: ● '''Aether Essence Weaponry:''' 6 Years in development after his experience at Carteneau he needed a counter measure for close combat. By condensing the aspected aether into a new shape he can create a temporary Aetheral weapon using specially attuned gauntlets. It last from 3-12 hits depending on the weapon and person in question. The surroundings,amount of aether available, and their own condition effect how well he maintains it. He's only made 3 sets of gauntlets so far ,it's not ready for mass production or education yet.

He is a mixture of self taught by necessity in battle and trained by his colleagues in the Knights of the Baracuda. He doesn't quite have 'strength' behind his blows however his agility lets him make up for it with precision attacks.

: ● '''Mathematical Enchantment:''' Using a theory of his own design in geometric physics. His arcanistry is dastardly potent. If given time to form new calculations. He can even weave his poisons on top of others to boost his own spells rate of damage. Shorter calculations render his magic weaker but quicker to cast.

With this and several acclaims, such as establishing trading routes for Maelstrom supplies in dangerous waters and creating potent artillery fire to use against Garleans, Zoktai slowly crawled up the ranks to High Storm Trade Sales Commander. Using his own personal funds he earned from regular trade, he bought two more vessels, one he donated to the Maelstrom as another trade vessel, and the other he personally uses for general “normal” trading. After that, Zoktai starts appointing captains to lead his ship while he stays stationed in Limsa.

'''A Realm Reborn'''
 
As he continued working in the Maelstrom, he decided to create a lab to start practicing experiments on both his alchemy and Allagan arts in arcanistry. Slowly, he makes a connection with the Sons of Saint Coinach. Being invited to a meeting of the minds, Zoktai, with Kiht as a guard, headed to Mor Dhona through the North Shroud and Coerthas Central Highlands. However, as they travel through the highlands, temple knights accosted them due to Zoktai’s appearance. After negotiations failed and he was labelled a heretic, with Kiht’s assistance, they slay the knights. Angered at not only being assaulted by the temple knights, but also being referred to as some monstrous creature, Zoktai copied his parents’ ways of hiding his appearance. After hiding the bodies in the snow, the two proceeded to Mor Dhona.

Meeting with Rammbroes Zasertylsyn, Zoktai happily exchanges information on both magics and relics he’s “found”. At the agreement of future information being sent to the Sons of Saint Coinach, Zoktai was allowed a summoner’s soul crystal of ancient Allag, which he’s supposed to have for research purposes only. Zoktai agreed to this arrangement and asked for permission to research Allagan technology and history. Aside from a minor hiccup, Zoktai with Kiht in tow, teleports slowly back to Gridania and then Limsa Lominsa.

As time went on, a call went out to the grand companies for a joint assault on the Castrum Meridianum. As his rank entailed, Zoktai helped secure supply lines for Maelstrom forces. Thanks to adventurers, the operation was a success. For a while, life was calm for Zoktai until he got a call to arms from his friend Kiht once again. Almost rejecting her outright, he was tasked to help with protecting the Steps of Faith. Regrettably, and unable to leave Kiht alone, Zoktai dons a disguise and goes to assist with repelling dragons from the Steps of Faith.

Working on the outskirts to repel smaller dragons, Zoktai is speechless when he notices Vishap. Seeing the giant dragon made Zoktai feel as though it would be safer to tend to the smaller dragons rather than go to the front-lines. After a successful mission, Zoktai left before celebrations started, citing his success under his name with the Maelstrom. He went back to his cycle of experiments and managing his ships. An idea struck him, and, using the fortune that he obtained from his own dealings, created a free company focused on protection and dealing with threats to the realm of Eorzea. Many members joined for their own various reasons. With the creation of the free company, Zoktai resumed focusing on his experimentation, Arcanistry, and alchemy as his trade ships were almost running themselves. He decided to make another form of income with the Zetsubou Tavern in La Noscea.

A little later, Zoktai started teaching several people various arts in Arcanistry and alchemy and sought to spread knowledge to others in both fields. However, he realized his own weakness; he knew how to use physical weapons, but didn’t have the strength compared to others. Deciding to focus on his old experiments to harness aether, he proceeded to tinker and work to alleviate this. At this point, Kiht invited Zoktai to see Ishgard for himself. Extremely wary, Zoktai followed Kiht. There, he’s made a connection with the Sky Steel manufacturer. He fell in love quickly due to previous experience of using a revolver.

Being given a soul stone for the machinist’s guild, he happily took both an aether transformer as well as various other contraptions to experiment with. This led to several technologic advancements he kept to his personal use. Such as Aetheral weaponry, Suits, egi augmentation and much more. Inspired to further his studies in this field he started amassassing a group of soldiers for personal training and testing.

Zoktai was called into action when the great battle of Ala Mahigo was orchestrated between the Eorzean alliance. He was kept busy keeping supply lines running as he continusly maintaned routes while helping small insurgence of garlean interloopers. As the battles rage on Zoktai had to balance working on his own experiments secretly while going at his job as a Commander in full force. As things heated up with the battle for Ala Mahigo Zoktai had to be sent over to the Far East for procuring a new provision to help his personal crews stay healthy over long Voyages. This led him and his personal assemble of servants travel to Kugane to do business. However it wasn't just for his ships that he sought out kugane. He proceeded to do research into new ingridents,parts, and ideas for his experiments. Due to an unforseen change of events. He actually ended up seeking his family too thus discovering a variety of new poisons to work with as well as medicines to share with his Grand Company. Heading home after procuring a secondary inn to work from at a distance. He now was enlightened with more ideas to help the war effort. Overhualing some of his ships and crews with some advancements he himself made. After the war came to a close Zoktai through some connections of a friend was able to travel to the Allagna Facality Azy la. There he found -Redacted-.Now Zoktai is back to his work overseeing his tavern and making Limsa safer one day at a time.

Leaning forward. Almost threatening Left-handed. A huge one primarily across the left side of his chest. Old burns amd cuts dotting his arm. Two extreme dark circles under his eyes. A mix between Limsa, Orthard, and Sharyalan fashion. On days of research, he can be seen wearing lab gear.
Hair & Eyes
Both eyes are a deep crimson red. His pupils are small, along with his irises, giving him a stern gaze with a few wrinkles under them from long nights up looking over his research. He has no umbral ring in his eyes. His hair is graying from its old black luster thanks to stress, but the tint of his father's red is still prominent in each tip. He wears it in a formal braided back style behind his neck to keep it out of the way during his experiments and tinkering, while his two horns jut out from it, curved toward the front with a slight bend.
Physique & Markings
At 6 fulms and 10 ilms. he is on the shorter range of Male Au Ra. His age doesn't quite show yet as Zoktai stands with confidence and vigor thanks to the physical exercise routine he maintains to stay in shape. He's moderately toned, not having any prominent muscles, but instead having a flat, smooth body aside from his scales. This is interrupted by the scar across his chest as if it was a crater. It's edges are cracked and jagged in design. He has slight burns scarring from alchemic experiments as well as a single bullet wound in his lower stomach. That aside, his scales are well kept to a dark shine, and his horns also gleam with a dark luster. His tail comes to 2 Fulms in length with a 5 ilms diameter as it protrudes from his lower back. Two spines decorate the base.
Hygiene & Attire
Zoktai actively keeps himself clean due to the chemicals he handles during the experiments he conducts and the meetings he must attend. He bathes at least once a day, if not more so, even after exercise or other activities. Unless in heat of an experiment, he's one to take a bath after most activities. As for his attire, he normally wears fashion close to a mix of Limsan and Doman wear fitting of a noble. The exception of this is his Maelstorm light armor he only wears during sorties. He never goes without some form of carry pouch oraethertansformer for gadgets he may need later. He also always wear some sort of prescribed glasses/goggles.

Personality
Psychological Profile
Zoktai's views on life are simple by default. If it turns a profit, brings success, or helps someone he's bonded with, he shall do it. Everything else falls behind his goals. Whatever he seeks, he focuses on it before moving on. Growing up and being on the sea taught him the truth about the world, at least compared to what he's studied. He grew under the belief that right and wrong is only relative to your perspective. Do whatever will make the reality you seek possible. One must be prepared to dirty their hands in order to accomplish what they feel is right. As long as you achieve your goal you're right. IF you fail, you did something wrong, so try a new approach. He's been out on the big blue more than enough times to reinforce his ideas. He's prone to treat people fairly on how much they create success for him. However, he is very vengeful when it retains anything against his own profiteering. His opinion on love and bonds is entirely based on books. Sometimes this is awkward when he applies it in real life even when he has the best intentions.His interest and the interest of those he cares about come first. Always regardless morally where they lay.
Zoktai grew in limsa. He's dealt with and seen some of the worst of the worst. He saw injustice to Eorzea for those without the power to protect them selves. This pushes him into making a Limsa and by that extent a erozea better for those all around. Those who work to help and make it better but don't have the strength to do so. He wishes to use his wealth and inventions to give everyone a fighting chance who deserves it regardless if the law allows it. He has little to no mercy for those who get in his way. Growing up secluded has given him a skewed way of dealing with others. Prone to resorting to what he learned in books as a way to deal with interactions.He had a crash course with his time at sea. He can be cruel to those ignorant or chose to ignore the pursuit of knowledge. During attacks of his Traumatic disorder however, he's prone to cowardice hiding, or leaving the cause of his reaction.
Voice
His voice is mature and gruff, resonating calmly in his throat. It escalates to a roar with rough undertones when angered though. His whispers are usually from his throat as he tries to keep his voice from resonating by making him slightly husky.

Non-Combat Abilities
Anatomy Studies: To better understand both wildlife and mortal races, he's done intensive studies into the anatomy of all known creatures in the realm. This lets him seek weak spots or know where to apply poison for disastrous effects to living creatures. This is also used to apply medicine or healing arts, allowing him to understand how to mend the body correctly. This does not apply to the undead an undocumented creatures. If it's new to him, he'll have no idea where to target besides obvious points.
Aetheral Control: Tested time and time again, his abilities in manipulating aether are powerful and well practiced. Able to control the amount inside of him, he disperses it well and has figured out a variety of uses for it in ways he sees fit. Casting spells, however, will come with mediocre results unless he has a grimoire/Aethertransformer at present allowing him to channel his spells properly. This is not without limits. He cannot gather more of it where there is a lacking of Aether in the air. He can, however, drain it from another being to replenish his own supply with Life Drain.
Swimming: He's a decent swimmer, having had to learn in order to work with the Knights of the Baracuda. He can crawl and backstroke. His diving time is 5 minute and 55 seconds.
War Tactics Strategy books galore taught him various combat scenarios and techniques both on land and sea. These give him an edge in thinking of maneuvers in plans when put into combat or even espionage situations. He's studied into the lore of the Scholar, yet he has not found a soulstone for himself. He is familiar with the healing arts yet lacks real skill with them, however, mending the body and protecting one before damage occurs through reinforced skin.
Medicine/Poision Specialist: Studies of alchemist formulas allow him to have a vast knowledge on most remedies and tonics. He can't cure everything but probably has a book on most well known diseases and can make a cure for anything listed. Also, for the average cut or other wound, he has many variations of potions to help mend the wound along with basic first-aid training.
Poison Resistance Due to self-testing, trial and error, genetics, and his clan practice of feeding poison to their youths. He has a heavy poison tolerance for most commonplace poisons. For stronger dosages, he still suffers effects yet weakens them considerably.
Combat Abilities
Aether Essence Weaponry: 6 Years in development after his experience at Carteneau he needed a counter measure for close combat. By condensing the aspected aether into a new shape he can create a temporary Aetheral weapon using specially attuned gauntlets. It last from 3-12 hits depending on the weapon and person in question. The surroundings,amount of aether available, and their own condition effect how well he maintains it. He's only made 3 sets of gauntlets so far ,it's not ready for mass production or education yet.
Martial Arts:Zoktai is proficient in weapons he used before such as Daggers,Un armed Combat, Shortswords,and Firearms. He is a mixture of self taught by necessity in battle and trained by his colleagues in the Knights of the Baracuda. He doesn't quite have 'strength' behind his blows however his agility lets him make up for it with precision attacks.
● 'Special' Ammunition: With his tinkering he has made a variety of specialized bullets, grenades, and other gadgets to assist them as he explores. There are: Morbol Grenade, Hallucination Smoke Bomb, Ignition Bomb, Mire Bullets,Shock Grenade,Tranquilizer Bullets.
Mathematical Enchantment: Using a theory of his own design in geometric physics. His arcanistry is dastardly potent. If given time to form new calculations. He can even weave his poisons on top of others to boost his own spells rate of damage. Shorter calculations render his magic weaker but quicker to cast.
Fear Burst: When going against an opponent and his post traumatic stress is in effect he gets a surge of Aether And Boost in his all his abilities. This is for an extremely short time (3 minutes Max) however as he soon gives way to fear and is reduced to a cowering from the source of said fear. It takes quite ab it to snap him out of this vulnerable state.
OOC Note
I understanding fighting happens it's a part of Eorzea's Life. Zoktai is not one to go straight into fighting physically. He almost if not always loses that way. If he can he'll first resort to sabotage before bringing his fist into it. I personally prefer using the first to 3-7 wins using rolls to determine the outcome of fights ,but im also wiling to do preplanned endings or even discuss other ways to determine a fight!



History
From The Diary Of Zoktai Khor
Disclaimer: This is OOC information from Zoktai's Diary. This information isn't common knowledge this is just to give people ways to meet or hookup IC with Zoktai. None of this is set in stone and will be changed if need be to fit lore or to cull his abilities.Think of this as a loose memory of Zoktais. If you see something amiss contact me and I can fix it. IF you want ot be included or even play out a scene of this I'm more then happy to oblige if it makes sense.
Sixth Astral Era
Before the Fall
Born to Boal and Toarbiashi on the Orthard's coast in 1537 ,Zoktai was a member of the Khor clan. This clan was famous for seeking to travel to foreign lands to perfect their craft in poison and medicine making. Creating dangerous poisons and powerful potions to defend themselves with. At the age of 3 his parents set sail for Limsa Lominosa to experience a whole new world when they both heard about rare ingridents to be found for their tribe. Upon arriving his parents used disguises wearing headgear to make it appear as if their horns were decorations rather then actually a apart of them. This continued for several years his parents sending letters to his grandfather about the sights and wonders they saw as his father Toarbiashi worked with the Knights of the Baracud using his skills as a hunter and cotor to help at sea. His mother stayed at home raising Zoktai teaching him both Xaela as well as Eorzean Script. His father bought a vast variety of books for Boal and Zoktai. Zoktai's favorite book was about a merchant of unlucky fate which would use his brains to escape dangerous adventures by the name of Dabnis. While he did his own reading his mother taught him the basics of poison and potion making while also feeding him some of her concoctions to build up his immunity.
This easygoing lifestyle continued until Zoktai was twelve in 1549. Exploring Limsa one day he stumbled upon Mealvaan's Gate the massive library inside enchanted him, from then on he spent every waking minute he could reading and learning from the guild. Using his allowance he started buying other books on studies of variety of technologies and relicsfor the public eye. Taking lessons from various other members he started practicing Arcanistry being fascinated by being able to apply poison at a distance with Arcanistry. At fifteen he summoned his first carbuncle immensely enjoying the companion.
Fall of the year 1555 at 18 Zoktai returned home to find it ravaged with his mother killed. One of his father's missives got him tangled with a foreign pirate group known as the Bloody executioners that wanted revenge for several of their own being killed. This filled Zoktai with rage and guilt at a variety of sources the Excutioners, his father, and just the world at large for someone who have performed no wrong be punished. Upon his father return from a mission his father wracked with grief turned to simply drinking between his missions bringing far less literature and far less interactions with his son. Knowing he wasn't strong enough to hunt after the pirates alone and not believing in his father recovering at all Zoktai was looking for ways to avenge his mother and bring her soul peace. Mercenaries were not an option and due to his age and little wealth he realized how useless he was. While heading to his usual reading spot a month later at the Arcanist guild he saw a Vessel apart of the Knights of the Baracuda 4th Squadron. His father was working with the 2nd Battlion. Asking to enlist he did his best to sell himself as a cabin boy hoping that with their training he could actually make use of himself and become strong enough to right the wrong to his family. After a week of pleading and showing his current skills with Arcanistry and familiarity with sea charts. He was allowed to clean decks and be in charge of resupplying the ship when they came into port. A little peeved by this he begrudgingly accepts securing a place apart of the Squadron. He meets his dad that night who gives him a gift, a ring he received from his wife saying he has news for him. His father tells Zoktai he's going to head home which surprises Zoktai. Zoktai tells him his own plans lying saying he wants to perfect his potions with the Baracudas. They argue at first his father listing reason after reason of why he shouldn't enlist ,but then after Zoktai's own stubbornness in the face of his father explains that it is their clan's way of life to go and explore this world for better understanding of their craft. With his father blessing he wishes his dad well on his travels as well. Toarbiashi gives Zoktai modest sum of gil as well as a a knife for his own protection. A few days later after saying his good byes Zoktai receives his own custom grimoire from the Arcanist Guild as a going away present. Accepting it with a heavy heart he joins the Knights of the Baracuda 4th Squadron and heads to the indigo Sea along with the others. 

Life off the coast Sharyala was quiet on the outset. Within a year Zoktai unfortunately ran into his first battle. Their ship came under attack from what seemed to be a rival factions scouting vessel. When they counterattacked they were boarded. Zoktai being put in a unfortunate situation used his magicks to defend himself with the help of another crew member assisting him by the name of Troewyb a Sea Wolf who was sailor and two years older then him. They were able to repel the invaders. Unfortunately Zoktai had his first taste of dealing death when doing a body count with others one of the Garlean survivors was in a weaken state rised suddenly to grab at him Zoktai panicked and stabbed him with his father's knife killing him. This bothered him for a moon. Troewyb tried to comfort him telling him it was necessity. The thing was the death itself didn't bother him he was more disturbed at how weak his poisons were and how he needed to be more effective in killing other pirates to make sure they couldn't hurt anyone again. This inspired him to use battles as a way to experiment on enemies and making his Arcanistry more deadly to the slight disturbance of his pears. After another few battles at sea he realized his arcanistry was growing and decided to redouble his efforts into getting better at his studies to become more potent at it. He also asked for assistance in learning the basics of weapons that some of his crewmen used to help out in case he needed a fall back. Out of this a Mi'Qote crew-mate by the name of Horokoloan taught him how to use knives. Another taught him the skill of using a musket and cutlass. He felt better learning these traits just in case his grimoire was damaged our he had to depend on other means. As he worked more along the sea the ship occasionally stopped on the cost to deal with Sharylan merchants who would sell necessities in exchange for Garlean tools, relics found, and surplus stolen that could be gleam for knowledge. Curious about the tradings and having his job be a part of it Zoktai was taught the business of haggling and management for the ship. During one trade he 'confiscated' what seem to be some a rumored 'Revolver'. He learned how to repair and maintain it from another pirate on board and thought it was a sufficient substitute in case he couldn't have time to read his spells yet can equally keep enemies at a range. 1567 over the course of four years Zoktai got even more proficient with his arcansitry. His skills with his knives and revolver were excellent and thanks to earning the spot of working under the ship navigator as well as learning tid bits from books he personally bought from the merchants of sharyla on navigation and astrology he became a excellent navigator and tradesmen. The ship was headed to limsa to restock resuppply and report findings for their yearly report. Almost within reach the ship was attacked by Leviathan heavily damaging the ship Zoktai was thrown off board as Leviathan lured away by some far off group moved inland close by. After being pulled aboard a lifeboat. He was dumbstruck watching the serpent's power and seeing it go towards land amazed if not terrify Zoktai. Further more seeing it actually be defeated by the Company Of Heroes was a simply unbelievable . Boarding life boats and having to paddle to shore. Zoktai and most of the crew unfortunately went to Limsa to report the damages. They would have to wait before a new ship was settled. Using this chance to catch up immediately went to the arcanist guild strangely enough with Troewyb in tow. Catching up with some members he began reading again while Troewyb went off to do her own thing at the fishing guild. He compared notes he took with notes from others at the guild fascinated with their discoveries he reveled the new information also doing his best to scribe the Sharylan notes he took as well. After awhile he over heard a visiting adventurer about the research the could do with their travels. Hearing this he wondered if he could do more experiments and learn by seeing the world and setting out to find himself. Two moons past and he was back on sea setting course once again for Indigo Sea. Aside from battles explorations and trading. Zoktai sea travels were curbed as the Garlean influence increased with the invasion. In 1572 Zoktai's ship came under fire from a Garlean vessel sustaining heavy damage barely managing an escape thanks to reinforcements from two more fleets. They made it to Limsa to repair and restock. Zoktai soon heard word that not only an alliance formed between most of Eorzea, but the admiral was planning to reinstate the Malestorm Command. Zoktai really didn't care at first until he was told the Knights of the Baracuda would be the main fighting force. Filling out the main nine squadrons. Upon enlistment Zoktai was given the rank of 4th Squadron's Navigator and Supply Commander for his 17 years of service. Even given rites to his own medium vessel to command in 2 years time. It was interesting this would be Zoktai's first grand scale battle and he was also under a new banner. He Prepped his small supply troop which was in charge of medical ,supplies, and armament ammo's, .He followed his captain and others into battle.

What started as a solid formation and well kept strategy, Was suddenly circumnavigated halfway into the battle. As the front lines were being pushed back by the sudden introduction of Magitek Armor Zok's small squad was tasked with getting supplies away from the fighting. After the adventurers rejoined the battle the tides were turned and things were going well. Until the heavens fell. The impact and quake after it tore Zoktai and Co attention away allowing themselves to be ambushed. They recovered not sustaining many losses. However A Garlean Thaurmurturge wasable to strike Zoktai with a blizzard spell rupturing from his chest. Due to his exhaustion an d lack of guard against such magicks it did a massive blow incapacitating him. Events are foggy here ,but he was saved by Troewyb as they retreated.


Seventh Umbral Era
Adulthood
A few days after the Calamity, Zoktai came to. Dealing with the stress of his injury and the night terrors plaguing him, he held an intense fear of ice-based magics. After recuperating, he decided, with his Admiral’s permission, to take a leave of absence from the Maelstrom. After stopping by the arcanist’s guild, he went for a walk in Middle La Noscea with his old grimoire in hand. As he chose a nice reading spot, he heard screaming and looked up to find an adventurer by the name of Kiht Zalika being chased by a goobue. After assisting her and scolding her for attempting a large mark without proper practice in arcanistry, he began tutoring her in the arts of basic arcanistry. With this incentive, Zoktai decided to become an adventurer for a while.

Summers pass and thanks to Zoktai’s travels through La Noscea and Thanalan, he meets quite a few adventurers with Kiht alongside him. She turned to the art of Thaumaturgy at the complaints of Zoktai. While exploring, Zoktai used his previous experiences to create connections with traders, researchers, and other merchants. Using these connections, he contributes to the Calamity rebuilding effort. He continued practicing alchemy to give Kiht an alternative rather than allow her to use ice magic around him. They made many discoveries together and have a few secrets as well. After several summers, he returned to Limsa with newfound confidence. With several recommendations from allies in the yellow jackets and higher ranks in the Maelstrom from his Knights of the Barracuda days, he’s allowed to work as a Storm Captain. He uses previous connections and treasures he’s found in his adventuring days to help supply and reinforce his division of the Maelstrom. Willing to use both natural might and resources from arcanistry, alchemy, and Allagan tech he’s “acquired”, he earned the right to his own trading vessel. With this and several acclaims, such as establishing trading routes for Maelstrom supplies in dangerous waters and creating potent artillery fire to use against Garleans, Zoktai slowly crawled up the ranks to High Storm Trade Sales Commander. Using his own personal funds he earned from regular trade, he bought two more vessels, one he donated to the Maelstrom as another trade vessel, and the other he personally uses for general “normal” trading. After that, Zoktai starts appointing captains to lead his ship while he stays stationed in Limsa.

A Realm Reborn As he continued working in the Maelstrom, he decided to create a lab to start practicing experiments on both his alchemy and Allagan arts in arcanistry. Slowly, he makes a connection with the Sons of Saint Coinach. Being invited to a meeting of the minds, Zoktai, with Kiht as a guard, headed to Mor Dhona through the North Shroud and Coerthas Central Highlands. However, as they travel through the highlands, temple knights accosted them due to Zoktai’s appearance. After negotiations failed and he was labelled a heretic, with Kiht’s assistance, they slay the knights. Angered at not only being assaulted by the temple knights, but also being referred to as some monstrous creature, Zoktai copied his parents’ ways of hiding his appearance. After hiding the bodies in the snow, the two proceeded to Mor Dhona. Meeting with Rammbroes Zasertylsyn, Zoktai happily exchanges information on both magics and relics he’s “found”. At the agreement of future information being sent to the Sons of Saint Coinach, Zoktai was allowed a summoner’s soul crystal of ancient Allag, which he’s supposed to have for research purposes only. Zoktai agreed to this arrangement and asked for permission to research Allagan technology and history. Aside from a minor hiccup, Zoktai with Kiht in tow, teleports slowly back to Gridania and then Limsa Lominsa. Zoktai balanced working in his lab, perfecting new poisons, and working on inventions of his own design based on reverse engineering of Allagan tech he acquired. As time went on, at the behest of Kiht, he was dragged along on adventures, some which he wished he never joined, such as fighting off the primal Titan, as well as helping out the exploration of the Beldahian Ruins. As time went on, a call went out to the grand companies for a joint assault on the Castrum Meridianum. As his rank entailed, Zoktai helped secure supply lines for Maelstrom forces. Thanks to adventurers, the operation was a success. For a while, life was calm for Zoktai until he got a call to arms from his friend Kiht once again. Almost rejecting her outright, he was tasked to help with protecting the Steps of Faith. Regrettably, and unable to leave Kiht alone, Zoktai dons a disguise and goes to assist with repelling dragons from the Steps of Faith. Working on the outskirts to repel smaller dragons, Zoktai is speechless when he notices Vishap. Seeing the giant dragon made Zoktai feel as though it would be safer to tend to the smaller dragons rather than go to the front-lines. After a successful mission, Zoktai left before celebrations started, citing his success under his name with the Maelstrom. He went back to his cycle of experiments and managing his ships. An idea struck him, and, using the fortune that he obtained from his own dealings, created a free company focused on protection and dealing with threats to the realm of Eorzea. Many members joined for their own various reasons. With the creation of the free company, Zoktai resumed focusing on his experimentation, Arcanistry, and alchemy as his trade ships were almost running themselves. He decided to make another form of income with the Zetsubou Tavern in La Noscea.

Heavnsward A little later, Zoktai started teaching several people various arts in Arcanistry and alchemy and sought to spread knowledge to others in both fields. However, he realized his own weakness; he knew how to use physical weapons, but didn’t have the strength compared to others. Deciding to focus on his old experiments to harness aether, he proceeded to tinker and work to alleviate this. At this point, Kiht invited Zoktai to see Ishgard for himself. Extremely wary, Zoktai followed Kiht. There, he’s made a connection with the Sky Steel manufacturer. He fell in love quickly due to previous experience of using a revolver. Being given a soul stone for the machinist’s guild, he happily took both an aether transformer as well as various other contraptions to experiment with. This led to several technologic advancements he kept to his personal use. Such as Aetheral weaponry, Suits, egi augmentation and much more. Inspired to further his studies in this field he started amassassing a group of soldiers for personal training and testing.

Storm Blood Zoktai was called into action when the great battle of Ala Mahigo was orchestrated between the Eorzean alliance. He was kept busy keeping supply lines running as he continusly maintaned routes while helping small insurgence of garlean interloopers. As the battles rage on Zoktai had to balance working on his own experiments secretly while going at his job as a Commander in full force. As things heated up with the battle for Ala Mahigo Zoktai had to be sent over to the Far East for procuring a new provision to help his personal crews stay healthy over long Voyages. This led him and his personal assemble of servants travel to Kugane to do business. However it wasn't just for his ships that he sought out kugane. He proceeded to do research into new ingridents,parts, and ideas for his experiments. Due to an unforseen change of events. He actually ended up seeking his family too thus discovering a variety of new poisons to work with as well as medicines to share with his Grand Company. Heading home after procuring a secondary inn to work from at a distance. He now was enlightened with more ideas to help the war effort. Overhualing some of his ships and crews with some advancements he himself made. After the war came to a close Zoktai through some connections of a friend was able to travel to the Allagna Facality Azy la. There he found -Redacted-.Now Zoktai is back to his work overseeing his tavern and making Limsa safer one day at a time.

Shadowbringer To be written.


In Recent Times
As if now Zoktai is working on making a task force of his own private use. He indulges in teaching others as well always out to help make a profit. He is perfecting his poisons along side his skills to focus on making Limsa a safer place. Never forgetting what made him begin his journey at sea in the first place.

RP Limits
I like to consider myself a flexible player who is willing to commit to a number of different types of scenes and role-play scenarios, but even I have my limits. If something is on the play list, assume it means yes, as long as it's within the context of the current play or ongoing plot. No's are typically a hard no, and it means don't ask.
I will play Villian or the betrayer. Also don't mind being a sponcer or a middle man in an arangment ot let other characters meet. Need a npc? I can also fill the role to help you get started on something else.
Ask about Scaring violent actiosn toward him and out right 'catching or stopping' him i dont mind him being thwarted ,but i don't want it to be a cake walk for whoever is doign the thwarting.
I won't play Pure heroics except for those he's close to. I don't want him to die anytime soon so his death is on hold. IF you want him to be a hero or some savior be prepared for him to do it for underhanded reasons or expecting profit after the deed.
RP Hooks
While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. Longer plots that are meant to run for more than a few quick RP's, please feel free to send me a tell so we can work out a good reason for our characters to get to know one another. I'm always looking for RP, unless I'm actively spamming PvE content.
■ Allagan anything.
■ Lab Experimentation.
■ Ruin Exploration.

OOC Notes
Player Information
Player Note
There is a lot of information on this character wiki, but it is by no means completely comprehensive. There are chunks of backstory that are left intentionally vague so that details can be later added as developed through creative writing or in role-play revelation. Feel free to use Common or Uncommon rumors freely, if you want to use a Rare Rumor as a plot hook or to spark RP, I would ask that you send me a tell first, to make certain it's alright.
Character Lore Adherence
Everything concerning this character that has not been confirmed by in-game lore should be taken with a grain of salt. Anything that has had to be changed because of lore shifting will be noted below.
■ His back story that's written and unwritten is free to change since I'm still learning about lore.
Character Concept
He's based off of the concept of a classic villain. His aim isn't bad , but his methods are. He's not doing things to break laws or ruin an establishment. He just wants his city and home to be safe and by exstenion his country and family.I wanted a villain who was neutral in large matters while he was slowly working in the shadows to further goals for a good cause. With all the wrong means.
