Markings

. . . . .
Hair & Eyes
His eyes are pale and piercing inside blackened eyelids, his pupils wide and inviting. He has an angular face with masculine features and slight age surrounding his eyes, suggesting that he is entering if not firmly planted in his prime.
His hair, on the other hand, is soft and curled, wisps of it all about his head as if untamed and unruly - small tufts of his hair cover his left eye on occasion, and refuse to be tucked away.
Physique & Markings
There are scars littered across his body, which when seen dancing, are exposed to the eyes of onlookers. These scars have been created by a whip, for the most part, and a few dagger cuttings here and there. This, to most, would indicate that the young man might have spent quite a lengthy portion of his life as a slave.
Should you have the opportunity to see below his armour, his back is covered in lash-scars, presumeably from a whip, as well as a few left from sword wounds across his ribs and midriff, suggesting a lifetime of punishments in his past. Though, due to the colour of his skin, these blemishes are not necessarily as noticable as they would have been in his natural pale state.
Hygiene & Attire
Much like there are two sides to a coin, Szhiid'ir can be seen in one or two ways: either wearing expensive, glittery dancing clothes or expensive coats, or simple, cheap 'peasant' clothes - there is no in-between.
His dancing clothes are always in top condition - it would seem that he paid a pretty penny not only to purchase them in the first place, but also to keep them in that very same condition as when he bought them.
Personality
Psychological Profile
Szhiid'ir appears to be fine, in the present. However, he has an extensive history with post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and a handful of other such issues.
Voice
His voice is deep and ashen, as if he'd spent a lot of time around bitter air. However, there are no rasps in his voice, even when startled he speaks clearly and confidently.
Philosophy & Mannerisms
Szhiid'ir has always taken what he wanted, be it the affection of a woman, or the life of a foe. In that same respect, he has become greedy over the course of his lifetime and likes to hoard treasures, often pilfering them from unsuspecting company in conversation - his moral compass is forever spinning.

High: Pain Tolerance
Above Average: Bloodlust*
Average: Combat Tactics
Low: Anti-Magic Tactics
Non-Combat Abilities
Hide: Using his limited skills in illusory magic, Szhiid'ir envelopes himself in a shroud of reflective, seemingly-see-through veil, rendering him invisible to untrained eyes. This gives him the opportunity to strike at a foe without being seen. (High-Mastery magic users may be able to dodge) This skill also enables Szhiid'ir to scout out an area without drawing attention to himself or his company.
Combat Abilities
Flaming Arrow: Szhiid'ir lights his arrowhead on fire, aiming the furious point at his foe. (Those with high agility or good hearing may be able to dodge)
Shade Shift: Szhiid'ir creates several 'shadow' versions of himself. Whilst in hindsight they may look very little like him, in the moment some foes may consider them to be the 'real' Szhiid'ir - these clones cannot harm, but they can feign attacks and move on their own. (Magic users will be able to silence/cancel this effect)
OOC Note
For combat-RP I prefer to go by emotes, rather than the use of spells unless taking down large groups of mobs for area clearing. The actions which Szhiid'ir will use in fights will often have nothing to do with in-game spells and abilities.


History
.
Disclaimer: .
Sixth Astral Era
Childhood
Szhiid'ir and his family lived a rather isolated, non-ordinary life as a single-family tribe unit. His mother was removed from her tribal setting upon being found infertile and cripplingly injured. She instead took to aiding Miqo'te cubs which had been either handed off, or left abandoned without a family to take care of them themselves. Because of this upbringing, Szhiid'ir's links with other Keepers, or even Seekers for that matter, are rather thin - he has knowledge of their ways of life, but has never had those traditions forced upon him, due to how his family was so different in the beginning.
When his time came to leave, just as his brothers had, to pursue dreams, find mates and what-not, Szhiid'ir found himself too trusting of stranger-folk, and was in fact taken against his will and forced to work as a slave, being transported willy-nilly aboard slave ships from owner to owner until he was eventually liberated.

Seventh Umbral Era
Adulthood
In his adult life he has taken to bringing down the very same type of men which had shackled him to those ships. His work in bounty hunting has also led him through various caves and lost-cities, in search of fiends, friends and treasure. His unique upbringing has opened doors for him to new opportunities - to meet folk of all walks of life, including the more 'usual' Keepers and Seekers alike and to learn from them as he may.

Family
Aszhi Molkot, Mother. ( ) -
"My mother..- For the longest time, the only woman that I had ever known, was Aszhi. She taught me how to fend for myself, despite never being much of a fighter, herself - she taught me compassion, grace and even though some might say that I tend to abandon her teachings, if I returned home without them I'd be scolded like a cub. She's still one of the few people that I hold above myself in respect, love and admiration. We are not related by blood, but she has always cared for my brothers and I as if she'd toiled for months and months for our arrival. I only have one mother, and I am proud to say that Aszhi is that 'lucky' woman."
Khuja'a Molkot, Brother. ( ) -
"He's the oldest of my brothers, which means he tends to think that he has a god-given right to be a force of tyranny over the rest of us. It doesn't take long to learn whether or not you'll butt heads with Khuja'a - it all depends if you're easy to manipulate, or indeed not."
Zihla'to Molkot, Brother. ( ) -
"Zihla'to is kind enough to me, when compared to Khuja'a, even though he is the eldest beneath him - he's been gone for a while but it's so easy to slip back into standing with him - I don't need to worry about being lectured for failures which I haven't committed, and he treats me like an equal, as any friend would. Now if only I could get him to understand my relationship with Alcohol as much as he understands my relationship with women."
Ezrhil'li Molkot, Brother. ( ) -
"Ah.. I was never too close with Ezrhil'li. I couldn't see myself hating him, because he's family, but he's not my favourite sibling. There isn't much more I can say about him."
Hawu'sae Molkot, Brother. ( ) -
"He's got an issue with Khuja'a as well as I have, however, he has some kind of past with him, which to me seems like a far-fetched tale. He's kind, and sees me for my personality before my age."
Khede'ra Molkot, Brother. ( ) -
"Khede'ra, if I was to describe him, the first word that comes to mind is 'Brother'. That sounds strange, doesn't it? I have lots of brothers, and yet he is the one who I see as my closest, strongest relation. We've had many-a-night drinking in Limsa as friends, and as of late, in his new business he's offered to supply me with his creations for my work, as if he were a colleague. I can't remember a time when he has not been there for me, whether it's for company, finances or emergency."
Yhabi Molkot, Sister. ( ) -
"Yhabi is the youngest of our family, and that means that she's constantly loomed over by the rest of us. Whilst I try to treat her as equally as I can in order to set an example for my brothers, I've been known to be one of the worst when it comes to intervening in her life, breaking a few noses here and there. She's often excluded from our outings due to her age, and.. well, her gender, unfortunately."
Acquaintances
Taka Vhasa ( ) - The Recluse
"This tribeswoman was in danger, and so I offered to help by keeping her safe - whilst my brother Khuja'a thinks that it is an act of false heroism, I know what it is like to be running from somewhere, or someone, and never wanting to return, whilst at the same time being flung into new and strange experiences with all sorts of strange people - I figured I was doing what was right."
C'mahiin Tia ( ) - The Hunter
"A skilled hunter, no doubt. Whilst I've never seen him in action, he seems to know what he's talking about. Even if the majority of our initial conversation was the pair of us pointing out our differences, I think that if I were in a spot of trouble, I could depend on what most might consider an unlikely friend in C'mahiin."
Description
Vera Tala ( ) - Wolfmother
"The woman with the wolf..- She's quiet, and perhaps a little bit isolated, but she is not one of those anti-social types. Hopefully as I get to know her, she'll spark a bit more of my interest - so far, she's a pretty face with a very strong protective urge for nature, from what I gather."
Description
Nazzhund Solkbyrtsyn ( ) - The Bottom of the Bottle
"You can't miss Nazzhund in a room. As he put it, he looks as though he's strapped a pink chocobo's rear to his head, and he isn't wrong. Normally, friendly faces are just waiting for the right time to take what they want from you, and leave. However, Nazzhund defended me and my friends, when a group of poorly educated Au Ra decided that it would be a brilliant idea to pull weapons on us in the Coffin. Even still, with the humour comes a heavy heart with Nazzhund, and I hope that someone, someday can help him through his internal battles."
Description
W'mine Mihata ( ) - Miss Adventure
"She's a woman with far more wanderlust in her veins than I think I've ever had in my entire life. She may be shy, delicately so, but she is no damsel - I keep finding myself at her heels, and I hope that we'll have plenty of stories to tell, assuming she doesn't get sick of my company. She's almost had me killed three times, the least I can do is throw a few near-death excitement her way."
Emreg Belthen ( ) - The Stranger
"I don't meet many'a Hyur that leave a lasting impression. Emreg managed, perhaps because of the mouth on him - he's certainly not quiet about his thoughts. Whilst I know so little of him, I get the feeling that we'll make quite good friends as time goes on, even if I have to pin him to a chair to get a long enough timeslot with him - he's always on the run!"
Description
A'zumyn Jakkya ( ) - Zuzu
"The quick-witted redhead..- Need I say more? She's a lover of music, alcohol and irritating J'khot just as much as I am. Our meeting was brief, but I do intend to see her again in the future."
Description
Basisi Basi ( ) - The Short and Sneaky
"I don't think I've ever lost track of someone's location so many times in one conversation. Through getting in and out of her chair, a wardrobe change and the theft of my hat, 'Sisi was a hard one to keep my eye on..- perhaps because of Zuzu's presence at my hip. Still, Sisi has a good, witty head atop her tiny shoulders and I intend to keep her pinned for another few drinks in future."
Description
X'aria Shocaia ( ) - The Blonde
"X'aria and I only spoke for a few moments, and it was a nervous, quiet few moments at best. She is a sight for sore eyes from a distance, however.. my interaction with her proved to be akin to that of tip-toeing around a sleeping Coeurl. She's a delicate flower, too many walls to break down just to say hello."
Description
K'taryn Boqhua ( ) - Lacklustre Lover
"The first woman to toy with my heart..- luckily, she seemed to enjoy me making her a plaything just as she had me. It's been years on and off, occasional visits in heated passion only to grow distant like bored acquaintances once more. Sometimes I wonder if she's only up for my company to kiss and tell."
Reno Fawn ( ) - O Captain
"I had met her through Nazzhund, and I was surprised to see such a beautiful woman heading the title 'Captain'. Most Captains that I'd met had been haggard old men with enough nose hair to build a beard. Reno surprised me..- she had a sense of humour and a lovely lack of shame, suiting up in one of the Saucer's Bunny costumes in front of the entire Quicksand, upon my expression of interest in the ladies that do so in the Saucer itself. She really does suit fishnets."
Description
R'khei Tia ( ) - Nightowl
"I don't usually interfere with others' days, but.. I was restless. Nazz wasn't drinking and it's not as though I'd be drinking alone. R'khei happened to yawn rather loud in front of our little 'party', and caught my attention. Within minutes we were drinking, laughing, et cetera. I can see him becoming a good friend in due time."
Description
Damaris Laurent ( ) - The Doctor
"A kind woman with a good head on her shoulders. Pity she can't handle her drink, but we'll soon fix that!"
Description
Solemn Olive ( ) - The Pickup Artist
"It's not the first time I've been 'experimented' upon, socially. But, hey, at least Olive seemed interested in what I had to say - weaved the best tale I had for the girl and her friend, and got to learn a thing or two about them in return."
Description
Khojin Arulaq ( ) - A Whisperer
"She and Olive liked to talk among themselves, blatantly in front of my face. Not sure what I'd said, or whether I'd offended, but.. seems a little off putting at the least. Not sure whether either of them are to be trusted, based on that."
Description
Baidur Mol ( ) - The Kilted
"From what I can gather he's a good friend of Nazz's, just as I am. Baidur led me to believe that not all Xaela are as scummy as those I'd encountered, as he, himself, wasn't out to get me injured within the first five minutes of my meeting him. He also had a lot to say on the tribes, and the Twelve."
Description
Syvin Byrfhis ( ) - The Scribe
"I'd never met a man or woman without hearing till I met Syvin, and it was an interesting experience. I've the scrawl of a child, and yet he managed to communicate with me just fine in our little back-and-forth at the bar. He's got a great sense of humour and I do hope we see each other a fair few times in the future."
Description
Maril Hawker ( ) - The Medic
"She's very forward with her advertisement, but I know she's got good intentions with it all. It's not every day you get folks offering their services for free, especially mending services outside of a one-off campsite. She's got a clinic, and I'd wager it must be good if she's handing out papers."
Description
Atrian Defarge ( ) - Brawling Brother
"We've a long history, from bitter rivals, to good friends. I recently came back into contact with him in Ul'dah. Whilst he had to run off.. for whatever reason, we both owe each other a brawl in the brush, and I hope to gods he delivers!"
Description
Strong Muscles ( ) - Mentor
"Strong taught me everything I know, from when I first landed in Limsan territory, to the time I finally bucked up the courage to leave. When we first met I was malnourished, weak and skittish. Strong brought me into my own and I owe him a great deal for that."
Description
Former Acquaintances
Yue'la Lavoie ( ) - The Princess
"No surprise here - she's from a long line of pretty faces, but she was brave enough to leave her old life, hedging her bets on the fairytale of a man who snook into one of her family's affairs. I'm glad she came after me; whilst I'm not all that sentimental, and I'm certainly not a poet, having her around has given me a new outlook on things. I suppose it's nice having a little bit more of a purpose than gil and ale."
X'caizhen Tia ( ) - The Diplomat
"He was the man who helped me decipher what exactly had happened to Taka when she was hiding in the Quicksand - he healed her wound and translated our conversation together so that she could understand what I was trying to say. I probably came across as a little rude to him to begin with, which I kind'a regret but, in the end he seemed to trust me."
Description
Fafrung Bhaleghust ( ) - The Tin Can
"I've not known him for very long at all, however, I can tell he is going to be a good companion. He and I are in the same line of work, through the same organisation, though we lead very different lives, and both have very different reasons for doing what we do - maybe that will make up a good team."
Description
Deceased
Ivy Loreign ( ) - A Poisonous Love
"Of course, it would be just my luck that in the few times that I give a Hyur woman more than a single visit, I land myself into more shit than I've had to deal with in months. Ivy, Hevashe and Sthaltyrn were responsible for my brother's kidnapping in Limsan territory..- If she weren't caught quite literally red handed, I might have taken her up on another offer under the sheets. Pity."
Hevashe Lizeh ( ) - Havoc
"For a former partner in crime, quite literally, I'd expected better of her. Sure enough, she's always been a sly little spark, but to take my brother..- my brother, was her last mistake. Perhaps in teaming up with Ivy, she'd turned her spark to jealousy and put all of her efforts into making her former boy-toy suffer for exploring what our world's women have to offer. She always did like standing over a torturer's chair, but I never thought she'd try to put one of my breed in her chains, and because of that it's safe to say that she's not going to attempt such again."
Sthaltyrn Nystwaht ( ) - A Bad Gambler
"Considering he was the only one willing to speak, when I recovered my brother from his clutches, I suppose he has..- sorry, had some balls. We used to gamble together, betting on the fights in Limsa. All it took was for me to send him out of pocket for him to have some unjust life-long grudge against me. Knowing that he'd been living like the rat he was, I sent him some money in recent suns and I suppose that tipped him over the edge. He never was one for charity, but trying to cut my brother into tiny pieces surely isn't the way to go about vengeance over a game of cards."


Rumors
NPC Rumors

Some of these rumors are untrue, speculation, or are greatly exaggerated.

◢ Ul'dah Rumours -
"I could see him baking in the heat of day, and when I'm called up in the late hours of the night - that man never seems to sleep."
"Cocky as he may be, he's proven that he's not to be messed with, if you count the amount of inner-city brawls he's taken a part in."
"He's a good dancer, when he gets into it - dances for money, food, anything."
◢ Limsa Lominsa Rumours -
"He came in with a bunch of liberated slaves. The minute he branched off from them he was pushing his luck, causing trouble."
"Once saw him alone, late at night leaning over one of the more isolated ridges of Limsa, lowering something into the water. Whatever it was, the rope he was clutching was flailing around quite a bit - I didn't see anything more; I left before he could turn around and take me for a swim too."
"I've heard some pretty bad things he's done - but apparently he's bounty hunting now. So... he's effectively hunting down his own kind of people and ratting them out, if not killing them, for the sake of money. Doesn't sound very honorable to me."
◢ Gridania Rumours -
"He likes to play with hearts and toss 'em aside like they're nothing - always on the look-out for the next silly chase."
"I saw him once, sat on his lonesome with a brooding look on his face. I've been around when he's been cheering and drinking in the inn - seems to me like there's some kind of underlying persona beneath all of the extroversion. Whether good or bad, who knows?"

◢ Player Character Rumors - Some of these are more rare than others!
"S-Szhiid? Oh, well, yes I've been around him a lot lately. He's a kind man, and a sweet man. A gentleman even. What? No really! Why are you laughing so hard?!" — W'mine Mihata.

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 her 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.

Coinpurse: A simple coin purse made of soft leather, containing a few hundred gil.
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 an Antagonist, an Victim and a Protector. Mature themes: Gore, Sexual Content and Humour, Dark Humour, Drug Use/Alcohol, et cetera.
Ask about Death and Injury, as well as kidnapping/brawling. This is only due to my time being rather restricted - I wouldn't want anyone starting a plot with me that I couldn't finish.
I won't play non-cannon storylines, ERP, romance, et cetera.
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.

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.
