Explorer extraordinaire, K'heyo Tia, at your service! Specializing in sight-seeing, slacking off, and getting hopelessly lost. Proud leader of the Wild Lotus Host Club (whenever it's convenient for him, that is).

Basic Info

An adventurer at heart, with an unquenchable thirst for exploring the vast realm of Eorzea, K'heyo goes wherever his heart (and his feet) may take him. He is a "Tia" Miqo'te from the South Shroud's Hipparion Tribe, but has defected from the tribe and its traditions in order to pursue his love of traveling.

Twenty-six calendar years of being alive has seen K'heyo with many different jobs and allegiances. K'heyo has been a vagrant, a mercenary (and still is, within his company), a performer of odd-jobs, all amongst many other things. He was born in Gridania and, as such, holds some sort of reverence and soft spot for the city-state; however, his livelihood as a now free-company leader has led him to a more common presence roaming about Ul'Dah.

His guardian is Oschon, the Wanderer. Oschon is neither his name month deity, nor his tribe's chosen god. Instead, K'heyo's faith in Oschon was his conscious choice when he left his homeland and began exploring. Despite all of this, K'heyo is not very faith-driven but will visit the occasional altar to offer up a prayer if there happens to be one nearby.

IC-ly, K'heyo does possess the Echo, albeit his bond with Hydaelyn is far weaker than most "Warriors of Light." In fact, he may not even be fully awakened to or aware of this power that he possesses. When Hydaelyn used her power to prevent him from being stillborn, the Echo's power was absorbed deep within K'heyo to aid in giving him life (see Early Childhood section of bio). As such, episodes as a result of the Echo happen rarely, if ever, to K'heyo.

Appearance & Personality

APPEARANCE:

Like most members of his tribe, K'heyo is slender and lithe in build. He is irregularly tall for a Miqo'te by most standards. His muscles are visible, but not overbearing. He's built for speed and quick reactions, as is necessary for Miqo'te who choose to make the dark wilderness of the Shroud their home. His fingernails are long and are kept sharpened to a fine point; it's a habit that he never quite grew out of after departing from his tribe. The white tribal tattoos upon his right cheekbone consist of curling, wispy strokes that almost look like feathers. He bears similar tattoos on both arms that begin at the wrist and end just below his elbow. The tattoos are a tradition in his tribe and are added to as Tias age. Additionally, K'heyo bears a scar that crosses over his right eye. He received it as a young child while embarking upon a forbidden excursion alone to the Sanctum of the Twelve. A wild boar ambushed him, but he escaped with nothing more than this wound after a fellow tribe member rescued him. K'heyo tends to wear more revealing clothes or can even be seen meandering around topless. He dislikes anything that inhibits his movement or that he dubs to be 'uncomfortable.' He is almost always wearing his trademark red-and-white feather hairpin.

PERSONALITY:

Upon first encounter K'heyo may seem like a heart-on-his-sleeve kind of guy, but don't let that fool you! There are plenty of personality traits that this flippant feline possesses that make him quite the dynamic conversation partner. Prone to loud and boisterous banter, K'heyo is often found at more lively places. He enjoys the finer things in life (and, by that, I mean alcohol and pretty men/ladies). With that being said, he's a flatterer and a gentleman who should really watch his romantic mouth more closely before he gets himself in trouble. Sly and mischievous, K'heyo isn't above speaking his mind, pulling pranks, or getting on anyone's bad side if he disagrees greatly with someone. He's not shy, by any means. Despite seeming like an obnoxious protagonist, the Seeker has a heart of gold and would do just about anything for his friends... if he likes them enough. What? I mean, of COURSE he'd help them out!

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing ♥ K'hatos Tia : A dancer at the Ruby Carbuncle Hotel whom K'heyo first encountered in the Quicksand. The two spoke a bit and quickly became friendly acquaintances. Things progressed from that point, up until they eventually became mates. K'heyo likes to spend time with him, especially to watch his dancing routines. ● Cecillia Garmont : A hot-headed and independent woman who serves as second-in-command of the Wild Lotus Host Club. She and K'heyo's personalities clash greatly the majority of the time, but they put up with each other and, on rare occasions, even seem to enjoy each others' company.
