So it appears something happened to @valisinallforms‘s sister, Amelia. And is downing wine like a boss. @acolyte-turner is concerned and Spike has questions since she went somewhere with a Kainen Marlowe.

I tried to make something cool like everyone else, but I just don't understand art programs yet, so here we are.
If you're like me, this site was really easy to use!
Rules: Respond to this with a reblog containing your filled out bingo \o/ Want to make your own? Template available >>here<<
Despite being a fellow Ul’dahn, there isn’t much they’re similar with. :D
I saw this going around and thought it’d be fun for Spike to do. Template was taken from @s-udarshana (thanks for sharing!)
Tagging anyone and everyone that wants to do this and fill out Spike’s bingo card!

RP Hooks –––
Arcanists’ Guild: Approximately 10-15 years ago, Spike (then a late teenager) ran away from home and headed to Limsa Lominsa to extensively study Arcanism. His foundation for the aetheric arts would be developed and grow here and he was shown to be very adept at it to the point where he even wrote his own tomes.It helps that he was once a student in the highest academy in Ul’dah and all the other kids wanted to be friends with him because he was actually smart and they were all lazy sons of bitches.
Marauders’ Guild: Around that same time, Spike took to the axe and became a Marauder just to spite his parents and to show how unhappy he was with the plan that did not coincide with his own. Despite that, he holds his own well but he knows and is quite aware that many of them are better at this than he is.
Ul’dahn connections: It’s likely that you’ve heard of the Teagues if you are in the “high society life” in Ul’dah. His mother, Sabrina, was an excellent seamstress and textile designer. His sister, Nora, is trying to follow in her footsteps but she seems to be more interested in having someone else make her dresses than she making it herself. If you knew of Sabrina, you likely knew of their kids and how their oldest is the biggest pain in the ass but cannot deny his academic prowess. His father, Norman, was a Captain in the Immortal Flames and wanted for his son to do the same but, as previously stated, it was not meant to be. If you were/are an Immortal Flames soldier, you’d likely have heard Captain Teague say what a huge pain in the ass his eldest son was before The Calamity took place.
Are you a traveler by any chance? Especially in dangerous places? If you have a character that somehow found their way to Carteneau (Carteneau is supposed to be closed off to the general public), you may have seen Spike there. Likely wearing some... kind of weird robe and a tome. Prior to his departure from Eorzea a few years back, he could have been found all over Eorzea. You’d have likely seen him in places such as U’Ghamaro Mines, Zahar’ak, Loth ast Gnath, and The Great Gubal Library.
Are you involved with The Sons of Saint Coinach? There was some sort of... inventory count discrepancy regarding relics they have discovered while traversing around the open area of Mor Dhona. Some special stone and several tomes have been left unaccounted for, for years. Regardless, Spike is known to have helped them on their excavations from time to time.
Riding the Aether: Because of Spike’s talents with the aetheric arts, he can easily ride the aether anywhere in Eorzea, including Gyr Abania once he ventures there. This allows him to be anywhere that he needs to be. (Within reason, of course.)
Contact Information –––
Tumblr: I can always be contacted here on Tumblr, either on this blog @boldausterities or on my main blog @rakuza.
Discord: I can also be contacted on Discord. If you’d like to get a hold of me on Discord, shoot me a message here on Tumblr and let’s see what we can do.
Time Zone: I am in the U.S., Pacific Time. (GMT-8, sometimes -7).
My characters are mostly lore-abiding with some little bit of bending. It’d be great to connect with characters who follow with this as well. Too much lore-bending or stretching is cool but it’s not really for me.
I am up for most RP. Slice of life, adventuring, business ventures, open world, things like that. I am a huge fan of character development and it is precisely this that interests me. Let me set up a character and see how much they can grow, both good and bad. Spike is a “researcher”, which means he will travel. A lot. He can be just about anywhere if need be.
Formatting stolen from @thebaileymail with some cleanup. Thanks buddy LOL!
Also tagging @balmungrp and @ffxiv-crystal-rp (Balmung server) for visibility and for interest! Thank you!

He also now has an incomplete Ref Sheet -- https://ref.st/tspike
I’m actually glad I brought him back. I missed this jackass.
For those of you still wondering... no, the blue is not natural. Only time will tell when he gets it back to its original colour.
Return To Eorzea
Let it be said that one cannot run away from their problems forever. Three years past, I left a gods’ forsaken land called Eorzea in an attempt to start a new life. For three years, I lived in a small village in Mamook and tried to blend in as much as possible. Needless to say the feat itself was easier said than done. In the three years I spent there, naught was actually done aside from living. Without going into details, life was rather dull and there was naught that “called” to me, so to speak. In time, I made preparations to return to Eorzea.
Finding a vessel that traveled there was no easy feat also. It was quite easy enough to be a “stowaway” of sorts and find myself in the shores of Limsa Lominsa a little over a moon later.

There is still a reason he isn’t blond. But look at him.
“Shhh...“
what server are you on?
I play on Balmung! But unfortunately, Spike no longer exists!
----------
As you may all know, all good things must come to an end. Considering the last two posts on this blog before this, it is with great honour that the story regarding Spencer “Spike” Teague has come to an end.
Thank you to everyone that had a hand in progressing him and making him grow as a person and giving him perspectives and outlooks different from his own. For now, he is going to find his own life to the west and perhaps do what he does best there.
Having said all of this, this blog will no longer be updated. Again, thank you for all the great times and the RP and the shenanigans.

“My wanderlust knows no bounds. And at times, I must consider other possibilities. Considering that my life in Eorzea has been filled with strife, discord, and with much conflict, I had considered the possibility of finding a life elsewhere. Granted, I cannot discount the good times I’ve had here for I’ve definitely had them. But as I continue to consider options, the cons outweigh the pros.
“Taking as much gil with me and as many important belongings as I can, I’ve made arrangements to leave Aldenard completely and head west. Who knew that expedition treks are seldom made in Limsa to the west through the Indigo Deep. If I am to seek life elsewhere, perhaps it’s best to seek it where I am unfamiliar to many and start life anew. To the west of the Indigo Deep is a land mass merely known as The New World. In its name’s irony, a new world means a new life. Perhaps I shall give myself a new name as well.
“Anyone may take this as they will. If this is considered cowardice, a chance at a new life, or what may have you, it’s their opinion to make. Those important to me, I must write something. To let them know certain appreciations and that they will be missed. Things of that nature.
“As I look at my document for the ship that is to leave Limsan docks, perhaps it’s wise that I start on those letters. And with this, goodbye Eorzea. Aldenard. You’ve shaped me into the man I am today and perhaps The New World will welcome me with open arms.”
