Yoxoh'sae Betwanhe
|
[edit]
Yoxoh'sae Betwanhe (Pronunciation: Yoch-so-say Bet-hwan-hey), Young and from a sheltered life in the Eastern section of the Black Shroud, Yoxoh'sae and his twin sister Jacie have only recently begun to travel Eorzea at the behest of their mother and a legend within their clan. Taking both the legend, his mother's desires and the clan's hope to heart, Yoxoh'sae bears a lot of pressure and worrying responsibility, all for a quest which may be little more than smoke and mirrors.
At 5'2", Yoxoh'sae isn't particularly tall and though there's still a chance he may grow taller as he matures a bit more, it won't likely be by much more than an ilm or so. His body is possessed of a lean musculature, typical of favoring agility over brute strength. His short cropped hair, as well as the fur on his ears and tail, are naturally an odd shade of grayish blue, with pinkish red highlights. He tends to wear a feathered clip in his hair, given to him by his mother. In an attempt to appear older and stronger like his father, Yoxoh'sae's grown out a little goatee of a beard on his chin and darkens around his eyelids with brown pigmentation, though his nervous disposition simply ruins any idea that he could be as old as he might look. Mostly hidden by the fall of hair over his face, his right eye is a pure snow white encircled by a very thin line of black. His left eye is a bright, sapphire shade of blue. His facial features are a bit stronger than those of his sister, favoring his father's appearance over his mother's with a strong jawline and cheekbones. Markings typical of Keepers can be found on his face.
Timid. Shy. Naive. Yoxoh'sae is a very shy and timid Miqo'te. With a twin sister who seemed to have gotten all of the sociability genes, Yoxoh'sae instead tends to get tightly wound and stutter when he speaks in social situations. He tends to stare at the ground instead of looking anyone in the eye, finding it terribly uncomfortable to do so with most others besides his family/clan members. Even with friends he finds this difficult. He's known to be very fidgety, often scuffing the ground with a boot, flicking his ears and tail and generally availed of small gestures that easily divulge his anxious state. His clan is extremely small and isolated, and as such, large crowds of people make him extremely uncomfortable and he's not adjusting to city life or social situations very well, though there's some who are trying to help him in that regard. He's very easy to tease into a flustered state. While he enjoys hunting for game and fish, his nervous disposition would make this seem an unlikely past-time, though it's a skill born of necessity for helping his family survive, and one he feels most comfortable doing so in the forests of the Shroud. In that regard, his hearing is extremely sensitive, and he prefers to close his eyes to focus better on the sounds around him while he tracks and moves through familiar territory - though this sensitivity is also a large part of why crowds bother him. It's too much noise. He hasn't adjusted to the more open plains of Thanalan and La Noscea yet. With meager skill with a spear, passed onto him by an elder brother, were he to get into an actual battle with another person, the chances are he would be easily overtaken as he lacks confidence and experience. While he feels protective of his sister and friends, he also rightly worries that he won't be able to protect them if need be due to his own nervous failings, despite being agile and strong for his age. He naively believes in the good of others, and while he has yet to experience anything bad from this, it is sure to sting him in the future.
This is a list of the items that Yoxoh'sae currently is keeping on THEIR person. Feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in the course of RP, such as pickpocketing, a search, etc. Last Updated: 4/4/2016.

Yoxoh'sae has only undergone a minimal amount of training with a spear, and has never had the experience of a real fight. Mostly, he has used his speak in hunting situations where it would be more appropriate, such as against bigger game such as hogs. Recently, Ragnorak Boyd gave him a few pointers on vital areas to strike at, but with his current training and disposition, the chances are slim he will be able to use them effectively should the need arise.
Here is a list of recent and/or notable fights, roleplay scenes, etc. that CHARACTER has been a part of. This list is by no means all inclusive, and serves more as a general reference as to what HE/SHE has been up to.
Even since before crossing over the frozen waters to Eorzea, the Betwanhe clan has struggled to maintain a steady population. Their troubles now, where their numbers are dwindling and more males are being born, to those who can even birth children, are said to have happened once before the clan came to Eorzea. The origin of their long held legend is rooted in these troubles and it is believed that when the population crisis became dire enough that a white eyed individual would be born who could find the solution to their ills. However, much in the tradition of spoken histories, many details about this legend and the troubles it sprung from have been lost over time or changed as they were spoken from one generation to the next. Having remained stubborn and unwilling to seek help from other Keeper clans, they have become overlooked and forgotten by the larger, more well known clans and maintain relations only with a few smaller clans. While this does not mean they are unrecorded, information about them may be more difficult to find due to their isolation. Due to their small size, they chose to settle in a hidden area somewhere near the Sylph lands, and have maintained respectful relations with the Sylph, though the newfound issues with primals have weakened these relations nearly to non-existence in recent times.
Alongside his twin sister, Yoxoh'sae only recently arrived in Ul'dah and has managed despite his nervous nature to make several friends. By some sort of luck he seems to have met only good people thus far, however, only time will tell if all of them are true friends or not.
These are mostly backstory-related relationships.
Listed here are the non-family characters, both PC and NPC, that Yoxoh'sae has interacted with enough or in such a way for him to form a real opinion about them. Please don't take personal offense if your character isn't listed here, or how the interaction or relationship is described. I may still be working on it. Last Update...4/4/2016 * An asterisks denotes that CHARACTER doesn't know the individual's true name.

Yoxoh'sae has three older brothers which are open to be taken as alts if anyone so desires. Please refer to above family relations for an idea of his relationship with them. Please send a tell in game if they interest you. If you encounter my character, please feel free to walk up and start RPing as appropriate to your own character's personality. I'm open to random stuff happening, so if you have an idea just toss it out there and we'll see how it goes.
I've been RPing for over a decade now, and I love the hobby. I tend to hang around Ul'dah and the Quicksand currently, but as RP dictates that may change.
Overall, I'm pretty chill as far as guidelines go. I don't have an extensive list of 'Do's or 'Don't's or things that I personally find triggering. So chances are, you won't offend me or make me uncomfortable unless you're just being really skeevy. Don't be skeevy and creepy okay? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
