Ellere Valahan

• NAME: Ellere Valahan • AGE: 33 • NAMEDAY: 32nd Sun of the 2nd Astral Moon, 3/31 • RACE: Hyur, Midlander • BUILD: 5 fulms, 5 ilms, 150 ponz • OCCUPATION: Aetheric & Alchemic Doctor • BIRTHPLACE: Sharlayan, the Old World • CURRENT RESIDENCE: Mist, Limsa Lominsa • SEXUALITY: Heterosexual • MARITAL STATUS: Single • GUARDIAN: Thaliak, the Scholar • ALIGNMENT: Neutral Good ELLERE VALAHAN is a rather well-educated and intelligent Hyuran woman, currently working as a doctor from a small clinic she owns in Mist. Originally from Sharlayan, Ellere settled in Eorzea after her 13th summer and found a new home in Limsa Lominsa. Ellere has a love of anything old or rich in story. While she can more often be found with her nose in a book, she has an interest in traveling to the far reaches of Eorzea in search of ruins, relics, and other such things. She dabbles in sewing and cooking, as well as alchemy with most her knowledge stemming from herb usage. Ellere is slightly shorter than most average Midlander women, and while relatively fit, she does tend to keep excess weight around her hips. Ellere maintains a slightly curvy form, slender, but with pronounced hips and thighs. Her mother would often tease that it was a good sign of being a good mother herself one day. Rather pale, Ellere has a naturally creamy white skin. Along her cheeks, shoulders, and arms have a very light dusting of freckles from spending time in the sun, but her fair skin is otherwise unblemished. Her face is slightly rounded and she has soft features with down-turned eyes. Her eyebrows are naturally short, angling above grey-green eyes. Ellere would describe her hair as a handful. Naturally an ashy blonde with a slight curl, her thick hair is the type to tangle easily and readily produce bedhead each morning. Ellere is a well-educated and intelligent individual, though it is not often apparent through outward behavior or mannerisms. She tends to be overly-friendly, respects little in the way of personal space, and can even be a bit crude if given opportunity. Not one to shy away from banter or good-humor, Ellere can hold herself quite well in most social situations. Being a talented healer and her natural care often maker her seem like an overbearing mother or older sister figure. She tends to call people, no matter level of acquaintance, by pet names. Most commonly: sugar, dear, love, and doll, though there are many others. She is also ridiculously romantic, a bit of a daydreamer, and completely obsessed with anything involving love. Being born and raised for most of her early life in Sharlayan, Ellere lacks little in knowledge and experience. She has had her nose in a book most her life, and studied quite a bit in several academies and guilds. While most of her base stems from medical research (including various forms of aetheric healing techniques, herbal medicine, and anatomy), Ellere is also quite knowledgeable concerning history, language and old civilization. • DOCTOR: Ellere has been a private doctor for nearly ten summers now. She runs a small clinic out of the Mist in La Noscea and also makes house calls. While she specializes in aetheric healing techniques, she’s also well-versed in alchemical and herbal remedies, as well as surgery. • ADVENTURER: More recently, Ellere has taken quite a bit of time away from her clinic to pursue outside interests, and the interests of her youth. She can be found alongside a new company of adventurers and hunters of the Void, tending their wounds and aiding them as she can. • SHARLAYAN: While Ellere left the Old World when she was thirteen, she still remembers her home fondly and would not be opposed to contact with others familiar with, or those who lived there before as well. • LIMSAN RESIDENT: Being that Ellere runs a clinic, she’s always in need of supplies or people to collect them. She also frequents the markets and city proper of Limsa quite often. • READER: One of Ellere’s passions is certainly reading (and she has a vast collection consisting of mostly cheesy romance/adventure novels and medical journals). It’d be very unlikely for her to turn down a conversation about one of her favorites. Positive Standing     Neutral Standing     Negative Standing Trusted Romantic Attraction Significant Other Business Uncertain/Puzzled Deceased Enemy/Rival NPC Riordan Valahan Ellere remembers her father as a strict, no-nonsense type of man who expected much from his children. He is a renowned professor at one of Sharlayan's many academies and even worked closely with the Forum for some time. She holds no ill will for the man, as he taught her a great many things that she still carries with her, one being her love of academics and the smell of old books. However, Riordan cut ties with her and her mother once the two departed Sharlayan for Eorzea. She has not heard from him in over twenty years. There is still part of her that sometimes blames him for her mother's death. Ena Valahan Ellere would describe her mother as gentle, yet powerful, as the mighty waters of the Thaliak. Ena was a brilliant woman who had a talent for aetheric manipulation and astromancy, like many of her family before her. The Cadalelle's were well-known in Sharlayan for their talents. While her mother may have been arranged to marry her father, she was a wonderful wife and mother. But Ena was a free-spirit, and after enduring the confines of Sharlayan for too long, she sought travel to Eorzea. An illness would take Ena's life only a few years upon arriving in Limsa Lominsa with Ellere. Brennen Valahan Brennen is Ellere's junior by eight years. When she and her mother left for Eorzea, her father refused that his son be taken as well. She remembers him as a shy and quiet boy, but with a spark of imagination that rivaled her own. She can only assume he is still with her father in Sharlayan as all contact with him was cut off. Tomas 'Fireblood' Thatch A rogueish pirate captain who once stole away Ellere's heart in her youth after the death of her mother. The man promised her the world, Ellere gave him everything, and he took it, sailing away to never be seen again. Ellere remembers him as the man who was her first love, and a man who crushed her heart. Alleaux Lebeau When Ellere met Alleaux, he charmed her with his smirk and intellect quite easily. But even after their marriage, their life was troubled by his ties to former lovers. After not even leaving her a note and going alone to seek revenge on a cult that killed his former partner, Ellere knows the Duskwight is probably dead. She keeps her wedding ring locked away, and rarely speaks of him anymore. Nafifi Nafi An assistant at Ellere's clinic that has been with her for many years. Fifi, as Ellere affectionately calls her, is a no-nonsense Plainsfolk that studied with her in the guild. When she downsized, Fifi offered to at least help mind her appointments, shipments and answer her pearl should she be unavailable. Ruran Vas Ellere met the mysterious masked gentleman at a Starlight gala. He seemed rather awkward and out of place, but she rather enjoyed his company. After he walked her home, she would have been lying if she said she was not the least bit curious to know more about him. And after realizing they both worked for the same company, that wish came true. After nearly a full cycle, Ellere counts him as her closest friend and confidant, and she cares very deeply for him. She worries for him, and how broken he seems. She can't help but have the deep desire to help him, and on more than one occasion she has tended his wounds or stood by his side while he follows his duty. And now, after admitting rather fond feelings for him, she fears she may no longer have the chance to do so. Zaoka Aloka A charming Lalafell Ellere had the pleasure of meeting in some rather unfortunate circumstances after she was attacked in her home. A friend of Ruran's and a fellow doctor, she looks forward to working with him more. • Other active characters: Arshtat Ejinn, Kazha'a Anhsari, Ihzu'to Venha, Tala'li Dakelh & Josephine Gallier • My FFXIV/OOC/Art Tumblr: Hithren • My FFXIV/IC/RP Tumblr: A-Memory-Of Relationship icons done by Ruran Vas.
