Vholran Igniseri

Character: Vholran Igniseri
Canon: Tales of Arise
Canon Point: Post Canon

Crime: Tyranny

Background:An oppressive, domineering asshole who thinks he gets to rule the world. Hates everyone. Thinks humans don't deserve rights. He throws his weight around so you think he is a cruel warlord and that his megalomania isn't a trauma response but it's definitely a trauma response.

(MASSIVE TOA SPOILERS: Vholran was born a slave and was isolated and abused most of his life. He has very strong opinions about never letting anyone control him ever again and is ready to make this everyone else's problem.)

Abilities: Extremely acrobatic swordsman who was biohacked into a powerful elementalist that explodes when upset. Basically. He uses mostly water and ice magic.

Plans: Vholran is a character who has done awful things, like brutally rule over a slave nation, in canon but canon also tries to make it clear that he isn't purely evil. At this point in his life, he can't be fully redeemed but maybe he can find somewhat more productive ways to vent his anger. Tales of Arise does not do a deep exploration of his character but his premise is very interesting. I want to explore the character in ways the game maybe was going to do but did not in the version of it we ended up getting.

Vholran will probably not make friends easily but he can attempt to form alliances.

He is a very unpleasant man so please don't have your character provoke him if you don't want to deal with ic consequences. This isn't to say I intend to make him impossible to interact with. Usually, he is content to leave people alone as long as they aren't a threat to him. Since he has a very high opinion of himself people need to prove they are threats. I'm here to play a villain but not one that will be on an unending rampage and making the game annoying to play in.

During the event: Vholran could be convinced to use his magic to help with refrigeration problems or go hunting but he's not going to come to that decision on his own.

(Vholran, it was Vholran I'm spoiling it. By the way if you think this was funny just wait for our next guest)

NOTE: Vholran's character involves things like trauma, mental illness, slavery and body horror and also he is a villain. If you think you might not want to interact with him please use his Opt Out!
