Signature Item (s): Some sort of good luck charm that reminds him of his Imperium roots. Background An amateur merchant of Imperium descent, Akanri is a relatively polite and friendly fellow looking to start anew in Elpida. His father was a merchant himself, his mother having passed in childbirth, leaving him an only child in the care of his father. While his father did his best to teach him the ways of the trade as well as item crafting, Akanri was never to good at it despite trying his best. Unfortunately, his father passed due to the complications of old age just a year or two ago, leaving his business in the hands of his son. Akanri set to quickly sell the remaining inventory, putting aside his inheritance and anything he was able to save up to fund his move to Elpida, a place he felt he could start anew and perhaps a new environment to test and find a craft he truly enjoys, one he may actually good at. He is a kind and humble fellow, but that doesn't stop him from a light tease from time to time. He is a firm believer in the circle of life and fate, his father having been a follower of Metus, while he himself appears to take to equal worship of the main five gods. Despite holding a larger amount of faith in religion then the average person, he is not very vocal about it unless prompted. He tends to be quite private, although he doesn't have anything to hide, and aims to be able to live comfortably above all else.
Hello there! A pretty good bio you have there. Before I approve it, would you mind writing at least 1 more paragraph on your character's life on the Mainland (e.g. hobbies, friends, work). Thank you
Apologies for the delay! Here you go- Back on the Mainland, Akanri had few friends that remained into adulthood, if any at all, mostly due to his focus on learning the trades under his father. He has spent most of his life as a teen and beyond doing such, in fact, his lack of expertise in any craft leaving him to work as an assistant for his dad, or to help main or clean the storefront. While for the most part he doesn't mind not having anyone his own age to hang out with, he does sometimes feel a little envious of people who do, even with his role as a passive observer. In terms of hobbies, Akanri enjoys crafting, even despite his lack of skill. He finds enjoyment in playing around with different crafts, but knows mediocre work can not earn him the money he'd need to survive. He also has a natural fascination with the world around him, going as far as to simple observe the people around him for hours on end, also wanting to learn new things- whether that new thing is something as odd as a strangers issues or something as simple as the process behind milling wheat. He also collects things- although this is more just a entertaining hobby for him then anything else.
