<br>((Askier was part of the Garlean Army the day of the Calamity, and, as a result, was not sent forward in time.))
<br>((Askier is gifted at building explosives))
<br> ((He did try to blow up Ul'dah - see "Saga of the Wind Swept Sands" for details
<br> ((He is pardoned and is living in Ul'dah as his new home not staying out of trouble. Sorry Osric. =p ))

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier is a tall, attractive, 31 years old male, with slight wrinkles starting to be visible around his lips and eyes. His ashen skin stands in stark contrast to the chestnut-brown hair he always styles in a slicked back fashion to keep it out of his eyes. His narrow face is covered in numerous scars and face paint that has no real meaning other than Askier thinks it looks rather awesome on himself. His eyes shimmer a bright gold every time they catche the light.
<br><br>The miqot'te's body is tall, taller than a fair number of hyur, and his body is taught and muscled from years of military service. Should he be caught without a shirt on, a nasty collection of wicked looking scars cover the left side of his torso, as the result of falling off a chocobo onto a whiskey bottle inside his coat. Scars, scabs, and callouses cover his hands.

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Behavior</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier is a bizarre sort of character, often perceived as a naive individual. He is quick to give a smile and even faster to offer to buy someone he has just met a drink as he tells terrible jokes. He feels the most alive when other people around him laugh at something he has done or said. He tries see the best in someone and is fanatically loyal to those he calls his friends, and expects the same dedication from them in return.

<br><br>Askier will be the first to admit he relies a great deal on luck and refuses to think himself as an intellectual since he has trouble containing his volcanic temper, which is easily set off. However, for all his apparent absent-mindedness, he is a reasonably intelligent being, often able to win word games and riddles quickly and can construct explosive devices with relative ease and knows a lot about them.

<br><br>Askier views the world as one giant experience waiting to happen and that gods, spirits, and mortal races are all subject to no greater end than what they try to achieve for themselves. He believes that everyone acts for reasons that are logical to themselves, and, as such, calling someone good or evil is pointless in Askier's mind. He sees all things as equal and would gladly help out a stranger. But, because there are those that would harm what Askier chooses to care about, he finds no qualms in killing, viewing it as a normal part of being alive and that the act of killing isn't to be viewed as vile, but that the intentions behind the act certainly can.

Askier fights with his fists and feet, preferring the intimate feeling of his opponent's body against his knuckles. He knows a moderate amount of restoration magic.

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Family</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Father''</div>

*''Ven'li Mergrey'' - Deceased. Askier's father was a soldier for the Garlean Empire whose illustrious job was to wrangle up chocobos. His father was also a drunk and was killed by a chocobo stampede when Askier was six.

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Mother''</div>

*''Unknown'' - All Askier knows about his mother is that she gave an infant Askier to his father and then never came back into his life after she left.

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Sister''</div>

*''Saravena Ancariis'' - Askier's younger sister. They share the same father but a different mother. She is an energetic and kind individual and Askier is incredibly loyal to her. However, for nearly two years, she has been locked in a cell, used as leverage by Askier's Garlean superiors to "encourage" him to build his magictek bomb and destroy Ul'dah.
</div>

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Friends</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">

*''[[Delial Grimsong]]'' - A tall, secretive woman Askier first met in Uldah looking for recruits. Askier promised to use his network of spies to find Delial's brother in exchange for her help. Since then, she has become one of his most valued allies. While they don't agree on specific tactics, or Askier's wardrobe, the two share a similar world view and Askier finds her ruthlessness for the sake of family immensely refreshing. He enjoys speaking and joking with her though he knows that she finds him rather naive; but Askier is okay with that. Delial is not the kind of woman you show all your cards to right away.

*''[[I'khalo Belho]]'' - A small, young miqo'te woman. Askier first met her when the young bard was trying to write a song. Needing a muse, Askier acted as one for her. Since then, Askier has taken an older brotherly stance towards her, viewing her as a second sister. She is naive, headstrong, and playful and reminds Askier of himself and his sister when they were young. He is fiercely protective of her but has become distant as of late. I'halo shunned Askier after she learned of his Garlean roots and her reaction still stings when he thinks about it, especially since he tried to give up booze for her.

*''[[Kahn'a Od'hilkas]]'' - A member of the Red Wings and, in Askier's mind, a male with a mythical knight quality. More so then even Erik, Kahn'a proved during "Saga of the Wind Swept Sands" to be Askier's greatest challenge, something he had never expected. Unlike Erik, who Askier was able to influence with thoughts of games and rules, Kahn'a stands resilient to Askier's tact. Dogmatic, loyal, headstrong and blunt, Kahn'a repeatedly disrupted Askier's plans; not through sheer brilliance but by simple perseverance. But any spiteful feelings for Kahn'a have evaporated. Askier feels a deep connection to Kahn'a since the male not only saved his sister, but was willing to put his life and his reputation on the line by helping Askier fake his own death by acting as Askier's killer. Askier wishes to pay his debt to Kahn'a above all the rest because he feels as if he owes Kahn'a the most for all the hardship he put him through, and because he desires to be around him.

*''[[Osric Melkire]]'' - A Flame Sergeant midlander Hyur. At one point in time, Askier though the man was beneath thinking about, having broken Osric's knee and finding his fighting to be sub-par. However, that all changed the day Osric returned Saravena to him. Over time, Askier has come to see that it is Osric is far more influential than his rank would lead one to believe. Osric planned out how to fake Askier's death and save those Kahn'a cares for the most, and, by doing so, has forever made Askier in the hyur's debt whether he wishes it or not.

*''[[Kanaria Galanodel]]'' - A woman who has truly came out of nowhere only to play a large role in Askier's time in Ul'dah. Askier first met her briefly when his Free Company superior, S'honji, was scolding Askier for fighting in public. Askier was polite but left quickly once S'honji was distracted with her. However, Askier encountered her again, discovering she was both easy to talk and dignified, a combination of traits he rarely found together. Askier managed to convince her to help him under the false pretense of being a merchant in need of armed escorts. However, Kanaria, Askier discovered, is an incredibly loyal person, eager to help Askier even after she learned of his true motives. Her honesty and incredible eagerness has Askier often turning to her when he feels confused and is in need of guidance. She killed Jin'li and helped kill Adin.

*''[[Grieving Hound]]'' - Askier's closet friend. She is reserved, tall, and bluntly honest to a fault. The two first met when they both applied for the Harbingers of Dawn Free Company on the same day. They decided to patrol the roads near Limsa Lominsa together and keep them safe, destroying several gnoll war parties. There was an instant connection between them and they often drank together, laughing and recalling their adventures. Hound tolerates Askier's excessive drinking and childish antics well, often simply shaking her head and laughing. Askier feels completely relaxed around her, almost too much so. Hound, slowly grew tired of the politics of the Free Company, and left for the mountains. Askier, alone and missing his friend, purchased his now trademark coat and plunged into the swirling snows to find her. There, Askier spent many nights trying to get Hound to come back. Their time in the mountains culminated with them joining a hunting party and killing a dragon. Once the beast was dead, Hound decided it was time to return to the south. Askier seized his chance and convinced Hound to help him destroy Ul'dah. Hound, however, had no plans to do so and saved Siha from Askier's kidnapping attempt and fought against him. Hound revealed she did it to save him and their friendship has mended.

*''[[Raven Gorehand]]'' - A tall,female summoner with a powerful affinity for magic and a friend of both Hound and Askier. Raven and Askier were simple aquaintances for a long time until he needed help. Raven surprised him with her eagerness to help him, participating in several attempts on Kahn'a's life. Her ability to slip from reserved woman to wicked fiend with ease makes her a terrific ally for Askier and he values her and her powers immensely.

*''[[Itarliht Syhrkoensyn]]'' - A massive Roe who spoke up for Askier at his trial. After Askier faked his death, Itar hunted for Askier, seeking to offer his help, feeling they were kindred spirits. Once Askier returned to Ul'dah, Askier learned of the connection he two had through the marks they both bore. Askier enjoys the company of the blunt but incredibly intelligent Roe and will throw his life out for Itar, though he cannot explain exactly why he is willing to go so far. Askier fondly calls him "Big Guy."

*''[[Kraz'a Axrial]]'' - An armored juggernaut of a miqo'te Askier first meet when Kraz'a defended him at his trial. He encountered the miqo'te again and learned Kahn'a had told Kraz'a of their plan. Askier's first meeting with Kraz'a was gruff but lett him with a positive impression. The second time they met, Askier tried to hire Kraz'a for a job but the latter refused, but agreed to make small-talk. They spoke for a long time and Askier learned a great deal about Kraz'a and was able to help him find peace on an issue that had been bothering his mind. Since that encounter, Askier wishes nothing but the best for the other male and hopes to see him soon.

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Enemies</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">

*''[[Adin Adonis]]'' Askier's Employer and former commanding officer inside the Imperial Military. Was killed in Ul'dah.

*''[[Jin'li Epinoch]]'' Adin's slave and prize operative. The kit suffers from numerous disease and is very scikyl, but is a lethal shot with a gunblade. It was Jin'li who watched over Askier's siter for two years and helped Askier ship in his needed magitek parts. Askier hates the male with a burning passion and wishes to kill Jin'li should they ever meet again. Was believed killed in Ul'dah.He is Askier's half-brother but neither knows it.

*''[[Erik Mynhier]]'' - The Red Wings Unit Captain. Askier first approached him planning on toying with him and setting up a game of cat and mouse between the two. He had heard rumors of Erik's delight of challenges and hoped that by setting up a system of rules with the man, his plot would succeed with ease since he viewed Erik's network of agents as the only true threat to his operation. However, Askier discovered he and Erik were kindred spirits and, to his own surprise, found himself liking the man, who even honestly said, they could have been friends if it hadn't been for Askier's desire to destroy Ul'dah.

*''[[Siha Xinkei]]'' - Captain Mynhier's adopted sister. Siha is a very sweet Moonkeeper who Askier met for the first time at Erik's ball. Askier charmed the young woman easily, making her smile and asking her to dance as he pretended to be a simple merchant, realizing she was the perfect leverage again Erik, should something go wrong with his plan. His desire to abduct the young woman was, in fact, encouraged by Erik should Askier succeed in his plan, but her kidnapping went badly. Askier enjoys her company and her polite manners. He doesn't find her to be nearly as threatening as Erik.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier was born in the Garlean Empire to Ven'li and a female he knows nothing about. His mother stuck around long enough to birth him and recover before leaving Askier with his father. Ven'li was stationed in an open plan and was responsible for taming chocobos. Ven'li was a distant father and Askier only remembers him from his smell of booze. Askier's sister, Saravena, was born five years after he was to another female. Askier's father was killed when Askier was six. Askier was sent to live with his father's brother, who was a woodcutter near a river.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
For the next 10 years, Askier and Saravena lived relatively uneventful lives. They helped their uncle deforest large swathes of the land to send the lumber down river for the Garlean war machine and learned simple schooling from traveling scholars.
<br>This simple life was violently interrupted when a group of anti-imperial soldiers assaulted the camp and burned many of the workes and the woods in an attempt to hurt the lumber supply to the Garlean military. Askier and Saravena escaped but their uncle was lost in the flames.
<br>Lost, the pair eventually reached a city. There starving, and forced with some unpleasant options, Askier enlisted to serve the army to earn money for his little sister to eat.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier would spend the next four years being bounced around from one tour of duty to the next. During that time, he took to learning about magitek and started messing around with spare parts he stole. He discovered he was rather good with making random parts work together and his tinkering eventually caught the eye of an officer in the engineering branch. The officer had Askier transferred to his unit and Askier quickly excelled in his new job, causing a good amount of interest amongst the military brass when it came to new explosive devices. One such device of Askier's was loaded aboard a Garlean airship and was planned on being us the day of the Calamity, destroying his device before it could be detonated.

At seeing the immense power of the primal that day, Askier deserted his post, concerned only with keeping his sister safe. He returned home and fled with her south till they came to Eorzea, where they lived as traveling mercenaries for three years.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Life as a freelance mercenary was good for Askier and Saravena. They travelled and used their coin to live well. Askier began drinking more and more heavily during this time, much to the concern of his sister, who was unable to stop him. Askier used the money he made to keep his sister well taken care off as he spent the left over research what few books he could afford, trying to better himself.

Askier also tried to put his past behind him, and, while he still continued to study bomb making with the few books he could find written about magitek, it was simply for academic reasons.

He was enjoying his life and considered himself extremely lucky.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
But the good luck ran out. Askier was recognized by a Garlean spy near Ul'dah and, after tailing Askier, came up with a plan. He forces Askier to build another bomb, in Ul'dah. Askier refused initially but the agent took Askier's sister hostage and made the demand: "destroy Ul'dah or she dies". Askier gave in immediately for his sister and has been working on building his bomb for over a year and a half, shipping in the needed parts slowly and piece by piece to avoid attention.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">

((Askier's IC summary of Saga of the Wind Swept Sands"))<br><br>
To whomever finds this, This may be my last time sitting down to write, and I will be considering this as my last testament. The purpose of this testament is to chronicle the past two years, and, more specifically, the past few weeks that have led to me sitting in this cell.<br><br>

I begin when Saravena was taken, as that was the catalyst for all of this. Saravena and I had been wandering and working as mercenaries for the three years after my desertion from the Empire following the calamity.
It was a good life. However, my drunkenness proved our undoing. Like my father, the drink is my vice and I was drunk and loud too often back then. A servant of my former captain during my years in service to the Empire, hence forth referred to as “my employer”, recognized me. I do not know how long they followed after us, or planned, but they struck without warning. Saravena found a knife to her throat and I with a choice many say should have been harder to make than I found it to be. I agreed to save Saravena’s life by destroying Ul’dah with a bomb of my own creation.<br><br>

For the next two years, I moved in secret, slowing shipping in my needed parts a few at a time to keep myself from drawing unwanted attention to myself. I joined the Harbingers of Dawn during this time, hoping to find companionship to distract my mind from what I was doing. Although I found most inside the Free Company to be as full of schemes as I, I did find a few genuine companions, though only one I felt comfortable telling everything to, which I did. Hound, I know you cannot read and I apologize for lying to you about me not being able to do so for so long, but if this should ever be read aloud to you, know you are more than a friend, you are family.<br><br>

Hound hinted I should stop and try to find another way, but I dismissed her. What could the two of us do against “my employers” shadows? I was afraid and continued on, though I regret now not heeding her.<br><br>

I was allowed to see my sister during these two years on rare occasions. Always at a location “my employer’s” slave, Jin’li, picked, and only for a few moments. I began to grow impatient, wanting her back.I started making ripples in my haste.
Ripples Erik Mynhier began to detect. I realized this and grew angry. I was too close. So I made a move that, in hindsight, saved both Saravena and all of Ul’dah: I confronted Erik.<br><br>

Erik, should you see this, know that I have always judged a leader by how his enemies view him and his men revere him. 'A friend to all' is the title I bestow upon you. I came to you, trying to trick you into playing this game by my rules, to bend you to my will. But even then you showed me respect as I revealed half-truths to you. I should have realized then, when you let me walk away, that you had already won. You had already placed your prize pieces upon the board,<br><br>

Kahn'a Od'hilkas and Osric Melkire.<br><br>

Erik, I don’t know how many moves ahead of me you were or how you intercepted Jin’li’s letter to me, but you played it all so well. There I stood, in Vesper Bay, waiting for the shipping manifest from Jin’li that would reveal where I was to find the final three parts for my device. I recall how my allies and Delial Grimsong… I do not call Delial an ally because she is something more, a schemer as great as myself and as close a friend as one can have with such a dangerous creature. She was using me to help her own ends as much as she aided me out of a kindred bond to save our siblings. I have digressed.<br><br>

There we stood, with the manifest in hand, my eyes reading over it greedily, when Kahn’a and his allies attacked us. Looking back, I realize just how far Kahn’a has come since Vesper Bay. Back then he was just a scared kit while now he… during Vesper Bay, he was no real threat. The only reason I lost the manifest was a result of the hyur the woman, Daphine, smashing my eye with her book and Osric attacking my flank while I recoiled in pain. Osric certainly would have captured me and ended it all then and there had my chocobo, Drumstick, not come to my aid.<br><br>

After Vesper Bay, I nursed my wounds in secret. Delial did what she could for me, but my eye never healed properly, and even now, bright light causes it to weep blood profusely. I wanted revenge and so I hunted for it during the week until my last three parts would arrive. I found Kahn’a in an alley and thrashed him violently, hoping that my assault would stop Kahn’a for good. Instead, my violence caught the eye of my Harbinger of Dawn superior, S’honji, and his friend at the time, Kanaria Galanodel. Eager for more guards to help me recover my packages, I lied to them both, pleading for help recovering my shipments for “my employer” saying they were harmless artifacts. S’honji immediately mistrusted me, but Kanaria seemed to be eager to help a man in need. <br><br>

My allies gathered at the “Coffin and Coffer”, being Delial,Hound, Siha, Kanaria, and S’honji. Everything should have been easy. We split into two parties. Delial, Kanaria and Shonji went to The Silver Bazaar. Hound, Siha, and I went to Crescent Cove.<br><br>

But Hound betrayed me.<br><br>

Just as I had recovered my second part and planned to kidnap Siha, Kahn’a arrived. Hound then stepped forward and raised her axe against me. Outnumbered four-to-one, I was forced to swim for it with my part. Wet and half-naked, I rendezvoused back in Ul’dah with Delial’s team where we secured the two parts we had recovered and then proceeded to location number three, the graveyard near Camp Drybone. Osric,Hound, Siha, Kah’na, Daphine, and Jana were waiting for us. After a standoff, we came to blows, though it was my party that was forced to yield, all of us bloodied and beaten, save Kanaria, who proved to be a more dangerous combatant then I had ever expected,certainly more than S’honji, who fell to Osric’s blows swiftly. I broke Osric’s knee before fleeing on Drumstick once more, a battered Delial thrown unceremoniously across my saddle.
<br><br>

That night, I finished the bomb, even without the third part. As my lethal creation hummed intolife and the sinister glow burned into my eye, I will admit I felt pride at all I had accomplished. I had almost, single-handedly, done the impossible, something the might of the entire Imperial military had not been able to do: I had Ul’dah by the throat. In that moment, I was akin to Bahamut, a force of sheer destruction unable to be stopped. The timer on my bomb was ticking and would detonate in one week.<br><br>

Then my heart sank and my stomach twisted into knots as I realized, without a shred of doubt, I didn’t want to go through with my plan. The reality of what setting the device off would do, and what would happen to Saravena if I didn't let it go off, slammed into me. Depressed and confused, I started to drown my emotions in alcohol.<br><br>

For the next week, a war raged inside my mind, part of me playing the demon. I encountered Kahn’ain the streets of Ul’dah and my companion Raven and I tormented him, trying to break him of his will to fight. But I saw in his eyes he wasn’t afraid anymore. He was fighting back and I felt fear. I began to grow confused, and in my confusion, I acted, proceeding in an action that had repercussions in my mind and added fuel to my doubt. I might have even killed Kahn’a at that moment had Kanaria not intervened. I left, my mind wrapped in the fog of doubt and no amount of fiery liquor could burn the fog away.<br><br>

My conscious rose up in me, begging me to seek help. But from who? Hound had betrayed me and it would be some time till we mended our relationship. I thought I was alone again.<br><br>

I wasn’t. I know now that Kanaria was working with Kahn’a, but she found me sitting on some crates and managed to wring the truth of my goals and who I was from my lips without a bit of force. I was so desperate and wracked by guilt I needed to confess. Kanaria’s response amazed me. She did not shun me, but offered to help me to the bitter end. I left her, still confused but with the realization I wasn’t alone. I wanted to see Kanaria again, to talk to someone. She used this desire to break down my defenses and convinced me to meet with Kahn’a and Osric. During the meeting, I gave them a copy of the book I had written on explosive magitek as a token of good will. In return, Osric offered a plan:
<br><br>

Ask "my employer” to let me see my sister one last time, but instead of me going, he would and free my sister while I waited with my bomb, swearing to disarm it the moment Saravena was safe.<br><br>

That night, after the meeting, as I drank by the light of my bomb, I smiled. I remember it. For the first time in a long time, I saw a light at the end of this tunnel and it wasn’t a light of destruction.<br><br>

But the truce nearly failed.<br><br>

I had gathered my allies and Delial, still not entirely trusting Kahn’a and Osric. Kahn’a arrived with his troops and my mind immediately took it as betrayal but I waited. I was willing to humor them as they looked on at my bomb with terror. But then I heard Kahn’a say the words that broke my will that night. He looked straight at me and uttered: “Saravena is dead, Askier.”<br><br>

My mind snapped, I started dancing around, cackling, wanting to kill everyone and everything, wanting to set off the bomb, and I know I would have, had Kanaria not held me back. My allies and Delial refused to fight, they heard Kahn’a as he tried to explain Saravena was, in fact, still alive; that Osric had saved her after all. In my grief I failed to hear, and I was shot by Kahn’a’s arrow. After that, I remember very little as Daphine drugged me. But I know the bomb was disarmed and I was taken to this cell, where I have resided this past week, thinking.<br><br>

I was visited later by Kanaria and Kahn’a, who brought in an unconscious Saravena and placed her in my arms. Osric had kept up his end of the bargain, though they had almost lost her. I confess I wept for hours, both relieved that she was safe again after two years and ashamed for nearly breaking my end of the truce.<br><br>

But Jin’li isn’t done with me it seems. He still lives and conspires for “my employer.” If I ever see that runt again, I’ll sink my teeth into his throat and tear it out. Kahn’a and Osric tell me that Kahn’a is being forced to play a game for“my employer” much like the one I was forced to, though this time, it is not Ul’dah he wants destroyed, it is me for failing him and letting Osric make a fool out of him. <br><br>

I feel no hatred for Osric, Kanaria, or Kahn’a. Rather I view them as family. They simply tried to keep what they cared for safe and they were willing to help out a total stranger and his sister while doing so. How could I ever judge someone for that? Kahn’a especially has gone from my greatest foe to something I find myself surprised by. Raven, Kanaria, Osric, Hound, Kahn’a, Vali,even you Delial, I owe you all a debt I can never repay but will try.<br><br>

I have one last scheme to play. One, that if all goes well, will free me forever from this madman, though the price will by high for some near to me, but they have agreed and once again I am left in awe of their selflessness. I will stand trial soon and accept my punishment, be it acceptable to me. S’honji plans to convict me and execute me, but I have no plan on dying. Not until I return “my employer” for his years of kindness.<br><br>

In conclusion, I did not write this for pity or forgiveness. In truth, part of me will always be proud of what I have accomplished, though I am grateful that I never had to set off my device. No, I write this so that, no matter how history remembers me, there will always be a record from my own pen that proves that I am nothing more than a simple Garlean miqot’e, whom was fallible, foolish, and devoted to those he loves.<br><br>

Askier Mergrey, <br><br>
</p>

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Trial by Gunblade Fire''</div>

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier went to trial for his crimes during the "Saga of the Wind Swept" but he went to live and be free, not suffer S'honji's punishment.

Kahn'a was confronted by Jin'li and forced to play the very game Askier had been. This time, however, Askier was the target, and those Kahn'a cared about most were the hostages. Kahn'a came to Osric and Kanaria and told them, and the three worked out a way to trick Jin'li and free Askier from Jin'li's master. They would fake Askier's death in front of everyone. Askier was asked to trust Kahn'a to shoot at hi with the gunblade Jin'li had given him. Askier, seeing the young male forced to make the same type of choice he was and realizing the risk Kahn'a was taking to spare his life, agreed without hesitation, having come to trust Kahn'a, Kanaria, and Osric completely. The only other person who was to know was Saravena. During the trial, Askier stood mostly silent, letting those who would speak for him do so. They added to the plan. Then Askier stepped forward, giving Kahn'a a shot he couldn't miss. The other male took it and hit the metal covering they had slipped under Askier's shirt. Askier flew backwards into Osric, who pinched a set of nerves, sending Askier into a state of near death. To add to the effect, Askier bit a whole in his tongue to let blood ooze out. Osric rushed Askier away and revived him, though the bruising from the shot forced Askier to limp. Osric escorted Askier to an airship and sent him to Limsa. Askier, in immense pain, passed out aboard the ship, a free man for the first time in years.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier arrived in Limsa and kept a low profile. But Adin and Jin'li were no fools. They hunted Askier down and shot Askier off a cliff after tricking Osric into revealing Askier was alive. Askier fell from the cliff and saw the starry heavens and during that moment, a mark was burned onto the back of his neck before he slammed into the ocean and lost consciousness for several days as Osric's siblings saved him and took him to Lady Grace for healing. During that time, Osric, Kahn'a, and Kanaria hunted down Adin and Jin'li and killed them both. When Askier awoke, his ruined eye was fixed by Lady Grace's healer and his wounds as well. He rejoiced when he learned he was a truly free miqo'te. He returned to Ul'dah, where he encountered Adin's replacement, Rema, briefly as she told him she was calling off the attacks on Ul'dah for a time. Askier now calls Ul'dah his home and was looking to relax.

But that was not to last. Askier encountered the massive Roe Itarliht Syhrkoensyn, who mentioned the mark on Askier's neck and explained they were both part of a small collection of similar fellows with similar marks. Askier has agreed to help his new allies discover the purpose of the marks. But Itar was not done with Askier. Itar informed Askier there were several old allies of Askier's in need of aid and Askier offered to help without hesitation, even if doing so might reawaken his negative image amongst certain people.

Meanwhile, Askier was contacted to identify the explosive used on Lady Grace's ship. Askier agreed and determined the device but was accused of setting it himself and snapped angrily, viewing the cheap explosive beneath him. Askier has sworn to prove to Lady Grace how talented his skills are one way or the other.

<br> Jin'li is infected with several diseases that are all slowly killing him. They are:

<br>Bronchiectasis,

<br>Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

<br>Muscle atrophy

<br>Sickle Cell Anemia

Jin'li is a eunuch

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Jin'i is thin and frail for his young age, his illnesses slowly eating away at his body each day. Dark bags are always present under his eyes from never getting enough sleep and his straight hair falls unkempt down around his dark eyes that seem to hold no emotion in them at all. He is very short and the skin that is wrapped around his body is pale and white, though he does not suffer from albinoism. His narrow face isn't unattractive, however, and there was a time when many looked upon his youthful face with lust in their minds. Though time is taking all that from Jin and his body seems to be on a threshold, parts of his physique clinging to the strong, desirable male he once was as the rest wastes away from disease.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">

<br> Jin'li's most notable characteristic is his manners, which border on the obsessive. He is incredibly polite and often requests permission before doing anything. His manners, however, do not change to accommodate the location he is in, instead, always being tailored to his own system of beliefs regarding etiquette.

<br> Jin'li also feel no emotion when it comes to life or death. He knows he will die eventually and so will everyone else. He is a fatalist and holds no fear since he thinks he was killed by those who used his body all those years ago. Threats against his person do not phase him, nor does killing another being bother him. He is cold and calculating, unable to feel emotions the way normal mortals do.

<br> All Jin'li cares about is acting as a pawn for his master. No matter what he is asked to do, Jin'li will do it.

((Juicy details coming soonish lol))

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Birth and childhood''</div>

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Jin'li was born a slave. As such, his impressions of a person's standing was a very set thing and that he was always lower and must be polite to all non-slaves. He was born sickly. His first master, the slave master of a pleasure house, had the boy know his first women at the age of nine, and his first man at ten. Jin'li's face made him a highly desirable rental among the patrons of this pleasure house and Jin'li's young mind was forever scared by what he endured until he was age 15.
<br>
<br>
At 15, his true master would enter the establishment. For reasons Jin'li never truly understood, the man who was to be his new master took pity on the 15 year old Jin'li and purchased him from the slave owner.
<br>
<br> Jin'li spent over a year seeing one doctor after another, each finding a more serious illness in him. Some even remarked it was a miracle the boy was even still alive and that he would be better off put out of his misery. However, Jin'li's new master refused to do so, and instead began training the boy in the art of shooting and espionage. His master beat and punished the boy harshly. Despite his illness, the young man earned his master's approval and, for this, he was promised to be a useful pawn in his master's plans but that he would never be anything more to his master. Jin'li felt as if he was worth something for the first time in his life. In devotion to his master, Jin'li castrated himself to destroy any urges he might have that would distract him and to make sure he never had to be reminded of the horrible things that had been done to him in the pleasure house.
<br>
<br>
Since that time, Jin'li as been a loyal servant to his master. Nothing is more important to him than his master's will, and he would turn on the empire in a heartbeat if his master ordered him to.

Jin'i is thin and frail for his young age, his illnesses slowly eating away at his body each day. Dark bags are always present under his eyes from never getting enough sleep and his straight hair falls unkempt down around his dark eyes that seem to hold no emotion in them at all. He is very short and the skin that is wrapped around his body is pale and white, though he does not suffer from albinoism. His narrow face isn't unattractive, however, and there was a time when many looked upon his youthful face with lust in their minds. Though time is taking all that from Jin and his body seems to be on a threshold, parts of his physique clinging to the strong, desirable male he once was as the rest wastes away from disease.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">

<br> Jin'li's most notable characteristic is his manners, which border on the obsessive. He is incredibly polite and often requests permission before doing anything. His manners, however, do not change to accommodate the location he is in, instead, always being tailored to his own system of beliefs regarding etiquette.

<br> Jin'li also feel no emotion when it comes to life or death. He knows he will die eventually and so will everyone else. He is a fatalist and holds no fear since he thinks he was killed by those who used his body all those years ago. Threats against his person do not phase him, nor does killing another being bother him. He is cold and calculating, unable to feel emotions the way normal mortals do.

<br> All Jin'li cares about is acting as a pawn for his master. No matter what he is asked to do, Jin'li will do it.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Jin'li was born a slave. As such, his impressions of a person's standing was a very set thing and that he was always lower and must be polite to all non-slaves. He was born sickly. His first master, the slave master of a pleasure house, had the boy know his first women at the age of nine, and his first man at ten. Jin'li's face made him a highly desirable rental among the patrons of this pleasure house and Jin'li's young mind was forever scared by what he endured until he was age 15.
<br>
<br>
At 15, his true master would enter the establishment. For reasons Jin'li never truly understood, the man who was to be his new master took pity on the 15 year old Jin'li and purchased him from the slave owner.
<br>
<br> Jin'li spent over a year seeing one doctor after another, each finding a more serious illness in him. Some even remarked it was a miracle the boy was even still alive and that he would be better off put out of his misery. However, Jin'li's new master refused to do so, and instead began training the boy in the art of shooting and espionage. His master beat and punished the boy harshly. Despite his illness, the young man earned his master's approval and, for this, he was promised to be a useful pawn in his master's plans but that he would never be anything more to his master. Jin'li felt as if he was worth something for the first time in his life. In devotion to his master, Jin'li castrated himself to destroy any urges he might have that would distract him and to make sure he never had to be reminded of the horrible things that had been done to him in the pleasure house.
<br>
<br>
Since that time, Jin'li as been a loyal servant to his master. Nothing is more important to him than his master's will, and he would turn on the empire in a heartbeat if his master ordered him to.

<br>((Askier was part of the Garlean Army the day of the Calamity, and, as a result, was not sent forward in time.))
<br>((Askier is gifted at building explosives))
<br> ((He did try to blow up Ul'dah - see "Saga of the Wind Swept Sands" for details
<br> ((Currently, most think he is dead after the trial. He's definitely not though.))

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Appearance</div>====

((He's too sexy for clothes at the moment so we are getting him shoved into a more presentable description…one with pants…))
<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier is a tall, attractive, 31 years old male, with slight wrinkles starting to be visible around his lips and eyes. His ashen skin stands in stark contrast to the chestnut-brown hair he always styles in a slicked back fashion to keep it out of his eyes. His narrow face is covered in numerous scars and face paint that has no real meaning other than Askier thinks it looks rather awesome on himself. His left eye is shielded from light by a brown leather eye patch as his right eye shimmers a bright gold every time it catches the light.
<br>The miqot'te's body is tall, taller than a fair number of hyur, and his body is taught and muscled from years of military service. Should he be caught without a shirt on, a nasty collection of wicked looking scars cover the left side of his torso, as the result of falling off a chocobo onto a whiskey bottle inside his coat. Scars, scabs, and callouses cover his hands.

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Behavior</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier is a bizarre sort of character, often perceived as both a drunk and naive individual. He is quick to give a smile and even faster to offer to buy someone he has just met a drink as he tells terrible jokes. He feels the most alive when other people around him laugh at something he has done or said. He tries see the best in someone and is fanatically loyal to those he calls his friends, and expects the same dedication from them in return.

<br>Askier will be the first to admit he relies a great deal on luck and refuses to think himself as an intellectual since he has trouble containing his volcanic temper. However, for all his apparent absent-mindedness, he is a reasonably intelligent being, often able to win word games and riddles quickly and can construct explosive devices with relative ease and not lose a limb while doing so.

<br>Askier views the world as one giant experience waiting to happen and that gods, spirits, and mortal races are all subject to no greater end than what they try to achieve for themselves. He believes that everyone acts for reasons that are logical to themselves, and, as such, calling someone good or evil is pointless in Askier's mind. He sees all things as equal and would gladly help out a stranger. But, because there are those that would harm what Askier chooses to care about, he finds no qualms in killing, viewing it as a normal part of being alive and that the act of killing isn't to be viewed as vile, but that the intentions behind the act certainly can.

*''Ven'li Mergrey'' - Deceased. Askier's father was a soldier for the Garlean Empire whose illustrious job was to wrangle up chocobos. His father was also a drunk and was killed by a chocobo stampede when Askier was six.

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Mother''</div>

*''Unknown'' - All Askier knows about his mother is that she gave an infant Askier to his father and then never came back into his life after she left.

*''Saravena Ancariis'' - Askier's younger sister. They share the same father but a different mother. She is an energetic and kind individual and Askier is incredibly loyal to her. However, for nearly two years, she has been locked in a cell, used as leverage by Askier's Garlean superiors to "encourage" him to build his magictek bomb and destroy Ul'dah.

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
((So many people I gots to add still… lol))

*''[[ A'rytiss Edar]]'' - A young miqo'te with a cute face and skilled in the arts of healing. While he seems a bit naive and innocent, Askier finds the male's outlook on life refreshingly innocent. Askier first met the young man the same night he met Delial. Askier found the youth immensely enjoyable to be around and liked knowing a healer he could call on. Since that meeting, there encounters have been sporadic, but A'rytiss as forever earned a place in Askier's memory for the time A'rytiss helped Askier save I'halo's life after the young women slipped and nearly fell off a bridge onto the rocks below, hitting her head as she did so. Th young miqo'te healed her and arranged for another healer to look after her. Since then, Askier often wishes he would run into the younger miqo'te again.

*''[[Delial Grimsong]]'' - A tall, secretive woman Askier first met in Uldah looking for recruits. Askier promised to use his network of spies to find Delial's brother in exchange for her help. Since then, she has become one of his most valued allies. While they don't agree on specific tactics, or Askier's wardrobe, the two share a similar world view and Askier finds her ruthlessness for the sake of family immensely refreshing. He enjoys speaking and joking with her though he knows that she finds him rather naive; but Askier is okay with that. Delial is not the kind of woman you show all your cards to right away.

*''[[I'khalo Belho]]'' - A small, young miqo'te woman. Askier first met her when the young bard was trying to write a song. Needing a muse, Askier acted as one for her. Since then, Askier has taken an older brotherly stance towards her, viewing her as a second sister. She is naive, headstrong, and playful and reminds Askier of himself and his sister when they were young. He is fiercely protective of her but has become distant as of late. I'halo shunned Askier after she learned of his Garlean roots and her reaction still stings when he thinks about it, especially since he tried to give up booze for her.

*''[[Kanaria Galanodel]]'' - A woman who has truly came out of nowhere only to play a large role in Askier's time in Ul'dah. Askier first met her briefly when his Free Company superior, S'honji, was scolding Askier for fighting in public. Askier was polite but left quickly once S'honji was distracted with her. However, Askier encountered her again, discovering she was both easy to talk and dignified, a combination of traits he rarely found together. Askier managed to convince her to help him under the false pretense of being a merchant in need of armed escorts. However, Kanaria, Askier discovered, is an incredibly loyal person, eager to help Askier even after she learned of his true motives. Her honesty and incredible eagerness have confused his emotions for her in his mind and the lines between ally and something more have blurred.

*''[[Grieving Hound]]'' - Askier's closet friend. She is reserved, tall, and bluntly honest to a fault. The two first met when they both applied for the Harbingers of Dawn Free Company on the same day. They decided to patrol the roads near Limsa Lominsa together and keep them safe, destroying several gnoll war parties. There was an instant connection between them and they often drank together, laughing and recalling their adventures. Hound tolerates Askier's excessive drinking and childish antics well, often simply shaking her head and laughing. Askier feels completely relaxed around her, almost too much so. Hound, slowly grew tired of the politics of the Free Company, and left for the mountains. Askier, alone and missing his friend, purchased his now trademark coat and plunged into the swirling snows to find her. There, Askier spent many nights trying to get Hound to come back. Their time in the mountains culminated with them joining a hunting party and killing a dragon. Once the beast was dead, Hound decided it was time to return to the south. Askier seized his chance and convinced Hound to help him destroy Ul'dah. Hound, however, had no plans to do so and saved Siha from Askier's kidnapping attempt and fought against him, leaving Askier confused about their friendship.

*''[[Raven Gorehand]]'' - A tall,female summoner with a powerful affinity for magic and a friend of both Hound and Askier. Raven and Askier were simple aquaintances for a long time until he needed help. Raven surprised him with her eagerness to help him, participating in several attempts on Kahn'a's life. Her ability to slip from reserved woman to wicked fiend with ease makes her a terrific ally for Askier and he values her and her powers immensely.

====<div style="font-family: segoe ui semibold;font-size: 9pt; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 2pt; border-top: 1px solid black;">Enemies</div>====

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 11pt;">
((Got a few of these too))

*''[[Adin Adonis]]'' Askier's Employer and former commanding officer inside the Imperial Military.

*''[[Jin'li Epinoch]]'' Adin's slave and prize operative. The kit suffers from numerous disease and is very scikyl, but is a lethal shot with a gunblade. It was Jin'li who watched over Askier's siter for two years and helped Askier ship in his needed magitek parts. Askier hates the male with a burning passion and wishes to kill Jin'li should they ever meet again.

*''[[Erik Mynhier]]'' - The Red Wings Unit Captain. Askier first approached him planning on toying with him and setting up a game of cat and mouse between the two. He had heard rumors of Erik's delight of challenges and hoped that by setting up a system of rules with the man, his plot would succeed with ease since he viewed Erik's network of agents as the only true threat to his operation. However, Askier discovered he and Erik were kindred spirits and, to his own surprise, found himself liking the man, who even honestly said, they could have been friends if it hadn't been for Askier's desire to destroy Ul'dah.

*''[[Kahn'a Od'hilkas]]'' - A member of the Red Wings and, in Askier's mind, a male with a mythical knight quality. More so then even Erik, Kahn'a proved during "Saga of the Wind Swept Sands" to be Askier's greatest challenge, something he had never expected. Unlike Erik, who Askier was able to influence with thoughts of games and rules, Kahn'a stands resilient to Askier's tact. Dogmatic, loyal, headstrong and blunt, Kahn'a repeatedly disrupted Askier's plans; not through sheer brilliance but by simple perseverance. But any spiteful feelings for Kahn'a have evaporated. Askier feels a deep connection to Kahn'a since the male not only saved his sister, but was willing to put his life and his reputation on the line by helping Askier fake his own death by acting as Askier's killer. Askier wishes to pay his debt to Kahn'a above all the rest because he feels as if he owes Kahn'a the most for all the hardship he put him through, and because he desires to be around him.

*''[[Osric Melkire]]'' - A Flame Sergeant midlander Hyur. At one point in time, Askier though the man was beneath thinking about, having broken Osric's knee and finding his fighting to be sub-par. However, that all changed the day Osric returned Saravena to him. Over time, Askier has come to see that it is Osric is far more influential than his rank would lead one to believe. Osric planned out how to fake Askier's death and save those Kahn'a cares for the most, and, by doing so, has forever made Askier in the hyur's debt whether he wishes it or not.

*''[[Siha Xinkei]]'' - Captain Mynhier's adopted sister. Siha is a very sweet Moonkeeper who Askier met for the first time at Erik's ball. Askier charmed the young woman easily, making her smile and asking her to dance as he pretended to be a simple merchant, realizing she was the perfect leverage again Erik, should something go wrong with his plan. His desire to abduct the young woman was, in fact, encouraged by Erik should Askier succeed in his plan, but her kidnapping went badly. Askier enjoys her company and her polite manners. He doesn't find her to be nearly as threatening as Erik.

((Juicy details coming soonish lol))

<div style="font-family: cambria, arial, verdana; font-size: 14pt; margin: 0 0 15px 0;">''Birth and childhood''</div>

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier was born in the Garlean Empire to Ven'li and a female he knows nothing about. His mother stuck around long enough to birth him and recover before leaving Askier with his father. Ven'li was stationed in an open plan and was responsible for taming chocobos. Ven'li was a distant father and Askier only remembers him from his smell of booze. Askier's sister, Saravena, was born five years after he was to another female. Askier's father was killed when Askier was six. Askier was sent to live with his father's brother, who was a woodcutter near a river.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
For the next 10 years, Askier and Saravena lived relatively uneventful lives. They helped their uncle deforest large swathes of the land to send the lumber down river for the Garlean war machine and learned simple schooling from traveling scholars.
<br>This simple life was violently interrupted when a group of anti-imperial soldiers assaulted the camp and burned many of the workes and the woods in an attempt to hurt the lumber supply to the Garlean military. Askier and Saravena escaped but their uncle was lost in the flames.
<br>Lost, the pair eventually reached a city. There starving, and forced with some unpleasant options, Askier enlisted to serve the army to earn money for his little sister to eat.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Askier would spend the next four years being bounced around from one tour of duty to the next. During that time, he took to learning about magitek and started messing around with spare parts he stole. He discovered he was rather good with making random parts work together and his tinkering eventually caught the eye of an officer in the engineering branch. The officer had Askier transferred to his unit and Askier quickly excelled in his new job, causing a good amount of interest amongst the military brass when it came to new explosive devices. One such device of Askier's was loaded aboard a Garlean airship and was planned on being us the day of the Calamity, destroying his device before it could be detonated.

At seeing the immense power of the primal that day, Askier deserted his post, concerned only with keeping his sister safe. He returned home and fled with her south till they came to Eorzea, where they lived as traveling mercenaries for three years.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
Life as a freelance mercenary was good for Askier and Saravena. They travelled and used their coin to live well. Askier began drinking more and more heavily during this time, much to the concern of his sister, who was unable to stop him. Askier used the money he made to keep his sister well taken care off as he spent the left over research what few books he could afford, trying to better himself.

Askier also tried to put his past behind him, and, while he still continued to study bomb making with the few books he could find written about magitek, it was simply for academic reasons.

He was enjoying his life and considered himself extremely lucky.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">
But the good luck ran out. Askier was recognized by a Garlean spy near Ul'dah and, after tailing Askier, came up with a plan. He forces Askier to build another bomb, in Ul'dah. Askier refused initially but the agent took Askier's sister hostage and made the demand: "destroy Ul'dah or she dies". Askier gave in immediately for his sister and has been working on building his bomb for over a year and a half, shipping in the needed parts slowly and piece by piece to avoid attention.

<p style="line-height: 170%; margin: 10px 0 10px 0; text-indent: 20px;">

((Askier's IC summary of Saga of the Wind Swept Sands"))<br><br>
To whomever finds this, This may be my last time sitting down to write, and I will be considering this as my last testament. The purpose of this testament is to chronicle the past two years, and, more specifically, the past few weeks that have led to me sitting in this cell.<br><br>

I begin when Saravena was taken, as that was the catalyst for all of this. Saravena and I had been wandering and working as mercenaries for the three years after my desertion from the Empire following the calamity.
It was a good life. However, my drunkenness proved our undoing. Like my father, the drink is my vice and I was drunk and loud too often back then. A servant of my former captain during my years in service to the Empire, hence forth referred to as “my employer”, recognized me. I do not know how long they followed after us, or planned, but they struck without warning. Saravena found a knife to her throat and I with a choice many say should have been harder to make than I found it to be. I agreed to save Saravena’s life by destroying Ul’dah with a bomb of my own creation.<br><br>

For the next two years, I moved in secret, slowing shipping in my needed parts a few at a time to keep myself from drawing unwanted attention to myself. I joined the Harbingers of Dawn during this time, hoping to find companionship to distract my mind from what I was doing. Although I found most inside the Free Company to be as full of schemes as I, I did find a few genuine companions, though only one I felt comfortable telling everything to, which I did. Hound, I know you cannot read and I apologize for lying to you about me not being able to do so for so long, but if this should ever be read aloud to you, know you are more than a friend, you are family.<br><br>

Hound hinted I should stop and try to find another way, but I dismissed her. What could the two of us do against “my employers” shadows? I was afraid and continued on, though I regret now not heeding her.<br><br>

I was allowed to see my sister during these two years on rare occasions. Always at a location “my employer’s” slave, Jin’li, picked, and only for a few moments. I began to grow impatient, wanting her back.I started making ripples in my haste.
Ripples Erik Mynhier began to detect. I realized this and grew angry. I was too close. So I made a move that, in hindsight, saved both Saravena and all of Ul’dah: I confronted Erik.<br><br>

Erik, should you see this, know that I have always judged a leader by how his enemies view him and his men revere him. 'A friend to all' is the title I bestow upon you. I came to you, trying to trick you into playing this game by my rules, to bend you to my will. But even then you showed me respect as I revealed half-truths to you. I should have realized then, when you let me walk away, that you had already won. You had already placed your prize pieces upon the board,<br><br>

Kahn'a Od'hilkas and Osric Melkire.<br><br>

Erik, I don’t know how many moves ahead of me you were or how you intercepted Jin’li’s letter to me, but you played it all so well. There I stood, in Vesper Bay, waiting for the shipping manifest from Jin’li that would reveal where I was to find the final three parts for my device. I recall how my allies and Delial Grimsong… I do not call Delial an ally because she is something more, a schemer as great as myself and as close a friend as one can have with such a dangerous creature. She was using me to help her own ends as much as she aided me out of a kindred bond to save our siblings. I have digressed.<br><br>

There we stood, with the manifest in hand, my eyes reading over it greedily, when Kahn’a and his allies attacked us. Looking back, I realize just how far Kahn’a has come since Vesper Bay. Back then he was just a scared kit while now he… during Vesper Bay, he was no real threat. The only reason I lost the manifest was a result of the hyur the woman, Daphine, smashing my eye with her book and Osric attacking my flank while I recoiled in pain. Osric certainly would have captured me and ended it all then and there had my chocobo, Drumstick, not come to my aid.<br><br>

After Vesper Bay, I nursed my wounds in secret. Delial did what she could for me, but my eye never healed properly, and even now, bright light causes it to weep blood profusely. I wanted revenge and so I hunted for it during the week until my last three parts would arrive. I found Kahn’a in an alley and thrashed him violently, hoping that my assault would stop Kahn’a for good. Instead, my violence caught the eye of my Harbinger of Dawn superior, S’honji, and his friend at the time, Kanaria Galanodel. Eager for more guards to help me recover my packages, I lied to them both, pleading for help recovering my shipments for “my employer” saying they were harmless artifacts. S’honji immediately mistrusted me, but Kanaria seemed to be eager to help a man in need. <br><br>

My allies gathered at the “Coffin and Coffer”, being Delial,Hound, Siha, Kanaria, and S’honji. Everything should have been easy. We split into two parties. Delial, Kanaria and Shonji went to The Silver Bazaar. Hound, Siha, and I went to Crescent Cove.<br><br>

But Hound betrayed me.<br><br>

Just as I had recovered my second part and planned to kidnap Siha, Kahn’a arrived. Hound then stepped forward and raised her axe against me. Outnumbered four-to-one, I was forced to swim for it with my part. Wet and half-naked, I rendezvoused back in Ul’dah with Delial’s team where we secured the two parts we had recovered and then proceeded to location number three, the graveyard near Camp Drybone. Osric,Hound, Siha, Kah’na, Daphine, and Jana were waiting for us. After a standoff, we came to blows, though it was my party that was forced to yield, all of us bloodied and beaten, save Kanaria, who proved to be a more dangerous combatant then I had ever expected,certainly more than S’honji, who fell to Osric’s blows swiftly. I broke Osric’s knee before fleeing on Drumstick once more, a battered Delial thrown unceremoniously across my saddle.
<br><br>

That night, I finished the bomb, even without the third part. As my lethal creation hummed intolife and the sinister glow burned into my eye, I will admit I felt pride at all I had accomplished. I had almost, single-handedly, done the impossible, something the might of the entire Imperial military had not been able to do: I had Ul’dah by the throat. In that moment, I was akin to Bahamut, a force of sheer destruction unable to be stopped. The timer on my bomb was ticking and would detonate in one week.<br><br>

Then my heart sank and my stomach twisted into knots as I realized, without a shred of doubt, I didn’t want to go through with my plan. The reality of what setting the device off would do, and what would happen to Saravena if I didn't let it go off, slammed into me. Depressed and confused, I started to drown my emotions in alcohol.<br><br>

For the next week, a war raged inside my mind, part of me playing the demon. I encountered Kahn’ain the streets of Ul’dah and my companion Raven and I tormented him, trying to break him of his will to fight. But I saw in his eyes he wasn’t afraid anymore. He was fighting back and I felt fear. I began to grow confused, and in my confusion, I acted, proceeding in an action that had repercussions in my mind and added fuel to my doubt. I might have even killed Kahn’a at that moment had Kanaria not intervened. I left, my mind wrapped in the fog of doubt and no amount of fiery liquor could burn the fog away.<br><br>

My conscious rose up in me, begging me to seek help. But from who? Hound had betrayed me and it would be some time till we mended our relationship. I thought I was alone again.<br><br>

I wasn’t. I know now that Kanaria was working with Kahn’a, but she found me sitting on some crates and managed to wring the truth of my goals and who I was from my lips without a bit of force. I was so desperate and wracked by guilt I needed to confess. Kanaria’s response amazed me. She did not shun me, but offered to help me to the bitter end. I left her, still confused but with the realization I wasn’t alone. I wanted to see Kanaria again, to talk to someone. She used this desire to break down my defenses and convinced me to meet with Kahn’a and Osric. During the meeting, I gave them a copy of the book I had written on explosive magitek as a token of good will. In return, Osric offered a plan:
<br><br>

Ask "my employer” to let me see my sister one last time, but instead of me going, he would and free my sister while I waited with my bomb, swearing to disarm it the moment Saravena was safe.<br><br>

That night, after the meeting, as I drank by the light of my bomb, I smiled. I remember it. For the first time in a long time, I saw a light at the end of this tunnel and it wasn’t a light of destruction.<br><br>

But the truce nearly failed.<br><br>

I had gathered my allies and Delial, still not entirely trusting Kahn’a and Osric. Kahn’a arrived with his troops and my mind immediately took it as betrayal but I waited. I was willing to humor them as they looked on at my bomb with terror. But then I heard Kahn’a say the words that broke my will that night. He looked straight at me and uttered: “Saravena is dead, Askier.”<br><br>

My mind snapped, I started dancing around, cackling, wanting to kill everyone and everything, wanting to set off the bomb, and I know I would have, had Kanaria not held me back. My allies and Delial refused to fight, they heard Kahn’a as he tried to explain Saravena was, in fact, still alive; that Osric had saved her after all. In my grief I failed to hear, and I was shot by Kahn’a’s arrow. After that, I remember very little as Daphine drugged me. But I know the bomb was disarmed and I was taken to this cell, where I have resided this past week, thinking.<br><br>

I was visited later by Kanaria and Kahn’a, who brought in an unconscious Saravena and placed her in my arms. Osric had kept up his end of the bargain, though they had almost lost her. I confess I wept for hours, both relieved that she was safe again after two years and ashamed for nearly breaking my end of the truce.<br><br>

But Jin’li isn’t done with me it seems. He still lives and conspires for “my employer.” If I ever see that runt again, I’ll sink my teeth into his throat and tear it out. Kahn’a and Osric tell me that Kahn’a is being forced to play a game for“my employer” much like the one I was forced to, though this time, it is not Ul’dah he wants destroyed, it is me for failing him and letting Osric make a fool out of him. <br><br>

I feel no hatred for Osric, Kanaria, or Kahn’a. Rather I view them as family. They simply tried to keep what they cared for safe and they were willing to help out a total stranger and his sister while doing so. How could I ever judge someone for that? Kahn’a especially has gone from my greatest foe to something I find myself surprised by. Raven, Kanaria, Osric, Hound, Kahn’a, Vali,even you Delial, I owe you all a debt I can never repay but will try.<br><br>

I have one last scheme to play. One, that if all goes well, will free me forever from this madman, though the price will by high for some near to me, but they have agreed and once again I am left in awe of their selflessness. I will stand trial soon and accept my punishment, be it acceptable to me. S’honji plans to convict me and execute me, but I have no plan on dying. Not until I return “my employer” for his years of kindness.<br><br>

In conclusion, I did not write this for pity or forgiveness. In truth, part of me will always be proud of what I have accomplished, though I am grateful that I never had to set off my device. No, I write this so that, no matter how history remembers me, there will always be a record from my own pen that proves that I am nothing more than a simple Garlean miqot’e, whom was fallible, foolish, and devoted to those he loves.<br><br>

Askier went to trial for his crimes during the "Saga of the Wind Swept" but he went to live and be free, not suffer S'honji's punishment.

Kahn'a was confronted by Jin'li and forced to play the very game Askier had been. This time, however, Askier was the target, and those Kahn'a cared about most were the hostages. Kahn'a came to Osric and Kanaria and told them, and the three worked out a way to trick Jin'li and free Askier from Jin'li's master. They would fake Askier's death in front of everyone. Askier was asked to trust Kahn'a to shoot at hi with the gunblade Jin'li had given him. Askier, seeing the young male forced to make the same type of choice he was and realizing the risk Kahn'a was taking to spare his life, agreed without hesitation, having come to trust Kahn'a, Kanaria, and Osric completely. The only other person who was to know was Saravena. During the trial, Askier stood mostly silent, letting those who would speak for him do so. They added to the plan. Then Askier stepped forward, giving Kahn'a a shot he couldn't miss. The other male took it and hit the metal covering they had slipped under Askier's shirt. Askier flew backwards into Osric, who pinched a set of nerves, sending Askier into a state of near death. To add to the effect, Askier bit a whole in his tongue to let blood ooze out. Osric rushed Askier away and revived him, though the bruising from the shot forced Askier to limp. Osric escorted Askier to an airship and sent him to Limsa. Askier, in immense pain, passed out aboard the ship, a free man for the first time in years.

'''Chief Sergeant Osric Melkire''' (born 11th Sun of the 3rd Astral Moon) is a Lominsan native who found his way to Ul'dah in search of refuge and employment. Driven from his home at the age of twenty, he stowed away on the first ferry to Vesper Bay and was immediately arrested upon arrival. His plea for asylum in exchange for lifetime enlistment with the Immortal Flames was granted; that he bore with him a letter of introduction from a former officer didn't hurt matters, either.

Five years later, Osric now views Ul'dah as his home and has pledged himself to the Jewel of the Desert.

'''Chief Sergeant Osric Melkire''' (born 11th Sun of the 3rd Astral Moon) is a Lominsan native who found his way to Ul'dah in search of refuge and employment. Driven from his home at the age of twenty, he stowed away on the first ferry to Vesper Bay and was immediately arrested upon arrival. His plea for asylum in exchange for lifetime enlistment with the Immortal Flames was granted; that he bore with him a letter of introduction from a former officer didn't hurt matters, either.

Five years later, Osric now views Ul'dah as his home and has pledged himself to the Jewel of the Desert.

Now Merlwyb, she grants Melkire one last request, as per the Lominsan custom, and Melkire, he challenges the General to <i>single combat</i>. Says if he wins, Raubahn's honor-bound to save his life. And the Bull, he <i>accepted</i>, and Melkire, he <i>won</i>. So Raubahn holds up his end, see, beats the Admiral's hundred-man crew senseless and kicks Merlwyb herself back into the sea. Aye, that's how it happened, and don't let anyone tell you different." -- ''Trachtoum the Tidus Slayer''
