Appearance & Physical Details

Sketch depicting one of Rah's usual outfits.
An example that loosely portrays the shape of Rah's teeth--minus the gaps and jaw shown. His form one consistent row in the front, followed by a few rows in the back that are generally harder to see.

Rah is a lurid creature with a diminutive stature and a lissome carriage. A caliginous sea of roughly floorlength hair hair generally does a job of concealing a pair of pointed, elfin ears that transition from his normal skin color to black at the tips. He's very unnatural looking; and this couples perfectly with the equally unnatural vibes he exudes. Rah appears to have the tiniest bit of an overbite, offering him a bit of birdlike appearance (most especially when he is staring at something.) Rah's chin hosts a unique extension: an engraved, metallic equivalent of an ancient Egyptian chin-wig (or "beard"). His facial scales are angular and have an inorganic feel, in addition to being so sharp that one might get cut if they were to touch them. As an atypical, synthetic organism, Rah lacks fundamental understanding of how someone "should" or "shouldn't" dress--thus, he is often portrayed wearing provocative or revealing and attire (or lack thereof in some cases) and he experiments with social vices in an attempt to better understand aspects that govern the Spoken races--gender, being among the most difficult for him.

Others among the aforementioned traits are arguably more desirable than others--including a fairly shapely lower half, and the unnatural metallic sheen marking his complexion. His legs are long, slender with oddly small ankles (it can be noted as well that his wrists are also quite small.) Potentially bit too long to be natural, the chimera's legs eventually lead to a pair of feet that are equally as strange as the rest of his body. His feet are extremely large, and his toes are long and somewhat squared off before they taper into long, pectinate toetalons rather than regular toenails. He has six toes total; one set of which is somewhat backward in position and extends from his ankle/heel area.

Rah's eyes are extremely large with eyelids and sockets that have a round almond shape, and he appears to have no pupils; rather, his irises seem to be designated by two black rings which can dilate and grow larger or smaller depending on his mood. His eye sockets and his eyes are many times larger than that of a regular person's. There are red-violet markings under his eyes that appear to emulate eyeliner to a degree, but a closer look (and perhaps touch) reveal that there are sub-dermal impressions there. A series of linear designs mark all of Rah's horns and glow blue; corresponding with the markings seen on Allagan structures and technology. His hands are rather small; featuring unnaturally long spindly fingers tipped with spindly bladed finger that serve as another ominous indicator of his voidsent progenitors. Thick plumes of shiny black feathers protrude from his wrists and ankles. (For the most part, the larger feathers on his wings go unseen. They're a bit like feathers mixed with knives in appearance.) The chimera's smile is lent by a pair of full lips that glisten with a dark tinge. This serves as the only barrier between one's line of sight and a set of massive, serrated teeth (which are far too large and ominous to belong to a natural creature.) Upon second glance, once may be able to faintly discern sharklike rows behind the first set. His tongue is also pierced with a rarely-witnessed spherical stud of clear red stone. Rah also tries not to show teeth or yawn on account of this as the dentalia would serve as a sinister hint toward his origin, and the gesture certainly detracts from his appearance as a whole.) It may also be worthy noting that his gums are black, and his tongue is red.

An example portraying what happens as Rah yawns.

Rah's hair falls nearly to the ground in length, and is pigmented to assume a jet-black color. It almost seems to reflect the light and glisten slightly at times. There are long, wispy bangs that are often fall over the center of his face (Unadorned, his hairstyle is EXTREMELY similar what we see on most of the succubi, but his hair is notably much longer and appears to be alive.) His complexion also bears an obvious metallic sheen. While the reddish color of his skin seems to almost certainly allude to warmth or heat, this is not the case. The chimera's body is cold to the touch, and his scales seem range from prismatic shields on his skin softer and squishier to the touch; soft, cold and fresh (like his skin) when he is relaxed or has his guard down. Often, he speaks cryptically in a melodic voice with somewhat stiff, melancholy and mechanical responses that are usually laden with a great deal of noteworthy information. The plating that runs down his back hosts a line of jagged, vertebrae-like protrusions that become larger and more pronounced around the middle of his spine (Which are retractable to some degree. There are two corresponding vertebrae-spines that protrude from both elbows.) The majority of Rah's scales resemble a gargoyle's but have a glossy, synthetic appearance. There are a few areas which are considerably more rough and jagged with an appearance close to hematite ore. His plated tail is also extraordinarily long; transitioning to a violet toward the tip. This, in addition to manner in which his scales are patterned and the direction the plating seems to face toward strongly nuance traits found in many voidsent creatures.

*NOTE: There are discrepancies between the character model's appearance and what he looks like in RP. The details are below. Rah's hair is extremely long--in fact, it nears the floor and there are supposed to be long bangs draped over the middle of his face and his nose sometimes. His tail is also supposed to be much longer than shown on the character model, and it falls a bit past the floor and otherwise drags across the ground unless it is lifted and moved. His tongue is pierced, and he's also less muscular and leans much more toward the slender edge of the physique spectrum. Similarly, it can be noted that his wrists and ankles are somewhat small in circumference as well. The lower half of Rah's overall body shape is also a great deal more full-figured and long-legged. The metal equivalent of an ancient Egyptian chin-wig(beard) is also quite pronounced from his chin.

Personality

I am here. Always. Waiting...

Though the bioweapon was intended to be a fierce, sterile and heartless creature who was to defend Allag to the death, the Rah that most people know is anything but. It can be noted that he has minimal grasp on the concept of sexuality and public displays of affection, and more often than not misses the punchlines in dirty humor. His dialogue can come in somewhat stiff, melancholy and mechanical responses (the only notable difference in his tone comes when he sings or is in the midst of sexual activity) Rah’s strange appearance is matched only with a fatal temper when he is at last pushed too far. Tolerant and uncannily observant, the chimerical paragon is often able to mimic many things he sees other people do–usually in order for him to cautiously forge and don a ‘mask’ when interacting with people he does not know how to approach. While he may ultimately seem cute or friendly, forgetting this voracious monster’s existential purpose would be a move most unwise. It is also moderately unclear if he legitimately possesses a "human" conscience, or if he simply very good at mimicking those who do. Rah's romantic affection is an extremely dangerous thing. His overly-affectionate and violently protective nature coupled with a strong desire to hurt or kill his exes and any who serves as romantic competition all seem to indicate that the chimera has a serious yandere streak.

(In open or hedonistic or extremely open relationships, one might argue that Rah would do extremely well....but woe to absolute everybody else involved.)

Relationships

NOTE: As the nature of people's relationships often change over time, I will be trying to update this and keep it current with what Rah is feeling toward your character. Also, OOC information here is not to be used IC, unless you or your character have been directly or indirectly involved in or directly informed of these events.

💌 = Admired from afar 💙 = Friend 💜 = Family or Chosen Family 💋 = Attracted to ❓ = Unsure 💛 = Platonic Affection
💚 = Neutral ⛔ = Negative 👁‍🗨 = Fear 💢 = Hatred or Disdain 💝 = Relationship 💎 = Business Relation ☠️ = Victim/Murdered by Rah


  • Cersei Achillios: 👁‍🗨💜💛 Cersei is former Allagan nobility, and largely the one responsible for Rah's creation via Project Osiris. Needless to say, Cersei had actually developed a paternal complex toward Rah prior to him being snatched up and and carted off by the last of his surviving progenitors.
  • Drusilla Achillios: 👁‍🗨💜💛 Half-sister to Cersei, Drusilla was one of the first people ever to directly interact with Rah and treat him with kindness and affection. After shortly the fall of the Allagan empire, Drusilla had refused to enter stasis. She perished in a cave-in caused by the massive earthquake calamity. She died saved Rah's life, and her final words to him were a direct command to keep living.
  • Ixtoli Danasseus: 💙💜💛 Ixtoli is the only survivor out of Rah' direct progenitors. She demonstrates a fiercely maternal attitude toward Rah, and as far as she is concerned, he is her child by all rights and is more than happy to brutally murder anyone who dares to argue with her. Though this make peaceful family reunions (as well as introducing potential friends and even lovers) nearly impossible, Rah has an undeniably strong connection to her.
  • Neve Firn: 💙💜💛 Neve is the watchful Allagan golem who exhibits the shape of a tall humanoid female. She is partially responsible for teaching Rahfel how to speak, behave and articulate thought processes. She kept a quiet and vigilant watch over him for many centuries as he lay stagnant and unfinished in suspended animation.
  • Trembling Release: 💙💜💛 Rah met Trembling (who was accompanied by Edwin Avery) in Ul'dah, and the two became friends as they discussed their pasts and went out to get some fresh air in the midday Thanalan sun.
  • Apollox Daviron: 💎👁‍🗨💜💛 The Allagan summoner and chimerics worker encountered a pensive Rah in Azys Lla. Needless to say, he recognized Rah immediately for what he was. Rahfel now finds that admiration for the chimerics worker developing underneath his general fear and inherent reverence of one of his would-be masters, fondly referring to him in private as "Mister Apollox."
  • P'ianthe Aliapoh: 👁‍🗨💜⛔ Rah met Ianthe through Apollox. Much to his dismay, the royal clone appears to inherently hate and fear Rah for what he is. Nevertheless, these serious setbacks and his own fear don't seem to deter him from trying to prove his worth and win her over anyway.


  • Muu Kagon: 💎💙👁‍🗨💛 Following a trail of beautifully engraved materials, Rah at last found this reclusive Xaelan artist heavily cowled and glaring at him viciously from behind a rock. While Muu fervently despises the sun and most who walk in it, he compromised upon feeling endeared at Rah's childish machinations.
  • Mholi'a Jawantal: 💙💛 Like many others, Rah met Mho in the Quicksand rather shortly after he began making social appearances. Mho noticed Rahfel's knack for drawing and lack of flirtatious initiative, inviting him to his house for a commissioned sketch, where they had a pleasant conversation.
  • Rian Pendergast: 💋💙💌 Rah met Rian as an enthusiastic audience member who expressed strong appreciation for his dancing skills during one of his performances at the Gilded Pony, and the two have been sort of friends ever since.
  • Kazuki Kanagawa: 💋💙👁‍🗨 The mercenary was drawn to Rah after witnessing one of his burlesque performances, at the Gilded Pony decided to pursue friendship and conversation. Rah currently boards with him from time to time in his vast manor, and they currently have a blossoming friendship. Due to Rah's vast and inherent naivety, he has yet to grasp any romantic implications.
  • Orha Duren: 💚👁‍🗨 Rah encountered the witty and otherwise dashing Raen pirate in the Quicksand, and felt awkward and at a loss for trying to grasp Orha's way of thinking in order to better communicate with him. Orha voiced playful doubts about Rahfel's physical strength...a remark which Rah will be only too happy to disprove the next time they meet.
  • Iyo'a Nelhah: ❓ The two originally met when Rah opted to perform at the Tradecraft Festival. Iyo'a happened upon Rah again in an unlikely second encounter around Azys Lla. He had been effectively ditched by his expedition group during their quest for adamantite, and he caught and engaged Rah in conversation near Helix.
  • K'oga Tia: 💚💌 Rah greeted and immediately tried to comfort an unhappy K'oga in the Quicksand one evening. While K'oga initially seemed suspicious of Rah's intent, the two ended up having a heart-to-heart discussion about life and its struggles in a quiet evening at the Gold Court in Ul'dah afterward.
  • Vincent Delacroix: 💙 Rah met Vincent briefly at the Quicksand in the company of Mholi'a Jawantal. Later, he happened upon his friend Valliment Liautroix near the Culinarian's Guild in Limsa alongside Vincent, and the two appeared to engage in what ended up being an extremely whirlwind courtship and date. After Valliment proceeded to irritate and disgust Vincent, Rah comforted him and coaxed into giving Valliment a second chance, despite the heated words that had been exchanged between the two of them.
  • A'xun Enocan: 💎💙👁‍🗨 A'xun and his significant other approached Rah in the Quicksand, and more or less lifted Rah's feeling of being useless by employing his support for their business.
  • Soho Tia: 💎💙👁‍🗨 Soho and A'xun happened upon a crestfallen Rah in the Quicksand one evening and more or less recruited his support for their business. Needless to say, Rahfel will at least be managing to dance for any upcoming establishments or events they may have.
  • Alupia Enocan: 💎💚👁‍🗨 A pregnant Alupia was escorted around the icy slopes of Coerthas by Rah--courtesy of A'xun volunteering Rah for that mission, initially without Rah's knowledge.
  • Valliment Liautroix: 💙 Valliment and Rah met in the midst of a semi-domestic disagreement that broke out on the streets in front of the Quicksand. Though he was mostly removed from the situation and had no idea what was going on, Rah lingered near the scene and made it subtly clear that he was not going to let Valliment or Soren (the man who accompanied Valliment at the time) meet any sort of harm.
  • Shiemi Kihara: 💙💛 Rah became acquainted with this wily, good-humored albino Doman one evening on Pearl Lane. Curious about her albinism and the strange plants and substances she was peddling, the two had a long discussion about various Eorzean drugs and recreational substances. The two are friends, and sometimes can be seen attending public events together or barhopping as a pair of siblings might.
  • Aedh Duskhawk: 💋💚👁‍🗨💌 Aedh approached Rah while he was curled up in a corner and sketching the inhabitants of Pearl Lane. Noting his strong preference to converse in the Doman tongue, Rah carried out a short but pleasant conversation with him and was pointed in the direction of the Gilded Pony, where he performed for a time.
  • Rathain Kuromaru: 💋💙💛 The voidmage is and was Rah's first love. The chimera treasures the privilege of having him as a lover, even in the face of hardship.
  • Kohaku Son: 💋💙💛 Kohaku's gentle and kind nature won Rah over almost instantly when the two first met. They started conversing right off the bat, and Rah currently regards her as a friend and holds the hopes that there may be something more there someday.
  • Savant Ameyalli: 💚👁‍🗨💌 S'avant managed to catch an awkward Rah after one of his performances. Rah would later visit Savant at his residence, where they spoke of self-positivity and plotted to hold a potluck with unique foods and invite all their friends.
  • S'vashi Kayo: 💋💙💛💌 The vibrant and unassuming Miqo'te dancer remains an unsolvable mystery to Rah, who strongly feels as though his presence upsets her and ends up being crestfallen every time he tries to befriend her or get to know her more closely.
  • A'mun Guhn: 💚 Rah met A'mun through Neve briefly, and A'mun managed to teach him much about the mechanics behind romantic interaction--more than anyone else has before, which came up in a discussion shortly after a drunken passerby mistook Rahfel for a woman.
  • Viola Seville: 💎💚👁‍🗨 The fiery-haired Miqo'te bard is responsible for managing the Gilded Pony's performances and performers--Rah's of course was among them. He is still uncertain of what to make of her, but knows that Viola was both a very good dance instructor and a friendly, enthusiastic face. In her honor, Rahfel still cultivates little gardens of viola flowers of various color right out of his apartment.
  • L'yon Tia: 💎💚💌 The friendly Miqo'te was responsible for Rah's recruitment and intake into the Gilded Pony as a performer. To this day, L'yon is likely unaware that he has either made a grievous error or the best decision ever in doing so.
  • Oghulqaimish Hotgo: 💋💚💌 Rah gathered his courage one day to approach the amazing man who always wore such lovely and varying shades of pink and violet--and he was not disappointed. Both an expert at flattery and genuinely a kind person who has no qualms with dishing out compliments, Qaimish found himself showered by Rah's admiration...and bathe in it, he did.
  • Khortani Himaa: 👁‍🗨💚 The opportunistic Xaelan herbalist and Rah met in the Quicksand. While complimenting Rah on his skill, she was loathe to understand the gilded chimera's lack of desire for gil and non-materialistic views. Though it seemed that she made an effort to ignore him and perhaps even shut him out, Rah can be quite a persistent devil when he wants to be.
  • L'nela Varya: 💎💙💛 Nela and Rahfel met through their mutual employment at the Gilded Pony. Due to her evident admiration for his performances Rah expressing concern for her nervous chewing habits, the two became good friends. He still sure what to make of her entirely, as she arbitrarily bit and hugged him in their first encounter.
  • Zeraia Reynard: 💎👁‍🗨💙💌 Ever the quiet voice of encouragement for Rah in the background during his time at the Pony, fellow performer Zeraia has fully won Rah's admiration and fully piqued his curiosity.
  • Rhoe'ja Nenlahca: 💙 As a companion of Ravenous Wolf, Rah met Rhoe'ja without knowing much about him, other than his lack of legs and a vague story from Wolf about how that came to be. Rah has managed to procure high-grade Allagan prosthetic for Rhoe'ja as a gesture of sympathy, compassion and hope.
  • Ravenous Wolf: 💙 The ex-gladiator spotted a lurking Rah at the Drowning Wench, flagging him down to come join him as he dined. Rah learned about the fate of his friend Rhoe'ja, for whom he felt passionate sympathy.
  • Waltz Concerto: 💚💌 The colorful pop-idol Miqo'te earned Rah's fervent admiration in full force and not just as a performer, but as someone who is always beautifully or uniquely dressed. Rah has never really conversed with Mr. Concerto, and has more than several nervous reservations about doing so.
  • I'rinha Tia: 💙💌 The curious Miqo'te encountered Rahfel at the Quicksand, who was instantly fascinated by and seemed intent on touching his horns, comparing them to a buffalo's. Rah has a little trouble understanding how the other doesn't know who and what he is, but he isn't really that troubled by it.
  • Nameless Seeker: 👁‍🗨💚 The curious Miqo'te and his chatty bluebird companion encountered a moody Rahfel in Mor Dhona near the Crystal Tower. The meeting was a small exchange of informative and friendly remarks that seem to indicate two will become closer friends in time.
  • Fenris Tilani: 💙💛 Rah encountered Dee, Razia and a few other people at a semi-drunken gathering in Pearl Lane. He managed to make friends with them and means to live up to a promise he made Fenris, regarding the delivery of many unused bottles of alcohol.
  • Razia Kha: 💙💛 Rah encountered Dee, Razia and a few other people at a semi-drunken gathering in Pearl Lane. Razia immediately earned herself a place in Rah'sh heart as an adored motherly figure.
  • D'elsu Ituha: 💙💛 Rah encountered Dee, Razia and a few other people at a semi-drunken gathering in Pearl Lane. Dee was either asleep inebriated through duration of the time they interacted.
  • Raeventiel Beaudonet: 💋💚💌 The ice mage met Rah during one of Kiss's Open stage Cabaret nights. Rah was a little apprehensive toward him at first, but quickly found a new friend in Raeventiel.
  • Kumiko Sylvantails: 💚👁‍🗨 At the same Open stage Cabaret where Rah met Raeventiel, he encountered this highly inquisitive Miqo'te. Not wishing to divulge his origins in such a public setting, Rah left the Cabaret shortly after Kumiko intercepted him and asked many questions--none of which he really answered, needless to say.
  • Rimanah Asmadai: ⛔💢 The Miqo'te female encountered an already irritated Rah in the Quicksand one evening, and ended up irritating him more with her lack of manners.
  • Celet'a Vinetela: 💋☠️⛔💢 The succubus tried to seduce Rah shortly after meeting him. Unfortunately, the only thing she really managed to arouse was his appetite...
  • S'xihk Tia: 💋💙💌 Rah encountered an inqusitive Xi during one of his crusades to help the poor folk of the Brume, managing to secure the Miqo'te's curiosity and possibly a budding friendship.
  • Qata'to Anbolho: 💎❓ Qata and his brother met Rah during a chance encounter in a wild Oasis in Thanalan briefly.
  • Daca'to Dolabnha: 💎❓ Daca and his brother met Rah during a chance encounter in a wild Oasis in Thanalan briefly.
  • Antoinaut Fierlaine: 💙💛 Antoinaut was anxious about shopping at a store in Ul'dah, until Rah happened by to help him. The two became friends and Rah has volunteered to teach Antoinaut about history.
  • Noze'a Thamyu: 💙💛 Noze'a met Rah met on his way to the Goldsmith's guild in Ul'dah. He was distracted by Rah's metallic complexion and feathers, and the two sort of made friends after Noz comforted and injured Rah while visiting his apartment.
  • Shin Nagusame: 💋💎💙💛 Rah encountered the red-haired Raen at the Wanderer's Respite. Rah is still unsure of what to make of him, but will always remember that bright red hair.
  • Lamia Vuinuet: 💎💋💙 Rah met Lamia on his very first visit to the Wanderer's Respite. He was offered a position as a backup staff member and performer--an offer which Rah cannot accurately express his gratitude for.
  • Rhela'li Entialpoh: Rah met Rhela and Lamia at the Wanderer's Respite. He was offered a position as a backup staff member and performer--an offer which Rah cannot accurately express his gratitude for.
  • Corbeaux Vespois:💝💋💙💛 Raven and Rah are in a semi-open relationship. For Raven, Rah proves to be a good source of support and balance.
  • Myoro Etwan: 👁‍🗨💚 Myo managed to catch Rah after one of his performances, and interviewed him a bit to obtain information and sate her curiosity about him.
  • Holo Wolf: 💙💚 Holo became acquainted with the chimera through a chance encounter at the Respite one evening. Despite Rah's initial reservations, he found her to be a very likable individual.
  • Athrun Coeur: 💚 Rah, Tai and Athrun met in a Gridanian tavern one evening. Rah was drawn to the table where Tai and Athrun were sitting. Despite his partner's visisble discomfort with Rah's presence, Athrun proved to be the more reassuring of the latter for Rah.
  • Tai Aubade: 💚 Tai and Athrun met Rah in a Gridanian tavern one evening. Rah was drawn to the table where Tai and Athrun sat by overhearing Tai express his discomfort about voidsent.
  • Maqali Hotgo:💙💚 Rah later befriended Maq after their meeting near a cliff in Thanalan. Maqali accidentally caused Rah's biomechanical processing system to glitch by offering him a large slab of cake, over which the latter became extremely excited.

History

NOTE: If you want to be involved or feel your character might be a good fit to wiggle into Rah's backstory somewhere, please let me know and we can work something out!

This enigmatic and extremely advanced fourth-generation construct's origins date back to a time before the ultimate fall of the Allagan empire in the Third Astral Era, when the field of void research and experimentation was in its heyday. A unique, top-secret endeavor known as Project OSIRIS. The Osiris creature was fated to be a military weapon whose existential purpose was to pacify and weaken greater creatures in order for its masters to harvest their power. How he came to assimilate into Eorzean society remains a bit of a mystery.

PC Rumors

((If you know Rah IC'ly, PLEASE feel free to add something and let me know!!))

"I met Rahfel in the Quicksand one day while watching him draw. A few days later, I posed for him and he did a drawing of me for my lover. He is very kind and does wonderful work! I expected him to start flirting with me, but he did not. Strange, but nice!" - Mholi'a Jawantal

"In the absence of my usual protection, I asked Rahfel to join me on a few tasks to help keep my body intact. He takes the role of a guardian very seriously and I am happy to say he kept me safe as intended." - Alupia Enocan


"Awww, yeah! I remember him. He's adorable and he uh, kinda reminds me of a bird. I'll take sixty of him, please!" - Dorbei Kha

"Rahfel is so sweet--I should say that one risks a toothache when speaking to him. May I say that I am honestly surprised to see that some unsavory ghoul hasn't snatched him up already? I mean I would, mind you, if it weren't the fact that he walks in the sun and therefore bathes in mortal SIN!!!" - Muu Kagon

"Rah is very nice--assuming you're able to get past those creepy, evil vibes all around him. He helped me fetch something I'd been missing for weeks. Turned out it got nabbed by the dragons...oh and uh, speaking of. D-don't make him m-mad, kupo!" - Meek Moogle

Known Haunts

Though he adores his home, the Flagship's Defense System constantly tugs at him to assimilate.


You might have run into or otherwise know Rah from:

  • The floor of the Quicksand
  • Azys Lla, though he does not stray too close to Aetherochemical Research Facility (his original "birthplace")
  • A few venues in the Goblet or the Mist, where is bit of a rare spawn these days
  • The Gilded Pony, where he is a performer and otherwise part-time employee
  • Mor Dhona, meditating near the Eight Sentinels.

Trivia

  • Rah and Makoto Kusanagi have similar attributes.
  • Rah's favorite colors are gold, white, royal blue, violet, sky blue, silver and red
  • Rah does drink, but seldom. He strongly prefers alcoholic beverages that are laden with fruity or sweet flavors to compensate for the bitterness of hard liquor. Due to his stout gut, the genetically engineered demon displays a high level of alcohol tolerance and does not as easily suffer the effects of alcohol as normal organisms would upon consuming quantities that would be considered excess
  • Rahfel generally uses his hands and talons in combat, or a two-handed sword
  • He is easily startled and somewhat excitable, especially when items are being thrown in the air nearby
  • The likelihood that he would survive birthing is a bit low, and the odds of the children achieving longevity and developing properly are unlikely and next to impossible
  • If you see the accompaniment node minion, know that in RP it is a functional piece of technology that is meant monitor his condition
  • Rah has a notable affinity for many creatures and can befriend a wide range of creatures, be it beastkin or even some beastfolk--hence why a tiny owlet or gaelikitten sometimes can be seen perching on his shoulder.
