A P P E A R A N C E

Ahzra'li is a relatively tall Miqo'te, standing at least a few ilms taller than many of his kin. His facial features border on being soft with the exception of his eyes, which remain sharp and keen. He, like many Miqo'te, bears distinct heterochromia, one eye being a pale gold and the other a pale silver. Raven black hair falls to his collar bone, though sometimes he prefers to tie it back to be out of his way.

His build is akin to an acrobat, being made of lithe muscle and little else. Lithe though he may be, he does not lack in power, and can pull the string of a longbow with habitual ease. His skin is clear, having no visible scars whatsoever.

P E R S O N A L I T Y

Male Keepers of the Moon are well known for their quiet and brooding nature, and Ahzra'li is far from an exception to this stereotype. Reclusive and near perpetually serious, it is no wonder he retains a certain distance from those he encounters in his travels. He boasts an unwavering kind of pragmatism that often veils his more sentimental and spiritual aspects. Indeed, he is deeply spiritual, though he rarely speaks of such things, if he decides to speak to someone at all.

Likes ■ Nature. Being outside is a comfort to him. Often he spends his nights in the shadow of a waterfall. ■ Music. Though few know it, Ahzra'li is a fair musician. One of his prized possessions is an antique lyre, carved with delicate, beautiful ivy patterns by a loving hand. ■ Solitude. People are stressful, and often bewildering. Though circumstances do not always permit, there are few pleasures he enjoys more than having the silence to think.

Dislikes ■ Impetuousness. His pragmatic nature often demands that he plan actions out well ahead of time. People who do not do the same get under his skin quickly. ■ Underestimation. Ahzra'li loathes someone deciding his competency, or lack thereof. He will usually go out of his way to correct them. ■ Nicknames. It is Ahzra'li, not Ahzra.

Quirks ■ Illiterate. ■ Despite the former quirk, he is quite knowledgeable in topics from herbalism to magitek (Or rather, predominantly those two). ■ Flicks his ear when annoyed, excited, or aroused. It tends to be the only window into what he is thinking.

Some of these rumors are untrue or are greatly exaggerated. Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC!

Common Rumors (Easy to overhear)

• "Can't say I know much about him. Comes around now and then to trade some hides and meat, keeps to himself. Bit dire if you ask me, but I'm not going to complain. Stuff he brings in is top-notch." -Merchant, Bentbranch Meadows.
• "Poor sod looked so confused, being asked to take a job at a brothel. Guess he didn't know fair-looking men sell just as well as the women 'round these parts. " -Drunkard at the Quicksand, Ul'dah.

Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear)

• "...Then the master hands him a book, tells him he should look it over to get an idea of the basics if he is serious about studying here. Well, turns out the cat can't read. By Thal, I've never seen anyone laugh as hard as Deitroux did. Really, an alchemist who can't read? May as well throw an opo-opo in to perform surgery." -Unimportant apprentice at the Alchemists' Guild, Ul'dah.

Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard)

• "I bid you to stay well away from that one. He comes in every few moons when there is a wound he can not mend on his own. These wounds be not from predator or misstep, but of a kind I had not laid eyes on since the Empire was upon our doorstep. He wears the garb well of his nomadic kin, but be not fooled. What he did to attract such enemies I know not, and I dare not speculate." -Senior Conjurer of the Conjurers Guild to an apprentice, Gridania.

NPC Ahzra Lhomi ( ♥ ● ) ( NPC ) - Mother Ahzra'li does not speak often of his mother, and usually cites that he does not remember her well. While this may be true, he tends to give her mention with a certain kind of distaste in his tone. Ahzra'a Lhomi ( ♥ ● ) ( NPC ) - Brother If Ahzra's first son stayed with her when he was young, Ahzra'li never saw him. It is by name only that he knows his first brother should exist. Whether or not he lives is another matter entirely. Ahzra'to Lhomi ( ♥ ● ) ( NPC ) - Brother The second son of Ahzra, Ahzra'li retains some distant and vague memories of. Ahzra'to left his family when Ahzra'li was still quite young. Despite this, Ahzra'li seems certain their brief relationship was a warm one while it lasted. Hikhri Lhomi ( ♥ ● ) ( NPC ) - Sister One of Ahzra's daughters, closest to Ahzra'li's age. The two were quite inseparable as children, though it was not enough for Ahzra'li to seek her out upon his return to the Black Shroud. Reserved ( ♠ ♠ ) ( NPC ) - Reserved To be updated at a later date.

PC Y'ashe Bajhiri ( ♦ ✔) - Employer, mentor The owner and leader of the Raven's Nest. Upon meeting, Ahzra'li viewed Y'ashe with great deal of skepticism and uncertainty. In a short time, however, he grew rather fond of her. It was due to her charisma and warmth (and despite her protests of having neither of those traits) that he chose to stay with her organization and ultimately chose her to teach him her specific skillset. While he finds her mercurial nature at times frustrates him, he weathers her changing moods as he does for [likely] no one else. Ketsuchi Kotetsu ( ● ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance As Ketsuchi remains Y'ashe's right hand, Ahzra'li often finds himself in the same places as the other male, though it seems to be the entirety of their relationship. Ketsuchi's abrasiveness and reputation for violence has kept Ahzra'li from engaging him any closer than arm's length. It seems to suit the two well enough, however, considering both enjoy their space. Marcus Feral ( ♦ ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance A business partner of the Raven's Nest, whom Ahzra'li occasionally accompanies as a bodyguard. In spite of trying otherwise, Ahzra'li feels the most comfortable in Marcus's company. He feels an inexplicable, if vague, kinship between them, and tends to let his otherwise perpetual guard down around the man. Where he would bite his tongue for others, he speaks to Marcus. His words are not always in agreement, but in truth, it would take a great deal to peel Ahzra'li from the Captain's side. Dovienya Cuenn ( ● ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance Ahzra'li is not certain to make of Marcus's wife, and fellow business partner of the Raven's Nest. The noble arrogance and general disdain for most things has puzzled him more than annoyed him. Like Ketsuchi, it seems to be enough for him to give her room rather than force interaction. Anagna Kenesa ( ♦ ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance Ahzra'li and Anagna sought out employment at the Raven's Nest very close to the same time, and have since been tackling their initiations together. Ahzra'li finds Anagna's plain speech and [suspected] lack of ulterior motives to be a welcoming thing in an environment rife with intrigue. He hopes to develop a friendly kind of rivalry with the man, if only in an effort to keep both of their skills sharp. Rhel Belhi ( ● ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance One of Y'ashe's other apprentices. Though Ahzra'li does not know much about Rhel yet, it is clear to him that she and Y'ashe are both quite dedicated to each other, which puts him at ease. Initially, Ahzra'li found her meekness to be irritating, but has since come to appreciate her skills and competency. Sail Renacer ( ● ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance One of Y'ashe's other apprentices. Ahzra'li admires Sail for his tenacity and charisma, even if he doesn't quite understand what he is on about most of the time. Often, he tries to look beneath the other man's words to the true motive beneath them. Sail is one of the few Ahzra'li has gone out of his way to try to forge a positive relationship with, though it seems an understanding between them remains rather rocky. Fume Neneh ( ● ✔ ) - Business Acquaintance A woman in the employ of Marcus, whom Ahzra'li finds nothing short of baffling. Fume's bubbly, impulsive ways make Ahzra'li struggle for words more than usual. Her gleeful sadism is enough to make him wary and indulge her in whatever she cooks up. He is also reasonably sure that his attempt to offer her pragmatic conversation has resulted in her trying to get pregnant, which is terrifying.

Will

• Dark and sexual themes, violence, drugs/alcohol are all a-ok. To RP. Don't actually do drugs, they are bad for you.

Won't

• Obligatory no metagaming, godmoding, etc. Things that are IC should stay IC. I promise, I am a nice person IRL, and if I argue with you IC, I will still hug you OOC.
• I will NOT RP suicide plots. I will also not RP any plots with violence against cute cuddly creatures (Leave the puppies and kittens alone) or death/violence against children. This includes pregnancy/birthing problems. Be violent against all the adults, but that's it.
