Seto Verasse (/ˈsɛtɵ vɛrɑːssɛ/) (née V'seto Tia) is from the Vulture tribe, born as part of the Miqo'te diurnal clan Seeker of the Sun. Born through a Vulture tribe's nunh, V'akra Nunh and his mother, K'yana Rehb, he is the youngest born to his mother, though his older brother was born from a different nunh from a different tribe. Currently he is not part of any tribe after a majority of the tribe branch died from an attack of their camp, including his mother.

Basic Info

Seto Verasse is a young and fresh Miqo'te, uphailing from the Vulture tribe located deep in the south west territory of Sagolii Desert. He is the youngest out of two brothers from the family but was born from a different tribe nunh to his older brother, Hikaru Kayle. At first glance the young lad looks inexpereinced and immature and his lack of knowledge outside his tribe means he is still learning. However, curious as to why his brother left the camp years before him and the desire for adventure, Seto faces up to the challenge.

Names

■ Birth Name: V'Seto Tia.

■ Adopted Name: Seto Verasse.

Seto was born with the name V'Seto Tia of the Vulture tribe, which he grew up with for 19 years. Upon leaving the camp, his adopted name became Seto Verasse. This was to appear more accessible to the people outside of his camp.

Appearance

■ Build: Medium. ■ Height: 5 fulms 3 ilms. ■ Weight: 129 ponz. ■ Hair Color: Hare-brown.

■ Hair Style: Messy and (attempted but) ungroomed. ■ Eye Color: Light leaf green one on the left, ocean blue on the right. ■ Skintone: Fair. ■ Distinguishing Features: Small scar on left cheek.

Seto has a fair skintone and complexion and is medium built. Smaller than the average Miqo'te but it doesn't generally hinder him. Hare-brown messy hair which he tends to try and keep groomed but it refuses to stay in place. His distiguishing features are his eyes, a light leaf green one on the left and ocean blue on the right. Not to mention the scar on his cheek he received on his failed fight to become a nunh.

Characteristics

Mannerisms: Seto is naive to world outside his camp due both his mother and his brother's protectiveness to him. He sometimes comes across as very inquisitive at times. When he asks questions, he is generally curious and becomes rather excited at the prospect of learning something new.

Voice: His voice is rather nasal and speaks in slang a lot. He has picked up a peculier accent from observing Hyuran youths in the city of Ul'dah.

History

Seto's early years were spent on the aftermath of his older brother and mother's banishment from the Hipparion tribe due to Hikaru's disagreement to religious teachings of the tribe elder's. Name had got around quickly to the Vulture tribe where Seto was born into and people had a veryclose eye on Seto. In his teenage years Seto had felt a lot of pressure from the elders who came to the tribe, feeling as if they were worried he may follow in the footsteps on his older brother. His upbringing was only marginally tougher than other children around him but Seto was still very cautious of what he was told about his family's past.

1558-1563 - A Family Broken Up

Born in 31st Sun of the 7th Umbral Moon 1558, Seto became a member of the Vulture tribe. He was the youngest to his mother after his older brother who was 16 at the time of his birth. Seto's early years were filled with the conflict between his mother and his brother over how he was to be raised. Hikaru would clash with his mother in regards to how Seto would be brought up, always arguing he should have a free mind and not be tied down by the ways of the tribe’s people.

Seto idolised his older brother and would fall asleep listening to Hikaru's stories of great worlds and the different people and creatures. He would eagerly wait for the elder to return from hunts outside the camp, waiting to hear tales of ferocious beasts and grand landscapes waiting for him to explore when he was older.

When Seto was five, Hikaru made a bid for the title of the tribe’s nunh and he won, becoming the nunh for the small faction. Even though his brother was not born into the Vulture tribe, he gained a lot of respect from other members. But this was the time when Seto remembered starting to see his brother less and less. Hikaru would spend long periods away from him and his mother. When he met with his mother, Hikaru would argue his duty as the tribe Nunh kept him away from being with his family.

When the time had came for Hikaru to mate with tribe females, he wasn’t able to. During an extended argument with his mother one night, Hikaru had made the decision to leave the tribe. Upon packing his stuff, Hikaru had left Seto without much of an explanation to what had happened or what the argument was for. Seto believes this was due to his age at the time. Hikaru had told him that he was leaving for a long mission and may not be back for a long time. He told Seto to be strong and look after their mother. With a hug to him and one last hug to his mother, his older brother left.

Personality

Seto still finds a lot of Eorzea new and exciting.

Seto is still young and inexperienced to the lands of Eorzea after his protective mother wouldn't let him out of her sight. He feels that his mother blames herself for Hikaru's behaviour and has then turn her attention to him, making sure he stayed out of trouble and harms way. This didn't stop his curiosity and probably got him into more trouble than he was suppose to.

He likes when people give him attention but he doesn't seek it. He can be happily pearched on a ledge or a cliff, staring over the beautiful landscapes Erozea offers and he'd be pretty content, watching the people or even the creatures that roam the land go about their daily routine. Excitable and friendly, he will be pleased if anyone flashes him a smile. He is very awake and playful at times, and sometimes this can hinder him as people think he doesn't take things seriously.

LIKES ■ Attention ■ Fish ■ His brother ■ Hunting (including fishing) ■ Perching

DISLIKES ■ ■ Ignorance ■ Insects ■

TRAITS ■ Boistrous ■ Curious ■ Loyal ■ Inquisitive ■ Over exciteable

Affiliations

Hikaru Kayle: Hikaru is Seto's older brother. They have a different last name as Kayle took on the last name from the tribe he was born into and Seto has taken the one he was born into. Seto hasn't seen his older brother since he was five.
