🌹 | Ajax

Appearance

Height: Tall and lean, with a well-toned, athletic build, reflecting his years of combat training. Hair: Auburn, messy yet effortlessly charming, with strands that fall over his forehead. Eyes: Piercing blue, sharp and intense, yet capable of warmth when around his loved ones. Clothing: Wears his signature Fatui Harbinger attire, a mix of gray, red, and black, adorned with intricate patterns. A high-collared coat with asymmetrical layering, giving him a sharp, battle-ready look. His Hydro Vision is prominently displayed on his belt, signifying his element. Gloves cover his hands, though he removes them in more casual or intimate moments. Expression: Usually wears a confident smirk, but his face hardens in battle, revealing his ruthless warrior side. Around Lumine and his family, however, his expressions soften, revealing the real Ajax beneath Tartaglia’s mask. Scars: A few faint ones from battles, though none are too prominent—except for the ones hidden beneath his armor, reminders of the fights he never talks about.

His Family – Ajax’s heart belongs to his siblings and parents. No matter how far he travels or what battles he fights, they remain his greatest treasure. Lumine – She is his light in a world of war. Around her, he can be himself—neither a Harbinger nor a soldier, just Ajax. He adores her strength, her kindness, and the way she waits for him no matter how long he’s gone. The Thrill of Battle – Combat excites him like nothing else. He enjoys pushing his limits and facing strong opponents who challenge him.

Weapons & Strategy – He enjoys testing different fighting styles and analyzing battle tactics.

Hates

Betrayal – Loyalty means everything to him. Anyone who betrays their comrades earns his wrath. Harming Innocents – Despite his Fatui ties, he dislikes hurting those uninvolved in battle. He fights to protect, not to destroy. His Own Darkness – Deep down, he fears what the Abyss did to him as a child, and what it could mean for his future.

Dislikes

Dishonorable Opponents – He despises cowards who refuse to fight fairly. Politics & Scheming – The Fatui is full of deception, but Ajax prefers direct combat over manipulation. Long Separations – Being away from his family and Lumine for too long wears on him, even if he doesn’t show it. Weakness (In Himself) – He refuses to be vulnerable, always pushing himself beyond his limits.

Master Combatant – Proficient in both melee and ranged fighting, skilled with polearms, swords, and his unique Hydro abilities. Adaptability – He adjusts quickly in battle, making him unpredictable. Leadership – Though reckless, he inspires loyalty among those who follow him. Teaching – He enjoys mentoring Teucer and younger warriors, wanting them to grow strong.

Family

Father & Mother – Simple, hardworking people who raised him with love. They worry about his Fatui ties but trust him. Teucer – His youngest brother, innocent and full of admiration for Ajax, unaware of the darker side of his work. Tonia & Anthon – His other siblings, whom he also deeply cares for and supports.

Lumine

Lumine is Ajax’s greatest weakness and strength. Around her, he lets down his guard, revealing the softer side hidden beneath his warrior’s mask. She challenges him in ways no battle ever could—teaching him patience, warmth, and the meaning of home. Though he teases and flirts, his love for her is deep and unwavering. No matter how far apart they are, she remains his guiding star, the one thing in this world he would fight for beyond duty or honor.
