Trick Sparrow

This Hrothgar once had aspirations: to be the best pastel pink maid idol Hrothgar extraordinaire in the world—all to fulfill a promise he never was able to keep. At his defeat, he dropped everything and ran. He wanders, hoping to find a new dream to claim as his own.

The less you know, the better. Probably.

The Hrothgar, the Legend, the Hero

With his trusty sidekick, Superior Overlord Far-reaching In Everymanner aka Sofie, he moseys all over Hydaelyn doing only the Twelve knows what. Foresight was never in his very limited list of abilities. One time, he paid Sofie 1 million gil to scry the future. Trick was told he will suffer great soul-crushing tragedies and the Pink Hrothgar was in awe at the accuracy.

Mercenary For Hire

Yes, he may have a multi-million gil bounty on his head for multiple war crimes and acts against humanity, but somehow he always gets away with it thanks to his flawless disguises in his armoire like a comically bushy mustache and a nice smile. Inquire within.

Odd Jobs Part-timer

He may not be the brightest, the
strongest, the hardest working, or even have any valuable talent to speak of—in retrospect, why did so many clients hire him failure after failure? He drops plates, starts fires, eats all the food, and is a terrible date and awkward in bed. Yet...

Trusty Companion

Boisterous, moody-at-times, whimsical erring on the side of impulsive, and all the red flags aside, he's a friend. He'll listen. He'll stick with you through thick and thin and vows to never abandon anyone who calls out his name because he knows being left behind all too well.

Did you buy all that bullshit? No? I figured as much...

The Real Trick Sparrow

He is a silly, indulgent goofball with no sense of self-awareness and bookkeeping.
He's sooner to fill his stomach than his coffers.
And unlike his purse, his stomach is never empty.

Quote of the Day

"You want advice from me? You'll find no hastier steps to your certain demise, but the journey will be worth your while."

Occupation: Solo Mercenary for Hire. Extensive resume of experience he is embarrassingly hesitant to share. You just gotta believe him. Also Ex-Pastel Pink Maid Idol Hrothgar. A client can remove the "Ex" with enough gil to tempt him.
Alignment: True Neutral. Practical and earnest, despite his head often in the clouds. If confronted with a strong desire, he will charge in with a burning conviction—to a fault.
Likes: Books that make him feel like a friend is telling a story right next to him, warm showers, Ul'dah's nightly fireworks, and that one bard who plays the trumpet longingly in Limsa Lominsa.
Dislikes: Maid work, any work for that matter, that one Lalafel that somehow laughs "Ahaha, hahaha, HOI!" in every single damn town, and Gridania. That place makes him both itchy and sweaty.
Vices: The Golden Saucer. Ocean Fishing. Sweets. Lots of Sweets.
Personality: Crass, rude, and impulsive. Loves to talk, mostly out of his ass. Honest and genuine, to his chagrin, if you somehow make this doofus believe he has friends and you're one of them.
Backstory: "... distraction... injured... hiding... t-t-they went ahead to the flame... left behind... couldn't even cry..." (Only to his most trusted friends will he reveal his past.)

Why, yes, Trick Sparrow is a Final Fantasy IX reference! You're Not alone in the fangirling.

OOC

☆ In an FFIX cutscene when Zidane returns to Lindblum for the first time, he encounters two kids wanting to join Tantalus. To prove themselves, they have to show a member a rare treasure. They show Zidane a pair of trick sparrow wings. My OC is my own treasure I want to show off to a friend for approval, even though they stopped playing the game.

Read the stellar reviews from his many a satisfied client!A drunk Roegadyn tavernmaster raved:
"Ye already got yer pay. Away with you!"A stressed Miqo'te coffee shop and bakery owner exclaimed:
"WE RAN OUT OF FLOUR OF ALL THINGS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HOW COULD HAVE THIS HAPPENED?! OH SWEET NOPHICA ABOVE WITH YOUR ENDLESS BOUNTY, WHERE HAVE MY FAITH STRAYED FROM YOUR BLESSINGS? YOU, THE SLACKJAW PINKY! WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS. FETCH 20 PONZE!"Trick was a mere customer at that cafe, but he was up for the challenge with the bag of coin in paw. Along the way, he got distracted and went home.An elderly Hyur-like shadow with blood dripping down her chin softly hooted:
"I am most gracious for your search, deary. This fresh bottle of innocent maiden essense makes me feel oh so young. Why, I am taken by the memory of my first murder in the springtime of my youth. Oh? You need a reference from me? For as long as I descended onto your star, humanity's written language eluded my ancient understanding. Ohohoho, why don't you write the letter and I will attest to its validity with a marking of my blood."An expressive bard with the gods-given tongue blessed with a fountain of artistry and craft remarked this about Trick's work ethic, professionalism, and drive for success:
"yeh."
