Telios actually only came after another OC of mine. A lalafell named Mei Hua who i played on for most of my ff14 life. I made an alt one day wanting a lizard character and i had just very vague headcanons that he was very quiet and timid. He still spoke then but was very shy. But as I kept developing his story and character, the headcanons kept coming and i got more and more attached to him until today.
