This clan was famous for seeking to travel to foreign lands to perfect their craft in poison and medicine making. Creating dangerous poisons and powerful potions to defend themselves with. At the age of 3 his parents set sail for Limsa Lominosa to experience a whole new world when they both heard about rare ingridents to be found for their tribe. Upon arriving his parents used disguises wearing headgear to make it appear as if their horns were decorations rather then actually a apart of them. This continued for several years his parents sending letters to his grandfather about the sights and wonders they saw as his father Toarbiashi worked with the Knights of the Baracud using his skills as a hunter and cotor to help at sea. His mother stayed at home raising Zoktai teaching him both Xaela as well as Eorzean Script. His father bought a vast variety of books for Boal and Zoktai. Zoktai's favorite book was about a merchant of unlucky fate which would use his brains to escape dangerous adventures by the name of Dabnis. While he did his own reading his mother taught him the basics of poision and potion making. |
− | This easygoing lifestyle continued until Zoktai was twelve in 1549. Exploring Limsa one day he stumbled upon Mealvaan's Gate the massive library inside enchanted him, from then on he spent every waking minute he could reading and learning from the guild. Using his allowance he started buying other books on studies of variety of technologies and relics. Taking lessons from various other members he started practicing Arcanistry being fascinated by the some of the far fetch miracles he read accomplished with Arcanistry. At fifteen he summoned his first carbuncle immensely enjoying the companion. | + | :This easygoing lifestyle continued until Zoktai was twelve in 1549.

− | Fall of the year 1555 at 18 Zoktai returned home to find it ravaged with his mother killed. One of his father's missives got him tangled with a foreign pirate group known as the Bloody executioners that wanted revenge for several of their own being killed. This filled Zoktai with rage and guilt at a variety of sources the Excutioners, his father, and just the world at large for someone who have performed no wrong be punished. Upon his father return from a mission his father wracked with grief turned to simply drinking between his missions bringing far less literature and far less interactions with his son. Knowing he wasn't strong enough to hunt after the pirates alone and not believing in his father recovering at all Zoktai was looking for ways to avenge his mother and bring her soul peace. Mercenaries were not an option and due to his age and little wealth he realized how useless he was. While heading to his usual reading spot a month later at the Arcanist guild he saw a Vessel apart of the Knights of the Baracuda 4th Squadron. His father was working with the 2nd Battlion. Asking to enlist he did his best to sell himself as a cabin boy hoping that with their training he could actually make use of himself and become strong enough to right the wrong to his family. After a week of pleading and showing his current skills with arcanistry and familiarity with sea charts. He was allowed to clean decks and be in charge of resupplying the ship when they came into port. A little peeved by this he begrudgingly accepts securing a place apart of the Squadron. He meets his dad that night who gives him a gift, a ring he received from his wife saying he has news for him. His father tells Zoktai he's going to head home which surprises Zoktai. Zoktai tells him his own plans lying saying he wants to perfect his potions with the Baracudas. They argue at first ,but then his father sighs and explains that it is their clan's way of life to go and explore this world for better understanding of their crft. With his father blessing he wishes his dad well on his travels as well. Toarbiashi gives Zoktai modest sum of gil as well as a a knife for his own protection. A few days later after saying his good byes Zoktai receives his own custom grimoire from the Arcanist Guild as a going away present. Acepting it with a heavy heart he joins the Knights of the Baracuda 4th Squadron and heads to the indigo Sea along with the others. | + | :Fall of the year 1555 at 18 Zoktai returned home to find it ravaged with his mother killed.

Life off the coast Sharyala was quiet on the outset. Within a year Zoktai unfortunately ran into his first battle. Their ship came under aattack from what seemed to be a rival factions scouting vessel. When they counter attacked they were boarded. Zoktai being put in a unfortunate situation used his magicks to defend himself with the help of another crew member assisting him by the name of Troewyb a Sea Wolf who was sailor and two years older then him. They were able to repel the invaders. Unfortunately Zoktai had his first taste of dealing death when doing a body count with others one of the Garlean survivors was in a weaken state rised suddenly to grab at him Zoktai panicked and stabbed him with his father's knife killing him. This bothered him for a moon. Troewyb tried to comfort him telling him it was necessity. The thing was the death itself didn't bother him he was more disturbed at how weak his poisons were and how he needed to be more effective in killing other pirates to make sure they couldn't hurt anyone again. This inspired him to use battles as a way to experiment on enemies and making his arcanistry more deadly to the slight disturbance of his pears. After another few battles at sea he realized his arcanistry was growing and decided to redouble his efforts into getting better at his studies to become more potent at it. He also asked for assistance in learning the basics of weapons that some of his crewmen used to help out in case he needed a fall back. Out of this a Mi'Qote crewmate by the name of Horokoloan taught him how to use knives. Another taught him the skill of using a musket and cutlass. He felt better learning these traits just in case his grimoire was damged our he had to depend on other means. As he worked more along the sea the ship occasionally stopped on the cost to deal with sharylan merchants who would sell necessities in exchange for garlean tools, relics found, and surplus stolen that could be gleam for knowledge. Curious about the tradings and having his job be a part of it Zoktai was taught the business of haggling and management for the ship. During one trade he 'confiscated' what seem to be some a rumored 'Carbine'. He learned how to use it from another pirate on board and thought it was a sufficient substitute in case he couldn't have time to read his spells yet can equally keep enemies at a range. | Life off the coast Sharyala was quiet on the outset.

Details
General Information Zoktai is a man in his early forties who now seeks to live life as he sees fit. He's one known to lean back and let others play heroes and villains, only taking action in politics when he deems it necessary. He refuses to risk the life of himself or those close to him without good reason. He's a business manager running several businesses under his company, '8-bits of Gil', expanding across Limsa Lominsa and Gridania. He has a few goals which motivate his experiments. Appearance
Zoktai actively keeps himself clean due to the chemicals he handles during the experiments he conducts and the meetings he must attend. He bathes at least twice a day, if not more so, even after exercise or other activities. Unless in bed, he's one to take a bath after most activities. As for his attire, he normally wears fashion close to a mix of Limsan and Doman wear fitting of a noble. The exception of this is his Magitek armor he only wears during exploration or expecting to go into battle. He never goes without some form of carry pouch for gadgets he may need later. He also always wear some sort of prescribed glasses/goggles. Personality

"We met in a market place and she was curious about my carbuncle. She then accepted teaching from me on the aspects of arcanistry. Over time and a few beatings doled out by her ,we became friends and eventually lovers. She now runs a Blacksmith shop under my company for me. Somehow with all that's happened she's now the mother of my child. Not that I regret it mind you, I just wish she'd understand how often I want to keep her around."
