History
Childhood: Childhood? What childhood? Too busy being bred to be an emperor. Actually, he's still a child. Most of his childhood was spent witnessing the atrocities his empire committed and learning politics inside and out. One can't make many friends with that kind of life.
Educational background: Well-educated. But he's definitely more book smart than he is street smart. That's not to say he can't survive on his own, just that most of what he knows comes from books.
Religious background: Probably the same as all the other Humes. Definitely not the Viera though. Silly Wood.
Political background: ...Empire-y. No, really. As the fourth son of Emperor Gramis and eventual emperor himself, he knows more about politics than any other twelve-year-old.

Methods of coping: lol what coping? BSOD, here Larsa comes. In all serious, Larsa has some pretty fail coping methods.

Physical weaknesses: ALL THE THINGS. He's tiny and young. Probably gets worn out easily. And despite all the work he must get done as emperor, he's too young to be able to stay up late or pull all nighters. Cue lots of falling asleep at his desk.
Mental strengths: Xanatos Speed Chess

Body and Appearance
1. Describe the character's height and build. Is he heavyset, thin, short, rangy?
He's short and slender with the girliest of hair. Really, he's quite petite. Considering he gets little physical action (OF THE SWORD FIGHTING KIND), he doesn't have time to be ripped like Vayne. Also, there's a lack of puberty. At least I think it's a lack of puberty.

2. How old is he?
Twelve.

3. Describe his posture. Does he carry himself well or does he slouch?
He has the most proper posture. He has to have one if he's going to be an emperor! So very elegant. Straight back. He seriously walks like a girl though....

4. How is his health? Is he fit or out of shape? Any illnesses or conditions? Any physical disabilities?
He's as fit as a twelve-year-old can be. Even though his tunic makes him look chubby. It's the belt and the way his shirt overflows over it. So yes, he's healthy! Just needs to stop wearing baggy clothes.

5. How does he move? Is he clumsy, graceful, tense, fluid?
Graceful and fluid. Though a slightly clumsy in battle. He thinks he's a fencer.

6. How attractive is this character physically? How does he perceive himself in the mirror?
He is twelve. So at the most, he's cute. He has a few more years to go before he crosses into 'handsome' territory. He probably wants to look more like Vayne. Though knowing him, he'll just be the bishounen of the Solidor family.

7. Describe his complexion. Dark, light, clear, scarred?
Clear and pale! All ~perfect~ Becaue he's 12.

8. Describe his hair: color, texture, style.
Dark hair and quite long. His bangs are swooped over to the left. It's a little wavy, but not much. He needs to get a hair cut so people stop mistaking him for a girl.

9. What color are his eyes?
A light gray.

10. Does the character have any other noteworthy features?
THEM EYEBROWS. Also his ears are pierced. Red earring studs!

11. What are his chief tension centers?
His eyebrows. Forever. They just. THEY SHOW HIS ANGER OR FRUSTRATION. Also his hands.

12. What is the character's wardrobe like? Casual, dressy, utilitarian? Bright colors, pastels, neutrals? Is it varied, or does he have six of the same suit?
It is surprisingly colorful. Considering he is wearing the exact same outfit a year later.................. he may just wear replicas the same outfit eeeevery day.

13. Do his clothes fit well? Does he seem comfortable in them?
Mostly. His shirt is a little baggy though.

14. Does he dress the same on the job as he does in his free time? If not, what are the differences?
He does not know how to change his clothes. Unless they are like.... twenty of the same outfit.

15. You knew it was coming: Boxers, briefs or commando?
Briefs.

Speech
1. What does this character's voice sound like? High-pitched, deep, hoarse?
It is a cross between a girly voice and the voice of a young boy. Really, I can't decide if it sounds like a girl voices him or a boy. Maybe it's the accent. He kind of sounds like he's seventeen instead of twelve though... so maybe he did go through puberty.

2. How does he normally speak? Loud, soft, fast, evenly? Does he talk easily, or does he hesitate?
He talks easily and he can carry a conversation well. But when it comes time to come up with impromptu dialogue, he's kind of fail. Like deciding Lamont is a good cover name. "Oh, I, uh, I'm Lamont!" Yeah, Larsa. We all believe that's your real name.

3. Does the character have a distinct accent or dialect? Any individual quirks of pronunciation? Any, like, you know, verbal tics?
He speaks the Queen's English. In Japanese, he switches from boku to watashi when dealing with Vayne to distance himself and to show he can stand on his own near the end of the game.

4. What language/s does he speak, and with how much fluency?
Just the Hume language. Which... pretty much everyone speaks. Even non-Humes.

5. Does he switch languages or dialects in certain situations?
See above. Switching to a more formal speech pattern when dealing with Vayne later on.

6. Is he a good impromptu speaker, or does he have to think about his words?
Under normal circumstances, he's a great conversationalist. He's a terrible liar though. Stumbling all over his words. Because that makes us want to believe him, right?!

7. Is he eloquent or inarticulate? Under what circumstances might this change?
Quite eloquent!

Mental and Emotional
1. How intelligent is this character? Is he book-smart or street-smart?
Pretty damn smart. He knows too much about politics for an average twelve-year-old. He's not very street smart, though. He needs to work on that. A lot.

2. Does he think on his feet, or does he need time to deliberate?
He can think on his feet! Xanatos speed chess, anyone?

3. Describe the character's thought process. Is he more logical, or more intuitive? Idealistic or practical?
Idealistic and intuitive. Not that he's illogical, though. He just. Has visions and makes 'em work!

4. What kind of education has the character had?
A good one, surely. Though it most likely wasn't in a formal school of any kind. Allll the tutors.

5. What are his areas of expertise? What, if anything, is he interested in learning more about?
He's good at making potions. He would be Snape's favorite student... provided Larsa was in Slytherin. He has a thirst for knowledge, so... wait that's Ravenclaw. Well, he's ambitious, too.

6. Is he an introvert or an extrovert?
Introvert. Though he's a good pretender of being extraverted.

7. Describe the character's temperament. Is he even-tempered or does he have mood swings? Cheerful or melancholy? Laid-back or driven?
He's so very even-tempered. He's mostly cheerful. When he gets angry, it does show, though. When he's sad, he kind of shuts down for a while. Completely.

8. How does he respond to new people or situations? Is he suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic?
Relaxed and enthusiastic! He likes meeting new people.

9. Is he more likely to act, or to react?
Depends on the situation. Mostly react unless it's necessary for him to be on top of things. Then he will do ALL THE ACTING and no one can stop him.

10. Which is his default: fight or flight?
He'd LIKE to practice flight, but he will reluctantly fight anyway.

11. Describe the character's sense of humor. Does he appreciate jokes? Puns? Gallows humor? Bathroom humor? Pranks?
He likes jokes! But he prefers more childish stories and jokes. Things appropriate for children his age.

12. Does the character have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how does he deal with them?
...N-No....

13. What moments in this character's life have defined him as a person?
WHEN ALL THE PEOPLE DIED. His two eldest brothers, then his father, then the brother closest to his age. Yeah, all the bloodshed. He's seen it. Though his own hands aren't bloodied. For now. Hopefully they remain unstained.

14. What does he fear?
People he cares about dying.

15. What are his hopes or aspirations?
For there to be everlasting peace!

For people who don't know him, that he's royalty. He doesn't want to be treated any differently than anyone else.

Relationships
1. Describe this character's relationship with his parents.
Distant. Because lol son of the Emperor. So he considers other adults to be his parental figures, like Drace and Gabranth. Who knows about his mother or if he shares that mother with any of his siblings. Or maybe Gramis laid an egg.

2. Does the character have any siblings? What is/was their relationship like?
Three older brothers. He probably loved all three, but loved Vayne the most. 'cause, you know, you can't love your bothers all that much when you're two and they die.

3. Are there other blood relatives to whom he is close? Are there ones he can't stand?
No. Because Vayne killed them all before dying himself 8|

Drace, Gabranth... probably Vaan and Penelo... and of course Basch.

5. Who is/was the character's best friend? How did they meet?
What friends? Actually, if it isn't Gabranth, it's probably Penelo and then Vaan or Basch.

6. Does he have other close friends?
No. He is a lonely, lonely boy.

7. Does he make friends easily, or does he have trouble getting along with people?
He's friendly! Just. Can't see people often. Darn duties.

8. Which does he consider more important: family or friends?
....Friends = family?! It doesn't matter because family is dead. So he doesn't even have to make that choice.

9. Is the character single, married, divorced, widowed? Has he been married more than once?
HE'S TWELVE.

10. Is he currently in a romantic relationship with someone other than a spouse?
NO.

11. Who was his first crush? Who is his latest?
UH. NOBODY. Though apparently everyone says it's Balthier. They are wrong. If it's going to be anyone, it would be Penelo. MAYBE.

12. What does he look for in a romantic partner?
He's not even looking for one. But if he were, they would have to be a kind person.

13. Does the character have children? Grandchildren? If yes, how does he relate to them? If no, does he want any?
....god I hope not. He will probably have kids someday, though. Emperor and all. Gotta continue House Solidor's lineage. But the way things are going, House Solidor seriously ends with Larsa.

14. Does he have any rivals or enemies?
Nope. HE IS LOVED. Except for everyone who hates Archadia, oops.

15. What is the character's sexual orientation? Where does he fall on the Kinsey scale?
Straaaaaaaaaight. 0. Though I imagine if prodded enough he could be a 1. But that would take some intense prodding.

Sex is like the last thing on his mind, thank you.
