Profile

Appearance

J'khobi has long, jet-black hair with blond tips. His right eye is red while his left eye is violet and his cheeks are marked with simplistic tattoos. Growing up under the Sagoulii sun have darkly bronzed the skin of the seekers from Khobi's nomadic Jackal tribe. He can usually be seen wearing a white or cyan hempen undershirt with a brightly colored lace bow tied around his neck. He also wears nature colored culottes, leather shin guards, shoes and finger-less gloves. His medic outfit is vastly different: Sterile while and black gloves, tight leggings, and boots are worn to not only aid in handling most wounds, but prevent infection and blood from touching his skin. His white robs is especially unique; adorned not only with fancy white, black, and gold design, but also aetherial crystals to assist J'khobi if his own stores of aether are lacking. His prized possession, which the seeker wears on his forehead, is a custom-made tri-lens aetherometer than will display approximate aetherflow of whomever or whatever he is viewing. One of the lens appears to be faulty, however, as J'khobi cannot figure out it's function. The medicinal ensemble was a gift to the seeker after he cured the grand-daughter of Doctor Boris Lazarius from a rare strain of aetherial poison. The equipment belonged to the highlander doctor's son, who had died in the Calamity of the Sixth Astral Era.

Personality

"Has not been the same, ehe, uh... no. No! Not since the deserrrt. Find, I do, solace in healing otherrrs. Mebbe, as I do this? Heal myself, I do." -J'khobi Tia

J'khobi is a very jittery miqo'te. His ears and tail often twitch at some invisible irritation and he has difficulties making sentences without stuttering or cackling to himself. The wide-eyed seeker sometimes has no sense of personal space or decorum as he examines strangers and their equipment with genuine fascination, often accidentally blinding them with the light given off by his aetherial optic. He flinches when touched and sometimes will stare into space for minutes at a time. His anxiety aside, J'khobi usually never hesitates when his services are needed and makes himself available to be there for his friends. While generally cheerful, he conceals his worries and loneliness to all except friends who ask him. It is the miqo'te's belief that as he cures the wounds of strangers and the world, he will simultaneously cure himself of his innate sorrow and wavering sanity.

Combat

Specialization

Arcanist : It was a rare thing indeed for a seeker to be born with such high aetherial quantity and the nuhn of his tribe, J'rhaskir, did not hesitate in making J'khobi a valuable asset. Training from a young age, J'khobi was given selective reading and writing education and, of course, instruction on how to manipulate aether with an arcanist grimoire. Specifically, J'khobi studied the affects of aetherial poison from a traveling scholar named Zuzogin Zukagin. The seeker can bestow aetherial infection and remove it using the ink in his tome as a conduit with aetherflow and deal unaspected damage with his "aetherial ribbons." Aside from offensive magicks, Khobi also deals heavily in the curative nature, providing succor to what ails his comrades and protecting them with magic shielding. His specialty, of course, is the remedying of poison, aetherial or otherwise. He was given a lot of practice in his life as a Tia from the sagoulii desert as his nuhn would overdose on drugs and poison alike and have Khobi heal him. J'rhaskir would repeat this often saying, aside from combat, this act made him feel more alive than ever.
