AppearanceHair: Black, with grey peppered through
Skin: Pale peach, almost pallid
Eyes: Black
Height: 207.4cm
Weight: 154 ponzes
Build: Wiry- Tuva is a relatively short Auri man with a rather lean, almost wiry build; his top half has more obvious muscle than his lower half, given his preference for archery, though he's still nowhere near buff. Oddly enough, his skin appears unblemished, unscarred, almost pristine for a man of the Steppe. Apart from that, he's fairly bog standard, physically--
Oh, unless his ink-stained teeth and obscenely long, flat, gently pointed tongue count as weird. They probably do.Disregard, he cleaned his mouth out so the black's mostly gone. The tongue's still pretty long though.

Nose-scratching when he's nervous or agitated, touching the tip of his tongue to his nose, rolling his obscenely long tongue out of his mouth and generally being disgusting with it, tucking his quill in weird places (mostly the gap between his front teeth), needing to keep his hands busy
Biography- Tuva was just your average Dalamiqi boy for most of his life; he swam, he fished, he bickered with his seven older sisters, and he was a pain in the ass for at least the first twenty years of his life. And then he met a traveller, a foreigner, on a rare trip to Reunion, and he became infatuated with them. This would've been probably disaster enough if he hadn't also taken this spark of inspiration as a perfectly good reason to escape the impending challenge to his father, who had declared that he would take on all comers, but only after his only son had completed his challenge for khanship.
- Naturally, Tuva, being a rather idiotic kid barely out of his teens and terrified of the responsibility and pressure being khan would bring, chose to follow the foreigner out of the Steppe instead. Because he was just an obnoxious kid, not even temporary affection borne of necessity and closeness could carry him that far, and things broke down very messily with Tuva's beautiful foreigner and left him alone, ignorant of life outside of the one world he'd known, and all he could do was slowly make his way to Aldenard.
- And here he is, 43 summers and a little more forced in how carefree he is, a lot more practiced in slang Common, and without a single gil to his name. He's essentially living off of Momodi's charity in the Quicksand, occasionally doing errands and chores for her in return, and too ashamed to return to the Dalamiqi village or even let his parents know that he's alive.
Relationships♥ Romantic Interest, ♥ Sexual Interest, ♥ Platonic Love, ♦ Good Standing, ● Neutral Standing, ↓ Poor Standing- Romantic Interest
- ♥♥ Banan Oronir - Fucking Banan. Tuva's trying so hard to cut off his feelings and every time Banan comes near him he just melts into a happy puddle, even if he knows upfront that he's just getting toyed with. Fucking Banan. At least he still makes Tuva want to be a better person.
- ♥♥ Sun-rah Osiris - Rah started out as yet another 'good kid', even though Tuva's his junior by a few thousand years, but Rah's gentleness and willingness to take on Tuva's need for simple acts of physical affection took him slowly past that level to easy platonic closeness. And then maybe not quite so platonic closeness. Rah's just terribly easy for Tuva to be around, and he, like Banan, brings out a lot of Tuva's better qualities.
- Platonic Love
- ♥ Toshi Kiba - Although he probably wouldn't ever admit this in any kind of serious fashion, Tuva's pretty much mentally assigned himself to the role of Toshi's Not-Dead Father Who's Still Not Good At Being A Father But He Tries Okay. He trusts Toshi to make the best decisions that he can, and wants him to go far.
- Good Standing
- ♦ Achujim Urumet - Achujim's a good ol' boy, and if Tuva could have a kid at all, he'd absolutely want them to be like Achujim. ...Minus how randy Achujim is. Kid needs to relax.
- ♦ Doloki Oronir - Doloki's a weird sort of girl, but Tuva definitely likes her all the same; she doesn't take any shit, and isn't afraid to provide a bit of friendly ribbing.
- ♦ Uruk Oronir - Why the fuck isn't he like Uruk, Uruk is fuckin' rad as hell. Uruk is famous and admirable and strong and wise, and Tuva respects and trusts him very fuckin' much. (Also he's not sure whether he wants to be him or do him. Help.)
- ♦ V'danya Tykha - She's smart, and wise, and seems to have her shit together; therefore, she is a Good Girl And Tuva Supports Her.
- ♦ Everyone serving Toshi as a vassal - They're automatically his colleagues, and he'll do his best to help them out and stand by them where they need. Even if he's a jokey, disrespectful old fuck, he likes them all very much thus far.

- ↓ Fugetsu Meiken - Motherfucker!!! What's he got that Tuva doesn't that Banan likes so much...
- ↓ Ridah'li Vhosso - Although he started out looking to Ridah'li for help with an acquaintance's conundrum, it quickly became apparent that the mage was way too free with his magic and generally off-putting, and Tuva would prefer to not have Ridah'li anywhere near the people he cares about.
