Appearance & Personality
- J'zarah has jet black hair tipped with blonde highlights, which are more pronounced in the back. His mismatched eyes come from his parentage, inheriting his father's eye color in the left eye and his mother's in the right. He has a cross-shaped scar across his cheek, given to him during an attack by Leviathan on his captain's ship - though the scars of the flesh pale in comparison to the scars of the soul. His personality is fairly laid back, though he does exhibit some of the typical roguish qualities - snark and confidence most of all. He tries to use humor to overcome his problems, though sometimes his anxiety leaks to the forefront around people he feels he can be vulnerable with.
Biography
Childhood
- J'zarah was raised mostly as a Keeper of the Moon with his mother, rarely seeing his father due to his own tribal obligations and how Keeper clans operate. The other kids knew he wasn't quite like them, but he managed to carve out a few friendships either way. He was particularly fond of playfighting, and the marksmanship lessons his clan gave interested him, though his hands never felt quite suited to the bow. He visited La Noscea a few times growing up, mostly to see his father for a day or two, and always felt more at home on the sands than the shade of the trees in the Shroud, feeling a particular fondness for the ocean.
Teenage
- After coming of age, he decided to leave his mother's clan by choice rather than being expelled, travelling to La Noscea to seek out his own way of life. After a fated encounter in Limsa, he fell in with a band of pirates, sailing on their ship and operating as part of the crew for several years - at least, until they were set upon by the Sahagin and their god, Leviathan, in the dead of night during a vicious storm. Scared witless after seeing their captain cut down before his eyes, his fear led him to slip away in the darkness and commandeer the lifeboat, stealing away into the night with a cherished companion - only to watch them succumb to the injuries they had sustained, leaving him alone with his grief. Struggling with survivor's guilt and remorse for his actions, he drifted at sea aimlessly until being happened upon by a trade vessel, who were kind enough to carry him back to port. His crossed scar across his cheek gives him constant reminder of his cowardice that day, and what he had lost.
Present
- At present, J'zarah uses the gunslinging skills he acquired during his pirate days to take on work as a mercenary, bounty hunter, and bodyguard, spending most of his free time otherwise socializing and looking for new jobs in Limsa Lominsa. His wandering lifestyle keeps him from staying put for too long, keeping him from making long-lasting and meaningful relationships, out of fear that he'll lose those he holds dear once more. He yearns to, some day, captain his own ship, with the goal to eventually lead his own crew in the fight against the fishbacks and their god, hoping to avenge his former crewmates and making the sea safer for other vessels.
- After meeting a Bozjan refugee in a tavern while seeking work and admiring the gunblade he carried, fascinated by its unique fusion of weapons he was familiar with and realizing the potential it carried, not only to stand out amongst the other mercenaries, but also the raw destructive power it could bring in the hands of a skilled wielder, he convinced the old hrothgar to teach him in its ways.
