Kamora Xai

The Grinning Fool.

Kamor'a Xai.

Crystal | Mateus | PST

A boyish grin crosses the ebon Miqo'te face as crimson eyes smile upon you... "Well met friend, I am Kamor'a, pleasure to greet yee!" he says as he bites into a sandwich before removing a black flask from his jacket and taking a swig. "I hope you are ready for an adventure!" he says turning, he opens the door and takes a step out, looking back he nods in the direction he is walking, beckoning for you to follow!

Those who partaketh in the realm of reality should be privy to understanding its prioritization over fantasy. (Real life comes first!)
I am open to Romance RP, and am new to ERP, however, I generally keep my RP centered around story progression... meaning things need to make sense and the work and time needs to be invested to create that environment.
IC ≠ OOC. Well-versed in RP etiquette, do not blur the lines.
18+, especially if things start shifting to the Romance side of things.
RP tag on = feel free to approach.
Prefer in-game Role Play.
Please no Lore-Thumpers, I like to be lore-friendly, but not to the point where it stifles creativity.

Hello fellow gamers! A little about myself, the writer behind Kamor'a.I started roleplaying in 2017 back in my Wildstar days. After the game shutdown, I moved to Final Fantasy XIV where I have been since. My roleplay has evolved over time, from where I started only doing combat/adventure style RP, to where I am today, enjoying all aspects that roleplay has to offer.Outside the roleplay world, I am an Active Duty Navy Chief Petty Officer. I have served my country for 19 years and -hoping- to retire here in the coming years. I am married to my handsome and loving husband for 10 years and we have two beagles.

Personality. A goof ball by nature, Kamor'a comes off as eccentric and lively; exuding a natural aura about himself that speaks of boyish charm, adventure, and love for life. Adopted as a kit, he grew up outside of Miqo'te culture which often leaves him naive around his own kind, though he desperately wishes to fit in. A boyish grin is his signature feature, one he wears with pride or as a mask to hide the demons of his past. Never one to shy away from a proper fight, Kamor'a values strength in others and a proper show of power will gain respect from this warrior. Lackadaisical and nonchalant, Kamor'a will often deal with situation with a yummy sandwich in hand, he often misses the important details in favor of the insignificant ones, and is capable at keeping his calm in most difficult situations... mainly because he doesn't even realize how grave the situation is to begin with. His random thoughts and cheeky nature baffle most and his can-do attitude is contagious. One might argue that to befriend this weirdo, you either are crazy... or have the patients of a Saint!

Impossible is just a word for people convincing themselves not to try...

Relationships.

Mother | Nyx Xai | Deceased The matriarch of the once Noctua Clan, Nyx rose to power in her early 20s, a prodigy Sorceress, few dared challenge her for her position at the head of the clan. Nyx, along with most of the Noctua people, were murdered at the hands of 'The Order' on the eve of Kamor'a's birth.

Mother (Adoptive) | Akira Kokyu | 'The Dragon' Akira started her life as a squire of a prominent Hingashi Samurai lord. She was raised by the blade and became known for her unique spell blade fighting technique. During the Doman Liberation she quickly gained a reputation for her prowess on the battle field earning her the alias 'The Dragon'. When Kamor'a was entrusted to her to raise, she accepted the responsibility and raised him as her own along side her son, Hikira; giving them a similar upcoming to her own, one by the sword. Today, she enjoys her retirement from the battle field as the leader of Shuinku Tatsu Adventure Society.

Brother (Adoptive) | Hikira Kokyu | 'Dragon's Fang' Only a year older than Kamor'a, Hikira quickly and proudly adopted the role of 'Big bro' to Kamor'a. Hikira and Kamor'a were raised under the tutelage of their mother Akira. Through her guidance, Hikira was raised by the sword... his days spent with intense training, rigorous study, and strict routine. As he grew into a young adult, Hikira officially joined the ranks of the adventure society alongside Kamor'a where he stills serves to this day.

Uncle (Adotpive) | Cemi'to Epocan | 'Noctua Elder' One of the last two known survivors of the Noctua Tribe, Cemi'to escaped from the massacre of his people with a new born Kamor'a in tow. He traveled far to the island of Shirogane to escape pursuit from 'The Order' where he happened across Shinku Tatsu Adventure Society. Driven by a sense of vengeance, he entrusted the care of Kamor'a to Akira Kokyu while he traveled the lands seeking information on The Order. While not directly related to Kamor'a, he quickly became known as 'Uncle Cemi' to the young Keeper when he returned from his travels. At present, Cemi'to has decided to settle down and do his research from the safety of Shinku Tatsu.

Best Friend | Kororo Koro | 'Sister from another Mister' Whom ever said opposites attract hit the nail on the head with this eccentric friendship. Kororo is an unruly crime boss with a big heart and an even bigger knife. Her stance on the world is 'let it burn', often to the dismay of Kamor'a. Her taste in men is... many... and her out going personality makes her a perfect wingman. These two can often be found in the Sands or out and about at venues causing mischief in one form or fashion. Regardless of their flaws, Kamor'a and Kororo are unlikely friends who see each other through thick or thin, beware to any who come between them or choose to cause them or those they love harm.

— history.

Sandwiches...

are the garnish on a prime slab of perfectly pan-seared rakish charm...

lore: origin.

MANY MOONS AGO...
Within the swampy lands of Nagxia, hidden deep in the jungles just south of the One River, the Noctua Tribe made their home. A secluded clan of Keeper Miqo'te, the Noctua had migrated East after the Fifth Umbral Calamity, adopting the customs and ways of the land over generations.
Under the crimson glow of the harvest moon, Nyx Xai — matriarch of the tribe — gave birth to her firstborn son, Kamor’a. The tribe celebrated long into the night with music, spirits, and dance... until, as the blood moon reached its zenith, tragedy struck from the shadows.

THE ORDER... An ancient and feared clan of assassins, known across the region for pillaging and slaughter, descended upon the Noctua. Swift. Merciless. Unrelenting. The defenders, led by a weakened Nyx and her finest warriors, fell one by one. The Order was too many. Too trained. Too cruel.
With her final breath drawing near, Nyx placed Kamor’a in the arms of her most trusted advisor, Cemi’to Epocan. Grief-stricken yet resolute, Cemi’to fled into the night — leaving behind his home, his people, and all he had ever known.

ON A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT...
A ragged Miqo’te limped through the rain-slicked streets of Shirogane, a crying child clutched to his chest. Exhausted, starving, and soaked to the bone, Cemi’to wandered without direction — until a warm glow cut through the storm. A grand manor stood before him, its windows flickering with light... and the aroma of food hanging thick in the air.
He pushed forward... step by step... until he collapsed just short of the door. The baby’s cries were the last thing he heard before the world went black.

SHINKU TATSU ADVENTURE SOCIETY...
When he awoke, Cemi’to learned he had been found and taken in by the Shinku Tatsu Adventure Society — an up-and-coming guild based in Shirogane. Its leader, Lady Akari Kokyu, had taken pity on the man and child and offered them sanctuary.
As Cemi’to healed, he told his tale. Akari listened. And she offered them a place — shelter, purpose, and a second chance. But vengeance burned in Cemi’to’s heart, and once recovered, he entrusted Kamor’a to Lady Kokyu's care, departing once more to seek the power to confront those who had destroyed his world.

AS THE STORY GOES... Kamor’a grew under Lady Kokyu’s watchful eye. Alongside his adoptive brother, Hikira, he was raised by the sword — days filled with rigorous training, mental discipline, and unwavering expectations. Lady Kokyu, a warrior famed for her valor in the Doman Liberation, passed on her knowledge with precision and care.When Kamor’a came of age, he formally joined the ranks of the society that had been his family all his life.

PRESENT DAY... Now a trained Shinobi, Kamor’a continues his journey. With his training deemed complete, Lady Kokyu has sent him into the world — to seek wisdom, to find his truth, and to forge a path that is his and his alone. Yet the past is never far behind.The Order stirs once more. Their motives unknown. Their gaze returned.Kamor’a walks forward... not as a child of tragedy, but as a blade yet forged — his future unwritten, his destiny waiting to be seized.

— hooks.

Below is a list of possible points of interest that your character and mine might share. Any hooks marked with an ( * ) are rarer and circumstantial that will require OOC communication and/or time for the plot to develop.

The Anomaly

Unique in appearance, his ebon skin and crimson eyes are not commonly seen.
For those sensitive to aether, you notice Kamor'a's aether is unique, with a Crimson aura.
Did he just pull a sandwich from his pocket? How strange... how did it even fit in there? By the look on his goofy face as he happily feast on the delicious snack, odd things probably are a common occurrence around the unique Miqo'te.

Common Trade

Kamor'a carries himself as a warrior, to any trained in the art might see a kindred spirit in him, even when he isn't carrying his weapons.
A Journeyman Alchemist and Novice Saké Brewer, Kamor'a prides himself on his craft. May-haps you purchased wares from him in the past or wish to make a new purchase in the near future.

Familiar Faces

Being a Keeper of the Moon or Miqo'te, in general, may sway a natural kinship and comfort to approach him.
(*)You were associated with the Noctua tribe in some manner, and/or you think you may recognize him.
(*)You were associated with "The Order" in some manner, and you think you may recognize him.

World Traveler

Adventuring tends to send Kamor'a all around the world. Mayhap you have seen the Miqo'te out and about on one of his trips.
With a taste for saké, Kamor'a can often be found frequenting the Shiokaze Hostelry tavern in Kugane.
Friends who reside in Ul'dah has Kamor'a often visiting the Quicksands for a drink and sandwich.
