Potential Hooks

It's rumored Garrett also practices various forms of unorthodox magic, such as Animancy. This is not advertised for obvious reasons.• Garrett is the proprietor of said business and consortium. Byregot's Ward has grown to be a reputable mercantile of goods and services. It also has its share of secrets.• Garrett's elite agents from the Ward, the Leveswain, are notorious for their efficient, albeit curious, methods when accomplishing various tasks. You may have heard of their exploits in the past, whether from first hand accounts or hearsay.• Either through his connections or some other means unknown, Garrett has an uncanny knack for scouting out talent in various professions and vocations. He has approached freelancers with jobs before meant to challenge the individual... but are highly rewarding if completed successfully.• On the other side of the coin, Garrett also offers his own services to people he would deem good friends or worthwhile clients. From artifice to mercenary work - this Swiss army knife would be happy to take on most jobs.• Garrett is an Immortal Flames veteran from the first war against Garlemald. Those who've been involved in that could have possibly ran into either he or his brother before the Calamity.• Because of his pursuits, Garrett has a collection of records, articles, and journals that pertain to what is deemed malefic science and magic.

Out of Character Information
Long time role-player with roots in Guild Wars 2, Star Wars Galaxies, and several Tabletop RPGs including FATE and D&D. Some more info about me!

• I am always open to collaborative story-telling and open to using various systems (/roll, D&D 5e, Fate Core/ Accel, etc). I do appreciate open communication, and will do my best to maintain channels. I ask my collaborators to do the same as well!• My character is somewhat of an open, blank book that changes dynamically depending on RP outcomes and events. Tutelage, lasting scars, romance, etc., all fair game assuming a dialogue has been started for this. I'm open to both long and short term plotlines. As always, In Character ≠ Out of Character.• Some of the content I write bends lore, but never breaks it. Some of my current plotlines and hooks takes a lot of inspiration from the Fabula Nova Crystallis series and mythos, as well of other media like Stormlight Archives, The Licanius Trilogy, etc. As such, I have the most fun writing high-fantasy esque plotlines, but am happy to collaborate in themes and genres outside of the high-fantasy niche.• I reside in MST, and currently work full time in Healthcare. Playtime and hours will vary, however I am usually available on Discord and can schedule scenes ahead of time. Just bare this in mind if I do not respond to messages immediately.• I'm also available for PVE and PVP. If there's any content you want to run, just ask! I have Tanking, DPS, and Healing Classes available for content.• I run the Free Company and Discord Byregot's Ward, a Med-Heavy FC themed around intrigue, enterprise, adventure, and tropes common in Stormblood and Shadowbringers.

Known History
Garrett Sadova, hailing from a renowned family of crafters in Ul’dah, was destined for prominence long before the 7th Umbral Calamity struck. Alongside his brother, Ramas, Garrett was primed to inherit the family enterprise, Sadova & Co. Their education in artifice—imbuing the mundane with magic through aetherologic engineering—promised them a prosperous future.However, fate had other plans. The Garlean invasion of Eorzea forced the brothers onto the battlefield, serving the Immortal Flames as artisans. Despite assurances of safety, the catastrophic fall of Dalamud turned their world upside down. Amidst a skirmish, disaster struck, and only Garrett emerged from the chaos, bearing the scars of war and the burden of his brother's disappearance.After a period of convalescence in Ul'dah, Garrett vanished, spurred by rumors of Garlean spies and scandalous liaisons. His absence ended months later when he resurfaced with an eclectic band of adventurers: Askel Strausgard, 'Touch'e' Quatay, and Teghan Creithe. This new alliance fueled his quest to unravel his brother's fate, a journey that profoundly transformed him.Garrett's return to Ul'dah marked a new chapter. He reclaimed his legacy at Sadova & Co., transforming it into Byregot's Ward, a name that soon became synonymous with innovation and success in Ul'dah, elevating his status to one of the city's most eligible bachelors. The company's recent relocation to Ishgard's Empyreum has only broadened its horizons and influence.Yet, beneath the veneer of success, murmurs of Byregot's Ward's clandestine endeavors swirl. Accusations of vigilantism, dark sorcery, and the pursuit of forbidden artifacts cast a shadow over Garrett and his covert cadre, the Leveswain. As Byregot's Ward ascends in stature, the mystery surrounding its operations—and Garrett's true motives—continues to deepen, hinting at a narrative far more complex than it appears.
