No story told by the young viera is ever a boring tale. Raiza has a knack for storytelling, giving a personal flair to every tale he tells, his chipper attitude and kind voice grabbing and holding the attention of whoever is willing to listen. He finds joy in the reactions he gets, his stories bringing smiles on faces that have previously shown nothing of the sort. As he travels, his tales spread across Eorzea and people talk about the young man with the sunset colored eyes and a nicked ear. Yet somehow, Raiza never tells his own story, dodging questions about himself or spinning a different tale everytime someone asks about the ear - the man himself remains a mystery.

Despite how incredibly kind and welcoming he is to friend and stranger alike, asking Raiza about his past usually brings a melancholic, if not a downright sad smile to his face. He is quick to dodge questions about himself with a witty joke or by segwaying into another story of his. As a bard, he enjoys singing and finds great joy in people joining him in doing so, but he also likes to write and draw.

Although he very clearly knows some magic and has likely been trained in the art of it at some point, Raiza tends to rely on physical strengths more than any magical aptitude. Despite how secretive he is, at the end of the day Raiza is a wonderful friend and a willing ear that listens to anyone.

• Raiza is left handed - he wears an artist glove over his left hand (only his pinky and ring fingers are covered).
• The cartilage in his ears is very weak. Typically his ears droop just a tiny bit when in a relaxed state and when he is focused/excited and his ears spring up, they usually end up sort of flopping over one another.
• His hair is naturally multi-colored. It's also very soft and fluffy - it feels like petting a chinchilla's fur.
• The scarf around his neck was a gift. Raiza can hardly ever be seen without it and only ever takes it off to wash it or when he sleeps.
• Raiza is very, very afraid of deep water and especially running rivers. River crossings give him high anxiety and he usually ends up shaking like a leaf when he has to cross one.
• Despite how social he is, Raiza enjoys the peace and quiet of a forest and often slinks off to have a nap in the trees.
• He's very good with kids! He tends to get very goofy around them which children seem to love. When he tells stories to groups of children, he usually makes the protagonists of those stories children too.
