Introduction

  <<UNDER CONSTRUCTION>> ALL information below is pending further Elezen lore in regards to age and the Warriors of Light, this will contain some spoilers but I will keep the major ones tagged, please be cautious!

  Quarimar is a Duskwight Elezen from series of island caves south of Thanalan. While not a native to Eorzea he has lived there for nearly a decade, in that time he has come to call it home. Requiring numerous materials from nearly every corner of the land he can often be found traveling far and wide atop his trusted Chocobo Nhestal. Subjected to the spell of Louisoix, he was pushed forward alongside other adventurers but returned only three years later. After ensuring his families safety he has returned to Eorzea, both to seek out his missing Sister and survey the changes to the land.  

Primary Information

Name:

• Quaraunt Imarin (Ku-waar-aun EE-maar-inn)
• Baenund (BAY-nn.OOn-duh) A families potential history.

Show text

A few translations have been made of this family name mostly by him and Synndil before the event with Dalamund, Quarimars attempt at interpretation is "Blessed by monsters touch" Supposing a talent appearing monstrous or perhaps representing abilities augmented by some sort of Primal, He still searches for a more accurate account.

Aliases/Nicknames:

• Quarimar (Ku-waar.EE-maar) Far and wide

Show text

A shortened version of his name, used when coming over to Eorzea and used commonly since. He prefers that only his family know his full name.

• Istrysn (ihst-riss-inn) Thankfully forgotten.

Show text

Known to his family (and previously to members of the Sacrarium), given to him sardonically after attaining the status of Black Mage, thought of by Synndil. From the old tongue she was helping him decipher it can be translated in a variety of ways, "Ist" as "Endless or Immortal" and "Rysn" as "Artifact, Dweomer, Sorcerer or Spell." Synndil intended it as "Endless Spell" poking fun at his often longwinded exposition on possible tweaks to various incantations. It was twisted to "Immortal Sorcerer" by some of his peers at the Sacrarium who had also become familiar with the language. It insinuates the more barbaric "sorcerer" term along with use of "immortal" as a kind of curse, implying a lack of connection with Nald'Thal. He has come to resent it immensely and is quite glad that it has been forgotten.

• Quari (Ku-waar-EE) For his Friends.

Show text

A shortening of his Eorzean name, used mostly by his friends who often truncated his name into one quick sound anyways. While he finds it a bit embarrassing when used in public, and though he would never admit it, he is pleased to have one.

• Attendant A title used while working.
