With a bright smile and an easy laugh, Cain grew up in Kugane.When Cain's father died while his mother was still pregnant, she left the Golmore Jungle seeking a better life for her child, landing herself in Kugane. She did everything in her power to provide for her only child, a kit born blind and which regularly got sick. And while life wasn't easy, Iara made a modest living as a painter, working hard to give him a life with comfort and dignity, but never stopped searching for a means of helping her son.It wasn't until Cain was in his 20s, that they'd find a medication that would help not only his sight, but the aetheric issues his body was born with. The medication helped, Cain was able to see for the first time in his life, along with with his general health seeming to improve as well.However, not only it was expensive to produce, some of its components were illegal, a criminal group whispering sweet promises of help to a desperate mother. Working hard to try to afford a better life for him, she soon found herself drowning in debt with them.Cain wouldn't have it. Doing any work he could to help pay their bills, and his medication. Taking it upon himself the craft of an alchemist so he could learn how to make the especial blend that he needed. By the time he knew enough to really understand the addictive proprieties of it, he couldn't back out.With both Cain and his mother only seeing their debts grow, no matter how desperately he took on and more more jobs, offering both his services, and himself, at anything and everything thrown his way. As long as it'd pay. He'd hide most of his activities from her. Knowing a lot of what he was doing was questionable, or outright illegal, and that she'd have none of it if she knew.One day the Rava came home to find his mother hurt, beaten by debt collectors, for what felt like his fault. A situation that seemed to only be escalating, a hole only getting deeper, because she was trying to provide for him, for his medicine. Cain made a decision.Packing up his clothes, medicine, and alchemical supplies, Cain took every last bit of his money, giving it all to the same people who haunted him, and fled to Eorzea without a coin to his name. If she didn't have to keep paying the expensive costs that Cain created, and with the advance he gave, he could only hope his mother would climb out of that situation.Arriving in a strange land, with a strange language, and strange people, all which he knew almost nothing of. But Cain knew one thing, and that was how to work for coin.

RP Hooks

  • Out for some fun: Cain is always looking for a good time. A good laugh, nice company, new places to go and people to meet. Drinks, a card game, or some bets. The Rava is willing to do almost anything, and out to try everything at least once.

  • The Good stuff: An Alchemist, Cain can arrange medicine, potions, ointments, oils, cosmetics, and more. With minimal questions asked - None, if possible - he doesn't care if it's legal or not, as long as he's getting paid. (His personal favourite is making dyes and inks)

  • Old Debts: If Cain owes you money and you come knocking - He's going to pay you soon, he almost has the money, he swears! Just leave his mother out of it, alright?
