"amnesia" ; took an hour to write six small vignettes regarding almire's past ; some of the things he does not remember. six sentences each, save for the last. quick, unpolished.

1-4.

having sat on his character for well over a year, no one knows a thing about him — let's change that. you ask, I tell within reason.

loosely based on the concept of counts, his tattoos signify the same. important events. some he remembers. most he does not. they are not tattoos as we understand them, but rather scars. layers of flesh are taken off or opened up and a bone char dyes the healing wound , they're raised.

almire is a fate hunter + broker of bones. he resides in a desolate cabin, where he presides over the body ; tanning, game-processing, leathermaking, of beast and man. he is a bodysnatcher, chasseur, osteomancer. he deals in the dead ; the making of and their parts.

mattokian beauty customs are as vast as the people themselves, but some core elements translate across the clans and across the vast tracks of land. these are typically predicated on appearing "obscurum" ; dark, night, void-touched. black pigment is key.
wld love to hear about mattokian beauty customs.

#almirelore [and greater mattokian lore, lets get into it]

mattokian culture is fairly libertine; even in the few clans that practice modesty as an artform and ritual, sex is destigmatized. pleasure is innate to the cultural identity. most of the 13 clans have within them spaces called "missions."
Has your OC ever hired a sex worker to sleep with them, to do a cam or strip show, etc?

He dreamed again of the coastline where black sea met the jagged teeth of shore. He was alone except for the village at his back filled with sounds yet no one to make them. Another item washed up between his feet and lodged on a thin crust of ice. A child's shoe, no laces.
What core memory comes into their thoughts most often? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?

in his life before the forgetting, dirum entrusted almire with most things. it was an unspoken pleasure that dirum, a worrisome healer so used to holding life in his hands, would submit the more material choices to almire when they were together. dirum gave all his allowances to him
Fetish Friday: How does your OC feel about financial domination (or a form of a BDSM relationship in which dominant derives sexual arousal or satisfaction from controlling or manipulating another person's finances or a sub derives it from giving money and gifts)

the line between career and hobby is blurred when it comes to flesh. though he is a parts dealer and hunter, he is also a game processor, leather maker, bonecarver. "calm" comes to him through things like sex and substance, but also those meticulous crafts. he is a maker.
What does he like to do for fun? Does he have any hobbies he does to help him feel calmer in times of stress?

a large, orca-type whale; "orcus" (underworld) among the clans. they are venerated and seen as the closest, physical manifestation of their lord death besides the prophesized return (verrot). he bears two tailfin tattoos carved into his scalp as a dutiful death-bringer.
What’s his favorite animal?

he's nearly incapable of fear. but fewer things prove more troublesome than man. it's the unpredictable nature ; not of their might, or their wiles, but because how complicated their social demands are. otherwise, he respectfully fears whales. they are kin, they are authority.
what creature does he fear the most?

#almirelore

being mattokian and belonging to a specialized order, he sees death as the beginning and the end. to take life is no more than to return one to their original state. it is a neutral act. he wets his weapons with a nick of his own blood before the strike ; that maintains the balance.
As a hunter, what is his views on death and taking life? What are the rules to his hunt. Are there any exempt from the sharp point of his arrow?

almire was the eldest of three triplets ; three brothers. born caedis, his siblings were similarly named mutilare and scelus. their mother was a skilled member of the cenorunes ; there were songs detailing her kills and marks collected with three babes strapped to her back by board.
Does your OC have siblings?

in his life before, he favored the drums. still does ; war drums, that resonant hide sound. I associate him with percussive instruments. as for contemporary music genres — metal. particularly older doom and death, but also those angrier subgenres like metalcore, deathcore, etc.
If he were music, what genre would he be and on what instruments would it be played?

his subconscious longs for stability. the comfort of someone reliable, trustworthy. a companion he can look to for pleasure, confidence. it rarely connects with his emotions, but it makes him prone to "marking" those he favors; biting, bruising. tokens carved and gifted. not jealousy.
is he territorial or prone to jealousy? does he have drinking 'buddies' or anyone he gravitates toward? what is his favorite prey to hunt and why? would he wear a shark as a hat (important orca lore)?

when using feathers, he will typically use the feathers of carrion ; vultures, crows, ravens. he will also utilize the molted wings of his pegasus, who is also a carrion eater. they guide the arrow to death. otherwise, he uses bone, stone, and shell as well. depends on the mark.
What types of feathers does he use to fletch his arrows?

he is in a state of perpetual hunger that he seeks to sate. while a monstrous desire roils beneath the surface, this theme also presents itself very obviously. he eats, and he eats well. he enjoys cooking in a rustic style. meat and fish on stone, fresh butter, stock, wild herbs.
What's his favorite meal and what's his relationship with food?

I posted it in writing, once, but the summary of caedis, dirum and omina's relationship was that the two men (cenorunes by oath, the hand of charnel — the assassins) had killed a woman as a mark, and in death she gave birth to the babe that would become omina. they kept her.
15 minute sprint. 450 words, unpolished.
"the window." omina and caedis*

while physically in his fifties, he only knows how long it has been since he disembarked at a port to the north of sharlayan and south of the farreach. he marks his new age by the first mark he hunted ; a sharlayan scholar settling would-be idyllshire in 1311.
how old is he and more importantly, does *he* know how old he is

yes, but he cannot remember who. their name, their face. he only trusts that should they cross paths again, it will be the last — that is, if it wasn't already dealt with. it is rare that someone can cross him to such a degree and live to tell the tale, much less plead to amend it.
anyone he simply can't forgive? even if they begged and pleaded, or even if they'd really changed?

he has no memory of it. anything before the voyage from his homeland to the northern reach of eorzea was lost in those arctic waters. memories come to him in vague ideas, like having just woken from a dream ; knowing he had dreamt, but not the details. senses evoke some(thing) in him.
What was his childhood like?

almire is typically nocturnal, so bedtime starts around sunrise. he will sit and watch the horizon's color change, listen to the birds. he has a hot drink before bed; usually his own distilled alcohol from maple, high proof and aged in herbal casks. he'll whittle by fire, polish tools.
what's his "relaxing before bed" routine?
