S'raku Tia
About
Pronunciation... Soo-RAH-koo
Alias... Raku, Tribal Savage, Dumb Zu
Age... 21
Race... Miqo'te
Clan... Seeker of the Sun
Gender... Male
Occupation... Adventurer
Deity... Azeyma, the Warden
Alignment... Neutral Good
S'raku stands at 5 fulm and 7 ilms, with broad shoulders and an athletic build honed from a life of hunting, climbing and fighting. His fluffy ash-blonde hair almost always sits in a mess upon his head, despite being well groomed along with his lengthy tail, and the small patch of hair on his chin. He is odd-eyed, his right a shade of blue and the left a shade of turquoise.
Scars & Markings: Raku bears numerous scars across his body, the most notable of which being one large scar across his back, from his right shoulder down to the left of his hip. He bears a small tattoo on his left cheek, depicting a Zu.
Voice: Soft yet eager, with a slight roughness. When speaking huntspeak, he has a habit of exaggerating his clicks, often into an odd chirping sound.
Clothing: S'raku is rarely seen in anything but a mere one or two outfits of simple cloth and light leather, unremarkable for the most part, save for several decorative strips of his tribe's cloth and charms here and there.
Approaching life with a care-free attitude and no small amount of enthusiasm for what he does, S'raku's adventurous nature and nigh insatiable curiosity has a knack for getting him into trouble, more often than not. Dedicated to honing his abilities, he is easily frustrated by his own shortcomings, and quick to dig his feet in when he sets his mind to something. He is inexperienced with the wider realm, and is easily misled, placing too much trust in those he does not know.

NPC
S'khali Tohra( ♥ )( Mother )
S'raku's mother, to whom he owes many of his cooking and foraging skills. A woman of little words, she was supportive of her tribe and her children.
S'tohra Nunh( ♥ ♠ ✖ )( Father )
The previous Nunh, and S'raku's father. A small, yet intimidating man that went mad with the loss of his mate, taking out much of his anger on his sons and daughters, before being struck down and subsequently exiled by his eldest son, S'rahr Tia. Some seventeen summers later and he returns, seeking to steal his children away for use in a necromantic ritual to resurrect his mate, but once more he was thwarted, this time by his youngest son, S'raku, with the help of Lucius Ignatius.
S'rahr Nunh( ♥ ♥ )( Big Brother )
S'raku's older brother, though by different mothers. He bested their father, taking his place as Nunh, and the best fighter of the tribe. S'raku has had many conflicting feelings toward him over the years, and the two have fallen out on several occasions.
S'lahi Tohra( ♥ )( Huntsister )
S'raku's hunting partner, and the closest of his sisters. The two were inseparable, and got up to no small amount of mischief in their youth.
S'yamah Tia( ♥ ♠ )( Little Brother )
Determined to one day become Nunh, like his father S'rahr; S'yamah protects the position from all those who would seek to take it. Often going as far as to challenge his fellow Tia. S'raku does his best to avoid him at all costs.
S'vemya Tohra( ♥ )( Big Sister )
Head huntress within the tribe, S'vemya taught S'raku much of what he knows about hunting. Speaking almost exclusively in her own modified form of huntspeak, young hunters seeking to learn from her were required to catch the tongue quickly.
S'zhesu Fher( ♥ )( Tribe Elder )
The eldest of S'fher Nunh's daughters, S'zhesu was the first elder to assume leadership alongside the current Nunh, to ensure that the tribe is not brought to ruin once again. She oversees their ceremonies and most other tribe activities.
S'raku's near-identical twin brother. Separated at a young age, S'ruka has lived a very different life than his brother, one of abuse and slavery, until he broke free, roaming the wilds in a near feral state, until were reunited after seventeen long summers.
The first Keeper of the Moon that Raku met...and then promptly stormed with questions; Qih'li was not as friendly as the Tia believed, his sarcastic remarks falling on deaf ears for a time, until a dispute over S'imba showed Qih'li's true colours...at least, so he thought at the time.
Meeting R'khei just shortly before setting out on a task, S'raku received much needed directional help from the other Tia. The two sharing talk of their cultures before parting ways.
S'raku met K'rahja in Ul'dah, at first awed by the man's armour; the two shared talk of their fighting styles, eventually engaging in a sparring match. His first impressions of the Nunh were positive, though he remains a little fearful of the other's use of magitek.
S'raku bears a great deal of respect for the other Zu tribe Tia, for his kindness to others, his skill in combat and the many tales of his exploits. Not even considering that there may have been a little embellishment in the stories.
Though he was at first wary of Lucius for being a garlean and using magitek, S'raku agreed to give him a chance. Coming to trust Lucius after being saved from several dangerous situations, and the two became close friends, and eventually partners, though this would only last so long, as differing goals in life drew them apart.
A Seeker of the Sun woman with a constantly changing attitude, chaotic abilities and powerful allies, Raku sees her as a threat, and does his best to avoid her. When they do cross paths, hostilities almost always follow.
An Allagan android discovered by Lucius, who later came to develop a personality of her own. Despite the potential risks, Raku respects her as the person she wishes to be, and has come to see her like a sister.
A Lalafellin woman that Raku has met on a number of occasions. Though he believes her nice for the most part, he still holds a grudge after she shot him in the foot.
A well-spoken Lalafell that claimed to know Raku in the past, and sought his protection. Razon came across as a little suspicious, causing Raku and his friends to distance themselves, and when the time came that he needed them the most, they were nowhere to be seen, and came to hear he had passed away in their absence.
A pitfighter from Ala Mhigo, Raku would watch her fight in the coliseum on a few occasions, until finally getting the chance to fight her, and receive instructions on the ways of the Monk. She went missing not long after, only surfacing again in recent times, worn and wounded from battle. Raku hopes to one-day learn more from her, but until then, will do all he can to aid her recovery.
Skilled in many arts and fighting styles, Arylisse held Raku's respect almost at the moment they met, for her skills and tendency to say exactly what he wanted to hear. And more recently, offered to teach him in the ways of the monk.
Hailing from Doma, Raku met the Auri Raen at a waterfall. A foreigner to the realm with no place to stay and not a gil to his name, he was offered shelter at Raku's apartment, rather reluctantly on the Seeker's part. Though over time he has realised the Raen isn't quite as intimidating as he looks.
A friend of Lucius' that offered them shelter. Though he left a positive impression at first, it was some time before Raku would see Ariaut again, but they quickly became friends, Raku appreciating his knowledge and tendency to take him seriously, saying exactly what he wants to hear.
Another friend of Lucius', T'leyeh and Raku approach things somewhat similarly, because of this, Raku sees him as something of a rival, feeling the need to compete whenever they are together.
Adventurer and gladiator, Toshisuke and Raku got off on the wrong foot at first, but became fast friends as the two enjoyed many of the same activities - fighting and adventuring. Raku saw the Raen as a rival, but also a close friend, the two sharing many of their troubles with eachother, and growing closer together through it all. It was Toshi that made S'raku realise that Au Ra were not so bad, and come to accept them in full.
A blind Keeper of the Moon, with a tendency to get kidnapped, and the ability to talk to plans. Raku sees Paz'a as a little brother of sorts, and does his best to protect him from those seeking to do him harm.
Roegadyn thief, with skills in many different arts, and friend to Toshi and the others. Blade has a knack for enraging the Seeker, be it by his bluntness, or his ways of poking fun, despite this, Raku doesn't hold it against him, considering him a good friend, even if there's few times to express it.
An intimidating Keeper of the Moon, and experienced Monk, who agreed to teach Raku the ways of the art. Being not much of a talker, Raku is often left wondering, though believes Sae speaks with actions over words, and so tries his best to follow the Keeper's lead.
