Farhad (FAHR-haad)

Farhad Elsod (a.k.a. Hardie)

Hey there, it’s Farhad—or Haddie to those who favor nicknames. I’m just a soul among the city lights, trying to balance the give-and-take of life with a dash of grace. You know, the kind of guy who finds meaning in the brushstrokes of a street mural or the well-crafted words of a late-night journal entry.
I’m all about the art of conversation and the poetry found in everyday moments. Whether it’s discussing the latest indie film or sharing verses that struck a chord deep within, I’m there. My friends are the ones who can lose track of time discussing life’s quirks over a cup of the city’s best espresso.
My days are spent with music that speaks to life’s complexities and nights where I get lost under the open sky—not seeking answers, just embracing the beauty of the questions.
I thrive on connections that go beyond the surface, those rare finds who aren’t just passing figures but potential companions on this journey.
My adventures are more about cultural immersion, trying out a new recipe that brings a corner of the world into my kitchen, or diving into books where every page is a new horizon.
If you resonate with musings under the moon and laughter that dances through the chaos of life; if you're intrigued by the intertwining of tradition and the pulse of the present, then let’s share stories. Let’s revel in the beauty of the balance, in the quiet poetry of the everyday, and perhaps discover that the most profound connections are just a shared experience away.

Special abilities

• Truth Detection : Farhad has the ability to discern truth from falsehood. When he focuses on a person's words, he can understand their true intentions, though he uses this ability sparingly to respect the free will of mortals.

Inherent Divine Abilities

• Immortality: The gods are ageless and cannot die by conventional means. To maintain secrecy, they often live in hidden or shifting locations, or periodically assume new identities to avoid arousing suspicion over their unchanging appearance.
• Shapeshifting: Gods can change their form at will, allowing them to blend into different societies or environments. This power is used discreetly to avoid drawing attention, such as adopting the guise of different people over the ages or turning into animals in inconspicuous situations.
• Superhuman Strength: This power is used with caution, as overt displays can reveal their divine nature. When necessary, gods might disguise their strength as remarkable human feats, still within the realm of human possibility, or use their strength in situations where they are not observed.
• Self-Healing Powers: Gods can heal themselves from injuries instantly, but they do so in private to avoid revealing their divine nature. In situations where they are hurt in the presence of mortals, they might retreat to a hidden location to heal.
• Flight: When gods fly, they become invisible to ensure they are not seen by mortals. This power is often used for quick, undetected travel or to reach places inaccessible by other means.
• Dreams: Communication between gods is conducted through dreams to avoid physical meetings that could be witnessed. This method allows them to exchange information and make decisions without leaving any tangible evidence of their interaction.
• Divine Inspiration: Gods inspire mortals by planting thoughts or ideas in their minds, particularly in individuals who are already creatively or intellectually inclined. This inspiration is subtle, often perceived by the mortal as a sudden stroke of genius or an epiphany, without realizing the divine influence behind it.
