Biography

Early Life

Doman herritage flowing through his veins, born in the tree covered land of gridania in hiding with his mother. Isen spent the first several years of his life fairly normally despite being seen as outsiders among the Gridania natives, unaware of the history surrounding his mothers past. But like all things it came to an end, Isen's mother developed a bitterly slow and terminal illness that saw his childhood turn from any other to one of early responsibility, caring for his mother whilst seeing to the chores.

After her passing at 9 years old orphaned, it seemed certain that no one was going to lay any claim to the young Hyur and perhaps he'd actually have been better off that way. Fate would have it that his grandfather would retrieve the boy, but not in person of course, hiring scouts to bring back a commodity he felt was now his to lay claim to. Making the long journey to the snow covered plains of Coerthas was where Isen's training began under the command of his grandfather, the very person his mother was hiding from. A very brutal teacher of martial arts and ninjutsu, where incompetence or failure were no option and met with harsh punishments. Isen's stubborn nature kept him alive through trails that should have seen him perish in the elements, along with sharp skills and quick thinking. Trained as an a spy and assassin for the imperial empire, cold, callous and uncaring to anything but his cause, shaped and moulded to serve the empire at the demand of his grandfather to follow his footsteps. Around this period in time, Isen heard cries for help from a moderately familiar voice, investigating he found an Elezen cornered by several vicious creatures determined to consume the fragile male. Although never having formally met, Isen recognized this person from the near by village and against his training, everything the hyuran had been taught the ninja intervened saving the Elezen from a certain death, wounded by the intense battle the pair returned to the village. Samuru became Isen's closest friend despite the midlanders a best efforts to shunt any ties with the Elezen, Samuru's persistent and genuinely kind approach paying off.

Garlean Empire

Isen will not openly talk about time spent with the enemy both for obvious reasons as well as his own regrets and misdeeds, some have haunted him more than others. After having been forced to be part of the Garlean Empire for some time, the hyur managed to escape, returning to Coerthas and taking the life of his Grandfather. It would be this event that would cause both Isen and Samuru to leave Coerthas.

Character

Appearance

White/gray mid-length scruffy hair, blue eyes Tall for a midlander (taller than the game would allow, around that of a short Elezen) Traditionally, with a large scar going across his nose diagonally, though in game currently it's a mark on his nose in mouth (the other face didn't suit him) Isen has many marks on his body particularly across his back, more than one would have from traditional combat, perhaps made with a cane.

Personality

Usually more of the quiet type at first, calculated in his manner and watches others closely, but it doesn't take long for the smart mouth flirt to come around seeming to show a highly confident individual, though not everything is quite how it first seems.

Powers and Abilities

• Weapon Proficiency (Daggers): Weapon of choice finding them more fluid of a style given the large degree of agility used in his combat, speed being another large factor against a more heavy handed opponent

• Weapon Proficiency (Unarmed): Isen having had extensive training unarmed from an early age is deadly in his own right weaponless.

• Weapon Proficiency (Rope dart): Although not in play in FFXIV Isen would have trained heavily with a rope dart, using the large circles and complicated patterns, a secondary and effective weapon.

• Weapon Proficiency (Wires): another ancient tradition passed down to this ninja requiring careful forethought, patience and technique one can be highly effective slicing in suspecting opponents.
