<font style="color: #000; letter-spacing: 0em;"><i>Walking with all the time in the world and displaying a inviting smirk that tempts even the most resolute of Paladins to engage in a touch of mischief, Lieutenant Brook (though he insists on using first names) is a sea-born and ship-raised officer who is known across the Limsan docks for his nimble physician hands, Llymlaen blessed navigation, and fierce loyalty to his Company. The wisdom nurtured to see him survive the stormy seas to nearly middle-aged is hard to glimpse beneath the jovial surface, yet many flounder on that hidden intelligence when they underestimate his resolve. A talented arcanist, he is rarely seen without his azure carbuncle somewhere near his side, affectionately named 'Breeze' when not being scolded for begging treats off strangers or stealing shoes.</i>

'''General:''' His sun-soaked age is creeping into the lines at the corners of his malachite eyes, though his keen gaze remains clear. Standing on the shorter side for a Midlander sees him often controlling his unkempt blond hair with a headband or hat, so the bangs don't fall into his eyes when looking up to address taller folks. Though he has graduated to an officer position, he has not lost the sharp edge and athletic body of a quick-thinking mariner, throwing a punch as easily as he can throw a smirk through the barely-neat mustache and short beard he supports.   
  
 
'''Scars & Markings:''' A working life has left the Hyur with plenty of scars, though the only ones he shows are those that mar his face: a sharp thin horizontal slice across the bridge of his nose, and the harsher gash that angles down his right cheek. The sailor is tattooed, and has seen to have a constellation wrapping around one of his shoulders, and a curious abstract nautilus shell on his foot.

'''Voice:''' His voice is presented as soft, and so when it becomes cold and harsh the crew know that someone has pushed the calm lieutenant into anger. In public he speaks with a Limsan accent with a grating undercurrent (think Toby Stephens's [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYsaWGIOEyo Captain Flint] in Black Sails). When in a more private setting, or when he's speaking softly to certain crew mates, his accent falls into a smooth foreign tongue (Spanish, close to Diego Luna's [https://youtu.be/LORtuZ0ISF4?t=46 Cassian Andor] in Rogue One)

'''Clothing:''' When out of the officer's uniform, his garments of choice are light leathers, leaning towards the darker blues, greens, and reds, or going straight to black. Knee-high boots usually complete the outfit. It requires a special set of circumstances for him to be seen without the long leather bracers that adorn his forearms, leaving his fingers bare so he may conduct his work without removing them, and the black leather choker that protects his neck.

 +
At a first meeting the officer comes across as friendly, quick to laugh, and painfully honest. If the situation cannot be joked over, there is a kind word or kinder act employed to smooth the ruffled sea. He is a friend to the downtrodden, open with his knowledge and generous with his mending. Puzzles and drinking both alight his interest, especially if coupled with a friendly, small, wager.
  
 +
When observed while undertaking his duties, he is curt, defensive, and hasty to address any threats to his and his own, sometimes too quick to bare teeth to a perceived enemy when it is not his own welfare under threat. In these times his first priority is his crew, regardless of the politics or laws of the situation. He is still approachable, though those working under and alongside him learn not to break him from his thoughts if he is in the midst of calculations or gazing skyward.
 +
 +
Among the closest of friends, he removes the jovial mask to reveal something... else.

Tal-Brook-Commission-BritishMuffin-4.jpg

Walking with all the time in the world and displaying a inviting smirk that tempts even the most resolute of Paladins to engage in a touch of mischief, Lieutenant Brook (though he insists on using first names) is a sea-born and ship-raised officer who is known across the Limsan docks for his nimble physician hands, Llymlaen blessed navigation, and fierce loyalty to his Company. The wisdom nurtured to see him survive the stormy seas to nearly middle-aged is hard to glimpse beneath the jovial surface, yet many flounder on that hidden intelligence when they underestimate his resolve. A talented arcanist, he is rarely seen without his azure carbuncle somewhere near his side, affectionately named 'Breeze' when not being scolded for begging treats off strangers or stealing shoes.

General: His sun-soaked age is creeping into the lines at the corners of his malachite eyes, though his keen gaze remains clear. Standing on the shorter side for a Midlander sees him often controlling his unkempt blond hair with a headband or hat, so the bangs don't fall into his eyes when looking up to address taller folks. Though he has graduated to an officer position, he has not lost the sharp edge and athletic body of a quick-thinking mariner, throwing a punch as easily as he can throw a smirk through the barely-neat mustache and short beard he supports.

Scars & Markings: A working life has left the Hyur with plenty of scars, though the only ones he shows are those that mar his face: a sharp thin horizontal slice across the bridge of his nose, and the harsher gash that angles down his right cheek. The sailor is tattooed, and has seen to have a constellation wrapping around one of his shoulders, and a curious abstract nautilus shell on his foot.

Voice: His voice is presented as soft, and so when it becomes cold and harsh the crew know that someone has pushed the calm lieutenant into anger. In public he speaks with a Limsan accent with a grating undercurrent (think Toby Stephens' Captain Flint in Black Sails). When in a more private setting, or when he's speaking softly to certain crew mates, his accent falls into a smooth foreign tongue (Spanish, close to Diego Luna's Cassian Andor in Rogue One)

Clothing: When out of the officer's uniform, his garments of choice are light leathers, leaning towards the darker blues, greens, and reds, or going straight to black. Knee-high boots usually complete the outfit. It requires a special set of circumstances for him to be seen without the long leather bracers that adorn his forearms, leaving his fingers bare so he may conduct his work without removing them, and the black leather choker that protects his neck.

Weapon Training

  • Mastery: Archery
  • Expert: Muskets/Pistols, Swords (Scimitar/Cutlass), Brawling
  • Average: Axe, Swords (short), Lance, Shields
  • Novice: Swords (long), Two-Handed Weapons

Aetherical Abilities

  • Mastery: Arcana
  • Expert: Nil
  • Average: Nil
  • Novice: Conjury, Astrology, Geomancy

Combat Abilities

  • Dirty Fighting: Avoiding a battle until backed into a corner, once the options run dry he will fight to win: rules are discarded and anything, from taunts, manipulation, and blows below the belt, are on the table
  • Rapid Mind: His mind is quicker than his body, enabling him to prevent reflexes activating at inopportune times, though the disadvantage is that his body cannot always keep up with the moves his mind wants
  • Independent Carbuncle: The intelligence of the construct is beyond what one expects from a summoned 'sniffer dog', and will fight as dirty as any sailor in a tavern brawl

Non-Combat Abilities

  • Navigation: He is called lucky from the dire straits he has sailed ships through, yet his skill behind the wheel is a combination of knowing his ships, knowing the waters, and knowing the signs of what lurks beneath
  • Mending: He calls himself a physician, yet his gift extends to the aetherical healing arts, even if he is sometimes reluctant to draw on that magic

Tal-Brook-Misc-8.png

At a first meeting the officer comes across as friendly, quick to laugh, and painfully honest. If the situation cannot be joked over, there is a kind word or kinder act employed to smooth the ruffled sea. He is a friend to the downtrodden, open with his knowledge and generous with his mending. Puzzles and drinking both alight his interest, especially if coupled with a friendly, small, wager.

When observed while undertaking his duties, he is curt, defensive, and hasty to address any threats to his and his own, sometimes too quick to bare teeth to a perceived enemy when it is not his own welfare under threat. In these times his first priority is his crew, regardless of the politics or laws of the situation. He is still approachable, though those working under and alongside him learn not to break him from his thoughts if he is in the midst of calculations or gazing skyward.

Among the closest of friends, he removes the jovial mask to reveal something... else.

NPC

Scuttle () ( NPC ) - Curious Seaside Miqo'te
The ebon-skinned Miqo'te is as long in twelvemoons as he as tall (which is very). Never seen inland, the strange mannered fisherman keeps to himself when seen, carrying a scent of fish and salt. His speech is strange, akin to the few Sahagin that sue for peace with the Maelstrom.
Glazgeim Bloeklyngwyn ( ) ( NPC ) - Former Mentor
The conjurer and physician that trained a teenage Tal in the medicinal arts and general manners.
Jabir Zahrawi ( ) ( NPC ) - Serene Eastern Rival
The violet-accented Elezen that indulges the mortal's desire for more in his Eastern Teahouse has business connections to Tal, though neither enjoy the necessary connection they share.
Breeze ( ) ( NPC ) - Loyal Intelligent Carbuncle
The officer is rarely seen without his curious carbuncle by his side, and when he is, a hovering bluebird or fluttering butterfly is never far behind.

Communication
Communication is vital. Please feel free to message me in game or on Tumblr with any questions or potential meetings. While RPing, if something is said or discussed or the direction of the scenes makes you feel uncomfortable, please let me know, even if you still wish to continue the scene. If something is said IC or OOC that leaves questions hanging, ask for clarification, as tone is difficult to interpret when only going off the written word. Not everything my character says or does reflects my own personal views, and RP should be enjoyable for all parties ^_^
