Naja Solan

Iron Wolf

As the Field Commander of the Iron Wolves mercenary company, Naja constructs and leads teams of mercenaries and researchers in investigating the strange and unusual. If your character needs someone (or a team), to delve into ruins, explore new lands, investigate a curse, or recover magical relics, Naja may accept your contract.

Botanist

As a registered member of the Botanist's Guild in Gridania, Naja takes the occasional odd job. If your character puts in a request for particular plants, lumber, or other flora of interest, Naja may be the one collecting those items for them. Naja is also part of the Cosmic Exploration initiative, and is open to collaboration on his research on extraterrestrial fungi and flora.

Explorer

Wanderlust runs deep in Naja. After decades of isolation, he's eager to see every malm of the star (and beyond) that he can access. If your character is from a remote area, or can be found wandering the wilds, they may bump into Naja taking field notes on the local flora or attempting to climb up the highest thing he can see.

Florist

Naja is the owner and sole non-mammet employee of the Busy Bee Florist in the Lavender Beds (Balmung Ward 12 plot 46). If your character is searching for floral arrangements, medicinal herbs, rare plants, or need an arrangement for their beau, Naja's store might have what they're looking for.

Foodie & Homecook

There's few things Naja loves more than trying a new food: the stranger the better. His interest in exploring extends to his palate, and he's always willing to try the local delicacy. In addition to eating, Naja also enjoys cooking, and has built up solid home cook skills. If your character frequents restaurants, sells rare ingredients, or is a cook themselves, Naja may end up interacting with them.

Pit Fighter

Eorzea is home to a wide variety of underground fighting rings, and Naja's likely bled on near all of them by now. Spectators and fellow pit-fighters may recognize him from various venues, particularly those that don't have much in the way of rules.

Drug Dealer

If your character frequents some of the more unsavory parts of Ul'dah, or is somewhat familiar with its black market, they may know Naja as someone who sells home-grown psilocybin and moko grass. He doesn't directly advertise this business, but he's also not overly reserved in mentioning it.

Void Pact

Naja has made a pact with a voidsent to gain some aetheric capabilities. Those more sensitive to such aetheric tendencies may notice this, especially if he is using his aether. (Please DM me first before using this as a hook!)
