Appearance

Mir'a stands at a meager 4 fulms, 10 ilms though alike others of his race, his body is proportioned well enough to not have his short stature look ungainly or unseemly. As result his hands are smaller than that of a hyuran male - as well as the width of his legs, torso and biceps. That’s not to imply that he doesn’t have muscle, however. He's hardly frail. Instead, his body is lean and well-toned, with not so much to suggest he goes to any effort to maintain it, but not so little it would indicate he hasn't seen battle. He's wiry - lean, tough. Sinewy. His ears are long, even for his kind. While it’s only really very apparent if he wears a coif or is caught in the rain, his ears can resemble a qiqirn's more than a miqo'te's. Those that touch them may notice the district feeling of scarred cartilage from many old, healed over piercings that span the length of his right ear - Bygone reminders of his past.

His skin is a very light grey, almost entirely desaturated, though can turn several shades warmer if he's given cause to blush. His hair is on the colder spectrum of grey, with highlights of silver- as if something turned it that way. Also his hair isn't hair at all - it's actually a very soft, very long fur; the same as on his tail. As such, it can be very unruly. More often than not it's worn long - not out of any form of statement, just neglect for his appearance while on the road. His right eye -- in stark contrast to the rest of him, burns gold in seeming defiance to his otherwise general lack of colour, gold eyes an indelible mark of his bloodline. His left is always concealed. From the center of his clavicle to his pelvis is a long, straight scar which, seemingly impossibly, is mirrored on his back.

Personality

A quiet individual who prefers to keep to himself.

While once a painfully shy person, Mir'a's lack of concern with Eorzean culture at large means that he no longer has much issue with shyness. However, his personality remains the same. He is still solemn - having an air of such even when he is attempting to be jovial. He is quiet and he is considered. He notices details, and he's certainly not one to try to stand out. Mir'a still possesses an intelligence far beyond that of most - even if he remains tight-lipped about his talents. His gait is the same as his personality. Light, considered. Observe Mir'a for any longer than a few minutes and you might notice that his movements are controlled, considered, and he doesn’t seem one to move when unneeded. Alike others of his kind, his tail and ears move freely as he speaks and are used to accentuate words, phrasing and add emphasis as a human would strain syllables. That, along with his bright eyes makes him somewhat of an open book. Mir'a has a few talents including very high intellect, and a wholly neutral perspective on the world. He is a skilled and shrewd tactician, educated in most aspects of warfare. Furthermore he is calm and very collected in the face of danger, usually operating with long term strategies in mind.

Mir'a is an overly analytical person, that can isolate others very easily when he's working. Given the fact that he's a Keeper of the Moon and nomadic at that, he also has a very pronounced lack of social skills. He has also been described as far too solemn in the past. He's fond of solitude - usually attempting to avoid contact with other people unless a situation absolutely calls for it. He enjoys reading in all of it's forms; be the material fact or fiction though has a special place in his heart for stories and myths. He dislikes Ul'dah, Limsa Lominsa, Gridania and Ishgard to extreme levels. He's well traveled, and he's visited all three, though finds them all as loud, dirty, and as corrupt as the other. Otherwise, he holds contempt for Eorzean Keepers of the Moon - be them Couerlclaw or Gridanian.

Abilities and Skills

Personal

The Tactician: A skilled and shrewd strategist, Mir'a is capable of formulating effective long and short term strategies. One to notice details, he excels at directing the flow of warfare, though has applied himself to performing advisory services for minor criminals within Eorzea.
Trilingual: Mir'a speaks Thavnairian as his native language, and is equally fluent in the Xaelic common tongue and Eorzean.
Occultist: Mir'a is versed in a few of the more occultist keeper of the moon practices, including ritualistic application of warpaint.

Weapons

Unknown to most, Mir'a is trained in the greatsword by a old travelling companion, a Xaela of the Dalamiq. He remains very secretive about the fact that he can defend himself, preferring to call upon his greatsword and the power of darkness in times of emergency. In regard to other Disciples of War, Mir'a is entirely and completely useless. He only managed to learn the greatsword because Tuva refused to give up teaching him and finally, it stuck.

Magic

Once an extremely powerful mage, Mir'a lacks any form of magic due to an incident in his past. He simply cannot manipulate aether any longer, from healing to offensive magic. It's lost.

Crafting

An excellent alchemist. Thavnairian by birth, Mir'a's knowledge of alchemy is heads and shoulders above Eorzean knowledge of such. In regard to other trades, not wonderful, though a passable woodworker and culinarian. * 'Magic' is conjury, thaumaturgy, and arcanism - as well as teleportation on aethernet or aetheryte. Dark magic is not affected, as it is not the manipulation of aether.
