Soreas Lennart is a player character in Final Fantasy XIV, an MMORPG by SquareEnix. He is played by Cas.

For all intents and purposes, Soreas seems like a unassuming (but very friendly) merchant-turned-leader of a small crafting guild. However, he hides a secret that most people don't know -- and he'd like to keep it that way.

Physical Description

Standing at 3'5", this unusually tall Plainsfolk Lalafell has long silver hair that’s kept in a braid at the nape of his neck. He has bright blue eyes, and he has very fair skin. Soreas is fit, and his diminutive size hides the fact that he’s quite familiar with battle.Soreas keeps several outfits; these days, he's fond of the silken finery from Thavnair, wearing dancer's garb in blue even when fighting physically. He frequently wears a long earring made of scintillant metal on his left ear.

First Impression

Soreas is extremely cheerful and easy-going. There are very few things that will faze him, and he generally takes a laid-back approach when it comes to situations. Though he's now married, he’s still a hopeless flirt, and is especially friendly with the ladies, though he’ll never force himself on anyone.

Before the Calamity

In his youth, Soreas was a crewmember aboard The Ocean's Whore, a ship belonging to a band of pirates who terrorised the Lominsan coast. However, most of the crew mutinied, betraying both their captain as well as Soreas who turned them in to the Yellowjackets in exchange for a place within their ranks.

Tormented by having to watch his former crewmates march to the gallows, Soreas would have met the same fate if not for his captain, who managed to free himself as well as his beleagured lookout. As they were now wanted by the Yellowjackets, the two decided to part ways, Soreas escaping to Kugane and hiding for the next decade as an ijin.

Eventually, he made his way back to Gridania, posing as a trader in order to make some coin. After enlisting as a trader to a crafting guild, he found that he was quite good at this line of work, and he became a member of the guild despite not having any crafting experience.

Soreas was eventually discovered by Limsa Lominsa and arrested for his crimes; he eventually received a conditional pardon in exchange for working for the Maelstrom as required.

After the Calamity

After the Calamity struck and the crafters guild was destroyed, Soreas decided to return to Kugane to clear his mind and to recuperate. During that time, he learned the art of ninjutsu from a shinobi who had fled the unrest in Doma.

Five years later, Soreas returned to Gridania to find that the place looked both different and not at the same time. Gone was the giant tree that had served as the guild's home, and no one knew where the former guildmembers had scattered.

After taking the time to track people down, he managed to find Rathe, a prominent member of the former guild, who had managed to rebuild the guild in all but name at her home. He was warmly welcomed back -- she took out a Magitek Reaper she had salvaged and began firing at him -- and the guild began its rebirth, attracting members old and new into its ranks.
