Appearance Flynn is not too shabby for a bloke of twenty eight, course he is not the best looking guy out there either, much as he might argue about it. He does like to keep up appearance, not to say he does not like to get dirty either. He has rather short hair, but not of the buzz cut fashion, in fact it's really kind of wavy, the color of medium brown. He takes pride in his 'laugh lines', or so he calls them. A strong jaw line with a built physique is where the not too shabby comes in. Not a body builder by any means, from head to toe, is what they would call average. He wears what is most comfortable for what he does, its hard to do his work in a fancy suit. So for the most part, he dresses for the occasion.
Personality: What a charmer Flynn is, he is easy to get along with, and don't really complain all that much. His standing on a lot of things is mostly neutral, unless it directly involves himself. Despite that, people trust Flynn. He might be in it for himself, but he does not want anyone to get hurt or die, it is not his style. However if he feels that he is being betrayed he will, if needed, take what is his and bail. That does not happen often, for he chooses his friends wisely, or tries to anyway. That being said, Flynn takes joy in what he does, letting things just unravel around him, trying not to interfere with the flow of things happening.
Flynn also likes to talk, talk, talk, talk, and talk. It's one of his less approved traits. It sometimes catches people off guard. His tongue flapping often turns people away. He likes to use 20 gil words, without even knowing he is doing it. He can be obnoxious like any man out there, what guy does not get obnoxious about a pretty woman entering a room, silent or not? Not having a really good track record with women anyway, Flynn tends to be the guy that the ladies stray from. But he does not let that get him down. Overall Flynn is a pretty normal guy, that does normal guy things.
History: Calling Rabanastre his birth place, Flynn was born to Ethan and Natayla Kingsley, an only child. He grew up playing in the winding streets of the city with every other kid in town. Nothing to tragic in his younger years, but like a lot of children in Rabanastre he too lost his parents to the plague, but he had been old enough to fend for himself. He picked up a lot of things from his father before he passed, like his skills in map making and writing. With a stroke of luck on his side and the roots in a shop his father owned, he managed to make his own way, selling books and maps. For a long time he ran the shop by himself, living in the upper quarters. Easy enough right? Yeah he would say the same thing about it.
As time passed the map maker wanted to move on, especially when the war started. Buying maps at the time was not on everyone's priority list. He eventually sold his lot, and went out into the world. Exploring every nook and cranny of Dalmasca, he even started a book. The Memoirs of Flynn Kingsley. The humor inside is most unbearable. Then he hit the wonderful city of Archadia, note the sarcasm. He had picked up a trail on nethicite. He had befriended a woman that worked within the ranks of the military, as they got closer to finding it, they had been noticed, and he had been betrayed by the time it was all said and done. Telling the Judge it was his idea to break into that lab, he ended up behind bars. Like a lot of freelancers in his position he tried to break out. After two unsuccessful attempts, man that jail was hard to break out of, his crime was deemed 'unimportant'. There was that stroke of luck kicking in with the war going on.
After being dared with his life to come near anything that was considered secured in Archadia again, Flynn left the city in the dust. He traveled to random places, catching hints of treasure along the way. After many successful hunts, and word had spread that the Princess had returned and claimed her rightful place, on the throne, Flynn returned to Rabanastre, and that is where his current residence is. But now that he has gotten a taste of what it is like, his intentions are very clear to him now.
Abilities:
Intelligence : Let's just say Flynn is a very smart cookie. His role in anything is pretty much based on his knowledge about it. He is quick to learn and pick up on things. He lets his brain do all the work for him, sometimes letting it go into overdrive.
Endurance : Like most in the world of Ivalice, he can keep up. Pushing himself to the limit for as long as he can. Falling behind is not something that he likes to do.
Cartography : Drawing maps is an art to Flynn. Rather it is a quick sketch or a full out map of great detail.
