[edit] Character Relationships Lost Memories Rumors RP Hooks / Public Info Art and Screenshots Annotations  Sage Yvelont Error creating thumbnail: File missing I got what you need, friend Vagabond Gender Male Race Elezen Clan Wildwood Citizenship Limsain Age 36 Birthplace Unknown Nameday 2nd Sun of the 4th Umbral Moon Height 6'7" Weight 198lbs Occupation Gambler, Drinker, Host ☩ Appearance & Personality Tall and lengthy are just the first things one would use to describe the man who goes by the name "Sage Yvelont", his well kept facial hair and adornment of fine fabrics and jewelry speak loudly that he prefers to present himself as someone of a high standard, or he tries to at least. But don't be mistaken, beneath his slender appearance is a well fit machine of toned muscles. Nothing too grand, but just enough the average man would need to survive. From Rags to Riches, Sage now often sports a set of well manicured hands. He presents himself at his best at all times or at least he tries to. Green eyes often are the first thing others comment on as they feel that when they look into them, the very forests of the shroud gaze back. His long black flowing hair nearly always shines against the light during the day while never giving the off appearance of an unclean and greasy texture. A scar on his left cheek, to which he knows not how it came to be, is how few of more criminal nature have come to describe him. "The enigmatic Elezen man with a scar on his cheek." Beyond his now cleaned and presentable appearance, Sage still to some, remains a boil on the backside of society's ass. Sage seems to alter his expressive nature on the world around him in relation to the setting. Often considered to act on immediate and often immoral behaviors, those who come to understand him merely relate that he does as the world around him does to him. Should kind, self sacrificing acts make their way to his heart, it's possible the claims of his immoral behavior could be considered merely lies and slander in time. ☩ Bio TO BE COMPLETED ⚒ Combat & Skills Sage is an Arcanist by trade, and as such the average abilities of an Arcanist are not unknown to him. Some of his more specialized talents in combat would be his ability to seamlessly coordinate pre-thought plans of attack with his personal Carbuncle, named Grim. Although he keeps himself in a decent physical shape, he does lack the ability to lift greater things such as heavy armor or weapons. Any person wearing such things will be like trying to move a wall for him. But unlike one who is garbed in chain and metal, Sage does retain the strength to move the average person who is devoid of such things if carried over his shoulders. When faced in combat not traditional to him, such as swords and projectiles, Sage will favor distance over close quarters. If threatened and approached in combat well beyond his comfort range, he is not against using anything to give him distance, even going so far as to smack the attacker with his book or try to stab them unskillfully with his waist blade.   Color Key ♥ In A Relationship: Sage is romantically involved with this character. ♥ Romantic Attraction: Sage is romantically interested in this character. ♥ Platonic: Sage considers this person a close friend, like family. ♦ Friend: Sage considers this person a friend, one he would confide with. ♦ Friendly Acquaintance: Sage considers this person in positive standing, someone not just a customer. ● Good Standing: Sage has no feelings about this character, however they left a good impression. ● Neutral: Sage has no feelings about this character. ● Bad Standing: Sage has no feelings about this character, however they left a bad impression. ♠ Dislike: This person isn't a friend to Sage, but he will talk with them if needed. ♠ Hate: This person annoys Sage, and he will try to avoid them.

NPC   Zazaan Zezean ( ● ♠ ) The first person Sage awoke to when he can first recount after losing all his memories is this kind Lalafell. Zazaan took Sage to a nearby waystation called Summerford. After a few weeks of generous hospitality, the man gifted Sage a large sum of gil to start his life off and to help him in his journey to find out who he was. It wasn't until a week later during a trip to Limsa that Zazaan would find Sage wasted drunk, reeking of booze and Somnus while wearing little to no clothes near the drowning wench. After attempting to comfort Sage, he would find out that Sage foolishly spoke openly of the money he was given and befriended a bar patron who suggested he should enjoy his wealth. He ultimately squandered the money on women, beer and drugs. By the nights end he was robbed of everything, even most of his clothes by thieves just outside of the city-state. When Zazaan heard of all this he grew mad at Sage, for he had given the things he once had out of charity and kindness. Upset, Zazaan banished Sage from his sight and alerted the Yellow Jackets, causing Sage to run. PC   Batu Qalli ( ♥ ✖ ) The very first person to discover Sage hiding away in the host club was this sharp tongued songbird woman, Batu Qualli. After meeting him with suspicion, Batu came to care and worry for Sage once she learned of his difficult affliction. After inviting him back to her home, she told him to rest as much as he needed and that should he ever need a place to stay, her home would always be welcoming. Batu then followed up this gentle and kind offer by giving him money for there wasn't a single gil to Sage's name. Having had once already been given money by another and squandering it all on Somnus, Sage began to feel remorse for his actions. He promised to try to make the best of Batu's kind gestures, a promise that stands to this day. Addendum: Time passes and Sage has grown closer to Batu. He now reveres Batu highly and closely as someone he won't stand to see suffer. Always offering his advice and being a body to lean on in her time of need. They may not be like family, but Sage see's her as someone, who no matter what happens, will always remain a faithful friend. Finale Addendum: Sage fell in love with Batu near the climax of her story, however he was unable to express his feelings before her unfortunate passing in a battle long started from her past. Upon seeing the secret love of his life passing mere seconds after entering her fading vision, Sage fell into a deep spiral grief. However, after support from his friends and other loved ones, as well as receiving an other-worldly feeling from his secret crush, he slowly began to climb out of his sorrow, vowing to never forget the woman whom he had unspoken feelings for. "There is no such thing as good bye’s in life, no door ever shuts itself completely. Tho’ we may be worlds apart now, the time spent and memories let us be where we are needed the most when time gives us a moment to think back upon ‘em. The people you have met, the moments you have shared, the losses you have suffered, the tragedies you have overcome. All of it has made you--you. They live on now as a part of you. Cherish them, in life, and after. Each and everyone of us know a Batty of their own, if you so feel compelled, please, sing her song as her echo. She'd like that..." - Sage's words to his fellow mourners and friends of Batu.   Isuke Inoue ( ♦ ✔ ) Having only briefly once before bumped into Isuke in a mistaken drug sale gone sour. Sage met this short and small Rean girl in the Quicksands. As fate would have it, their paths crossed again when Isuke showed up one day at his place of employment. With a similar affliction tying them to the place in which they congregate, as well as her interest in being a friend to Batu, Sage has taken to liking Isuke. The Stained Glass Window Sage's memories lay in ruin. This section is a representation of his shattered psyche, portrayed in the form of a stained glass window that has been broken. Over time through interactions of once past friends and family and even new people, his psyche may rebuild itself. A day may come about when the light that used to shine upon his soul passes once again through the beautiful color, the window if you may believe, of his soul. He may finally regain that sense of who he really is. TO BE COMPLETED Common Rumors "Be careful of that one.
