Naoh'ra is a priest of the Order of Nald'thal. He spends most of his time in Ul'dah filling out wills, selling graves, and doing the funerary rites for the fallen. He also takes up students from time to time, though he is very selective with this as his brand of thaumaturgy is not in combat, but in the old use of putting the dead to rest.
He is a member of a secret organization on the side. Naoh'ra is a traditional keeper despite the job, and worships Menphina. He travels a lot and lives in a small cave with Amadiaux in the shroud. He spends every full moon with his family for their monthly celebrations and rarely indulges in things from the city unless gifted to him. He hunts and has most of his clothes made for him by his family, and wears a lot of golds, silvers and other jewelry. He has fathered over 50 children in his time as a wanderer and continues to raise that number whenever he is accepted as a mate. He is rude and impatient at times, though when with friends he melts into something much more friendly and full of life and laughter. He is calm and understanding and tends to put others before himself in many situations (sometimes to the annoyance of a certain Hyur). Well rounded and successful, he is always seeking out new connections and situations that test his skill and drive.
Recently he had attempted suicide, and swears that Thal sent him back to the living world.
Family:
Naoh'ras Children:
Naoh'ra has 57 children (list here) with multiple mothers, and the number is rising. He loves each and every one of them, and tries to visit them as much as he can, however it is difficult to as they are so spread out over the realm. All of his children are currently living with their mothers.
Naoh'ra has been learning Thaumaturgy for many years.
He is currently working and living in coerthas, though he travels frequently to the shroud and Thanalan. It is hard to find him in limsa.
"A raging fire to cleanse the corpse; a freezing blizzard to halt corruption; a jolt of lightning to expel the sins of mortal life."
Some small Thaumaturgical facts below:
- Aether pools within ones self swell in times of intense fear and duress (fire 3/thundercloud procs anyone?? :D)
- There are 307 verses of funerary rites for the virtuous fallen.
- Thaumaturgy: The Yawning Abyss was written by Zozomaya.
- Priestess Mamane is strict about noise in the THM guild.
- The last will and testament of a patron of the Ossuary, which contains a vengeance order – a service provided by the thaumaturges whereby revenge is exacted upon who or whatever took the life of the deceased. Mostly these are acted out against the wildlife of Thanalan, such as stray billygoats or other attackers. Rarely will the Order deal with a murderer.
- Thaumaturges under the Order only accept laws from those with enough gil to 'pay a sultana's ransom', therefore they typically deal with the wealthy in ul'dah regarding the laws of the city.
- Should a Thaumaturge not have an appropriate amount of aether reserves within their body to work with, they are likely to end up killing themselves if they try to force more than a small flicker of flame of spark of lightning. Straining to get more aether from your reserves than you have can potentially ignite your very life blood, and in the worst case burn you alive from the inside out. (this is shown with black magic moreso than Thaumaturgy, however the principle is the same: too little aether you can safely work with coupled with trying to use too much to manipulate a spell = disaster for the caster, and a painful death.
- The Ossuary houses the order of nald'thal, and assists souls into Thal's realm. Thal does not only measure wealth in money, but in everything that the soul leaves behind in our world when passing on into his on their dying breath. This includes food, housing, gil, clothes, livestock, and anything else of value that you can't take with you into the after life.
(The following is information I have gathered on the Thaumaturges guild and the Order of Nald'thal from 1.0. a WIP for now!)
- Thaumaturges working with the Order are protected by the Order against vengeance deeds and wills, such as when a Thaumaturge exacts revenge on who or what had killed someone unnaturally and that now dead persons will requested vengeance, the Thaumaturge that executed them is protected from another coming after them in turn.
- Stated above, Thaumaturges of the ossuary will go through with vengeance wills for the Order of Nald'thal, and by taking on the burden of hatred and anger from the soul, it will be able to be at peace in Thal's realm. Compensation must me made in writing in the will before death for the deed to be carried out, as no payment will get services dismissed.
- Limsa is known for not liking the Order of Nald'thal, and it's hard to give them funeral rites because so many of them are lost at sea and without a corpse you can't really hold a proper funeral that the Order and Ossuary promises.
- All Thaumaturges under the Order must answer to it's laws, and can be executed by the Order if it comes to that. (such as murder, where a thaumaturge kills another outside of a vengeance will.)
- Your virtue is a measure of your very existence – your birth and station, childhood and (womanhood/manhood), knowledge and wisdom, power and wealth. Do not think wealth to be limited to the monetary. Wealth, to the Order, consists of all things a soul leaves behind when it departs this realm.
- Arrzaneth Ossuary guides its followers that they might leave as much in their wake as possible.
- The following is an example of a vengeance order: “My last will and testament… I hereby leave one third of my total estate to the Order of Nald’thal of the Arrzaneth Ossuary. In return for this consideration, I humbly request that my death be avenged should my days be cut short by unnatural causes.”
- (to be continued, I will be writing down all the dialogue from the quests as well as I find them and linking a post here about it! Thank you for your patience)
- 1.0 quest dialogue pt 1
- 1.0 THM sidequest revelry in rivalry dialogue
- 1.0 THM Law and the Order Dialogue
Naoh'ra is skilled in Thaumaturgy, and considers himself to be one of the more competent users.
He has a superb sense of hearing and scent. He only has good vision in the pitch darkness of night, any bright lights at all, even when exposed for long periods of time hurts his eyes and he can't see a thing.
He is pitiful in hand to hand combat and can be easily overtaken should anyone come after him, and he's quite easy to catch off guard when he is not actively engaged with something that calls for alertness, such as hunting. When working/studying, he can be easily startled.
Positive:
- Mhastoum Greingohtsyn: A wonderful friend to him. Naoh'ra is fascinated by his ears, and when he gets the chance he often plays with them. Their chocobo's are pair-bonded and inseparable, and currently the two gave them an egg to raise.
- Amadiaux Begnaud: More of a body guard than anything, the two are close friends, though not much is known about their relationship.
- Bahati Pashto: He ran into the Keeper woman shortly within Amadiaux's home after waking there. They spoke for a while and he finds her to be very learned and kind, and feels refreshed to have met a keeper who still holds tradition and strays from the cities. She painted his face for him and he proudly wears the tiny stars until he must repaint. Because of this, he feels a kinship and happiness being around her, and hopes he can hear stories of her travels.
- Fayre'a: Honestly one of his best friends. Loves him to death. Recently invited him into a romantic relationship.
- Mao'a Maleenon: His oldest son, they have recently met up once again and he is happy to be able to bond with his boy.
- Mipije Papije: A good friend of Naoh'ras, who taught and inspired him to read and write and seek out knowledge like no other. He also gave him a little ice box to carry his food in and he adores it. Serious, it's so useful!
- Nathaniel of Salem: Works with him under the Order of Nald'thal, as they are both priests. They are good friends and he thinks of them as being on good terms and they get along quite well. Naoh'ra feels a sense of kinship between them and holds him in high regard.
- Aran'sae Dia: One who naoh'ra holds very dear as both a friend and a love interest for a long time. Naoh'ra is beginning to presue the man once more, and hopes that he will be able to win him over as he had so long ago. If not, he is still a wonderful friend to him, and he hopes he can keep him close. Aran'sae is also going to try and regrow his leg over the next few moons.
Neutral:
- "Magus": He likes him, he is good to be around but conversation is hard. The hell is he saying half the time?
- "Fodder": He doesn't know how he feels about him, yet.
- Gehr'ir Ett: He is unsure how he feels about the miqo'te, though he is glad to have a student.
Negative:
- K'ovu Tia: Blew up his prosthetic, Naoh'ra hates hime.
Naoh'ra lost his left leg from the mid thigh down about 3 years ago. He most often wears a prosthetic.
He suffers from chronic pain where his leg ends, and when it is bad he can be completely incapacitated for a day and remain in bed. Often it isn't more than a dull pain, but when it hurts, it hurts.
- Naoh'ra speaks slowly to come off as calm and collected, though he can be easily irritated.
- He stares a lot.
- He often clenches his fists or fiddles with his hands.
- He had recently tried to create weapons that could bring thaumaturgy to other combat classes, but ultimately failed.
- Naoh'ra has a very hard time walking without his prosthetic, and mostly resorts to an odd hopping with the help of a cane.
- Naoh'ra sometimes has the tendency to 'burst into flame' when he's startled, the fright often sparking his fingers and on reflex he often either goes to throw fire or actually does, having once burnt off someones eyebrows and incinerated his cane in separate instances.
- Naoh'ra wears bright blue face paints that resemble the light of the moon, though uses purples when looking for a mate, and deep reds made from crushed Soldier's Sore berries when going into battle.
- The majority of his teeth are pointed, making chewing food difficult. So, he usually swallows food in large bites.
- He is touchy, and uses a lot of physical contact when speaking with men, and none when speaking with women.

Common Rumours(Easy to overhear):

- "He's such an ass sometimes."
Moderate Rumours(Moderately easy to overhear):
- "He has a tendency to eavesdrop, it's annoying."
- "Pretty sure he's dead."
- "He was yelling at the moon in the Shroud and Coerthas, serious he's crazy."
Rare Rumours(Difficult/rare to overhear):
- "I hear he's a part of some occult."
- "I heard he died a couple months ago, who is he around now?"

- "He's got a stick so far up his rear he could legitimately be called a miq'abob." -C'sanhsa Tia
- "The guy burned my shirt up...so attached his prosthetic to a fire work and blew it to pieces in the heavens." - K'ovu Tia
- "He's quite the quick reader, from what I've seen. I wonder if he could teach me that skill." - Lolohala Memehala
- "... He better have washed those urns he keeps ashes in or I swear to Nophica..." - Aran'sae Dia

- "He's got this air about him, it's cold, but not malevolent...is that wierd?" - Colson Rundall
- "A Keeper working for the Traders? Really, he is an odd thing to have as a colleague. But the man is more than dedicated, and falls - with me - in that handful of Priests of Nald'thal who keep on fighting corruption in the city. Trustworthy, I'd say. That is enough for me to tolerate him." - Nathaniel of Salem
- "I know for a fact he responds to 'Daddy'." - Rhuya'to Viqqoh
