POSSIBLE HOOKS –––-
Dungeon Delving - He has a fascination with the ancient civilizations of Eorzea, primarily those involved in the War of the Magi. The mere mention of a ruin to explore or an artifact to retrieve puts a grin on his face and a spring in his step.
Gamblers - For years cards were the primary source of income for Ravard. He is a very skilled card sharp, utilizing a combination of luck, skill and sleight of hand to relieve people of their hard-earned gil. He’s always looking for new marks to hit and potentially rivals to go head-to-head against in a battle to discover who’s better at ‘creating their own luck’.
Mages, students, teachers - Ravard is a fully trained Black Mage of significant skill and not against passing on his knowledge to students he deems worthy. He also enjoys conversing about and debating magical theories and applications. He may be searching for someone to teach him Conjury, as he has almost no skill in it and really wants to be able to work with the entire elemental spectrum.
Employees of the Ossuary (Former and Current) - In exchange for access to their libraries, Ravard worked as a Disciple of Nald’thal for nearly a decade before the Calamity. As such, he would be known by many who worked there back then, and be interested to meet newer Disciples and Priests.
Ul’dahn Citizens - Born on the streets of Ul’dah, he’d have been a common sight darting between the stalls of the Sapphire Avenue Exchange. Ravard was commonly picking pockets and lifting food from the stalls to help feed his family before he got a job with the Ossuary. He may or may not still retain these skills to this day.
WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR ––––
Magically inclined characters. - Ravard is constantly searching for ways to increase his personal skill in both Black Magic and other schools.
Business contacts. - Do you have a magical artifact you need investigated? A strange aetherical circumstance that has occurred? Perhaps something you need lifted off of someone? Something you need ‘acquired’? Ravard can either do it… or probably knows someone who can.
In depth RP connections. - The character may be new, but the player’s got some miles on him. Always enjoy meeting new people and developing complex relationships. Love him, hate him, love-hate him. All are welcome!
Anyone, really! - Sometimes the best connections can come from a couple of people who seem like oddballs together. Throw them all at me and see what sticks. A lot more sticks than you may think.
OOCLY, I AM ––––
US East Coast!
Fairly active, mostly in the evenings into early morning
Usually available on Discord
Open to discussion of pre-existing friendships, rivalries, hatreds, so on and so forth. Just talk to me. Ravard has been all over Eorzea, and has met a lot of people in that time.
Big on communication. I’m good for a lot of crazy things to occur to Ravard, barring the usual ‘Hard No’s. Again, just talk to me.
Lore-compliant to lore-strict. If it can make sense without stretching too much, I’ll consider it.
Okay with Mature RP, so long as it makes sense.
