General Information
Myosotis, in his younger years, simply didn't exist in Ishgard one day and appeared the next, young teen in arm and ready to live an honest life... at least that's what Myosotis would want you to believe. Anyone familiar with the rampant gossip of Ishgard would know that stories get you everywhere, and there's a reason why he was accepted into her walls so quickly. He currently works to set up a lounge for those who don't have a place to call home to find comfort in, and has set aside his past and let it rest to move on with his life... hopefully.
A future is not given to you. It is something you must take for yourself.

Hair & Eyes
As a Veena, Myosotis's hair and eyes shift through colours as the seasons change... at least how they do in Othard. During the winter, his hair and fur take on a snow white hue with sparse streaks of reddish-brown and his eyes darken to a coffee-like hue. During the summer, or what could be considered summer in Ishgard, he handles the irritating process of shedding his winter weight and reveals hickory brown hair decorated with signs of his age- grey and white roots and streaks- and his eyes brighten to a hazelnut shade. This process has become ritualistic, and happens no matter how long he's lived in Ishgard's weathers. He keeps a braided lovelock tied with a gold ribbon over his heart that he's taken care of since leaving Othard.
Physique & Markings
His body is fairly humanoid, however his legs are distinctly digitigrade, however on first glance it simply looks as if he walks on his toes. His hourglass figure is helped by this, and quite a lot of muscle in his legs has been cultivated with intent, while the top half of his body is kept similarly strong due to consistent use. It's visible to those who look for it that his body was once that of a well-disciplined soldier, and it wouldn't be hard to understand why.
Hygiene & Attire
He takes care of his physical self almost devoutly, taking up to an hour a day on making sure his hair, joints, and other faculties are well maintained. As he gets older, this is a habit he more than intends to keep, and one of the few he claims are his good habits. Due to the consistent low temperatures of Ishgard, and perhaps his own indulgences, he deeply enjoys formless and comfortable outfits. He'll dress up when the event calls for it, however in most other occasions he prefers casual over formal. Quite a few of his outfits are visibly work-worn and loved, and he tends to keep a somewhat monochromatic wardrobe.
Personality
Psychological Profile
In his youth, those who knew him would describe him as a standoff-ish character, though no less witty or accepting for it. He's a blunt man, he never beats around the bush, despite how much some would believe other approaches to certain situations would be better. Despite this, he's incredibly empathetic and generous, unable to turn a blind eye to those who are doing worse than he. He tends to offer advice even when it's not asked for, sometimes even doing things for other people to show them how it's done, being as close to a workaholic as you can get. These traits are quite new, however, something he's gained from being a caretaker of a child. The responsibility's changed him as a person, in both demeanour and personality, for better and worse. With the departure of his child from living under his roof (at least in age), he suffers somewhat from empty nest syndrome.
Voice
While one can hear him laugh, cry, or mimic animal noises, Myosotis is mute and uses exclusively Eorzean Sign Language, having fallen out of practice with Doma's dialect many years ago. Those who have ESL as their native language or are fluent in sign could describe his "signing voice" as drawled and lazy. This causes those new to the language to require clarification on some occasions, however he's more than happy to do so. He uses paper and pen in emergencies, and his handwriting similarly "sounds" like a weather-worn casual of a man. If he had to be assigned a voice, it would be William Houston's performance of Old Hunter Djura.
Philosophy & Mannerisms
Myosotis is, as of recent, quite a fan of the "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say it at all" rule... that is, unless you strike up quippy dialogue with him first, then it's fair game. He has a strict set of morals when it comes to the support of the house and community, quite a lot of it stemming back to the Green Word, despite how much he'll claim to be suffocated by his place in it. He always sticks to his truth, and as such, will never count deception among his sins, no matter the beliefs of others. The man isn't particularly religious, not even for Halone, however he is deeply superstitious. He wears lucky jewelry, keeps a routine to even his mind, even the lovelock shows this habit. Without a voice, he's deeply expressive in his body, comparable to that of a tolerant bear.

OOC Note
I tend to follow the guidelines of DnD 5e's attack orders and such, and I don't actually know how most people roleplay fights in FFXIV, so this will change and drastically.


History
The tales of Myosotis's existence are stark contrasts of one another... that is, if you know which names to look for. Such is the nature of a Viera raised in his prime running from Garlemald's empirical rule, Myosotis is one of many names, titles, and epithets assigned to the existence of the man. Circumstance kept him in one place, and now he tends to stay in that spot, cured of his wanderlust and early convictions with the presence of a mouth to feed at home... even if only for a few years.
Disclaimer: The true identity of the Snowdrift Dragoon, especially with the new populations of Viera, is under heavy debate in the spaces he comes up in. Unless we talk beforehand or your character naturally learns that he is Myosotis, even the existence of the character of the Snowdrift Dragoon shouldn't be common knowledge.

Rumors
NPC Rumors

Some of these rumors are untrue, speculation, or are greatly exaggerated.

◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely!
"That Beauhiver man? I couldn't tell you where he came from. The name's Elezen, but he just showed up out of nowhere with a child that looked like she'd seen Nidhogg himself. He's got no family here other than her." — Forgotten Knight Regular (Ishgard - The Forgotten Knight).
"I always try to find wherever he works so I can get more of his food. It's food for the soul, I'll tell you that much." — War-worn Elezen (Ishgard - The Pillars).
◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first!
"I always see him look away when the Snowdrift Dragoon hits ears. Doesn't seem like he's very fond of the story. I wouldn't be either, if I were in training while it was at its peak." — Retired Temple Knight (Ishgard - The Pillars).
◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using!
"No dragoon survives as long as he has without hearing their voices. What else would he have been doing when he went absent during training?" — Veteran Temple Knight (Ishgard - Foundation).
"I've yet to hear it myself, but if you go far enough in Dravania, supposedly you can hear the ghost of the Snowdrift Dragoon singing in the wind." — Chocobo Handler (Tailfeather).

Feel free to add your own rumors to this section.

The following items are things that this individual carries on their person at all times. These are noted for pickpockets, and those watching her closely.

RP Limits
I like to consider myself a flexible player who is willing to commit to a number of different types of scenes and role-play scenarios, but even I have my limits. If something is on the play list, assume it means yes, as long as it's within the context of the current play or ongoing plot. No's are typically a hard no, and it means don't ask.
I will play .

RP Hooks
While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. Longer plots that are meant to run for more than a few quick RP's, please feel free to send me a tell so we can work out a good reason for our characters to get to know one another. I'm always looking for RP, unless I'm actively spamming PvE content.

Player Note
There is a lot of information on this character wiki, but it is by no means completely comprehensive. There are chunks of backstory that are left intentionally vague so that details can be later added as developed through creative writing or in role-play revelation. Feel free to use Common or Uncommon rumors freely, if you want to use a Rare Rumor as a plot hook or to spark RP, I would ask that you send me a tell first, to make certain it's alright.
