Appearance: ---
Short in stature, at roughly 5 fulms and 5 ilms, he does not strike an imposing figure and can easily move amongst a crowd and disappear. His natural Miqo’te biology lends to him a distinctly athletic and healthy build. Unlike many he is not quite as svelte as his kin, being somewhat more robust in musculature, especially on his arms and legs.
His hair is similar to his eyes, two toned. A lighter and a darker golden mane of hair is brushed with some effort into a tidy, bush mop of hair, the fairer strands of hair shining in the Thanalan sun.
He has a shortly cropped but luscious beard of similar tone as well on his face. His tail, distinct from being bushy and fluffy as some other Miqo’te is more slender and sleek, with a measure of prehensile control to it.
His eyes themselves are striking, wild almost in look. His right eye, a stark silvery grey and the left a flaming orange, like a smouldering ember. Which of the eyes is the “magic” one however has been open to interpretation. He is however scarred over his right eye, by unknown means.
Scars & Markings: --- Scarring over his right eye.
Voice: --- Smooth and soft like sandy beach, yet deep like an ocean.
Clothing: --- His style of dress is usually casual, although generally with signs of his wealth being present. A lover of jewellery and ornamentation, rings and necklaces, bracelets and anklets are always seen on him. His clothing generally also tends itself for baring his tanned, almost bronze coloured skin off to the sunlight. His ears are pierced with gemstone loops and his navel with a band of silver. The scent of strong perfumes generally linger around him as well.
Background:
A misfit Miqo’te whom speaks and acts more like the Hyuran population of Ul’dah than his typically semi-tribal Seeker kin. For good reason as well.
Found on a scorching hot day in the Thanalan deserts as a mere infant, his deceased mother not far from where he was being sheltered. A young couple of Hyur merchants on their routine trading took pity on the plight of the apparently orphaned Miqo’te and took him in as their own, having struggled to conceive a child of their own for years. They named him Percival, unintentionally misreading foreign scrawling on parchment sheets found in his carrying basket as being some sort of identity for the infant.
As a result the young Percival has mostly been raised in the urban locales of Ul’dah, culturally and behaviourally in common with the kindly Hyuran family who adopted him. The Rookthorne merchants of Ul’dah, while by no means Syndicate levels of affluence are a decently well off family of traders, with their versatility in trades and services contributing for their wealth, with an eclectic mix of mining, caravans, exotic luxury goods and logistics being their main reserves of riches.
Their primary trading areas are Thanalan and La Loscea, with a smaller level going through the Black Shroud. As a result Percival has been raised around trade and mercantilist culture for most of his life, imparting a certain touch on his behaviour and skills, not to mention a decent understanding of many areas around Eorzea.
Ontop of his trading background, during his childhood it was found Percival had an innate knack for the arts of Thaumaturgy, and was sent to study with them from the earliest age possible. It has been said by his adoptive mother to him that his shining silver eye was a sign of his potential with magic. An accomplished Thaumaturge his ability in aetheric manipulation is significant.
--- Being raised by Hyur, he has more in common with Hyuran culture than his native Seeker Miqo’te people. In general he is highly affable and sociable, usually one to break tensions and chilling within a conversation. His propensity to make friends easily works well for his merchant background, along with his knack for solving disputes and making a deal.
A wry and often dry sense of humour comes from him usually, especially after several drinks. A sense of impulsiveness and recklessness often follows him, the sort to act on a whim simply because he feels like experiencing it. A Bon Vivant in outlook, he does not shy away from over consumption and over indulgence, even if regret may come afterwards. To the casual viewer he may come across as overly laidback to the point of indolence. ---
Dislikes
Bad Faith
He has a particular intense dislike for those who act with malice in their actions to others, especially while appearing to be benign. Those acting with bad faith towards him are less bothering than others.
Indecisiveness
As impulsive as he is, he finds those who can’t decide what they want to do or where they want to do or what action to take as overly boring and irritating. Even worse when someone in a position of leadership dithers about.
Cold Climates
Being a son of the sands and sun, the idea of coldness is discomforting and even upsetting to him. Anything colder than moderately temperate will sour his mood. He strongly dislikes snow and ice and will avoid unless strictly necessary
Dishonour
While by no means a saint or a paragon of virtue, he has a code of conduct he follows and will not deviate from it, and when forced to will be likely highly annoyed. There are certain things he simply will not like to do. One can still be a rogue and a gentleman at the same time after all.
Likes
Eating
a glutton in many ways, if there is food on the go he will take a bite out of it. Something of a talent for eating and drinking his own bodyweight in food and alcohol.
Social butterfly
Unlike many Miqo’te men, he revels in social interaction, with anyone and anything practically. He particularly enjoys trying to break people out of social isolation and warm them up.
Hedonist
Hand in hand with socialising, he has a propensity for playing game. Ranging from gambling to games of strategy all the way to simple riddling and dare-seeking.
Bookish
While not appearing to look it on the surface he does enjoy calmer and more mentally enriching activities such as reading and studying. In particular group studying is one of his greatest pleasures, to interact with wise and learned minds.
Fishing
while an amateur he has always loved fishing, claiming it must be some sort of primeval instinct inside him to go angling

PC
D'eshel Tia( ● ♥ ?)( Player ) - Tribal Half-Brother
An enigmatic fellow Seeker he met one evening at Nald's Reflection. The young, poorly spoken Miqo'te sparked interest in him, as if he had seen him before. Auspiciously meeting him at such a place at the statue of Nald made Percy think he would meet this strange man again.
E'lias Moshroca( ♦ ✔)( Player ) - Stylish Far-Eastern Colleague
Commonly known to Percy as Elias, he is on good terms with the often flamboyantly dressed Au Ra. Not knowing much of the far eastern natives Percy was curious to get to know the flashy Dragon-scaled man, of which he now considers him the closest to him in their Free Company.
Vyraan Malaguld( ● ✔)( Player ) - Eccentric Free Company Manager
Percy's Free Company leader, of whom he sees as something of an eccentric, although well meaning. Another Au Ra, he is both fascinated and in Vyraan's case, often baffled by her behaviour.
A lady so impressive Percy initially thought she was a man. He finds Tanis and her drinking acumen to be similar to his and her straight fowardness has given him a good impression of the imposing free company secretary.
Ihrih Nhoyo( ♦)( Player ) - Aspiring Miqo'te Matriarch
A friendly face who has offered Percy a means to get to understand his own people more. Adequately diplomatic and laid-back, he finds her a good position to lead the helpful co-operative she founded.
A quiet, maybe naive and shy Keeper Miqo'te. Percy has made it his mission to raise the soft-hearted Keeper's confidence and make him feel welcome. Over time he has realised he also has other, warmer feelings towards his friend. For the sake of his friend's delicate nature however he hasn't advanced past giving the kind boy a few kisses.
Meek, shy but kind and pleasant Seeker who shared a similar learned interest with Percy. For all his apparent introversion and Percy's extroversion they have managed to get on well, with Percy finding the bookish Miqo'te an enriching pleasure to talk to a fellow thinker. He looks foward to a day when he and Banhi can go exploring ancient ruins of yore together.
A female Keeper with more emotion than sense. Percy largely dislikes her due to her apparent inability to rationally behave, observing several instances of petty, childish behaviour. More annoyingly he believes she can dish out unpleasantries but retreats to tears when he or others return the favour. Animosity is likely to increase due to both of them sharing a proud streak.
Kit Everett( ♦)( Player ) - Friendly Neighbourhood Girl
Percy gets along well with Kit, seeing her very similar to his own younger sister. On top of this he feels affinity with her, a fellow Miqo'te who has been raised amongst Hyur. Fellow goggle aficionado.
Astrid Rensa( ●)( Player ) - International Miq'ote of Mystery
Highly interested in this mysterious Seeker lady. Not least of all the bounty on her head. Not one to mindlessly turn in others for Gil he wants to learn more about this snow-haired "subversive".
J'ruko Tia( ♦)( Player ) - Traditionalist Goofball
Percy while only recently got to know Ruko finds the young traditional thinking Tia to be refreshing and quaint. He has taken pity on the plight of the poor boy who has had to abandon his homeland for a foreign nation that he doesn't feel comfortable in. His antics remind him of himself in someways as well, further endearing him.
Met the same evening as Ruko, Vahni is something quite unlike Percy has met so far. Finding the dark-haired and wry-humoured Seeker to gel very well with his own personality, Percy found an instant and electric connection to the sellsword. While enjoying his time camped out with Vanhi and Ruko he found his mind tumultous following his time with the wandering Mercenary.
