Basics

Server: Balmung

Name: X'vett Nunh (Pronounced She-vet-th )

Age: 27

Height: 5'8.2"

Appearance: Muscular in frame, though he's not overly bulky as he isn't excessively physically strong. He has long auburn hair that reaches past his shoulders, and light tan skin. He is strongest at his arms, back and shoulders as he works with a bow and arrow most often, though he has been known to dabble in white and black magics.

Freckles cover his face and body, as well as a couple of small scars on his left cheek from a bad run in with a wolf while hunting.

He recently lost his right leg from the mid thigh down due to a run in with a cannibal craving a good steak, and using his trust and friendship against him, he lured Vett into his home and took the cut of meat he wanted. Because of this, Vett is fairly nervous around Roegadyns.

He paid a hefty fine for a blacksmith to fashion him a new leg that was lightweight and functional, as well as easy to hide. He took some time to pretty it up to make himself feel better, figuring that if it was more ascetically pleasing it wouldn't be as depressing. He can still feel his leg there from time to time, and will often scratch and itch or try to move his toes, which brings him near to tears when he is reminded his leg isn't there.

He is hesitant to tell his tribe about this disability of his, because he's afraid a Tia will use it against him to take his place and they won't truly be worthy of the title and responsibility.

Interests: X'vett takes great interest in Archery and song, as well as white magic. He has also become quite the skilled goldsmith, though rarely practises it unless he is making something for a friend.

Personality

Vett has many sides to his personality, all depending on where he is, who he is with, as well as his comfort level. Most often, he is fairly calm and easy to get along with, however he doesn't try to hide his bad traits when something rubs him the wrong way.

He can be territorial, especially about his home and tribe.

He takes peoples word very seriously, as well as sets strict boundaries with others and won't associate himself with liars. He's still learning to take a joke as a joke, since he used to see them as petty lies. He'll make jokes from time to time, however, now that he's learnt they aren't true lies, just exaggerations and the like.

Often times in the city, he comes off as awkward. He'll stand near ten feet off of someone, especially women, when speaking to them. He will only enter this little bubble he puts them in when invited to do so. Even with friends, he does this. Good friends however have no personal space around him.

He finds it hard to trust those from the city, and it takes time for him to warm up to them, but he has been trying to take time to learn more about the lives of many in the city so he can better understand a few friends he has.

Once he becomes close to someone, he becomes protective over them, and takes extra care of their needs. He will often track them down via scent just to see them and check up on them.

Vett becomes extremely uncomfortable about his Nunh title in the city, however, as on multiple occasions it was assumed he was a sex fiend and only became Nunh because he wanted to satisfy animalistic urges. This lead him to rarely saying his title to those in the city, unless he's sure that they will not judge, belittle, or misunderstand him and his place in the tribe.

Vett is very affectionate with those he grows close to, and it can be hard to get him to leave you alone. Sometimes, however, he can become a little possessive and territorial when someone makes his friends uncomfortable or otherwise just steps into their space without permission.

He can come off as playful, and gets extremely happy and a little goofy when either drunk or in times where he is fulfilling tribal duties.

Toward the Tia in his tribe, he is fairly respectful as well. He wants to see them rise to be better, as well as with the women in the tribe. As such, he usually treats them in a brotherly way, picking at them, sharing his wisdom, or just helping them grow as an individual. Just because they are Tia, doesn't mean they are lesser than he is, and he believes this fully. One day, one of them is going to surpass him, and he's going to make damned sure they are worthy of the title.

A strong tribe means everyone is strong, not just one or two members. If he can better anyone, he will try. If not, he will be there to try and guide them.

Tribal info

Vett's tribe lives East of Camp Drybone and in the Shroud near Gridania. Where a Goobbue rests and nourishes the plantlife is where Vett lives, though he visits in the Shroud to see the rest of his family. Spreading their territory lead to Thanalan, and Vett followed to follow the sun there. It was too rainy in the Shroud for him, though he found Thanalan was no different. Mainly, they hunt the Aldgoat surrounding the area, and less often have to slay the hounds to preserve their own food source.

There are multiple Nunh in Vett's tribe, and it is the tribeswoman's job to choose her Nunh when she wants to mother a child. Vett has five children so far(four girls and one boy), while the others who have been Nunh longer than he has have quite a few more.

Before the mating, Vett will leave and hunt down the biggest, strongest Aldgoat he can to provide a feast for the woman who chose him, as well as the other tribe members if they choose to partake. He also brings back gifts to her, such as jewels or jewelry.

When she is ready, the two will ask the sun, and Azeyma, for luck in the pregnancy, health of mother and child, and success at birth.

He takes special care to make sure they are comfortable, and will go out of his way to make her so. He can sometimes be a goof, wrestling with his mate and losing, telling jokes, laughing, and the like. He always feels honoured that he was chosen to father a child, as it is a huge privilege and compliment to him.

Vett stays with the mother throughout pregnancy, and will be present for the birth. Often, he is the one to name the child, though it's not uncommon for the mother to want another name. He usually looks for approval before coming to a final decision.

He doesn't get much time away from the tribe, however, since he has a responsibility to the tribe first and foremost. He gets little day passes, though, near three times a week as do the other Nunhs, to go and do as they please so long as they return before sunset.

X'vett has a massive respect for the land he lives on, as well as those he lives with.

Within the tribe, it's not uncommon for members to knock their foreheads together in a friendly, affectionate manner. It's a respectful, trusting gesture, and means close to "you are part of my heart". Between friends, it's like a hug or greeting, often a simple knock of foreheads.

This becomes more close and affectionate when one prolongs the action by nuzzling, or pressing their foreheads together, especially with their eyes closed as it's a huge sign of respect and trust between one another. This is usually used for scent marking as well.

Vett became Nunh like many others had, he challenged the one before him and came out victorious. He challenged him not only because he wanted to have children, but also because the previous Nunh was a poor example at best. He made it known he was going to challenge him, and a few of the women who he had upset went to Vetts side to support him. X'vett won because he was cunning, not due completely to physical strength. He outwit X'nato and won in a fair fight. He refused to kill him, and instead brought him to surrender.

Values

Honesty is the biggest thing Vett values, and as such, he will never tell a lie with ill intent.

He also holds true to his word and promises, and will never go back on them without reason.

Family. His family means the most to him in the world, and he would easily give his life to protect them.

Tradition. He holds true to old traditions, and wants to keep the tribe life alive.

Vett values others, and no matter what, if he is gifted something he will cherish it and make use of it simply because someone thought he'd like it. Doesn't mean he does, but because someone gave it to him, he loves it all the same.

Azeyma The Warden

X'vett holds a very dear place in his heart and entire life to Azeyma. He often feels lost and unprotected when the sun isn't out, and over long periods of bad weather he can easily get really down emotionally.

When the sun is shining, he doesn't like wearing a lot of clothes as he doesn't like blocking Azeyma's warmth. The sunlight is like a little hug from Azeyma herself, and Vett cherishes it. When the sun isn't out, he feels disconnected from her and often worries that the sun just won't come back and Azeyma has left them. He has an understanding that everything revolves around Azeyma and the sun, and it keeps them alive, fed, and healthy.

He gets up every morning to enjoy the sunrise, and will often 'sing the sun to sleep' when nightfall comes. It brings him peace in the time where Azeyma is gone, and he believes that song will bring her right back to them in morning.

Free Company

Vett joined a free company in hopes he would be able to better understand the world around him and in turn, better understand his friends, particularly Iggnasse. He's become friends with quite a few of the members, and even has private chambers at their company house that he never sleeps in. Mostly it's there because he wanted something totally his, where he can relax and do as he pleases.

So far, the Free Company has taught him a lot about the world, and had inspired him to take up magic and play around with it, though he quickly discovered he was quite good at it and continues to learn and practice.

He is still quite confused about the issues going on around him, but he at least knows what's going on now rather than only being concerned with his tribe and new home. He now knows that in order to protect them, he NEEDS to be aware of the world around him and be prepared for anyone or anything invading his home and hurting his family.

Relationships

X'vett is technically allowed to have relationships outside of the tribe, however, he is not allowed to procreate. He has a hard time making relationships outside of the tribe anyway, because most often others don't understand the rules and traditions, or are just not okay with the fact that he will continue to have mates within his tribe (only because he is Nunh, no actually relationships are had so far in the tribe). He usually doesn't get his hopes up, and sticks to trying to simply make friends instead, and if it goes somewhere, then it does. He never actively looks.

He has a very select few friends, as it is hard to really trust others outside of the tribe for him unless he is given good reason. He has many acquaintances that he respects and holds dear, however aren't quite 'friends' yet.

Astro Mortim: He has only recently become close friends with Astro, and is still warming up to her. She holds a place in his heart now, however, as she was the first he had gone to in need to talk over how he felt when he lost his leg. He trusts her fully, and holds a great deal of respect for her.

Iggnasse Arbeau: Vett really didn't like him when they first met, as he came off as intrusive, selfish, and a liar. In time, he has warmed up to him and has become quite fond of him, even building an emotional relationship with him. Recently, they had a bit of a wordless fight, and Vett hasn't seen him since.

X'kohu Tia: X'kohu is a close member of the tribe to Vett, and he has massive amounts of respect and love for him. He treats him like a younger brother, despite them being around the same age. He tries to guide and protect him when needed, but that isn't often as X'kohu is quite clever. If anyone were to surpass him, X'vett would want it to be Kohu.

S'vett Tia: Even Vett doesn't know why they are such close friends, but they just are. Often when they get together it's a disaster, such as when Astro and Nasse's drinks were drugged and the two didn't know how to help them and made a scene. Overall, Vett teases him quite a bit all in good intentions, and they build a small, but strong bond with each other.

Tyrenna Ulfrang: Vett met her in the Quicksand not too long ago, and despite the vast differences in their lives, they walk the same path in life and hold many of the same values. She quickly became a friend to him, and he holds a lot of respect for her.
