Codex Locke

Professional Pain in the Ass

About

True to his namesake, Codex "Dex" Locke spends most of his time looking to solve the next big puzzle.Unfortunately for society, this too-smart-for-his-own-good bunny boy is also the definition of mischief. He has developed quite the bad habit of devising his own 'puzzles" -- most of which seem to involve a new (and somehow even more creative) method of separating the rich from their money-- often, for no other reason than just to prove that he can.An accomplished con-artist, skilled thief, and incurable flirt (with both men and women alike,) Dex takes great pride in living life to the fullest, even if that means playing by his own set of rules. Regrettably, he's as impulsive (and reckless) as he is clever, and his quick wit and skill with a blade have been known to get him into as much trouble as they've gotten him out of.Recently, however, lady luck has decided to shine on our renegade bunny boy. Through a chance encounter with a local casino owner, Codex has taken up his first legitimate --well, mostly legitimate-- business venture. With his (admittedly questionable) set of skills, this could turn out to be an opportunity of a lifetime for him... As long as he can behave himself and learn to adjust to life under someone else's rules.---------------"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring"- David Bowie

Hooks

"I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else.."
Codex has a younger sister with a very similar appearance. As far as he knows, she has remained in their childhood home since he left-- a place he has vowed that he will never voluntarily return to.
Once a thief, always a thief
Something of a "reformed" criminal, is he though? Dex still knows his way around the underworld--a secret that he keeps from his new partner.
It's probably pirates
Having spent most of his late teens and early adult years as a member of a crew of pirates lead by a captain known only as "the Emerald of the Sea", Codex is an experienced sailor and has a love of the ocean. Unfortunately, due to the circumstances around his departure, they are no longer among his biggest fans.
Challenge Accepted
Being the cocky little pain-in-the-ass that he is, Codex is very much the type of individual who would run a con or accept a job just to prove that he can (or to stir up a little mischief.)
The Luck is in the Cards
The first unsavory skill that Codex learned was how to cheat at cards. He's a skilled card counter and is exceptional at basic slight-of-hand tricks. He carries a marked deck of cards regularly in case he needs to pad his wallet with a little gil or "read someone's fortune" in a pinch.
By day one way, by night another
Dex has never been one to play by the rules. As much as he loves his 'real job' as an upscale blackjack dealer, he can't help but feel the itch to return to the seedy underworld for a little bit of fun.
I never meant to fall in love with him
Despite his best efforts, what started out as playful teasing with a customer has unintentionally become a full-fledged relationship. Now that he has a home to come home to and a loved one to protect, it has become even more important that he is careful not to piss of the wrong people.

Backstory

Born Ezri Lenskya, Codex spent his early childhood in a fairly typical Veena forest community with his mother and younger sister, Priska. He had a close relationship with both and people often mistook the siblings for twins due to their similar features and the unique bond the two seemed to share.Unfortunately, things all changed when Codex came of age. As was tradition for their community, Codex left their village to train to become a guardian of the forest as soon as it became apparent that he was male, and his happy care-free childhood came to an abrupt end. Lonely and mistreated, Codex only managed to make it a few seasons of training before he decided he'd had enough. He ran away, leaving his forest home for good and vowed never to return.Not yet an adult, and not fully trained in the ways of the Vii forest guardians, Codex immediately struggled to take care of himself after leaving the protection of the forest. Luckily, he was found by a group of adventurers who took him in not long after. He spent the rest of his early years with the eccentric inventor --the brains behind the operation-- and his equally brilliant daughter, a quiet, pretty girl, with long blonde curls named Alice.Unfortunately, a few years later, during an exploratory expedition gone wrong, the trio is separated when the ship they had been traveling on is held hostage by pirates. Those that were deemed fit enough were immediately put to work on the ship, while the rest of the prisoners were dumped at the nearest port--their justification being that they were pirates, not murderers.After a few--very unpleasant-- seasons, Codex manages to successfully increase his rank from 'hostage' to 'crew mate' and finds that a part of him actually enjoys the theif life. Not the fighting, he still hates that--though he does learn to hold his own with a dagger-- but the mental game of it. He learns that he is quite good at it and ends up running several very successful cons in various ports throughout Eorzea.It isn't until a few years later, after a simple pick-pocketing scam gone wrong, he is reunited with (held at gunpoint by) the girl mechanic from his past; she was not left "safe on shore" as he had been lead to believe, but instead had become a machinist for a thieves' guild in order to survive after the death of her father.
She convinces him to ditch the petty thievery of the pirate life and join her and her group --of what are essentially professional con-artists-- for some "real fun".

OUT OF Character

A little bit of OOC info:
Timezone: Central CST (UTC-06:00)
My name’s Fox. I’m a 32 year old genderfluid barista from Texas.
I am a returning player to FFXIV, but it has been years since I’ve played. I’m excited to get back into the game and have really been enjoying the social aspect of it this time around. I completely ignored it the last time I played because I was so busy trying to rush to “finish” the game and get caught up that I didn’t really take the time to actually enjoy it. I’ve been taking the exact opposite approach this time around and just going where the mood takes me and I’ve been having an amazing time doing it. Now, half of the time I’m just vibing, taking a break from the grind of the real world, and just living my best bunny life.Outside of FFXIV, I’m an avid collector of hobbies. Lol. I’m an artist, a D&D nerd, a roller skater, and a bookworm. I also play violin (poorly, lol — it’s something I only picked up very recently) among other things.
