Personality
Despite the resting scowl on Fannar’s face, people would immediately learn that the firesmith has a rather calm attitude and presence of mind when it comes to business. In his free time, the xaela is less stoic and quite playful, if not comical. Fannar's hobbies revolve around exploration and crafting.When it comes to people outside of Fannar's circle, he can be rather brash with his words. But once he holds conversations with a familiar face, he tends to lighten up and can be quite caring-- or for a lack for words, the 'lazy dad' that aims to please.

BEHIND THE NAME
Fannar means “Snow drift” and originated in Iceland.
Fannar’s mother was told stories, in the steppe, of how cold and beautiful, the weather known as 'snow' was. It was always her dream to travel and see snow fall for herself. As a token to this promise, she named her first son as a symbol of that dream.THE TRIBE
Fannar's family was a branched from the 'Orl' tribe known as the 'Khol'. A small tribe that ventured out of the steppe years ago and with time, their bodies has adapted to the mountain's snowy depts of the Coerthas. Their bodies were capable of generating heat, so this made hunting and traveling easy for the Khol tribe. Fannar's biological mother married into this tribe. Successfully providing her son with a total of two younger sisters and a younger brother. The tribe has undergone nothing but good fortune in their travels and tried not to stay in one place for too long. However, during one of their temporary settlements, their tribe was delivered a tragedy against the Ishgardians.SLAVERY
Years after settling in the Coethas, a grave tragedy had befallen the Reykholt family. It was the during the dragon's war where Fannar was unconscious and picked off a drifting wood plank lost at sea. He would have been stranded and standing before death if it wasn't for the Stormcry finding the young Xaela, but this did not mean Fannar has found salvation among the pirates.A few crew members would agree and describe the child a savage and untrustworthy; caught red handed attempting to slit the throat of another crewmate if eyes were off the child a second longer. They learned to not underestimate Fannar's size and condition after the first man he made an example of. Of course, there was more to that story that the au'ra could not put into their foreign language. The lack in their communication only hindered Fannar to be caged and slaved the majority of his capture. The Stormcry's captain finally came to a bore and wanted to rid their ship of Fannar, but not without making a pretty penny off the brat. Two crewmates were chosen to act as merchants on the coast and sale the boy off. Docking the caged child on a boat and beaching western Thanalan before traveling into the city of Ul'dah.Some took interest in the privately auctioned Xaela, but were quickly taken back seeing the child wouldnt prove useful for their personal needs. It came at no surprise since this was not the first time the sketchy merchants have ventured their streets on shady business. There was enough commotion to reach a local male roegadyn. What was suppose to be a quick visit to pick up shipped goods, piqued his curiosity of the locals speaking of a scaled child being auctioned off in the area.After investigation, the roegadyn found the location of the shady merchants trafficking. The rogadyn took note of the child's poor condition; bruises and streaks of dark-gray highlighting his ravenous and unruly, black hair. Sure signs that the boy has undergone severe stress, and physically meek for his size and age. After questioning the price, Fannar was bought off the merchants. Forever being rid of the pirates from that day going forward.Fannar's life, growing up, proved to be quite laborious. For a foreigner, Fannar was quite adaptive and easy to cultivated through the unfamiliar culture. His master, Gethan of the Ironsun, took Fannar in. Teaching him the ways of smelting and smithing by putting Fannar's improving strength to good use and in exchanged promised food, education, and a home to call his own. Bulking the xaela's body side through food and exercise to nurse him back to health and putting him to good use within the organization. Despite being labeled as a slave, the xaela found purpose in his new family of roegadyns.

Hooks

"The Firesmith of the Iron Sun"

Workshop
"The Iron Suns" was the previous name of his adopted father's workshop that he has rebranded into "Devine Sights". His business revolves around black smithing, gold smithing, and advocates a thorough analysis of gems and crystals upon request. His business is fully funded by the Order of Nald'thal and most of his services are sponsered by the Garlond Ironworks.
He is often tasked to travel and arrange trades and connect deals in other countries for these affiliations as a general PR agent.

Servant of the Four lords
Fannar is a follower of the vermilion bird, Suzaku, of the south. The two have undergone trials and task with one another that he is often called by the goddess to tend to their shrine or he uses the hell's lid for personal use.

Shiny Rocks & Dirty Ore
Fannar has always been a traveler of the star. You can get his attention if you have questions about ores, gems, and crystals. After all, he has a steady hand for lapidary. And pretty knowledgeable in the study of aether attuned crystals. Which brings the topic of his personal shop "Divine Sights".

Scrapyards & Junkyards
Fannar is guilty in collecting scraps and trickets to craft devices that have a 20% chance of exploding.. ☺
These devices can vary from motor mobiles, rockets, weapons, and robots. His knowledge in technology revolves around the same as Garlond Ironworks. He is not entirely familiar with Alexandria and Solution 9
technology (yet).

Gambling Habbits
Fannar's favorite activities has always been the casinos and bar-hopping. He has only recently been getting himself involved in fight clubs, but nothing can beat the stifling lifestyle of throwing gil and taking a risk! But no worries; Fannar is no addict. He's very handy with managing his gil.

Venues/Entertainments
In his free time, Fannar is probably bar hoping, attending musical concerts, fight clubs, or enjoying a peaceful meal at an eatery. He loves recommendations for new taverns, lounges, etc. You should introduce your venue to him.

Hot & Spicey for the Soul
Another way to get Fannar's attention is through food. Despite being a fire-breather, the xaela is easily swooned by hot and spicey meals. The hotter, the better! His favorite beverage is whiskey mixed with cinnamon. Preferable neat, since ice tends to melt faster than normal for him.

Healer & Mender
As an adventurer, the pyromancer intertwined his flames in the healing arts. So he's capable of providing his company peek condition armor and weaponry while keeping them alive. If may need, the pyromancer is skilled in other areas of damage-per-second classes.

The Woman Behind the Gator

You can call me Jas/Jaz/Hex
Yes, I'm a female in real life and I have no preference between roleplaying between male and female characters. I'm open to roleplaying on discord or FFXIV but not all of my characters are available. Just ask!

Central Timezone
Im normally open to roleplay week nights after 7PM. Just send me a message on Discord if you wanna plan something out between our characters.

Mutiple Characters
I currently own a total of four in-game characters and one discord-created character for FFXIV. Be mindful, that my characters may not know each other or know much about each other. I like to spread out my options to cover a wide range of interests for myself and others who wish to create something.

No Meta-Gaming
Dont mix out of character context and conversation as roleplay. Just how I share just about enough details about my characters on the card, that doesn't mean every protagonist and antagonist knows my character. If you want to get involved with my character(s) on a wholesome or dark spectrum, just let me know and we can work something out.

Mare Code
Just send me a tell so we can exchange codes. Most of my alt-character's look nothing like what you're probably seeing in vanilla.

Mature Roleplay Content
Yes, I'm a female in real life and I have no preference between roleplaying between male and female characters. I'm open to roleplaying on discord or FFXIV but not all of my characters are available. Just ask!

Fannar Reykholt (Zalera), Sahil Ravi (Zalera), P'riya Daisho (Zalera), P'ierro Tia (Siren & Mateus).

About the Warrior of Light
In my lore, the WoL is a cannon character not played by another person or any of my characters. Long story short, I try to stay away from such a high-minded character unless you wish to work something out with my characters. Just give me a heads up.

Dont mix between real life and roleplay
Lets be mature and understand that whatever is said or done in-character has nothing to do with me in real life. If I offend you, I would hope you come to me about it and not bottle it up.

Roleplay Style
I'm normally posting out paragraphs for anyone roleplaying with me, but I have a life in real life, and may get pulled/distracted by family and or friends. So bare with me. Especially if there's a post order.
