General Information
Samilen Jawantal is a well-known botanist and carpenter within the city-state of Gridania where which he resides. He was a soldier present in battle during the Great Calamity as an Order of the Twin Adder's White Wolves member (bard), and carries many ongoing emotional issues from the conflict to the present day. Due to the trauma experienced from that day, Samilen is selectively mute and communicates largely through the use of sign language and the writing on a journal he carries with him.
He was born to a small family in Limsa Lominsa and is the eldest child of three. He has two younger sisters, Xazi (15) and Gici (7), and all three were born to father Nobu'li (Miqo'te) and mothers Sami (Miqo'te) and Lenphi (Hyur).
He can often be found either within the carpentry guild mentoring new members, or traveling through the Black Shroud on various tasks given to him by the botany guildmaster Fufucha.
Appearance
Samilen Jawantal is a male Miqo'te, Keeper of the Moon, and bares a general resemblance to others of his people and clan. He stands at approximately 5'6" (5'8" including ears) and is relatively slim but muscular in build due to years of archery honing his upper-body strength.
He has short, fluffy white hair and slim cat-like ears often adorned with some manner of jewelry. His eyes are bright-yellow, which contrast sharply with his dark complexion, and his face is almost always adorned with face-painted markings according to Keeper traditions.

Mannerisms
Samilen is a very exuberant man with a lot of energy that he rarely is ever able to run dry. The worst thing in the world to him is boredom, and boredom comes when he is left with nothing to do–he relishes the opportunity to fiddle with trinkets and explore new areas, which is why he takes to carpentry and botany as well as he does.
Though he is generally very friendly, Samilen has grown very introverted in the days since the Great Calamity. He often doesn’t instigate the meeting of new people but will never turn down a conversation or brief companionship. Moreso, though he is still a brilliant archer Samilen rarely takes part in any battle or skirmish unless he is absolutely needed or if a loved one is in danger.
Despite his tendency for self-isolation, Samilen is also a man looking for companionship, though he often hides his vulnerable need for intimacy as a character trait–it’s much easier for him to play it off as simply being a charmer, after all, and often finds himself thirsting after anyone who fits the profile of being strong, self-assured and assertive in some shape.
Philosophy & Ideals
Samilen's philosophy on life can be summed up into 'give into the world what you want to get back'. He believes very much in the aspect of karma and often holds this close to his heart as something taught to him by his mothers early in life. He sees the world much like a seed: if one wants to harvest the fruits, they must first nurture the plant to bloom and be patient as it grows. This might be a reason why he enjoys the study of botany as much as he does, as it's easy to see this philosophy at work, but also because he wants to make and see the world become a better place, especially after everything he's experienced due to the Great Calamity.
Quirks
- Hates the number four
- Talks only to the plants he studies
- Speaks to people only via sign language unless singing or performing music
