General Information
A Keeper with a big mouth and never enough innocent bystanders to inflict himself on. He works as a monster hunter, sell-sword, and thief, but also sells an impressive amount of knitted and crocheted goods. He also has a habit of involving himself in lost political causes and is particularly susceptible to anyone who’d regale him with new and terrifying conspiracy theories about ‘’the establishment’’.

Style
Loud confidence. Ambidextrous. Numerous. Various piercings. Overstated.
Hair & Eyes
A fluffy head of black hair with green highlights. He’s ever shaking his bangs out of his face, usually because he can’t be bothered to trim regularly. His eyes are usually lined and shadowed with bright colors.
Physique & Markings
Confrontational and violent, he’s well-suited for the business of hunting monsters and men. Lokh’a is even more reckless in combat than in conversation, and it’s little wonder why large swaths of his dark skin are mottled with the remnants of old wounds. He generally enjoys success in his work, however, so he’s not had any reason to consider caution. He sports various ear piercings.
Hygiene & Attire
He might clean up well, but he’s bound to end the night soaked in booze, blood, or some other mysterious liquid. His clothes (or more accurately, other people’s clothes which he 'recycles') are generally fashionable and clean, but it’s not uncommon for them to acquire stains and tears with minimal use. No matter, as the world is apparently wardrobe, gods help you all. He's also got incredibly sticky fingers when it comes to flashy jewelry...
Personality
General
An explosively energetic Keeper, Lokh’a’s mouth tends to be a never ending fount of anecdotes, grandstanding, and taunts. He has an opinion on nearly everything, even if he knows nothing about the subject at hand, and is quite convinced that even when he’s wrong, he’s somehow right. The Keeper also is a trove of outlandish conspiracy theories, most of which don’t sound the least bit probable. These usually come out once he’s smoked a few bowls or had just a bit too much to drink. Needless to say, many eventually find his presence grating.
Voice
Often loud and usually energetic. Its pitch is on the lower side and sometimes sounds rough around the edges when he’s spent the previous night yelling at the top of his lungs. It’s more common than most would like.
Philosophy & Mannerisms
Lokh’a seems to be driven by nothing more than a need for excitement and a good laugh. He doesn’t seem to be terribly interested in making something grand of himself, and most would rightly judge that his ambitions can be found settled comfortably at the bottom of a mug of ale. He does tend to get worked up over certain political issues, however, especially when under the influence of the various substances he's fond of abusing.

OOC Note
I prefer freeform combat, but also rely on dice in situations where both characters seem more evenly matched and it's requested. I've no problem with Lokh'a getting his ass kicked (and often) so long as there's no blatant god-moding that wasn't agreed upon beforehand.



History


Sixth Astral Era
Childhood
Lokh’a grew up a kitten in a litter larger than he could count until someone bothered to take the time to teach him what numbers were. Needless to say, being male and uninterested in learning traditional Keeper ways, he was not looked fondly or doted upon. Around the age of twelve, he decided he’d had quite enough of this apparent bullshit and ran away without another thought. He fell in with a group of bandits in the southern parts of the Shroud where he was taught the ways of thievery and profitable mischief. Naturally, during these new formative years, he had the time of his life. He also reconnected with his Keeper culture during this time, somewhat ironically, and began to tiptoe back into tribal life.

Seventh Umbral Era
Adulthood
The Calamity scattered his family of bandits, many of them perishing or disappearing from the realm. Lokh’a, experiencing the keen edge of loss for the first time, wandered in a state of dismal torpor, eventually finding his way to Thanalan. There he found himself falling in with another group of bandits who preyed primarily upon the roads leading to and from the Shroud. He lingered with them for several years, unable to connect to any of them like he had with his foster Shroud family. The Keeper eventually left, drifting from ragtag group to group within Ul’dah and the surrounding areas without direction.

In Recent Times
Moving Forward
He’s recovered much of his old enthusiasm for life, though these days he seems to more keenly feel the fear that the many conspiracies he espouses brings him. The family he lost in the Calamity he's rebuilt in Ul'dah after a fashion, albeit in a mismatched and often confusing tangle of connections. He even makes regular visits back to the Shroud to fulfill any Keeper duties requested of him and, as such, has sired a fearsome number of kittens. Kittens which descend upon his doorstep with some regularity when their mothers need a temporary peace. Usually the ones that take after the father.
