Jun Szeto @ Faerie

Androgynous: They do their best to dress how they like -- neither masculine nor feminine, just what they think is beautiful. How you interpret their performance is, of course, up to you.

Vain: Very particular about their appearance. Rare is the time where they are not perfectly made up and dressed for the occasion.

Polite, almost excessively: Their manners are nigh impeccable, but not in the way someone with a rich upbringing is – every greeting and honorific seems incredibly practiced.

Well-read: Often referencing novels or quoting flowery lines from some manner of book. They may appreciate a new friend who’s also aware of the Eorzean literary scene.

Master artisan: Jun runs a small crafting studio in Ishgard, where they take custom crafting orders for ornamental items like jewelry and clothing. They honed their skills at their previous job – filling leve orders for basic adventuring gear at the Shaded Bower in Gridania. Recently, they apprenticed as a smith in Tuliyollal, so they can also make sturdy, functional weapons and armor.

Enthusiastic home cook: Jun is proficient in most forms of cooking, and specializes in Doman home cuisine. Food is their love language -- if they like you, expect to be fed often.

Hobby generalist: Aside from their career as an independent artisan, Jun has various hobbies, which they are happy to enthuse about to anyone willing to listen. Expect them to discuss their favorite fiction novels, gouache painting (they’re just alright at it), basic conjury (they only know two spells) and more!

Socially awkward: Jun struggles to connect with others naturally and form genuine bonds. They spend a lot of time and effort reading books, practicing their conversation topics in the mirror at home, and mimicking the behavior of more sociable acquaintances… though they often find that gift giving is a better way of expressing how much they care.

Aether deficiency: Jun has always struggled with anything involving aether. They can't use aetherytes, and through brute force has only learned two spells (which they cast poorly and infrequently). Despite this, they still lead a fulfilling life, though they often wish this could change.
