Basic Info

Shiv'to Vodha hails from a small village deep in the Twelveswood. From an early age he didn't fit in, probably due to his psychopathic tendencies, so he left (with some complications) shortly after hitting puberty. After he saw his first airship in Gridania he fell in love with the prospect of flying. Out of all the city states Limsa Lominsa appealed to him the most, so he applied for citizenship there. Until he could afford his own place Shiv'to stayed with the Arcanists, having shown a predisposition towards the arcane. Over the course of many years of hard work, not all of it legal, he fulfilled his dream and became an airship pilot.

Appearance & Personality

Shiv'to stands below average for Keepers of the Moon, his frame is lithe and thin. Physically he is not a very imposing man, and he is not particularly strong either. What he excels in is speed, his reflexes are high for a Mi'qote. Usually he wears comfortable loose clothing, leather boots, and the Eorzean equivalent of jeans. He makes an effort to appear presentable, which is evident in his frequently washed clothing and hair. Despite this he carries around a faint smell of engines, oil, and sometimes gunpowder. Shiv'to doesn't make much noise, sometimes to the unsettlement of others. His voice is low and calm, and it carries a small Nordic sound to it.

Much like others of his race Shiv'to broods often, and does not give away much information about himself. The latter is a defence mechanism to prevent others from learning of his true nature. Shiv'to holds no empathy for other people, and takes pleasure in killing all forms of life. If betraying a friend would benefit him more than the friendship he would do so without hesitation. All the friends he has are for selfish reasons, he views them as tools he can use to further his own desires. He is extremely tenacious and patient, taking whatever time and effort is necessary to get what he wants. However Shiv'to is also intelligent; he knows this behaviour is shunned and punished by society. On the surface he maintains a view of the polite, professional, and reliable airship captain. Off duty he is friendly, humorous, and flirtatious. This combination is what he has found to make himself appear ordinary to most, so he sticks with it.

Present

Shiv'to is an airship pilot for Maelstrom. Currently he holds the rank of Sergeant Third Class, and is perfectly content staying there. His record is flawless, and many view him as a respectable member of society. A handful of officers in Maelstrom are locked in his grip through blackmail and other nefarious means, which ensures his security within the company. Recently his airship had to undergo major repairs. In the meantime Maelstrom has assigned him to an investigative team concerning the recent kidnappings at Little Ala Mhigo. Shiv'to doesn't mind, because it's an opportunity for action and killing. Besides, he was starting to get bored.
