Rules
I only rp with those who are 21 or older.
Please keep ooc, ooc. And ic, ic. I am not my character and my character is not me.
Please don’t force romantic interactions on my character. If things naturally develop in that direction, I’d prefer it to be a slow burn and discussed with me beforehand.
D/E/M themes are ok (only with 21+ writers and characters and tall characters)
If you ever feel uncomfortable or need to pause/stop a scene, please let me know. I’ll do the same.
Quality over quantity - I don’t expect rapid replies. Real life comes first.
I ask my boundaries to be respected, if this cannot happen we cannot collaborate.

Hi there! You can call me Fey and I'm always open to making new RP connections! I've been rping for 10+ years and 4 in ffxiv.
I'm in the PST timezone and often busy with work, traveling to visit my partner, or caring for my animals. so my availability can be varied. That said, I'm usually around in the evenings and happy to RP then! Feel free to walk up if you see my RP tag on, or send me a tell anytime so we can plan something ahead of time that works for us both.
I'm a little shy when it comes to walk-ups or joining group RP on my own, so if you're checking out my Carrd, I'd really appreciate a tell to break the ice and set something up! I’d love if you let me know directly that you’d like to RP, I’m not great at picking up subtle hints, so being straightforward really helps me understand you’re reaching out to collab! If I don’t reply or seem to vanish, it’s almost always because I got distracted or busy, not because I’m ignoring you. A gentle poke or second message is completely okay with me.
I have had Karma for quite some time now and love putting him in various situations and seeing him grow. Thank you for taking a look at my character carrd!

about Talwahn Daemir is outwardly warm, polite, and curious. He is a man of quiet charm and subtle wit. He’s easy to speak with and carries himself with the refined confidence of someone raised in prestige. He holds his family's legacy with visible pride, honoring the Daemir name in both his demeanor and discipline.
Behind that pleasant exterior, however, lies a sharp and calculating mind. In his alchemical work, Talwahn is cold, precise, and often cruel. He views morality as a variable, willing to do what others won’t if it means progress. What he offers in friendship, he balances in ruthlessness behind closed doors.To the world, he is a charming noble and royal guard.
To his closest clients, he is a genius.
In truth, Talwahn is both, and far more dangerous than either title suggests.

biography Born into the esteemed Daemir lineage, renowned across the continent for their alchemical constructs, distillation engines, and enhancement devices, Talwahn was raised in a world of clinking glass, churning gears, and aether-charged innovation. From a young age, he was surrounded by scholars and engineers, each devoted to refining the practical aspects of alchemy for industry and commerce.
But Talwahn’s interests diverged early. Where others saw machines and markets, he saw change, not just in matter, but in people, intent, and design. His passion lay in transformation on a deeper, more delicate level: the kind that cannot be sold or displayed, only understood.Though heir to the family legacy, he unexpectedly pursued the life of a royal guard, a decision that raised more than a few brows within noble circles. Officially, he claimed a desire to serve the Satrap directly, but those who know him best suspect otherwise. The position grants him freedom: unrestricted movement, unquestioned presence, and the perfect veil for a quieter pursuit.Beneath the polished armor, Talwahn continues his work in secret, experimenting with obscure compounds, unsanctioned mixtures, and toxins crafted with surgical precision. Few suspect the truth. Most believe he abandoned alchemy entirely in favor of his royal duties.He allows that assumption to stand. In truth, he still lends a hand in the family labs from time to time, just enough to keep appearances intact, and curiosity at bay.

Common: “Noble’s Shadow”
You’re attending (or loitering near) a noble event or public speech or perhaps visiting the city. Talwahn is stationed nearby, visibly armed but not aggressive. He’s the sort of guard who’ll speak if you approach, friendly, alert... and watching everything.
Uncommon: "Assigned to Protect”
You (or someone close to you) is being escorted by Talwahn as a royal bodyguard. He’s polite, capable… and strangely perceptive about your status
rare: “The Daemir Name”
You recognize his surname, perhaps you studied under a scholar, bought one of their machines, or resent their control over the alchemical industry. Either way, Talwahn’s name draws your attention.
Common: “Off the Record”
You’ve been directed (quietly) to a man in Radz-at-Han who can brew something the Alchemists’ Guild won’t touch, something illegal, experimental, or incredibly rare. You just need to prove you’re worth his time… or coin.
Uncommon: "A Cure with a Cost” Someone you care about is sick. No healer can help, but Talwahn offers a potion that might work, if you agree to test something of his in return.
rare: “Once lost”
Rumor speaks of a Daemir-crafted tonic that can erase a single memory, yours or another’s. It’s never for sale… unless he offers it to you first.
advanced/ask: "The Mysterious Chemist”
Someone saved your life with an unnamed elixir left on your doorstep. A contact says it was the work of a “Daemir,” but not one officially listed in the guild. are there side effects? more than likely...
advanced/ask: "The Locked Lab”
Rumors speak of a sealed room beneath an old spice warehouse. Some say it’s cursed, others say it’s a lab. What’s certain is that Talwahn has a key he never shows anyone.
advamced/ask: “Potion Gone Wrong”
You or someone you know, used a Daemir-crafted tincture that had… unexpected consequences. Talwahn insists it wasn’t his. But he’s very, very interested in what happened.
