Feature: Chocobokeep

You know almost all there is to know about caring for and training domesticated chocobo, and possess a trained insight into their thoughts and feelings. Knowing this, you are able to direct their actions by speaking, whistling, or chirping a simple command, which they will obey if able.

Suggested Characteristics

A chocobo handler is responsible for caring for and providing services related to chocobos. Some are simply hobbyists, believing the birds to be the realm's most loyal and foremost companions. While the love for this cloudkin is rewarding in its own right, it can be a thankless job for some, who become vulnerable to more selfish and exploitative practices.

1 Compassion. I know these birds would look after me if they could, so I will do the same for them. (Good)

1 The Harbor Herald article titled 'My Little Chocobo' inspired me.

3 I'm often the first thing the hatching chicks see, so I suppose I'm their mother now.

4 My local Grand Company is entrusted with caring for their destrier birds.

5 I inspect all chocobo barding that gets forged, I've heard stories of what faulty barding can lead to.

6 During one Starlight celebration in Gridania, I saw a bird sing with the choir on stage.

d6 Flaw

1 I don't like people, I prefer talking to these birds.

2 I always expect a Choco Kick to the head every time I'm near a bird.

3 I'm very opinionated on how others handle chocobo.

4 Yellow is not my color. I love the birds, but I hate these stupid-looking clothes!

5 I take some of the gysahl greens, han lemons, and valfruit for myself. Pfff who's going to know?

6 The chocobo will be fine, I'll just take a nap in the meantime.

Variant Handler: Tailfeather Hunter

You have chosen to brave the frontier lands of Dravania to hunt and capture wild chocobo, with only the mighty caelumtrees shielding you from the dragons in the skies.

If you decide that your career involves hunting and tracking overtraining, you may choose the Choco Trapper feature below instead of the Chocobokeep feature.
