An independent smith with a tiny shop for his wares within the walls of arid Ul'dah, N'vheo Tia is a good-natured and fun-loving man blessed with wit sharper than any blade he's forged. Though formally he specializes in blacksmithing, he has just as much of an interest in and proficiency with the art of goldsmithing. For fair market rates and with reasonable amounts of negotiation welcomed, he maintains decent success with the shop and business he inherited from his late mentor.
With his friendly but still respectful nature both on and off the clock, he's often able to charm his way into circles even if they have little in common otherwise. Professionally, the Miqo'te has amassed a decent number of contacts in crafting, gathering, and even adventurer-likes. He carries himself with a pride that avoids falling into the trap of arrogance... at least most of the time. Though N'vheo ultimately yearns for a stable life, he spices up his day-to-day with games of chance, a few drinks, and low-stakes thrills.
