Vauthry [ Innocence ]

Lightwarden.

Following Minfilia Warde's preventing Norvrandt from being consumed in the Flood of Light, Emet-Selch enacted a contingency plan for the Eighth Umbral Calamity to occur. He appeared before the mayor of Eulmore, taking advantage of the man's desire to keep his position indefinitely by talking him into having his unborn son be infused with the essence of a Lightwarden. Due to his innate ability to render sin eaters docile, Vauthry was thus instilled with a god complex by his father as he eventually succeeded him as the ruler of Eulmore. Aided by a sinister pair of female Jongleurs, Vauthry used his status to feed the citizens meol leftovers secretly made from sin eater flesh to extend his ability.

Vauthry encountered the Warrior of Light and Alphinaud Leveilleur while punishing Kai-Shirr for entering Eulmore under false pretenses. The two got the Mystel out the city, and Vauthry became enraged after Alphinaud publicly insulted him. When Vauthry learned the Warrior and other Scions of the Seventh Dawn members were killing the other Lightwardens, he sent his general, Ran'jit, to hunt them down. When the Crystarium's guards began interfering with Ran'jit's hunt, Vauthry summoned the Crystal Exarch to Eulmore to demand an explanation.

The Exarch argued that defeating the Lightwardens represented the world's only hope of survival. Vauthry disagreed, telling the Exarch that the world was beyond redemption even if the Lightwardens were slain, and that the people of the First required the hand of a God to shepherd them beyond the edge. After the Exarch refused to stop supporting the Scions, Vauthry boasted to have already ordered a full-scale assault on the Crystarium with the sin eaters, and the Exarch quickly left the meeting.

The ensuing war between Eulmore and the Crystarium resulted in heavy causalities for both sides, including four of the Lightwardens and many of the Crystarium's guard.

History
Following Minfilia Warde's preventing Norvrandt from being consumed in the Flood of Light, Emet-Selch enacted a contingency plan for the Eighth Umbral Calamity to occur. He appeared before the mayor of Eulmore, taking advantage of the man's desire to keep his position indefinitely by talking him into having his unborn son be infused with the essence of a Lightwarden. Due to his innate ability to render sin eaters docile, Vauthry was thus instilled with a god complex by his father as he eventually succeeded him as the ruler of Eulmore.

The Warrior of Light and the Scions enlisted the aid of their First Shard friends to control a Talos to reach Vauthry while fighting through his sin eater army. During the final battle, Vauthry threw a temper tantrum that awakened his full power and he transformed into the Lightwarden Innocence. Vauthry unleashed his full power, but the Warrior of Light cast him down regardless. As the Scions stood over him, the dying Vauthry expressed sadness and disbelief, unable to understand why they looked down upon him with such pity or how everything his father taught him could be wrong, before dissolving into light.

Upon transforming fully into Innocence, his appearance drastically changes into a slim beautiful figure adorned in purple robes, longer flowing hair and a pair of large golden, metallic wings.

Vauthry is extremely arrogant and self righteous. He sees his authority as divinely ordained and those who oppose him as villains. He lacks empathy and throws temper tantrums when he does not get his way. Vauthry's outlook and god complex stem from his upbringing: being convinced that he is a sainted bridge between man and sin eater, while unable to do any wrong despite his amoral actions. He has a misanthropic view of his subjects, the world, and the people under the domain, as he believes they would inevitably destroy themselves and cause only suffering without his despotic rule in what he deems as a hopelessly broken land, and that his power to control the sin eaters grants him the right to act as he pleases.

Vauthry is the only Lightwarden capable of decisive thought and strategy, unlike the other Lightwardens encountered who only possess the most basic of instinct. This trait makes him the most powerful Lightwarden, and by extension sin eater, being able to coordinate them to his will and use them to justify his sense of supremacy.
