♢ Background ♢
Ever since he could remember, Dayan has always been leading a nomadic lifestyle together with several other of his race. When he was 4, one of the member of their group fell ill, a mother-to-be. The medicine was expensive, hence after a few treatments, the group decided they should gather the medicine themselves when their money was running low. They traveled far and wide, sometimes risked stopping at dangerous places for a short rest. That day was no different. They made an emergency stop way by a spring too close to Behemoths’ nest to replenish their water supply and allow the exhausted dragons to rest. It was mating season and the beasts were particularly aggressive.   The group was seen as intruders and attacked, Behemoths were fearsome even for Au Ra and their dragons. A few were injured, most chose to escape rather than fight. During the chaos, Dayan was separated from his family when he fell off their mount. His father jumped off to save him while his mother hung back because she had a newborn to protect. Ironically, the beasts saw Dayan more as a play toy than a threat, but his father, who have injured a couple of them, was torn into pieces before the boy’s eyes.

The other Au Ra had no choice but to flee, not wanting to lose another of their member and Dayan was as good as dead, surrounded by so many Behemoths. They toyed with him, sniffed him and kicked him around as if trying to figure out it he was worth eating, then left him alone by the spring when they figured that he was dying.

Thankfully, the commotion attracted the attention of a carriage and its guards who were also intending to get some water from the spring. A Viera woman and her son came out when they saw Dayan, gave him some basic first aid, then rushed him to the nearest town.

While his life was saved, the event have left a permanent damage on his throat where his larynx was injured by strong external force. He could no longer speak louder than a raspy whisper. And even that would cause him great discomfort. He was stranded in Citorine, with a family that wasn’t his, no way to search for his kin, and little to no idea how to communicate with this long eared folks who saved him. He’d stubbornly ran out on his own hoping to find his folks, only to be met with a wide, alien world that he couldn’t communicate with. In the end he’ve agreed to the Vieras to learn reading and writing first before anything else. Yet as time passed, Dayan found joy in learning, and have become someone like a learning partner with Vladimir, the son of the Viera woman who saved him. His search for his family didn’t stop, but it was difficult to find someone who was constantly travelling. Hence in the meantime, he agreed to stay in the mansion as a servant and companion for Vladimir, to repay the deed.

♢ Chommander ♀♢
The black steed was a gift from Vladimir, a very bad joke which wasn’t expected to stick around for long. It was untamed and hardly friendly, yet Dayan have gave it plenty of patience and accompanied it, trying to build some form of communication through gestures. It eventually befriended him but have been unable to carry out his orders. In the end, Vladimir brought in a chocobo trainer to handle the rest, teaching Chommander how to recognise gestures combined with the jingle of bell as various form of orders. She will come running when Dayan blows a special whistle, which was the same as one calling theri Chocobo by the name. Just like her name, Chommander is known to be bossy and doesn’t do well with taking orders from people other than Dayan. Not even Vladimir could control her fully.

♢ Trivia :
- The Vieras have helped him looked for his family, perhaps their words weren’t spread wide enough that they received little to no news of them. Dayan and Vladimir traveled regularly, too, either for vacation or searching for his kin, though they didn’t go very far from Citorine. Now that Zarkon Mine is opened once again, he has plan to visit it soon.
- Since his larynx has been damaged permanently, he couldn’t speak, and will only produce airy noises when he tried to. If he forces it he might be able to pronounce a syllable or two, but it would make him very uncomfortable.
- He was under the tutelage of the family’s butler and head of maids. To this day, Dayan still shudders whenever he recalled their lessons.
- Skilled in bare hands and armed combat. If he is to be labeled a job class, he would probably be somewhere between a Dragoon and a Knight.
- He could never seem to grab the gist of magic casting, otherwise he would have attended Meion Academy with Vladimir.
