappeared. Raidou had not the skills to ask for the aid of others, it was his family that had pushed themselves into his life. Not the other way around, the nomad had no idea how to start.

A conversation with Sandy Blonde - (Natures Treasure) - He continues to hone his craft, exploiting the tools it provides to fuel his travels and help him keep an edge. Raidou is troubled by the ghosts as a memory of who he had lost, specters of the past that haunt his every action. But they served as a reminder of what he strove to achieve. He wanted them back, and he would push himself to no end to succeed.

Piercing Song in a Blanket of White - Struggling to find himself after the Gemini makes him aware that he was failing, despite every attempt not to. Raidou pushes back against his own consuming sorrow and within mere moments where he was at his lowest. He finds a player killer, the flame in orange against the white sleet. Mari was playing a song that reminded him, and for a moment he thought he'd found Haine. But once it is made clear it was not the girl he sought, he broke down. Mari pays him a kindness, matching his sorrow with her own. Through the subtle gift of her song, Raidou begins to find a glimmer of himself he had long forgotten: happiness. She gives him back the good memories that were buried underneath everything the Gemini spat in his face. He tries to repay the player killer for what she has done, but all he manages to do is alienate her further.

<<Natures Quest>> Like minded - Keeping his routine, as he wallowed in his own foolishness and pushed on. He began to see the value of higher floors and his constant drive to find what he had lost had made him strong enough to take it. With the memory bestowed in his mind in regards to a memory he clings to, to keep himself sane a girl in red hair named Ceres happens upon the wanderer. The bird with the coin begins to help him alter the ways he went wrong, teaching him loosely what his mistakes were. Trying his best to understand what she was explaining, while she continues to make advances on him that he cannot understand. Eventually, they separate and with teachings still ripe in his mind, he needed a place to think and let it all out.

«Breaking the Unbreakable» Gaining the will to fight - Finding a large immovable sphere an adequate punching bag, he expresses himself to the dead of night as he sorts his thoughts and feeling through the battering of his own hands. He was struggling with confusion, the sense of mourning that still stuck to him like a smell. Raidou was working against what he assumed was a clock, and trying to make things right with Mari would have to wait.

Séance in a circle of frost - The feeling of guilt proves too great, and while traveling back to floor 4 with the fake objective of gathering more plants that he actually didn't need. He looks for Mari but happens upon Hidden, and holding close the teachings of Ceres he tries to explain himself and his motives to the girl. She was orange and untrusting, the same way the very woman he was trying to make amends with. After berating him and threatening him, Raidou is left not with anger but a sense of where he needed to go. Somewhere along the way, he had lost sight of where his family was headed, where he had just scratched the surface of before losing them for good. The frontlines.

finding strength in

Epic Cycle vol.1: The Fall of Typhon <<DHA: 1>> - Preparing himself for the return, he was convinced he was not adequate anymore. The sheer time he had spent away from the fronts had left him unpracticed and rusted. Through chance alone, while attempting to prepare for the start of his journey again, he happens upon a woman sporting a long glaive: Ariel, an up and coming alchemist with his blonde hair and meticulous demeanor: Dracul, and his assistant maid: Claudia. Breaking his vow of silence and through some of the lion's persistence, a small crack in his shell appears. He recollects the front lines as he knew it, and Ariel assures him of a difference. He's made known that his gear will not hold up, but the sentimental worth of his equipment was too great for him to just dismiss it. Taking down their little target was easy with her strength, and within moments Raidou knew he had more that he needed to glean.

Epic Cycle vol.2: Deadly Cuteness <<DHA: 2>> - There exchange persists through the next leg of the quest, automatically updating to the next in sequence. With each small step, Raidou analyzes Ariel's movements and demeanor. In her, he sees a reflection of what the current raid force would be like, and he was interested in what he'd encounter. They struggle a bit in this second step as they are forced to look for small golden apples that lead to the beast Zylara. The plot thickens even further when a ledger is found, and they must separate to attack it from different angles. The nomad would continue to work the cipher as he pushes himself forward.

Steady Awakening «Let There Be Light» - His first steps in isolation, moving back into the circle of combat alone. His journey leads him to Urbus as he moves to collect a few potion-making materials when an NPC woman approaches him in haste. She pleads the wanderer to help locate her daughter, pulling on strings in a newly awakened and alert heart. Accepting rather blindly, he moves into the darkness and finds the child in question: Tina. Doing his best to keep her safe, burning an excessive amount of time shows the wear on his abilities. It was here it became clear that he had a lot of time to dust off, and through determination alone, he manages to succeed and return the child to her mother.

A project

The more the merrier? (Nature's Treasure) - With daylight left and some time to spare, still exhausted from the encounter prior he moves down a floor. It wouldn't be long before he returned to a guildhall housing but a single person, the others still missing in action. Tired beyond belief he staggers his way to a garden littered with a multitude of other players working away at the same nodes. He wishes for silence, but a small girl: Setsuna seems to have trouble working the node he begins to teach. With his voice overheard, Kasumi finds the cousin she sought and after a heated argument between him and her, a few of the audience begin to take her side. It isn't until Raidou finally finds a trigger of an age-old skill: Fighting Spirit, that his voice becomes heard and after breaking the reality into their heads. A few new members join the ranks of Firm Anima, but he is a bit reluctant to take on new people lest he forgets those he had lost and likewise lose these new faces to the same storm.

A Conversation with my Guild Master...I Hope! (Nature's Treasure Quest) - Out of the blue a message breaches his menu, convinced that it was fake and he was imagining it. Just to silence the fake he sends a reply as a dismissal, assuming it would fade as quickly as before. He gives the real Eruda coordinates and ushers to build up the stock of supplies, not only for himself but now for a group of new guild members that he alone would have to supply. They were a means to an end and if he hoped to keep them safe, he'd need potions and weapons. Ushering up to floor 21 he works away tirelessly as he had now taken to doing on the regular. It was here, that Eruda is returned to him after a single touch proves her solid. One from his past made real, he didn't know how to begin to understand what was happening and he did not care. Immediately as a reflex, he adds her to the guild for fear of losing her, desperate to put a peg in her and keep her always under a watchful eye. 

A plan unfolds in a forest of reflection pt. 1 - Dusting off an old manual, a plan of his own making to push everyone through the rings and bring them up to speed and give them an edge against whatever took his family. He removes his own gauntlet and passes it around to the group as they drink potions he had Simmone bring along for the occasion. He was studied in all of their professions, and they were to face off against one of the game's only scaling enemies. The very same he had faced and almost lost his life to: The Gemini. One by one they share his glove, bringing his aid along for the ride as they best their Gemini's with his aid. After all is said and done they are much stronger for the fight. With the foundation laid, he escorts them all to the dusty old hall now moved to Floor 22 to be closer to the main fight. They share gear and get comfortable as Raidou begins to lay out the plans, and takes inspection data of them all. A puzzle cannot be solved without all the pieces.
