His father does not take pride in discussing their family background for a number of reasons--his would-be wife and mother of his son being at the top of that list. In the past, the one chiefly credited as being Rahferu's father was a fierce warrior who was rumored to have draconic heritage largely due to his build which was burlier and taller than many other fully-grown Raen men, although this has yet to be confirmed by the latter. Akasha had been deceived--by a a self-interested demoness, no less. She revealed her true nature and whisked off as soon as she was professedly 'with child', taunting the supposed new father with thoughts of his own 'son' growing up to be a monster who would one day surpass her in strength. Later on, the unnatural mother fled too goodness knows where with a newborn(or rather, newly-created) youngster in tow--far from where the one who believed himself to be the child's father ever had hopes of finding his son. Iregaios created a son (with the help of a few unsavory characters, dark rituals, genetic tampering and Allagan technology)--with the hope that she would create another monster. However, she soon fell prey to the warm tendrils of affection that began to well up within her whenever she interacted with the unnatural youngster. Indeed, this child was going to be absolutely perfect--her match, in both beauty and strength. It was a shame that he hadn't taken all of her features--but in her eyes, he was still quite the boy!

Appearance
Rahferu is an extremely effeminate, youthful-looking man with a compact build and a lissome carriage. He has a number of slightly offsetting traits that seem to offer dispute to him being an Au Ra. Some of the aforementioned traits are arguably more desirable than others--including a remarkably voluptuous lower half. His hips are wide and suspiciously curvy; and undeniably fall under that 'thick thighs' category. His legs are long, slender and shapely with oddly delicate ankles (it can be noted as well that his wrists are also quite small.) Rah's eyes are large and have an exotic almond-shape, with irises of a corsucating violet color and birdlike pupils that rest under an array of dark feathery lashes and heavy lids. He does not wear eyeliner or makeup of any sort, but it certainly seems like he does as first glance. Those who have a roving, perhaps more perverse eye may note that his rounded, soft backside is likely something any high-paid burlesque dancer or voyeur would readily covet as their own. His hands are rather small and well-kept; featuring very long, elegant fingers that are tipped with curved golden talons which taper into dangerously sharp points. Rah's immaculate features look as if they could just easily belong to a woman--that is, until he grins. His smile is lent by a pair of full, somewhat doll-like lips that seem to perpetually glisten with a faint pearly tinge are the only barrier between a set of massive, serrated teeth that are far too large and thick to suggest normality. His tongue is also pierced rarely-witnessed spherical stud of clear red crystal.
Rahferu generally tries not to show teeth when smiling on account of this, as the dentalia serve as a sinister hint toward his origin. The scale plating that runs down his back hosts a line of jagged, vertebrae-like protrusions that become larger and more pronounced around the middle of his spine. The majority of Rahferu's scales seem to have a faint golden-grey shine, but there are a few patches that seem to have more of a slate grey color with darker linework about their ridges. His barbed, plated tail is also extraordinarily long. This, in addition to manner in which his scales are patterned and the direction the plating seems to face toward strongly nuance traits found amongst many voidsent creatures.
His hair cascades nearly to the floor in length, and is a stunning platinum blonde or a shimmering off-white, depending on how the light hits it. It looks to be shiny, soft and especially well-cared for. His complexion is pure; unmarred and unblemished, roughly equating to a rosy chocolate in color--or a blood red under the Ul'dahn sun, as professed by some. Rah is almost always seen walking around with a slightly sad, angelic facial expression. Most who have a keen aetherical sense might note that his presence bears obvious amounts of void energy, which seems to have had a significant impact on his physical and overall development.
History
Rahferu hails from a complex background, of which he knows only the most minor and ambiguous of detail. His father does not take pride in discussing their family background for a number of reasons--his would-be wife and mother of his son being at the top of that list. In the past, the one chiefly credited as being Rahferu's father was a fierce warrior who was rumored to have draconic heritage largely due to his build which was burlier and taller than many other fully-grown Raen men, although this has yet to be confirmed by the latter. Akasha had been deceived--by a a self-interested demoness, no less. She revealed her true nature and whisked off as soon as she was professedly 'with child', taunting the supposed new father with thoughts of his own 'son' growing up to be a monster who would one day surpass her in strength. Later on, the unnatural mother fled too goodness knows where with a newborn(or rather, newly-created) youngster in tow--far from where the one who believed himself to be the child's father ever had hopes of finding his son. Iregaios created a son (with the help of a few unsavory characters, dark rituals, genetic tampering and Allagan technology)--with the hope that she would create another monster. However, she soon fell prey to the warm tendrils of affection that began to well up within her whenever she interacted with the unnatural youngster. Indeed, this child was going to be absolutely perfect--her match, in both beauty and strength. It was a shame that he hadn't taken all of her features--but in her eyes, he was still quite the boy!
The two took up residence in places far from where common men fear to delve--or so the demoness had thought. They would be separated by a band of bawdy but well-trained adventurers bent on hunting an evil monster. Mistaking the strange, horned child for something the voidsent had kidnapped, the hunters took the screaming, weeping, child under protest into their camp. This was a choice for which they would later pay--dearly. Angered by the audacity that she felt they had shown, Iregaios emerged from the rubble and wreckage borne of the fight. She had been badly beaten--after all, it had been a rather sizeable pack of mortals that had come in after her. As she started to regenerate and patch herself up, the realization hit her--her son was gone. Glamouring herself as something very akin to a Xaela in appearance, the matriarchal voidsent set out to search for her created baby--a search that is still very much under way. Rah has only recently chosen to come out and integrate with society--a choice that he both regrets and takes pride in on a daily basis. He did not adopt a direct approach toward society, heaving hidden out in the wilderness for a very long time after the fear and confusion upon being rather violently separated from the being that mothered him. Over time, it eventually became obvious that he couldn't keep avoiding these other people, even if their strange languages and blunt, alien behavior perturbed and frightened him. As Rah gradually integrated with society he ran into his acclaimed father at long last, who had been searching for him over the years with little to no hope of ever finding him. Akasha and his acclaimed son found adjusting to city-state life and daily interactions with others somewhat difficult, but otherwise enjoyed relatively peaceful life around Thanalan. Rah has more recently been seen taking up residence in Ishgard, though his advents back to Ul'dah are not uncommon. He finds increased comfort in the frozen, war-torn city both because of his newfound fascination with snow, and because Ishgard seems to lack a substantial amount of Raen, who seem abhor the though of a monster who is frequently mislabeled as one of their own. Subsequently, he is more often than not scorned or shunned by their numbers, and happily excluded from their social circles. To this day, Rahferu knows little about his direct creators--much less the sinister detail shrouding the rest of his unnatural, wicked creation. His feelings and future have never truly known stability; for the Au Ra do not want him, nor do the dragons or the voidsent.
- Recently, an unsual pair of dark, Xaela-like beings have started inquiring around Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah, asking if anyone knows the whereabouts of a Rahfel Daitou...
Personality
Rahferu is a sweet but complex person who is often painfully shy and sensitive. There is little to nothing in his overall behavior that can be called cruel, self-righteous or even remotely uppity. It can also be noted that he appears to have little to no grasp on the concept of sexuality and public displays of affection currently, and more often than not misses the punchlines in dirty humor (largely due to his innocent and carefree approach, such flies over his head.) This is often viewed by others as childish or naive by those interact with him seldom, or on a purely superficial basis. He tends to become frustrated things that he can't wrap his head around. Rah hates seldom and little, but when people getting hurt is involved, you may be sure to expect a bad reaction from him. His own bad things do not appear to stick to him nearly as much as anyone else's--making him out to be one of those people who 'cares too much'. Generally he adopts a passive-aggressive approach instead of reverting to a violent and volatile state when upset or angered, despite the corresponding half of his heritage. On the other side of the coin, Rahferu's beauty is matched only with a fatal temper when he is at last pushed too far. The few incidents that have occurred when Rah's cruel temper and loss of tolerance at last were forced to rear their violent heads would probably make his demonic kin proud. Thankfully, it is very hard to make him extremely angry--but undeniably something that will birth a violent and regretful circumstance for most (if not all) parties involved. Tolerant and uncannily observant, Rah is able to mimic many things he sees other people do--usually in order for him to cautiously forge and don a 'mask' when interacting with people he does not know how to approach. His passive and shy nature might seem endearing, but that lack of social understanding has likely cost him many open friendship opportunities.

Quirks
- Rah tends to sketch or doodle when left idle in public
- He enjoys dancing, singing and telling stories
- Like almost any entertainer, Rah is a huge people pleaser....or at least, he tries very hard to be
- Rah is very fidgety and easily distracted by physical items around him, especially dominoes, plushies, cards or toys
- He's a bit of a glutton, loves junk food and often overeats
- Rah appears to be ridiculously naive, romantically oblivious and/or thoroughly disinterested
- Rahferu tends to be overconcious of what other people who are close to him are feeling
- He's extremely sensitive and highly prone to misinterpreting what people say
- Hums pleasant-sounding tunes when he's highly impatient, anxious or anticipating something
- Rah has an extra pair of horns that he snapped off because he felt they are large, cumbersome , like a succubus's or a gargoyle's. Nevertheless, they seem to be in the process of regrowing
- He has a very short attention span
- Rahferu HATES shoes (except the pointy kind, for reasons unknown) and would walk around barefoot for the rest of his life if he knew he could get away with it
- Rah's hair is nearly to the floor in length, and he refuses to trim it more than three ilms
- Nearly anything pertinent to the ancient Allagan, Ala Mhigan, or Ishgardian society fascinates him
- (IC'ly) Rah is a bit short. ((The shortest the Raen character model gets is 79.9 inches/a bit OVER 6 feet tall. In RP, I'd say that Rah would be at least a good inch or so shorter than that!))
- Rah is many, many times physically stronger than he looks
Rumors/What PCs are saying
((If you know Rahferu IC'ly, PLEASE feel free to add something and let me know!! :3))
"I met Rahferu in the Quicksand one day while watching him draw. A few days later, I posed for him and he did a drawing of me for my lover. He is very kind and does wonderful work! I expected him to start flirting with me, but he did not. Strange, but nice!" - Mholi'a Jawantal
"Rah is a very quiet boy, but he can be persuaded to talk. Flirting definitely goes over his head right now, but he is a pleasant one if you just desire conversation." - A'xun Enocan
"In the absence of my usual protection, I asked Rahferu to join me on a few tasks to help keep my body intact. He takes the role of a guardian very seriously and I am happy to say he kept me safe as intended." - Alupia Enocan
"Those thighs are thicker than a bowl of oatmeal." - Anonymous
"Curves like a female, and impossibly beautiful for a male. What I wouldn't give to get my hands on him." - Anonymous
"He's quite the fellow. Pray tell, have you seen him dance? I've never seen anything like it. Such colorful methods are hardly to be found where I grew up in Ishgard...any performer should do well to take a page out of his leaflet." - Celestauz Ostoirainte
"Awww, yeah! I remember him. He's adorable and he uh, kinda reminds me of a bird. I'll take sixty of him, please!" - Dorbei Kha
"Rahferu is so sweet--I should say that one risks a toothache when speaking to him. May I say that I am honestly surprised to see that some unsavory ghoul hasn't snatched him up already? I mean I would, mind you, if it weren't the fact that he walks in the sun and therefore bathes in mortal SIN!!!" - Chi'gu Kagon
"Mhm. Tha's my son, and a damned fine one. He is so pure, innocent n' good-natured. If catch anyone so much as lookin' at my boy 'n a manner that strikes me ta' ill, you'll have nigh a prayer--you'll disappear, see, and you ain' gonna be found. Of tha', yeh kin res' assured..." - Akasha Daitou
"R-rah....f....RAHFEL? Eeee!! I knew my little dark prince was alive! I can't wait to find him...my boy and I, ouh. We have SUCH catching up to do..." - Iregaios, AKA Ibaraki Daitou
"I had no idea that my nephew yet lived. That's good...Iregaios will be most pleased. We will make an effort to further our inquiries around the city-states and see that my beloved sister's child might be re-united with his loving mother once more." - Ikaros, AKA Izuna Daitou
Rumors/What NPCs are saying

"Ah. And you're quite certain that he's not...owned by someone? You know, like a pampered slave--a pet of sorts, perhaps?" - Wealthy Ul'dahn Woman

"Rahferu is very nice--assuming you're able to get past those creepy, evil vibes all around him. He helped me fetch something I'd been missing for weeks. Turned out it got nabbed by the dragons...oh and uh, speaking of. D-don't make him m-mad, kupo!" - Meek Moogle
"Pshh pshh. Be cautioussssh if you plan to make an enemy of him. That onesssh got sshome unnatural energiessssh that never truly shhtray too far from hishhh shteppshh." - Amiable Sahagin Youth
