Here There Be Monsters — RP Information Carrd for Akhutai Urit from Final Fantasy XIV. Xaela & Khan of the Urit Tribe. Magitek Engineer, Host, & Trained Killer. written by SamtheUlfr (he/him, 30+)
GUIDELINES
001. I'm a queer and disabled transman. It isn't as though I bring this up often but I will definitely want RP spaces that are accepting towards such things. 002. I enjoy most forms of RP but I do have certain limits such as no SA or non-con in general. 003. Akhutai is polyamorous and currently has five partners. That said, given that and the way he is, he won't be the most present of romantic partner if such a thing is desired. On top of that, I only ship with high chemistry. 004. I very much play Akhutai in the grey areas of lore. It is not completely necessary to be as lore flexible as I am when it comes to RP partners as I tend to avoid discussing certain matters in the beginning, however if long term RP is wanted, being able to at least accept the grey stuff will become a necessity. 005. I'm terrible at spontaneous RP and prefer being able to schedule something in advance. With some exceptions, my availability tends to be 7pm to around midnight ET. 006. I am also terrible at properly keeping up with Discord RP. Most of the time, I will only really want to go to Discord in order to finish a scene that was started in game. But, depending on the importance of the scene, I might opt for scheduling another in-game scene as I can be rather slow when it comes to replying to Discord scenes. 007. The easiest ways to reach out to me are probably through tumblr or, potentially, through bluesky. My tumblr is linked above and my bluesky is @samtheulfr.
DO'S
Reach out if you might want to schedule something!
Reach out if you just happen to have questions about my OC.
Reach out if you just feel like talking to someone about OCs in general. I like learning about them.
Be patient. I have a terrible memory. I'm so sorry.
DO NOT'S
Be a jerk. Please. Also this is so vague, I know. What do I think is jerk behavior? IDK being transphobic is probably a good start.
Reach out if what you want is romance RP or ERP. Regardless of how flirtatious he can be sometimes, Tai is off the table for that, I'm sorry :(
Be weird about the lore to me. I do know about the lore, but I like playing in the grey areas.
OTHER
While I technically have alts, a large majority of my RP is done solely with Tai. I have one main alt who comes out sometimes whose name is Ivan Amov. He's sort of a palate cleanser for me but he still only comes out every once in a while. Someday he might even get his own carrd though I wouldn't count on it, it takes me long enough trying to put one together for my main guy along with keeping it updated. Other alts I have are much more specific and will most likely only come out with established RP partners.

Unforgiving MBTI INTJ HEIGHT 7’00” HAIR Dark hair generally kept with some length to it. Whether or not it’s tied back seems to vary from day to day. EYES Grey to blue with his limbal rings being the same. They flicker, flash, glint, pulse, and spin according to his emotional state. MARKS & SCARS A pair of extra horns protrude from the top of his forehead, the flash of a grin will reveal a mouth full of sharp teeth, and his left arm is a magitek prosthetic. Scars completely cover his body save for what is covered by obsidian scales. However, his face seems to have, mostly, avoided the same fate, save for a horizontal scar across his left cheek. OCCUPATION Publicly, he counts himself among the numbers of the paramilitary organization known as the Riskbreakers and works as a host for Le Renard Argenté. He also owns a small workshop that seems to take all sorts of custom orders for the right price though he will tell you that he specializes in weaponry. COMMON ACCESSORIES He will never be seen without a pair of necklaces around his neck, one with a silver medallion and the other a crystal, and a copper bracer on his wrist, etched with a sun with a topaz sitting in its center. LANGUAGES Eorzean Common, Eorzean Sign Language, Old Auri Trade Speak and Sign, Archaic Old Auri (Urit Dialect), Hingan, Doman Dialect, Garlean, Old Elezen, some Allag, limited Nymian, extremely limited Dravanian. He’s a polyglot with a thirst to expand his knowledge of languages.
AKHUTAI URIT
This Xaela's history is a long and sordid thing. Raised in the Azim Steppe, he was born into a wretched tribe with a divine purpose. They were, perhaps, the only ones who believed in it, but believe in it they did, and it shaped their way of life entirely. So, this child was born into conflict, and in conflict he would remain, through the inevitable slaughter of that tribe, onwards into the adoption by another, and even still through his life in other lands, among other people.But, he can't complain. What is he going to do with peace, after all? He's had it before. Tasted in it. Did his best to surround himself with it. In the end, however, it was the sweet song of battle that called to him and in the muck and grime of fighting alongside the Bozjan Resistance he had to, at long last, admit to himself that he would always feel the most comfortable in war.Peace was for the quiet moments. For lovers. For the rest between one battle and the next. But a life of peace? No, that would never be for him. Even as it became more and more obvious that his particular life would end up becoming a long one indeed.
The Urit Tribe — New life for what was once lost.
Less of a true tribe than it once was now that this Xaela has decided to properly take the reins of its rebuilding. It doesn't yet have the shadowy reputation it might end up enjoying in the future, but it is clear that its Khan has particular plans for it. Anyone who is a part of it will be taken care of and afforded all of the connections that have been built up, all that is asked for is one's loyalty. Then, one day, the Khan will pass on old traditions, as well as the particularly archaic tongue that is the Urit's dialect of Old Auri. Maybe they will never be what they once were, but they will remember where they came from. And they will be watching, from Dawn to Dusk, and back again.
The Journal — Finding out what makes them tick.
He always has a notebook on him, usually worn and leather-bound. Inside are pages and pages of blueprints, theories, and ideas for new projects. At least, that is what he tends to tell those who ask. Inspiration doesn't always strike him when he is outside of the workshop, but when it does, he never wants to be without the ability to write it down. Unfortunately, for those looking to be able to read any of it, much of it is written as a mix of common Eorzean and some unknown script.
The Mask of a Thousand Faces — Who is it that you see?
This Xaela wears many faces and finds himself slipping into all sorts of spaces. Which face will he show you?
The Void — The abyss gazes back.
Two very thin threads, void in origin, one attached to the necklace he always wears, and the other seemingly attached to his very soul. What do they lead to? Or would it be better to ask 'who'? And are they tied to him or is he tied to them?
The Black Dog — An omen of death.
Are you sure that you saw what you think you saw? Be careful, even the stones have their ways of listening and one wouldn't wish for such ill omens to befall them.
The Eternal Hunt — Cower. Worship. Beg. They are all valid reactions.
This one's aether is far too dense, and there is something particularly unnerving about it if one looks too deeply. But, then again, stranger things have existed on this Star, perhaps it is best to ignore it.
