Character Name: G'raha Tia (AU'd to Raha Exarcheas) Canon: Final Fantasy XIV Canon History:Here
Canon Personality: G'raha is, in the most basic of terms, a weird, friendly nerd. He is good natured and polite, though does enjoy playful teasing and riddles. He's the sort of person who seems very open, willing to talk about a great many things and happy to lend a helping hand, but very rarely talks about himself in great length and has a tendency to keep secrets. This is especially true of his motives, however well-intentioned they may be.
On the other hand, he is absolutely incapable of hiding his feelings about people he admires and those who are dear to him. In particular, he gets very flustered when anyone points out just how much he adores the Warrior of Light, and the fact that he becomes a complete nerd recounting what he's read of famous figures when he meets them. He is deeply loyal to his friends, despite not always cluing them in on what he's thinking, and will do anything to aid them- up to and including his own death.
AU History: Raha was born in Eastern Europe, but he remembers little of his time there as his family moved to England when he was quite young. His family seemed to have a knack for getting themselves involved in the supernatural, which was a large part of them moving since English normies have a bit more of 'harmless weirdo' attitude towards it all, which turned out to be especially important after Raha became attuned to the paranormal at a young age after a run in with some manner of three-headed dog. The experience did nothing to scare him off from it, however, and he made a habit of reading every sort of fairytale and mythology, and large, overwrought analyses of them when he was a bit older, as well as studying some bits of magic to use on his own.
He's been in Kaisou at the university for a few years, having finished uni in England and moving here for graduate school, and the Spirit Vein is a large part of why he chose school here. He is a giant nerd who spends entirely too much time in the library, to the point of forgetting things like 'eating' and 'sleeping,' but he's a friendly and sociable sort who is happy to strike up conversation and will tell you his entire thesis if you ask. He's TA'd and taught a few undergraduate history classes, but spends a vast majority of his time on his own research.
AU Personality Differences: Main difference is since he has no experience being the 'Exarch,' he is significantly less confident in any situation where he needs to like. Be in charge, or act as leadership. Having to teach classes has been an experience.
Element: Shadow Purchased Powers: Perfect night vision (3 points) (It's great for reading in the dark)
