Mint Callington

Exchange of Goods - Mint is a businessman, through and through. A new product to sell? Let him see it. Needing a way to transport goods, whether they're common or black market? He's got the connections. Social engineering his is bread and butter, and his connection web runs deep.

Aetheric Research - Mint wants nothing more than to go back to the First, while that wouldn't be something he'd be open to talking about...It does lead him to continue to analyze Aether. Anyone with knowledge in the subject would be a valuable partner for him to converse with, whether it be for the simple progress of his latest fashion design or life tool, to the actual analysis of his black hole Aether.

High Class - Mint's over his days of struggling in the streets, wasting his life away for gil piece after gil piece. He spares no expense for those closest to him and has no issue flaunting his prestige. While not outwardly arrogant, the moment he has the chance to boast or showcase his status he will. Are you of high class too? A night on the town, high class tea, traveling around Ishgard or seeing new sights. All are welcome to occupy his time.

The Advocacy - Mint has affluence over the politics of this Free Company, choosing to spend his wealth to feel it's going to some sort of a good cause. Looking for a potential job to showcase your skills? Claiming you have some sort of mastery over a trade? ADV is always looking to advance their network, and Mint would be happy to see your talents firsthand.

Information Exchange - Information brokers, courtesans, you name it. It's not free, and boy is it powerful to know the ins and outs of regions. Do you have potential connections to advance his social network for products? Leads on higher quality aetheric materials? New ruins discovered or technological advancements still hidden to the public. Whisper those leads, he'll pay you handsomely and you'll earn an affluent acquaintance.

Market Competition? - Oh, you're stepping on his trade turf. Wrong move. While the Viis looks less-than-threatening, he's not opposed to sellswords and economic chokeholds for any foolish enough to challenge him. Wanting to play with a true tactician? Challenge his markets, he'll slash and burn everything so quick and leave both without gil to gain. He can afford the loss, can you?

Nightlife - Seeing 'The Prince of Gales' out during the nighttime isn't unusual, his business mostly runs itself aside from his technical advancements and personal tailoring requirements. He's wealthy (Bunny Bezos), and he's not opposed to flaunting his wealth. He's been seen with numerous parties but refuses to comment on who he's actually seeing. Try you're luck maybe? Nothing wrong with a little flirting.

From the First!? - You yourself are from the First, or have been there? How? Why? What's it like? Did his sacrifice do anything? Was he remembered? It'll be painful for the Viis, and your character will likely be scorned and hated intially. Again, tread lightly with even bringing up the realm, it's not something Mint is fairly comfortable talking about.

Wild Aether - Did you accidentally touch Mint's earrings? Did you comment on them or simply draw too much attention to them? Wrong move. Aether suppressant is extremely vital to Mint keeping his black hole under control. Anyone who's taking too much interest in his jewelry is a threat, both to Mint and those around him. While he may seem like he doesn't care about the lives of many, he isn't about to go through more heartache caused by his Aether being let loose.
