Contents
Basic Info
- The past several years of Y'lyfriel's life have been tumultuous. Since finding her way to the Twelveswood after a fateful voyage, her journey with Rhesh'ir Zhwan and the formation of the Maelstrom Foreign Levy 81st, she has found herself involved in events that she once only thought to read of.
In spite of the grandeur of their adventurers, her personal motivations are quite intimate--she wishes to care for her new family to the best of her ability, and make the realm a safer place for her son. Recent events have turned aside her prior interests in Ancient Allag, though she is an avid scholar of Nymian history. She has a background in botany and naturalist studies, specifically relating to scalekin of the Vylbrand.

Appearance & Personality
- Y'lyfriel prides herself on dressing well, and taking immaculate care of herself. Unless stress or fieldwork has a hold on her, she makes effort to appear respectable and well-dressed. Fond of changing hairstyles, Lyf makes far too many trips to the aesthetician.
Though passionate and often quick to leap to emotional conclusions, she does have a studious intelligence that keeps her focused on whatever task is at hand. Whether it be arcanima, naturalism, or contemporary Eorzean mechanical aptitudes, Lyf endeavours to keep herself busy, and is especially pleased when her work can be put towards keeping her family and her company, the 81st, safe.
Biography
Childhood
- Y'lyfriel is yet unaware of her birthplace; her mother, Y'zanza Behn, and her father, Sikah, brought her to La Noscea, and it is there that she spent the entirety of her youth. The family lived a short distance from the Swiftperech settlement. Her mother made much of the family's living as an artisan weaver of some renown. When Y'lyfriel was only two years of age, her father, an adventurer, failed to return from a particular outing. Y'zanza spoke very little of his occupation or interests during Lyfriel's growing up, but maintained an insistence that Sikah had died while abroad. Shortly after her father disappeared, Lyf's sister, Y'adebh, was born.
- In spite of Sikah's disappearance, the family managed to remain well off. Both Y'lyfriel and Y'adebh were adventurous in spirit, the former finding her freedom in her numerous acquaintances along the La Noscean coast, the latter keeping her head in the clouds---clouds full of adventurers' tales. Neither found themselves in an abundance of trouble, apart from the bumps, bruises, breaks, and heartaches of young lives. Hearing at a distance of Ala Mhigo's plight, and later, the Battle of Silvertear skies, kept them longing to see and experience other lands. Though Y'zanza allowed her daughters a large amount of freedom, they were kept from traveling abroad.
Teenage
- The destruction wrought by Dalamud's fall, and Bahamut's emergence, took thousands of lives. Away on a rotation with a patrolling Yellowjacket squad--an apprenticeship that would prepare her to enter Mealvaan's Gate--Y'lyfriel was away from her family's small home when it was brought to ruin. Breaking from her horrified awe at the spectacle that would forever change Eorzea, she rushed home to find only death--Y'zanza's and Y'adebh's bodies still aflame.
- With the help of what was left of the small community, the dead were laid to rest. For the next three cycles, Lyf struggled to maintain a living for herself as a weaver, but what little her mother had imparted to her was not enough to find her a suitable living.
