Gallery
Backstory
Turned into a voidsent from merging with a braindead reaper avatar, he kept his mind and morals intact, but obtained great powers of darkness. He was manipulated and trained by the voidsent ‘Kronos’ to carry out her unspecified revenge scheme, before unintentionally consuming her when she tried to possess him. He journeyed to Eorzea and was later cleansed of all malign influences, though he still remains a voidsent physically.
Personality, Traits, RP Hooks
• Highly intelligent, charismatic, and sometimes manipulative. He is easy to get along with, but much of this is all trained into him, rather than being genuine.• Possesses a startling capacity for violence when allowed to engage in real combat unhindered.• Fiercely loyal to his friends and associates, his love and appreciation for them is real, and there are no atrocities he would not commit to keep them all safe and happy.• Secretly fightsexual, he loves getting gritty in an all-out brawl, but loses matches quite often due to forcibly restraining himself.• Has a very unusual sense of fashion, preferring neon pinks and purples as compliments to black, frequently donning leather garments, and gelling his hair.
Skills and Abilities
• Most often uses a double-ended glaive, but is skilled in the use of Sage Nouliths as well as a Warrior Axe• Capable of consuming souls, and inheriting skills and abilities from them• Talented as a Goldsmith, capable of crafting and creating arcane artifacts of surpassing quality• Dangerously intelligent, even if he sometime seems to lack common sense or make stupid decisions• Very high degree of superhuman strength and agility to assist in combat or parkour
Zeus
Elakha
"The Cyber Cat"
A genius Keeper who, through a fascination with Allagan Technologies, self-experimented to gain physical enhancements.
Gallery
Backstory
Originally born to a Keeper tribe, he was an expert at physics and devices, but was looked down upon by his peers. He hated being around people he considered incompetent and privately embarked on repeated expeditions to Dalamud's Talons to retrieve Allagan Technologies. Through trial and error, he found a way to access the contents of their tomestones, and taught himself to read, learning as much as he could about their languages.His greatest find was an Allagan Information Repository (AIR) node. Overtly furious at the generalized Keeper culture having a propensity for physical pursuits over mental, he fled his group at a young age to research technologies in secret. Fervently following the works of Aulus Sas Arvina, an Imperial Researcher, as well as the technologies of Sharlayan and Garland Ironworks, he attempted to use Soul Extraction to implant himself in the body of an Allagan clone.Unfortunately, the disparity between his original self and new Allagan self caused his new body to seize up, and his organs to fail one by one. Though replaced with artificially crafted versions, Zeus requires the presence of an advanced life-support suit to keep him heart beating, until he can try again.
Personality, Traits, RP Hooks
• A terrible combatant, despite a genetically superior body. A handful of angry farmers could beat him.• Allagan Grafts let him conduct levin to power both his suit, weapons, and life support, but faulty construction makes it so levin attacks AGAINST him causing the system to backfire spectacularly.• He’s not the nicest person, due to self-esteem issues. He can come across as belittling or arrogant amongst those he considers intellectual inferiors, but ultimately he just wants friends he can relate to.• Very strict when it comes to following rules and safety guidelines. Not afraid to speak his mind if he believes someone is taking unnecessary risks or violating laws.• Unbeatable at the Xaelic game of Kharaqiq. Player will not roll dice or acknowledge RNG when it comes to this game he is supposed to be an expert at. That said, this applies only to Kharaqiq, and if you throw a Triple Triad card at him he will collapse.• Has an Allagan Information Repository (AIR) node that follows him around. It has access to the information from every tomestone Zeus has ever read. He even got his name ‘Zeus’ from the name of his Alagan Researcher Idol described in a tomestone. His ability to understand Allagan technologies is exceedingly rare, and he does not go around sharing his expertise.• His original name is Zerus'to Elakha.
Skills and Abilities
• High physical attributes, but utter incompetence in their usage.• Equipped with several Allagan-Based weapons he constructed himself from scratch.• AIR node lets him process and read the information from Allagan Tomestones.• Blasts of Levin Magic cause his body to seize up temporarily.• Really good at designing Arcanima Runes, as it is like a magical programming language.• Equipped with an Allagan life support suit so he doesn't die.
Bido
Hhetsarro
"The Hammer"
A Hhetsarro in line to become the next leader of his clan, who forsook his duty and fled to avoid responsibilities.
Gallery
Backstory
Though he keeps the exact location of his homeland a secret, it is known to be somewhere in Shaolaani in Tural. When innovations began filtering into the small Hhetsarro community, it was expected that Bido would take over duties as leader of his small faction.Unfortunately for the presiding leader of the tribe who’d hoped that Bido would one day take over his duties and provide lots of grandkids, Bido was very gay since birth, and continues to be. As such, Bido ran far away, and does his best to never mention his clan, using his survival instincts and exemplary assets to forge his own (homosexual) path in life.
Personality, Traits, RP Hooks
• A fan of birds, with an Tuliyolalan Quetzal named ‘Pecker’ that he has trained to follow him around.• Can be mischievous and playful, and also tends to sometimes get people into trouble (including himself) with ideas that go very badly because he is overeager.• He doesn’t do this intentionally, but he has ‘rizz’ which makes him physically very desirable, even though he does his best to avoid making that a personality trait.• Horrible at gambling, and he has a startling propensity to lose his clothing at times.• There’s really not much else, this guy is incredibly vanilla, so please ruin his life.
Skills and Abilities
• His main form of combat involves an extremely large metal hammer that probably weighs a ton, which he swings around with skill.• Likewise talented with a bow, he is a skilled hunter, and fighter even without arrows.• He has some bardic talents but not those to the extent of what’s found in Gridania. He simply knows how to sing and play musical instruments.• He knows enough basic conjury to use wind and water spells, claiming his homeland is rich in the element of earth. He is not a dedicated healer, but he can use enough of the basics to be a healer in a party if need be.• Often wears extremely heavy plate armor, which slows him down, but renders him impervious to harm.• Physically strong but by no means superhuman, he is simply more physically robust than a typical Tia, bordering that of a Hyuran Highlander.
DEVI
CRYSTALSOUL
"The Expressionist"
A gigantic Xaela who was trapped in Yasulani when the Alexandrian Dome dropped. He learned the arts of Pictomancy and stayed young due to a voidsent pact.
Gallery
Backstory
After living a life full of curses and aetheric maladies, Devi went on vacation to Yasulani and ended up trapped for 30 years. A pact of immortality with a voidsent kept him young, but the conditions inside the Everkeep helped to correct his former fire aether imbalance, and gave him enough time to pursue a medical degree. Ever imaginative, Devi has taken up Pictomancy, but mostly enjoys the life of a retired father and medical professional.
Personality, Traits, RP Hooks
• He’s freakin’ gigantic, like at least 12 feet tall, and built like the hulk. We don’t ask how he and his husband ‘make it work’ but Tsuki seems quite pleased and content.• Cured of an imbalance towards fire, but doing so required Ice and Levin, leaving him more than capable of casting Thaumaturgy magics, but starved for Conjury magics. As a result healing spells are overly effective and tend to be like energy drink infusions.• Keeps alive ‘ye olden’ Xaelic traditions, and will never say no to Bokh, even though he is way too big to bokh effectively. He makes an intimidating opponent, but a slow one.• Adapted to life in Solution 9 to the point where he is no longer accustomed to living without modern conveniences.
Skills and Abilities
• Has some skill with Pictomancy, picked up from a Sharlayan Mage on Vacation who likewise ended up trapped in the dome.• Very large and physically strong, but compensated for by a significant lack of speed and dexterity.• Still remembers his skills of Eastern Style exorcisms and purification, which he has been practicing and improving ever since.• A licensed medical professional, but doesn’t often get to help heal people on account of not fitting through the door.• A consummate dad with all the traditional dad skills, including knowledge of technology taught by his husband, how to grill, and how to make terrible jokes.

Spoiler Stuff
Personality, Traits, RP Hooks
• Polite and honest for the most part, and a little bit over-curious. (Maybe even a little bicurious.) He is a big man with big emotions that he wears on his sleeve• Staunchly loyal and determined to prove his worthiness. He is a devotee of the Kami, with his greatest praise being given to Benzaiten and the Great Auspice Byakko• He refers to himself as a ‘White Tiger’ in honor of his chosen Auspice• Friendly but secretive. He does not raise his voice and remains fickle but polite• In certain combat states he becomes a lot more wild and ferocious• I once did a personal /random roll to see how good he could cook and in one try I rolled a 999/999 with witnesses. So I will never let anyone forget that Daegeun Kang is a heckin' Eorzean Gordon Ramsey
Skills and Abilities
• Reasonably talented with eastern martial arts, and a passable swordsman. He was never formally trained, instead relying on katana techniques inherited from his father.• Has ninjutsu training, due to studies with the Tora clan, though they relied less on stealth and more on brute strength.• Owns a gunblade crafted using Ala Mhigan rubies. He had to answer several riddles to get his hands on those rubies, and it wasn't fun at all. He's competent with the weapon, but he doesn't rely on it.• Capable of using magic but not great at it. Most of his spells are debilitating in nature, inflicting Blind, Sleep, and Paralysis rather than damage.• Training with the aforementioned Tora clan allowed Dae to enter an Arcanist Trance known as 'Tiger Trance'. The trance envelops him in a thin layer of transfiguration aether which enhances his strength, speed, and senses. It also gives him cute cat ears and a cat tail.• Dae has a special piece of auracite on his necklace that lets him summon an incarnation of Byakko. Though the Auspice exists for real in Eastern Territories, the figure Dae summons is a primal much like how Ysale was able to summon Shive, but remained protected by the Echo.• Dae also has the echo, which is what lets him use his Tiger Trance and Byakko form without lingering results, aside from the immense aether cost.
Savage
Flame (NPC)
"The Immortal Flame"
I'm not sure how to describe him without spoilers so let's just say he's got problems and none of them are his fault.
Gallery
Backstory
Conceived during a blood ritual amongst wealthy Ul’Dahn elites, his soul before birth was traded into the service of a fire-aspected voidsent named Belial, in exchange for his family’s continued affluence. Serving as a constant ‘feedbag’ for Belial led to Savan being raised weak and often sickly, but fiercely combating his condition with an extreme physical wellness regimen. Recently Savan discovered the secret of his family’s sinister deal and has made it his goal to see them all put behind bars, and the demon slain.

His actions were seen as traitorous, and Hail was expelled from the Temple Knights.Both brothers remain in very good standing with each other, agreeing that the actions of the Holy See were inexcusable, but without a place to utilize their skills, they eventually wound up at DWC to become the “Himbros”, a duo of Elezen recruits ready to fight the forces of evil.

He refuses to use the talents of the White Mage despite owning the crystal, preferring to stick to basic conjury practices.• Both brothers are awakened to dragon blood within, they can understand the dragon language without having the Echo.

Gallery
Backstory
Though originally born in Thavnair to a fishing family, much of his life was spent onboard a boat. At a young age, while checking a fishing net, he found an unusual vase caught with the catch. While his aging father dismissed the item as ‘useless junk’, Nami cleaned it up and was able to sell it to a collector of Thavnairian artifacts for a modest finder’s fee. Though the act was mundane, it gave Nami an insatiable drive to seek adventure, danger, and of course treasure!As the years wore on, Nami eventually saw both of his parents peacefully pass away to old age and swore to never let it happen to himself. Though still in his prime, Nami recognizes his best years are running out fast and has started to get impatient and desperate for a solution. Hearing tales of voidsent, and their ability to resurrect after a demise, Nami has been moving in the more occult circles, in hopes the void might provide a solution. His path has led him to become an agent at DWC, a public voidsent hunting service.
