Firthaki Tarahd (fir-thah-kee tar-rahd)

Firthaki Tarahd

Physical Description

Special abilities

As a psionic, Firthaki has always found that his talents lie in subtlety, stealth, and in gathering information. His powers thus far are: Adrenaline Boost, Catfall, Chameleon, Conceal Thoughts, Deaden Blow, Detect Hostile Intent, Psionic Tongues, Greater Concealing Amorpha, and Eradicate Invisibility.   Firthaki is also under the effect of a permanent Darkvision spell, allowing him to see in total darkness for up to 60 feet. He uses this, combined with his low-light vision, to make the need for light obsolete to him, and thus eliminating the need to carry any means of an illumination source - so long as the magical effect is not dispelled.

Apparel & Accessories

He wears many magic items, all of which he uses to aid him in his self-appointed duties to the world. But aside from the magical, elvencraft, and psionic items, he also wears a black cotton shirt and dark blue leather armbands (the forestwarden shroud he wears is much darker in colouration than normal, as well). Firthaki keeps his potions carefully wrapped up to help avoid chances of breaking, and keeps them in his backpack until they are needed. His dagger is usually concealed in his left boot, while he wears his rapier on his left hip - he is right-handed. His shortbow and quiver are both positioned on his back, underneath his cloak.   When trying to appear unarmed, Firthaki will shift his quiver so that it is in front of him, and closes his cloak so that it remains out of sight. Regardless of whatever he's doing, he almost always keeps the hood of his cloak up, casually making use of its properties even when not actively hiding. Whenever forced to stay within a public place with others knowing he is there, he typically just sticks to the shadows and for the most part does what he can to attract as little attention as possible.   Firthaki almost never actually uses his stygian diabolist psicrown, and only wears it just in case he ever has need of it. He has a strong dislike of using it, as doing so gives him a headache and makes him feel nauseated, but has found himself in more than a few situations where he ran out of mental energy for his powers and was backed into a corner, with which the psicrown provides a much more reliable back-up plan than just 'do your best to escape.'   His skin of ectoplasmic armor is likewise only used when necessary, in case he comes across a dangerous opponent where his leafweave armour and natural dexterity is not enough to keep himself from taking serious injuries. When it's not in use, it is hidden deactivated under one of his sleeves, the armband on that arm being used to keep it in place, with the other armband to help avoid suspicion and to confuse those who know he has it as to which arm it is concealed on.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Firthaki grew up among desert elves, near a volcano located right in the middle of the hottest desert region of Alluani.

Sexuality

Biromantic demisexual

Employment

Spent time in the Solimensi special operations.

Intellectual Characteristics

Firthaki prefers to keep to the shadows, only rarely revealing himself. He tends to stay silent and unseen in settlements, only making himself known to people when in desperate need of food or shelter and there is no wilderness alternative in sight.   As an individual, Firthaki is calm, determined, wary, and full of purpose. It is only rarely that he feels enough at ease to truly relax, though he can pretend to so as to avoid drawing suspicion. As much as he tends to only afford himself the barest necessities, Firthaki does actually enjoy luxuries - if given any without request, he is very appreciative, though he does not always show it.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

He fights against slavery and tyranny, believing those things to be abhorrent and inherently wrong. No-one has any 'right' to treat people like trash or items, in his opinion. Firthaki also opposes unreasonable restrictions and limitations, and supports the downtrodden and suppressed. He will also either ignore or outright oppose ridiculous or oppressive laws.

Likes & Dislikes

He has grown to enjoy temperate climates, though he still has problems with the coldness of the winters. Firthaki also enjoys running through forests, particularly rushing through the trees, jumping from branch to branch.
