HOOKS
Last Resort
Ima'miah thrives on the desperation of others. Those lost souls who have reached their last resort; who see no further options ahead of them, except that which he's able to provide. For a cost. A hook for those caught in turmoil: addiction, financial struggles, perhaps even running from the good folk of the law?One Fear
Ima'miah's primary personality revolves around exposing and exploiting fear in others. He sees playing with emotions as a sport; and enjoys eliciting, and observing, what the mortal soul can do when faced with fear.To See Your Limit
To see someone reach their limits in combat is a thrill of it's own right; a pure elation that Ima'miah continues to seek - if not only to advance his own rather unique set of skills. Whether that's through a hunt he's stumbled across, or in a fighting arena he manages, he's on the look out for those who really push at the boundaries of potential.On The Trail
Rumours of dark experimentation and murder have drawn your eye - and strangely, you've come across another prospective enquirer; as Ima'miah appears to chase the same trail of bodies as you.Lone Echo
Those with any sensitivity to aether enough to note the echo in others, will find it in Ima'miah.
BACKGROUND
For a man with over a century of years to his name, Ima’miah’s past is purposefully ambiguous. It is not a topic he’ll speak on, for as far as the man is concerned, it is only the present that serves a purpose.Though his primary business takes place in the neon lit streets of alleys of Alexandria, his demeanor and accent betray him to having not been born of such; nor one of those unfortunate enough to have been caught in the initial appearance of the realm. He is not native to Tural, and makes no claim to be. Best estimations place his origins nearer to Dalmasca - but those are estimations, guesses, at best.Perhaps he were the sort of child to tear translucent wings free of terrified butterflies. He plays with emotion – with fear – as if it were a lute; carefully plucked and pressed to a tune of his own making. That honeyed gaze that will watch with interest as you panic, realising but a moment too late that you’ve entangled yourself in a web of your own making, your own need - desire, even – and the strings are his to puppeteer.Presently, Ima’miah’s businesses are continental. There’s money to be made in gambling, and with the right fighters and venues at his disposal, the Viera stands to accumulate. Though primarily hosted out of Solution Nine, he has been known to extend his ventures to other less-than-reputable establishments across Eorzea: Ul’dah, Ishgard and Limsa Lominsa to name a few.The former being particularly lucrative in the trade of somnus: a highly illegal narcotic that leaves those who imbue it in a reverie of recollective dream. A refined brand that differs from that which comes out of the desert city, Ima’miah’s own variation of the drug is potent; allowing one to lose themselves for hours, or even days at time. Fatalities notwithstanding. There are bumps to the creative process, of course.
