Kira Exjeiah
☽
— Kira Exjeiah — The Silver Mage An enigmatic mage of delicate, epicene beauty, robed in shimmering silver, the Keeper's mystique is quite enthralling. Few are those he considers close friends, and fewer still are those to have ever glimpsed beneath his illusory mask.

General ✨
Kira is slightly taller than average for a male miqo'te, at a little over 5'5", with a lean build befitting his identity as a mage averse to physical combat. His skin is a flawless porcelain, his eyes a captivating, liquid gold; his hair and tail, silky and feathered, are pale blonde. Kira takes care to maintain his appearance, including the use of makeup such as eyeshadow, eyeliner and lip paint; his nails are always perfectly manicured, and usually finished with glossy dark polish. Scent is important to Kira, and he always ensures that his own scent is as elegant as his looks, typically favouring a delicate jasmine fragrance.
Voice ✨
Kira speaks with a smooth, soft voice combined with a refined accent befitting of a man raised by a Lady of Ishgard. He never shouts, his voice ever remaining calm and even; in anger his voice becomes yet softer and effortlessly threatening.
To the outside world, Kira, seems to be the very model of elegance; suave, polite, charming, confident and alluring. This is, however, a mask that he has cultivated. Behind the façade, Kira is still emotionally shattered from the loss of his childhood love, and has not truly loved another since. Although he is mostly cordial, he can be coldly calculating and manipulative, freely using charm and seduction to get what he wants. He is rarely actively malevolent, rather guided by his own set of morals. By Kira's logic, charming or seducing a target to obtain information from them brings them happiness due to the affection and brings him the information he desires; the thought that he is toying with their hearts would scarcely make sense to him.
Those grey morals make Kira a character of contrast. To those he does genuinely value, the ones he considers to be his true friends, Kira is caring and highly loyal, willing to do almost anything to keep them safe and content. To those he considers his enemies, those he considers to be sub-human, Kira is utterly cold and lethally cruel; he has no qualms about hurting or killing those who oppose him, at which point his more sadistic traits come to the fore.
Naturally intelligent and raised by a highly driven scholar, Kira is well educated. He learns quickly, has an excellent memory, and has a good understanding of the subjects that were Lady Aveline's passion, specifically alchemy, arcanima and Allagan history. He hungers for knowledge and ever seeks to uncover and master lost techniques and arts.
Kira is not without vice, the most notable being lust and his love of luxury.

- ♦ "Prefers to work alone in the field, but he gets results, so it's not for me to question his methods." -- Maelstrom Officer
- ♦ "Strange to hear a Miqo'te speaking with such a refined accent. Almost Ishgardian." -- Bobbing Cork patron
- ♦ "He looks like a dandy, but he seems nice enough. And I've met enough thaumaturges to know better than to cross a mage." -- Idyllshire adventurer
Occasionally Heard Rumours
- ♦ "Don’t know much about him, but he speaks well and he tips well. Often see him taking a tia back to his apartment when he visits..." -- Quicksand waitress
- ♦ "Oh, he's a pretty one! He must be rich, too, he always smells sweet and he's always dressed well. Always carries a fancy tome with him, too. I wonder where he got it, it's like nothing I've ever seen!" -- Drowning Wench barmaid
- ♦ "He's skilled, but I can't say just how skilled. He keeps his cards close to his chest, I don't believe he's ever shown us what he can really do." -- Arcanist's Guild trainer
- ♦ "I see him around quite regularly, got a real interest in the dig site and the Allagan relics. I guess he would do, being a summoner. Seems like he's friends with several of the summoner historians, too. I think he's bedded a few of them..." -- Son of Saint Coinach
Rarely Heard Rumours
- ♦ "Exjeiah... Hm, they were the Miqo'te line that served House Seleniaux, since Lady Aveline first came from Ishgard many years ago. When she died a few years back, there was just the boy, Kira. She lost her son a couple of decades ago, you see, so she had raised Kira like her own. I never saw much of them, though. Lady Aveline was always secretive, she was a scholar but I never knew what of. She left her fortune and research to the boy. He rents the manor to an Ul'dahn family and lives in La Noscea now." -- Elderly Gridanian clerk
- ♦ "Ah yes, the Miqo'te summoner. That grimoire and the Allagan gear he wears are priceless. He says they are heirlooms. If you ask me, they should be in our collections, not in use. But they are not stolen from us, I checked, so there is nothing that I can do about it. Now, if you will excuse me." -- Son of Saint Coinach
- ♦ "I remember a while back one of the Brass Blades Captains knocked him down in the street, demanding payment for some made up charge or other. Business as usual in Ul'dah, you know? He paid the Captain and went on his way, incident over. Thing is, that evening the Brass Blade Captain burned to death in a fire at his apartment. One witness said she saw the shadow of a clawed demon in the window, but I reckon it was just the smoke. No evidence the miqo'te had anything to do with it, of course. I bet he wasn't sad to hear about it, though!" -- Ul'dahn merchant
- ♦ "I saw him standin' in the shadows once, just watchin' the folk goin' about their business. But... well, it wasn't like a man lookin' at his fellow men. It was more like a predator watchin' its prey. Gave me the creeps, it did." -- Revenant's Toll trader
