Josario Adrial, or sometimes, much to his annoyance, known as Jojo, was born on the 25th Sun of the 1st Astral Moon. He is a tall Elezen of the Duskwight clan, hailing from Ishgard. He now travels across Eorzea trying to find a life for himself and put his skills to use. Although he has no place he specifically calls "home", he is more often than not found in Limsa Lominsa. He helps the Maelstrom Grand Company with their artillery and machines aboard their ships and such. He would like to consider himself neutral between each Grand Company, but Maelstrom holds a special place in his heart. Josario has never officially declared himself part of the Company, however.

Regardless of his talent in machinery, his greatest talents lie in the art of Magic. He's a skilled Arcanist and Summoner. He has a strong affinity for ancient texts and deciphering powerful spells.

Appearance

Complexion: He has pale gray skin littered with freckles and bruises.

Hair: His hair is naturally black, although after he left Ishgard, he had fully dyed it a light green and let it grow out. Currently, he has let the dye wash out and cut it short. His still-green bangs hang over his right eye.

Eyes: His eyes are light blue

Face: Across his face is a scar extending from his forehead to the bottom-right edge of his chin. His cheekbones are strong, while his cheeks are covered in dark freckles.

Body: Like most Elezen, Josario is tall with long and lanky limbs. His arms are quite toned along with his upper body. In contrast, his lower body and legs are slightly less muscular.

History

Ages 1-10

As a young boy, Josario grew up under a wealthy Ishgardian family. However, he rarely saw his parents for a reason he never understood until adulthood. He had a young retainer who kept him out of trouble and took care of him almost without a word. Josario always yearned to see his parents, though. As Josario went out and started making friends, he was eventually bullied out of each friend group for reasons he assumed to be his interest in magic. What really played out was the rumors about his family extending across the Pillars, where he lived, about him being an illegitimate child. As a young boy, he still didn't understand these attacks.

Ages 11-17

As he grew older, he felt he saw his parents less and less. Eventually he was without a single ally in all of Ishgard. His retainer continued to care for him without a word of praise or punishment. He eventually learned to care for himself around the age of 15. At that point in time, he found more of a home at the Skysteel Manufactory. He discovered a knack for tinkering and blueprint-reading there. He was offered a job as a junior Machinist, which he accepting whole-heartedly. The rumors of his birth were lost to him until the age of 17, where he ran into his mother in his house's foyer. Much to his fear, she mistook him for a servant boy and asked him his name.

He was wounded and confused by that encounter.

Ages 18+

At the age of 18, when he officially assumed himself as an Adult, he dismissed his aging retainer and became his own person. He found a new strength in himself derived from his loneliness and experienced hardships. He made quite a few new friends at the Skysteel Manufactory, but mostly worked on personal projects and tampered with his own weapons. He'd preform chores, but mostly nothing he didn't benefit from. One evening when he returned late after finishing up some tasks for his guild mates, he was almost immediately greeted with an attack from his family's servants. Thrown to the ground, he was met with the stern face of his father and the terrified one of his mother. Looking his father in the eyes, he saw only pain. His father absolutely recognized him, but didn't give way to the slightest hint he did. His mother, on the other hand, had no idea. Thrown on to the street, Josario was proclaimed a robber who tried to harm the gracious family of Adrial. With that, he left Ishgard and fled for a new place to call home. The truth of his birth was never known to him.

Personality

Josario is cold, mature and logical at first. He sometimes strays from the truth if he fears it may hurt anyone in any way, and distances himself from people. He tries to blend into a crowd and does not speak up much around strangers. He finds it best to be forgotten and derives comfort from tranquil spaces. He is quite introverted and dislikes crowds. If you're not close to him, you may learn his name, but nothing more. He will rarely allow anyone to get close to him. He has a dry sense of humor and is extremely uptight.

If you happen to get close to him, he has quite a comforting personality. He's always willing to lend a helping hand to his friends and is very touchy-feely. He turns into almost a big-brother type and looks out for his friends. Although his clinging may get annoying at times.
