General Information

A'dehn Tia is an older male Miqo'te who, previous to the Calamity, was once part of a small party of adventurers who sold their swords to the Immortal Flames. The four of them, being life long friends, worked well together and make a great sum of Gil in their small expeditions. A'dehn lead a relatively happy life until the Calamity struck. He and his party were called to serve in the battle against the VIIth Legion and serve they did. Bahamut was released from his prison and the other adventurers were teleported away. All save A'dehn, who somehow remained and woke upon the burning battlefield among the bodies of friends and foes alike. Stumbling from the wreckage of the fight, he soon found that he could not die. He certainly experienced the pain of his injuries but each time he fell he would only come right back.

Now, A'dehn seeks out a cure for his condition. After suffering with it for 5 years he has sought out every solution that he can, save one. Currently A'dehn works alongside the Ascians as they have promised him the end he so desires.

Appearance

A'dehn Tia is a male Seeker of the Sun miqo'te baring a general resemblance to others of his people and clan with a tan complexion. His normal eye color is almost amber like, however, he lost vision in one eye during the Calamity and it has since went a milky white. He stands at approximately 5 fulms, 6 ilms (5 fulms 8 ilms including ears) and is athletically built, with a slim but toned body.

He has light brown hair shaved into an undercut. Due to the loss of is eye he tends to wear a patch over it. His taste in clothes is usually well maintained shirts, pants, and boots.

Personality

Personality Traits

• Anti-Hero
• Serious
• Introvert
• Independent
• Lonely
• Stubborn
• Depressed
• Intelligent

Mannerisms

A'dehn tends to play his hand close to his chest and is willing to steal and kill to achieve his goals. However, he is cunning enough not to do so immediately but will if his hand is forced in any way.

Unfortunately he is not very social as being sociable when you're helping ancient beings destroy the world seems to be a bit hypocritical. That being said no one in the world can go without forming relationships and A'dehn might be in for a very big surprise.

He struggles with intimacy and relationships. He used to be very good at making friends but those skills went out the window a long time ago. Because of this he might not get a joke or understand that someone is just trying to be friendly and instead assume that they are being aggressive.

Philosophy & Ideals

A'dehn's philosophy lets nothing get in the way of his true goal. If he dies he'll be happy but his greatest fear in all the world is to be the last sentient being in existence. Doing or saying anything to achieve his one true goal is what drives him. Nothing and no one has been able to coax he away from his all driving purpose. Whether someone even can is up for debate.

Quirks

• Obsessed: A'dehn has one goal and one goal only. He's literally killed and even died for it multiple times.
• Hates Antelope Meat: Growing up in the A tribe, when food was scarce, they tended to eat Antelope. And only Antelope. Antelope jerky. Antelope stew. Antelope filet. So much did he have to partake in that meat that he can't stand it at all and will get nausea if he has to eat it.
• Morbid Humor: Tends to make jokes that are on the darker side especially about his own mortality or actions.

Nothing will stop it. Not even his own conscience. Cold: A'dehn does not tend to talk about his feelings or needs to other beings, instead choosing to bottle things up. Obsessed: Everything in his life revolves around dying and that one singular thought is why he's not buried himself in a hole somewhere.

Early Life

Childhood

Samilen Jawantal was born to a small family in Limsa Lominsa and is the eldest child of three. He has two younger sisters, Xazi (15) and Gici (7), and all three were born to father Nobu'li (Miqo'te) and mothers Sami (Miqo'te) and Lenphi (Hyur).

Sami and Lenphi were born, grew in and married within the city-state of Gridania, but later moved to Limsa Lominsa in search of prosperous jobs, as both of them were skilled carpenters and Limsa was then with a sore need for their skills in the growing demand for ships.

The two of them met Nobu'li, a local fisherman and well-known womanizer at the time. Over the course of several years he managed to win the hearts of both Sami and Lenphi–or at least, that’s in his own recounts of the history. Many others would remember that he was no more a bumbling mess to the two women who, eventually, found him a part of their relationship.

Several months after the three of them married officially, their first son was born: Samilen. He was named after both of his mothers as part of Sami’s values and quickly proved himself to be quite the handful. Until he was a young teenager, Samilen got into trouble very often around the docks of Limsa: stealing fish, playing pranks, getting into fights with other kids. There seemed to be no end to the chaos he could get himself into (many likened to say that he took after his father, Nobu'li).

Adolescence

Several years after Xazi was born, Samilen found his calling in archery and botany, two skill sets that were not at all common in Limsa nor its surrounding areas.

Though his parents had reservations about allowing Samilen to take up a skill that may lead him into the growing skirmishes against the Garlean Empire, as many other parents were for their not-yet-adult children, they allowed him to move back to Gridania to learn archery and botany while under the care of extended family.

He took to both skills very quickly and soon became well-known across others of his age for his quickness, dexterity and extraordinary aim with a bow, and also his curiosity and enthusiasm in learning the art of not only botany, but carpentry as well.

Samilen brought respect and pride to his mothers and father and on the eve of his 18th nameday, he joined the ranks of Order of the Twin Adder so he could use his skills to protect the citizens of Gridania and even Eorzea as a whole.

When the Great Calamity happened, Samilen was one of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield against the Garlean Empire. He is also one of many thousands who saw the world burn before him, with the memories of fire, death and destruction seared forever into his memories and nightmares, never to be forgotten.

Recent Times

Five years after the Great Calamity, Samilen is still overcoming much of the trauma he among other soldiers endured. Since that day he has been mute, refusing to speak and communicating only in sign language and otherwise not traveling very far from Gridania (even to visit his family).

Despite being a member of the Order of the Twin Adders, Samilen is rarely called for combat of any sort. Due to his skills however, he often serves to mentor new archers in the Twin Adders, but he otherwise serves as a connection to the various crafting guilds within Gridania and has supplied many weapons to them of his own make.

He refuses vehemently to go to into active battle again and, as a survivor of the Great Calamity battle, many respect that (especially as his skills can still be used elsewhere).

He can often be found within the carpentry guild filling orders or traveling within the Black Shroud on various tasks given to him by the botany guildmaster Fufucha.

These are rumors that are easily overheard or public knowledge. Use them freely!* "Samilen Jawantal is top of his field as a botanist, though I wonder sometimes if it's healthy to spend more time with plants than with people." - Anonymous botanists' guild member "For all the time that he spends at the Carpenters' guild, Samilen always seems to have his eyes on guildmaster Beatin. Does he have a crush?" - Anonymous carpenters' guild client "That young man used to be quite the troublemaker, playing pranks on just about anyone he could think of. He's still very energetic, but Samilen has calmed down a bit since joining the Order of the Twin Adders; they must have disciplined it right out of him!" - Gridanian vendor * Some rumors may be partially or entirely untrue.		These rumors may take a little digging to find. Use sparingly or ask permission before use.* "Honestly, I think he's just faking everything. Who's to say he was even at the battle against the Garlean Empire during the Great Calamity anyway? I'm not his supervisor but still, I can't find any record of his posting. I think he's faking for sympathy." - Anonymous Serpent Sergeant Third Class "I'm fairly sure that Miqo'te has like, a kink for plants or something." - Anonymous botanists' guild member "I think his family lives in Limsa Lominsa, but he never seems to visit them; maybe they've disowned him?" - Anonymous Order of the Twin Adders initiate * Some rumors may be partially or entirely untrue.
