Character

Appearance

Yato is a young man with a young face that on occasion has led to him being mistaken for younger then he actually is often carrying a tired expression on his face and in his overall demeanor. He has a fragile build for the most part, only showing faint signs of muscle development. Yato's face, specifically his cheeks have a habit of becoming red be it from embarrassment or other means. Being doman his features make it apparent if looked at closely (that being said due to not being aware of being doman his aesthetic choices tend to stray from the normal doman aesthetic making it hard to tell sometimes except on the occasions that he does choose to wear attire befitting a more Othardian/Doman look) In the past his hair was black and was a bit more styled and kept, then due to an altercation with the garleans in Azys Lla a glamour he was not aware was placed on him was removed and his hair became white. Yato has gray eyes that arn't seen very much anymore, in the past he would always be seen with glasses but after some time in Othard and Gyr Abania he's now always seen with a blindfold/bandage/wrap looking accesory completely over it his eyes. Still able to see 100% the accessory appears to have magicks allowing him to clearly see in peace while to anyone else he might come across would just see him as him in a blindfold.

Aesthetic/Attire

Yato mainly leans towards darker colors, mostly black, his preference to work during the night rather then the day being part of that reason. He's usually seen with some sort of high-quality mage attire or student-esque outfits often bought from various merchants not easily accesable by haru, although she often brings him these articles of clothing but doesn't tell him where she acquires them. On occassion Yato will wear coatee/tabard -type tops or even ponchos, but most of the time those are left for casual outfits, when he doesn't wear much combat gear and is more pedestrian. Most of his clothing options tend to have some sort of tight/slim fit to them usually avoiding loose-baggy clothing Yato prefers his clothing to hug his body tightly to avoid accidents due to garment malfunctions. Apart from his generally dark themed garments the only other special note to his outfits is his knee-length black socks with a very hard to notice insignia sewn into them, although not usually visible unless his outfit exposes his legs it still a consistent clothing item in all his outfits.

Personality

Yato is a quiet young man with a stoic response to most situations although deep down he is a rather emotional individual who is actually quite awkward and shy often shown when directly confronted in conversation alone. Yato suffers from insomnia which results in his tendency to seem like he's constantly tired which often results in him complaning about anything he's doing (such as being ordered around too much or finding what he's doing tiring.) . his emotional tendencies also on occassion will cause him to act rashly or put himself in dangerous situations which leads to him getting hurt or making things harder for himself and/or those around him.

Companions

  • Bread - Bread is a chocobo yato has had with him since it was fairly young, the chocobo is fully capable of fighting and yato frequently trains with it eventho its used more for transportation purposes then fighting. ( but on the rare occassion that it is used for fighting it usually can hold its own against physical combatants.)
  • Hatchling(s) - Theres a baby chocobo hatchling Yato ran into on its own in the forelands that instantly grew attached to him, usually when Yatos not out and about in dangerous locations and is just casually in the city he'll let the hatchling come along with him, it usually always finds its way back to Yato regardless if they get seperated but whenever Yato does leave it and its not with him it usually has no problem sticking around Bread. During his travels yato has come across a number of hatchlings that for some reason have grown quite fond of him all of which he's reluctantly brought home
  • Allagan Node - An allagan node Yato with the help of haru had repaired he refers to it as "Pod" and it usually accompanies him when theres Magitek or Allagan related technology around. It contains all the records Yato has unearthed about the allag's aswell as other various knowledge yato has given it as well as very basic mundane knowledge i.e: Weather,Time,Airship Hours etc. (He's also made sure only specific voice recognition and codes can be used to meddle with it to avoid information he's placed in it to go in the wrong hands)
  • Otter - Yato was randomly gifted an Otter by Haru that immediately took a strange liking to Yato, it's a rather intelligent creature though it can't talk (though yato believes its squeaks to have specific tones to them, very specifically sarcastic tones) It ocassionally accompanies him when he's out and about in Othard, though it enjoys pulling pranks on Yato such as pulling his tail though overall it does seem to be loyal to the Miqote regardless its teasing.

Combat

General

Yato excells at combat due to his childhood training although he usually tends to avoid unecessary combat (mostly due to the fact that if he's in a situation where he might be required to fight its usually a situation where he's trying to lay low and not draw attention to himself i.e gathering information inside the main citys.) Regardless of Yato mainly choosing to avoid combat he's tailored himself to be fully capable of fighting if necessary often being able to hold his own against tanks and various other offensive classes although against physical classes he usually takes a more tactical approach due to his small frame and his combat being centered more on magic making him very vulnerable to strong physical attacks. Because of his origins Yato has always had a strong affinity towards any kind of magic (i.e His high aether concentrations plus his specific attunement to ice aspected crystals in his youth causing him to have a specific affinity for ice magicks ontop of his overall affinity for magic.) While making his way through Gyr Abania Haru taught Yato Red Magic claiming she picked it up from an older looking Miqote traveller some time ago. His proficiency at magic caused him to pick up the basics of red magic with fairly little trouble although it took a bit for him to grow accustomed to fighting with a sword.

He has some form of acrobatic combat prowess benefiting the swordplay used with red magic but also to compensate for times his magick is not available to him and/or for close-quarters combat(although his small frame doesn't allow him to take many hits) his high stamina and mana also allows him to keep up during prolonged fights but his physique causes him to fall behind if against an enemy who is more of a physical fighter and even more so if said enemy is much bigger than him be it by weight or muscle.

Other Abilities:

  • Runes/Glyphs- After studying old tomes he came across Yato learned how to weave his magic into special hieroglyphic characters or symbols allowing him to slightly enhance abilities on people and/or weapons, create barriers, and mark individuals to keep track of them.

Hobbies

Likes

  • Solitude - Yato Enjoy's having time away from people, it usually allows spending time obsessing over various allagan paraphernalia or looking into old allagan remains he can go out and study.
  • Animals - He has a really high affinity to animals, befriending them quite easily and often enjoying their company over other people.
  • Libraries - Yato is quite fond of libraries especially ones he hasnt been to because of the ocassional slim chance that he might find books or records relating to the allagans that he might not have seen yet.
  • Books - He has his own library set up in his apartment filled with books he's acquired on the allagans aswell as a couple novels and journals he's grown to enjoy too.
  • Forests - Often enjoying taking walks in them, Yato has a tendency to wander in forests quite often sometimes finding it relaxing enough to sleep in them.
  • Rain - Although not quite fond of the ocean or bodies of water (mostly due to his inability to swim), yato has a fondness for rain often standing in it or working in it resulting in him frequently getting sick.
  • Snow - Much like the rain, there isnt a clear reason for why Yatos affinity leans toward snow, but he's usually in a much happier mood in said weather.
  • Chocobos - No reason or explination for the obsession but Yato loves chocobos finding them adorable and often enjoying their company immensely.
  • Sleeping - Suffering from insomnia Yato is usually beyond relieved when he finally manages to fall asleep although those around him might not be very happy about it.

Dislikes

  • Large Crowds - Often feeling anxious around crowds of people along with not liking not having a clear view of his surroundings Yato tends to try to avoid them and socially public places unless they have quiet less-populated locations.
  • Heat - Yato is someone who favors cool weather and hates the heat. it usually keeps him in a bad mood (making alot of his visits in Ul'dah not very pleasant for him.)
  • Ul'dah - Bad Experiences have left a very sour taste in his mouth about ul'dah, he isn't ever very happy being there but he won't make such a big deal as to require leaving if he has a job there.
  • Lalafells - Finding them and their height strange Yato's met too many Lalafell who turned out to be nothing but trouble to the point where he has trouble trusting them.
  • Garleans - Finding them and their methods disgusting, that alongside a couple less than favorable encounters Yato shares no sympathy for them often heartlessly murdering them (including the ocassional passive ones) without hesitation.
  • Soot - Considering it the lesser mans black dye, Yato isn't very fond of Soot black dye often going for Jet Black for all his Black dye needs (although the reasoning behind his strange elitism in the colors not really having an explination.)
  • Blind Optimism - Easily gets upset at those who attempt to see the bright side in everything instead of looking at situations for what they are due to past encounters (and possibly do to seeing himself in them in the past).


Hobbies/Talents

  • White Magic (Conjurer) - Often used the fact that he was proficient with restorative magick as a justification for staying in support positions
  • Black Magic (Thaumaturge) - Mastering it with the help of Haru he tends to lean more towards the offensive magic at the moment
  • Interest/Obsessed in everything Allag (so much so that it has caused him to have multiple run-ins with garleans and various dangerous individuals/creatures)

Other

  • Bad at keeping allies up to date often "disappearing" without warning for short times
  • Horrible obsession with stuffed animals

Relationships

Friends

Kiku Tenai [PC][Friend]: A childhood friend of Yato's he would play with occasionally when he was brought along to visits in Ul'dah. Yato would often use this time to sneak off with the Miqo'te and they would play. After they grew they stopped seeing each other and Yato had almost forgotten about him until Yato stumbled into the Miqo'te in Limsa Lominsa one day and they rekindled their friendship, currently due to an unfortunate turn of events they have no connection to each other although Yato frequently uses Harus shady connections to ensure his friends safety and keep up to date with the Miqote's antics.

Haru Tokai [Alt][Family]: At first coming forth as a mysterious woman with alot of personal knowledge on Yato and those around him Haru eventually revlealed to yato the truth that she is actually related his mother making her his aunt (Although specifically Haru was Yato's mothers step-sister explaining her being an elezen and Yato being a Miqote). Haru, being the reason behind Yato currently even being alive shamelessly uses the fact to have him comply with her requests without hesitation. Although the woman very much hates Yatos existence she refuses to kill him because of her sister, blaming him for the choice leading to having to leave her behind. Haru honored her final request and saved the boy. Haru mainly tends to lean toward villainous paths adding onto Yato's unease. Often working with garleans, black market individuals and various other shady organizations, Haru's actions are hard to read making her a very hard individual to rely on shes sometimes even seen helping groups like the brass blades or the yellowjackets and other members of the Eorzean alliance. Haru Tokai is still an alias and she refuses to tell Yato her real name. She is currently training Yato in the same combat style his mother fought in.

Firuze Fall [NPC][Friend]: An old member of the Kingdom once ruled by Kiku's Family. Yato and Kiku stumbled onto him while being chased through Ul'dah once and brought him along with them. After Yato showed him a bit of healing magick and deciding to open up a school he disappeared without a trace, Yato believes someone had views that didn't support Firuze's school and had him killed.

Canelo Izo [PC][Friend]: A hunter that saved Yato when he recklessly overused his black magick injuring himself gravely, after being saved by him and nursing him back to health Yato and Canelo developed a friendship going as far as consistently keeping in touch via Linkpearl. Yato will occassionally call on him should he need the extra help and Canelo will call on him should he require the support of a healer or a mage, or if he has an unexpected accident, requires medical attention or especially if he stumbles onto anything allagan related. Although they do frequently "call" each other just to catch up and spend time together.

Kazumi Kamo [Alt][Family]: Yatos mother, an influential force allied with the Doman resistance Kazumi had to separate from Yato due to unfortunate circumstances very soon after his birth. Unbeknownst to Yato, Kazumi is actually a Doman Nobles Daughter making her a lost princess and also directly making Yato a Doman prince to a family long thought dead. After being told bits and pieces by Haru Yato wishes to meet her to figure out more about their family.

Koh'li Delanoes[PC][Friend]: A Highlander man who Yato met during his and kikus brief time in The Agents. Though hardly ever spending time together Yato still considers him a friend or at least an ally and is often glad when he hears talk of positive things befalling The Agents.

Etaan Bloodwell[PC][Ally]: A Roegadyn man Yato bumped into while running errands in Limsa Lominsa, though their interaction was very limted the Roegadyn was kind enough to allow Yato to use his apartment as a place to stay during his time in La noscea making Yato consider him an ally at least.

Tentsel Kha[PC][Ally]: An Au Ra man Yato briefly ran into during his and Kikus brief time in The Agents. On multiple occassions Yato as bumped into Tentsel in Cities and theyve had small talk and general discussions, Yato considers him an ally though possibly can see himself befriending the Aura man.

Enemies/Alliances

Garleans: -On multiple occasions Yato has been captured by the garleans and tortured and they've gotten in the way many times at Yatos attempts to explore Allagan ruins.

-In order to gain passage to the far east Haru devised a plan to use her neutral affiliation with the Garleans to sneak Yato aboard and get him across the ocean to Othard. Due to the specifics for how Yato managed to avoid attention being drawn to him he on occassion has been forced to do dirty work for the Garleans in the past.

Uldah (Immortal Flames): Although not necessarily enemies with the city itself Yato never feels safe in Ul'dah nor does he feel safe around Immortal Flame soldiers after an incident where Immortal Flame soldiers were payed off to attempt to kill him. He often insults them and doesn't trust/like people affiliated with the Ul'dahn Hierarchy and such, that alongside his hatred of hot climates and strong sunlight make any time Yato spends in Ul'dah a horrid time for himself.

Ishgard (Knights): Yato is well aware that his interests in exploring Dravania and the surrounding areas around Ishgard have made him somewhat of a target for claims of being a heretic nonetheless he doesn't let the Knights in Ishgard intimidate him and continues his exploring occasionally running into a few corrupt Temple Knights trying to set him up/kill him.

Othard (Sekiseigumi): Though having no proof the Sekiseigumi don't trust Yato, nor Haru do to their problematic questioning and prying and on ocassion a few overzealous individuals in the Skiseigumi have attempted to blame Yato for certain crimes tho all accusations have come out with Yato being considered innocent. Such incidents have caused Yato to be wary around them fully aware that they are possibly waiting for him to mess up so they can trap him.

Gyr Abania (Ala Mihgan Resistance): Yato and the Resistance are on pretty indifferent stances, they neither like nor hate each other. Haru's offered up Yatos aid when needed thus them considering them allys though their shady connections landing with the garleans have made the Resistance keep Yato at arms length.
