History
▆ Early life:
Jules was bornt within The First, a different reality that is different from our world, The Source. He lived for a good remainder of his life within a small mining town called Twine, having a loving mother and a hard working father. Jules' father is a employee of the Dadaelus Stoneworks, overseeing Talos production as well joining the mining effort. Young Jules would often join his father around, his curiosity never ceasing. Eventually Jules picked up one of the company trades, working alongside his father during his teenage years.
However, right before his sixteenth birthday, a huge flash of light began to surround the desert area, swallowing everything in its wake. With humanity's extinction imminent, Jules' father whispered into Jules' ear the following words: "Live free, summer's haze."
A spark of golden and azure light surrounded the young boy, navigating him away from his family. It was a tearful farewell he was not prepared for. Jules was sent away to a different world, watching as the light engulfed the place he once called home, the people he called family.
▆ Landing in Eorzea:
Jules found himself in a world he wasn't familiar with. It was a frigate, cold wasteland around him. Walking aimlessly within the unforgiving blizzard, Jules collasped in front of what appears to be a kingdom's gates. On the verge of death, an single Elezen loomed over the boy, carrying him to safety within the kingdom's borders.
RP Hooks & Others
Hooks
▆ "Our battle will be legendary!" - Challenge Jules to a friendly competition of sorts. 100% of the time will always take up your challenge. Regardless who wins, Jules will appreciate your company.
▆ Allagans, Machina, Everywhere - Talking about his profession as a machinist or a crafter will always make him go on a tangent, especially when encouraged by it. He is fond of all things Allagan. Taking him on a visit to Azys Lla or allowing him to talk about his time with Syrcus Tower expeditionary team always gets him excited.
▆ Heterochromia - Talking about his differently colored eyes might make him uncomfortable. Encouraged if you're looking to get a rise out of the man.
▆ Warfare and Science - Jules has plenty to say about using technology in wars. He absolutely despises the Empire for this exact reason. He believes science can be used for good in the world. Using his knowledge from the First, he wants to help the people of Eorzea from the tyranny of the Garlean Empire.
Trivia
▆ Jules is too used to sleeping outside. He isn't comfortable sleeping in warm beds much.
▆ He can be quite a glutton, claiming to have two stomachs for just about everything. Apparently this doesn't hinder his abilities much, as he can just "work off the meal" later.
▆ If it wasn't obvious by now, his favorite color is 'Sunset Orange'.
