Naushe’s hair is of a dark chestnut color with streaks of warm grey. It’s long, course, and the bangs are quite unruly, constantly trying to slip free and curtain the sides of his face. Naushe is never seen without facial hair-- he prefers to sport a full beard, but often times, a two or three-day-growth spans a few inches down the front of his neck. Additionally, he is known to be a remarkably hairy man, in terms of body hair. His chest, forearms, stomach, and lower abdomen are coated in curled, greying tufts of fuzz.​
Naushe has an incredibly square facial structure, complete with a prominently sharp, strong jawline. His brows are thick, arguably one of the most notable features of his facade upon first glance, and typically hang low over his expressive set of hazel eyes. Between his stare lies a petite, downward-angled nose that is doused in an array of freckles that dash across the cartilage’s bridge, and below that rests his narrow mouth. He's got a fair distance between his nostrils and the cupid's bow of his lips, which is an easily overlooked detail due to his preference regarding facial hair. He is missing his left, upper bicuspid, which is now fitted with a brass replacement.​
Naushe’s skin is surprisingly dark, especially for one living in Ackerland. A quartet of claw-markings reside upon his lower, left jaw line and bite into his goatee, causing no hair to grow where he was grazed. His entire body is riddled with brown-inked tattoos, and his build is rather average, in comparison to most men his age. His shoulders and chest are strong, arguably the strongest part of his body, and he has a decent amount of definition upon his biceps, forearms, and legs-- both thighs and calves. While he’s in reasonable shape-- sans the distinct lack of visible, abdominal muscle-- Naushe is missing his left foot just below the curve of where the knee meets lower leg. It’s finished off by a well-crafted prosthetic.​
Naushe’s voice is highly accented, housing a thick, real-world Irish dialect. He talks unnecessarily fast, which forces others to have to listen carefully to most of what he says as his gravelly tone is low and almost sing-song.​

PERSONALITY

ALIGNMENT: Neutral Good​
⋗ ZODIAC: Taurus // 20 April​
TRAITS:​
⋗ SELFLESS -​
While he considers himself selfish, his actions paint him in a different light. He’s always willing to help others out, perhaps in an attempt to atone for his past mistakes.​
⋗ EXCITABLE -​
Naushe has an acute sense of pride, which can be wounded fairly easily. A few things can set him off straight-away [insults targeting his family, bringing up his alcoholism, or even questioning his capabilities] and once he’s angered, there isn’t much that he won’t do to prove those words otherwise.​
⋗ SYMPATHETIC -​
One of his most noteworthy traits is his ability to show empathy, even when he finds it difficult to choose sides. He can be incredibly kind in most situations.​
⋗ PROTECTIVE -​
There is nothing more important to Naushe than his family. If one of his relatives find themselves in harm’s way, he will do everything in his power to ensure their safety. This trait is not restricted to combative scenarios; it also applies in casual conversation with strangers.​
⋗ INTROVERTED -​
While he’s more than capable of being social, Naushe inherently prefers isolation. The pressures of upholding a public facade grows rather overwhelming over time and he savors any instance where he’s either alone, or in the company of very few.​
LIKES:​
⋗ TRANQUILITY
⋗ COMPETITION
⋗ COUNSELING OTHERS
DISLIKES:​
⋗ GUILT TRIPS
⋗ WORK
⋗ ORGANIZED RELIGION
STRENGTHS:​
⋗ BOXING ABILITY -​
Naushe’s skill in the ring is fairly commendable. Even though he’s growing old, the amount of experience regarding pit-fighting is directly correlated to his advancing age. He’s seen just about everything there is to see, in terms of hand-to-hand; he also knows how to counter most styles, too.​
⋗ ENDURANCE -​
Naushe's body never seems to give out. Though he doesn't pack a considerably powerful punch, he can most certainly endure a barrage of them. Pain doesn't seem to hinder him too greatly in combat-- perhaps it's his fiery temper or his unrelenting sense of pride that keeps him going.​
⋗ EMPATHY -​
Naushe can make just about anyone feel important. He’s an expert at comforting others, often knowing what to say in most situations.​
FLAWS:​
⋗ ADDICTION -​
Naushe is an alcoholic. He struggles with addiction on a daily basis, whiskey having been the root of his problems throughout his past. While he’s still very sick, he can function in his daily duties.​
⋗ POOR VISION -​
Naushe is forty-two. His eyesight isn’t what it used to be, having declined steadily over the course of the past ten years; it’s resulted in rather blurred vision at a distance.​
⋗ EMPATHY -​
Naushe’s empathy is also a weakness. He can be taken advantage of, due to his desire to help those in need; however, once he’s been burned, he’s not keen on giving second chances.​
IDEALS:​
⋗ CHARITY
⋗ CREATIVITY
⋗ LOYALTY
⋗ HONESTY
TROPES:​
Alcoholic

RELATIONSHIPS
MARITAL STATUS: Married​
SEXUALITY: Heterosexual​
PARENTS:​
Jabir Assam [ BIOLOGICAL FATHER; 62 ]​
TRAVELING WITH HIS SOOLERAN KIN. Naushe has never met his biological father.​
Robert Kearney [ STEP-FATHER; 65 ]​
LIVING IN ACKERLAND. Robert raised Naushe as one of his own, inspiring the adopted son to follow in his stepfather's footsteps. While Naushe was heartbroken when he found Emese unfaithful, he recalled his relationship with Robert-- convincing him to stick out his marriage and give Odhrán the same chance that his stepdad gave him.​
Caoimhe Kearney [ BIOLOGICAL MOTHER; 62 ]​
LIVING IN ACKERLAND. Caoimhe always showered Naushe with love, sometimes even favoring him over her daughter, Nula. She taught him everything she knew of The two of them have a very strong bond, one not easily broken.​
SIBLINGS:​
Fionnuala Donoghue [ YOUNGER SISTER; 40 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING. Nula and Naushe are quite close. The two of them spent every waking hour with one another, as they grew up in Ackerland. Despite their differing heritage, the commonalities between the two of them were always infinite from the beginning. Naushe loves her to death.​
Richard Donoghue [ BROTHER IN-LAW; 45 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING. Richard and Naushe never saw eye-to-eye. Their relationship remained irreparable after Naushe learned of the man's abusive nature toward Nula. Even though they have a rocky kinship, Richard still permits his brother in-law to work beneath him at the local sawmill in the Landing.​
SPOUSE // PARTNER:​
Emese Czekeres-Kearney [ WIFE; 43 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING. Emese and Naushe used to be head over heels in love; however, as they grew older, they drifted apart both emotionally and physically. Through the years, they've both experienced hardship-- which, in some cases causes a couple's relationship to flourish-- but due to their similar personalities, this caused them to butt heads even more frequently. Naushe still adores her, but she's come to see him in a different light.​
CHILDREN:​
Yariel Kearney [ DAUGHTER; 25 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING - PORTRAYED BY Osowiec. Yariel was known to be a quiet child, often times keeping to herself. She didn't give much of an opinion, but as she grew older, her voice developed as well. Although she's fairly hard on herself, Naushe finds her to have a reasonable moral compass-- one that he wishes he could follow himself at times.​
Pocán Kearney [ SON; 23 ]​
TRAVELING ABROAD WITH SIGNIFICANT OTHER. Pocán was never considered normal-- and that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. His eccentric nature drew attention in various ways, most times positive, and because of his charismatic disposition, he was known to make friends rather easily. Naushe respects him, which warrants a mutual reverence from his son in return.​
Redmund Kearney [ SON; 23 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING - PORTRAYED BY scyldwite. Redmund proved to be the most independent out of all Naushe's children. He also had an affinity for tattoos and similar artistic avenues, which strengthened the bond between father and son. Naushe affectionately believes Redmund to be disproportionately talented, considering his young age.​
Odhrán Kearney [ ILLEGITIMATE SON; 21 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING. Odhrán typically did as he pleased, much to the chagrin of his parents. As he grew older, he calmed down some, enough that he and his stepfather eventually became close. Naushe sees an enormous amount of Emese in Odhrán, which can be both good and bad, depending on the behavior.​
Gilligan Kearney [ ADOPTED SON; 19 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING - PORTRAYED BY Samwych. Gilligan never gave Naushe any problems when it came to obedience and reliability; however, he made it increasingly difficult on his adoptive parents while staying in Ackerland, of which the poor caparii had no control over. Naushe loves Gill's company, and he'd like to think that the feeling is shared amongst both parties.​
EXTENDED FAMILY:​
Caoileann Donoghue [ NIECE; 24 ]​
LIVING IN ACKERLAND WITH SIGNIFICANT OTHER. Caoileann and Naushe had very little in common, unable to muster anything more than polite smalltalk during family outings. She doesn't hold disdain toward him, but her father has told her enough to make her wary. Naushe actually finds her witty banter entertaining.​
Aindriú Donoghue [ NEPHEW; 22 ]​
TRAVELING ABROAD. Aindriú inherited his father's build, making it easier for him to take on manual tasks. Before he left to set out on his own, he and Naushe worked together at the Donoghue sawmill. Naushe thinks he's got more brawn than brain, but he doesn't dislike him.​
Carrick Donoghue [ NEPHEW; 15 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING - PORTRAYED BY HereticTakao. Carrick was one of the milder Donoghues when it came to temperament, typically opting out of confrontation whenever he saw an opening. Because of his unfavorable relationship with his father, Carrick usually sought out advice from other, older relatives-- Naushe being one of them. Naushe feels obligated to keep an eye on the young boy, considering Richard doesn't always seem willing.
Máirín Donoghue [ NIECE; 11 ]​
LIVING IN STORM'S LANDING. Máirín was also soft-spoken, growing up. She didn't actively engage with the rest of her family, which painted her in an introverted light. In her self-afflicted solitude, she gravitated toward books, ultimately giving her something to discuss with Gilligan on occasion. Naushe appreciates her readiness to accept all species, due to her relationship with his adopted son.​

RESPECTED
TBA.
ADORED
TBA.​
AMIABLE
❂ Leofaren Venna [ GILLIGAN'S FRIEND ]​
PORTRAYED BY Shankster. Leo is difficult to read more times than not; however, he appears to want the best for Naushe's adopted son. Naushe was beside himself with gratitude when Leo mentioned the possibility to replace his amputated leg.​
❂ Kopii [ GILLIGAN'S MENTOR ]​
PORTRAYED BY Omikuji. Kopii is a very positive person. Although, at times, Naushe finds the behavior to be quite naive, he can't help but appreciate the optimism that contrasts with his own world views.​
IMPARTIAL
TBA.​
UNRELIABLE

HISTORY
Naushe was born in Ackerland out of an affair between Jabir Assam and his married lover, Caoimhe Kearney. Her current husband, Robert, whom was crushed by the betrayal, chose not to end their marriage despite her transgression.​
CHILDHOOD [ 0-12 ]
  • His sister, Fionnuala, was born shortly after her elder brother.
  • Naushe showed an early interest in art. He held his first bit of charcoal at three years of age, eventually furthering his hobby as time passed on.
  • When Naushe was eight, he and his sister took a small boat out on the pond nearby their home; however, the small dingy capsized while offshore. Naushe nearly drowned, as his sister was barely able to free herself from beneath the overturned vessel-- let alone aid her brother-- and Robert was left to rescue the waterlogged boy in what was much too close for the stepfather's comfort.
  • While Naushe and his younger sister were very close, they grew apart due to the elder brother's newfound fear regarding bodies of water. She enjoyed fishing, where Naushe furthered his skill in art, safely ashore on dry land.
  • Naushe made various friends, some of whom were interested in the art of combat. In order to keep up, the aspiring pugilist sought out his father for fighting tips.
ADOLESCENCE [ 12-18 ]
  • Robert eagerly took a twelve year old Naushe under his wing, intent on teaching his stepson the in's and out's of hand-to-hand combat.
  • When he wasn't honing his boxing ability, Naushe dedicated time toward the art of tattooing. Kearneys were known for their expertise in the tattooing trade and Robert had faith in the young artist, whom showed promise at an early age.
  • A band of nomadic entertainers rolled into town around the time Naushe turned sixteen, and a handful of them were keen on collecting fresh ink. Robert obliged, and Naushe was able to practice what he had learned on the friendly, willing clients.
  • One of said performers was an Emese Czekeres. Naushe was quite fond of her and the two of them seemed to have a lot in common. They hit it off well and she politely agreed when he suggested a first date.
  • Emese introduced Naushe to the art of dance and he took to it like fish to water. Additionally, the footwork she taught him brought about a new take on fighting in the ring.
  • Additionally, he began to help out at the Donoghue mill, which was owned by his future brother-in-law's family. The effort put towards said mill paid off well enough, so Naushe began to put back funds for a future purchase-- a ring.
EARLY ADULTHOOD [ 18-23 ]
  • Naushe married Emese at age seventeen, shortly after learning that she was with child. Yariel, their baby girl, was born about six months after the wedding.
  • Life proved difficult, but the budding family managed well enough. Nearly two years passed and Emese learned she was pregnant once more. She gave birth to two healthy twin boys, Pocán and Redmund. Naushe was desperate for hours in order to provide for his growing family, so he took on extra work at the mill.
  • Whilst working an early shift, one of the logs rolled free of the pile and essentially crushed Naushe's left foot. The damage done was irreversible and in order to prevent further necrosis up his limb, the foot was amputated a day later. He was twenty at the time.
  • The pain was unmanageable at first, but with the combined forces of both poppy milk and stiff drink, Naushe was able to cope with the physical discomfort. He fell into a sort of dependence to whisky, as it numbed the newly acquired stump, but it also quelled the emotional and mental grief he experienced day to day. Thoughts raced through his mind, regarding his interest in boxing, his affinity for dance, how he would work to support his family, and most importantly-- how Emese would see him.
  • It was then that the married couple began to drift apart. Naushe was unable to afford proper care, depending solely on whisky to numb the pain he experienced on a daily basis. His injury also prevented him from earning coin, which dragged the family far beneath the poverty line. Their financial crisis took a significant toll on their marriage, where Emese sought out emotional support from a family friend.
  • Like clockwork, she fell pregnant again-- this time with an illegitimate bastard, Odhrán.
  • Emese struggled with her infidelity, so much that she and Naushe's marriage began to fall apart at the seams. They fought often and she cried even more frequently than that. Ultimately, she couldn't endure the overwhelming feeling of guilt any longer, considering suicide as an out.
  • Naushe barely thwarted her attempt, arriving just in time to prevent irreversible damage.
ADULTHOOD [ 23-30 ]
  • Because of his dependence on alcohol, Naushe sought out a cheaper alternative to the local pub-- smuggled goods from a traveling caparii family. It was a beneficial, short-term relationship, up until a group of hyper-prejudiced neighbors intercepted an exchange.
  • After a whirlwind of events, the aforementioned goat couple was disposed of, leaving an abandoned caparii child behind. Naushe, beside himself with guilt, took in the toddler and raised the boy-- who informed Naushe of his name, Gilligan-- as his own. Heightened racism from the community soon ensued.
  • By this time, Naushe was well accustomed to his prosthetic and returned to work as a logger once more. The money was good, but he felt obligated to continue taking clients as a tattoo artist for extra income to support his large family. Not to mention, he had no choice but to purchase whisky at full price again.
  • Naushe's health declined, in terms of both mental and emotional, only putting further strain on his marriage and marring relationships with his friends and family. He grew incredibly short-tempered, so much that when a group of locals started to threaten Gill's life, Naushe snapped. During a scuffle with the small group, he ended up inadvertently beating a man to death, with the remaining mob standing witness.
  • The Kearneys packed their bags and departed from town in the cover of night, fleeing to avoid persecution. They arrived in Storm's Landing, hoping that the past was properly left behind them.
LATE ADULTHOOD [ 30-PRESENT ]
  • Naushe took on odd jobs, typically of the manual labor vein, in order to support his family in the Landing. When that didn't pay; however; he reverted to gambling. Pit fights proved to be a reliable income, but he kept that a guarded secret far from his loved ones.
  • In his scant free time, Naushe attempted to build a stronger bond between he and his children-- he offered tips on skills he knew a great deal about. Yariel took to boxing, Odhrán to dance, and Redmund happened to really enjoy art.
  • Because Gilligan possessed an almost entirely different skill set, Naushe reversed the role and assumed the part of student in his adopted son's case. Gilligan taught him about plant life, but it turned out Naushe didn't have the knack for it. Not in the slightest.
  • Naushe realized he was growing old upon realizing that half of his children left the family home in order to pursue their own goals. He didn't mourn their absence, but he did worry for each of them in silence.
  • When the Blight sunk its metaphorical claws into Storm's Landing, Naushe packed up the rest of his family and ensured that the lot of them arrived safely in Linlea. He suffered from severe seasickness, which was to be expected of a man that had been landlocked the majority of his life.
  • He ended up running into Gilligan while in the unfamiliar city, a reunion filled with laughter and a few tears. Naushe promptly agreed to aid in his adopted son's endeavors, willing to do whatever the aspiring mage asked of him when he could.
  • Naushe unexpectedly witnessed a heated bout between his sister and her husband. When he made to intervene, the entire fiasco turned into a violent shouting match involving all three parties. Because he was not one to stand down when he believed he was in the right, Naushe attacked Richard and it only escalated from there. In the end, both he and his brother in law were a bloody, broken mess; however, Naushe certainly got his point across. Richard hadn't laid a hand on Nula since, at least not to Naushe's knowledge.
  • Due to his scuffle with Richard, Naushe wasn't able to accompany the town when they set out to finish off the Blight. He remained home with the remainder of his family.
  • With the Blight taken care of, normalcy was well on its way to being restored; the Kearneys boarded a ship that delivered them back to Storm's Landing, where Naushe secured his old occupation on the docks. Additionally, Nula convinced her husband to permit Naushe's return to the mill.
  • Now, Naushe is working toward saving the coin to start up his tattoo parlor, with Redmund at his side.
