Chaotic Neutral Ishgardian Heretic, Rare-Goods Dealer & Money Lender with a penchant for pretty things & violence. A great many rumors linger about a man who steeps himself in a great many things not altogether legal.
Alaire is a social creature, craving and seeking out the company of others even if it might simply be in some rank hole of a tavern or speaking with less than reputable folks on the street.

Additional information ––– –
Smoking Habit: Frequently.
Drugs: Occasional for recreational purposes or to test product.
Alcohol: Heavy Drinker.
The Criminal Element: While operating his business under a pretense of legality, Alaire is almost eager to step out of lines of the law - hiring and dealing in less reputable practices.
Expensive Taste: All but drawn to things costly and shiny, Alaire is incredibly materialistic on all fronts. Costly clothes, jewelry, performances and people. Upper-class establishments (even if he doesn’t exactly suit the place himself). He adores gambling & betting on others -- especially shows of strength, fighting or tournaments.
An Interest in Engineering: While he doesn't have expert knowledge with magitek, he has a passion for it. Often inquiring about repair services and frequently seeks rare items or parts of all type and make. (Weapons & Airship in particular)
Trader & Money Lender: If you're looking for longterm or shorter employment, Alaire is almost always hiring. If simply hocking your wares, he has gil to spend! If you find yourself in dire need of coin yourself he will eagerly offer....with hefty interest attached.
Heretic & Dragonblood: Often overly aggressive to other Ishgardians, the man has a bad temper and strong opinions. Recent peace agreements mean little to a man still bitter about loss
A (somewhat) Silent Investor: A patron of the arts and advancements in engineering, Alaire is quite interested in acting as a financial investor when it’s something he deems important...just be aware he does expect to be involved and relies on contracts. The man has a soft spot for those with ambition...but if you’re looking to simply try and con someone out of coin then it might get interesting for everyone.
The above is only a short list to spark some ideas, and I’m more than happy to hear anything and everything else you might have in mind! I am quite open to pre-established relationships as well as always alright with playing the antagonist.
Rumours ––– (Please inquire if using any of these as hooks)
Murderer: There are are a good handful of deaths with his name attached, though trial shoved aside...usually after a exchange of coin and thanks to the familiar relations with a number of low ranking Flames.
Aether Sick/Strange Aether: With wan aether that feels stretched and thin, to anyone who can sense it it's as though his very stuff is filtering away. He radiates an unpleasant sort of tang like someone on edge of aether-sickness.
Mother Killed: Sift through the records enough & you'll find a woman killed a dozen or so years back -- hastily tried and executed for heresy. This is a very...sore topic of conversation for him, to say the least.
Missing Records: Alaire's name doesn't find it's way into the public record until just over half a dozen years ago.
