Personality

Fen is a happy-go-lucky, simple and at times, rather dim seeming individual. A smile is always on his face, even in the most dire of times, and he is usually the first to make a fool of himself in any situation he finds himself in. Whether that be waving at the enemy or simply making a fool of himself in social situations. Ever the loveable giant, Fen is a compassionate person, who tries his best to make everyone around him happier for his presence. At times, he finds himself in the role of the advisor for people, a role he is not overly sure or comfortable with, and will usually end up describing things in very round about manners using things that the person asking for advice likes (trees, meat, you name it). Still, he tries his best.

In battle, Fen is a mage of some capability. While early in his life his aether has caused him great problems in mustering the 'potency' required for many spells, recent events have unlocked his potential, allowing him access to a much greater pool of energy for spell casting. Oddly, this power scares Fen, and the more he practices the thaumaturgic artes, the more he fears them. Fen's personal endeavour is to find a school of magick which fits him a goal he is yet to accomplish.

Appearance

Fen is usually wearing simple clothes. He prefers robe like shirts, but not to have a large amount of cloth flapping about his legs. He is always seen wearing his sturdy boots, given to him by his father, and usually dresses in blacks, blues and whites. While light armoured, Fen is particularly nimble for his size having been raised as a performer and dancer for the majority of his young life, as a result of this, he prefers clothing in which he can move fluidly.

History

Abandoned as a babe near the Ishgard border, The Wandering Moogles, a travelling performance group, happened upon the helpless child. Daveck Taveck, leader of the troupe, took in the child and returned with his brothers to Gridania, where upon they adopted the boy as their own, and raised him as a Gridanian child. Fen'rin grew up in a loving environment, raised by his Father and four uncles of varying races. As a result however, the boy grew up with a very distorted view of racial norms for the land, as well as being somewhat protected and sheltered while growing.

Fen'rin's aptitude for magicks became apparent at a young age, starting to conjure ice and lightning at the age of five. While he had no direct thaumaturgy instruction, his inquisitive nature and tenacity proved to be a valuable asset, allowing him a modicum of control over the elements. He soon began applying them to his and his family's acts on stage.

As the lad grew, his sense of wanderlust grew with it. Adventurers who came to see the shows of the Moogles began to take his interest, and he sought out how to join the guild, however, before he could leave, the Calamity struck. While his family was spared, many of their friends were not. The Moogles spent much time after the calamity entertaining those who remained alive, attempting to bring at least a spark of joy into people's lives. It was only at the age of twenty that Fen'rin finally managed to leave his family troupe, and became an adventurer.

After arriving in Limsa Lominsa, and having been mugged, lost all his money and possessions, Fen eventually found his way to Aleport, where he chanced upon the 81st Foreign Levy. He was bought food, and taken under their wing with the promise of training him in Thaumaturgy, as well as several jokes about his would be best friend Onuma being able to fire lazerbeams from her eyes (he still believes this to be true, even now).

From there on, Fen'rin has been with the 81st, acting as one of the Company's thaumaturgists,however, recent events are swaying his course, and he may yet leave the arte behind, as he seeks to find his purpose anew.

Connections

"You know, I always thought that the adventurer's life might be a little lonely, but it seems I was wrong!"

Romantic / Platonic Attachments:

Dawson Colwell - ROMANTIC INTEREST - While Dawson had been a constant personality around the estate and in Fen's general dealings with people, the current closeness the two have had due to Fen's health has certainly sparked something in the young Roegadyn's heart. While he is extremely unsure of what he's doing with anything regarding Dawson, he still feels that it is the right thing for himself. Dawson's affections emerged at a difficult time for Fen, and as a result he is still trying to process them, but he's happy to have Dawson around him so frequently of late. Still, he can't let his heart get in front of his head, and feels that if anything is to happen, they must learn more of eachother as well as deal with the current outlying issues in Fen's own life.

Onuma Ahntifi - PLATONIC LOVE - Onuma, to Fen, is quite possibly one of his most loved friends. He considers her family and will do practically anything for her. Having bonded as friends after the tragic loss of her lover, Fen and Onuma are nigh on inseparable at the best of times these days. He respects her advice and her tenacity on the battlefield and would not trade their friendship for anything.

Y'lyfriel Sikah - PLATONIC LOVE - Fen sees Lyf as both a mother figure, and a sister at the same time. The woman commands a presence about her, likely from being a mother, that Fen can't help but listen to as if she were a parent. However, at times, the pair of them show their youth together, playing pranks on unsuspecting members of the public, or just laughing about the most inconsequential things. Fen respects Lyf a great deal and considers her and extremely close friend.

Rhesh'ir Zhwan - PLATONIC LOVE - Ah, Rhesh'ir, one of the 'dad cats' that reside within the 81st. Rhesh'ir is Fen's captain, and often a person he finds himself confiding in of various things. He respects Rhesh'ir a great deal, and considers him a father figure within the company, as well as a good friend. Fen enjoys his time with Rhesh'ir, even if much of it is spent with Fen being red faced from something Rhesh'ir has said or done. In short, Fen quite frankly loves Rhesh'ir and hopes he will never change.

The Wandering Moogles - PLATONIC LOVE - Fen's adoptive family consisting of his adoptive father Daveck Taveck, a highlander, his brother Riker Taveck, also a highlander, and three uncles Ariko Karakiko (Deceased Lalafell), Aurfenoux (Deceased Duskwight Elezen) and O'rhen Tia, a Miqo'te. Fen loves all of his uncles dearly, and regards each with the utmost respect that any child can have for their parents.

Other Relations:

Rah'na Lihzeh - POSITIVE - Fen quite likes this Miqo'te. He's a nice sort, somewhat soft and a bit timid, but he means well, and has tried his best to help Fen with various problems over the time he's known him, even if some are a little unorthodox methods.

Kodaro Ba'rococo - NEUTRAL - Not quite sure what to make of Kodaro as of yet, Fen tries to treat the man with respect, but also some uncertainty. While he is not put off by the man, he does at times scare him.

Kikira Kira - POSITIVE - Fen likes Kiki a lot, she's a positive influence on many of the 81st and a pleasure to talk with. She also seems to have not a mean-hearted bone in her body, except of course when dealing with a certain Professor.

Seda'li Tayuun - NEUTRAL - Fen hasn't had much interaction directly with Seda'li, but he knows that he is Rah'na's mate, and that makes him at least ok in Fen's book as he doubts Rah'na would keep any particularly cruel company.

Lynn'wo Vahnal - NEUTRAL - Lynn is a person Fen isn't quite sure how to handle. On one hand, he seems a free spirit and a somewhat happy go lucky individual, but on the other, Fen has been the target of his jokes several times. He tries his best to keep his cool when he becomes the target of one of Lynn's jokes, but at times, he wonders if it's because Lynn dislikes him that he is often the victim.

Fyrilsunn Fiandoensyn - NEUTRAL - Fyril seems often to be a particularly strong willed, and strong armed, man. Fen has seen him in battle a few times, and respects his capacity for battle, though he has not had overall many interactions with him.

Shoshopu Shopu - POSITIVE - Shopu, like Kikira, seems to be a constant source of happiness and joy around the estate, even when faced with difficult challenges, she seems to continue to be cheery. Fen likes and respects her for that.

Trisselle Rondelet - NEUTRAL - Trisselle both terrifies and inspires Fen. His first interaction with her was absolutely awful, due mostly to Fen's incompetence and misunderstanding of her wording. However, recently she has come to be of extreme aid to himself and he sees the woman as an ally as well he should. He hopes in time, he may make up for his mistakes and count her a friend.

Leo Arkwright - POSITIVE - Fen likes Leo. The blonde haired warrior seems to be a positive force within the company and an able combatant. Fen hasn't had a whole lot of time with the man, but what he has had has left a positive impression in his mind.

Vesna Novaar - POSITIVE - Fen has only had a few interactions with Vesna, but he finds it hard to dislike the woman. Onuma seems to think highly of her and so he is quite happy to feel perfectly comfortable around her.

Lahn Flaval - POSITIVE - Lahn was one of Fen's first friends when he began adventuring, and soon after began teaching her to dance, in turn, she taught him some arcanima. Though Fen hasn't really seen Lahn in a good while, he still holds a positive view of the woman.

Ralamano Nulumano - POSITIVE - Fen regards Ralamano with a combination of respect and a little bit of fear. The man may be small in stature, but he is a particularly skilled arcanist and a brilliant tactician. While Fen hasn't had a whole lot of personal contact with him, he feels that Ralamano has proven himself time and time again to be a positive force.
