===Lore===
Born as the illegitimate child to [[Edmont de Fortemps]]. Though he was permitted to live and grow up in the house, he was not close to his father or stepmother, and did not enjoy the same respect as his half-brothers. As he grew, he desired a chance to change his fate, and was soon given one. He came across [[Francel de Haillenarte]] beset by bandits who were attempting to kidnap the noble. He fended off the kidnappers with nothing but a knife, blocking any incoming attacks, including an arrow, with his bare arm. He was bequeathed knighthood for his valorous deed, and dedicated his life to living up to his title.
 
'''Haurchefant''' first met the [[Warrior of Light]] in [[Coerthas]] when they come looking for the [[Enterprise]], [[Cid nan Garlond]]'s [[Airship]]. '''Haurchefant''' agreed to help them search for the vessel, but only if they helped him disprove the charges of heresy levied against '''Francel''' and [[House Haillenarte]]. While the '''Warrior of Light''' gathers clues and evidence and eventually proves the young lord's innocence, '''Haurchefant''' discovered the location of the ship, [[the Stone Vigil]]. The '''Warrior of Light''', '''Cid''' and [[Alphinaud Leveilleur]] reach the '''airship''', taking out the dragon guarding it.
 
Later, when a shipment to [[Revenant's Toll]] is attacked by heretics, '''Haurchefant''' explains the rising attacks of heretics at the behest of [[Ysayle|Lady Iceheart]]. He implores the [[Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] and the '''Warrior of Light''' to investigate the heretics' actions within [[Eorzea]]. He also introduced them to [[Aymeric de Borel]], who ensured continuous supplies would come to [[Mor Dhona]] in exchange for watching over the [[Keeper of the Lake]].
 
Following the coup at the banquet where the '''Warrior of Light''' and the '''Scions''' were falsely accused of regicide, '''Haurchefant''' brought the '''Warrior of Light''', '''Alphinaud''' and  '''Tataru''' to '''House Fortemps''' where they were offered asylum and made wards of the house and allowing them entry into '''Ishgard''' proper.
 
When [[Emmanellain de Fortemps]] was kidnapped by the [[Vanu Vanu]], '''Haurchefant''' fought alongside the '''Warrior of Light''' to rescue his brother, charging the fortress and bringing his brother home. Upon returning to the city however, he found it under attack by heretics. When '''Lady Iceheart''' commanded the heretics to stand down, he allowed her and her people to walk out of the city unimpeded.
 
Following the revelation that the [[Dragonsong War]] had been started by the original [[King Thordan]] and '''Aymeric''' left to [[The Vault]], '''Haurchefant''' led the charge to free him, rescuing him from the dungeons while the '''Warrior of Light''' ascended to the top of '''The Vault''' to stop [[Archbishop Thordan VII]] from escaping. When one of the [[Heavens' Ward]] fired a [[Spear of the Fury]] at the '''Warrior of Light''', he lept in front of it, using his shield to guard against it. Unfortunately, the '''Spear''' was too strong, and broke through the shield, impaling him. As he lay dying, he thanked the '''Warrior of Light''', and told them not to look so upset, as "a smile better suits a hero". He smiled one last time, and passed away.
 
Upon returning to '''Fortemps Manor''', his father praised him for dying in a valorous way, as befitting a knight, and asked to be alone. Unable to handle the grief, he collapsed. Later, he would gift the '''Warrior of Light''' with the shield '''Haurchefant''' used to save their life. '''Haurchefant''' was laid to rest overlooking all of '''Ishgard'''. Later, '''Emmanellain''' took over his position as commander and hung a massive painting on the wall of his brother.
 
When rescuing [[Estinien Wyrmblood]] from the clutches of the '''Shade of Nidhogg''', '''Haurchefant's''' spirit appeared and aided in the removal of the eyes. When '''Estinien''' was saved, he smiled and faded away. He would also later aid the '''Warrior of Light''' and the '''Scions''' in [[The Aitiascope]] by using his [[Aether]] to greatly empower his allies in order to overcome their enemies.
