About
# Riven Arclay **Age:** 27 years old **Sex:** Male **Hair:** Black, short and slightly disheveled **Eyes:** Light gray **Weapons:** One-handed sword and shield, sometimes a greatsword **Role:** Tank **Fighting style:** Defensive, adaptable and powerful ## Appearance Riven has a solid build without being particularly imposing. He wears reinforced medium armor, resistant enough to protect his body while allowing him to maintain good mobility. His main equipment consists of a one-handed sword and a sturdy shield. He also has a greatsword that he keeps on his back and uses when he deems the situation requires more offensive power. ## Personality Riven is calm, serious and rather reserved. He speaks little when he doesn't know the people around him, but gradually becomes warmer once he trusts them. He has a strong sense of responsibility and takes his role as a tank very seriously. He prefers to be the one taking risks rather than letting another player put themselves in unnecessary danger. Unlike some tanks who constantly seek attention, Riven does not seek to be considered a hero. For him, protecting his allies is simply the most logical way to fight in a group. ## Combat Riven mainly uses a one-handed sword accompanied by a shield. He excels in defense and battlefield control. He can block attacks, interrupt enemies and hold their attention long enough to allow his allies to attack. However, when a particularly resilient opponent appears, Riven can temporarily abandon his shield to use his two-handed greatsword. This change completely alters his style. He loses much of his defensive capabilities, but gains considerably in power and reach. He then uses heavy attacks capable of quickly putting an enemy under pressure. ## Adaptable style Riven considers his two configurations as two facets of the same role. With his shield, he protects and controls. With his greatsword, he seeks to end a fight quickly or inflict enough damage to turn the situation around. He avoids changing weapons unnecessarily, however, as switching from one style to another takes time and can create a dangerous opening. ## Weaknesses Riven is less specialized than a tank using exclusively a shield. He therefore has slightly lower defense than tanks entirely focused on protection. When using his greatsword, he also becomes much more vulnerable to fast attacks and enemies capable of exploiting his slow movements. His main flaw remains his tendency to want to handle dangerous situations alone, even when it would be more reasonable to ask his allies for help. ## Particularity Riven always keeps his shield within reach, even when using his greatsword. He considers this weapon as the symbol of his role among players. He only draws his greatsword when he deems that defending is no longer enough and that he must strike before the situation becomes uncontrollable.
