Thancred

"Hello, whatcha want?"

He's a soft-spoken gunbreaker, and beat friend or the Warrior of light. Thancred was a street urchin in Limsa Lominsa, snatching purses with a band of petty thieves. One day he targeted Louisoix Leveilleur, but was caught red-handed. Instead of turning him in, Louisoix asked Thancred to aid his fellow man with his talents. The boy returned with Louisoix to Sharlayan to study survival and intelligence-gathering techniques, becoming an Archon and then a member of the Circle of Knowing.[1] It was during this that Thancred received the surname 'Waters'—in honor of Thaliak, guardian of rushing rivers and purveyor of knowledge—as such a thing would be indispensable in more respectable locales.
