At a Glance

Eyes: His eyes are particularly striking and unusual, often lined in deep reds and blacks to make the luminous gold stand out even more.Face Markings: He has miqo'te markings near his eyes.Hair: His hair is often a snowy controlled chaos of waves and curls, and he seems to be the only one able to really tame it. Usually.Tail: He has a little, fluffy, wiggly bunny tail.Claws: Each finger is tipped with a dark, wicked claw. How mindful he is of them depends on the person and how he's feeling about them at the moment.Peets!: His feet, lower legs, and thighs have soft fur all over, and his feet are much longer than most, are more akin to paws, and are tipped with claws. Because of their odd length, he's not often seen wearing any other footwear besides heels to help him balance and walk properly.Decorations and Jewelry: He's almost always wearing something sparkly or jingly, though the quantity entirely depends on his occupation of the moment. He's at his gaudiest when dancing, adorned with gold body chains, bracelets, anklets, rings, earrings, and glittering gems on chains that all catch the sunlight; he has to attract attention somehow! Otherwise, he stays quite tasteful, limiting to rings, a bracelet, and sometimes earrings.

Hooks

Ul’dahn Regular: A common face in and around the city, most of N’vhun’s personal work happens within its walls and, as such, his name is relatively well known. For better or for worse. Maybe you’ve heard some of the whispers...?Wanderer: While a good amount of his personal work is done out of Ul’dah, N’vhun is quite well traveled and will sometimes show up in the most unexpected places. Maybe you’ve seen this particular wanderer between city-states, or perhaps somewhere quite out of the way?Oh, What a Flirt: Find N’vhun attractive? Let him know! He’ll even join on in and give it right back to you under the right circumstances!Seeker Name?: Yes, he’s quite aware that his name does not, in fact, match his appearance aside from the peculiar miqo’te markings around his eyes. Curious? Go ahead and ask about it!Evening Companion: When the sun has dipped low and all songs are sung for the night, N’vhun is on the clock. Want to get to know him a little better and spend some quality time together? Or perhaps you’re just looking for some company for the night? N’vhun is happy to listen to your woes and occupy everything from your mind to your hands... For the right price, that is.*Open!: Wanna try something out that's not listed here? Let me know! I'm a-okay with bouncing a few ideas around with you!

* No OOC gil will be expected for an IC interaction!

Bonds

R'hoddy Tia: R’hoddy… bit his foot once. And now they’re besties. R’hoddy single-handedly brings down N’vhun’s IQ level, and the two enter Real Dumbass Hours™ when together in which there’s only a single braincell they bounce between each other. So yeah, you could say they’re close.

Joules Roscoe: Truly, the thorn in his side (affectionate?). Their relationship is starting on the mend after a rocky patch and plenty of tension both past and present, but if anything, N’vhun is determined to stay in the hyur’s life as a friend first and foremost.

Abacus Glitchtrigger: The man who calls the shots and N’vhun’s current employer. He holds a healthy respect for the man despite disagreeing with… a lot of the things he does, and he’s not afraid to bitch about him because of it. But he trusts in one absolute thing: Abacus will get the job done.

Sloane Laisren: He would sell Sloane to the Hells for a single corn chip. There is no love lost between them, though circumstances have now seen them working under the same man, and the game of “out of sight, out of mind” is coming to an end. N’vhun takes every opportunity to voice his disdain over this.

Liam Abernathy: A love found, and a love put down due to circumstances out of the control of either of them. The closest thing to It’s Complicated™ he will ever have in life, and a source of light and life in N’vhun’s days, there is little he wouldn’t do for the man.

Myym'sae Tayuun: Somewhat of a kindred spirit and occasional wine buddy, N’vhun and Myym’sae got on like a house on fire. Frequently taking digs and bitching at each other for fun, anyone on the outside may assume bad blood, but it’s really just how they show affection. Usually.

OOC

Hi there! I'm NV (25+ // they/them) and I've been playing FFXIV since 2017, and actively roleplaying in it since about 2020. If you happen to see me ingame, please don't be afraid to say hello ♡I love to RP and have been doing such for quite a long time now, and I'm always open to new connections and meeting new people and characters! I can do both ingame RP and RP via Discord; just ask and we can exchange information!However, I can be a little shy to approach, but I promise I'm more afraid of you than you are of me; I don't bite! Never be afraid to get in touch with me and see about setting up a scene!

Time Zone: EST // I'm usually available during the day most days, or most evenings past 7pm

Mare? Yes, upon request I'd be happy to exchange codes ♡
Discord? Yes, upon request! ♡Keep in mind: I will only exchange mare information and similar things in a non-ingame environment. Just in case!

I am very particular about separating IC and OOC, and I ask respectfully that all my partners do the same. I am not N'vhun, and N'vhun is not me. He can be bitchy, overly flirty, occasionally cold, dodgy, difficult, etc. If something he does or says strikes you as odd or too much, please do not hesitate to talk with me OOC to make sure we're still on course. Communication is very, very important to me!N'vhun is an adult character who will deal with and indulge in likewise themes and antics. He smokes, he drinks, he swears, and he indulges his own desires. Because of this, I will only RP with people and characters who are 21+. Please don't lie to me just to interact with N'vhun.I am very flexible with lore and canon, and use them as guidelines more often than strict rules. If this bothers you, I may not be the right RP partner for you.As mentioned before, communication is very important to me, so if you want to do a storyline or interaction that could be considered dicey or something not just done on a whim or casually, please talk with me about it!I will not participate in anything underage or nonconsensual or that involves dubious consent. If I or N'vhun do not give you an explicit yes, it's not happening, and if you try to keep going I will stop the scene altogether and leave. Please respect this.My character is an LGBT+ adult, and so am I. I have no love or tolerance for those who cannot or will not respect me or my character. If this bothers you, I may not be the right RP partner for you.N’vhun is, in fact, a sex worker and evening companion. What does this mean? It means he accepts money in exchange for sexual favors, among other things, and that’s it. What it doesn’t mean is that he or I owe you anything of that manner, including ERP. He has the right to refuse service, and just because it’s his job does not mean he is obligated to anything. And I as his player have the right to refuse if I simply do not feel like RPing that. Please respect this or I will use those rights to end a scene and walk away.10000% miss me with any racist fanon, your own or otherwise. I'm not interested in harmful stereotypes and indigenous caricatures. This includes but is not limited to 'feral' and 'caveman' depictions of characters. They are not cute or funny. Yes, I really have to put this here. Big fucking yikes.
