Xha'li Moui
2.Where and when were you born?
On the 23[sup]rd[/sup]sun of the Second Astral Moon 1559 in a small Keeper settlement at the edge of the Black Shroud
3.Who are/were your parents?Â
My name is Xha'li, and I'm a Keeper from a tribe as I just said...Xha was my mother obviously. Don't know who my father was. Mom never seemed to like talking about him.
4.Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
Your eally don't know anything about Keepers do you? I have two older brothers Xha'to and Xha'a since you seem to know nothing about our naming traditions. Xha'to is my win brother, though he was actually born on the 22[sup]nd[/sup]a few minutes before midnight. Xha'a...I don't want to talk about.
5.Wheredo you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people.
For now I'm staying at the Drowned Wrench in Limsa Lolimsa while studying at the Arcanists guild.
6.What is your occupation?
Adventurer,and student in that order much to the chagrin of my instructors. Don't really see what their issue is I'm doing just as well as my classmates.
7.Write a full physical description of yourself. You might want to consider factors such as: height, weight, race, hair and eye color, style of dress, and any tattoos, scars, or distinguishing marks.
You blind in addition to knowing nothing of the Keepers? Fine I guess I can humor you. I have mismatched Blue and Green eyes and red hair. I'm short with a long fluffy tail. Your eyes can tell you the rest.
8.To which social class do you belong?
Social class? Can you elaborate?
9.Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?
Why do you want to know?
10.Are you right- or left-handed?
Right

You deaf to? Why ask me the questions if you can't hear my answers?
12.What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently
Can't really think of any.
13.What do you have in your pockets
Why do you want to know?
14.Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics?
Not that I'm really aware of, or at least any that stand out to me. I guess most Keepers would consider the fact that I enjoy swimming in the ocean a bit weird.
Part
2: Growing Up
15.How would you describe your childhood in general?
Fun and comfortable.
16.What is your earliest memory?
Causing some sort of trouble with my twin.
17.How much schooling have you had?
How are you defining 'schooling'? I already told you I'm studying at the Arcanist's guild. I've also been trained with the lance since I was 11.
18.
Did you enjoy school?
If you mean “doâ€, then yes its reasonably enjoyable, though some classes are rather dull.
19.Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities?
From the various older women and elders of my tribe for those of a non-atherial nature. For the atherial ones from either the conjurers at Stillglade, or my instructors at the Arcanists guild.
20.While growing up, did you have any role models? If so, describe them.
My mother, a former adventurer herself.
21.While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family?
I got along reasonably well with most of my aunts. As for my cousins it was very hit and miss. Some I got along fine with, others I couldn't stand to be anywhere near them. As for my twin we got along wonderfully.Â
22.As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
To carry on the 'tradition' of my branch of the Moui family. That being the youngest goes of adventuring for a while before settling down and in every prior case giving birth to the next generation. I hope you at least know enough to figure out why the settling down bit won't apply to me.
23.As a child, what were your favorite activities?
Listening to my moms tales of her time as an Adventurer.
24.As a child, what kinds of personality traits did you display?
I guess I was a bit of a trouble maker, though most of it was caused by my curiosity.
25.As a child, were you popular? Who were your friends, and what were they like?
I was one of only three boys in the settlement until I was eleven. Of course I got plenty of attention from the girls. Didn't really make to many friends though a lot of them were a bit 'stuck up' I think is the phrase.
26.
When and with whom was your first kiss?
*Blushes* No-none of your business.
27.Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity?
Your getting rather nosy, if you want me to keep answering I'd drop the matter.
28.If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal human, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today.
Human? What are those? You mean Hyur, uh hate to break it to you but I'm a Miqo'te, a Keeper of the Moon if you haven't figured it out. I'm not going to even bother trying to guess what you meant by supernatural beings.
Part
3: Past Influences
29.What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
My exile for wanting to study magic.
30.Who has had the most influence on you?
One of my moms former adventuring buddies who retired to become a hearer at Stillglade Fane in Gridania. He's the one who gave me the push I needed to admit that I did want to learn more about magic, and damn what that fool matriarch I had thought about it.
31.What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Working up the courage to leave my village to study magic knowing I'd not be able to return as long as the matriarch lived, even if I did need a kick to get over the final hump.
32.
What is your greatest regret?
That I had to choose between following my dreams and staying with my family.
33.What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
My former-matriarch would say it was wanting to study magic. But my a reasonable definition of “evil†I haven't done anything even close.
34.Do you have a criminal record of any kind?
In the eyes of my former-matriarch I've committed the unforgivable sin of learning magic, but otherwise no.
35.When was the time you were the most frightened?
Not for you to know.
36.What is the most embarrassing thing ever to happen to you?
None of your concern.
37.If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why?
I wouldn't of tried to ignore what my branch of the Moui family refers to as “the callâ€, its never ended well for those who tried, and it didn't work out well for me.
38.What is your best memory?
Summoning my carbuncle for the first time
39.What is your worst memory?
Having to leave my home as an exile, with my own older brother acting like I never existed.
Part
4: Beliefs And Opinions
40.Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic?
I like to think of myself as an optimist.
41.What is your greatest fear?
Nothing you have any right to know.
42.What are your religious views?
I believe in the Twelve of course, and I know the Elementals are real even if I never was able to really hear them well enough to become a full fledged conjurer.
43.What are your political views?
That someone is the best qualified to lead just because they're the oldest is a bunch of crap.
44.
What are your views on sex?
*Blushes* No-None of your concern.
45.Are you able to kill? Under what circumstances do you find killing to be acceptable
or
unacceptable?
If I had to I probably could, but I'd prefer not to. As for when its acceptable, if they're trying to kill you or an innocent then killing is an acceptable measure of last resort.
46.In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Again with the “humans� I'm guessing you mean the various races of Eorzea? That'd have to be judging and exiling someone just because of what they are.
47.Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?
I'm just out of my tribe, no idea yet.
48.What do you believe makes a successful life?
Living how you want to live, without taking from others.
49.How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings (i.e. do you hide your true self from others, and in what way)?
I am honest about my thoughts and feelings to people I trust, though I do no when to hold my tongue.
50.
Do you have any biases or prejudices?
Other then the fact that nothing my former-matriarch could ever do would redeem her in my eyes, no I have no biases or prejudices.
51.Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it?
Bow down to my former-matriarch, as for why have you not been paying attention?! She exiled me just because I wanted to study magic.
52.Who or what, if anything, would you die for (or otherwise go to extremes for)?
For now, just my twin. As far as I'm concerned my oldest brother is already dead and my mother would forcibly pull me back into the land of the living before killing me herself if I died to save her.
Part5: Relationships With Others
53.In general, how do you treat others (politely, rudely, by keeping them at a distance, etc.)? Does your treatment of them change depending on how well you know them, and if so, how?
I'm pretty reserved around people I don't know, but I don't avoid contact with them. Of course I treat people I know better then some random stranger off the street. I'm not going to tell everything to some random person, but a close friend I'd have no issues confiding in.
54.Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
Much as I'm loath to admit it, it's probably my former-matriarch, if not for her exiling me I might not have heeded the call so easily, and the call does not like it when my family ignores it.
55.Who is the person you respect the most, and why?
It ain't my eldest brother I'll tell you that much. Honestly I'd have to say my mother, even when I was exiled she still supported me and gave me some basic supplies to help me get started along with letters of introduction to her former adventuring companions if I ran into them and needed shelter.
56.Who are your friends? Do you have a best friend? Describe these people.
I haven't really made any friends since my exile, and before hand most of the members of my village were a bit stuck up, expecting me to be the good little boy and follow the will of the matriarch.
57.Do you have a spouse or significant other? If so, describe this person.
Still single.
58.Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
Nope
59.What do you look for in a potential lover?
Haven't even thought about it honestly.
60.How close are you to your family?
I'm very close to my twin, and fairly close to my mother. I get, or at least got, along well with most of my aunts and a few of my cousins. As for my oldest brother...like I said earlier he's dead as far as I'm concerned.
61.Have you started your own family? If so, describe them. If not, do you want to? Why or why not?
Single so, no.
62.Who would you turn to if you were in desperate need of help?
Xha'to, my twin or to a few of my mothers old adventuring buddies I've met on my journey here to Limsa Lolimsa.
63.Do you trust anyone to protect you? Who, and why?
Kinzie, a hearer in Gridania at Stillfane Glade, as for why he's an old friend of my moms, and the one that gave me the kick I needed to set out and study magic. Also Xha'to, as I trust him implicitly.
64.If you died or went missing, who would miss you?
My twin and mother.
65.Who is the person you despise the most, and why?
That Garuda and Bahamut spawned matriarch from my former tribe.
66.Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
If someone is acting stupidly and endangering others then yes I'll argue with 'em, other wise I'll let them learn from experience.
67.Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
Not really, part of my tribal upbringing I'm still working around.
68.Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Why or why not?
I prefer interacting with small groups of people because being from a tribe of only fifty or so tops, I don't have a lot of experience in large groups especially as we were rarely are gathered in the same place at the same time.
69.
Do you care what others think of you?
I effectively told my former-matriarch to shove her anti-magic views in front of most of the village elders what do you think?
Part6: Likes And Dislikes
70.What is/are your favorite hobbies and pastimes?
I've become rather fond of swimming in the ocean, and also enjoy reading when I'm not out studying for school or doing some levequests to make rent and food payments.
71.What is your most treasured possession?
None of your business.
72.What is your favorite color?
The blue of the sky just before sunset.
73.What is your favorite food?
Don't really have one, though some of the foods I've seen people eating look abit...weird.
74.What, if anything, do you like to read?
Anything about magic really.
75.What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?
Nothing really beats a good story.
76.Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit?
Nope.
77.How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Night by most people's standards or “night†for my schedule? For me “night†is still late afternoon, and night doesn't arrive till nearly midnight. Anyroad I'd probably spend it reading or out swimming if I didn't adjust my schedule to go out during the “normal†night. In that case I'd be doing school work.
78.What makes you laugh?
I've always found people getting knocked of their high chocobo rather humorous.
79.What, if anything, shocks or offends you?
Lets just say some of the stuff I saw or heard while passing through Ul'dah to Crescent Cove I'd have rather missed.
80.What would you do if you had insomnia and had to find something to do to amuse
yourself?
Watch the moon over the ocean.
81.How do you deal with stress?
Run though Katas with my old lance.
82.Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
Somewhere in between, I like to have a very rough plan but planning everything is boring and rarely works anyways.
83.
What are your pet peeves?
People who talk down to me just because I'm fresh out of my tribe and/or a guy.
Part7: Self Images And Etc.
84.Describe the routine of a normal day for you. How do you feel when this routine is
disrupted?
Wake-up a bell or so before noon, have a quick breakfast at the Bismark before rushing to the Arcanists guild for classes until 5 bells or so in the afternoon when I return to the Bismark for another meal before going outside the gates to practice on some the local pests for a bell or so. Afterwords I go down to the ocean and run though a few katas with my lance to keep my skills sharp and stay in shape. When that’s done I'll take a quick dip to rinse the sweat off and cool down before heading back to my room at the Drowning Wrench to study for tomorrow. Weekends I typically run some simpler levequests for the gil for rent and food during the week and as a more practical way to keep my lance skills sharp.
85.What is your greatest strength as a person?
I tend to be stubborn.
86.What is your greatest weakness?
I tend to be stubborn and slow to forgive.
87.If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Nothing
88.Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
Well I've been told I'm pretty extroverted for a male Keeper, not that I really consider my self such.
89.Are you generally organized or messy?
Is organized chaos an option?
90.Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at.
What Am I good and bad at, well for good I'm decent with a lance, knowing when to bite my tongue, and I'm good enough with conjury that I could as a battlefield medic if I had to. As for what I'm bad at? Well there's Archery, Obeying fools, getting up much before noon.
91.
Do you like yourself?
Of course I like myeslf.
92.What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)? Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public? (If so, detail both sets of reasons…)
As weird as it might sound its a bit of a family tradition and curse. For the past five generations at least the youngest child has for one reason or another had to go out adventuring. After ten years or so they settled down, then their youngest would heed the call themselves. I'll probably be the last though, as before me the youngest was always a girl.
93.What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
Seeing the next Astral Era, living up to the family name, and maybe figuring out what exactly happened to my dad.
94.Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Closer to finding out more about my dad, and still curious about whats beyond that next hill.
95.If you could choose, how would you want to die?
I'd rather not die, but if I had to choose it'd be to save someone I considered a friend.
96.If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours, name three things you would do in the
time
you had left.
If I had time I'd return to my village say my farewells to my mom and twin, then perform the most awe inspiring feat of magic I could right in the middle of the village square just to see the look on the matriarchs face.
97.What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death?
Bringing a smile to someones face.
98.What three words best describe your personality?
Three words isn't enough to describe someones personality.
99.What three words would others probably use to describe you?
Not sure about most people, but my former-matriarch would probably use “terrible disloyal halfbreedâ€
100.If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character? (You might even want to speak as if he or she were sitting right here in front of you, and use proper tone so he or she might heed your advice…)
Be true to yourself.

63.Do you trust anyone to protect you? Who, and why?
Kinzie, a hearer in Gridania at Stillfane Glade, as for why he's an old friend of my moms, and the one that gave me the kick I needed to set out and study magic. Also Xha'to, as I trust him implicitly.
64.If you died or went missing, who would miss you?
My twin and mother.
65.Who is the person you despise the most, and why?
That Garuda and Bahamut spawned matriarch from my former tribe.
66.Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
If someone is acting stupidly and endangering others then yes I'll argue with 'em, other wise I'll let them learn from experience.
67.Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
Not really, part of my tribal upbringing I'm still working around.
68.Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Why or why not?
I prefer interacting with small groups of people because being from a tribe of only fifty or so tops, I don't have a lot of experience in large groups especially as we were rarely are gathered in the same place at the same time.
69.
Do you care what others think of you?
I effectively told my former-matriarch to shove her anti-magic views in front of most of the village elders what do you think?
Part6: Likes And Dislikes
70.What is/are your favorite hobbies and pastimes?
I've become rather fond of swimming in the ocean, and also enjoy reading when I'm not out studying for school or doing some levequests to make rent and food payments.
71.What is your most treasured possession?
None of your business.
72.What is your favorite color?
The blue of the sky just before sunset.
73.What is your favorite food?
Don't really have one, though some of the foods I've seen people eating look abit...weird.
74.What, if anything, do you like to read?
Anything about magic really.
75.What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?
Nothing really beats a good story.
76.Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit?
Nope.
77.How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Night by most people's standards or “night†for my schedule? For me “night†is still late afternoon, and night doesn't arrive till nearly midnight. Anyroad I'd probably spend it reading or out swimming if I didn't adjust my schedule to go out during the “normal†night. In that case I'd be doing school work.
78.What makes you laugh?
I've always found people getting knocked of their high chocobo rather humorous.
79.What, if anything, shocks or offends you?
Lets just say some of the stuff I saw or heard while passing through Ul'dah to Crescent Cove I'd have rather missed.
80.What would you do if you had insomnia and had to find something to do to amuse
yourself?
Watch the moon over the ocean.
81.How do you deal with stress?
Run though Katas with my old lance.
82.Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
Somewhere in between, I like to have a very rough plan but planning everything is boring and rarely works anyways.
83.
What are your pet peeves?
People who talk down to me just because I'm fresh out of my tribe and/or a guy.
Part7: Self Images And Etc.
84.Describe the routine of a normal day for you. How do you feel when this routine is
disrupted?
Wake-up a bell or so before noon, have a quick breakfast at the Bismark before rushing to the Arcanists guild for classes until 5 bells or so in the afternoon when I return to the Bismark for another meal before going outside the gates to practice on some the local pests for a bell or so. Afterwords I go down to the ocean and run though a few katas with my lance to keep my skills sharp and stay in shape. When that’s done I'll take a quick dip to rinse the sweat off and cool down before heading back to my room at the Drowning Wrench to study for tomorrow. Weekends I typically run some simpler levequests for the gil for rent and food during the week and as a more practical way to keep my lance skills sharp.
85.What is your greatest strength as a person?
I tend to be stubborn.
86.What is your greatest weakness?
I tend to be stubborn and slow to forgive.
87.If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Nothing
88.Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
Well I've been told I'm pretty extroverted for a male Keeper, not that I really consider my self such.
89.Are you generally organized or messy?
Is organized chaos an option?
90.Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at.
What Am I good and bad at, well for good I'm decent with a lance, knowing when to bite my tongue, and I'm good enough with conjury that I could as a battlefield medic if I had to. As for what I'm bad at? Well there's Archery, Obeying fools, getting up much before noon.
91.
Do you like yourself?
Of course I like myeslf.
92.What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)? Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public? (If so, detail both sets of reasons…)
As weird as it might sound its a bit of a family tradition and curse. For the past five generations at least the youngest child has for one reason or another had to go out adventuring. After ten years or so they settled down, then their youngest would heed the call themselves. I'll probably be the last though, as before me the youngest was always a girl.
93.What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
Seeing the next Astral Era, living up to the family name, and maybe figuring out what exactly happened to my dad.
94.Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Closer to finding out more about my dad, and still curious about whats beyond that next hill.
95.If you could choose, how would you want to die?
I'd rather not die, but if I had to choose it'd be to save someone I considered a friend.
96.If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours, name three things you would do in the
time
you had left.
If I had time I'd return to my village say my farewells to my mom and twin, then perform the most awe inspiring feat of magic I could right in the middle of the village square just to see the look on the matriarchs face.
97.What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death?
Bringing a smile to someones face.
98.What three words best describe your personality?
Three words isn't enough to describe someones personality.
99.What three words would others probably use to describe you?
Not sure about most people, but my former-matriarch would probably use “terrible disloyal halfbreedâ€
100.If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character? (You might even want to speak as if he or she were sitting right here in front of you, and use proper tone so he or she might heed your advice…)
Be true to yourself.
