Khalji Is a true master of seduction, or so he thinks. This xeala is a true extrovert and thrives when he is infront of people, dancing his heart out. If he is failing flirting with words, then the universal communication of body language is what he goes for next. With that devilish smirk and those golden glittering eyes, he set his sights, and you may fight yourself being his next prey.

BackstoryKhalji grew up in the Steppe, traditional tribal upbringing. He was born into the Qalli tribe. Life growing up was about as normal as it could have been for a tribal Au Ra. Life took a sharp turn though and at a young age he got into an accident, sneaking out at the age of ten and riding a Yol before he was ready, and fell off, nearly ending up dead. The tradition of Yol riding was one that was meant only for warriors coming of age to experience, not a child. When he fell from the bird he crushed his windpipe and after months of healing, he regained his voice but not the ability to sing. So in a tribe with singing being the thing that made them who they were he was ridiculed and bullied relentlessly until he was eighteen and left the tribe and the steppe all together. The words that were said to him and the people that shunned him left a lasting impression on the male, he did not return back to the Steppe and has not seen it since that day.Flying in any form still scares him to the present. He would rather walk than take an airship. But he broke the rules and paid the price. His tribe was not very kind to him and thus he mentally suffered. He took years to try all kinds of different forms of artistic expression with none of them really sticking, though he still enjoys painting. When he found out he was good at dancing, he started to work as an exotic dancer and slowly dipped his toes into being an escort. He was too scared to approach people before he learned how he could use his body and not his voice.

What is he doing now?Khal currently works for an escort lounge in Kugane. He has been able to grow comfortable with himself again and redefined what it was to be a Qalli. He finds comfort in talking to those like him that were socially outcast due to something out of their control. He found somebody, another xeala, that opened up to him, and made him feel happy and he started to fall hard and fast in love, but it wasnt meant to be. He is still recovering from the heartbreak that he endured and is reluctant to attempt getting closer to anyone again out of fear that he is going to be hurt the same way.
