Physical traits: black hair with green highlights, always wearing eyepatch over left eye where a scar is visible, resting bitch face
Other: Likes taking risks. Lives as if he will die tomorrow. He isn't blind or missing his left eye, its more he has light sensitivity due to having a cornea of an Ahrimans' after almost losing it in a fight with poachers.
A setback of this is gaining the attentions of voidsent, seeing faint traces of fissures and prone to mild headaches if the presence is especially powerful.
Can summon an Ahriman that serves as his third eye and is able to dispatch it for reconnaissance. Its size depends on use as either an extra eye or a mount.
Another boon with this pact is spawning Ahriman wings for flight
Wind aspected to aid in movement for jumps and landings
Higher aetherpool and longer duration of flight with no setbacks under Umbral Wind conditions
Voiceclaim: Daniel Dae Kim
☆Playlist☆
He comes off as standoffish, arrogant, observant and silent but really he's just coasting along, tempting fate out of a sense of not deserving to be breathing. His arrogance only shows in combat, seeing as he was the only survivor of his cell of Wood Warders, clearly he was and is always the best and they're dead but he isn't so he suffers in silence an angry survivor's guilt.Majority would accuse him of having a superiority complex, his response is that he is just 'better than you, nothing complex about it.'A semblance of friendship is for those who have earned his trust in a way that they can take care of themselves yet sometimes he will begrudgingly step in because there is no way in seven hells they're going to wring him through that guilt trip.No matter how much he desires to not care. No one lives forever, even Viera despite their lifespan and everyone dies eventually. Its just better to not get attached or put so much stock into things like social etiquette, hierarchy, etc. and enjoy the present, however brief it will be.Romance also applies. While he can be an attentive lover, it is all fleeting due to his outlook on life, by no means is he unfaithful though. No strings attached, if he really enjoys their company he'll stick it out for half a century or two until they perish.The best friend and worst enemy one could have in this leporine lancer.
Nore
Nore and a few others were taken out too early under the premise of making stronger warders but of course, none in his group make it and he maims the older mentor for revenge and spite and its made him jaded with an angry survivor's guilt/complex of "Yes I'm the sole survivor, I'm the best, but that was beyond rough, that was my family and brothers in arms".
Green Death
He did spend some time in Gridania and a brief stint with the Wood Wailers, but because it was on-sight thing for him in dealing with enemies and such, he was a loose cannon with authority, hence the brief time spent in service. Earned himself his name/title of the Green Death.He was driven out by an alliance of bandits and poachers, absolutely certain death would finally claim him but he was discovered by an elezen woman who was a water spirit and treated his injuries. While grateful, he was also upset at having survived once more, seeing it as fate toying with his life.Not wanting to subject the woman to his trip and also out of concern for developing a fondness for her as she fell for him, he left her as soon as he was able on the pretense that he was still being targeted and it wasn't safe for her if he were to remain at her side.Making his way through the Shroud to Thanalan to Vesper bay where he took a ship to Limsa Lominsa, all the while whenever he stared out at the waves, his thoughts always drifted to that water spirit.
> Verdant
He settled in Limsa with minimal issues, blending in as if he was blending into the green of the woods, finding a home and comradery with the Rogue's guild.His superior hearing for sleuthing from a distance- pinpointing interesting topics and slips of shady tongues plus his close-quarters combat experience serving well with the group and a 'trick of the eye' thats secret from his fellows, earning himself his own name as the Verdant Tyrant or Vert for short. Favoring more a polearm than the knives though still proficient with them.It was they who mellowed him out as well as just being in such a lively place compared to the isolation and solitude of the forests and he embraces the code, but he slips back into that executioner mindset when something really bugs him. He neither likes or dislikes it, its both a defense and coping mechanism and will do nothing to change that.
Out of character/Rp info
Player is 30+, she/her, 10 yrs of rp xp, mostly tumblr rp. FFXIV rp new road I'm treading on between breaks of my playthrough of the game proper. Friendly, perpetually sleepy but a nightowl just vibing along. Mostly active afternoons/evenings.
Ok with anything, casual, fluff, slice of life to darker themes like angst, violence, combat, some substances. Send a tell to see what is/isn't ok. More examples; bar/club hopping/crawls, casual chats and banter, adventure, friendly, flirty. Will try to match length/responses.Ok with discussing development or just winging it of something along the lines of:
Friendships
Platonic
Allies / Partners
Mentor / Apprentice
Guardians
Sworn enemies
No meta-gaming, no minors/minor-aged characters.IC and OOC are separate, character's views are separate from player's.Ingame-wise I am not that far so most open-world areas aren't available to me. Going thru Dawntrail now and is subject to change as I progress.
