What do they think of Garlean technology and their use of ceruleum?
Eis doesn't fully understand it, but he thinks a lot of it is really cool! Not always used for a good purpose (see: war machines), but still, pretty cool!
I think he would especially develop an appreciation for it after spending some time in Garlemald and seeing first-hand all the ways its technology was made to help its people. He never subscribed to the idea that all of Garlemald was bad and violent, and he's always had a passing interest in learning more about the tech there. Smarts are not his forte, but he still likes to know how things work! If only so he can better rig, upgrade, and/or break things!
Also, you can probably make some sick-ass tunes with Garlean tech, which is always a plus for him.

1. What do they do to pass time during long journeys? (caravans, chocobo rides, etc.) 🤗
Eis's go-to for passing time is music. Whether it's singing, strumming his lute, or drumming on the side of a carriage, he can always come up with a tune.
If he's in comfortable company, he also makes a habit of being a nuisance in whatever way he can. What better way to spice things up on a long journey than driving your friend up a wall?

I’m an “I do not like children” person but not an “I hate children” person. I do not want a child. I do not particularly like being in the company of small children. I am not interested in babysitting. I do not think society’s view on procreating being necessary to fulfill one’s life is healthy. But I think kids are people too and they deserve all the resources, time and attention they need to successfully grow. I think the welfare of children is fundamental to society. I smile at babies in public. I try to be sympathetic if a child is having a meltdown in public. I think being cruel to children is one of the worst things a human can do.
This puts me in a strange middle ground because I absolutely cannot get along with the “I love babies, I need to have kids, my kids are my world, having children is sooo beautiful, the world should cater to children always” crowd or the “I think children are like disgusting little rats, I hate them, they’re subhuman” crowd.

Passion really does rock. Don’t be afraid to share your love for those passions to others. If they think you’re just some kind of weirdo for it, then those people might not be worth your time.

Eis Klein
Tumblr media
B A S I C S
NAME: Eis Klein
NICKNAMES: he doesn't have many nicknames because his name is already short and sweet, but his mom often calls him by pet names (including but not limited to: my love, darling, little flower, my sunlight). if you're not his mom and you call him any of these, he will probably punch you.
AGE: 25 (post-EW)
NAMEDAY: 7th Sun of the 2nd Umbral Moon (4/7)
RACE: miqo'te (mixed/clanless)
GENDER: masc. nonbinary (he/they)
ORIENTATION: gay
PROFESSION: adventurer - takes on mostly odd jobs with a side of crafting and gathering
P H Y S I C A L   A S P E C T S
HAIR: pastel blue with navy blue highlights, cut similar to the Styled for Hire hairstyle. he likes to braid sections of his hair and accessorize with flowers, beads, etc.
EYES: candy pink. unlike Seekers and Keepers, his pupils are not restricted and naturally dilate with different light levels.
TATTOOS/SCARS: he has a semicolon tattoo on his left wrist, blue feathered wings on his back, and a few other small tattoos (he has a Lot and boy do I not wanna type all of them out-). he has a prominent X-shaped scar on his left cheek and numerous other scars all over his body, especially his back, torso, and legs. part of their tail is missing, and it's kinked downward near the end.
F A M I L Y
PARENTS: Cyani (mother) and Löwe (father)
SIBLINGS: none
GRANDPARENTS: unknown/deceased
IN-LAWS AND OTHER: Revna (cousin - found family/not blood related)
PETS: they don't have pets, exactly, but more traveling companions that come and go (sort of like the baby opo-opo is to Deryk). their most frequent visitor is Cinnamon, a young red panda they picked up while watching a small group of bards perform in Gridania.
S K I L L S
ABILITIES: combat (all-rounder but most proficient in martial arts, axes, and swords), hunting, carpentry, botany
HOBBIES: exploration, music, sparring, cooking
T R A I T S
MOST POSITIVE TRAIT: his unyielding determination, even in the face of seemingly impossible odds.
MOST NEGATIVE TRAIT: their quick temper and lack of emotional regulation. combined with his heightened sensitivity to dynamis, this is...not ideal.
L I K E S
COLOURS: black, red, pink, orange
SMELLS: rain, citrus (especially lemons), fresh-cut wood
TEXTURES: fur and feathers, wool/woolen yarn, stone, leather
DRINKS: hot cocoa, herbal teas (especially fruit-based teas)
O T H E R   D E T A I L S
SMOKES?: no.
DRINKS?: socially on occasion. he used to be a bit of an alcoholic, so he only drinks around friends anymore and only if he feels safe enough (or desperate enough).
DRUGS?: they'll try just about anything once. but they don't do anything regularly aside from the occasional weed or nip.
MOUNT ISSUANCE: he has a few mounts he can call upon depending on the situation. his chocobo Kwehchi goes with him to towns and on lowkey adventures, but she isn't very well-suited to battle or harsh environments. on more risky adventures, he has his war panther Saber and, if need be, the Regalia replica.
BEEN ARRESTED?: a few times when he was young, though not nearly as many times as he should've been. he's a slippery little bitch.
---
I wasn't tagged, I yoinked this. therefore I will not be tagging specific people. but I will tag YOU, viewer. yoink this for yourself (if you want to).

6. Does Nagisa like bard performances? What's her favorite type of show?
It’s actually one of her (and mine) favorite things about going to super crowded places like Limsa! She enjoys seeing full bands play and will often stay and dance with strangers. Any live performers, any time, she’s down to watch it!

FFXIV ask meme
A short list to think about our characters' relationship with the world around them.
What do they do to pass time during long journeys? (caravans, chocobo rides, etc.)
How good are they at reading a map? How good is their sense of direction?
Are they well informed about the world around them? How do they get their news?
What do they think of the current government of their home? For those who don't have a home anymore, do they have a preferred political system? (monarchy, republic, etc.)
Does the smell of chocobos bother them?
Do they like bard performances? What's their favorite type of shows?
What do they think of Garlean technology and their use of ceruleum?
What do they think of the political power of the WoL? (Alternatively, for WoLs: do they fear being backstabbed eventually by the city-state leaders should they deem the WoL too inconvenient/threatening?)
Do they repair their clothes and furniture themselves?
What advice would they give to people seeking to visit their homeland?
As a courtesy, please send something to the person you're reblogging this from.
