 === The Character (summary): ===
 <p>James Reaper is a short tempered botanist who works out of the guild in Gridania. He lives in the lavender beds in a small apartment with his partner Margret, as well as a more recent addition of a brightly coloured miqo'te. An incredibly private man, he tends to keep mostly to himself and engulfs himself in his work and research with the guild and has many patches of various flora scattered around the shroud that he refuses to let other botanists harvest from.
-</p><p>Despite being so harsh and rude at times, he is a well respected and knowledgeable botanist within the guild after over a decade of work and study. Recently he has taken to expanding himself further by joining Nal, a company run by a wealthy lalafellen man. He works there as an accountant on call, and he has decided to continue to work with that company. His main source of income is botany, however the extra income and working on call with Nal has been a welcomed boost to his gil.

Another, a straight, deep surgery scar down the length of his spine. He also has triad numbers carved into his chest, and anyone who's savvy on triad, it is the Spriggan card.

He almost always has flowers in his hair, on his clothes, around his neck or worn in specially made earrings.

He doesn't speak much with his hands or with much facial expression, though when riled, scared, or angry, he tends to pace and emote more.

-</p><p>He had seldom or never been seen outside of the house as a child, often only leaving to go run about the foliage or go to school, or to sneak off for lessons in music. Orphaned at 16 summers, he dropped out of school and had quickly taken up botany as a profession as a way to make gil and keep himself off of the streets. However, he still ended up homeless through those years of study and apprenticeship. He was glad to find that his interest in botany and the natural world he had growing up was still very much alive, and had totally engulfed himself in his studies from then to the current day.
+</p><p>Despite being so harsh and rude at times, he is a well respected and knowledgeable botanist within the guild after over a decade of work and study. Recently he has taken to expanding himself further by joining Nal, a company run by a wealthy lalafellen man. He works there as an accountant on call, and he has decided to continue to work with that company. His main source of income is botany, however the extra income and working on call with Nal has been a welcomed boost to his gil.
