Deity Nald'thal, The Traders

Marital Status Single

Nameday 27th Sun of the 5th Umbral Moon
Nonotome is a thaumaturge of the Arrzaneth Ossuary and a devout priest of the Order of Nald'thal. He lives in the Ossuary chambers within Ul'dah and can most frequently be found there, sweeping. While he does venture out into open Eorzea on holy missions for the Order of Nald'thal, he prefers to stay in his home city-state, helping the citizens of Ul'dah.
The now-priestly thaumaturge has a small range of unexpected skills and is naturally very self sufficient, even going back to his childhood as a wanderer of the Sagolii Desert. He has a respectable local knowledge of the happenings within Thanalan, and a worrying knowledge of what goes on under cloak and dagger. He always had a taste for secrets since the cradle and to this day he immerses himself in dangerous knowledge for the thrill of it, ranging from the work of brigands to misbegotten efforts of run-away rogue mages and cults.
He does not belong to any Free Companies.
Current Duty: Weigh the sin of the faithful.
Current Location: Arrzaneth Ossuary, Uldah.
Status: Concerned for a friend.

Height: 3 fulms 0 ilms

Weight: 40 ponz

Complexion: Dark, Swarthy.

Hair: Black.

Eyes: Red.

Nonoface.png
The swarthy thaumaturge has smooth, youthful features that betrays his true age. He has a healthy, dark complexion and deep red eyes with thick, dark lashes lining them. A pair of well-kept eyebrows sit right where they belong. His nose is a small button of darkened pigment that's many shades darker than the rest of his sun-darkened skin, a pattern also found at the tips of his elongated ears. His hair is pure, black and has a healthy sheen to it, often tied up in a bun so it doesn't tumble down to the small of his back. Overall, could very well be described as handsome, or even a well put together, well bred individual of good blood.
He often wears a dusting of make-up over his features which is seen most prominently in the dark shadowing around his eyes, likely to make them stand out. They are his most noteworthy feature, remarkable for their vivid color, the dark black rings that surround them and the cold stare that they convey, juxtaposed to the fiery warmth of their hue. He wears a traditional Dunesfolk gem upon his forehead and is rarely ever seen without it, a metal setting with a small red gem affixed that shares his eye colour, baring a crystalline gleam like his glossy Dunesfolk lenses.
His frame could only be described as average. He is slightly taller than the average Lalafell, though only by the the barest ilm or two. The thaumaturge is covered from head to toe in scars, brands and other signs of hard labor. Most are concealed beneath a dusting of make-up or heavy clothing.
Nonotome has a calm, deep voice. It often catches people that don't know him off-guard.
Smells like fragrant, scented smoke. Pleasant, but hard to place exactly what it is.
Nono2nono.png
First Contact
Nonotome can come across as cold and aloof. He rarely ever gestures and when he speaks his voice carries minimal feeling. He is a monotome statue that only offers the smallest of smiles out of formality, only to make those that he speaks to know that he is making a real effort of be social. His actions, or inactions make him seem as if he is divorced from society, as introverted as one could possibly be. His words strike at the heart of any situation and he is not afraid to speak his mind regardless of the consequences, albeit in as few words as possible. He is more tolerant around those of faith and will opt to debate over cause conflicts.
He is quiet and kind, but direct as well. He wishes to help others and will often come across as intrusive and tactless.
In Good Company
With company that he is comfortable with, trusts or has pledged to assist he will act with more care and warmth, though the underlying coldness exists in all of his actions. He makes more of an effort to connect with others and get to know them on a deeper level, though no matter how hard he tries there is always somewhat of a distance and there's a sense that he's trying his very hardest not to make the people he cares for uncomfortable. He is driven by his personal code as well as his religion and will be generous, supportive and protective but will always expect to be paid back for anything he has gone out of his way to do. Fair is fair, even among friends.
Under his calm stoic guise, there's a hint of impish roguishness about him that's rarely seen by those that he considers less than a close friend.

Flaws

ZEALOUS - Faith shall guide him to do many things, both good and bad.
SUPERSTITIOUS - Preconception and tradition over logic and reason.
DIRECT - If there is something that needs to be said or done, he will say it. He will do it.
VENGEFUL - May forgive but never forgets. All actions must be paid for in kind.

Fears

THE UNDEAD - The perversion of life and death frightens him to no end.
THE TWELVE - Fears the wrath of the twelve, all that he has can be taken away just as easily.
PUNISHMENT - He will do everything in his power to prevent punishment from the law and his superiors.

Talents

GOOD WITH ANIMALS - Affinity and cares for animals, stemming from his childhood as an Aldgoatsherd.
SCHOLASTIC - Naturally very good at absorbing information, reading and learning.

Nonotome is a characteristically fleet Lalafell, quick of body and mind. When in combat he will aim to keep his distance from his would be attackers while remorselessly hailing down powerful destructive spells upon them. His focus is that a good offense is a good defense and will opt to draw upon his thaumaturgy to overpower his opponents and destroy them outright instead of dedicating spells to defend himself. When fighting against targets of ranged capabilities, he holds fast and confidently strikes at them without moving an ilm from his spot, destroying spells and projectiles that come his way with his own. Should the distance be closed by the more physically-minded he will defend himself by casting quick, short ranged spells of a lower potency to scathe, manipulate and debilitate his opponents while dodging out of the way, several of the techniques formulated by himself through his long years as a gladitorial thaumaturge.

While he may be quick and his spells powerful, his mortal shell cannot handle very much punishment. A single good strike can break the poise of the diminutive thaumaturge and leave him out of action. Even toughened by the tribulations in his past life, he cannot comfortably withstand very much without the aid of his magic, though his sheer willpower will often not let him rest and may lead him to ruin by pushing his diminutive form beyond its limits.

While he is a trained thaumaturge, is bound to be unpredictable. Even if it means breaking The Yawning Abyss' Threat of Intimacy. He has what regular thaumaturges will not and will use his brigandry background to give him an edge where he can. He will jump and climb onto taller foes, throw sand and fight as dirtily as possible to ensure the success of his missions and the defeat of his foes. Honor is for dead mages and thieves among one another - And he is a thief no longer.

While he is confident at fighting many foes toe to toe with his magic, he very rarely try to engage in melee combat and will instead opt to ambush his opponents at every given chance, especially in a location where he can use the environment to his advantage.

Weapons

SILVER SCEPTER - An unremarkable staple among the thaumaturges of the Ossuary. He is a proficient thaumaturge with many cycles of experience behind him.
CROOKED DAGGER - A small dagger with a crooked tip, likely a kind used by unsavory folk. A memory, perhaps? A last resort, certainly.

Magic

THAUMATURGY - Natural talent for destructive spells.

"The privileged elite of the golden city in the sands wander past their walls and into the watchful eye of the Gods upon a road built of the smallfolk, by the smallfolk. They think that they can do what they want to anybody they see as beneath them. Surely there are no consequences for treading on the ones that are just trying to get by a thousand malms from home. Perhaps nobody will notice? Perhaps they're right. I will make them regret that."

About your character's adulthood, pre- or post-Calamity.

Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC! Some of these rumors may be untrue or greatly exaggerated.

Common Rumors (Easily overheard)

"That little guy? Seems like he's always on business to me. Even comes to Pearl Lane to preach the word of Thal." ~A Curious Pearl Lane Vendor.
"He has the stench of poverty about him, it must be the all of the time he spends around the poor. Maybe he's poor himself? Shameful for a Thaumaturge!" ~A Wealthy Merchant in Rustings Strip.
"I've never seen him blink. Have you?" ~A Local Market-goer.

Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear)

"Didn't you see it? There I was, havin' a drink with my pals outside the Coffer 'n' Coffin when this Lala bugger wandered up the road from Ul'dah and just stood a few yalms 'way, starin' at us! Bloody spooky in his black robes if you ask me but that ain't the worst of it. Felt like it was starin' into our souls, like he was studyin' us. Some drunk bloke come burstin' outta the place but it didn't look like he was lookin' for trouble, probably just lookin' for his chocobo, right? Yeah well, they locked eyes, him and the thaumaturge. Was quiet for an eyelash but before I could blink, the man was a pile of ashes and the robed bloke was already walkin' away. Didn't even say a word..." ~A Thanalanian Miner.
"He looks real familiar... Real familiar. Looks a lot like one of the gladiators that used to fight 'round here. Died on his first match, poor sod. Hope they ain't related, he must be crushed by it." ~A Seasoned Gladiator.
"That Lalafell is such a miser! He won't separate from so much as a gil without a promise that the coin will be returned in kind. I was just beggin', I don't want to go to the bleeding Ossuary to sweep up and earn it. What if I never come back out?" ~A Paranoid Vagrant.

Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard)

"It takes a true sinner to see the sin in others. Few know this better than Brother Nonotome." ~A Wizened Thaumaturge.
"I heard that the Ossuary pulled him from the streets as a child and filled his head with scripture. That's all he knows! The poor guy can't think for himself! Don't feel sorry for him, he'd sooner kill you than speak to you if his superiors told him to. He's two-faced and deceptive, like all of them Thaumaturges." ~A Hastily Departing Adventurer.
"What an empty shell of a man, what happened to him? To think that he used to be so full of fire when the boys threw him kicking and screaming into gaol. Ahh... Good times." ~A Nostalgic Brass Blade.

PC Rumors (Rumors from the characters of other players)

"Pretty swell guy, though I still wonder at what goes on in that head of his... Ah well, not my place to ask and it's definitely not your place to ask either." ~Nomi
"Smells as familiar as he seems, also both quite terrifying and kind. I go for the latter, too scared to admit the former." ~Pepe
"Nonotome? He is a quiet one, though he has provided aid to me on several occasions with his knowledge and wisdom." ~I'struno Zenh
