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 with herself and as a token to this promise, she named her first son as a symbol of that dream.Fannar's family was a small tribe that ventured out of the steppe traveling far and long to the mountain's snowy depts of the Coerthas. The mother of this tribe had her first son during a harsh snowstorm and named him Fannar. The tribe has undergone nothing, but good fortune in their settlement and built their tribe, with other families, from the ground up. Fannar's father decided after arriving to the Coethas, they would take on the surname “Reykholt” as a start of a new beginning for their growing community.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"
The Iron Suns
"The Iron Suns" is an organization of talented crafters and gatherers who reside in Ul'dah. Funding is provided to members for their personal business' and provided a wide range of connections to wealthy patrons and commissioners.
Important:
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.
Work-a-holic
Fannar is often lost in his work at the workshop. Need armor? Weapons? Or perhaps you need housing repairs? How could Fannar say no?
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".
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
My friends and family call me Jasmine, but you can call me Hex or Fannar!Yeah, behind the buff-chested gecko is a bisexual female (she/her) anime-junkie who headbangs to techno, metal, and rock music. Seriously. Don't get me started on manga's and anime's-- I could literally go on for hours..
But on my calm days, Im sipping wine, listening to jazz and probably getting high & shit-talking my friends ♥Since it has been asked a couple of times, yes, I am dating Riven Reykholt in real life. We've known each other for over a decade, but been dating going on four years now.I live in Indiana and I've been roleplaying since I was eleven or twelve years old from Habbohotel, Gaiaonline, IMVU, Forums, Discord, and now FFXIV. All in that order. I'm a full-time worker & mother. So yeah, I'm a busy person, but I'm always making time for roleplay.Sleep? What's that...I'm over-all a nice person and don't turn a blind eye on anyone if they are upset or have any concerns. If I offended you, please let me know! I promise I dont bite, lol. I also don't hold grudges or animosity towards anyone. Trust me, I don't have the energy for it (lol). I have enough real-life bs going on-- probably like everyone else on this game ♥

✦ Roleplay Style: Third-person Literate.

It would be weird roleplaying with minors especially in the areas I hang out in in the roleplay world such as Fight clubs, Taverns, and other MRP-related areas that involve violence, alcohol, adult topics, adult content, etc. So shoo..✦ Do I ERP? Yes.
Will I ERP with you? Nope.I'm strictly looking for character development among other roleplayers who enjoy conflict of interest!
Want a rival? Frienemy? Friend? Foe?
Well what are you waiting for? Let's do it!Yes, I love roleplay drama, romance, comedic, and wholesome moments! But I'm a huge advocate against 'mixing' and 'meta-gaming'.. So please don't mix in-character with out-of-character interactions. We're adults, so please don't make things weird.. let's just have fun ♥By the way..
I'm an experienced role-player, but that does not mean I'm a professional in the Final Fantasy post-by-play world..Sometimes I tend to miss certain posts that may be directed at me, so just /tell me if I missed something important or just /tell me if you want to roleplay in advance.Final Fantasy is not exactly roleplay-friendly since the chatbox will auto-scroll, we cant tag people, and the textbox is restricted to a limited color-function. So I normally narrow my attention to posts with 'Fannar' or 'Reykholt' in them lol. So forgive me in advance! I promise Im not ignoring you. I'm just a derp ♥
