James Reilly
Ghost
As little concerned as much of Eorzea is with record-keeping, by all accounts, James Reilly simply did not exist prior to the events leading up to the Calamity. Stories told shortly after the Calamity speak of a man with a skull for a face who wielded arms that made the Garlean weapons look like toys, but those are hardly the strangest tales to be told by drunks.
All that can be said for certain is that the man who calls himself James Reilly began to frequent the Drowning Wench close to a year after the Calamity, speaking in an accent similar to, yet still distinct from, the natives of Limsa Lominsa. When asked of his origins, he would only answer that his home was destroyed in the Calamity, and when asked of his occupation, he would reply with a smirk that he does freelance ambassadorial work for the Maelstrom, citing his skill at "reaching out and touching people."
Where he goes and what he does when he is not in the Drowning Wench are difficult to determine, as he possesses an uncanny talent for disappearing in a crowd and making himself difficult to track. He is known to carry a pistol--albeit an unusual-looking one--and so presumably must practice his marksmanship somewhere.
Recently he has been seen in the company of a highly-energetic Doman refugee with green hair who carries a sword bigger than she is. He disappeared for a time during the dravanian attempt to invade Ishgard, so it can be safely presumed he went to aid in the defense of the city.
Usually Found: La Noscea
IC Locations: The Drowning Wench, anywhere he's seen wearing the shades pictured above
Potential Plot Hooks/Persons That May Have Interest: Drowning Wench patrons, Maelstrom military personnel, gun enthusiasts
OOC Notes: Ghost is not the character of the same name from the Modern Warfare series of games come crashing into Eorzea. He is an original character heavily inspired by that character come crashing into Eorzea from the world of Final Fantasy VIII. This is never brought up in character as he refuses to discuss (truthfully) where he is from, and does not use his higher-tech firearms except in extreme emergencies (the Steps of Faith being one such emergency). To reiterate, yes he blows apart lore, but it is not known to anyone ICly as he never talks about it.
