Background
Guillarme spent the first few years of his life living with his mother Amelie in The Brume of Ishgard. Once he was old enough his mother decided it was time for him to meet his noble father Baptistaux and sent him to the Rosaire estate up in The Pillars. It was here where he became the quiet and secluded man he is now, having only his two older brothers Armandier and Leomont along with his cousin Nanette for company.Growing up on the stories his mother told him about his grandfather and a desire to follow in Armadier's footsteps would drive him to become a knight himself. It was around this time Armadier decided to take him on as a training partner and "squire" before leaving to join the Dragonsong war as a dragoon.
As he got older and began to understand why people treated him and his mother differently, Guillarme grew angry and resentful, leading him to lash out and pick fights with both lowborn and highborn alike.All of this came to a head on the day the family had received word that Armandier had been killed in combat with a dragon, leaving him with only his brothers gauntlets to remember him by. After this Guillarme grew to have a death wish and in an effort to mold himself in to something of a replacement for his lost brother he joined the war, much to the chagrin of Leomont. Not long after joining the Temple Knights proper Guillarme and his unit of knights were ambushed by a group of heretics, drawing them into a chaotic bloody conflict. As he was about to finish off one of the men who took part in the ambush, the heretic drank a dose of dragon blood and tore open his side, nearly killing him.This attack would be the first time him and Kira would meet. It was thanks to her magics and actions that he was left with nothing but a scar and bad memories of the attack. After this Guillarme would find a new will to live and become close friends, and even find love with the woman who saved him.After the war he would volunteer to participate in the liberation of Ala Mhigo, giving him his first taste of life outside of Ishgard. This taste had shown him that living in Ishgard had become far to painful, so he decided to leave his home and head for Eorzea. This choice would soon have him be reunited with his cousin Nanette and childhood friend Celadine.He is now in charge of restoration at The Codex and has recently left the Temple Knights for good, choosing instead to become his own man once more by learning the arts of The Dark Knights and Astromancy. He now puts these these newly found skills to use as a Knight Errant.
Hooks
UNITED WE STAND:
Until recently Guillarme spent most of his adult life serving as an Ishgardian Temple Knight through both the Dragonsong War and the Liberation of Ala Mhigo. Other knights would either know him as the young Rosaire bastard who had a temper as fiery as his hair or as the idealistic young man who just wanted to help others and do what's right. Was last seen telling Lord Commander Aymeric that he was leaving the knights to live with his Fiancé and children in Eorzea.WISTFUL STARGAZER:
Guillarme can often be spotted throughout The Shroud and The Goblet, charting and gazing at the stars for his Astrologian studies. Often times he is accompanied Lulana, but there are some days where he can be found gazing alone.DARK KNIGHT RISES:
Guillarme has taken up a greatsword and walks the path of a Dark Knight. Much like the Astrology studies he can be found in The Lavender Beds as well as The Goblet either taking laps and doing general fitness exercizes. But he can also be found practicing with his sword and as of recent times the magical abilities of a Dark Knight.CHECK THE CODEX:
Guillarme is an employee of Thaliak's Codex, a used book store and Antique shop located within The Goblet. Here Guillarme can either be found helping customers on the main floor or giving Lulana and Nanette a hand in the café. Guillarme is also in charge of restoration at the Codex, so if there is a book you wish to see repaired, just ask the owner Celadine about scheduling it and let Guillarme work his magic.
