FULL APPEARANCE:
Noctis stands at at 5' 9", a below-average height. Though his build is lithe, he's not totally devoid of musculature. Noctis has stunning dark blue eyes, a trait his mother passed to him. Seeing as his black hair is as stubborn as a herdbeast, it requires attention daily, unless Noctis should walk out wearing a wicked bedhead. For some unknown reason, his facial expression seems to be held in a constant frown, except for his close friends. For his wardrobe, Noctis pretty much dresses in what's set out for him. Usually wearing his garments in black, said clothes often consist of simple pants, a shirt, and a jacket to go on top, alongside his usual boots.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
A dominant first trait to be discovered about Noctis is his laziness. If he had things his way, he wouldn't even leave his room. If possible, Noctis would sleep all day, every day. If vegetables make an appearance in his meals, he vehemently refuses to eat them, sticking to what he likes: sweets. Provide Noctis a pastry and he'll be much more willing to listen to a tune being fifed. As sweets aren't common, Noct treasures what he does get. Noctis is stubborn as well. If he doesn't want to do something, he'll dig in his heels and refuse to budge.
But Noctis isn't all bad; he understands he has some duties as a Holder's son and so engages in what duties are placed before him, though his mandatory grumbles and bitter complaints are unavoidable. Other than sweet things, he has a weak spot in fishing. Ever since he was a child, Noctis has loved fishing, insisting to go to nearby rivers and watch fishers at work; he'd like to try fishing himself, someday.
It's not clear, but Noctis has an...odd affection for others. While he wants to do his best to help, he doesn't want to lead at all, despite receiving tutoring to do so from his background. As such, he's rather closed off; untouchable except by those he loves and trusts. Distant and aloof, Noctis is comparable to a cat; small, surly, grumpy, fond of sleeping. While he could be what a world in trouble needs, given time and a hell of a lot of patience to grow into a true leader, he has no wish to lead; it would take time and a considerable amount of effort to make Noctis ready for a position of leadership, as he's simply not suited for such a role and has no real interest.

BIRTHPLACE: Minor High Reaches Hold
HISTORY: TW: death/loss
Noctis was born to Regis and Aulea, beloved Holders of a minor High Reaches-beholden Hold. Sadly, Noctis didn't get to know his mother personally, as she died birthing him. Regis didn't hold it against his son, raising him as well as he could alongside his duties as Holder and grooming his older son Ranna to lead in his place. As a result, young Noctis grew up surrounded by a variety of caregivers, while his father watched him from afar. Being second-born to his father's first wife, Noctis wasn't truly brought up to take command in his father's stead one day. That was Ranna's job by right. Still, in case of a tragedy, Regis provided tutoring to Noctis, though his younger son was allowed to...slack off more than Ranna. While Ranna got more focus and more work to do to learn how to lead a Hold, Noctis had solitude; more time to sleep.
In being granted such freedoms, he made a close friend, though one from quite an unexpected quarter. While kept seeing a blonde kid hanging around some drudges, but if Noctis approached, he would take off. Noctis didn't push further in his curiosity, but he continued to see that same boy, often catching him watching from behind corners and trees. It took Turns for that blonde to work up enough courage to approach, introducing himself as Prompto. These two became fast friends and Prompto has clung to him tight ever since. But it was quite recently that Noctis was approached by a High Reaches rider for Candidacy. Surprised and uncertain, Noctis turned to his loved ones for advice and guidance. Though he knew Prompto's reaction before he asked it (loud jubilant cheering), his father looked on his younger son proudly and told him to go; that his home would still be standing if he ever wished to return.
So Noctis packed his things and headed for High Reaches Weyr to be a Candidate.
