My first character I made for this game and for RP was very rough. I tried to develop him as things went and he turned out OK it seemed but overall he was just not a very good character. And I remember my friend complaining about how agitating Roleplaying with him was. That character came and died a short life and now I have a new one and I want to work with the community to see if I can make some sense of him and make him a good character. I do not know much about the lore so forgive me if anything I come up with seems weird. And here is my story
My Character is Xefjord Kiromeda. I used a transista potion on my old character to make this one and say the name is merely a coincidence. But I have everyone call my Character Sparks. It was a spur of the moment name and I kind of like it. :3
He is a grew up in a noble Garlean family and had plenty of wealth to spend on his passion. Learning. I like to consider my character a detective of knowledge who wants to learn everything there is to know about everything. He is about 24 years old right now and he has spent every possible minute of his life researching something new or learning more about what he already knew. He trained in the ways of the Spear and Sword and has a fair knowledge on hand to hand combat. For a long time he lived peacefully and studied his heart out but soon subjects to study became a bit harder to find. At one point in time he wanted to enhance himself to better allow his ability to study and improve his physical ability so he went to a group called Wytchwood and got bio-technologically enhanced. Getting a mix of nanotek in his blood to help his endurance and strength and more importantly his perception and reaction. On its own it does not do much but he can take pills to enhance the effects. Although sense it relys on power from aether if he enhances it and overloads with aether he could crash and become extremely weak.
Sparks started working with some sketchy groups on the backstreets to learn more about areas outside of the Garlean empire because his curiosity and thirst for knowledge controlled him. Upon learning more of a continent called Eorzea and of Aethers manipulation into magic Sparks wanted to know EVERYTHING about it. So Sparks underwent heavy research into hacking. He already had quite a bit of knowledge on Magitek engineering and alchemy from his previous schooling. Eventually Sparks hacked into Garlean systems and stole as much information as he could simply because he wanted to learn more. He learned of how corrupt the Garlean Empire was and began to despise it. The Garlean Empire was not too happy with him either. So he made his escape to Eorzea with the Garlean Empire after him and the information he stole. A few other company's in the Garlean empire are after him for information he stole as well. Some information including Wytchwood, ect.
My character finds himself on Eorzea totally amazed. They seem very primitive to him and he has a secret superiority complex but he is constantly trying to learn new things about the place and about magic. He is already attempting to integrate magic into his technology and experiments. He is overall a pretty friendly character but gets annoyed easily. Occasionally assassins try to get him but he keeps his identity secret just in case. Hence his nickname Sparks. So people do not know his real name.
How does my character sound to you guys and what are your guys suggestions/opinions for him?
