Character

General

Nashri'a Illhakyan was born to a clan of leatherworkers and poachers in Gridania. As a child, Nashri'a showed great talent and passion in music, which eventually led to his ambition to discover means to manipulate Aether through voice and sound waves. Despite his remarkable skill in singing and playing musical instruments, Nashri'a's mother and his clan steered his musical direction away and pushed for him to become an archer, for sake of survival and assisting with the clan's poaching business. Nashri'a grew up to become a jaded young marksman, competing amongst his sisters and clansmen.

Tragedy struck his family and clan one day when the Primal Garuda and Ixal attacked during a hunting expedition, forcing young Nashri'a to flee. After the bloody incident, Nashri'a never heard from his clan again. After one misfortunes after another, Nashri'a led a life of poverty and hardships with his friend, Lly'ir but he was independent and carefree. Rest of his past remained shrouded and kept under wraps.

Currently, Nashri'a works as a traveling minstrel, playing music in taverns, troupes and entertainment establishments. From time to time, he indulges in hunts and poaching wild life, to sustain his lifestyle.

Appearance

Nashri'a appears to be a twenty seven year old male Miqo'te of lean, athletic build. Despite being a musician, his appearance bears a war-like look, reminiscing one of a battle-worn hunter. His skin is dark grey in complexion, faint scars pattered across his frame, suggesting the Miqo'te's wild, turbulent nature. His eyes are copper yellow in colour, bearing crimson war paint that accentuates the sharpness of his features. His long black hair frames his strong angled countenance, hints of dark red can be seen blending at the tips of his hair.

He wears several gold earrings on his right ear. Both of his ears are tattered in appearance and riddled with sutured scars.

Personality

At first glance, Nashri'a presents himself as a man of amiable nature and charm; diplomatic and yearning to please the crowd. With his talent in music, Nashri'a enjoys entertaining people and seeking ways to bid for attention. Often thought to be flirtatious and daring, the Miqo'te does extrude a free-spirited, thrill-seeking demeanour. However, his principles and lifestyle strive on conflict, survival and ardent curiosities. Nashri'a is a man who is in love with the savage, the chaotic and the darkest nature of sentient beings.

While Nashri'a isn't an academic individual, he has shown love for knowledge and research, particularly in studies of aetheric manipulation. Regardless of his poverty, Nashri'a invests a lot into teaching himself and indulging into scholarly pursuits. To satiate his need for knowledge, he isn't hesitant to commit heinous deeds to get what he wants.

His dark, mischievous personality often lends into his flighty nature. Nashri'a isn't an individual who can be seen as reliable or responsible.
