Xheja Rajhera the Voidbound
Note from Xheja's Player! Hey everyone! Until the visual wiki editing option is back, I'm switching to a much simpler wiki format for Xheja so I can update her information, as I've come back from a short RP hiatus and decided to take her character in a somewhat different direction. As such, please bear with me while I work on getting everything in place. In the meantime, if you have any questions about Xheja's character at all, feel free to /tell me in game or send me a PM on the forums! Thanks!
Personality
- Charming. Intelligent. Calculating. Manipulator. These were just a few quick and easy ways to describe what had become of the Keeper's personality. Not long ago, Xheja was a friendly, mild-mannered scholar whose curiosity and desire to learn about the cause of her unique condition drove her to constantly seek out knowledge of the aetheric and arcane. Yet after finally coming face to face with the answers she sought, her personality has undergone a night-and-day change. Gone was the well-meaning woman, replaced with something rather more sinister.
- There was something undeniably predatory about the woman now, from her honeyed words to the way each minute movement seemed to have some calculated purpose. She could easily lie to one's face and act most any part that best suits the situation or her purpose. One could often find her quietly watching crowds of people such as those that gather at the Quicksand, looking as if she were searching for something. When someone or something does catch her eye, she's very intent on getting whatever it is she wants out of the encounter, finding whatever means necessary to manipulate the situation to the desired outcome. Whether that's a promise of gil, knowledge, or even something a little more base, all are tools Xheja uses freely to wrap others around her fingers.

Appearance
- Xheja is a petite Keeper of the Moon, standing at only about five-fulm-two-ilm in height. Her figure was likewise small, though did not lack for obvious feminine curvature. Her skin is soft and a dusky, gray-tinted cinnamon color along with a few lighter, silvery stripe markings around her face. Her hair is long and naturally black, though she has tinted the end of the strands with an aetherically reactive dye of her own making. Where once the dye used to change color based upon the elemental affinity of her aether, it was seemingly now settled on a dark, but vivid purple hue - reflective of the way the Void tainted her, no doubt. Her hair frames a face with rounded cheekbones and a softly pointed chin, home to two large, bright silver eyes, a delicate nose, and plush lips that were almost always curled into either a clever smirk or a bored scowl, depending on the situation. Yet there was one imperfection that she scarcely ever allowed anyone to see: a gruesome, ragged scar at the top of her waist, the remnant of the sword wound that had killed her on the fields of Carteneau all those years ago.
- Her wardrobe was yet another notable aspect of her appearance, given the rather stylish and luxurious manner of it. With the success of her business ventures, Xheja dresses the part of the upper class merchant, firmly believing in the power of appearance in a city as shallow and self-absorbed as Ul'dah. Therefore, she doesn't bother any longer to try and conceal her success. If anything, she now uses them as a way to draw in would-be unsuspecting victims. Designer, custom-tailored clothing and jewelry are the norm for her, as well as cosmetics of her own making. Particularly, when she is out and about, she will rarely be found without a choker necklace of some sort, even if it happens to be hidden. This crystalline jewelry is special in that the gem is possessed of purifying properties. By wearing it, she can cover up the taint of the Void that permeates her aether, giving her a much lower profile in a day and age where there are many others around her that are sensitive to such things. The downside, however, is that the jewelry essentially cuts off the power and ability she draws directly from the Collector, making her magic much less potent and blocking her ability to siphon aether until it is removed.
Combat & Weaponry
- Xheja typically tries to avoid getting herself stuck in combative situations if she can at all help it. She possesses little to no physical strength, and that makes her an easy target if an enemy is allowed to get up close and personal with her. She would much rather try to charm her way out of any fighting, or to manipulate someone else into doing the sword-swinging for her. However, when combat is inevitable, she does have a few select tricks up her sleeve.

Aetheric Condition
- Xheja, as some who are especially sensitive to aether and aetheric anomalies might note, is not exactly 'normal'. Since falling on the fields of Carteneau, she has been afflicted with a unique condition that more or less has bound her aether permanently to the physical realm, exactly as it is. For many years, the Keeper did not know the source of the affliction or how it worked in any great detail. However, in more recent times, she has finally discovered the root of the anomaly and has emerged a changed, corrupted person because of it. Still, the condition results in a few unique traits and needs.

History
- Xheja tends to speak very little on her past in any real details. Though she may provide broken bits and pieces, such as the fact that she once served the Twin Adders or was born in the Shroud, it is highly unlikely that she will reveal aspects of her past such as her death at Carteneau and her subsequent revival. Typically, details are only released when relevant and when there is something to gain from her having done so. As such, details given here are provided as an OOC courtesy for plotting / interest sake, and shouldn't be used ICly without my permission!
Origins
- ■ Born and raised in a Keeper of the Moon tribe deep within the Black Shroud, eldest daughter of matriarch Xhali Rajhera.
- ■ Showed high level of aptitude for conjuration magic very early on, leading to expectations that she would eventually become the next matriarch.
- ■ As the Garlean presence in the Black Shroud grew and Dalamud became more menacing, decided to enlist with Twin Adders, much to the matriach's dismay.
- ■ Her unit mostly held areas of interest, oversaw supply lines, and assisted locals in fortifying their settlements in case of attack and more general tasks.
- ■ Grew close with a thaumaturge also serving in their unit. Once she learned of his more concerning interests in Black Magic and the Void, she convinced him to renounce them.
- ■ Though their unit had seen very little combat up to that point, they were eventually given orders to consolidate with the main host at Carteneau as support.
- ■ Their unit was overrun in the midst of the battle, and Xheja fell in combat when an Imperial swordsman broke their line and thrust his sword up through her chest.
- ■ The thaumaturge she befriended saw her fall, and pulled her from the midst of the fighting. There, he broke his promise to perform a spell, calling Xheja's aether back to the living realm and binding it back to her body.
- ■ When she awoke some time later, the man was gone along with her memories of his identity, leading her to conclude later that he was one of those sent forward in time by Louisoix Leveilleur.
After the Calamity
- ■ PLACEHOLDER.
