"Dance Beneath The Sparks Of Combat" Gender Male Race Miqo'te Clan Keeper of the Moon Citizenship Unknown Age 26 Deity Rhalgr, the Destroyer Orientation Straight Marital Status Single Occupation Mercenary/Sellsword Nameday 6th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon Verrik Ebonclaw, better known as Duskwalker or far less commonly as Kirion, was born on the 6th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon. A man of renowned martial talent, this Keeper often sets himself to seeking new challenges and endeavors... provided they succeed in keeping his interest. Most often found residing outside major cities, around outposts or places of frequent conflict. Political indifference sets Verrik aside from most of Eorzea, choosing to serve what's best for him, rather than the societies around him. Your Character's Inventory Last updated: Mar 7th, 2016 - Almost always found on his person is an intricate silver dagger, the sheathe embedded with fine jewels. Those who see the dagger drawn will undoubtedly bear witness to a pair of serpents etched into the flat sides of the blade. Height: 5 fulms 9 ilms Weight: 170 ponz Complexion:  Peach toned, unblemished. Hair:  Raven with crimson highlights. Eyes:  Crimson Face:  Sculpted, near flawless features accent the Keeper's youth with only two scars marring his features. The first, and most notable is a long scar from hairline to cheek over his right eye while the other, a cross-cut scar accents the jawline of his left cheek. Beyond these scars, Verrik appears in near flawless form from the neck up, with round, piercing red eyes every fixed on those who wander to close. Physique:  Despite his race and the typical lean builds of the Miqo'te, this Keeper strives for physical perfection. Whereas most Miqo'te often bear enough sculpt to show they do, in fact, have muscle, Verrik has taken his workouts to another level. Though still appropriate in frame, seeing this male in less than full clothing would expose near perfect physique. Chiseled, toned and built, every muscle that could detail his prowess would be unmistakable. (Photo will be delivered soon!) Voice:  Though still young in tone, the Keeper's voice carries a traveled but subtle rasp, ever accenting subtle purrs, growls of agitation or harsher tones when pushed to irritation. First Meetings/New Relationships: : Take heed when dealing with this particular Keeper, as the life he's lead sets the man to brazen, often crass behavior. He'll not mind his tongue, even if he does mind the words that fall from it to at least some degree. Companions/Family: : Those that find themselves lucky enough to become... important to Verrik can count on a fierce, unabashed loyalty--the Keeper ever willing to leap into the fire. And yet... none thus far have counted themselves lucky enough to be among such a list. Flaws ■ Hubris ■ Arrogant ■ Crass Fears ■ Moogles. He simply cannot stand them. ■ Large crowds in small spaces ■ Talents ■ Hand to Hand combat ■ Weaponry ■ Subterfuge Quirks ■ Plays with his knife when uncomfortable ■ ■ Preferences Hobbies ■ Exercise ■ Archery ■ Swimming Likes ■ Sparring ■ Being challenged ■ Dislikes ■ Being put on the spot. ■ Being without a weapon. ■ Moogles!!! Favorites ■ Favorite Color: Red. ■ Favorite Food: Steaks ■ Favorite Drink: Whiskies/Anything harsh ■ Favorite Scent: N/A ■ Favorite Place: Any Beach Combat/Sparring: When set in a combat situation, one would be hard pressed to ever see this man without a wicked grin. The rush, the exhilaration, the sheer... ecstasy of combat puts the man into a near primal state. A word of caution to those who would seek to spar, as this one does not hold back. Weapons Always with dagger on hand, Verrik's other weapons of choice are a one-handed saber and bow--the bow being a personal favorite and by far best proficiency. Magic Little is known of Verrik's Aetheric ability, public knowledge seems kept to a minimum... Or perhaps no one has survived when provoking this side of the Keeper. Who's to know? Crafting Weaponcraft and Armorcraft are among Verrik's sole practices when it comes to craft. Any concoctions such as potions or poisons are nearly always acquired from an acquaintance. Birth and childhood (0-10) Some would say that living one's entire life under the fire of combat is impossible, or immoral. Most would be correct. However, Verrik is not such individual. From the time he could successfully wield a bow and arrow, the Keeper was taught to fight, to hunt, to kill--his parents determined to see their only child a capable and effective soldier. As he grew, so did his love for combat and weapons, eventually evolving to man who quite simply lives for the challenge. Teen Years Later years saw Verrik to personal sparring matches with his parents, often in a two versus one style that had him out-matched and out-numbered. Beyond the life of training and combat, this young Keeper set himself to the waters as often as possible. For days at a time, Verrik would disappear to the islands around La Noscea, escaping civilization while giving wounds and injuries time to mend. It was during his early teens, however, that Verrik obtained his first kill--a Roegadyn pirate who saw fit to sneak up on the young boy in Costa Del Sol with intended effort to steal his belongings. The fight itself left Verrik battered and broken, not found for nearly a day in an alcove along the shoreline. Adulthood Upon reaching adulthood, Verrik set out on his own to pursue a life of... fulfillment, chasing down beasts and men each a threat to him in some form another. Some encounters were of a primal, vicious nature, while others pushed Verrik to the limits of his social interaction... every act a drive to better his abilities. Nowadays the Keeper offers his services to any willing to pay, be it cash, favor, trinket or flesh. Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC! Some of these rumors may be untrue or greatly exaggerated. Common Rumors (Easily overheard) ■ "That Verrik, he once tricked an entire pirate crew into brawling amongst each other! Just for two measly bottles of wine..." ~Limsan Dockworker ■ "They say this "Duskwalker" picks people off as the sun's setting, always keeping himself in its glare." ~Ul'dahn Medic Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear) ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Person ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Person ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Person Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard) ■ "Did you hear about that V'akoh family? Word is... their only child murdered them in their sleep!" ~Gridanian Citizen PC Rumors (Rumors from the characters of other players) ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Name ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Name ■ "Insert rumor here." ~Name 💑 In a Relationship    ♥ Romantic Interest    ♥ Sexual Desire    ♥ Platonic Love     ♥ Family     ● Good Standing     ● Neutral     ● Poor Standing     ☠ Deceased ♥ ♥ Skratti Bowens: Chance encounters came one after another with this interesting... unique Miqo'te. Her quirkiness has proven more than a little entertaining and as a whole and served to keep him around more often. He's quite pleased with her being around and admits it's difficult to keep things from going sexual, but at least they're compatible! ♥ Sabrith Ebonclaw: While not direct family, the Ebonclaws have proven to be a... home away from home, so to speak, and Sabrith was one of those renowned generations. If anything, getting the chance to kick back and actually get to know her over a nice bottle of liquor might be fun! ● Lyahna (Last name unknown): This few-screws-loose little Miqo'te has an insane affinity for experimentation and Aether. She was introduced to him through a fellow Ebonclaw and has since come to Lyahna for all his scientific needs. Potions and poisons, magitech or artifact inquiries, you name it.
