I'ason Silverlight

Upon first meeting, I’ason is friendly, hopeful, affectionate, timid, submissive and, for the most part, a sweet ball of fluff. He is meek and a people-pleaser through and through. While wrestling with the belief that he is ‘weak, needy, and useless’ - due in part to his unwillingness to engage in combat and his gross dependence on others to both protect and make decisions for him - I’ason is actually cleverer and more resourceful than for what he gives himself credit. Mercurial and prone to self-destructive anxiety and depression, the Sagoliian is nevertheless big-hearted - wanting very much to believe in ‘love conquers all.’ A romantic, he is in love with the idea of love, and admires people who have the courage and conviction to risk self for others. He empathizes greatly with people who are in pain and will want to do something to help in the suffering of others, however limited his power may be.He's not all "aw what a nice boy" good, though. He can hold grudges and be pettily vindictive. He'll engage in arguments, though once it starts seeming it'll get physical, he'd be quick to back down. His mercurial moods can also be exhausting to manage. He's an open book, but also intensely private at the same time.

HOOKS- Gossip and who's-dating-whom. He's been scolded before, but he can't help it.- Hearing other people's stories. He loves vicariously living through other people by listening to their tales of both triumph and woe.- People pleaser. Ask him (or tell him) to do anything, especially assertively, and he'll likely do it.- Refugee in Ul'dah in the past and thus typically prefers not to venture into Ul'dah. PM for more info.- He was a denizen of the Sagolii - desert and tribal life - particularly dance - are things he can bond over!- Cooking and yummy food! He's always eager to learn more things to make so he can feed people and make them happy.- He works hard so he can be a lazyshit. Fashion and other luxuries make him go +-+- He's a bit of an Ishgardophile- Honestly, he's easy to interact with, if not a bit shy at first.

WRITING SAMPLESWhy Fight? - A glance into I'ason's internal state shortly after the dissolution of the 81st.Blood, Sand, and Stars - This kibby didn't handle a break-up well.Leve it to the Dark Knight - One of I'ason's first leves, taken after meeting Dacian (one of my alts) for the first time.Consider the Future - Shortly after I'kaya had been reunited with I'ason, he had to both undergo transition from being an alpha-tia to depending on Ason while also trying to be kind about his brother's lover at the time.

IC INVENTORY- Reliably with many pouches or bags at his belt and at least one typically carrying a snack he can share- Almost always with his hunting bow or his astrometer, if not both- A blue-aether magitek ring gifted to him by Senelle- Not on his person, but in his workspace is a stuffed Kojin gifted to him by Naohiro.

If an aspect of RP makes you uncomfortable in a scene we're playing, please send me a /tell, letting me know. Communication is very important, more important than potentially keeping immersion.I will not entertain drama llamas. Full stop. I'm old and moldy and do not have time to deal with problem-escalations during my happyrelax funtimes.Speaking of old and moldy, yes, I'm 40+, have a full time job, and help caretake for an older individual. I understand life can get in the way, so I ask for the same consideration.

PERSONAL RP LIMITS
I will play mature content and themes (violence, sexuality, drug / alcohol use) as long as they're logical in a plot-driven encounter. Coarse and excessive language. Temporary injury and incapacitation. Temporary imprisonment.PM me before initiating a walk-up encounter, or I might panic and hope you think I'm afk and leave. I have strong Stranger Danger.Ask about long-term and/or permanent injury and disfigurement. Long-term captivity or imprisonment.I won't play permanent character death, anything mature-themed with players under 20. Nothing against players who may be more mature than their age; it's more a personal thing for me, since I work with young'uns up to age 19.CONTACT

He then wandered about on his own, ending up a refugee of Ul’dah. There, he had the misfortune of learning first-hand of the manipulative ugliness that lived in the power of those with gil. At the same time, however, he learned of the luxuries the city and civilization offered, and he decided he quite liked things like feather beds, fine foods, and stylish clothes.

The group was uncertain of the Sagoliian Seeker at first, but eventually opted to let him follow them and learn the ways of Shroud hunting, as he seemed teachable. I’ason lasted a few moons with these friends but, ultimately, due to the frequent rain and gloom in the Shroud, opted to keep moving on - though this time with the idea that he could hunt and sell the game for gil so he could obtain other necessities.

I'KAYA TIA, Elder BrotherI'kaya is I'ason's older brother who watched over and protected I'ason as a kit - practically as a substitute parent - and is about as similar to I'ason as steel is to water. Yet, as different as they are from the other, the brothers love each other dearly. Once separated for long cycles after their escape from the Sagolii, they currently live their new lives as brothers do - driving each other crazy. Deeper, I'ason is keenly aware of I'kaya's tendency to bear all alone and without complaint, and openly fights with the fiercely stalwart and stubbornly proud miqo'te to allow him to care for him.

I'MHARYUS NUNH, Sire (deceased)I'mharyus, upon first meeting, may not have seemed as expected as a nunh. He came across as childish, bubbleheaded, and irresponsible, but behind all that was a caring father who loved his tribe dearly. Ever did he tend to the needs of his people with care and consideration - a quality that stood out to the huntresses who put him in his position, and earned him great love from his kits. He also possessed a pragmatism and unusually political wit about him that set him apart and made him respected despite his brash lust for life. He was tragically killed during an Amalj'aa assault when he was lured out by a Tempered kit, and his loss came as a devastating blow to the morale of the Ee.

I'GHRANE NHENTA, Dam (deceased)I'ghrane was one of the fiercest warriors of the Ee, well-respected for her prowess on the battlefield. Countless Amalj'aa had fallen to the tiny miqo'te's axe, and she commanded fear in her foes. As a mother, however, she found herself flailing. Lacking no love for her kits, the woman simply had no talent to nurture. Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of both her sons, she did her best with her beloved I'mharyus and her tribe sisters supporting her. Ever drawn to battle, however, I'ghrane ultimately proved her motherhood by setting out to lead a last stand against the Amalj'aa after I'mharyus was slain. She never returned and only cycles later was found by Senelle to be in the custody of the Brotherhood of Ash - Tempered - and had to be laid to rest.

LIEUTENANT SENELLE SILVERLIGHT, Rhohi / Wife / MateSenelle began her connection with I'ason as a mentor and mother figure. She had scraped him out of the gutter more than once during his dark spirals, helped with his literacy, and, with her wisdom and support, taught him to grow his definition of 'home.' While he regarded her as a woman with a strong core, he had sometimes sensed a loneliness about her to which he related. As such, he persistently tried his best to actively keep her in his life, ultimately folding her into his family - his tribe. Through all they have endured together by and for the other, they are bound now in ways no words can adequately describe. He loves her dearly and it would take another Calamity before he would be separated from her.
