Character

General

He is quick to anger, excite and even to forgive. While he enjoys competition, especially that of combat relation, he isn't fond of causing a scene among a given group and is quick to yield off his predisposition that may draw negative attention to himself from larger crowd.

Appearance

Dark tanned with sandy blonde hair. X'linwh favors simple clothes as opposed to any heavily embroidered attires. His face and his whole body is covered by numerous faded old scars that is hard to spot unless staring very closely. He is on a more muscular build and top heavy than most due to his constant training with his axe.

Behaviour

X'linwh is hot headed and impatient. It is rare to see him still for even a moment as the seeker is constantly either moving his tail around or flickering his ears even in the most calmest situations. He is fiercely protective of those he deems as 'under his care' and loyal as a dog to those he sees as above himself. He enjoys the crowd immensely and can be often seen mingling with as many people as he possibly can.

Combat

X'linwh likes to mix his foot work in monk training into his axe wielding and vice versa to throw off his opponent's expectation. Many things he learned in terms of combat was taught by his now deceased brother and the young miqo'te follows the lessons quite to the book in any given situation. He has high talent when it comes to weaponry and battle but it's very unrefined and is yet to reach its full potential.

While he's not aware of the origin of his warrior and monk training that he learned from his tribe, X'linwh has been able to use it quite effectively. He's a heavy hitter and a bruiser that doesn't shy away from taking damage. What he lacks in strategy and speed, he makes it up with his pure prowess and instinct. The seeker doesn't know intellectually on how his skills of wrath and chakra work and therefore utilizes them unknowingly only through chance and often in a very ineffectual way.

Relationships

♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Sexual Desire ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Neutral Standing ● Poor Standing

Friends & Acquaintances ●♥ Rhesh'ir Zhwan - He respects him great deal and sort of sees him as the leader of the little 'tribe' of a group they've somehow formed. X'linwh often finds himself unable to understand Rhesh'ir's motives or thought process but that just makes the keeper that much more intriguing and fun to be with. ● ♥Y'lyfriel Sikah - When it became public knowledge that Lyf and Rhesh'ir was an item, X'linwh finally realized he had a feeling for her. It was, however, too little too late and the young seeker male has decided to bury it away as he thinks highly of Rhesh'ir and he knows the keeper is much better miqo'te for her than he is currently. Still, he can't help his feelings growing like wildfire once he did acknowledge it. Perhaps it was a good thing that Lyf left for Limsa. ● Tahla'li Tayuun - He's unsure of this guy. They hadn't fought or in any sort of scuffle before this keeper started avoiding and downright hostile toward X'linwh when they do talk. The seeker's opinion of Tahla'li isn't certainly high but for all X'linwh knows, he hasn't done anything to cause such behavior...this time around. That said, he wasn't about to try and 'fix' things. He doesn't see him worth the time. All in all, he just tolerates him for sake of Kodaro and Rah'na. ●♥ Kodaro Ba'rococo - Mixed bag of joy. Kodaro is something of a friend, rival, brother all packed up in fun colorful parcel. X'linwh does feel quite bit of guilt over getting this lalafellin seeker in trouble more than one occasion but he still can't think up anyone else he'd rather have by his side when it comes to sticky situation. ● Dawson Colwell - X'linwh looks up to Dawson when it comes to the hyur's knowledge of medication and herbs and the like. While the miqo'te doesn't understand Dawson's fascination with the sky or the rock or the trees, he can certainly admire his quirk. Someday the young seeker will be as level headed as this hyur...maybe. ● Lotan'to Jiub - He hasn't seen Lotan'to for a while now. X'linwh secretly wonders if Onuma has locked him up for doing something bad... ● Onuma Ahntifi - X'linwh tries not to think about what Onuma did to his ex-tribe. It wasn't her fault, after all. He likes her enough, and certainly admires her many talents but it's hard to 'forgive and forget' when he's suffering from hallucination about his dead brother haunting him. ● Surilian Blu - He sort of misses her. Surilian has grown apart from the rest of the group and even when she does interact, she feels distant. X'linwh doesn't understand just what is going on with her or why she threatens to kill him one moment then cowers and hides away the next but if it's just some illness that she's suffering from, he wasn't about to treat her harshly over it. He also wonders why Tia(his pet rat) likes her more than him. ●♥ Rah'na Lihzeh - Rah'na was something of a little brother to him for long while. However, after the little 'rite of passage' that he put up for the young keeper, X'linwh has been trying to treat the younger miqo'te as an equal. He very much loves him as a family and secretly dreams of the day when the two can finally go hunting together without Rah'na hurling up his lunch. ●♥ Sizha'to Chalahko - There's something odd about Sizha'to that X'linwh can't quite place his finger on. They haven't really known each other too long and only met couple times, one of those encounter resulting with him 'borrowing' Sizha'to's airship ticket. He knows that he likes this keeper but to what degree, he's not sure. Maybe it's the hair. ● Nazyl Tharazyl - He likes him. The lalafell's funny and quite attentive. He's also proved himself to be beneficial to the group. X'linwh would definitely love to befriend this guy. ● X'yue Tia - He's Sizha'to's friend, and a seeker. That's about all he knows. ● Oliwat Kokiwat - The lalafell has been the one that taught X'linwh how to read and write. It gets confusing lot of times but Oliwat seem able to exercise quite a stretch of patience with him by some miracle. He just wishes that the lalafell would stop trying to ride him and others into battle. ● Oriel Durand - He's not sure of him. Oriel seems nice enough but they haven't had much time to interact save for general banter and the older miqo'te chastising him for idolizing a fictional character.

Enemies & Rivals ● Chesh'ir Lihzeh - He still doesn't like this keeper despite, or maybe because of, the fact he's Rah'na's cousin. For the longest time X'linwh thought he was his sister's mate but recently he found out that that was not the case. He also talks too much for his liking. ● U'dahsh'a Nunh - He's alright. X'linwh really doesn't have any opinion for or against him. He's wary of the fact that this 'self-proclaimed' nunh badgers after Surilian but he figures U'dahsh'a's just trying to justify his 'title'.
