Distinguishing Marks/Tattoos/Features: The scales on his arms are marred and damaged, one would believe he had swallowed whole by a Primal, at this rate, that would sound more true than ever. Training for ones Proving isn’t kind. It’s a grueling ordeal that leaves you empty towards the end. And no one is more unkind than that of a spiteful Auri who wants the gilded titles at the end of their Proving.
Despite the missing patches of scale, there are thick lines that come from old fist fights and ventures gone wrong that left lines deep and wide across his skin, many and most now unseen due to his recently obtained armor. But they’re noticeable and many explainable.
Aside from the obviously noticeable horns atop his head that always seem to gleam with little trinkets and bands, he has a tail to follow suit, always bobbing quietly away.
-- He walks with a permenant limp due to his proving.

Casual Facts: - If Draco is uninterested, his tail is stationary. If he’s curious or interested, it wags mindlessly.
- He wears his mother’s war paint with pride but the dots that come with it are actually tattooed in random places across his body (ie: the ones over his eye, there are some on his wrist and some that sit on his hip)
- His horns are sensitive but his tail is even worse. Please do not pull. However, friends or lovers though permitted to touch him, have no idea how much he loves horn massages.
- He always smells of lavender perfumes. It’s mentally relaxing and helps with his temperament.
- There’s a massive scar down the shin of his left leg from shattering his leg, so he walks with a little limp.
- He’s an introvert despite how he seems in groups. Being an adventurer was relaxing at times. Not a lot of people to worry about. Not many to talk to. During and after ARR, his energy has dropped drastically. He feels more drained and far more exhausted than usual due to the energies of everyone else.

Features.

Scars:
Each are stories embedded within tan flesh, wrinkling his skin with gnarled burns and poorly stitched tears. Some spoke tales of masochistic battles in life or death. Others spoke of heroic actions. Burns came about with stories of trial and error within experimentation whereas those greater than a patch of darkened skin came of legendary tales of dragons fighting to protect their claimed land. His scars are novels daring to be read. Those that are graced at his cheek and mar his skin come from a greeting with death down in a caved in tunnel trying to escape the blighted deep roads.

Markings:
Such as tradition goes, they are always ever so strange. Not all are noticeable, some are quite small. ‘Pon the corner of his sits a marking of décor. Tis acknowledgement of rank among peers of magic within his family-- specific rank, that is, of graduation and specialization. Others hold no traditional value whatsoever, like the blackwork at his throat and chest and the magical runes that decorate his arms.

Voice:
It has a gentle accent, thick Othardian accent, but soft for the way they speak. It's a gentle baritone, low but not gritty. Almost a deep feminine voice with a bit of bass behind it.

PHYSICAL STRENGTH:With a retired Paladin as a father and the daughter of a Warlord for a mother, the training for him to survive, at least, his Proving was intense. It was enough to up his general skill and keep him alive throughout his travels across Eorzea. As time grew, eventually talent built up as he picked up new skills and different blade abilities.

Accomplishments and titles.

Adventurer: In truth this was a title that was obtained for the sake of freedom and challenge. Ignoring the fact that he is running away from his Proving that he has already failed once. It was a title obtained shortly after he left home at seventeen.
Eikon Slayer: He thinks he should have died against Titan because what the fuck.
Champion of Eorzea: In truth, he doesn’t claim it, but when his tribe comes looking for him for his Proving, he will flaunt it.
God Slayer / Slayer of Gods: This is just a title made to flaunt with.
Warrior of Light / Bringer of Light / Bringer of Shadow / Warrior of Darkness:
– He does not want it. He does not like the title, but he knows he can’t stop people from calling him either. It’s unsure of when he’ll finally accept it.
Hydaelyn's Chosen: He wouldn't believe it if it didn't happen...
Khagan of the Azim Steppe: Bestowed to him by the leader of their clan (not his family), it has been the title he's held on to. The one thing that proved he's succeeded after running away.

The Warrior of Light. / Champion of Darkness.

Warring tribes can wear down the mental state of many no matter how built for it they are. The fights drag in the unwilling and the innocent fall somewhere in the middle. It builds most Xaela, but in the same gust of wind, does it destroy them. Everyone is chasing for a prize that ends in the ultimate price. Draco knew that. From an outsiders point of view, the way he saw life was almost… worrisome. Draco is always prepared to die at any given moment. But that’s what life was like for them for far too long. You could die before or during your Proving or you could die fighting for your tribe and everything in-between was preparing for that.
Luckily, despite the negatives, there are always an easier way out. Running an Inn at his family’s side was one of them… to an extent. Nomadic tribes drifted through, soldiers always made themselves known, and Adventurers made it a frequent stop, always regaling he and his siblings with tales of big battles and ridiculous fortune. They excited him to the point that the thought of becoming one sat on the forefront of his mind for weeks to months on end.
At sixteen was the final decision. Draco had come close to completing his Proving, falling behind as the first among final three to fall. To outsiders, the thought of failure means to get up again and push forward, but this was the start of the end. Though death did not come early, it did bring an early end to close, adored relationships. From this, the sense of worthlessness and dread sat harshly on his shoulders, even worse with hearing it ring in his ears from those he thought he loved most.
At the start of the year, as a promise to himself, Draco finally took the steps to, in a sense, rebuild himself. Before the end of the new year’s winter, he had long packed what little he owned and set sail to follow the life of a sellsword.

PRE-REALM REBORN

-Just a few months after his failed proving, it was difficult for Draco to leave with no job or any gil. Instead, he disappeared with a set of nomadic Auri under an assumed named (hence the combination of his surname, stormthicc). He became a Dancer(DNC) under this group. He became close with this nomadic group as they helped him through strength training rehabilitation for a previously shattered leg.
- He begins transitioning at the start of the year before his 17th namesday.
- He studied the art of the Samurai blade during his stay in Hingashi for hobby. He thinks he’s not that good at it, but he enjoys the job.
- He lives in Hingashi with his sensei until his 21st names day when he feels it’s appropriate for him to leave Hingashi and Othard for good. This is a process that happens a few years prior to the invasion of Garlemald.

A REALM REBORN

- He arrives in Eorzea at age 24 with hopes to follow the dream of becoming an adventurer with an old lance, chakrams, and his mentor’s katana. However, he’s sold his original chakrams in order to survive in this new land. (in the au where the physical version of Fray exists, he travels mainly with him until Fray's untimely death).
- As odd as it is, Gridania becomes a home to him. The pay is well. The people are (relatively) kind. The work is constant.
- At 26, he meets Yda and Papalymo and the rest of the scions. Working with the scions is not the job he wanted out of this. Ifrit is slain during this time. It quickly becomes a regret with how many others wish to clash for his attention. The point of becoming an adventurer was exactly that: he wanted to see the star as others did without having others at his back. He wanted to learn the world around him, not be sucked into their problems.
- Praetorium leaves Draco mentally disintegrating. Sleep rarely comes. Nightmares are rampant. He is now 27. Things are now wearing on what was once a kind, collected soul. He knows he was built to be a fighter, but he was never made to be a soldier. This is not a fight made for him. There’s a weird suspicion about the Crystal Braves and the fact that everyone seems to be fine with a child running the show.
- When The Fall comes, he’s 28 going on 29. He has been framed for a murder in a situation that never sat right in his soul. The members of the Scions have gone missing. There’s a massive bounty on his head.

HEAVENSWARD

- At the start of Heavensward, Draco is now 28 going on 29.
STORMBLOOD.

Somewhere in this he’s 30 and fighting CPTSD.
- Fact: Draco hasn’t been home since he left. It took him years even report back home in general. He hasn’t even spoken back to his sensei since he’s made it to Eorzea. The fact that he’s made it to Gyr Abania makes him nervous. There are a lot of things he left unresolved back home and has not brought it upon himself to explain it to the Scions (as if anyone has asked about his life or mental status aside from perhaps Tataru).
