Gunji is incredibly selfish and childish, often throwing a fit if he does not get his way. He's incredibly lazy when it comes to the needs of others, trying to put off having to do favors as much as possible unless he's going to get something out of it. Despite this, he has a very hard time telling people no, often accepting pretty much any request given to him--often leading him and his friends into a large amount of hassle.

He is incredibly blunt, thinking that being unrelentingly honest is the way to go when talking to others; regardless of the fact that it often makes people upset with him. Selfish, vain, and generally irritating; it's hard to find people who are surprised when Gunji makes enemies. Despite all of his shortcomings, Gunji does manage to be a very caring friend. He will do almost anything for those he cares about, even though it takes a lot of mistakes to get there. There's nothing Gunji loves more than being around those he cares about, and he is an incredibly affectionate person.

Background & A Realm Reborn

Gunji was born in a traditional village known as Sui-no-Sato. He found his upbringing to be incredibly restrictive started at a young age, often causing trouble for others by wandering as far as he could before he was caught and made to go back to the village. Unable to conform to the conservative idealogy of his town, and being kept at arms length due to his abrasive personality; he decided to leave the moment he'd become an adult; even if it meant he would never be welcome back by those he called his family.

He has two younger siblings, named Yomi and Ugan. Very close with the two of them, despite having quite a large age difference (6 year difference with Yomi, 9 with Ugan), this made it incredibly difficult to make the decision to leave. Ugan, his asocial and quiet brother was the one to give Gunji the final push, encouraging him to go on his own journey and saying that he hated seeing his older brother live a life that made him so unhappy.

Gunji’s parents also encouraged their son. Saying that they could live with being apart from him as long as he could live a life without regrets. Yomi, on the other hand, was far more torn. Upset that her brother was so unhappy with their way of life. Eventually, she relented, giving Gunji a book to read on his journey whenever he got bored.

Once he left, he traveled to Kugane, with the intent to cross to Eorzea. There, he met Kaljah, a small auri woman who would become his best friend. Together they took a boat to the western continent to start their own adventures, splitting up for a short period of time.

Being in Eorzea was a culture shock for someone who had never been outside of the isolated village of Sui-no-Sato, and Gunji spent much of his first year growing accustomed to the continent he now devoted himself to exploring.

During his time with the Scions, Gunji became very protective over Alphinaud. Viewing the young boy as considerably smarter than him when it comes to traditional learning—but incredibly stupid when it comes to social knowledge. He made it his personal mission to make sure Alphinaud doesn’t do anything that would get him seriously hurt.

Heavensward

Once in Coerthas, it didn't take long for Gunji to become smitten with Haurchefant. He didn't stand a chance against the Elezen's positive and warm demeanor. Haurchefant became the first real romantic relationship Gunji had ever had.

Throughout Heavensward Gunji made sure to, once again, keep close to Alphinaud. Fearing that the boy’s regrets with the outcome of ARR might weigh too heavily on him.

He spent his time in Ishgard wary of its citizens, as many viewed Gunji’s scales, horns, and tail, a sign of dravanian blood. Due to the protection of being a ward of the Fortemps house, he was comfortable enough to mostly ignore the looks he got.

After the events of the Vault and the death of Haurchefant, Gunji became incredibly depressed in his mourning. Withdrawing almost completely, only going through the motions required to help end the Dragonsong war.

Stormblood

To say Gunji was disconnected from the events of Stormblood through the first year would be an understatement. He spent much of his free time coping through his own grief in unhealthy mannerisms. He distanced himself from anyone he called a friend as often as he could, only interacting with others in the most detached ways possible.

Gunji continued his work with the Scions and helping liberate Ala Mhigo, but was still only going through the motions. Thinking little of what he was doing and merely going where he was pointed and doing whatever he was told to do.

Around the journey to Othard, Gunji became considerably more responsive, the thought of being near his home managing to catch at least some of his focus. When the notion of helping Sui-no-Sato became a possibility, Gunji at first thought that he would have the courage to attempt to, at least briefly, step into the village he once called home.

The closer they got to Sui-no-Sato, though, the more Gunji's resolve wavered, and he ended up requesting the Scions handle the issue in his childhood home without him while he waited nearby for news of their success.

It was also during the time in Othard that Gunji got to know the second Leveilleur twin better. Much more functional than her brother, Gunji gained a sort of older sibling fondness for Alisaie. Noticing her penchant for recklessness, however, it seems that Gunji is destined to be incredibly protective of both elezen siblings.

He had a strange experience while on the Steppe, seeing au ra so different than what he was used to growing up. Gunji enjoyed greatly learning about the Xaela--though at times it seemed that the differences in scale color and upbringing seemed to clash with certain tribes. Notably the fact that Gunji developed a sort of loathing for one Magnai of the Oronir tribe. Whenever the man would go into his diatribe of the Oronir being chosen of the Dawn Father, Gunji found his eyes glazing over as he'd attempt to calmly and patiently wait for him to stop.

Though mostly detached on the liberation of Ala Mhigo, Gunji ended up putting his all into it. Out of want to do some semblance of good during a state of his own grief, trying to live up to the man who called him a hero with his dying breath.. as well as a respect for Rauhban.

Shadowbringers

Gunji was pulled into the First quite a bit earlier than most of his friends. A year earlier, to be specific. He waited with G'raha's promise that the others would come soon enough, but the more time that passed the more terrified of being along Gunji became. Since the moment he had arrived in Eorzea, Gunji had never been so alone. So used to being surrounded by others, the sudden isolation from those he loved crippled him emotionally.

He threw himself into helping the Crystarium and Novrandt as a whole. Working mostly in the Spagyrics as a healer, but often lending his hand with botany or mining. Anything to keep his mind off of the loneliness that plagued him.
