Kyle Riegler (NecXYZ)

"Rest? What's that? There will be time to rest. In our graves. Now, let's get to work, shall we?"

Kyle Riegler is a State Librarian of Hearthstone Yuldai, aspiring armet and an explorer who can survive no matter the conditions he finds himself under.

Long gone for his family
Since his very first days, Kyle was a nomad coming from the wild deserts of Nahami. Due to the events he experienced in Rathnir, He doesn't remember much from his childhood. Despite that fact, one chain of events is certain - he left the family due to its leadership problems and constant urge to coup against newly chosen leaders. Thanks to his sailing skills he had picked up from his father, he decided to take a boat and sail into the uncharted waters. Although Kyle has always been pragmatic and knew how to handle any situation, his boat and his goods were destroyed by the storm. That's how he found himself lying uncouncious on Tortugan shores.

The uncertain beginnings
After waking up, Kyle wasn't sure where he is and how did he get on that shore. He found his way into Tolomar, finding his first friends along the long journey he wasn't aware of yet. After he had gathered some simple tools and weaponry, he used to sail out a lot in order to find food and materials he could earn a living from. During one of his numerous underwater expeditions, he found out about a long bygone civilisation and its original religion, which he decided to believe in and spread it among any interested people.

Looking for his own haven
Kyle was sure that Tolomar is not the place he felt comfortable staying at. He wanted to get away from any deserts as soon as possible and also thought that he would find more oppoturnities inland. After he had packed all of his goods, he set out on a journey into the unknown, during which he discovered many towns and met plenty of people, who helped him get to his future homeland, where he finally felt safe to settle in. That land was Paloro. After being welcomed by the officials, he asked for a place where he could build his very first house. After getting an abandoned house, he made sure that every detail was changed to his liking, except the basement, which turned out to be be an ancient cave system.

His search for his true haven have finally finished. This was the true beginning of Kyle's adventures he remembers to this very day.

The era of Hearthstone Yuldai
Although Kyle had been on numerous journeys and met many friends along the way, nothing has changed in the matter of his position and social status. When the Uldarashi Empire had collapsed once again, Paloro decided to join the Hearthstone Yuldai, which officials of have been exceptionally kind and generous towards their new members. Kyle was also one of them. After getting to know the new leadership, he decided to use that oppoturnity to finally legalise his town-district he had been building for several months. Even though it still hasn't been opened, this gave Kyle enough motivation to prepare the grand ceremony during which he will try to encourage as many people as it's going to be possible to stay. Apart from that, Kyle has been found very skilled in a matter of swordsmanship and easily became the first Paloran Armet of Hearthstone with high hopes of becoming a Lancer soon. His librarian efforts have also been noticed - Mimek, the Ashannu of the Yuldai, established him a State Librarian of the Hearthstone Yuldai.

Adventures
After setting up his house in Paloro, he knew he can't stay in one place and got to exploring right after he had spent his first night under his own roof. That's also how he met many people he still remember and thanks for their help, no matter their current status. If you wish to learn more about his specific adventures try to get his book or find him in Paloro, presumably sleeping by books.

From a single book to one of the largest libraries
The truth is, Kyle wasn't educated until the moment he got to Paloro. After long and exhausting sessions of underwater and nether mining he didn't have much to do to relax, he also lacked an activity he could contribute to. Buying books turned out to be a solution to both of these problems. By frequently visiting the auctionhouse, he managed to consistently expand his little library. Throughout gathering his first one hundred books, he met TheRussianTanker who is considered to be the best librarian of all times. Thanks to his help he found a way to keep track on the library's growth by registering all of the new books he has been obtaining. Despite the current times, when it's much harder to find a new book without a place like the auctionhouse, he still manages to find new titles he has never heard of. His private/public library consists of more than 380 original titles written for people, by the people. Additionally, he was also established a State Librarian of the Hearthstone Yuldai, getting him access to another library he now also takes care of. That library is The Patria Harria Library located in Pedregal, owning more than 100 books. On top of that, he decided to write his own book titled "The Place We All Call Home", summarising his numerous adventures he had experienced. It was rated A+ based on its quality.

His way to safety and prosperity
As much as Kyle liked to work and travel alone, he knew that he would have to to find someone to help him with his work soon. Fortunately, while crossing one of the savannas of Haven, he stumbled upon a village named Nikon. The community wasn't big enough to be recognised around the region, but it was more than enough to interest Kyle to meet its people. Their leader, Waarya, turned out to be one of the closest if not the closest friend of Kyle. With his help he felt like no goal is too far to achieve and he used that motivation to work til' their last drop of blood together in the nether. With their combination of skills, they earned a ton of money by selling netherite and other precious materials. Unfortunately though, their friendship had to come to an end when Waarya got assasinated after a religious ceremony he had held at the Nikonian church of Waaq.

Sightseeings
Apart from his most important journeys of his life, he also loved to travel without any set destination or a goal. This attitude got him into many interesting places, in which he would always ask the locals for their banner or something else that would remind him of his stay at that place. He did so in: Tolomar, Fornost, NisAkrhall, Lirgal, Voskovy, Nikon, Athazolant, and many, many more.

Physical state
Kyle has always been a slim looking, yet strong and agile male with brown hair and blue eyes, which appearances have changed with time. Although he looks pretty natural, these changes were caused by the environment he had been working in. The eyes, once pale brown, got used to contact with chlorine from seawater to the point it faded even more and his eyesight was so bad he couldn't even see droplets of rain dropping on his skin, but considering he finally stopped with underwater excavations his eyesight has become a bit better and, surprisingly, his eyes changed their colour to blue. Not only that, the damaged hair has also retrieved its medium-strong brown colour.

Attire
Throughout his time spent in Rathnir, Kyle hasn't worn many robes. As his first "proper" outfit he bought a dark blue coat from an Auroran refugee he once met at Tolomar's marketplace. Unfortunately though, his choice caused him trouble, faslely acknowledging people that he comes from the Kingdom of Aurora. As he didn't want to be seen as "one of those Auroran guardians of more of an absolutism than the order" he bleached his coat and got rid of the old belt and accesories to replace them after with their red eye-catching substitutes. Since Paloro joined the Hearthstone Yuldai and he started involve in more official communities he has been wearing a tailored luxury uniform resembling his old robes.

Personality
Kyle can seem like a complicated person at first but his intentions are never hostile towards anyone and he is more than happy to help anyone he meets. He used to be an introvert who wouldn't trust anyone, but that has changed thanks to his sense of keeping safety at all times while meeting people who could rely on at the same time. He sometimes has some nostalgic gleams coming through his mind, repeatedly reminding him of every person he helped or has been helped by. He strongly respects the leadership he finds himself under and never betrays anyone for his own benefits. Although he can be considered pacifist, he has no hesitation to attack someone who decided to deal the first blow to him or his friends.

Skills
Thanks to his nomad origins, Kyle has never had any problems dealing with situations he has never been in before. His surviving skills and equipment he always carries with him saved his life multiple times. Before setting out on a journey, he makes sure that every one of his three shulkers are filled with the materials he finds the most necessary. Additionally, Kyle is an excellent swimmer who can dive into deepest waters without any specialised equipment. His eyesight got used to seawater to the state that he has no problem in navigating underwater. Apart from that, he conceived his very own swordsmanship style based on replacing any defensive techniques with attacks which cause the opponent to step back in order to give him some time and space to use for his advantage.

The Enlightment
As mentioned earlier, during one of his numerous underwater expeditions Kyle found ruins of a sunken town which were had been built of walls covered in inscriptions in incomprehensible language. Even though Kyle couldn't understand anything out of it, he understood it all once he regained his counciousness after losing it due to lack of oxygen. He believes his survival is a miracle sent by the Matchmaker and decided to bring the Matchmaker's will back to life to serve its purpose as a life-brightening idea amongst other, currently existing religions.

Basic Principles
The Matchmaker's will mainly consists of a simple set of 8 requests which mention living in pairs. By doing so he felt like people could live their lives even more fulfilling and passionate, even at darkest times. More detailed explanation can be seen here.
