That day, the Gods took my beloved from me. And when I took up his blade, along with my own, I made a promise to him. A promise I will keep til my last breath.

Kharin, on the death of his partner.

General Information
Kharin is a Thavnairian blade dancer of Radz-at-Han, the Near East's capital. He previously belonged to an organisation called the Seekers, an elite among the noble guard in the Thavnairian Court. However, he was left the lone survivor of the Seekers after a battle with a djinn in the city, losing his fiancé in the process. Devastated by the loss, he made the decision to journey to Eorzea, having promised his beloved that he would follow his heart, and try to live a happy and fulfilled life as an adventurer.

Hair and Eyes
Kharin has long, rose-brown hair that reaches his waist. His eyes are typical of a Seeker of the Sun, a leafy green in colour.
Physique and Markings
Kharin has an athletic, muscular build by Miqo'te standards. He has danced all his life, and his enrolling in the Seekers only brought him more reason to train himself physically.
Hygiene and Attire
Kharin keeps himself extremely well-groomed, and you would be very lucky to find him ever letting himself go. However, his sense of duty always comes first and that occasionally means setting luxury aside. In terms of his attire, he usually wears a traditional Thavnarian dancer's outfit in combat, switching to something a little more comfortable when the situation allows.
Personality
Personality
Kharin is, on the surface, a fairly guarded person. He has learned, through a childhood as little more than a slave, that people in this world are not always quite as innocent and kind as they may first seem. Once he learns to trust someone, however, he is a loyal ally and a friend who would go to the ends of the earth to help his loved ones. He becomes flustered rather easily, as losing Feroze as he did forged him into a much more serious person, and romantic advances are the last thing he expects to receive.

History


Sixth Astral Era
Childhood
Kharin was born to slaves in the slums of Radz-at-Han. In a life he does all he can to forget, he was passed around from house to house among the noble families, separated from his parents once he was old enough to be put to work. He learned to sing and dance in an effort to keep himself clear of the more dangerous duties slaves were made to perform, often managing to get himself better living conditions in the process. Some families treated him as no better than a pet due to his Miqo'te features, others being kind enough to treat him as a guest in their homes. Eventually, once he came into adulthood, Kharin was bought out by the captain of the city guard, Feroze, so that he could join the ranks and live the life of a soldier, rather than a slave.

Seventh Umbral Era
Adulthood
Kharin and Feroze fell for one another during their time in the city guard, and together they climbed the ranks to join the Seekers, elite guardsmen who serve in the Thavnairian court protecting the nobles and Seers. After a Djinn attacked the capital and caused unforeseen bloodshed in the streets, the Seekers fought it off, with Feroze giving his life in the process. The lone survivor of his brothers in arms, Kharin could not bear to stay in the city a day past Feroze's burial. He journeyed to Eorzea - his lover's blade carried alongside his own - in order to fulfill a promise he made to Feroze, that he would live on and see the world for the both of them.

In Recent Times
Moving Forward
Since coming to Eorzea, Kharin has found himself plenty of work as a sellsword, mostly working from the desert oasis of Ul'dah. He is currently continuing on with his adventuring work, along with performing, so that he can raise funds to buy a house, rather than having to stay at The Quicksand each night in one of the various inn rooms.

Feroze Azur, Late Fiancé. ( ) - He who showed me that life is worth living.
Kharin's Thoughts:
"Feroze i- was, should I say, where my life truly began. Life before him is a foggy memory that I do not care to remind myself of, and life after him is... quiet. He was a great man, a brave man, the one who showed me how to take care of myself in a world so unforgiving. I look down at his blade now and I still see him holding it, sparring with me as we did so often. I loved him - I still do, but I know that won't bring him back to me. I shall never forget you, 'Roze."

Most of these aren’t public, and would have to be asked after!
Thavnair: The last remaining Seeker of the Thavnairian court. Kharin left the city, but as he did not officially step down, he could still be considered part of the city guard.
IC Inventory
The following items are things that this individual carries on their person at all times. These are noted for pickpockets, and those watching him closely. This information is meant to be a prompt for insight and is not to be meta-gamed, though feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in RP (pickpocketing, a search, etc) with use of a simple /tell.

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 Combat-orientated RP, social RP, mature/dark themes, light/fun RP.
Ask about ERP (Within context only, Kharin is not going to sleep with strangers.)
I won't play AU, Warrior of Light.
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.
■ Kharin's dancing. He does perform both with and without his weapons as a means to earn money.
■ His Thavnairian accent. It is quite distinguishable to anyone who knows much of Thavnair. (Compare to a real-world Arab accent, perhaps less thick).


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.

Tropes & Explanations
A trope is a convention or device that is often found in creative works. In this case, the tropes below describe my character either in part, or as a whole. Their background, personality, appearance, etc, most of them can be described in the tropes below.
Dance Battler - Kharin's fighting style involves a lot of evasive, dance-like movements alongside swordplay.
Ice King - Kharin can come off as cold to strangers, when in reality his past has just caused him to throw up a guard of sorts.
Taking Up The Mantle - Kharin taking Feroze's sword to wield alongside his own is an example of this.
