Doctor Ebenezer Locklear

Ebenezer Locklear, born Ebenezer Gillead Luvarat-Locklear, is a wandering Elezen[1] man of undefined origins, often spending his time around the Ul'dahn[2] people whensoever he is not caught with his nose in a tome or scroll. Almost unusually friendly for what could be expected of an Elezen, Locklear does not possess the usual pride of his people, and views others as equals to himself more often than not, lest they give him reason to doubt. Between his studious silences and his almost mad ramblings, it is difficult to tell just what this man desires in life, yet he would tell you it is only to aide those in need, being the Doctor that he is.

Very little is known of his past, and he is aught but one to share such information about himself.

General Information

Appearance

Standing at about average height for an Elezen man, Locklear is nothing to gawk at at first glance.

With fair facial features rather typical of an Elezen, his gaze usually calm if not a little calculating due to his studious nature, the golden-hued orbs bare pupils that are unnatural for most Elezen, with an almost serpentine appearance to them, often gazing from behind a pair of thin-framed spectacles. High cheekbones, a strong yet smooth jawline, sturdy brow and well-kept beard give Locklear the general aura and appearance of having experienced much in his life, being knowledgeable despite his occasional ramblings. His face is framed by silken, copper-red hair that he tends to keep at shoulder-length and no longer, lest it become a bother when his skills are needed. Among the numerous scars that litter his body, his most notable would be the singular scar that rests over and below his right eye, offsetting the otherwise flawless features of the man.

His right arm bares extensive scarring from his elbow down, despite being often hidden beneath a long leather glove. Should this glove ever be removed, it would be seen that his arm had been lost in some way in his past, from just below the elbow and down being replaced with a magi-mechanical (operated by his mind and magics) prosthetic. It could even be argued that this piece of gear was Magitek equipment, perhaps linking him to some form of dealings with the Garlean Empire[3]. He wears the glove for the sake of others, lest they be put off by the appearance of it, and lest he get pestered about how it came to be.

Beneath his armours, Locklear bares a caster's form with a slim build, not quite muscular enough to dive into hand-to-hand or any other form of melee combat. Scars litter his entire body, the worst adorning his back and shoulders, and looking to be lashes from some form of whip, or whips, as the scars seem to vary in size, length, depth and general appearance, some being more jagged and rough than others.

Personality

It is nigh impossible to determine just how this man behaves on a day to day basis, as he never seems to stick to any particular set of mannerisms.

Some days, Locklear is friendly, talkative, and goes out of his way to aide others even if they are not particularly in need of aide. Anything from offering a few gil, to simple companionship and conversation, Locklear would seem like just about any other patron in The Quicksand or wherever else he may wander.

Yet on other days, Locklear can seem gloomy, almost brooding, while being lost within the recesses of his mind. Although still with a hint of that usually friendly nature, he is a little more difficult to associate with when in these phases, as he is far more intent on focusing on his work, whether it be physically carrying out said work, or simply planning the steps within his mind.

Overall, there is forever a hint of lunacy, the occasional ramblings or the restless fidgeting of one who could be considered nervous or anxious, as though hiding something in plain sight.

History

Locklear's known history is fairly uninteresting to most, and so he bothers not in telling.

An Elezen man from an unknown area, having travelled much in his life and finding himself almost settling in Ul'dah, although he still travels much regardless to aide others as well as gather supplies for his professions and hobbies. A Doctor by trade, it is clear he has trained for quite some years to be what he is now.


Without a doubt, his past is far more complex than being a simple, wandering Elezen. Getting him to speak of his past, however, is far more difficult than one might think, as he has trouble trusting anyone that is not himself.

Skills/Professions

Combat Skills

Locklear's combative skills consist primarily of the magics of a Thaumaturge[4], soon to be specialising as a Black Mage[5], dealing consistent damage revolving around the elements of fire and frost, as well as the occasional lightning spell to meddle with his opponent's nerves and motor skills.

Among his magical skills as a Thaumaturge, he also employ tactics of mind games to races and opponents that would be affected by such. Oft by observing his opponent for long enough, whether it be in or out of combat, Locklear is able to pick up on hints of a man's (or woman's) darkest fears and desires, using these to his advantage to mentally weaken and distract his opponent.

Primary Profession

Locklear's primary profession outside of combat revolve around his works as a Doctor. Specialising in psychology and psychiatry, it is no uncommon for anyone to see the man idling about the Quicksand observing its patrons, or speaking with a few individuals, often one on one, whom might seem shy or withdrawn.

However, the matters of the mind are not the only fields of medicine Locklear is practiced in. He takes great pride in the fact that he also practices physical, practical medicines, not being one to rely entirely upon magic to mend wounds like many-a healer. Everything from bandages and splints for simple injuries and broken bones, to surgery for more severe and grievous wounds, this Doctor is experienced in many fields, and is aught but shy to tell of such.

Hobbies/Habits

Hobbies

Outside of his usual work as a Doctor, Locklear has taken up several minor professions to pass what little time he has to spare, and of course has chosen more practical hobbies that, in turn, aide in his primary profession.

Out of many crafts that he could practice under the category of Disciples of the Hand[6], Locklear has set his focus to the crafts of a Weaver[7] and Alchemy[8], the latter of which he finds most useful as he is able to provide himself with potions, salves and other such medicinal items, oft supplied by ingredients and reagents that he gathers himself.

Habits

Locklear's habits are odd, to say the least. Some might even find some of what the Doctor does a tad.. off-putting.

Often, the Doctor can be found idling about the Quicksand in Ul'dah, observing the patrons silently as he watches, studies their mannerisms and behaviours, their own habits and ticks, as though making some form of mental list. Why he does this, exactly, is not entirely known. He often excuses it as he is observing others to better understand the workings of the mind, to further his ability to aide in mental illnesses and ailments. But there always seems to be something left out of his explanations.
