## Appearances

### Roleplays

*Rain Reign*

**Tristan** is a Warrior-classed Mii on Violet's team, and is known to be the Dark Prince. He is a main protagonist and point-of-view for the Greenhorne arc, and is a major side character and minor antagonist in the Neksdor arc. In *The Phantom Calling*, he's a main protagonist of the first book as a native resident of Dragonwood Isle going to Dragonwood Academy.

## Appearance

Tristan has somewhat wild hair, with it curving into a spike facing the right (though he has used gel to give it this look). His hair has a chocolate brown hue, though it looks closer to a dark blond if in bright lighting. He has green eyes and lightly tanned skin - he also has a slightly muscular frame, though this only due to his status as a Warrior.

## Personality

Tristan is rather laid-back in comparison to the rest of his team - he often can't be bothered to most things, making it is questionable as to why he chose the career of a Warrior. However, his excuse for this is that of "he needed to protect himself somehow". Despite his easygoing attitude, he's actually quite prone to arguments, especially with stubborn Miis such as Holly. He tends to jump to conclusions as well, which doesn't help in that factor. Tristan is also a bit of a romantic and a flirt, as shown by his behaviour towards Violet and the waitress in *The First Companion*.

## Relationships

### Violet

**Violetsbane: A Miitopian Tale:**

In the rewritten version of Violetsbane, Tristan gets along with Violet fairly well, despite not knowing each other for long - he sees her as a good leader, though he can find faults within her actions from time to time. Regardless, he views her as a friend and cares deeply for her, as he has vowed to help Violet set things right with her hometown in chapter five.

### Holly

**Violetsbane: A Miitopian Tale:**

Tristan and Holly have an interesting relationship - most of the time, they argue with one another, but it seems more playful from Tristan's side if anything. However, Holly seems to take it the wrong way, leading to them getting to the point of possibly lashing at one another. Regardless, he sees Holly as a valuable teammate, but doesn't particularly see her as a friend.

### Silverfire

**Violetsbane: A Miitopian Tale:**

Tristan and Silverfire aren't the best of friends, and Tristan doesn't see him as one, either. He's mostly suspicious and annoyed by Silverfire if anything, as Silverfire has managed to both creep him out when he knew their names in chapter two and irritate him in the same chapter. However, he does appreciate that Silverfire shows concern in Violet in chapter four - though it confuses him as to why he is in the first place.

### Twyla

**The Phantom Calling:**

Tristan is rather reluctant to grow close with her due to the love spell cast to make her love him, but he enjoys being around her regardless. He feels terrible that she's under the spell, lamenting on how he wishes that she was able to express her actual feelings towards him instead. Despite this, he's happy being her friend.

### Stone

**The Phantom Calling:**

Tristan eventually became close friends with Stone, usually hanging out with Stone if not with Twyla. Tristan finds it nice to talk to Stone, as both of them manage to bond over various things such as herbalism, and often take walks together on the island. He also thinks that he enjoys hanging out with Stone 'a bit too much', and admits that he feels warm and fuzzy when around Stone. Tristan acknowledge's Stone's crush on him, and reciprocates it.

## Trivia

* In some drafts of Violetsbane, Tristan was a chef instead of a warrior. That was later changed to warrior.

## Quotes

> "*W-Well, no...but...you said your name was Violet? That's honestly a lovely name, I wish mine was half as pretty. [...] Hey, no, I mean it. Violet is both a gorgeous color and flower, and it just so happens that you're named after two beautiful things.*"

> "*I'm going to be honest with you, Violet- I've been going through some rough things as of late, and to be completely blunt, you're the only option I really have other than...an unspecified reason that we really shouldn't get into. Plus, I wouldn't mind traveling the world with such a gorgeous woman like you.*"
