(Warning in advance, I’m sick and currently have the mental power of the common earthworm lol) Fraissaleli is a rather serious, no nonsense Rito warrior- whomst devoted their life to protecting their people. Rumours has it that they once defeated a gleeok with nothing but their spear, but upon asking them, they refuse to confirm whether or not this ever happened. Unlike most Rito, they prefer not to utilize bows, and ranged combat in general… instead relying more on their trusty spear, and quick, unpredictable aerial swoops. They exclusively wear light armours made of leathers and furs, so that they can still fly without being weighed down. Like quite a few avian species on earth, they will actually change gender and appearance based on how many men and women they are surrounded by, to try to keep the ratio more equal! The form in the artwork is their male form, when female their feathers tend to be more of a pale brown tone, with a white and gray flecked underbelly (see image inside for a comparison). However their personality and whatnot, of course, stays the same. (And will use the pronouns of whichever they currently are) Simple Personality: (+) Alert, appreciative, honest, honourable, protective. (=) Introverted, studious, stubborn. (-) Impulsive, impatient, defensive, perfectionist. Detailed: Fraissaaleli puts great personal importance into their role, neglecting their enjoyment and free-time to better hone their skills… Resulting in them quite literally, frequently collapsing from pure exhaustion after a mission. However, despite them not exactly being the most… talkative of Rito, if they feel that their life has become indebted to that of another (ex: someone saved their life during a fight), they will do anything to keep that individual safe- until that individual verbally releases them from said debt. They have trouble sitting still, and even during times of peace will purposely excuse themself so that they can go patrol… Despite their being no need to do so.
They’re based on the King-of-Saxony bird of paradise :D
