synopsis

Finn can be summed up as cunning and cocksure; a mixture of a headstrong, laissez-faire view of life and values paired with an ambition that has been amplified by past grievances. He is bold, with a sharp tongue and an even sharper eye, whose morals lie on a very thin line that tends to sway heavily toward the more darker aspects of the underworld. Hubris and vengeance has forced his hand in many situations that most would find unforgivable, but though he has a hand in some parts of the black market, the viera is, at the end of the day, charismatic, proud and fiercely loyal to those he considers his closest friends.

hooks

the jackal

Some people familiar with piracy or have dabbled in the criminal underworld may have heard of a viera sky pirate who goes by the name of 'The Jackal' when conducting business as a smuggler. Captaining the crew of an airship called The Gambit, the Jackal smuggles any cargo from any client, both criminal or otherwise for the right amount of money.


mercenary mage

While smuggling may be the main source of Finn's income, he has since begun dabbling into matters of the arcane since acquiring his tattoos. Mentions of magical artifacts, ancient relics and sources of power will quickly gain his attention. He can also be employed for services pertaining to espionage and hitman work for targets that may be more difficult to get to without the help of a little magic.


Wanted

Due to his many run-ins with the law and the nature of his criminal work, it's only natural that Finn has amassed a significant bounty on his head. The bounty in particular may vary in reward depending on the city or region, however, there is no shortage of people that are out for the viera's head, bounty or no bounty.


the black mark

After a month of imprisonment, Finn has acquired a curse on the palm of his hand, black and cracked like the edges of a broken mirror. This mark acts like a beacon to monsters, ashkin and voidsent, drawing them to the rava like moths to the flame.


claws of arcane

Due to recent, harrowing circumstances, Finn has lost a physical arm and now manifests a new one in its stead; ethereal and powered by his stores of aether, he rarely keeps it hidden, drawing the attention of curious eyes. Perhaps your character is drawn to the aether he burns so quickly to maintain it, or have questions as to what happened.

connections

Lovers | Former Lovers | Family | Close Friends | Acquaintances | Business Partners | Enemies | Deceased

Forever a WIP as RP continues and needs to be updated.

Amaryllis Riva

◇ ⊗ | A former street rat turned smuggler, Amaryllis and Finn met for the first time when they were both 16 years old. Together, they turned to smuggling to make a profit, and made a remarkably effective pair. During a particularly risky smuggling run, however, Amaryllis took a bullet meant for Finn, and ultimately perished in his arms. Her death left him numb, and 4 years later, he has yet to enter into any new relationships.


Rand Andor

❖ ⊗ | A former Fist of Rhalgr and an infamous sky pirate who primarily sailed the skies between Gyr Abania and Dalmasca, Rand Andor found Finn when he was only four years old after commandeering a Garlean airship. He raised the viera child as his own, and as Finn grew older and more rebellious, Rand was ever a firm and often strict teacher and an incredibly skilled monk who forced the young Finn to think on his feet on more than one occasion. A mutiny and betrayal was the cause of his early demise.


Asher Murad

| Leader of the Reavers, a sky pirate crew known for their ambition and tendency to attack other sky pirates, Asher and Finn have a brutal history of betrayal, agony and seething hatred. Finn wants nothing more than to see the man dead, yet struggles to compete against the midlander's large interwoven network of resources and connections. Asher is cunning, manipulative and sadistic in a way that unsettles even the cruelest men on his crew.


Petya Bhaldurra

❖ ◉ | Finn encountered this young hyur woman when she approached him for a business proposition in Ul'dah. After some time spent with her, including some harrowing encounters, Finn has been metaphorically tossed into her family sphere with the markings he now carries. He has pledged himself to her cause and has since been focused solely on her safety.


Hyjr Rava

❖ ◐ | Something about this viera feels familiar to Finn, but he cannot quite place what it is. While he appreciates her combat prowess and expertise, he often gets irritated with her blunt and literal attitude. He cannot deny the fact that the Rava has offered him advice that he has found himself utilizing in his own relationships with other people.


Frey

◎◐ | A strange miqo'te the viera can't quite place just yet. While the cat is enigmatic and a damn good resource for information, Finn finds he can tell things to Frey he normally wouldn't dream of divulging.


Lehko'a Nhali

| A man Finn considers the closest thing to an older brother. Ko'a looked out for Finn and other youth in the streets of Ul'dah, and though the young rava might not have shown it then, Finn appreciates everything the keeper did for him, gruff demeanor or not. He was more than relieved to find out Ko'a was still alive after so many years apart.


C'vett Tia

| Forever annoying cat.


Tal Fenik

| A 'hunter' Finn has met on several occasions now, he has approached them with the prospect of a new hunt, hoping that the keeper will prove to be more useful than they appear.


Meridian Fennel

| A viera that enrages Finn on every occasion they happen to meet. He has a bone to pick, and he's looking forward to their rematch.


Ohrn'ra Kahlabolg

| Initially a keeper Finn was not intentionally intending on getting along with, the two have since grown more amicable after several meetings and a few punches and stitch-ups in-between. Finn has learned to tolerate the miqo'te's presence, although grudgingly, and he no longer reacts too aggressively when the latter asks questions.


Fey're Iva

◉◎ | The Rava had the pleasure of punching this Hannish woman in the face during their initial meeting, and while - at the time - Finn might have felt some satisfaction in doing so due to the insults that were thrown around, the smuggler had since apologized to her and ultimately found himself taking an interest in the fellow sky pirate. While he's not entirely sure how he feels about Fey're just yet, their various meetups since the knockout incident has led Finn to see a bit of himself in her, leading to the captain sometimes acting in ways that could seem uncharacteristic.


Cyra Sideris

◉ ◐ | The navigator of the Gambit, Finn considers Cyra both a comrade and someone he can rely on to cause unsuspected chaos. While both enjoy a modicum of rash, bold decision making and scathing diatribes, Finn does appreciate that Cyra will look out for his back and their crew should the need arise.


Vex Redain

◎ ◐ | A wench that both infuriates Finn and sustains his ever constant desire for gil, Vex has proven to be a pirate of the oceanic variety that the smuggler can tolerate solely because of her seemingly endless supply of money. The bargain he struck with her has left him feeling relatively sour, but at the end of the day, the reward has kept him coming back for more.


Eirah Basari

◎ ◐ | Scary tall woman.


Jeanne Castelle

◎ ◐ | A pompous, but undoubtedly stylish Ishgardian woman the captain had the pleasure of meeting a few times. Finn has yet to settle on what he thinks of her and the request she's made of him and his partner, but time will tell whether she will prove to be more useful to him than just an occasional amusing conversation.


Carmen Almast

| A woman the pirate initially considered an abrasive hag due to the circumstances of their meeting, a meetup in Kugane has changed the rava's views on the viera as he found they actually share quite a bit in common.
