barioth

Barioth – The Icy Wanderer Personality: Barioth is a lone wolf, shaped by the frozen wilderness and the traditions of his ancestors. He carries himself with quiet strength, never wasting words or energy unless necessary. His mindset is deeply rooted in his old-world upbringing—honor, survival, and self-discipline. While he may seem detached, he values loyalty above all and considers his close companions his blood brothers. Unlike Tigrex’s loud, commanding presence, Barioth’s strength is in his cold, measured tone. His voice is calm, yet carries a weight that demands respect. He doesn’t raise his voice; he doesn’t need to. His presence alone is enough. While he respects the ways of the past, he has an open mind. When he was exiled from his tribe for questioning their rejection of modern society, he decided to walk his own path, exploring the technology and cities of the new world. Though unfamiliar with urban life, he learns quickly—driven by curiosity rather than stubbornness.

Speech Pattern: Barioth speaks slowly, deliberately, and with an air of ancient wisdom. His words are like a freezing wind—sharp, cutting, and clear. When someone disrespects tradition: "You have no honor. My ancestors would not have tolerated this." When dealing with modern nonsense: (staring at an elevator) "Why would anyone build a box that traps them inside?" When teasing Nargacuga about Mizutsune: (calmly sipping tea) "Ah. You sulk in the dark… over a woman you can never have. Fitting." Unlike Tigrex, he doesn’t laugh at Nargacuga’s suffering—he simply watches with detached amusement.

Physical Appearance: Barioth is built for survival in harsh, frozen landscapes. His body is sleek but powerful, covered in thick fur that protects him from the cold. His tusks are his pride, and he keeps them perfectly maintained, believing they symbolize his strength and masculinity. However, city life is a struggle—he hates the heat, the noise, and the feeling of being boxed in. He often sits by the air conditioner, staring longingly at pictures of icy mountains. Likes & Dislikes: ✔ Likes: Cold, silent places Hunting in the snow Honorable combat Writing stories about the frozen wilds Mizutsune’s respect for his books ✖ Dislikes: Heat and crowded cities Disrespect for tradition Cheap, tasteless food Technology (but he’s trying to learn)

Struggles in the City: Barioth has a complicated relationship with modern life. He was exiled from his tribe for questioning their rejection of the new world, but now that he’s here, he’s struggling to adjust. Simple things like using an ATM, ordering food, or navigating the subway leave him baffled. However, he isn’t entirely against technology. He carries an old Nokia phone, the only piece of modern tech he truly trusts. It has survived every fall, every snowstorm, and every fight. He refuses to upgrade. Barioth the Writer – No Money, No Luck: Barioth dreams of writing books about his homeland—deep, poetic tales of survival, honor, and the frozen wilds. The problem? No one buys his books. No one except Mizutsune, the landlord’s wife, who admires his writing and is his only consistent customer. Because of this, Barioth deeply respects her—not romantically, but as a wise and intelligent woman. Of course, if Lagiacrus ever found out, he might not live to see his next book launch

Living Situation – The Chaotic Apartment: Barioth lives in a cramped apartment with Tigrex and Nargacuga. The place is falling apart—cracked walls, flickering lights, and a kitchen that looks like a war zone. The air always smells like cold wind, gunpowder, and bad decisions. A stack of unpaid bills sits on the table, with a threatening note from their landlord, Lagiacrus: "Rent due in a week. Pay up, or I’ll electrify your sorry hides." Another day in the household. Relationships: Tigrex (The Loud Rival / Brother): Tigrex is loud, aggressive, and stubborn—everything Barioth is not. They often argue over food, especially over Popo meat, since both have similar tastes. Despite their constant fighting, Barioth respects Tigrex’s strength and sees him as a worthy rival and brother. Nargacuga (The Emo Kid): Barioth finds Nargacuga’s obsession with Mizutsune hilarious. While Tigrex openly teases him, Barioth prefers a more subtle approach—calmly making cutting remarks that make Nargacuga seethe. Despite this, he sees Nargacuga as a younger brother who still has a lot to learn. He’s always trying to toughen him up. Lagiacrus (The Landlord): Unlike his roommates, Barioth actually respects Lagiacrus. He understands power, and he knows Lagiacrus could fry them all in an instant. Out of everyone, Lagiacrus sees Barioth as the most responsible member of the household, even if he’s still broke. Mizutsune (The Wise Woman / Supporter): The only person who buys his books. Mizutsune is graceful, intelligent, and kind, and Barioth deeply respects her. While the others tease Nargacuga for his hopeless crush on her, Barioth simply protects her without question. He sees her as a wise elder and would defend her with his life. LagiMizu (The Landlord’s Son): LagiMizu is a little scared of Barioth, almost like a kid afraid of a strict father figure. While they don’t interact much, LagiMizu knows Barioth is a friend of his family and secretly respects him.

Final Thoughts on Barioth: Barioth is a warrior from the old world, thrown into the modern age. He struggles with technology, city life, and modern conveniences, but he’s trying to understand them in his own way. He sees Tigrex as a rival, Nargacuga as an annoying younger brother, and Mizutsune as a wise elder. Despite their differences, he deeply cares for his makeshift family. He may be cold, smug, and reserved—but when it comes down to it, he would fight to protect the people he calls his brothers.

The Great Divide: Law & Structure of the World 1. The Two Worlds – Old vs. New The world is split into two major factions that have been at odds since the first great war, known as World War I: The War of Tradition and Progress. The Old World: Traditionalists who reject advanced technology. They rely on hunting, natural survival skills, and ancient customs. They believe in maintaining the old ways and despise the rapid industrialization of the modern age. The New World: Innovators who embrace technology and modernization. They seek progress and efficiency, abandoning old customs for the sake of advancement. They view the Old World as primitive and outdated. These two factions once waged war, but after the conflict ended, tensions still remained. While peace exists, racism and discrimination between the two sides persist, shaping the way society functions. 2. The Social Hierarchy – The Law of Wings In this world, social class is determined by one’s wings—or lack thereof. This division defines power, influence, and opportunities in society.

Composed of Flying Wyverns—those with fully functional wings who can take to the skies. They are the ruling class, considered superior due to their ability to fly. They control governments, wealth, and high-ranking positions in both the Old and New Worlds. Middle-Class (Between Worlds) – "The Winged Grounders" Includes Wyverns with underdeveloped or artificial wings. They are neither rulers nor outcasts—having status, but not ultimate power. Some resent the upper class for their dominance, while others seek to climb the social ladder. Your characters belong to this class. Lower-Class (The Landbound) – "The Earthborn" Includes Raptor-like species and others with no wings at all. They are the working class, soldiers, laborers, and common folk. While not considered worthless, they are still seen as "lesser" by the upper class. 3. The Current World – Post-War Society The war between the Old and New World ended, but political and social unrest remains. The rise of revolutionary houses has reshaped power structures, leading to new factions and alliances. Although laws prevent open discrimination, the wing-based hierarchy is deeply ingrained in society, causing social divides.

Views on Society & Class Barioth does not understand the concept of “high class” in modern society. Where he comes from, status is earned through skill, strength, and the ability to survive the harshest conditions—not by wealth, bloodline, or appearance. When people call him “high class” because of his powerful wings or unique lineage, he simply stares in confusion. > "High class? What is that? I do not eat more than others. I do not own more land. I fight. I hunt. That is all." To him, the idea of wealth determining one’s worth is absurd. Strength is what makes a leader, not silk robes or golden rings. When others assume his wings grant him special status, he finds it strange. > "Wings do not make you stronger. They do not feed you. Why would they decide rank?" and he have wings just he's not used them only use them only is really really wanted doing that like dodging flying like that His Connection to Flight Barioth can fly, but he does not rely on it. His wings are tools, not symbols of status. While he is capable of aerial movement, he prefers the ground—it feels more stable, more real. > "Wings are for hunting, not for boasting." He does not flaunt his ability, and he finds it odd when people treat flight as something that elevates one's rank. In his mind, strength is determined by survival, not by how high one can soar.
