Background
Lloyd is a professional angler with the fisherman's guild in Grancel. He has spent 5 years chasing after the "Master of Valleria Lake," a large salmon. at some point, he came into the possession of one of the the three legendary fishing tackles: the Argem Hook.

Lloyd is first seen at Valleria Lakeshore trying to fish the 'Master of Valleria Lake' when Estelle and co. arrive to ask him about what he saw the night that he saw the Sky Pirates. Lloyd tells them everything that he knows and jokes that the two that he saw may've been ghosts. He then mentions that the two should be back tonight, and after Estelle an co. leave, Lloyd gets back to his fishing.

During the Queen's Birthday Celebrations, Lloyd can be seen hanging out in the fisherman's guild hall. In most of his conversations with Estelle and Joshua, he laments that he cannot go fishing because all of the airships and checkpoints have been locked down in lieu of a terrorist attack,

After the Coup d'etat is thwarted, Lloyd can be seen celebrating that he can go fishing again.

Lloyd is first seen on the Linde with Estelle. Meeting up with Estelle again, they chat for a bit and he gives Estelle, a 'Progressive Rod' and a Fishing Guide. He then offers to teach her how to fish when they get to Ruan.

In Ruan, Estelle and her partner meet up with Lloyd in the Harbor part of Ruan. There he teaches Estelle how to fish and gives her some bait to fish with. He then leaves.

Lloyd was having a terrible time fishing and had not caught a single fish during a day at Valleria lakeshore., even after having spent the entire day there and heading out in a boat. Defeated, he set back for the inn but upon setting sights upon Estelle, who had caught buckets of fish, his competitive spirit was fired up and he challenged her to a five round anglers' duel. A fisherman's pride and honor are staked on the outcome, and upon the issue of the challenge, it can't be taken back and the duel must take place. Estelle defeats Lloyd and he gives her the Argem Lure as he acknowledges her skill and as per the rules. To refuse it would bring greater shame on the loser so Estelle accepts it. The Argem Lure is one of three legendary fishing tackles.
