Theo Kisne


"He was another knife, I could feel it. A different sort, but a knife still. I did not care. I thought: give me the blade. Some things are worth spilling blood for."
Madeline Miller, Circe

the character


Name: Theo Kisne
Age: Appears to be in his mid-20s; actual age unknown
Race: Viera / Rava
Height: (Can we count ears? No?) 6'2 / 188cm
Sexuality: Yes
Profession: Adventurer for hire, mercenary, bartender
PHYSICALLY, Theo's tall for a Viera male with a limber physique honed for melee combat. His skin is marred by a vast constellation of scars, the thickest set encircling his throat.MENTALLY, he's affable and easy-going, casually flirtatious and wholly deficit when it comes to academic pursuits. His demeanor is marked by an easy smile, a pair of sharp, sun-colored eyes and a sharper set of ears. He is a jokester, a drinking companion, a collector of stories, a safe harbor for secrets. He is a wanderer, a liar, an unforthcoming insomniac, a ship without an anchor. He was a soldier once. His name is borrowed; his past, muddied. He searches for a home. He does not know what he'll do when he finds it.GOT AETHERSIGHT? His aether is noticeably more shallow than most.

rp hooks


PAST? WHAT'S THAT?
Theo has little to no ties to his Viera heritage, so it would be nice for him to meet someone who does!
PAST? OH, THAT.
Garlean ex-conscripts/soldiers will recognize one of their own. Theo will be especially dodgy in this regard, so this hook will require some amount of OOC discussion.
IS THAT A KNIFE IN YOUR POCKET, OR...
Theo has probably pissed off a lot of people due to being an ex-Garlean soldier and all! You want revenge for your friend/lover/family/pet-chicken/etc.? Please talk to me about it, but I'm down for that dynamic!
...IT'S A GUNBLADE.
Theo's memory is fractured at best. A gunblade is one of the few things he vaguely remembers. If your character happens to carry one, who knows what this could unlock?
LANCE/SWORD FOR HIRE.
Theo excels in melee, so if you need protection for whatever reason, be it a bodyguard, a temporary bouncer, a fill-in chocobo wrangler, a subpar bandersnatch hunter, hit him up!*
A DRAUGHT FOR SLUMBER.
Theo sometimes has trouble sleeping, so characters with a background in medicine would be a helpful connection for him to have.
A DRAUGHT FOR VICE.
Theo can be found bartending at a couple of establishments. Recognize him from one of them? Feel free to say hello!

*Subject to varying levels of failure. No returns/refunds.

Hi! I go by Justa! My pronouns are she/her. I've been roleplaying on and off on various platforms for over two decades. My posts vary in length and are dependent on what I feel is necessary for the narrative. In that regard, I am a strong proponent of quality over quantity.My time and energy is particularly sparse these days, so as of now, I'm limiting myself to short term roleplay for new contacts in-game only. Thank you for your patience!Insofar as things I will and won't do: my writing tends to have mature themes. For this reason, I will not write with minors. Everything is up for negotiation with the exception of ERP, transphobism/racism/general bigotry in and out of character, explicit torture, and sexual assault.All forms of relationships are encouraged at an organic pace! I am a strong advocate of communication and will work hard to create a safe space for mine and yours.Gposes are done by talented friends. Please check out their Tumblr and/or carrd for more!1.
