About

Jancre
Jancre Dronant is a Duskwight Elezen, 26 years old. His notable features are his long ears (even for an Elezen, his ears are over average length), his near-constant scowl, the scar on his face, and his prosthetic right eye.He was previously entirely blind in his right eye, owing to an incident in his childhood involving a knife fight and a complete lack of proper wound care. A black and red robotic prosthetic eye has replaced it, returning his full vision to him. He still has the scar from the old wound, however.He tries to spend as much of his free time as possible with his husband, Soro'zi, or his chocobo, Plufon. He trained Plufon (and Soro'zi's chocobo, Suiz) himself; he will openly confess that he loves chocobos, and though he's had very little formal training in their care, he has a natural affinity for the horsebirds. He tends to treat them more like household pets than he probably should, though, often sneaking them treats and letting them barge past him as they please.
Void Mage & Alchemist
As a thaumaturge, Jancre is well-versed in matters relating to the void. He's used this knowledge to further his own studies into both the thirteenth shard and general aetherology, which he specialises in. He is capable of casting most black magic spells with ease, though he has exchanged his staff for a scythe to bolster his close-range combat skills.Those with abilities or devices that enable them to visualise aether would most likely note that Jancre's leans towards the umbral slightly, influenced by an outside source.He may or may not have been involved with a string of deaths of little-known or otherwise easily-overlooked mages in recent years. At the very least, nobody's openly accused him yet, and he would deny all knowledge if asked.Alchemy is, currently, his sole source of income. He's talented for such a young Elezen, but he has a long way to go before he masters his craft. He's on good terms with the Alchemists' Guild in Ul'dah, and often fills requests for them.


Walker
The blessing of the Echo is not something Jancre is particularly thankful for. In his case, he gets only vague glimpses of another's mind- typically at the most inopportune time for him- and more often than not ends up knocked off his feet by the stabbing pain of the headache it gives him.He's gone so far as to drink heavily in the past to dull the effects of the 'gift', though in recent times he's sworn off alcohol entirely. Usually, this doesn't come up in conversation, but at social gatherings he won't say more than that he "doesn't drink".
Hooks

common
Known Alchemist
Perhaps you're looking for an elixir? If you've placed an order through the Alchemist's Guild, he may well be the one to make it. Alternatively, you might find him at his home, and request something from him there.
Known Thaumaturge
Despite this, it's also common knowledge that he's NOT a member of the Thaumaturge's Guild. If you convey that you don't like the guild yourself, maybe you can convince him to share his knowledge with you?
uncommon
Black Magic practice
Though he's not open about it, it's entirely possible to find out (most likely through the Thaumaturge's Guild) that Jancre practices (or has practiced) black magic. Some people might want to talk to him about that, for many reasons...
Thaumaturge's Guild members
If you're a member of the thaumaturge's guild, you may well have heard his name; his banishment is sometimes used as a warning to any looking to ignore the guild's rules, although the specific rules he broke are unknown. Do you want to hear his side of the story?
rare
Guild banishment details
Those highly ranked in the Thaumaturge's Guild - or those very talented at gathering information - will know more about his banishment, and that it involved an escalation from a simple interest in aether to unauthorised studies on corpses and black magic. You could ask him about it, if you're feeling brave, or maybe you have another reason to bring it up in conversation?
Mage disappearances
Jancre works very hard to make sure nobody connects him to this. If you've somehow figured it out, you'll find it hard to obtain solid evidence against him, and he will flatly deny any accusations. That said... surely he would be less guarded around others involved in such serious crimes...? It may be worth a shot.
Locations
You may run into Jancre in almost any location; he is most often found in La Noscea or Thanalan.
Lately he's been taking occasional breaks from his studies, so you might see him at informal events.
He is almost never found in the Shroud, especially Gridania.
