Character
♦ General
Not truly of the Lynx tribe, X'tai ('Tai' for short) was the second son born to X'akariah Nunh on a small island in the Cieldalaes Isles. His father ran a bootlegging and farming operation with his 25 females and their children, running booze to pirate operations and certain organisations in Limsa Lominsa. When his mother died, Tai was forced to take up her duties in order to earn his keep: catching and killing the various insects that threatened the crops. He discovered early on that the insect parts he gathered could be brewed into alchemical concoctions with the discarded brewers equipment he salvaged, and furthermore, he began a habit of observing and recording the behaviors of the insects. It has been hinted that Tai used a Diremite Pheromone to poison the pirates that were visiting X'akariah Nunh in readiness to begin a shipping contract. His father's wrath at being the accused poisoner would be the cause of Tai's expulsion from the island, and exile to Eorzea.
♦ Appearance
Tai falls just short of medium height. He has fair skin, powder blue eyes and white hair. His left hand sports a mass of scars that appear to resemble scales and he often keeps that hand gloved. Tai's smile is lopsided and his ears are slightly shorter than other miqo'te. He is usually seen dressed in white as an advertisement for his healing skills, and sports a tattoo on one bicep that masks a brand he received in his younger years.
♦ Behaviour
Tai's worldview centers around the idea that people aren't inherently bad. His ability to see the best in people, and perhaps his generous nature lends itself to inspire others to be nicer to one another. His outlook does tend to occlude his ability to see the underhand dealings of some members of his Free Company, though. He is quick to forgive, and even quicker to come to someone's rescue, even a possible enemy. He will ramble on for hours when presented with the topics of magic or insects - two subjects at which he is most often found in study.
Tai is often easily sidetracked, forgetting important dates and duties and instead rushing off to heal someone in need or rescue one of his friends. He is oblivious to romantic advances, gullible, and stubborn to near-suicide when believing only the best of someone. Despite his often distractable nature, Tai can spot patterns and changes easily, and can figure out plans and schemes, though usually just before it is too late.
Combat
Eschewing hand to hand in favour of aetheric prowess, Tai uses a combination of summoning and elemental magics, along with some extensively altered magical workings of his own. He mostly avoids combat, and tries to caution his friends to avoid lethal force in a fight.
