Sash'a Zhwan

[edit] Details Personality Relationships Rumors Gallery OOC Notes BACKGROUND Sash’a Zhwan was born and raised and Gridania, along with his twin brother Sash’to.The twins were born to formerly tribal parents, who had both left their tribes to be with each other.Their mother being a keeper and their father a seeker, their love was forbidden. Sash’to followed in his father's footsteps and learned all he could about hunting, while Sash’a followed his mother's footsteps and became a conjurer and healer. Sash’a started learning the art when he was very young. He was often at the guild due to his various ailments as a child. However, most of what he learned was from his mother's teachings, which he still carries with him to this day. When he was only nine years old Sash’a started to hear mysterious voices in the shroud. At first he told no one but his brother, fearing he might be crazy, but eventually his brother encouraged him to speak to their mother about it. After much consulting with the guild it was revealed that he was a hearer, someone that could listen to the elementals and convey their will. However, before Sash’a could get any formal training on what it meant to be a hearer, his mother died in a tragic healing accident and his father uprooted the family to Uldah. Although unhappy about the move at first, Sash’a and his twin got used to their new home. Sash’a started learning more about the art of thaumaturgy from the guild and his brother studied hand to hand combat at the pugilists guild. Although he struggled with it at first, after a lot of studying Sash’a started to get the hang of thaumaturgy as well and now mixes the two styles of magic in his combat. Everything changed when one day their father went missing without warning. The twins went searching for him together for a year, which brought them to all different parts of Eorzea. Unfortunately, most of their trails ran cold. Sash’a wanted to give up, but his twin refused. Sash’to decided to follow one of the leads alone, one that lead to Gyr Abania, and has since gone missing as well. It’s been over a year since the letters from him suddenly stopped. Since that time Sash’a has taken up volunteering at a clinic, and running his own for the company of mercenaries that has taken him in. He has tried conducting searches in the past for his brother and father, but always returned empty handed. APPEARANCE Sash’a is very slight and small, even for a Miqo’te, only standing at 5'2.7" tall. Like the average moonkeeper he is very pale, but unlike the average he also has very light, almost platinum, blonde hair, which he often likes to streak with colours using various plant dyes. He has very light freckles on his face, which get tend to fade or get darker depending on his sun exposure. He enjoys weaving various flowers into both his hair and tail, often to match the blossom earrings he enjoys wearing. He is rather fond of very light pink tones and often incorporates them into every outfit he wears, mostly because the color reminds him of his late mother. The Miqo’te also has mismatched eyes with one appearing a bright crimson while the other is a strange milky white color, however that eye can be hard to see as he often styles his hair to hide it. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ One of his eyes has been discolored to a milky white and when seen up close appears very cloudy and unfocused. ■ He is very pale and can sometimes appear almost deathly pale when afflicted with something. PERSONALITY Sash’a is the epitome of happy-go-lucky. Most of the time he comes across as having little worries or cares. Overall he is easy going and enjoys talking to anyone, once he gets past the initial shyness of meeting someone new. However, he often comes off as very socially awkward and strange at first, due to a somewhat sheltered upbringing. In his attempts to get to know people he can come off as nosy or prying, usually asking lots of random questions. Most of the time he will speak without a filter, saying whatever random thing is on his mind. He often misses certain subtleties in conversations, such as sarcasm, and can have a hard time following at times. He is quite the air head most of the time, often forgetting to take care of himself in the most basic ways, like feeding himself. The only subject he really has any knowledge of is aetherology or magics, since he has a natural affinity with it and has studied it from a young age. He is prone to talking someones ear off and rambling on and on when it comes to certain topics, especially magics which he is more drawn to. Sash’a is very naive and gullible. He always tries to see the good in everyone to the point where he may blind himself to their true nature. As a result he can be easily taken advantage of by the wrong people. He also has a hard time lying and has pretty obvious tells. He can have a hard time taking things serious and even when he is serious about something it can appear like he isn’t. H O B B I E S ■ Gardening.He enjoys planting food for himself and in fact this is his main source of sustenance. He also enjoys planting and crossbreeding different types of flowers. ■ Botany.

Artwork Screenshots ಌ OOC NOTES ಌ OOC INFORMATION Player Note Looking for long-term rp partners mostly. Acquaintances are fine too, really I’m open to all types of rp. Romance is a plus, but I don't like to start off with it. I like the tension and lead-up to a relationship and for the characters to actually get to know each other before they become committed. I like long term story/character driven rp, with lots of character development and relationship building. Casual meet-ups are fine too. I'm pretty laid back when it comes to rp and will do mostly anything. Personal RP Limits ■ I will play Darker themes, mature rp, casual rp, slice-of-life, fluff, plot-driven rp, long-term rp ■ I won't play Permanent character death, permanent character injury (without occ discussion first), erp (without a relationship first), extreme violence or gore (without ooc discussion first), voidsent possession Disclaimer Little Tidbits. ■ I am in the eastern timezone (est) and have a full time job. During weekdays I often am online in the evenings after work and will be online more often on the weekends. I prefer to roleplay in game, but am also open to doing scenes over discord. ■ Although I have a few alts, Sash'a is my main. If a relationship forms I would prefer it to be with another main or character that is very active, since I spent a majority of my time on this character. CHARACTER TIDBITS Potential Plot Hooks These are just a few things I've brainstormed to possibly get an rp started. Their not set in stone and I'm pretty open to suggestions as well. I can be flexible and luckily Sash'a is pretty easy to insert into various situations. The only thing I have a harder time seeing him doing is any sort of criminal rp at the moment. Other then that its pretty much free game. ■ Sash'a is always looking for mentors. Right now his primary focus is healing, in both traditional methods and more magic based ones. He would be open to mentors who practice either method or both. Especially if they employ a magic he is unfamiliar with, given he is always open to learning new things. He'd also accept learning from someone more adept at combat magic of even certain styles of swordsmanship (rapiers). ■ Sash'a is always looking for leads about his brother. Since his brother was last seen in Gyr Abania he is mostly interested in talking to characters from there or who became apart of the resistance movement. ■ If your character needs healing Sash'a is always willing to offer his expertise and can even borrow from his companies clinic if needed. Since he's a softy he's always willing to help in anyway he can, no matter the circumstances that lead to the injury. ■ He is no stranger to adventure and even works as one part time when his clinic doesn't bring in gil. He won't be able to resist the call of a thrilling adventure or treasure hunt. Character Lore Adherence I designed Sash'a as a character to adhere with the lore. He's not a white mage, nor a black mage or anything else of that manner. However, oocly I'm just fine with a little lore bending here and there and wouldn't call myself lore strict. It just has to be reasonable within the lore of the game and make sense for the story line or the characters.
