BACKSTORY
Fenix's branch of the iryut tribe was based in a cave system high in ishgard, hidden from most others. They were so isolated that the rest of the world seemed a foreign concept.They were born with both genitalia, their body revered in their tribe for their ability to fill any role. Reproduction was important to their tribe, but not so important that love was discounted. Fenix never had to choose which gender to pick and instead was allowed to simply be themselves. They would not face any issue with their gender or sexuality until exposed to the world beyond.Their tribe was large--Fenix themselves having seven sisters and a host of cousins. They were fiercely competitive and always tried to excel in everything they did--from swordplay to hunting and even dancing. They boasted a host of talents from masculine to feminine and were considered the most ideal partner to mate with. Sought after for all their qualities, they had no shortage of suitors--but didn't seem to return the interest.Fenix had been bitten by a bug of curiosity and wanderlust, causing his interests to lie in the wide world. On a hunting trip with his younger brother and some of his cousins, he encountered the outside world for the first time. His cousins warned him of danger but his desire to know got them all in trouble. He and his younger brother were caught by the hyur--taken so quickly their cousins did not know til it was too late.The hyur with their lalafel lord took the pair to ul'dah, where Fenix was forced to present male and use his skill with unusually large blades in the gladiator pits. With his time in the wild and his survival instincts, he did well--but the gruesome state of the pits would take its toll. In growing popularity, he was forced to face off against his own brother. He attempted to spare his brothers life, only for the guards to force him to slay the youth with his own hands. Driven mad by the guilt and horror at having his own siblings blood on his hands, he became more fearsome.Fenix was feral, hardly speaking and nearly uncontrollable in his lust for blood. He filed his own teeth into points so he could rip out the throats of those he faced. All he thought of was blood, death, and the next fight. He became known as 'the reaper' in the ring--as beautiful as he was deadly; not just raw power, but cleverness as well.By the time he was released from his slave contract and allowed to become a citizen, Fenix was 50 and felt more lost than ever. He wandered the alleys for a time, working for less than savory men just to survive. It was here he met an unusual man. The miqo'te ran a small tea house in gridania and offered him a job. Given his not only unusual size for a viera, but his grim sharp teeth--a tea house seemed the worst place. As he came out of his madness at the others gentle behest, he found a version of himself he'd never known he could be.Still somewhat wild, he found he liked the simplicity and comfort of the tea shop. It was the first time that his fate was up to himself. In the end he decided to track down his tribe and family--to let them know of his brothers fate. It took him a long time to find his tribe--and when he did--it only brought more grief. Despite his actions being forced, the consequence for his brothers death was his exile. No more could Fenix return home, nor would he ever be allowed to see his family again.With the tea shop gone (lost due to his miqo friends age) and no home to return to he wanders now from place to place. He covers up his pain with the dangerous work of a mercenary and plenty of drink. It doesn't fill the void of loneliness inside him, but Fenix believes he has nothing left and no hope of ever achieving his dream: a peaceful life with a new family.
APPEARANCE
Tall and lean with lots of muscle and heavy scarring from their days as a gladiator they are a force to be reckoned with. They aren't ashamed of the scars littered all over, but rather proud of them...seeing them as a badge of honor.They have lavender colored eyes and black hair which is now beginning to grey. Their hair also used to be long, but they cut it short after exile as a sign of penance.A black beauty mark in the shape of a heart on their cheekDark, black tattoos that cover their chest, back, arms, and legs.Typically seen wearing dark make-up as they have a fondness for goth fashions.(NSFW)
in youth Fenix had a small chest that is more like slightly softer pecs in his current age. He also has a fully working male and female reproductive system. His vagina sits just behind his penis. He doesn't mind using either and would be considered a switch.Fenix cannot get pregnant or get anyone pregnant as he was sterilized during his time as a gladiator. (this is reversible but I will ONLY rp that with a well established ooc/ic bond)
