So yeah, It's an incredibly long time since I drew something that would fit with this site. To those who are still watching me, I commend your patience and commitment!

I don't really remember how, but I was suddenly inspired to draw a male Viera, so here he is! Just want to point out that yes there are male Viera, they just live separately from the females. Also, for people who don't know what Viera are, check here if you want to find out!

Now, this is Asjr. (Bonus points to those who can guess what I based the name off of. Also, the Viera names in Final Fantasy XII were all 4 letters long, which limited the way I was able to spell this.) He's 48 years old, but considering how a Viera's lifespan would be an average of around 300 years, he would be considered to be in his teen years by Viera standards. His only known blood relative is his older brother Vanr (This could be a hint to where the names came from, for those who would know), a Salve-Maker in his village. As is the case with most Viera, it was curiosity that led him to leave the Wood at 40, going against his brother's advice, but the conflict among the other races, as well as the lack of connection to nature, left him somewhat depressed and feeling rather isolated. This isolation was only increased by the fact that he did not relate with the female Viera very well since the two sexes lived separate from each other, meeting only for mating and the discussion of important issues, and that males didn't leave the Wood as often as females did, which is the cause for the myth that males didn't exist. However, since he had gone against the Green Word by leaving the Wood, he was forbidden to return, leaving him to wander the outside world.

After two years of wandering, Asjr came across a Nu Mou Sage who, having known several Viera though never meeting a male himself, became Asjr's mentor. After studying Magicks under him for six years, the elderly Nu Mou passes away, leaving his apprentice a final gift, a rare piece of magicite that, having no elemental attributes in itself, instead acts as a catalyst to amplify the power of spells. The magicite now rests within Asjr's spear.

With his only friend outside the Wood now deceased, Asjr returned to his solitary wandering. Unwilling to go through that sort of pain again, he has become rather close-hearted, not wanting to become close to anyone, especially those of the races with shorter lifespans.

When the need for money arises, Asjr takes on the role of a mercenary, though he is somewhat particular about the jobs he takes. He is unwilling to commit to any long-term contracts, due to his desire to not become attached to certain places or people, and he will never take a job that would require he take the life of any creature other than a monster, though he will fight other races when needed, just never landing a killing blow.

Since he left the Wood before coming of age and joining in the Viera mating ritual, Asjr is rather uncomfortable around women, no matter the race, having never grown accustomed to them and prefers greatly the company of men. Another trait of his young age (by Viera standards) is that, coupled with his minimal understanding of the outside world, he can be somewhat naive at times and, despite his rather bleak view of the world, doesn't truly understand just how cruel or manipulative people can be.

As can be seen in the picture, Asjr wield's two weapons, a spear and a bow. His bow is bladed to allow for close range strikes should an opponent come too close for him use arrows reasonably. While his spear is used primarily for thrusting, there are also bladed edges on the sides for halberd-like slashes as well as a small blade on the bottom should he be surrounded. As was mentioned earlier, the magicite resting inside allows for spell casting much like a staff, making him an incredibly versatile fighter.
