- PERSONALITY TYPE.
- ➤ SENTIMENTAL TREASURES.
➤ SOULSTONES.
- ➤ MAN-AT-ARMS.
- Since he can remember, Y'uraq was trained in several armed arts through childhood including one-handed swords, greatswords, and more blades of all shapes and sizes. Over time, his training with weapons extended to fight with swords and shields, lances, daggers, and battle-axes. Having very little experience with unarmed combat, Y'uraq will turn to thaumaturgy and magic to aid his victory, or survival. He casually practices his aim with corporeal projectiles to conserve his casting hands.
- ➤ VOID MAGIC.
- Through moons of nightmarish trials and deeds, Y'uraq has learned much from the Lambs of Dalamud, and his former master in the forbidden arts. Including evoking and harnessing aether into a volatile and destructive force. Embracing his fear, anger, and hatred to unleash on his victims. Y'uraq's knowledge extends to alchemy, necromancy, shadow and blood magic. To this day Y'uraq has vowed to reject the dark, and terrible things Rune Fury had taught him, but retains his knowledge as a means to identify void magic when he sees it.
- • Note: Resistant to void/dark-aspected magic and effects.
- ➤ AETHERIAL AFFINITY.
- Gifted with a strong affinity to aether, Y'uraq was quick to demonstrate his potential as a spellcaster since a very young age.
- ➤ THAUMATURGY.
- Y'uraq's preferred school of magic. Years of studying and practicing basic aetherology through his youth has strenghtened Y'uraq's knowledge over both the astral and umbral leys. He is acknowledged by the thaumaturges guild as an adept in their ranks, Y'uraq continues to demonstrate and reflect the great and volatile powers of the fire, lightning, and ice elements.
- ➤ SWORDPLAY.
- Since childhood, swords have been Y'uraq's weapon of choice. Years of mastery have enabled him to drive, slash, swing and maneuver his blades with agility, and percision.
- ➤ VIGOR.
- Y'uraq's will to fight pushes him to defy his odds, and fight past his known limits.
- ➤ DARKSIDE.
- Despite his deceptively thin and light frame, Y'uraq's has proven the power to evoke a great physical might through sheer emotion alone. When his darkside is evoked, Y'uraq also gains an immense constitution, allowing him to withstand heavy combat at close quarters, while retaining an array of volatile and powerful spells at his disposal.
- ➤ OVERCONFIDENCE/ARROGANCE.
- Y'uraq has been prone to underestimate his foes too lightly before learning a harsh lesson in his current limitations, and situational awareness.
- ➤ LEG INJURY.
- Y'uraq suffered a heavy injury to his right leg in early adolescence. He is likely to fall with a firm and direct strike to his right leg.
- ➤ LIGHTWEIGHT.
- Despite Y'uraq's set of skills and abilities at his disposal, he is very light for a man his height.
- ➤ UNARMED COMBAT.
- Y'uraq is vulnerable without a weapon, or his ringbands to evoke spells with.
- ➤ AETHERIAL AFFINITY.
- Y'uraq's greatest strength is a great double edged sword. Y'uraq's aether is easily sensed by voidsent and aetherscopes. Hungry voidsent lured to Y'uraq's aether are fairly common in his wild expeditions.

- ◆ “Y'uraq? Hmm I remember him. He's easily among the better sellswords out there. Heard he nabbed a couple of championships too, good for him.” - Scorpion Crossing Merchant, Western Thanalan
- ◆ “Merciful gods did you see him fight?! He's an absolute savage! - Grindstone Spectator, Central Thanalan
- ◆ “Indeed, Y'uraq is easily among the more gifted thaumaturges to ever walk through our doors. But his passion for knowledge and thirst for answers concerns us. - Adept Thaumaturge, Azzaneth Ossuary
- ◆ “They say he's lost his memories, I say he's hiding something." - Quicksand Gossiper, Ul'dah
- ◆ “Agent Y'uraq? Mn, aye he's been a fine addition to our ranks since wandering in. He's been prone to bring proof of marked sightings over the twelveswood, but our scouts never seem to find the remains...” - Serpent Personnel Officer, Adders' Nest
- ◆ "He almost seems like a different person when he fights, cruel and vicious... Yet, he's so calm and friendly when he's not.” - Grindstone Spectator, Central Thanalan
- ◆ “Years ago, I saw a male miqo'te in a red tattered cloak board my ferry. He was alone, quiet, the air around him was frigid. I remember my crew commenting over a feeling of dread in our sail across the channel. I felt that dreadful feeling depart as he did.” - Vesper Bay Ferry Captain, Western Thanalan
- ◆ “I've seen him running between Rowena's house of splendors, and that old digsite just north of that Crystal tower they found. I can't help wonder what he's done with that stave and the stack of tomes he got from Rowena” - Seventh Heaven Patron, Revenant's Toll
- ◆ “I swear I'm telling you! I saw him mark and consume a voidoriga into nothing!” - Drunken patron, Buscarron's Durthers
- ◆ "He seems to have some potential, but his mind is clouded." - Rahn'a Lihzeh
- ◆ "Don't go near him, he'll give you fleas" - Sylbor Leclair
- ◆ "Rumor here." - Character Name

WIP
- ➤ DISCLAIMER
✦ I consider myself to be a medium to heavy roleplayer, I'm a sucker for character development and story continuity. I also consider as a dynamic roleplayer, this means that I keep my IC and OOC knowledge between myself and Y'uraq well apart, this keeps the fourth wall nice and sturdy.
✦ This also means that I do not, and will not do or accept any 'fast forwarding of major character developments' between Y'uraq and your characters or permit 'metagaming' of any sort.
✦ However, due to the length of some scenes taking potentially longer than a couple of days depending on scheduling. OOC discussions to establish a time lapse after a scene without disrupting each other's stories is the only exception to the rule above.
✦ 'Retconning' is only limited to retyping a post before giving other people in the scene a chance to respond. Otherwise, I will not negotiate it. Part of character development is things may not always work out perfectly, but it's up to your character to overcome the obstacle. Own up to the consequences!
✦ In addition, if an aspect of RP makes you uncomfortable in a scene we're playing, please send me a /tell, letting me know. Communication is very important, more important than potentially keeping immersion.
✦ With that said, I reserve the right not to engage or RP with someone I wish to avoid. This goes back to the whole "dynamic" RP thing, forced and unwanted interactions are never a good thing.
✦ Though I may not always be IC or available while I'm online, please be sure to send me a tell before initiating roleplay with me. Unless I'm already committed to something else, I would be happy to drop things aside and set up for a scene with you. If I'm already ready RP'ing, feel free to walk up and join in. I don't ignore people unless they're trying to grieve RP.
✦ I generally use /say as my default designated RP channel, but I also use /tell, /party to IC when the circumstance or distance demands it.
✦ I am an M/RPer, meaning I am fine with the possibility of being part of a story arc that includes violence, sexuality, drug / alcohol use, dramatic, obscene aspects, scenes and plot points. In addition, I am fine with Y'uraq facing his own moments of weakness, and defeat. However, keep in mind I do not want to have this happening every day/week/month. I expect these to be nothing more than certain scenes and important plot points and helping someone progress their story development and/or my own.
✦ With that in mind, moments of levity are always welcome where possible.
✦ I am okay with some lore-bending. If the lore does not explicitly state something cannot be done and you have a valid reason for doing it then I have no problem. I have some of my own head cannon that fills in areas where the lore team was not as detailed as I and others would like, the gray areas that are perfect for bending without breaking. However, complete disregard for lore limits and continuity is not okay.
- ➤ ROLEPLAY LIMITS.
✦ Death/ Rebirth - If Y'uraq dies, he dies. I decide when it happens. No one is allowed to kill him unless the circumstances are set for his story to end that way, and perma-quit FFXIV with a bang.
✦ Ask about long-term injury and disfigurement. Long-term captivity or imprisonment.
- ➤ TIME ZONE, SERVER & GAME HOURS.
✦ EST/ Eastern Time (GMT -4)
✦ Balmung
✦ Late afternoons, evenings, and weekends.
- ➤ LINKS OUT.
✦ Y'uraq's Rants, Raves, & Lewds (IC RP blog) NSFW! +18! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!
