Profession(s) and Interests
A'vaanoh is a former gladiator of some renown. After winning big about a decade ago, he took all his winnings and savings... and got out, seeking an education in criminal law.
A'vaanoh couldn't exactly just set aside the fighting life, so he has a hobby of monster/bounty hunting. That hobby got him into a spot of trouble with a voidsent that he now shares his body and mind with, but... any more information on that will require roleplay!
He's also a romance novelist, and writes for any and all pairings the readers might care to see portrayed! It's another side-hobby that's earned him some small acclaim. The people need an escape - and who is he to deny them their cheesy, smutty romance-adventure-time?
He is likewise heavily involved with chocobo racing! Investing in the breeding and training of as much - like any rich guy with too much money on his hands, why not invest in thoroughbreds? He can be found at the Gold Saucer rather frequently! Pretty 'birds,' after all, aren't always found at the races.
Hair: Pale blond
Eyes: Amber
Height: 5'9"
Build: Muscular
Distinguishing Marks: Lots of battle scars - notably, an x-shaped one over his nose/between his eyes
RP Hooks
If you're looking for an RP hook, literally anything on this page suffices!
The voidsent he harbors, alone, could lead to a myriad of reasons to interact.
Maybe you're at the Gold Saucer frequently, like he is - or maybe not, and you just run into him there by chance! You could be a chocobo jockey he's sponsoring! Or a chocobo breeder he works with.
Maybe you read his romance novels and you're a fan! Maybe you want to pitch an idea for a romance pairing/setting/etc to an author you like.
Maybe you want to end up on a bounty together/have worked with him in the past! He's often on bounties out in the Coerthas area, as well - since bounties are all over the place, there's no end of ways one could run into him, or have a reason to. Maybe you're hiring, or picked up the same bounty, etc.
He's a criminal defense lawyer - there's another hook that could go several ways.
He lives in Ul'dah - another reason to run into him.
He effectively counts as a (an unorthodox) reaper, with the voidsent he's made a pact with, a scholar because of the magic he uses/it seemed to make sense with his law studies, and a gunbreaker since he likes guns AND magic, and that's more fun on a bounty than whipping out a tome and doing some math.
Maybe you fought him several years ago in the arena.
Maybe you need a wealthy investor. Or someone to sponsor you in the Arena.
He's an incorrigible flirt, heartbreaker, and consummate bachelor. There's plenty to work with there, too - I'm open to past connections of all kinds.
He's a pretty affable guy, at that! While he takes his work seriously... he believes in: work hard, play harder! He's a lush, and enjoys alcohol, sex, and luxury as much as most of the wealthy elite around the Jewel of the Desert.
The OOC
Writer is 30+, and I prefer RP partners to be 21+ - I do prefer darker, more mature RP, but that's not all I'm capable of! I just like morally grey explorations - and questions like 'what really drives a person?'
Late nights aren't really something I can do anymore, past 11-12pm my writing isn't any good, though my schedule is open enough to allow earlier starting times. Also I'm CST, and prefer in-game RP (Balmung). I simply can't stay in character when RP isn't moving in real time, and tend to just forget to respond to out of game stuff, or not feel well enough to write some days, and it ends up taking so long that I can't stay in character. Thus, scheduling in-game scenes ahead of time will always be what works best.
No canon characters please, it just really breaks my immersion/my character wouldn't have any reason to interact with canon characters really! Unfortunately, this means WoL OCs as well - their power level is just so intense that I can't really justify my OCs interacting with the WoL: time-traveling slayer of gods at the edges of the universe. (And no shade to canon RPers of any kind - it's just not my cup of tea, is all. Embrace your fun, my friends!)
I prefer plots, and RP with a purpose - contact solely focused on ERP is not welcome. ERP as part of an on-going story doesn't bother me, however.
Don't bring IC into OOC, or vice verse!
Communicate! If the RP isn't working for you, just tell me! I prefer 'organic RP,' but if you want to steer a story (RP) in a certain direction or don't want it steering in a direction, let me know! I much prefer having that conversation, rather than allowing an RP partner to be silently upset or uncomfortable!Follows come from @ooc-miqojak , and my other blogs are @miqojak and @vulpes-ferus !
