The Skin
Age: Appears somewhere between late twenties to mid thirties
Gender: Agender
Pronouns: They/Them
Build: Slender, somewhat spindly, hints of muscle tone. Flat chest, androgynous.
Distinguishing Marks: While often hidden by clothes, their torso is covered in odd scars that make up careful lines forming circles and other symbols. To the well trained eye, it would be easy to see it as magic with some odd similarities to allagan works. Their scales seem particularly dark as well, almost as if they reject the concept of light.
Vocals: Unless specified, Terbish speaks very flatly, completely forgoing the ability to inflect or emote with their voice.
Posture and Movement: Outside of combat, Terbish's body movements are very stiff and rigid, ranging from very slow and awkward to quite literally snapping into place in a blink of an eye. But only when actually moving, otherwise they seem unnaturally still, aside from small nervous movements, like tapping their fingers on their side. Needless to say, even just seeing how they carry themselves is odd. Additionally, their facial expression remains fairly neutral.
The Bones
Theming and Disclaimers: This character comes with a lot of body horror. Specifics include, but are not limited to: Contorting their body, bending their joints the wrong way, opening their mouth too wide, odd writhing and crawling movements under their skin, and general movements the body should not physically be capable of.
This character often is about rediscovering humanity and the concepts therein. Philosophical conversations, depression, and anxiety can make an appearance in abundance.
RP Hooks
Monster Hunter: Hunting some voidsent? Livestock mysteriously gone missing? Local cryptid spotted? Terbish just might be at the end of that particular search. Is it a complete misunderstanding, or are they genuinely the culprit? Only one way to find out. Alternatively, Terbish has a bit of a knack for finding and hunting voidsent themselves. Or maybe they find Terbish.
Mysterious Death: Back before Terbish left the Steppe, they used to help map out the caves the Uyagir call home, but as a Moks had some other motives as well. However, their disappearance came with a sudden collapse of part of the tunnels and no one returning from it. As far as anyone from the Steppe that had contact with the Uyagir or Moks may be concerned, Terbish Uyagir/Moks is dead, so what’s up with this ghost walking around so far from home? Worse yet, while they might respond to the right name, recognition seems to be lost beyond that.
Weird Aether, Odd Soul: To any perceptive to such things, there’s something decidedly off about Terbish’s essence. Soul and aether alike seem marbled, mixed, but not fully settled. Strong and dense, but concerningly very similar to Voidsent, and more than simply just a taint. May get some hackles up, may be worth questioning or attempting to study.
Cursed Cuisine: Rumor has it there’s an odd person out there who eats crystals, materia, or even cursed artifacts. Perhaps it’s metaphorical, but either way, it would be a sight, a curiosity, or for some desperate about some form of curse, maybe an answer.
Lonely Explorer: Terbish has a habit of seemingly wandering, more often than not in places that may have condensed aether, crystals, and old ruins. They don't typically keep themselves in any area for very long, and can easily be stumbled into out in the wilds, in some cave, or lurking in forgotten homes.
The Meat
Originally from the Steppe, Terbish spent their life tucked away in the caves the Uyagir tribe call home. A rather simple life, in part due to the Uyagir's belief of being punished by the gods and swearing off personal greed.
Where the Uyagir knew Terbish as simply a scout, capable of delving into the depths of the caves and mapping them out, the Moks knew them as a good source of information on what secrets the caves may hold. Their gifts to the Moks remained fairly basic; the occasional secret exchange during trades among the tribes of the routes in the caves, and the rare remnants of Allag, lost and forgotten under the earth.
This however came to an abrupt end upon the discovery of an old voidsent, sealed and contained within a piece of allagan tech. Leading their mother, who they inherited the Moks name in secret from, to it and allowing her the ability to attempt to study it, they broke the seal. With the voidsent free and hungry, chaos quickly broke loose, damaging the structure of the cave. The end result was the collapse of the tunnel, and their mother resealing the voidsent as best they could, using Terbish, their body, soul, and aether, as a new container. In a wave of confusion, the collapse of the tunnel, and the lose of their mother, Terbish fled the Steppe, hidden in a cloak of void, believed to be dead along with her.
The following few months were a haze, only noted by reports in various locations of Othard of some shadowy humanoid monster disrupting aether and aggressively assaulting anyone who came upon it and attempted to stop it. This came to another unclear end, as eventually Terbish, with a new sense of self, fled even further, looking to hide in the aether rich lands of Eorzea.
In Eorzea, they can still be rather elusive. Enshrouded in rumor and mystery, often avoiding linger in large groupings, and constantly on the move to both avoid encouraging the gathering of voidsent, and to keep their pockets lined with crystals to feed their newly made hunger.
The Soul
My name is Speedie. I have a tendency to be fairly quiet, but I try to keep myself available and attempt to be approachable. I can be contacted in game, clearly, through my tumblr(link in the footer), and upon request can share my discord information. Sometimes my energy may be low, sometimes my sleep schedule may be wacky, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested or unavailable.
While I won't completely rework my character, please please please, let me know if their body movements and unsettling behaviors are too much for you as a player. My goal is never to make you, the player, uncomfortable. Their tumblr page has some writing and visuals on it that may help expand on expectations.
I'm looking for long term RP partners. It can be enemies, it can be friends, it can be unlikely acquittances that maybe someone doesn't entirely want to admit they have but know they can rely on. I'm open to all sorts. Angst and edge are likely to make an appearance in long term RP, but this character is often about working through it and learning how to properly be a person as opposed to fully embracing darker tones. I'm not actively looking for shipping, it's not impossible but it is rather unlikely with this character. Come meet your local cryptid, maybe be startled by their emotional depth and philosophical chatter.
Additionally, sometimes I stream content! Often times it's deep dungeon runs, regularly it's solo! Please check it out and even follow and chat when you see me live!
