==Character==
===General===
John is always at the edge of the goings on in the world. Since he was raised by Hyur, he doesn’t have that clan identity, though he wants to find the clan that he came from. His actually nameday is unknown but was given the date by his huyran sister. He’s quiet and sad, yet there is a weight that he bares on his shoulders, place there by himself.

===Appearance===
John hair is purple, with lighter highlights running through it. Some of the hair falls over his right eye and the back is done in a short braid. Reddish brown eyes gaze more often at the ground, as if he’s trying to not look at anyone. He carries a worn book at his side, yet most can see that is very much cared for. He always has gloves on.

===Personality===
John is quiet, hanging back to keep out of the way, and not to be notice. His bearing can seem overly polite, taking to calling people sir or madam, sometimes even when he’s told otherwise. It takes time to see the laughter that will flash across his face, reveal what John was like as a child. His temper flares up when a person has done something to injure themselves or that could injure others.

==Combat==
===General===
John is an Arcanist, though he hasn’t had much battle experience. His dad is has been trying to get him use to battle, know that John may find himself following too closely to his sister’s footsteps. He is more a healer then a fighter.

==History/Timeline==
Rhag’ra Tayuun had only been a month old when his mother’s cart of goods heading to Ul’dah was attack by an Ixal hunting party. His mother was killed trying to protect him and he would have died as well if not for Thomas and his family coming across the cart. As Thomas used a linkpearl to contact Ul’dah, his 5 year old daughter, Tanya, found the baby under his mother’s body, and then asked her parents if she could name her new brother. Since they had no idea where the baby Miqo’te’s family was, they gladly took the child in.

Tanya was overjoyed at her new brother and in many was a second mother to the little miqo’te. Perhaps that was why she notice that her brother at five would stare into the distance when he would hold something. Thinking that her brother was more dreamer then her, she didn’t give much thought to the matter…that would be a regret that she would take to the grave with her years later.

For young John, the miqo’te kit wasn’t sure of the dreams himself that he would see when he held something in his hand. His parents would smile at the story he told, though others around them thought that the child might not have all of his gils together. As he grew older, the daydreams seem to grow stronger, though he didn’t speak about them now, mostly because he didn’t want his sister to worry about his mental state as she began her training in Gridania as a Conjuer. It would have continue this way if a fever that ran though the Pearl Lane area hadn’t also hit the 10 year old John as well.

What she found when word got back to her about her brothers illness, made her guts twist in dread. What she thought might have been an echo ability was nothing of the sort. It had always been with him, no stare shower starting it up, yet hope when these dreams of the past came from holding an object. She asked her mother for gloves to be given to her, which she then place on his hands. They were found curled up in his bed, his fever broke, and her energy drain. By the end of the month John and Tanya had recovered from that night. During that time, John would steal an old book, a book that seem to have deep magic in it, Tanya telling him that she would research for him. She return to her training, leaving her brother with the reminder, “Keep your gloves on so you don’t have nightmares,” and a promise between the siblings that when John was old enough, they would travel together and find out everything that wanted to know.

Things went back to normal for the Waterstrike family, the time nearing for John to leave Ul’dah and join Tanya on the Adventurer’s path. Plans that ended the day that the battle of Carteneau. The lost of Tanya in that last battle and the world almost ending was a turning point for John. The happy eager teen closed off, the grins turning into small smile, if the other person got one at all. Another five years would pass and John would uphold his end of the promise the two had made so many years ago when word of Limsa Lominsa opening up the Arcanist guild for membership. On his twentieth name day, he gave his goodbyes to his mother and father, taking with him the book that he called Kit and Tanya’s sunstone chocker.

===Echo Memories===

(This is where those that have the echo can see what memories John carries with him if you interact with him. This section will be updates periodical.)

'''Jancis Milburga''', a [[Category:Hyur|midlander hyur]], is an merchant's daughter orphaned in the Twelveswood and forced to come into her own.
==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Appearance''</div>==
Jancis is overall quite plain in her manner of attire and appearance; though she keeps herself kept she does not follow the fashion or trends of higher classes or wear makeup.
Her hands are soft and she'll typically wear gloves to protect them. [[http://imgur.com/a/7x8pw Album of References]]

Jancis has an alto voice range and no vocal training.

'''Beyond what the character actually wears:'''
*Around her neck is a simple chain holding a handmade ring with a lapis lazuli gem in it.
*Has a plain handkerchief of cotton (not always the same one she constantly gives it away).
*Typically has a small book-sized satchel containing basic medical supplies, a map, and a waterskin.
*There is a wand or other natural-wood on her person or in her satchel.

'''Scars:'''
*A knife scar across her cheek done in a traditional design which has stretched and faded as she's come into adulthood. Received as a child.
*A keloid scar with a spider-like style with thin branches on her stomach and on her lower back; gotten from being impaled with a conjured stalagmite from [[Melfice Vainchelon]] in disguise.
*Right shoulder has small jagged scars from the claws and teeth of a possessed imp attack. Received while rescuing [[L'aenoh Tia]] from a dark blood mage.
*Three indented slots on her left side starting at her lower ribs which look like a giant fork stabbed her (which is what happened). Inflicted by [[Augustine Frost]] while under the influence of "Pink Primal" [[Memeli Meli]].
*Left arm has speckled skin coloring from burns and aether damage, a mix caused by [[Jana Ridah]], [[Delial Grimsong]], and fighting Louvel for [[Ja'ren A'lenthin]].

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''General Demeanor''</div>==
Jancis is awkward socially, ranging from blunt questions to over elaborate sentences as if talking in a storybook.
She calls nearly everyone by some kind of title and will avoid saying the name of people she does not care about.

Having a kind heart, Jancis is very patient and forgiving with others. She's happiest when she is feeling useful and is a good follower.
Has a soft spot for children and young animals, but in general she's very 'hands on' touching people on their arms or shoulders and taking their hands to make connection.

Fearless and willing to speak up to bring about understanding and clarification on matters she finds to be wrong, particularly if it is hurting someone.
Defensive of friends and allies, or those she deems in duress, she will stand up in protection and literally block words or physical attempts of harm.

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Combat - Views/Behavior''</div>==
[[File:Mark Crilley Manga Shading.jpg|350px|right]]
*<b>Skills</b>
:*While not very smart in battle, Jancis does not fear it. She will go in and try to support everyone she's an ally with regardless of her own safety.
:*As a conjurer, Jancis is sensitive to the elements and through training has become more sensitive to the aether and magicks around people she's close to, giving her an edge on healing serious conditions at crucial times.
:*She's light of foot and quick to find a place she thinks will not hinder her allies.
:*She is trained in poisons and venoms, taking them herself in small doses to build up an immunity. She will use it as a rudimentary attack by throwing and misting as a distraction.
:*Trained with basics of a shield and staff. Usually does not have both at once and will two-hand whichever she has. Carries a wand and has natural items on her person at all times to form conjuration.

*<b>Weaknesses</b>
:*Jancis is typically too preoccupied watching her allies she fails to watch out for herself and would be an easy target.
:*Her strength and dexterity in a fight is not too keen and she would easily fall in one-on-one battle.
:*Her ability to "read" aether is a novice level, so things that are unnatural or done by an arcanist she cannot undo by the same means. She can do little more than sense the presence of aether.
:*Being a conjurer, she relies on her voice to call out to the elements to assist her. Anything that would hinder that or interrupt her would leave her to rely on physical abilities alone.

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Tendencies''</div>==
[[File:Jancis Milburga 16-bits - by Ilweran zpsregqfop1.gif|right]]
:*Jancis grew up mostly on her own out in the wild of the Shroud. Her habits and words do not follow current culture 100%; she will use odd terms and not understand idioms.
:*Wearing pants her entire childhood, she compensates for typical 'style' by wearing leggings.
:*Apologizes constantly.
:*Tends to be hands-on with people, touching their arm or shoulder, and does not understand the concept of personal space.
:*Gives everyone a title, typically using their first name along with it. Lord, Lady, Master, Sir [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=8054&pid=103830#pid103830 Resource]]

• '''[[A'rho Tia]]''' - A humorous and giving aether user and something of an artist to Jancis. She is easily enchanted and smiling at the man for his witty humor and curious ways he shows care to those around him, particularly his twin brother and L'aenoh. "Master A'rho".<spoiler>
[[File:Arho_wiki_profilepic.png|200px]]<br>
'''Notes'''

*Can manipulate aether into a carbuncle as an extension of himself.
'''Current Goals'''
*Understand why A'rho is Marked by the Mistress. During the fight, A'rho came by and was helping with the wounded at Coralhaus.

Becomign marked himself, he's called everyone affected together to share information and come to a resolution.
*See if he can help with L'aenoh's condition
'''Past Events'''
*Met via Rinilda and spoke in-length at the Grindstone one night about healing and even assisted in smaller wounds.
*Met again and spent a good deal of time together during All Saint's Wake where the man continued to encourage and compliment the conjurer's costume.
:*Won the story contest with the girl and mirror.
*Most of the time he comes around the house, Jancis gets distracted and unknowingly helps the man steal many of the juice boxes L'aenoh keeps at the bar.
*Coming to Leanne's picnic, Jancis aether travels with A'randr and he gets very sick. She tells A'rho who claims that his brother could have died and is furious. She feels very calleous and neglectful for leaving A'randr as he was.
</spoiler>
• '''[[A'randr Tia]]''' - Shy smiling man, Jancis has a strange fondess for the quiet and stoic figure. Finding him quiet and kind with a weird awkward bashfulness, she always tries to talk to him for no particular reason. "Lord A'randr"<spoiler>
[[File:Aran001.png|200px]]<br>
'''Notes'''
*Brother of A'rho
*Has sweaty hands
*Sells tobacco and other smoking novelties.
*Enjoys juice boxes, particularly apple.
'''Current Goals''''
*Apologize and make up for leaving the man in dire pain at Fallgourd
*A'randr found out that A'rho has been marked and asked for a sample of blood to follow-up with, giving to alchemists he knows. Find out what results the man receives.
'''Past Events''''
*Met at the All Saint's Wake party, unable to talk to him with all the commotion and crowd.
*Going to Leanne's picnic, the two travel via aether which leaves A'randr ill. Telling her to go on ahead, Jancis finds out later how bad it affected him.
*Making a leftover eel dinner, Jancis asks Sigurd to make juice which the twins help with. Coming over with surprise cake, A'randr destroys an orange in his hand which Jancis helps clean off while quoting from a book.
:*“If love were a color, it'd be orange. Not because that's a romantic color, but because it's the sweetest. If you want to know how I feel about you, I just made some juice out of it. Grab a glass—a tall one.”
</spoiler>
♠ '''[[Alveo Soulseeker]]''' - Jancis met Alveo while working as a support in the same Free Company and ended up having feelings for the sailor. Once recovered from his life-long ordeal, they confessed their feelings for one another and were to be wed.<spoiler>
'''Past Events'''
*Uponing joining the Harbingers of Dawn company, Jancis got wrapped up in a personal condition of one of the soldiers. By chance missing the worst of his afflicted curse; she ended up trusting Alveo and his companion Rynn.
:*While mostly being forced to be a source of outsider support, Jancis continued to bring aid and deal with the awkward man with a gruff demeanor. She was there when Alveo defeated Illear, freeing himself, and found him to be much more than a cold husk.
*Looking to prove her worth and ease the conscious of her beloved, Jancis joined the Maelstrom as a medic. Unknown to her, this only caused her lover more worry and concern. Her current work has her going along the coastal towns assisting the locals with their ailments and concerns.
*''Al-well that ends well'': After many trips North to find her beloved and assist him in his ordeals and endeavors, Jancis continued to find only traces left behind by the man. Contacting his other friends and mentors, whom had not heard of his ventures nor received word back from him, as well as sending multiple letters she was assisted in the end by another friend who confirmed Alveo was actively receiving her correspondence and was going on his own missions of his own accord. Though heartbroken, she learned to live with his decision and discontinued her trips North or holding out for contact; knowing his indecision before about a life of settling down and his refusal to put her into danger clearly trumped any importance she held on his heart previously.
*Being brave and strong-headed in a rare occasion, Jancis lost her proper demeanor with Sir Filangieri which led to a complicated encounter with the two. Alveo finding out and taking it poorly, Jancis decided in order to "forgive herself" to take up a huge amount of debt to protect Alveo. Jancis was indebted to Lady Tasa.
:*Reuniting with Alveo by chance while working, he convinced her that they could "go home", but the soldier's true intentions were to goad the knight Sir Filangieri into a fight. After being humiliated in front of the others, Jancis was strained with thoughts of giving up on her beloved. The situation was more compounded by his additional apologies and a very intimate offer. Jancis' trust in Alveo has improved dramatically from the sailor's continued efforts to compromise with the stubborn knight.
*Key events including rejoining the Maelstrom, night of the Pumpkin Cafe opening, and Dhemgeim's nameday celebration have solidified Jancis' commitment to Alveo.
*In a show of loyalty and to give Alveo clarity, Jancis has entrusted him with her most precious possession: a silver charm bracelet, infant-sized, with a seashell-shaped charm bearing the engraving "L.F.".
*At Alveo's lack of concern and mix-up that he intended to take on a near suicidal job for a shady mercenary group, she struck him. Anytime this is brought up, Jancis feels very guilty.
*Alveo proposed on the 30th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon, after the Grindstone they traveled to the Sagoii Desert where the two had first realized how much they cared for one another. While Jancis did not grow up knowing such culture of marriage outside of fictional books, she is excited about the title and reacts to it, particularly from Alveo.
*With a surprising change, Alveo has gone North to assist his mentor in an emergency call. Cleaning out their home and resigning from his position with the Coral Sea and the Maelstrom.
*With little word of his departure, Jancis finds his mentor and learns he has no information on his departure nor had insight of it, much as he does not care for the woman.

He left quite an impression on her from his approach and kindness, even taking a particular interest in one of her childish toys. After a particularly crucial fight Jancis has dropped her overly-polite demeanor with the knight which can easily be taken the wrong way. She also reacts acutely to his mannerisms, be them good or bad. She will follow his direction without question. Jancis will refer to him as "Sir Filangieri" strictly. Whereabouts unknown.<spoiler>

:*Getting help from Chuchukepa Hohokepa, Jancis finds out the main ingredient is somnus. Going to Ul'dah, she looks for a means to treat the withdrawal.

:*By using notes gained from a dead alchemist and adding in to the somnus a growing percentage of blood plasma and a purifying catalyst, Jancis was able to create a serum that could wean the person off their addiction and rebuild natural functions. While the serum itself takes a lot of blood and an illegal substance, the conjurer is relieved greatly that L'aenoh is able to recover without pain.
:*While recovering from battling the Leviathan, trouble comes from L'aenoh's room to find that Hnaba is there tied to a chair and beaten half to death. Jancis takes action in an ill-swept attempt to take the woman's life in a merciful and quiet manner (quiet as it can be with her screaming). The woman is kept in Stefan's room while L'aenoh mills over believing that she can deal with the seal on his back.
:*Learning that L'aenoh also has a aether flow problem, due to a arcane seal on his person, can contribute to his problem with healing and recovering from his addiction. A'rho Tia is looking into the seal and its structure. He is making the mistake of hoping Hnaba will shed light on his condition and the reason for it. [Scene]
:*After seeing the condition Hnaba is left in and also the house that L'aenoh and Staelufre have together far from the troubles in the Still Shore, Jancis gets L'aenoh to agree to finding out what he wishes in the next few days, or she will return Hnaba to Gridania.
:*Checking in on Hnaba in her 'prison', Jancis is abhorred to see the filthy and broken condition she is in. Franz Renatus fixed her hands and Jancis takes it on herself to wash up the woman. Chaska Dakwhil and Reginald Ozrik are also present, looking on as Jancis is forced to wash the crying Hnaba. Runes are found on the mattress in blood and removed by Franz.
:*Following days L'aenoh take Hnaba out to question her and find out about the seal on his neck, restricting his aether. Learning of a mentor in Southern Shroud, Hnaba is slain, much to the pain of Chaska and Reginald.
*Offers to take Jancis to the Starlight Ball, which she declines because he confesses he was going to ask Lady Edda first and only asked to make Oscare leave. L'aenoh does not trust the man for his blatant declarations of being Garlean.
*Learning that L'aenoh became part of Staelufre's "fury training", the man was wounded which upsets Jancis greatly. She stays the night to ensure their safety. [[http://i.imgur.com/JR20ZFV.png Scene]]
*Attended L'aenoh's bonding to Staelufre, hearing about a fight. In the end it all turned into word fluff, Jancis confirming it over and over.
*During and after helping X'kohu with corrupted crystals embedded in his body, the man kisses Jancis and tries to hold her. L'aenoh keeps a keen eye on the other miqo'te. Jancis bothers her friend for romance novels, or 'warm books' to help her cope with the lack of love.

♥ '''[[Lan Darklyn]]''' - The sword of the Harbingers and knight figure from the desert, Jancis ran into the man and (by chance) became fond of him. A semi-sad coincidence, Lan looks somewhat like Jancis' lost love, save for the short hair and sapphire eyes. The feelings were more complicated as she learned more of the man's past to nearly match with hyur fostering and training, as well as running into one another from short meetings long before. She nearly sees the man as the success she wanted for herself, and tries to assist the man in subtle ways so his life stays happy and prosperous unlike the 'twin' she fell in love with. "Saint Lan" "Sir Darklyn" "Lan".[[http://i.imgur.com/bPi3GGz.jpg Lan Darklyn]]<spoiler>

*Follow-up on failed assistance with "Lynx". Though the woman was put in Jancis' custody, she failed to remove the foreign aether or persuade the woman to have it removed.
*Update with the status of the Red Ruby Assassins.
:*Telling Lan and Val about assassins she had been following, Jancis was also attacked and needed a safe house to stay in. Lan offered the hidden room behind his office, where she stayed for a fortnight to recover.
'''Past Events'''
*Jancis met early on in her travels and re-met at the auction. To keep the man from being bid on by his subordinate, Jancis gave the highest bid.
*Offered to assist her and the priests of Athlyk in pilgrimage and has continued to have the Harbingers involved, coordinating guards for Halone and having Arrelaine handle Menphina's pilgrimage.

*Leanne is out on a sojourn for a new bow and asked Jancis and Chachanji to watch over her room.
'''Past Events'''

*Bard for pilgrimages to [[Lore:The Twelve|the Twelves' stones]] for Nald'thal, Nophica, and Halone.
*Check in with Leanne about her broken heart and inability to sleep. Sent her out to find Cali's Poppy flowers to make a helpful tea or tincture. The two ended up singing together and sharing some woes about lost love.
*Leanne down more than usual, Sir Gegenji thinks up a surprise party with friends to cheer her up. Jancis brings along a small book with a long poem that reminds her of the bard.
</spoiler>
♥ '''[[Memeli Meli]]''' - One of the Coral Sea, Memeli has a crazy reputation for being a caring bold company kin and a diabolical arcanist of unquestionable power. Jancis usually tolerates the lady's antics and is used as a piece of furniture by her. In case the lalafel tries to either slap or lie to Jancis, she has gotten into the habit of grabbing Meli's hair. Their continued relationship improves and Jancis has found a very soft and supportive spot for the strangely sweet lady. "Lady Meli"<spoiler>
[[File:MemeliMeli.png|200px|right]]
'''Notes'''

*Unknown cosmic aetheric powers lie within.
'''Current Goals'''

*Ask for counsel regarding Virara and this dependance the woman feels to someone she calls 'Master'.
'''Past Events'''
*''Meli the Primal'': After following along with another one of Memeli Meli pranks, many members are sent on a while goose chase for a riddling pantry thief. While "rewarding" Jancis, Meli's kiss leaves an enchantment that makes the conjurer obsess with the lalafel and her wishes.
:*From the serious insistent urging of Jezune Garinthe, Jancis shakes off the spell and is left confused as to what happened.
:*Later on, many others get entranced by Meli's trick and the company is forced to physically fight them to break the enchantment. Memeli gets grounded for her dangerous tricks.
:*In front of the Sultana's area, Jancis defends Memeli in that she did nothing wrong to the Jewel's ruler. Backed up by others of Coral Sea, they all leave.
:*After this ordeal and getting wounded in the transgression, Jancis is quick to pull on Meli's hair if she needs to and does not accept kisses from her.
::*Jancis has three "dash lines" from a lance wound (the lance was shaped like a fork) before of this prank.
*Has been invited to Memeli's room with other ladies for rituals Memeli calls "Slumber Parties". The ritual usually ends up speaking truths of life in the matters of love, eating a lot of sweets, and then falling asleep. [[http://files.enjin.com.s3.amazonaws.com/623462/module_gallery/original/2147469.jpg Scene]]
*Memeli is suffering, sleeping long times and having time lapses in memory. Searching her aether flow, the arcanist's body is flooded with a chaotic ramble of elemental aethers and none with her own distinctive natural mark on any of them. Realizing the woman has supplemented her own powers with random crystals, the fear of her contracting the same curse Dhemgeim had is alleviated. Working with Reinette to help purify the aether flow in Memeli, the condition clears up so the primal can return to her usual activities/schemes.[[http://files.enjin.com.s3.amazonaws.com/623462/module_gallery/original/2205273.jpg Scene]]

After inquires from her on Jancis' safety and her relationship with Alveo, Jancis trusts and feels protected around the ebony lady. "Lady Hornet" to others, or "Hornet" to her.<spoiler>

<font style="color: #AC58FA" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Oscare Iono]]''' - A garish huntsman turned tragic figure, Jancis was really taken from his care and concern over Cici's exhaustion when they met. Jancis blunders in their friendship by dishonoring the man with her attempts to repay him and make him smile. She continues to watch and visit the man, despite how much his rejection upsets her, doing her best as he ends up running off. "Oscare" "Sir Iono"<spoiler>
[[File:Ffxiv_11012014_182920.png|200px|right]]

*Has a rosewood crane he carved, a mechanical toy man that shoots confetti he made, a rare aether-weaved red scarf, a card with the Queen of Diamonds on it, and a hair clip with feathers of a rare bird the man hunted.
'''Current Goals'''
*Reply to Oscare's letter and remark about her 'magic trick'
'''Past Events'''
*Aged Rumor: ''"It's almost like Nophica herself blessed that girl with the power of eternal kindness. If I ever met a gal nicer than her, I think I may just faint."''
*Jancis met Oscare at the Pumpkin Cafe while he was working as a bouncer along side Cici. Jancis was really taken from his care and concern over Cici's exhaustion, offering to walk them back to the city and giving up all his pay for a room at the inn.
:*After meeting that time, Oscare would often come up behind Jancis and cover her eyes, asking her to guess who he was.
:*After sending him a barrel of pears she picked to show gratitude to helping Cici, the man calls for Jancis over the Coral Linkshell. A ton of the company shows up for this meeting which intimidates the man, but Oscare ends up hugging Jancis and thanking her for the pears and gives her a picture book of his family.
*Jancis had gotten involved with a friend's contract to find a thief. Not knowing the ultimate plans, she knows the man has taken an important heirloom of Oscare's. With Alveo agreeing to assist, she took it to pursue the problem and help the tall hunter. After finding out the man who stole the bow is known to Oscare's family, the man was found in a hideout in the Shroud. Oscare and Alveo took on the group and recovered the heirloom ending in a nasty fight. [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=5431&pid=91226#pid91226 Post]]
:*In a journal of family notes and pictures Oscare gave her, Jancis finds that in some of the pictures of Oscare and his dad, Oscare's dad was carrying a simple bow with a small piece of ruby on both ends of the bow. Overall, it looks like a standard longbow, but with gray and yellow stripes. Oscare's dad has the same skintone as Oscare, same purple eyes, and has vivid red hair.
*After the Grindstone contest where Oscare lost control and tried to kill Hornet, Jancis was charged with caring for the man the night after. Able to visit him at the Agents' bar briefly, Jancis noticed the scarring around his eyes and the color of his eyes a startling violet. Her trust in the man dwindles as he continues to fail controlling himself.
:*Oscare's comments over losing his memory with the Warrior Stone and his current mannerisms are recalling memories of another's actions and behavior, only to conflict Jancis all the more.
:*Ran off crying "I'm sorry." Repeatedly. Jancis has written the Iono family, hoping they have some kind of recourse to comforting the hunter.
:*Attempting to get others to assist in the troubles of the highlander, Jancis contacts Oscare's family for advice, the returning message is from Oscare himself in a very warm and confident letter asking to meet up with her.
:*Meeting with him again, Jancis receives a beautiful rosewood crane figurine Oscare carved himself.
:*Weeks after posters are put up around cities for a Starlight Ball, Oscare comes to the Coral household and, after some fiasco with injuries, Oscare manages to ask if Jancis requires an escort to the Ball in a very awkward and nervous manner. The day after he returns apologizing for asking her and, after remarking on her attire, vanishes again.
::*Oscare attempts once again to ask the conjurer to the Ball, who is immediately snubbed by L'aenoh as he quickly debuffs the attempts by the highlander claiming he would escort the woman.
::*At the Ball itself, Oscare avoids Jancis the entire night, despite her attempts to see him and even offered to dance. After the fact she arrives at his quarters to offer and is once again rebuked.
*Oscare hosts a Story Time out in the cliffsides of La Noscea, where Jancis offers out snacks and tells a children's story about Minglo Moving the Mountain. [[http://i.imgur.com/VUm5jzl.jpg Scene]]
:*Oscare drops off a card from his company, the Agents, thanking Jancis and her company for their assistance in a dispute and discord in their own halls.
:*Getting advice from the bard [[Nathan Telluride]], Jancis once again attempts to help soften Oscare's demeanor and bring out the happy man she first met.
:*[[https://soundcloud.com/akirakosemura/light-dance-with-violin Oscare arrives at the Still Shore in a navy blue suit and performs on the violin as a gift to Jancis.]] "I am happy." "That is also a gift." "Maybe I do it for a reason?" [[http://i.imgur.com/N4zg1nT.jpg Scene]]
:*Oscare performs a song at Halone's pilgrimage which touches Jancis. Trying to hide over the impactful words with clapping, she overdoes it sending the man, once again, away.[[http://www.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=9784&pid=140707#pid140707 Scene and Song]]
:*Coming to his quarters afterwards, Jancis is shown a magic trick with cards, and is given the Queen of Diamonds to hold onto while Oscare is in the field on a job.
*[[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=10301&pid=150675#pid150675 Received a poem from Oscare by the Solioquy performed by Ciel.]]
*Overhearing a bit of Oscare and some others at Leanne's party at the Bismarck, more people start coming to Jancis asking how the courtship is coming along and what Oscare is talking about. Trying to approach the man, along side Kale, both of them clam up.
:*At the party before the hunter leaves, he gives her a ruby-colored box. The box itself lovely, inside is a very rare scarf made of aether-imbued silk which always has a warmth. [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=5431&pid=144680#pid144680 Scene and Sketch]]
*Working at the Grindstone, Oscare stops by with his face bruised and beaten. Jancis treats the nose and upper lip despite missing other wounds.[[http://i.imgur.com/DwobiX2.png Scene]]
*Being told she can request his presence 'when she wishes', Jancis invites the highlander to the farmlands in La Noscea to show him a 'magic trick' which is more or less a conjurer training exercise with wind and water. The trick ultimately lures birds to come fly around Oscare in search of seeds. Calling it 'beautiful' he runs off quickly afterward instead of smiling as she hoped.
*Called to the Goblet, Oscare presents her with a little mechanical toy she doesn't really understand beyond its amazing ability to spit out confetti and fanfare. A gift for Little Lady's Day. During so, he confirmed that his actions, gifts, and manner are a show of friendship and not an act of courtship.

By random chance the man continues to come to her for her opinion and now some of her work in dealing with concoctions. More concerned with the man's well-being, Jancis continues to learn and tolerate his extravagant lifestyle to get a glimpse of understanding this man's way of thinking. Very willing to help the man and is still amazed by the amount of detail the man can pay attention to; she cares deeply for the troubles that no one else seems privy to or could even fathom.

*''You Otto Know'': Jancis continues to run into the artist "by chance" and ends up having strange and endearing conversations with. The man's lifestyle is confusing for the conjurer, but she does what she can to help this, overall, good-natured highlander.
:*Jancis is a part-time advisor for the man, trying as she might to make it more as a friendly favor than a paid service.
:*Not finding gil to be overly valuable herself, Jancis continues to turn down the abundance of wealth Otto offers her.
::*In lieu of monetary payment, Otto has gifted her a workspace consisting of a table, chairs, and some tools. He handmade a wardrobe from walnut and other Glade-natural wood and stocked it with a dress and other garments (she uses it for more storage like a pantry as well), and a quilted bed-like fur rug. Many plants as well.
:*In connection with the Sultansworn, Otto asks for Jancis' knowledge and connections with [[Coatleque Crofte]].

She also provides other records of Alveo's activities, proving he has been moving and working beyond need to be away.
:*Though uninterested in the outskirts of Coerthas, Jancis comes to support Otto's fighting ring in comforting fighters and assisting with wounds.
:*Supplies Otto from time to time with a 'medicine' that consists of herbal concentrations of tea to assist the man in sleeping and keeping awake. The orbs are covered in chocolate and are almost more of a placebo as far as how potent the effects are.
:*After the murder of his love, Anna, Jancis hopes to find a way to help the powerful man cope without acting on pure vengeance.
:*Surprised with a luncheon treat, Otto takes Cici and Jancis out for finger sandwiches and pineapple juice on the beach of the Mist after Jancis' ordeal with the warehouse attack. Her body bruised and beaten, he insists she soaks in the shallows while he tells a random story of distraction. [[http://i.imgur.com/rqbJjHA.jpg Scene]]
::*Talking about her own problems, Otto has heard about one of the people who attacked Jancis and how wants to know the other woman's name. Jancis shares what little she knows from Cici, and Otto fills in the other details that it was Jana Ridah among others responsible. [[http://i.imgur.com/1P3qBZH.jpg Scene]]
:*Otto joins the Coral Sea's plight to cease the Leviathan's attack on the coastline and he gets wounded badly. Chaos ensues in the house, leaving Otto to deal with the pain with narcotics and semi-healing. Scarred by the show of weakness and embarrassment that the bruises and wounds would bring to a man of his status, he starts secretly training in lance-work pushing his body to extremes. Finally meeting up with the man, Jancis feels guilty and tries to apologize, but only ends up talking about other 'things of interest' like Leanne's heart and Jancis romantic situation with Z'enath.
::*Doing some simple stretching massage for Otto to help deal with his pain, she continues to look for him in this training so he has time to recover. [[http://i.imgur.com/2JkowNt.jpg Scene]]

She also delights in the many books belonging to the elezen woman. Jancis follows the lady's direction particularly in the welfare and care for the others in the company. "Lady Reinette"<spoiler>
'''Notes'''
*Her right hand is severly burnt from what Jancis knows as a fireplace accident, though it is clear the wound has many layers of old scar tissue and neglect.

Jancis listens to him for his eloquence and ability to haggle/barter any deal as well as his abilities to coerce others. "Master Sigurd" "Sigurd"<spoiler>
[[File:Sigurdrainecourtprofile.jpg|200px|right]]
'''Notes'''
*More muscular that most mages.
*Gets seasick easily, even on simple ferries or calm waters.
*Has a pet coblyn named Cookie, which is very protective of his territory, Sigurd's room.
'''Current Goals'''
*Confront the man on his treatment of Lady Reinette. During induction, Jancis had a chance to speak with Sigurd, encouraging him to not let Reinette be too busy for his company. Asking about it again, he has tried to send the lady cards and gifts of fruit and offers to spend time with her to no reply. Jancis asks Reinette about her quiet behavior, encouraging the woman to at least tell him she needs time.
*Support him after being alienated and despised by the majority of the company.
*Follow-up with him in hoping he can assist with Gwenoline's mark on Jancis. Taking time in the deepest halls of the Ossuary, the man remarkably finds an ancient book talking of a Gwendolyn and her succubus-style abilities.

:*A wall falling on the mysterious tower by Bronze Lake, dubbed the Wanderer's Palace, the group runs across a siege by saragin on a small group of tonberries which somewhat disrupts the groups' goal to find Chachanji's lost brother.
*Got to assist searching for the mysterious Maelstrom officer Derrick Drake which led the two, along with Tausen and Monty, on a whilwind chase that ran into a crazy highlander with a trust in manly muscles. Surprisingly, Sigurd was no slouch and was forced to flex to earn enough reputation to continue the search.
*During the terrible ordeal of trying to find a cure for Lady Dhemgeim's condition, a spell is used in quick timing which fails, taking the woman's life. Blamed for the death, Sigurd is put on trial for disobeying a direct order. Viewing everyone's pain and anger being directed at the mage as a means to making him a scapegoat for the numerous complications, Jancis defends the man bringing up the moral obligation he had to at least attempt to save the dying First Mate.
</spoiler>
♦ '''[[Staelufre Lysmerl]]''' - The wild lady and namesake of the Coral Sea's home. Over time Jancis has grown grateful and closer to the Staelufre after the ordeals her lover and the advice they have given one another. Admires her initiative and bravery to make life better for everyone around her. Does not agree with her ways of handling problems, particular for her violent nature. "Lady Staelufre"<spoiler>

</spoiler>
♠ '''[[Tasa Rhyzul]]''' - The hardened warrior with a subtle softer side, Jancis met Tasa while preparing with the company to save their leader. Despite Tasa's brash demeanor, she is a wise woman with a lot of heart and patience for the less experienced and has earned quite a bit of Jancis' respect. She is technically the warrior's indentured servant as she pays back a debt and is bidden to comply with any requests Tasa makes, though the lady does not enforce it. Believed dead.<spoiler>
[[File:Tasapic.png|200px|right]]
'''Past Events'''
*Meeting the warrior, Tasa becomes a love and confident of Cici, and Jancis comes along on different training and rituals between the two including sparring with Sir Filangieri, soaking at the hot springs, and drinking endeavors.
*Looking to relieve Alveo of all the debt he has accrued, Tasa agrees to repay the majority of it from her vast amount of wealth. Jancis feels a need to repay Lady Tasa for her generosity and kindness. Convinced the warrior isn't actually pushing for reimbursement, she looks for other ways to be loyal and giving.
:*After Lady Tasa effectively "proposed" to Jancis, the conjurer feels that she's not obligated to help the warrior out of a gil contract and more to be kind in general. Also, Jancis encouraged her to talk to Cici about their relationship. Tasa took her up on the advice, effectively moving from romantic attraction to more platonic.
</spoiler>
♥ '''[[Tausenadel Geispyrsyn]]''' - Sailor in Coral Sea with a jovial soul and a knack for cooking, Jancis revers the man for his manly expression of compassion and his ways of dealing with bad situations under pressure. One of the leaders Jancis will take seriously. Considering all that has happened, Jancis tries to do whatever will make him comfortable, but is fairly sure his heart and spirit went to sea with his dead wife. "Tausen"<spoiler>
[[File:Tau-Wiki-Ava.jpg|200px|right]]

*Father was a servant in Ishgard, but was swept away to a life at sea at a very young age.

'''Past Events'''
*Jancis met him during his grand return from overhearing his story of living through the temptations from Garuda herself.
*Received a pet coblyn, which is something of a managable runt, for telling a story during his campfire time together.
*Living together in the Coral house, Jancis has been fed and even cared for after a slavery ruse gone wrong, staying on Tausen's cot for the night after killing a man for attempting to touch Lady Reinette.
*Worked with Tausen along with fellow company members Naga and Guil. The most reliable of the party, they find out that Hnaba has been misleading them the entire time and in a grueling fight barely make it out with L'aenoh still alive.
:*Later on when Hnaba is brought by force to the Coral house, despite Jancis' protests, the conjurer is injured trying to give the wicked woman peace. Tausen follows Jancis to her room and tries to console her while also rebute the old miqo'te's nonsense rambling with the problem of bringing trouble to the company's own walls.
*With cunning knowledge, Tausen is one of the few to figure out Memeli's clues to recovering all the food in the Coral pantry from her hijinks. With the reward of a kiss, Dhemgeim, Tausenadel, and Jancis all succumb to Memeli's 'pink tempering'. He's one of the first to recover from the lalafel's whims.
*Attended the wedding of Dhemgeim and Tausenadel, which filled the entire Sanctum of the Twelve and celebrations lasted long into the night.
*Mocked in a story written by Chaska, Jancis looks to get an apology for Tausenaden for being a victim in the obvious attack on herself. Finding out that Jancis has made a terrible mistake and Chaska has no idea about the story itself. She still does not know who tried to humiliate Tausen.
*Attended a Turnsday celebration that Tausen was at, helping the man leave when a drunk lady was starting to hang off the man.[[http://i.imgur.com/BEq3OhL.jpg Scene]]
*After Lady Dhemgeim's death, she tried to help the man recover by failed and has doubts the man will return from his sojourn to the north truly, only visiting now and then instead. [[http://i.imgur.com/uhUmnCa.jpg Scene]]

[[File:DA_tier.jpg|200px|right]]
'''Notes'''
*Close to J'azhar
'''Current Goals'''
*''Dance of the Red Lotus'': Jancis receives a curious red stone at a Valentoine present from an curious group. Little did she know it was for a vile purpose with Sir Vashir's life hanging in the balance.
:*A small crimson gemstone, flat and about the size of Jancis' palm, arrives in the mail. The symbol of a Crane is somehow carved within it. Attached is a letter written on fresh parchment in clear neat script: ''Dearest friend, In the spirit of the newest holiday, we are distributing blessings of prosperity to all. Please accept this gemstone and think of it as a token of good fortune. -- Sisters of the Red Lotus --''
::*The aether within the gem is very subtle. It almost seems to trace along her own with feather-light touches, but doesn't take or steal energy. It is not entirely innocuous however. Ethereal strands of aether from countless outside sources in all directions funnel towards the red gem. They all trace along your own, almost like an exploratory caress, before moving like a river to some distant location. The gem is using Jancis as a focus. And while it does not absorb her aether - it is certainly using some aspect of it for some unknown purpose.
:*Telling Lady Leanne about the curious stone she received, Leanne is surprised and ends up having one of her own, the Harp. She warns Jancis about the subtle convincing voices that come from the stone and how she cannot bear to leave it.
:*Following up on this with Tiergan later on, she finds out more from Staelufre on the docks of the Mist, and agrees to help close the lotus that is slowly draining the man's aether away.
:*Sharing with Living Ember because of a cake wish the lady made, the two agree to practice testing Jancis' ability to follow the aether trails to find more of the people involved with the lotus to close the petals.

♥ '''[[Val Nunh]]''' - A uncooth fighter, Jancis met Val while she was being evaluated to study under the Harbingers. Catching her attention with the nickname "Milly", Jancis has built up a respect for the miqo'te for his realistic and kind-hearted views as well as his honestly in all matters.

*Visiting one another in the Mist to return something of Aya's, the two have time to catch up with one another where Jancis awkwardly asks for advice concerning tails and fighting.
*Date Auction before Starlight. Seeing Val up on stage to be pawned off to anyone, Jancis takes on debt to win. She brushes off his offer to pay her back.
:*Overwhelmed by another man who paid an exorbitant amount of gil for Val at a Ladies' Day auction, Jancis fails to continue the tradition.

:*Reached out to Jancis more for emotional support, growing closer to the woman to hug and show fond kisses. She latered turned down his generous offer to teach her more about love.

♠ '''[[Z'enath Vashyr]]''' - A Free Paladin of Ul'dah and accomplished swordsman. Has a smile that always catches her off-guard. Jancis would ask for his help and wrote him often; struggling with the amount of attention and reverence he gave her. Coming to care and love the man deeply, she will often look sad and longing at random times after being reminded of his absence. Believed in hiding and incognito to find assassins linked to his past or killed by them. His loss resulted in Jancis dealing with a long recovery and lack of desire in many respects. [[http://imgur.com/a/Azdqa#0 Random images of Z'enath and Jancis]].<spoiler>

*''His Name Was Z'enath'': Remembered from her past, Jancis is reunited the who takes her life into a new path and whose departure leaves her waiting.

His eagerness to speak to her and find out who she was after a simple "hello" blossomed into reuniting with one of the first people Jancis assisted after her isolation in the Shroud. Z'enath nearly lost his eye in preventing a drunken scuffle between two other Wood Wailers that she was able to heal and restore in time. Continuing their correspondence, the two piece together their memories and trade shows of gratitude to one another.
:*After meeting, Jancis offers to assist Z'enath in a job he took on from a group of ruffian bandits that were laying waste to small hovels. Though she acts as little more than bait to the bandits, she catches a glimpse of the paladin's abilities and control over conjuration aether. The two rest in Quarrymill overnight as Wood Wailers handle the mess the bandits left behind. Returning to Gridania, Jancis proves she still knows how to climb a tree by... climbing a tree.

:*Out running errands in the Shroud, Z'enath confesses to her that he has a task to accomplish alone and that he might not return. Jancis waits the days he claims to be gone realizing a deep worry and concern for the man. Missing him fervently, she continues to check in with the Flames if he has contacted them. Considering the ordeal she had with her lost love, she is coming to realize how intense her concern and care for the knight is.
::*Couple days after the masquerade party, Jancis finds Z'enath waiting for her on the docks of the Mist.

::*Asked to a dinner where they can talk, the knight explains a bit more of his childhood activities and his foster father, "his caretaker", and also find out more about his interests and changes of heart, overcome by his admittance to the "fascination" he has found in the conjurer. [[http://i.imgur.com/aZW8fO4.jpg Scene]]
::*Returning to Limsa, Jancis is invited to an abandoned house that is now endowed to Z'enath. His childhood home and left closed for a couple years, Jancis visits it often to help with cleaning and repairs to rebuild a better life for Z'enath that is not based solely on revenge.

Has close remember-able connection with the 'Lost Warriors of Light' who he's willing to sacrifice life for to rescue. Jancis greatly admires the man for his self-less behavior and the passion he shows for all the things he takes on. She loves listening to any story she manages to catch from the man, particularly about his family, and the way his entire body will turn red with bashful or frustrated thoughts. "Sir Evans"<spoiler>

:*Randomly running into Cici speaking with Sir Evans, the gladiator asks Jancis to help him pick out some clothing for the upcoming Starlight Ball. After many bells and watching the man put on a random assortment of clothes the two manage to find something deemed appropriate for the gala. The entire time, Jancis finds the man a big awe-inspiring for having a freedom from such cultural boundaries but accepting of them at the same time, listening to his stories of his large family and their Feastday practices, and the reason for all this work is to give an unknown woman at the time the night of her life before he leaves. [[http://i.imgur.com/HemTowO.jpg Scene]]
::*A distress call goes out on the Red Wings' linkpearl and Zachary bolts off, beckoning Jancis to follow in his finery, to find [[Erik Mynhier]] cursed by a mysterious time magic returning the older paladin to his youthful mind and appearance. At this time, to prove himself, Erik tells a secret truth that the woman Zachary is working so hard for is [[Siha Xinkei]] "You're in love with my sister Siha." [[http://i.imgur.com/Mrou6rU.jpg Scene]]
::*On other visits to Cici, Jancis continues to run into Zachary getting help from the lady knight, including dance lessons and an exclamation to spar with her to prove his worth.
::*After listening, Zachary explains he has had dreams of the missing warriors from the Calamity and believes he can find them in the void. This only worries and upsets Jancis, especially since he has so much family that a gamble of himself is too high of a stake, but her concerns are quelled by the man's resolve. [[http://i.imgur.com/CLjOFpD.jpg Scene]]
:*The night of the Starlight Ball arrives, only to find that Siha is escorted by another man for the night. Giving some words of encouragement, Jancis manages to persuade Zachary to at least dance with the lady of his affection and be honest with her.
::*Despite other fine garments available for the occasion made available a shops closer to the ball than before, the gladiator still wears the items Jancis purchased before much to her surprise.
::*Later in the evening, Zachary gives Jancis a rest from hosting and they friends dance together. The conjurer fails in an opportunity to help the man have the dance he actually sought, even preparing to sing a song in particular for the occasion.

[[File:QIvPuyu.jpg|225px|right]]
Jancis Milburga was born as Lleuedwyn Fishcot, daughter of a middle-class merchant family. The Fishcots were known for their ability to export fish and were a successful travelling merchants. Misfortune came upon them on a trade route in the northern part of the Twelveswood; their caravan was overrun by scouting soldiers looking for monks from Ala Mhigo.

The Rest of the family murdered in the heretic hunt, the toddler Lleuedwyn was left to die in the woods. The soldiers had not been far off, refugees from Ala Mhigo as supporters of the monks escaped before persecution had been near the caravan. Coming to salvage what was left, they found Lleuedwyn and kept her as an asset to survive. Hiding out in the dawn of war, they found a secluded cavern deep in the Shroud protected by the Elements and the Woodswrath because they were caring for a child of the woods.

The highlanders were known as "Guardian" and "Shaman Milburga". Lleuedwyn was referred to strictly as "Child" and taught basics of survival, given books, and even taken into close villages with a mask and large clothing. She was mostly secluded from interacting with others and learned most of what she knew in the world from books or overhearing her two "protectors". As she grew into adolescence Shaman Milburga began to teach the child how to feel and understand the elements; partly to continue their protected place in the woods but also as a means for the girl to take care of herself later on in life.

From one of the many books Jancis picked out her own name and became more restless with the lack of interaction that she had so often read about. Over time she became more aware of her situation, the fate of her parents, and a limited recollection that she was an orphan. She became more adventurous and gathered items from her 'secret outings'. Caught on several outings, Guardian decided their time was up in the seclusion and the war had left more refugees around Gridania.

Giving her some supplies, Jancis was left out on the road with instructions to find the city and appeal to the generosity of the Conjurer's Guild. For about five years she worked for room and board while studying the art of conjuring and is now at the point to explore the world and build her future.<br>

:*♪The way that you love dear, the fate of the world you leave behind ♪ A way to the future, making a moment built to last ♪ You want to love, well now's your chance ♪ "To me, Jancis is someone full of opposites. She is strong, and gentle. She is withdrawn, but extroverted. There is so much honesty within her, but she's mysterious in her quiet nature. The clearest thing I've ever seen about Jancis is how she loves. She loves everyone, good and bad, because they are people and to her that is the most important of all the things. Jancis is someone who wears her heart on her sleeve, and is strong enough not to let it get broken by the world. The slow but up-beat tune of this song suits her to me. I love the way it goes up and down, because I feel Jancis must have had a lot of hardships in her life. But overall, this song is full of hope."

Tiergan was seven when the Empire devastated Ala Mhigo - sparking the beginning of a life marred by violence, savage fighting pits, drugs, and chaos. His parents were slain trying to defend their home and he was separated from his elder sister, Lurial, when slavers captured him along with several other Ala Mhigan refugees fleeing from the region.

Now as an escaped gladiator-slave, Tiergan takes various jobs as a mercenary while slowly and methodically working to destroy his former-master's sprawling empire. For without facing the past - can a man truly be free?

|}

<br/>With numerous scars running across his flesh like a latticework and a body swathed in a mix of plate, chain, and leather - Tiergan looks every bit the gladiator he once was.

He is tall for a miqo'te, standing at 5 fulms 8 ilms with broad shoulders and a thick, heavily-muscled frame. His skin is a golden bronze color further deepened by time in the sun - the richness of it marred by various scars of many types. His hair is a stark white, carelessly cut and styled without much regard to appearance. One need only to glance at the male to realise Tiergan places far more value on his clothing and possessions being functional then beautiful.

The male typically maintains a rigid, quiet, but subtly aggressive posture, his frost-blue gaze fierce and cold. He rarely seems relaxed and has an air about him like a coeurl forced into a corner - tensed, angry, and his eyes fixed upon any and all potential danger.

===<div style="background:#444363; font-size:30px; color:#FFFFFF">Behavior and Personality</div> ===

Around strangers, Tiergan strives to carry himself in a calm, somewhat stoic manner, keeping his thoughts and emotions close to the vest while watching closely for the behavior of others. However, he is easily swept up by anger, passion, and impulsiveness, often acting first and regretting later unless it is something he meticulously plans for. A lifetime of deceit, greed, and trickery has left the miqo'te wary and mistrustful of those around him and he struggles to be at peace when not alone. With friends and allies, the miqo'te has more difficulty concealing his emotions. The closer one becomes to him, the easier he is to read, transforming the mercenary from a cold, stand-offish figure to something of an open book.

Outside of combat, close contact of any kind sometimes triggers intense discomfort if the miqo'te is not expecting it. He maintains a respectful distance from others and only draws closer in a way that is obvious and offers plenty of time for the other to stop his approach if they feel threatened. Tiergan avoids speaking about his past history whenever possible, except that he was a refugee from Ala Mhigo, and tends not to pry into the history of others. Privately, Tiergan yearns for nothing more then something resembling a family or being with a group of people he can fully rely on. However, the very idea of letting down his guard and extending his trust to a large number of people makes him feel so exposed and vulnerable that he avoids doing so at all costs.

Though Tiergan believes on some level that the Twelve exist, he does not actively worship any of them save for Rhalgr, who he seems to pay respect to mainly in remembrance of the nation that had once been his home. He firmly believes everyone is in control of their own lives and can forge a different path whenever they so choose. He finds the concept of Fate abhorrent, particularly because it would mean much of his life's suffering was somehow destined.

==<div style="background:#444363; font-size:30px; color:#FFFFFF">Combat</div>==
As a gladiator, Tiergan was known for throwing himself into battle with a blade in his right hand and a steel-gauntlet in his left. He preferred close-quarters combat and liked going on the offensive right from the start, moving in fast and aggressive with the hope of leaving precious little time for his adversary to guard or parry. He pressed hard, testing his opponent's defenses until he found blood and weakness. He dressed light - armoring only certain parts of his body while keeping much of the rest exposed - though whether this was due to some sort of strategy to help him move more swiftly or because he was forced to garb himself in that manner is unclear.

In current times, the miqo'te's fighting style has shifted slightly. Though he still mainly relies on speed and aggression to carve his way to victory, the mercenary is now often seen carrying a shield and - especially when fighting alongside others - tends to engage in battles from a more cautious, defense-minded approach. He is heavily armored, the plate, chain, and leather covering up most of his body (and subsequently, most of his scars.)

Casting his shield to the side is often a sign that the miqo'te has, in a sense, shifted back to his old ways and intends to seek blood in any way he can regardless of any damage to himself.

His greatest weakness is fighting ranged combatants that are able to keep him from closing the distance. He especially loathes fighting spell-casters of any kind and often rushes to get in close as soon as possible when facing one.

==<div style="background:#444363; font-size:30px; color:#FFFFFF">Occupation, Skills, and Pastimes</div>==
Tiergan often describes himself as a mercenary, usually favoring jobs geared more towards combat such as escort missions, guarding people of interest, defending towns, or participating in all out attacks against bandit camps. He avoids jobs that may bring him too close to working for members of Ul'dah's dark underbelly and outright refuses missions that force him to subjugate the poor, the innocent, or the people of Little Ala Mhigo.

The miqo'te is a member of the Immortal Flames' Free Brigade. However, his name on any official documentation would come up as V'rahn Tia.

=== Affiliations ===

Immortal Flames Free Brigade<br>
Ul'dah Adventurer's Guild

=== Family ===

Tiergan was born into a life of poverty. However, most of his memories of that time were happy ones due to his parents shielding their children from the insanity and chaos caused by Ala Mhigo's King of Ruin.

<br/>'''Father:''' V'rahn Nunh ''(deceased)'' - Seeker of the Sun - Formerly a Tia that had grown tired with his life in his tribe. The scarlet haired male left to forge a path of his own and ended up in Ala Mhigo where he met his mate, Siha. He took on the last name 'Nunh' after his children were born as a cheeky way of showing he now had a 'tribe'.

'''Mother:''' Siha Ashir ''(deceased)'' - Keeper of the Moon - Similarly to V'rahn, Siha had left her tribe to experience the world outside of the usual traditions of Moon Keeper life and ended up in Ala Mhigo where she met and settled with her mate. They were both slain attempting to protect their children in the midst of the rebellion and the Garlean advance on Ala Mhigo.

'''Aunt:''' V'ira Tarja ''(deceased)'' - Seeker of the Sun - V'rahn's fiery sister. She left their tribe alongside V'rahn, eager to experience the world outside of its confines, and traveled with him to Ala Mhigo.

'''Uncle:''' C'aseen the Poet ''(deceased)'' - Seeker of the Sun - A monk in the ranks of the Fists of Rhalgr who yearned for unmatched power in order to defend his way of life unopposed. He fell madly in love with V'ira and would spend nights singing ballads to her, not realising she was fighting feelings for him. Eventually they would come together and sire a red-haired boy who V'ira named Vailyx.

'''Sister: [[Lurial Vashir]]''' - Both Tiergan and Lurial were given more Hyur-sounding names to help them fit in more easily amongst the mostly Hyuran population. Their last name is a combination of Siha's family name and Rahn's tribe. Lurial is an information broker by trade, based in Ul'dah and often watches out for her brother even if he does not always notice.

'''Cousin: [[Vailyx the Swifttail]]''' ''(MIA)'' - Seeker of the Sun - As children, Vailyx, Tiergan, and Lurial were a cheerful, rambunctious trio that were constantly playing together and occasionally getting into all manner of trouble whenever Vailyx came up with a clever plan. As he was the oldest of the group, Vailyx often was protective of his younger siblings and young Tiergan looked up to Vailyx deeply, seeing him as both his best friend and role model. The young miqo'te attempted to emulate his older cousin in any way he could. Tiergan has not seen Vailyx since he was seven, and was unaware that Vailyx survived the Fall of Ala Mhigo until recently. He still holds onto the hope that Vailyx may still yet be alive.

'''Cousin: [[Caen Jabari]]''' - Seeker of the Sun - A sprightly, acrobatic youth without any memory of his past. Tiergan was initially unaware of Caen's existence as the youth was born long after Tiergan was enslaved. The former-gladiator was later overjoyed to learn that he not only had another surviving relative, but that Caen was the younger brother to Vailyx. He's is now determined to protect Caen as he believes Vailyx would and to give the boy the family Caen has been missing for five long years.

===<div style="background:#444363;font-size:30px;padding:1px;color:#FFFFFF;">Romance</div>===
<br>
Tiergan is a man who actively avoids romance. While he has slept with various men and women on a casual basis and shared his bed with many during his time as a slave, his history is largely violent and full of unhealthy relationships both intimate and not. The last major romantic relationship of his past ended with the death of his lover and the sense that he catastrophically failed to protect the woman he loved. He badly hurt the last two people he attempted to romance in current times in ways that ended the courtship, largely viewing the failed relationships as being a direct result of the kind of unpleasant person his life experiences have forged him into.

This, along a fear of being confined and controlled from his time as a slave, makes him incredibly skittish of romancing anyone. The overwhelming tide of sensations that come with forging a romance are far too intense and too raw, leaving him with the strong potential to lash out in one way or another. He enjoys casual intimacy amongst close friends, but responds with extreme discomfort or even panic if pressed to draw into a relationship of a far more serious nature as it triggers far too many unpleasant memories.

['''OOC:''' Romance RP not one of the main focuses of my RP. I enjoy romantic tension and conflict. If your character attempts to romance Tiergan, do so knowing that it most likely result in a clusterfuck that has an extremely small chance of turning into a normal RP relationship. ]

One minute they could appear as close as lovers and in the next, Tiergan could look ready to tear out the other man's throat. It's clear the two have a great deal of history together - but Tiergan often refuses to go into detail about it. They are currently in something of an open-relationship and his feelings for the man run strong and deep, yet a potent mix of pride and fury prevents him from ever acknowledging them publicly.</td>

Tiergan occasionally makes the trek towards Faolan's territory, to seek out advice and to learn the very beginnings of conjury. Recently, bizarre events have made Tiergan extremely wary of the woodsman, but also terrified for the hermit's future safety. The wheel turns. The Cycle begins again.</td>

Tiergan often refers to Teld're as a 'storm siren' for the swordsman's dangerous, storm-like nature and his tendency to pull others to him with a sense of charismatic grace. It has become a source of both fascination and frustration for Tiergan as he often finds himself unable to simply walk away when Teld're calls for him -- far too allured by the swordsman's voice. Over time their friendship shifted into a far more heated, passionate bond, awakening something within Tiergan that is equal parts violent, possessive, and protective.

Tiergan is never sure what to make of the towering elezen that seems to observe and protect others from the shadows.

It wasn't until recently that Tiergan returned and apologised for his cowardice, though the mercenary seems relieved to see Niko'lai has already moved on, finding a lover that reciprocates the bard's affections. </td>

::*"I think he might have a sister? She works as an information broker in Ul'dah. Don't know if they particularly like each other though - no one's ever seen them spending much time together."
::*"I see that one leaving the city all the time. Sometimes it's just for a usual job or mission. Other times, he vanishes for days and sometimes comes back bloodied and bruised. He'll say he was simply on a rough job - but the look on his face says it was something much, much more sinister then that. Best not to keep close company with that one, I say."

[[File:DA tier.jpg|left|506x625px|DA_tier.jpg]]

=== Childhood ===

Tiergan was seven when the Empire devastated Ala Mhigo. His parents were slain trying to defend their home and he was separated from his older sister, Lurial, when slavers captured him along with several other Ala Mhigan refugees fleeing from the region.

Sold to a shrewd and wealthy merchant, Tiergan spent the next six years burrowing in mines and quarries, performing hard labour along with many other child-workers who had been bought for the same purpose. With each year that passed, the youngling grew more angry, vicious, and aggressive - making him difficult to control and risky to keep. His memories of life before the quarries were beginning to fade, but he still recalled the kind voice of his mother, the warm strength of his father, and the sister he'd been torn away from when the madness began.

Instead of putting the slave down and wasting an investment, the merchant eventually traveled to the Ul'dahn Black Markets and resold Tiergan as a potential gladiator slave to a secretive criminal lord known only as "Omen." The youth made his first kill not long after, when he was thrust into a room with another child of the same age and told that only one of them would be permitted to leave alive to become a gladiator.

The years that followed were a frenzied blur of harsh, rigorous training; brutal combat in illegal fighting arenas; and terrifying, nightmarish visions. Blackroot Rose leaves were used to give the youth a cruel, but lethal advantage towards the start of his 'career' and somnus was used to calm the boy afterwards, making him docile. The constant back and forth between frenzied uncontrollable violence and mind-numbing calm nearly turned the youngling into a shattered mess. However, as Tiergan grew more powerful in his own right, the use of Blackroot Rose became blessedly less frequent, eventually stopping all together.

With time, Lurial heard word of Tiergan and tracked him down. The brother and sister found ways to meet and stay in contact, their strong sibling bond becoming unbreakable over time as they took solace in the fact the other had survived and they were not truly alone.

=== Adulthood ===

At the age of 17, Tiergan was moved into the adult slave pens. There, an unusual hierarchy was established where the strongest slave - designated as the "Alpha" - received special privileges and treatment in exchange for keeping all of the other slaves in line. The Alpha status was signified by a single red band around the upper arm and other slaves could fight the reigning Alpha with hopes of defeating them and taking their place.

Savagely clawing his way to the top, Tiergan reached Alpha status within a year. There, he embraced luxuries and pleasures he'd previously been denied, freedoms he'd never truly known. With each day that passed, the more the miqo'te indulged himself in a world of sadistic aggression, pitiless savagery, and hedonistic dominance. He took what he wanted, touched what he liked, forcing others to bend to his needs and desires as he took advantage of everything being an 'Alpha' afforded him. There were three other equally powerful contenders for the position. However, through a combination of luck and skill, the Tiergan managed to remain Alpha for three solid years until he lost the position to Zaius - a vicious, towering miqo'te with unparalleled strength and a sharp, calculating mind, who had only arrived within the pens a week before.

At first, Tiergan viewed Zaius with a great deal of resentment. After spending so much time at the top, the idea that someone could simply appear and defeat him within a week of arriving was infuriating. To make matters worse, the older, stronger male was often cruel and abrasive, mistreating Tiergan at every possible opportunity. Other slaves that had always fought Tiergan one-on-one in hopes of stealing his position, swiftly began ganging up on him in groups to exact revenge. Omen's men no longer regarded him with any measure of respect and he was denied all of the things he'd once enjoyed.

In desperation to regain his position, Tiergan clashed with Zaius often, fighting with the other male over and over, until eventually a frenzied, tumultuous relationship developed. Gradually, the abuse Tiergan faced at the hands of others vanished as he fell under Zaius' protection. Even Omen's men hesitated to bring Tiergan any harm, his bond with Zaius swinging wildly between enemy, friend, and lover. Tiergan's emotions fell into conflict, his sense of pride making it difficult for Tiergan to see Zaius as anything other then a hated enemy or rival to be defeated... while Zaius' tendency to protect and defend him made it hard for Tiergan not to feel a little appreciation and even fondness for the older miqo'te. As the years passed, Zaius became both his most hated opponent and most valued, trusted confidant. Zaius knew him better than any other, and having a 'friend' that he could quietly rely on, someone who always had his back -- even if it came at a price -- was an experience that radically changed Tiergan's perceptions.

It wasn't until sudden rioting erupted amongst the slaves and one of the walls to the pens exploded that Tiergan was eventually able to escape. With countless other slaves fighting each other and pouring out of the opening, Tiergan and many others were able to flee Omen's control. Tiergan later learned it was all orchestrated by her sister who had been planning to liberate him, but had no way of relaying the news. The gladiator-slave was finally free.

His first taste of freedom did not come easy. His time as a slave had forged him into a rough, heartless man of violence with a sadistic streak tempered only by the fact that he'd been humbled by Zaius. It took him a little more than two years years, with Lurial and others gently (and sometimes not so gently) guiding him every step of the way, for Tiergan to unlearn many old, brutal habits and to transform into a far more quiet, balanced individual.

=== Present ===

Since his escape, Tiergan has become a mercenary, taking on whatever jobs he can to survive. Omen placed a notable bounty on his head in order to have the gladiator returned back to the Pits, only for Tiergan to respond by either killing the bounty hunters that pursue him or sending them back to Ul'dah with broken, shattered bones. While he is a relatively quiet man and does not draw too much attention to himself save during combat -- he doesn't always fully disguise himself when going about his life in Ul'dah, relying on the considerably large miqo'te population to help him blend in with the crowd. He will sometimes however, give his father's name in the place of his own when signing documents that can leave an obvious paper-trail for others to follow.

He's often seen around Little Ala Mhigo and other nearby refugee camps, delivering food and supplies to the people there, before leaving as swiftly as he came. Every once in a while however, Tiergan heads out on his own, vanishing for a long stretch of time and coming back days later, bloodied and disheveled. He engages on a bloody vengeful crusade, tracking down Omen's men, slaughtering them, and disrupting his old master's activities in hopes of bringing the man's vast empire crumbling down to the foundations. Knowing that inciting Omen's anger too much would cause him more problems than he could manage, Tiergan takes great care not only to disguise himself during these 'hunts', but to kill everyone that might return to speak of the destruction he sows and is relentless in his brutality and rage.

He looks back upon his past with a mix of anger, deep regret, and an infuriating sense of yearning he cannot shake. As much as he hated being shackled by anyone and privately wishes he could atone for the depravity of his actions as an Alpha, a small and terrible part of him can't help but miss the position and all the luxuries he enjoyed. It is a dark, unpleasant part of him that the miqo'te keeps buried, hoping that with time, it will eventually go away.

==<div style="background:#444363; font-size:40px; color:#FFFFFF">Character Connections</div>==

The following characters may have the possibility of an RP link with Tiergan:

::* A gladiator or anyone affiliated with the gladiator's guild - they would recognise Tiergan a fellow gladiator who was successful in the coliseum. He was known for wielding a sword and a steel, clawed gauntlet when fighting and wore a brass gorget around his neck.
::* Anyone has ties to the Ul'dahn criminal underground - they might have seen Tiergan brawling it out in illegal combat pits. If they frequented them often enough or had deep enough ties, they would also know he was a gladiator-slave.
::* If your character has really REALLY strong ties to the Ul'dahn criminal underground - they would know he was owned by "Omen."
::* Fellow mercenaries - they may have worked together at one point or another. Or they would recognise Tiergan as another mercenary who often took jobs that involved either violence, killing, or guarding something.
::* Ala Mhigans, Ala Mhigan refugees, and people living or working in Little Ala Mhigo.
::* Fellow slaves - anyone who was enslaved shortly after the Garlean Empire struck down Ala Mhigo, was a child-laborer, or was a slave may have connections to Tiergan.
::* Bounty hunters may know of the sizable bounty on Tiergan's head. He is wanted alive.

==History/Timeline==

===Youth: Birth to age 7===
When R’tashana Hhaig was only seven years old, the Nunh cast her and her mother out of the family. Though she repeatedly asked what they did, her mother would never answer. The pair took to wandering Eorzea, and eventually found employment with a traveling merchant caravan. After a few weeks, R’tashana woke up and discovered her mother had abandoned her, so she was now fully in the care of the Duskwight Elezen caravan master and his family. She did what she could to help out, and picked up some sewing skills from the other women.

===Formative Years: Age 7 to age 15===
Finally, after two years of assisting the chocobo keeper, she was put in charge of caring for the chocobos after the keeper’s unexplained disappearance since she was the only one who knew anything about them. Unfortunately, less than a month later, the Great Calamity came to Eorzea, and the entire caravan, including the chocobos she was in charge of, were sucked into a great void that opened in the ground while she was out getting water.
So at the tender age of eleven, R’tashana made her way to the place she knew best, Ul’dah, where the caravan made frequent stops. There she quickly became another faceless child growing up in the Pearl Lane district, doing what she could to survive; mostly legal, but some illegal activities if she was in dire straits. She would occasionally sneak into the Pugilist Guild, and picked up enough skill to be able to fend off the unwanted advances from the men-folk. And she knew the streets of Ul’dah well enough to escape the ones who weren’t dissuaded by a solid punch to the nose. She mostly kept to herself, and only sought out assistance when she really needed it.

===Young Adult: Age 15 to age 17===
After four years of living this life, she decided to take a bold step and go outside the city to seek adventure. At age fifteen, she talked her way into joining an adventuring party, and steadily her confidence grew, and she also started to learn to trust others, and realized that she could depend on the other party members to have her back. Two years was a long time for an adventure party to remain intact, but the group was very successful, and saw no need to break apart. While with this group she picked up some skill with a bow. However, she never could understand the magics of healing.

After a particularly successful treasure hunt, the party was ambushed by Hyuran bandits on their way back to the Coffer and Coffin in Central Thanalan to divide the treasure, and only her and the conjurer survived. The two women were victimized by the bandits, and were taken, along with the substantial loot, to Hyuran slavers who was offering high prices for females. The two women were both sold, and were used primarily as servants to the slavers and any special guests who showed up. Occasionally they were used for sex, but mostly the slavers already had enough females to handle that part. After about six months of this life, an Immortal Flames patrol happened by the camp, and after arresting the slavers who weren’t killed in the raid, the two women were brought back to Ul’dah where they were taken care of and healed. The Hyuran conjurer left as soon as she was able, and R’tashana found herself alone once more.

===Age 18 to Pre-game===
A year later, at the age of eighteen and not wanting to remain in the city, she again struck out in hopes of finding a new adventuring party. What she found instead was a charismatic Miqo’te named Ra’tokura Nunh (perhaps find a person willing to play this part and change name accordingly?), who took her into his family. Once again, she thrived, her confidence returning. It wasn’t long before the young woman was Ra’tokura’s favorite, as her mysterious past (which she refused to talk about) and unrefined demeanor enraptured him. The other women, jealous at being relegated to second class behind Ra’tashana, decided to find out more about this girl. When they discovered the incident with her adventuring party, where she was victimized by the bandits and made a slave, they located one of the bandits and paid him off to “accidentally” cross paths with her. Upon seeing him, she shut down.

After telling Ra’tokura the story about how she knew the man, and what had happened to her, he told her to leave, as he would not have damaged goods in his family. Humiliated, she hung her head in shame and departed, not even bothering to take any of her belongings; she left with just the clothes on her back. The other women were smiling evilly as she walked out the door. She wouldn’t look at them, but she could feel the hate emanating from the group. Yet again, she found herself alone.

After that she just wandered aimlessly (or so she thought). After coming across a peasant passed-out from too much drink the night before, she stripped the clothing from him, and exchanged it with her own dress, which was now filthy and tattered. “What will this poor soul think when he wakes up, finding himself wearing what was once a beautiful dress?” She laughed a hollow laugh, and then thanked him for the clothing and continued on.
Six months later, after wandering around Eorzea in a daze, she found herself once again staring up at the walls of Ul‘dah. “What is it with this place that keeps drawing me back to it? Why can’t I escape this city? Is my destiny tied somehow to it? Or is it my ultimate demise the city seeks?”

An outcast for from her birth family for reasons she never knew, the caravan and her beloved chocobos swept away in the Great Calamity, her adventuring party members dead or gone, a pariah to the second family she had once belonged to, she let out a sigh and entered the city gate. She thought she heard the gate guard say “Welcome back, little cat.” But she just walked past and made her way down to the Pearl Lane area, to see if any of her previous hiding places were still intact. After finding one that hadn’t been discovered or claimed, she crawled into the cubby hole, curled up and fell into a deep sleep.
R’tashana’s future and her past had once again collided. This time she was sure that the city of Ul ‘dah would finally claim her, and she would become yet another poor soul cast into the pit along with all the other dregs once her life ended.

===In-game History===
One day while R'tashana was trying to assist the chocobo keeper at Scorpion Crossing (and getting nowhere), a Duskwight stranger approached her. Being extremely uneasy around people she didn't know, she spoke with him, but always maintained a distance so she could take flight if needed. A new pair of shoes convinced her that this person, who introduced himself as Jaques Guillaume might be different.

A short time later, Jaques and a Duskwight female Chiane N'ardente found R'tashana in Pearl Lane, and even though she tried to cover her reasons for being there, the pair saw through this and offered to take her back to the Phoenix Rose, an establishment they run to help freed slaves. This is where she met Vaughn Antain, he gave her a beautiful Yukata to wear in place of her usual peasant clothing. After she was told that she had her own room at the Phoenix Rose, she was escorted there and fell into a deep sleep. This was the first time she had slept in a real bed since she couldn't even remember.

In a recent Phoenix Rose rescue mission with Sword & Rose Order to free merchants from a group of bandits, R'tashana somehow was able to be present. While she wasn't invited, she also wasn't sent away. She thought this would be a good way to help earn her keep at the Phoenix Rose. She was very unsure of herself, but the presence of Jaques and Vaughn bolstered her courage. After the attack on the kidnappers began, her task was simple: untie the merchants while the rest engaged the bandits. However, when one of the slavers approached her, she completely froze, and cowered back in fear of the large man, afraid she would be once again subjected to the life of a slave.
The bandit seemed confused by this, and left her to assist his fellows. After the battle was over, R’Tashana dejectedly made her way over and began freeing the captives. She apologized to Jaques for freezing in the moment, and promised not to let it happen again. The gear she used for the engagement was returned to the Rose armory, and she then went back up to her room and crawled into bed, trying hard and failing miserably to control her tears at letting the group down.

Until shortly after her eighth name day when the village was attacked. The soldiers did not give any warning or make any demands, they just slaughtered every adult they found. During the battle Kehvi witnessed an Elezen, who appeared to be in charge of the soldiers, kill her older brother. After the attack the soldiers rounded up all the young ones and took them away. These children were sold to a private family in the Garlean Empire.

==Character==
===General Bio===

Kiht Jakkya is a very traditional Keeper of the Moon. She grew up in the Twelveswood with her family and Keeper group. She was trained to be a huntress and scout for her group. She learned to track, hunt, scout and fight from a childhood age. While she grew up in a Matriarchal society, she learned a lot from her father and uncles, and trained with her cousins and sisters. She knows a lot about the Black Shroud, and has a hard time with Gridanian laws and regulations as it had been a hindrance to her Keeper group's traditional ways.

Kiht was once arrested by the Gridanians due to a misunderstanding. She spent a year in Gridania being "rehabilitated" by the Twin Adders. While she was a Gridanian captive, a sympathetic (and brave) Elezen soldier decided to impart to her a great deal of knowledge on the world and the ways of the Lancers. Kiht returned to her family as a more educated huntress who helped her group establish a dialogue with the Gridanians. While the Gridanians wouldn't have been considered the group's allies, they were no longer enemies five years after the Calamity.

Since then, Kiht has seen many places in Eorzea, and has been a part of several lives.

===Appearance===

Kiht Jakkya is small, even by Miqo'te standards, but that is actually true of most of the females in her small family. Kiht usually appears serious and doesn't often show her emotions easily. The hard life that she has shared with her group in the Black Shroud has made her stoic and often well-guarded. She has a teardrop tattoo on her forehead witch represents a tear of Menphina. She grows jet-black hair, and has a small scar close to her right eye which possibly has a story of its own. If one were to look closely at Kiht's eyes, they would see a color matching the blue of a starlit night sky.

===Behavior===

Kiht is willful and somewhat stubborn in her views. She has a strong curiosity, and is an astute observer. She is fierce in battle, but often very calm otherwise which is why many who have never seen her fight do not think she can. She may even be shy around certain people. Her favored goddesses are Menphina the Lover (as per clan tradition) and Halone the Fury, goddess of battle. Some might say the persona of the two cousin goddesses are expressed in Kiht. She is furiously protective of people she cares about, and yet has a sensitivity to her that might melt a grizzled Roegadyn pirate.

She speaks like an educated Eorzean, so many might not be aware of her nomadic and traditional upbringing when they first meet her. Most people don't realize that her way of speaking is practiced, and that she wasn't always so sophisticated with speech. She learned that people judge others by the way they talk, so she has learned to use that to her advantage.

Kiht displays the tendencies of a traditional Keeper in that she has trouble with male authority, and a strong respect for other females. However, she has come to look beyond those biases in some cases, so there are some males she respects a great deal, and some females she has come to dislike.

==Tendencies==

[[File:Kihtcolorbluelines.png|300px|]]

===Likes===
::* Meat. Six years after the calamity, she is tired of her family having to eat more vegetables than they ever have had to. She is crazy for fish, pork and exotic meats.
::* Traditions, rituals and dancing.
::* Plant life. She likes flowers and trees. When she is not with her family in the Black Shroud she often climbs the very tall trees in order to find a safe place to sleep during the day.

===Family===

The Jakkya surname is an ancient Keeper name that has been passed down since the dawn of the Keeper clans. Because the name follows the female individuals, not a specific clan, the name is now widespread amongst the Keepers of the Moon. In other words, there may be more Keepers with the surname Jakkya, but not all Jakkyas are part of the same group or family. The surname simply indicates a shared ancestry which could be as far back as the first use of the name.

The Jakkya family is a family reunited. Three generations in the past, the family had split because of differing philosophies. One side of the family helped form the Shriekshroom clan which -was- a nomadic group of hunter-gatherers who moved from settlement to settlement within the Twelveswood. They developed into dignified scout and skilled leather-workers. They are willful and dedicated, but often very prideful. This side of the family lived at peace with Gridania until the calamity struck. At that time, they were forced to be at odds with the city for the five years of disarray and recovery of the forest. They also fought in numerous conflicts with the Ixal.

The other sides of the family stayed in the South Shroud or West Shroud, and disbursed to various Keeper groups. They practiced stern traditions that they took very seriously. They fought a constant battle for territory, and their rights to hunt in the forest.

'''Members (player characters):'''

[[Taiga Jakkya]] is a cousin from South Shroud. She may be rough around the edges, but her loyalty to family is unquestionable. She has shown as much wisdom as Kiht has (in most cases...), and has been counsel for Kiht on many occasions. She has quickly become very dear to Kiht.

[[Nyxh Jakkya]] is Kiht's half-sister. They grew up together, but have now grown apart.

[[Khloe Jakkya]] is Kiht's cousin. Having spent five years with her father in Ul'dah, Khloe struggles with being a traditional Jakkya. However, Kiht has come a long way in respecting that her cousin is not typical. Khloe supported Kiht on many occasions, and Kiht has not forgotten. Khloe is the oddest Jakkya, but she is still a Jakkya.

[[Nesha Jakkya]] is another cousin. She passed trials at a surprisingly young age, and ambitiously set off to Limsa Lominsa to learn new things that would benefit the family. She did not return until recently. Kiht thought she was dead, but quite the opposite; Nesha became an assassin on the caliber of the Rogues of Limsa Lominsa.

[[Zakkn'a Jakkya]] is Kiht's half-brother. He was a stubborn pain in her arse the last time she saw him. He did not get along well with many in the Morbolvine Clan. She has been out of contract with him, and wonders if he is well.

'''Members freed from slavery:'''

Kipih Jakkya (NPC): Currently recovering in Gridania.

===Friends===

[[Yvelont Navarre]] is Kiht's valued mentor. He gave her extensive education, and training when she was forced to endure six moons of rehabilitation in Gridania. He took on the task that no one else wanted to do: train and educate a wild teenage Moon-keeper girl. He did so with patience, genuine care and perhaps some protective armor. He helped her gain her freedom, and has become like family to her. Kiht would take on Bahamut if it meant helping him.

[[Roen Deneith]] is one of Kiht's first friends after journeying to Thanalan. Kiht first met her at the Grindstone tournament. The woman is extremely generous to Kiht, but is not prone to easily share information about herself. However, Kiht now knows a lot about Roen, and now considers her a close friend.

A suave vagabond by the name of '''Tobias ((Nightbringer))''' helped Kiht gain entrance to Gridania for a very modest fee when she still had a criminal record. She does not yet know him well enough to call him "friend", but she finds the witty Hyur to be fascinating, and is certainly in debt to him for helping her get into Gridania. She wishes to know more about him, but he is always prone to dodge questions, and use charm to divert attention. She is convinced that this is some sort of defense mechanism that guards a troubled past.

A close friend of Kiht's is a rather gruff, but friendly and traditional, Keeper of the Moon by the name of [[Kendha'to Burwani]]. Kiht and Kendha'to grew very close after spending much time with each other. However, the male lives the life of Oschon, and tends to wander the world alone. Regardless of what happens in Kiht's life, she will always have a place in her heart for that "Bone-headed male".

A traditional Moon-keeper huntress by the name of [[Rinette Molkoh]] has become like a sister to Kiht. Through all their time they've spent together, Kiht probably knows more about Rinette than she does anyone else aside from her family. Kiht would put her life in danger for Rinette without hesitation. Nothing more needs to be said.

A shy and often emotional Moon-keeper girl by the name of [[Merri Renalah]] is a friend of Kiht's that she has known for many Moons. Thanks to Kiht's efforts, Merri is now reunited with her once-lost Keeper group, and will soon be the head matron of her family. Worried about Merri's many perceived vulnerabilities, Kiht intends to watch over the girl, and help her remember what it means to be a Keeper of the Moon.

[[Rinh'li Nelhah]] is a kind and sensitive male Keeper of the Moon who has become Kiht's lover. She quickly got attached to him, and can't explain why she likes him so much, but she has become fiercely protective of him, and will go to great lengths to help him with his "inner demons". She is often uncertain about where Rinh'li's chosen path in life is, but she knows she will always care for him in some way.

[[Erik Mynhier]] - In Kiht's opinion, he is as good a man as you can find. Does right by the world, and does what he has to defend good people and good causes. The man is a hero. Erik was one of the first to visit Kiht after a traumatic experience. She will not forget the kindness and friendship he offered her.

[[Crisiet Liautroix]] - Is an ex-Ishgardian with a seemingly plain demeanor, but he has proven a valuable ally time and again. When Kiht disappeared, he was one of the few to investigate. He was also one of the few to show up when she needed aid in a battle. Somehow, he is always around when Kiht needs help the most.

[[Enju Abbagliato]] - Kiht finds him to be calm and collected. She has not seen many emotions from him. She knows where Enju's true loyalties lie, and that has never concerned her as long as he continues to be an ally. He has aided her on many occasions, and was one of the few who searched for her when she went missing. He has proven to be one of her most helpful friends.

[[Verad Bellveil]] - This Duskwight offered his friendship for sale at a dubiously low price. Kidding aside, he is one of those rare friends who Kiht can absolutely trust. The man is a bit mysterious, but his intentions are clear. He is a great man, and Kiht -will- support him.

[[Aya Foxheart]] - Even as Kiht's life goes through some changes, Aya has been a nice constant. She opened up to Kiht, and that is not something Kiht will forget.

[[Kahn'a Od'hilkas]] - Kiht was not too sure about this male Keeper at first, but has come to realize he is a good man who often gets frustrated with his inability to fix every crazy problem put before him. Kiht still does not know much about him, but feels like he may be the type that takes the weight of Ul'dah's problems onto his shoulders. A true Immortal Flame.

[[Nheu'a Polaali]] - Kiht knows he has issues. She knows he follows a dangerous path. She knows he is not perfect. However, she sees him as a new mentor. One of the few who saw her potential, and helped her gain greater skill and strength. He is the first in a long time to have put faith in her.

[[Khloe Lyehga]] - Is an example of someone who Kiht did not like as much at first. The strange girl with the mysterious magic eye bears a bizarre past; all of which was thought to be a threat to Kiht's family and friends. However, she did not truly know Khloe until recently. The two have differences, but much in common as well. Khloe is a good and honest Moon-sister, and Kiht is glad she did not drive her away.

[[Nihka Mioni]] - Is a wise, but highly sensitive Keeper who has become part of the Shroudwolf Clan. Despite the fact that Kiht does not always know how to handle Nihka, she considers her a close friend, and feels strongly protective of Nihka and her infant daughter Sehki.

[[R'shesha Otharn]] - Is a Seeker huntress and scout that is like the never-ending sunshine of the Shroudwolf Clan. R'shesha seems to bond easily with anyone, and hardly displays anger. Kiht sometimes feels frustrated with how trusting R'shesha can be of strangers, but she is a loyal friend who Kiht would not trade away.

[[Sanja Polaali]] - Is a Keeper who once hailed from the Morbolvine Clan. However, Sanja chose her loyalty over blood and joined the Shroudwolf Clan. Kiht sometimes seriously worries about Sanja, but the teenage Keeper has been in Kiht's life for so long, she considers her a sister.

[[Cy'xanne Nunh]] - Is a Seeker who use to exchange frequent philosophical conversations with Kiht. She finds him to be intelligent and wise. Most would not give him the benefit of the doubt due to his title, but Kiht knew better. If Kiht had been born a Seeker, she would have joined his tribe. However, as a Keeper, she can still at least be his friend.

[[Pyralis Targaryen]] - I'm not going to bother writing anything because it will likely change back to "poor standing" in a few weeks.

[[Ninifae Nira]] - Kiht doesn't get to make new friends often anymore, but Nira is a recent jewel. Despite having a very different life, this newly "reborn" Moon-keeper has much in common with Kiht on a philosophical level.

===Noteworthy Contacts===

[[Xydane Vale]] ((Good standing)) - Kiht feels that this knight is naive in that he acts like he is the solution to every problem. However, he is one of the rare people who can truly recognize the difference between right and wrong. He is an honorable man, and for that, he has gained Kiht's respect. She would never admit it though.

[[Osric Melkire]] ((Good standing)) - He's done good things, and bad things. However, he is one of her last allies outside her Clan, and he shares Kiht's clarity.

[[C'kayah Tia]] ((Good standing)) - While Kiht's professional relations with this male have been shaky and full of negative feelings, she has come to see that he is usually not motivated by malevolence. She thinks his selfish tendencies make him dangerous, and she questions his morals, but he seems to have a sincere empathy for people who are not his enemies.

[[Askier Mergrey]] ((Good Standing)) - Kiht thought he was a bit odd at first... Well, she still thinks he is odd. However, she has quickly come to like him. She knows little about his past, and prefers not to pry. She hears that he gets enough punishment for the things he has done.

[[Miah Polaali]] ((Neutral standing)) - Kiht use to be close friends with her, but they eventually could not agree on many things. She threatened Kiht's life at one point, but their last meeting ended with an attempt to make peace. Who knows what the future will bring.

===Poor Standing===

[[Raelisanne Banurein]] - Kiht was unsure what to think of the woman at first. Even after finding out about her true loyalties, Kiht had little reason to hate the woman. However, recent revelations has made Kiht realize that the woman probably needs to be stopped.

===Enemies===

'''Austurmax''' - The thorn in Kiht's side; the tormentor of friends and family. She nearly launched a crusade against this Black Mage on many occasions.

[[Jin'li Epinoch]] - He once compromised Kiht's leadership, and almost forced her to the point where she might have taken her own life to save others. It never came to that, and he is now history, but Kiht will never forget how bad he had made things.

==Extras OOC==

Open to potential integration of other characters into my story. For example, I would be willing to have someone become part of her clan or family.

PM me (Knight Kat on the HRPC forums) with any questions regarding my character, or her story. I am not interested in a critique of my writing style; this is a rough draft so far. However, I would listen to any corrections on lore. I want to be as accurate as I can be when it comes to the lore of the game. Also, if there are any inconsistencies in my wiki, please let me know.

==General==

'''Leanne Delphium''' (25th Sun 6th Umbral Moon) is a city born miqo'te who hails from Gridania. Since a child the Seeker was one to go against the current of Gridania's peaceful culture, dreams and wishes of traveling burning deep into her heart. By the age of 17, the brave and courageous miqo'te said goodbye to her parents and relatively safe life, starting the life of adventure she so much desired. Now, by the tender age of 18, she is already a respectable adventurer with a lot of experience, and a lot of friends, who she will protect with tooth and nail from the dangers Hydaelyn might present.

"''Marching along the road, I've met several people. I wonder how many more I'm going to meet during my journey..."'' - Leanne Delphium

===Appearance===

: A girl with striking golden eyes, happy and cheerful features, Leanne is slightly smaller than most people, difference that become most obvious to her when besides a roegadyn and/or an elezen. She takes everything in a practical way, including her appearance, with easy to breath shirt and trousers. The most iconic item of her attire is her headwear, a fancy hat which she bought midst the road. It is one of the very identities of Leanne, so much that most people immediately identify her just by the sight of the object. Leanne is of alluring beauty, fact that she more often than not ignores as appearance is considered a secondary thing in her life.

: Even though the seeker goes for the easy and practical, she actually places a lot of care in her hair, a paradox to her usual methods. Her facepaint, though partly out of vanity, is a present of her mom, a charm of sorts from her days as a huntress to protect her child against the dangerous world Leanne wishes to explore.

===Behavior===

: Leanne is a very cheerful and enthusiastic girl, willing to help and hear anyone and everyone. She's quick to trust those even with more malicious intentions, and tries to deal with problems peacefully when possible. Her love of travel and experiences in Eorzea made her wise beyond her years, mind open to accept and sometimes partake in several, different cultures and customs. Somewhat naive in certain departments, but more often than not sharp, she's easily able to detect lies, something she mostly attributes to her "sharp eyes".

==Combat==
===General/Physical===

: As a children, her "mascot" status between some of the Quivers and Wailers gave her access to a variety of weapons as well as a bit of combat experience. Through these means, her excellent marksmanship was shown to the world, being able to pull remarkable stunts with a bow. It didn't take long for Leanne to focus herself on that strength of hers, not only with a bow, but with any ranged weapon she managed to get her hands into, becoming a very skilled sharpshooter. If her aim fails though, she developed keen skills at dodging attacks besides having a basic knowledge of pugilism, sometimes bordering on advanced because of a few mimicked moves.

: A skill more recently developed was her prowess with daggers. Maybe a bleed-off from her potential as a pugilism or perhaps the result of spotting too many dagger wielders, Leanne is not wholly experienced, yet can be fearsome with the weapon. She suffices any flaws by her aim and skill at throwing knives.

===Magic===

: Leanne has almost no experience with aether, the closest thing to manipulation she has coming from the fact she is a Bard, manipulating the aether and people's emotions with her songs and being able to envelop her arrows with lacerating mini-whirlwinds.

===Family===

Leanne deeply loves her family, from her dutiful father, to her sweet and helping mother, and of course, her mischievous and equally carefree little brother.

:: '''C'thara Delphium''': A former huntress of the coeurl tribe, nowadays a sweet mother who tends for her children. Leanne's major source of counseling, several characteristics of the younger miqo'te can be found in her mom, not only in thought, but also in appearance. Even though Leanne's not as fierce as C'thara, the matriarch saw in her daughter a mirror of her younger days in Leanne's insatiable wanderlust and drive for adventure. Initially against having Leanne shoving herself into danger, eventually she yielded to her daughter, and as of today, C'thara helps her daughter whenever she asks, and is filled with proud at each achievement she hears from the adventurer.

:: '''C'kahn Delphium''': Former tia of the coeurl tribe, nowadays carpenter and leatherworker in Gridania. He was considered by everyone a weak man, yet, his sense of duty, determination and his utterly kind soul eventually managed to steal C'thara's heart, driving both him and his lover to find a new home in Gridania. C'kahn leaves Leanne's mentoring mostly to C'thara, as he also sees in Leanne a younger version of his wife, yet is not shy from helping her whenever she needs. The more doting parent, he was the one who gave to Leanne her chocobo.

:: '''Elliot Delphium''': Leanne's younger brother, a very mischievous and carefree kid, who sees Leanne as an icon to follow and idolize, bringing a bit of jealousy into C'kahn, and giggling into C'thara. Currently practicing spear-fighting, he aims to reach Leanne, and someday surpass her.

:: '''Kyrin''': Leanne's loyal pup, also known as the Little Bandit. Fearless and always happy, he's a constant source of happiness and trouble for Leanne, his love for bones surpassing the common knowledge that you don't try stealing them from crypts and reanimated skeletons.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Markus Krosse]] : Her bestie as she likes to say, Markus and Leanne met by pure coincidence after a drinking night in the Quicksand. Event after event made their bond deepen, to the point Leanne hardly imagines her life without her right-hand man there, either to support her, or for her to give support. Platonic life partners as she says, she trusts Markus deeply, and will drop absolutely everything for the sake of her most reliable comrade.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Ralena Tharin]] : Another bestie of hers, Ralena was the first person who Leanne met when she stepped into the Quicksand, quickly developing a friendship with the hyur. Ever since, you can find them talking and drinking at the place every so often, Ralena's more abrasive personality making a nice contrast to Leanne's as they throw jokes and banter at each other.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Chachanji Gegenji]] : A lalafell she met at the quicksand, Leanne instantly took a liking to him, not only for his antics, but for the fact that she sees in the lalafell a younger version of herself, of the days she started her adventure. Considering him a sibling-in-kind, Leanne will defend Chachan with teeth and nails from absolutely anyone or anything that will bring any sort of harm to him, and is deeply fond of him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Ha'uruh Nunh]] : Friend of Leanne, she considers him a lot, his protective behavior towards her bringing her a bit of ease in troubling times. Even though she respects him a lot, she is very informal, not over pulling a prank or two to see the poor man blushing...though she never forgets to say sorry afterwards!

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Spahro Llorn]] : Bizarrely able to withstand Spahro's antics, she has a nice friendship with the eccentric keeper, finding her a dependable person, despite the opinions of several people. It is not uncommon though for Spahro to get in Leanne's nerves, who sometimes manages to get back at her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Leih'a Relanah]] : Friend of hers and Markus, she has a knack for threatening him with bodily pain, for his tendency to mess up with a thing or another. Despite that though, she really likes him, and like with Markus, she's ready to help at any instance.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Aya Foxheart]] : A friend of the Quicksand, their cheerful disposition seems to marry perfectly. A conversation between them is more often than not accompanied with a big smile from both parties!

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Shas Tarry]] : A sultansworn, Leanne see Shas as a mentor, the older woman bringing a lot of insight and wise words into Leanne's life. Though the highlander was unable to fully steer Leanne away from the grumpy path the seeker thrust herself into, it would be unwise to say Leanne don't consider her words deeply.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Coatleque Crofte]] : The sultansworn drew interest from Leanne at first sight, yet the air of nobility and order that came from the highlander strangely managed to intimidate Leanne, who is normally quick to chat with anyone. Nowadays though, Leanne fearlessly goes to walk with Crofte, greeting the knight with her usual big smile.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Franz Renatus]] : A garlean Leanne met, it took a while for her to discover his homeland, yet such discovery didn't deter Leanne of continuing her friendship, instead giving her a lot of curiosity, not only about Franz, but about Garlemald itself. She likes to consider herself a close friend of his.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Verad Bellveil]] : Source of laughs and also frustration, the dubious salesman strikes as a honest, yet eccentric man. Valiant certain times, a coward in other ones, serious, and yet goofy, Leanne personally loves his presence, even if said presence sometimes causes frustration to no end.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Edda Eglantine]] : Another friend of hers, the several times Leanne saved Edda from the dangers she got herself into thrust Leanne into being extra-protective of her well-being.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Jancis Milburga]] : Nowadays one of Leanne's bosses, Jancis is today one of the few people that will disarm Leanne from her grumpy behavior, the sight of the caring and gentle hyur bringing forth her own sweet side.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Natalie Mcbeef]] : A sultansworn, and Leanne's last opponent on her first victory in the grindstone. Her once dear friend is now a bittersweet memory, bringing Leanne a gentle sad smile and a reminder of the duality of Eorzea.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Roysia Stone]] : Past lover of Leanne, the end of their relationship brought an awful amount of pain to Leanne, to the point she just wanted to forget everything. Recovered from the fallout though, Leanne still harbors a slight hint of affection towards Roysia.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Fio Arasgain]] : A man she considers cute and fun to talk with, his cross-dressing tendencies steal an amused smile from Leanne, in counterpart becoming embarrassed by his tendency to get more "touchy" than usual at times, either with requests of bed cuddling, or a single random peck at her lips that drove Leanne into a complete stuttering mess.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Koporo Aporo]] : A yet to be sultansworn Leanne chats with sometimes. She respects his determination, his idealism and chivalry, but thinks he should be a tad more calm.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Atrium Crow]] : An acquaintance Leanne met after the Crow incident. While she's fine with the woman, that doesn't change the fact that the seeker is wary of her, not because of her nature as an undead, but because of her lack of knowledge of how living beings work. Leanne deeply hopes that Atrium manages to fit in society, and is willing to help her do so.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Jameson Taeros]] : A man that Leanne deeply wishes to bring to justice, partly because of his wrongdoings, but mostly because of the wrongdoings towards her friends. Thinking of killing him at several moments, people reminds her every single time that she's not to be lost or have her soul tainted by the likes of people like him.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Evangeline Primrose]] : Firstly a friend, the woman who briefly considered Leanne as a love interest had a soft spot in the seeker's heart. Unfortunately, certain acts of Evangeline killed this softness Leanne had, and even more unfortunate, Leanne was under several turmoil, the dislike being amplified by a giant hate. Lately her hate is mostly gone, not only from lack of contact with the woman but also from Leanne reacquiring her positive outlook on life.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Arielia Ryella]] : Having met the woman midst a date with Eva, Leanne considered her a tad standoffish, and as such, avoided her whenever possibly. Midst Leanne's grump phase, she had a taste of the elezen's ego, which, combined with the eventual jealousy she harbored for her close friendship with Roysia, resulted into a giant, almost murderous hatred for her. Past her anger and dating times, the hate harbored significantly diminished, to the she can consider being friendly, albeit distant.

==Character==
===General===

At first glance, Val seems to be your typical, unkempt ruffian. He is usually dirty and seems to have a new scar or fresh bruise from day to day. Despite this, the Seeker almost always has a smile or mischievous little grin on his face, juxtaposed by the fine clothing he wears. This is generally kept to shirts, though he has been known to dress nice on rare occasions. Whether this is due to his own decision or thanks to the influence of his wife is anyone's guess. What he does compromise on is usually ruffled up or left untucked, and he seems to enjoy pairing whatever his she puts on him with a pair of kecks and gloves.

[[File:Tierval.jpg|400px|left|Val Nunh (Courtesy of Tiergan!)]]

===Appearance===

Val is your typical Miqo'te Seeker and stands a tad tall for his race, somewhere between 5'7" and 5'8". Though, this is hard to tell considering his slouched and relaxed posture. Ash blonde hair is brushed haphazardly away from an oval face marked with smooth planes and covers the long, slim ears arching over the Miqo'te's youthful visage. His brows are winged, the inner half of each slanted downward to give him an overall mischievous appearance. They're set over bi-colored eyes of blue and gold, both almond-shaped and with a long, faded scar bisecting the skin both above and below the right pale blue orb. A patrician nose is set above firm lips prone to mercurial changes of expression, and a faint touch of blonde stubble marks the curve of his chin.

His skin is tanned from his exposure to the sun and his overall build is slender and lean, showing an inclination to speed rather than strength. He can typically be seen wearing light leathers that give some protection and hinder movement as little as possible. A lance is typically strapped to his back, the tip bladed for slicing as well as piercing. The end of its metallic shaft is rounded for bludgeoning, if needed. The handle of a dagger can be seen protruding from the top of each of his boots.

===Behavior===

Due to Val's upbringing and typical way of life, he tends to lack any sort of manners or sense of control over himself. He's well known for saying the first thing that comes to his head without giving it a second thought. This often leads to offending those around him, admittedly most of it is on purpose. He enjoys pushing the boundaries of others around him and watching them try to cope with it. If it bothers them enough to fight him, it's just an added bonus. He is very determined and egotistical, far believing himself to be superior to most of those around him. He generally lets his cockiness and confidence speak for itself, which tends to get allow him to overpower most individuals or scare them off without actually lifting a finger himself.

He doesn't care for an obscene amount of wealth, just enough money for food, drink, and a place to sleep. Beyond that, he'd rather spend most of his time relaxing outside and enjoying the world around him. If he has a beautiful lady at his side? Even better! Companionship is certainly not required, nor does he desire to stay with any one lady in particular. He finds the notion of sticking with one woman when there are "so many flavors" to try to be absolutely absurd and ignorant to the point that he often laughs at those in monogamous relationships. Despite this, he gets particularly angry if someone moves in on a woman that he's especially fond of. This tends to lead to a lot of the aforementioned behavior. Though his general choice of words is colorful to say the least, when angered it becomes especially so. He shouts a great deal of obscenities and threats. If that doesn't work to make the other back off, he has full intent on making good on the given threats.

On top of all of this, Val also lacks trust in others. He expects most people, especially nobility, to be using him to further their own goals. Because of this, he rarely lets himself get close to another. It generally isn't an issue since his overall demeanor tends to repel most people. Those that can stand him long enough to gain his trust will find themselves in possession of a very trustworthy and thoroughly loyal ally. While he'll still have the tendency to joke around and "test" his friends, he will be far more willing to shut down that side of him and be far more considerate to those that have shown the ability to deal with his faults and prove him wrong. As far as emotions are concerned, Val tends to keep them to himself. Only those very nearest to him will truly know if he feels any sort of remorse for his actions or the things he does. He believes showing such to be a sign of weakness, and has thus managed to keep most of them under control. Except anger, of course. It's the one he's never quite been able to tame.

==Combat==
===General===
The best thing to say about Val when it comes to combat is that he loves doing it. He is incredibly prideful of his skill and believes that, beyond all else, beating someone in a fight proves that he is better than them. He also believes it solidifies his claim to be a Nunh, and each victory further proves such. Therefore, Val will do what he can to provoke others to a fight. If they back down, he feels that alone proves himself to be the better. Should they beat him, while his pride may be hurt, it instills with him to train harder until he's able to overcome his opponent.

Val wields a lance in combat, using it both as a piercing, slashing, and bludgeoning weapon. At times Val has the tendency to use it as a bo staff, taking clear advantage of its weighted ends in the process. He spends the majority of his time reading his opponent and goading an opening out of them. When he finds an opening or is able to discern the opponent's general style of fighting, Val will trade out his lance for his daggers and seek to end the battle as quickly as possible. He's been known to be a bit suicidal in this, willing to take a fatal strike if it means finishing off his opponent during dire situations.

He only fights honorably when he absolutely has to, feeling that "anything goes" in a real fight. Val frowns at the idea of using practice weapons because he feels there's no real danger in it and is prone to turning down any kind of healing. The wounds remind him of the mistakes made in battle. Val feels that it makes him much stronger to let them to heal on their own, allowing him to develop a better pain threshold.

==Tendencies==

[[File:ChibiValcolor.png|210px|right|Chibi Val (Courtesy of Lament!)]]
===Likes===
::* He enjoys being surrounded by beautiful women, especially his own.
::* When relaxing, he'll often order himself an alcoholic beverage. Anything will do, though he prefers the sweet taste of wine.
::* The sound of gil in his pouch. Not because he covets money, but because he knows he'll be able to eat and rest well that night.

===Dislikes===
::* White Knights. He actually finds them to be quite pathetic and prefers to simply watch most altercations from afar, if not antagonize them.
::* Val can't stand nobility, or those that descend from it due to their typical demeanor.
::* Anyone moving in on his "territory" (women). This almost always results in a fight or an argument.

===Hobbies/Talents===
::* Val is adept at combat and often seeks it out.
::* He can be particularly suave when he wants to, especially to the ladies that have his interest.
::* He's really good at pissing people off. That's a talent.. right?

===Other===
::* Telling Val that he can't do something is likely the quickest way to get him to try and prove that person wrong.
::* He actually respects relationships and will tend to stay away from those that are in one.
::* He is incredibly vengeful, and will often stop at nothing to get back at those who harmed him or those he holds dear.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Faye Covington]]''' - Val was first captivated not only by this ivory-haired Midlander's beauty, but by the challenge that presented itself in her capture. For better or worse the two often butt heads due to their thoroughly conflicting views, though that just serves to keep things interesting enough for Val to stick around. He was originally reluctant with the idea of sticking with one woman, but soon realized it would be the only way to claim her. Now that he's actually with her and she's supplying him with everything he could ask for, it leaves one to wonder exactly who caught who. Val's fondness and respect for the woman grow daily, and with them his fierce loyalty and willingness to do virtually anything she asks of him. Over time, it has managed to change him into a strong and loving companion. While many know that they are engaged, very few know that they've actually eloped and already wed.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]]''' - Over time, Val has come to view this honorable and steadfast Hellsguard as a great friend. It didn't quite start that way at first, of course. Originally, he assumed that her naivety would be her ultimate undoing. Through various friendly bouts, however, he has come to respect both the woman and the views that she holds. While he'd never openly admit it, all she need do is ask or come to him with an issue and he'd do what he could to assist her.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Yangh Linh]]''' - When he first met this Keeper, Val assumed that she was just trying to hit on him. She offered a drink and asked him to dance, then his pal Berrod quickly abandoned them. He expressed that he was already with a companion and the woman laughed it off, leaving Val thoroughly confused. Now after getting to know her, Val is incredibly protective of the woman he calls "Priestess". She is strong, not just mentally, but physically as well and has accepted Val as a Disciple of Menphina. The relationship is more motherly than anything, with Yangh doing her best to help Faye and keep the poor Seeker on the right track by constantly reprimanding him for his mistakes. Unbeknownst to many, she's also helping to sharpen his skills with his daggers and teaching him the ways of the assassin.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Berrod Armstrong]]''' - Things did not start off well with Berrod at all. For starters, the Highlander hit on his woman, which immediately put him on Val's list of enemies. They've come to blows several times, each eventually walking away with a victory. In their latest fight, a truce was called to (hopefully) put an end to their rivalry. Truth be told, the two have far more in common than either of them would likely admit. Val knows through their conflict that Berrod is certainly no pushover when it comes to fighting and, because of this, sees Berrod as an invaluable ally to have.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Alexandre Larille]]''' - Val happened upon the unconscious body of this Duskwight shortly after leaving his tribe. Having spent a rather great deal of time alone and not quite used to it, the Seeker stuck around long enough to nurse the Elezen back to health and enjoy the company while he could. For this, Alexandre apparently feels in debt to Val and the two have came to a mutual claim of friendship until such a debt is settled. Neither of them would speak of this, and Val certainly wouldn't admit to having a soft side.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> '''[[A’nzil Oenomaus]]''' - Val absolutely hates being burdened with tasks. The only thing he hates more than that is indentured servitude, especially of his own people. This is what brought Val to eventually accept the task of training A'nzil. Truth be told, the Seeker knows little about teaching others aside from how he was taught; with harsh, hands-on experience. He hopes to toughen A'nzil up through a series of battles, feeling that he's been coddled far too much.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kah'li Tayuun]]''' - Long before he and Faye were an item, Val hated this Keeper because he seemed to be trying to steal the lady out from under him. He would constantly ridicule Kah'li for being blind which often led to bickering between the two. Over time, the two became friends and even sparring partners, each trading victories. Val has come to respect the man, especially since he respects his relationship with Faye, and would do almost anything should he ever ask.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Dartanon Nobis]]''' - This self-proclaimed knight managed to interfere with Val's retribution on a man that tried to steal Faye from him. While Val was thoroughly hateful towards him at first, the relationship soon turned into something akin to a friendship. At least, until Val found that Dartanon was dating one of the Garleans that had attacked Faye. Since then he's kept the man at arm's length, not because he necessarily doesn't wish to be around him, but because Faye giving the order to exterminate the woman he's with will make cutting him down that much easier should he get in his way.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zularti Vensar]]''' - Val isn't quite sure what to make of this man aside from the fact that he shouldn't really be considered a man at all. He is brash, irrational, and thoroughly childlike. Why Faye follows him or entertains the idea of him being any sort of leader he'll never know, but he has decided to suffer through it in order to keep her happy.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Unknown Keeper of the Moon]]''' - There is little that Val knows about this dark skinned, dark haired Miqo'te Keeper of the Moon. What he does know is that she has the ability to assume the form of nearly anyone. She barged into his home shortly after Faye had been kidnapped and offered only to give her location and a cure for the poison currently afflicting him in exchange for his aether. When she left, Val was broken. He is now deathly afraid of her particular kind of Voidsent, as well as wary of any women that get near him in case they happen to be her returning for more.

==Character==

''The light can heal, or the light can burn.''

===General===

At first glance, Faye Covington is nothing more than a demure and lovely Midlander of the upper class and a vision in white. One could easily think her as haughty and superficial as your average spoiled rich girl, but the fair lady proves to be remarkably resilient and in control. Rather than a fragile damsel in distress, she is witty, and perhaps too ambitious for her own good.

===Name===
:'''Given Name:''' Faye Lunetta Rosalba Covington
:'''Nicknames and Aliases:''' Faye is often addressed as Lady Covington, Lady Faye, Saint Faye, Saint Covington, Miss Faye, Miss Covington, Mistress Covington, etc. or sometimes simply referred to as "boss" by her support priests in Harbingers of Dawn. Other nicknames she has earned for herself by specific individuals include Princess, Blondie, Blonde Bitch, the Snake in White, and Snowy.

===Appearance===

Faye stands rather tall for a Midlander woman at 5'8", weighing about 130 Ponz, and almost always carries herself with poise, grace and dignity, her shoulders squared, her back straight, and her head held high. Her skin is very pale and smooth, free of any freckles, scars, or blemishes. The woman's hair is long and straight, snowy white with faint hints of platinum blonde, bangs brushed to her left. Her face is oval-shaped with a small, wide, up-turned nose and plump, full pink lips. Her eyes are an icy blue, almond-shaped and lined with thick, dark eyelashes. Her eyebrows are the same ivory color as her hair, delicately arched and neat. Her earlobes are each pierced once, no other piercings or tattoos to be found on her body. Her frame is slender without being too bony or toned, with a small waist, average-sized breasts, and an hourglass figure. The Hyur has a calm and confident demeanor about her. She tends to wear jewelry, usually gold and pearls, and often opts for the more feminine, choosing dresses and skirts over shorts or pants. She wears cloth rather than any armors and is usually seen in white or pale colors. Her appearance is always neat and orderly, no wrinkles, not a speck of dirt, and not a hair out of place.

===Speech===

Her voice is smooth and melodic, her speaking tone just barely high-pitched enough to be considered soprano. Each word is clear and articulate, carefully pronounced and measured. Her normal speaking voice is soft without being meek or difficult to hear, but when she is giving out orders, the woman is commanding and able to be rather loud if she pleases. The tone of her voice can snap from demure young noblewoman to demanding leader in a single moment. Her speech is not overly formal, but is certainly not casual. She uses words most often to get her way and will therefore change her style of speech accordingly.

===Behavior===

Polite, mannerly, and charming, she prides herself on being a “proper lady.” Her confidence can often come across as haughtiness, but otherwise she seems fairly pleasant. She’s generally friendly, even if not particularly outspoken, but when someone irks her she can get a bit snippy. She usually keeps her calm and composure, only sometimes lending herself to annoyance or frustration, but any other emotional outbursts are rare. In the most terrifying of situations, she will often be merely alarmed rather than horrified, and when tragedy strikes it's rare to see her shed a tear. Most of her emotions are shallow and feigned, though she's skilled in coming across as genuine. Rarely does she lose her temper, but when she does, she is violently angry, venting her emotions through destructive means. Generally, she hides the emotions she does feel and feigns the emotions she shows, but rarely do others see through this façade. There are a few people, though, who she is (mostly) honest with in her emotions, but they are few and far between. She is incredibly stubborn and ambitious. She presents herself as being rather straightforward (never mind the tricky schemes that she’s probably plotting in her head) and she is rather charismatic. Though she sometimes likes to joke around, she usually refrains from crazy and silly antics, making her a bit of a stick in the mud at times. She has a strong sense of "honor," even if her moral code is unique to herself and somewhat baffling to others, with lying and manipulation apparently being acceptable to obtain an important enough goal. Her thinking is very much along the lines of "the end justifies the means."

Faye hates feeling weak and vulnerable and it is mostly for this reason that she is always seeking power, because she can’t stand seeing others superior to her. This can make her power hungry and overambitious. She is persuasive and manipulative, and she will use and hurt people to get what she wants with little hesitation. She is witty and even if she could win a fight, she would prefer to talk her way out of a situation rather than resort to violence. Rather aloof, she is a bit out of touch with other people and their emotions and ideals. Even if she does claim to care for someone, she will often still use him or her as a pawn to achieve her goals if she sees fit, even if she truly does care for that person. To her, most relationships are expendable. Though even if not always entirely loyal and kind to them, she is fiercely protective of those few people she actually does love, though sometimes it can lead her to be smothering, obsessive, or controlling. Because she dislikes vulnerability, she is rarely honest about her emotions and her intentions, regardless of whether they be good or bad.

Apparently a believer in the notion that knowledge is power, she is often curious and dislikes not knowing things. She tends to be self-righteous and often lectures other people on their manners, morals, honor, or other behaviors. She doesn’t like to be tied down by relationships or responsibilities to others. No matter how close a relationship may seem, most are only superficial on the Hyur's end. She is very vengeful when she feels she's been wronged. Though it’s difficult for her, she tries not to cause mischief, meddle in others’ affairs, or smite a few sinners “for the sake of the greater good,” but she always eventually slips up. Whether Faye is truly malevolent or good in nature is hard to determine. Mostly, she remains in neutral ground.

:'''Motivations:''' Helping those in need and helping herself. Ambitious, she seeks power above all else and wants to rule all that she can, but she intends to use that power to make the world a better place, even if also to satisfy her own wants.

:'''Disposition:''' Calm, charming, polite, and usually friendly, but a bit aloof, not above snark and sarcasm, and catty when annoyed.

:'''Outlook:''' All is justified for the greater good.

===Positive Personality Traits===

Charming, charismatic, confident, intelligent, persuasive, eloquent, mannerly, polite, ambitious, generous, sympathetic, and usually keeps calm and collected. Fiercely protective if those she truly cares for.

===Negative Personality Traits===

Manipulative, aloof, scheming, dishonest, secretive, self-righteous, conflicted, conceited, superficial, prideful, a bit of a stick-in-the-mud, and tends to "snap" if she is finally provoked to anger.

==Combat==

Faye rarely fights unless she must, not viewing her magic or violence as things that should be used for sport or trivial matters. When she does fight, she wields her magic fiercely, seeking to end the battle as quickly as possible. For a conjurer, her destructive magic is especially strong (the downside being her healing is lacking). She usually goes fully on the assault, more of an offensive fighter than defensive. Not much of a brawler to begin with, she is not well-educated in tactics and her anger often gets the better of her in combat. Particularly strange for a spellcaster, she is prone to going into a berserker-like rages. She is quick, but not quite as nimble as a trained fighter, and has little physical strength.

==Relationships==
===Family===

:'''Selene Covington:''' - Deceased. Faye's mother, a golden-haired Midlander noblewoman. She was killed in a Garlean raid upon the Covington Manor in front of Faye's own eyes. She was strict, vain, and overbearing, but despite it all a kind and generous woman and a doting mother.

:'''Nicholas Covington/Stanislas Corinthius:''' - Faye's father, a Hyur man who was a skilled fighter and tactician, and quickly rose up the ranks of the Order of the Twin Adder to become a general. He was a stern and serious man, and often too busy with work to spend time with his family, but like most father's he had a particular soft spot for his little girl. He ushered Faye to safety when their home was attacked and then was killed along with Selene, or so Faye believed. It turns out her father wasn't quite the man she thought.

:'''Aelius Corinthius:''' - Faye's half-brother from her father's "double life" who she only recently learned existed. The white-haired Hyur warrior is only a couple years older than his sister. He seems to want to connect with his sister and win her over to his side. It's not working. Despite her distaste for the man, the siblings do have much in common.

:'''Valerius Corinthius:''' - Faye's younger half-brother and little brother to Aelius. Still only a toddler. Faye has never met him, but learned of his existence at the same time she learned of Aelius.

===Enemies===

The Garlean Empire, Voidsent, Voidtouched, Ascians, Leviathan, the Sahagin. Criminals, evildoers, anyone who hurts those she loves (even if it be accidental or justified), and anyone who gets between her and a goal.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Val Nunh]]''' - An ill-mannered Seeker of the Sun who Faye hired as her bodyguard, though after a few tumultuous weeks the two soon became lovers. She was attracted to Val not only for his good looks, but for his honesty, strength, and straight-forwardness, as well as a personality that was quite... refreshing compared to what the upper-class Midlander was accustomed. Quite a mismatched couple, the two look like total opposites at first glance, but they seem to get along quite swimmingly, despite Faye's constant lecturing Val, Val's constant embarrassing Faye, and the bickering it all brings. Faye is thoroughly enamored with the man, genuinely loving and fiercely loyal. It was no easy task convincing the Nunh to try a life of monogamy, but the challenge only further intrigued the Hyur. Due to their stubbornness and conflicting beliefs, the two butt heads frequently, but can never stay mad at each other for long. The two claim to be engaged, though they have already secretly eloped.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font>'''[[Zularti Vensar]]''' - A young midlander man the same age as Faye who drew her attention with his strength and ambition after she saved him from the Sahagin. With his family--and for that matter his entire village--deceased, Tempered, or missing, Faye's family took him in and raised him as their own for the remainder of his teenage years. She found in him someone easy to manipulate, and through him she has been controlling the free company he leads, Harbingers of Dawn, from behind the scenes. Unfortunately, for him to be useful, he needs to be alive, and keeping the act-first, think-later man alive is not easy. Faye spends a lot of time tailing the dragoon and keeping him out trouble only for him to, quite understandably, snap at her the way a teenager would treat his nagging mom. Despite this, through her time spent with him, she does seem to actually care for the man and treats him as family. She considers him a brother and is fiercely protective of him, though rarely will she swallow her pride enough to admit it in front of most people.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font>'''[[R'aenah Ihari]]''' - A Miqo'te woman who made a bad first impression on Faye by insulting her before even speaking to her and talking about her with Val as if Faye was not seated right next to them. Despite what appeared to be a few attempts at kindness on R'aenah's behalf, any efforts toward making peace were quickly forgotten with more insults, what Faye deemed as the woman's seriously lacking social graces, and the Miqo'te's public displays of affection toward Val even when he was on bodyguard duty. Regardless of Faye's efforts to act tolerant of R'aenah in public, if she were hanging from a cliff with her life in jeopardy, Faye would refuse to help her... in fact, she may give her a gentle push.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]]''' - A Hellsguard who Val seems to respect and trust, Faye also found respect for the woman due to her honor and honesty, despite the Hyur finding Siobhain's methods and hobbies rather brutish. However, though Faye knows well that the Roegadyn's heart is in the right place, being the private and proud person that she is, Faye finds Siobhain's meddling in her affairs to be aggravating. Disliking the idea that she could be pitied or thought a damsel in distress, Faye was annoyed when Siobhain tried to fight a man who unwantedly kissed Faye on her behalf and claimed she would take Faye as her charge if victorious when Faye wanted no such thing.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Kah'li Tayuun]]''' - A blind Keeper of the Moon who "sees" with the help of the Aether, Faye finds the Miqo'te to be rational and respectable, and therefore good company. Faye enjoys his rather calm demeanor and rejoices at having some civil company with whom to share a cup of tea. She does not know him particularly well, but finds him to be kind and level-headed, a refreshing contrast to the people by which she is often surrounded, and earned much respect for him when he stuck up for her when she felt she had been mistreated by Val and R'aenah one evening at the Quicksand.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Karaan Nolan]]''' - One of Faye's colleagues, a Midlander and the former Strategy Saint of Harbingers of Dawn. She believes he's likely a good man and intelligent enough, but his negative attitude has made her view him as someone who is pessimistic and dwells too much on the past. She has a cautious trust for the man as he has proven helpful in numerous situation, yet she is unsure of his motives and knows he is not solely loyal to her.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font>'''[[Dartanon Nobis]]''' - A Miqo'te and budding Dragoon Faye met when he tried to intercept a fight between Val and Tobias, though she and Val soon befriended him. Despite being initially annoyed at his white knight behavior, she quickly came to appreciate his desire to be noble and do what is right, even if it took him out of the good graces of others or brought him harm. She viewed him as someone honest and honorable, but her opinion of him drastically changed when he eventually admitted he had been romantically involved with a Garlean woman who once ambushed Faye and Val.

: <font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Barbarccia Valadis]]''' - A Keeper of the Moon who was once something of an arch-nemesis of Faye. The two were likely plotting each others' demise until they came to a compromise over a cup of tea and realized that even if their approaches may differ, their goals and intentions are the same. Though they still often do not see eye-to-eye, they seem to have a sort friendship, alliance, and a mutual respect for each other.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''Unknown Keeper of the Moon''' - A woman who attacked Faye while she was being held in a Garlean prison, and then immediately sought out Val and forced herself upon him in the same manner. The woman possessed obviously unnatural abilities. Faye only knows the Keeper woman by face, not by name, and hasn't seen her since, but Faye resents her and since the incident she has developed a specific, passionate hatred and wariness of anything pertaining to the Void.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''Unknown Midlander Man''' - A masked man and powerful mage who offered Faye an antidote when Val was poisoned if she would willingly surrender herself to Garlemald. Faye reluctantly agreed, having no other options but to watch Val suffer and slowly die. He likewise tormented Faye while she was imprisoned and was present for the Keeper woman's assault on Faye, and even was the one who ordered it. He seems to be the Keeper woman's 'Master.' Faye did not learn his name and his voice was obscured. He seems to have some respect from the Garleans, but due to his ability to wield magic is obviously not a pure-blooded Garlean himself.

::* "She's always surrounded by men. I wonder if she's some type of harlot, or if she just has that many suitors."
::* "A real rich type, yeah? Though I hear her family, their estate, and their fortune are all gone."

===Moderate Rumors===
::* "She's someone important in that free company she's in... Something-or-other's of Dawn."

::* "I've seen her hanging all over that one rambunctious Miqo'te. You know, the one always yelling at pretty girls."
::* "That Seeker she's always with causes fights all the time. I've heard he's her bodyguard, but I think they're sleeping together."

===Rare Rumors===
::* "She always seemed like such a polite and dainty thing, but she has a nasty tongue on her and the forcefulness of a man if y'make her mad! I was shocked. Wonder if she has the fire-power to back up her attitude."
::* "I've heard rumors she's on the run from Imperial Soldiers. What would the Garlean Empire want with her?"
::* "She's always following that careless dragoon around and bailing him out of trouble. What's his name? Z-something? Is she in love with him or what?"

==History/Timeline==

TBA

==Affiliations==

Faye is a member of Harbingers of Dawn, a free company under the [[Order of the Twin Adder]] that is dedicated to protecting and aiding the citizens of Eorzea. She presides as Support Saint, the officer in the company who oversees those who wish to pursue first and foremost the acts of healing and/or helping others through acts of kindness and charity. The support branch serves as something of the "face" of the company and the bridge to the people of Eorzea. Despite being only an officer of the organization, her manipulation of the leader, Zularti, grants her great influence over the actions of Harbingers, and due to his rather disorganized and carefree nature, she's often left doing a large portion of the work for the company, specifically paperwork, planning and sorting out details, and cleaning up Zularti's messes.

Jaques: /* PC Rumors */

''"Conjurers are not the only ones capable of granting succor. Who remains behind once that healer realizes nothing more can be done, and the deathly ill or wounded are left to their fate? No, a part of my task is to sing those ailing souls to their rest and grant them peace enough to let go of their worldly fetters. 'Tis the least I can do when others turn away."'' ~ Ciel Wulfe

=History=

Having been born and raised in Gridania, Ciel has a deeply ingrained appreciation for the Twelveswood and Her many wild inhabitants. Her parents frequently encouraged her to pursue the path of a Conjurer due to a knack for hearing the occasional whisper from the wood, but she never felt it would be her true calling.

Early on, she discovered a love for the bow and often stole into the Quiver's Hold to watch the archers practice. She would also sometimes "borrow" a bow to practice, only to snap herself with the string time and again. Spindly arms aren't great for shooting effectively, but time and persistence saw her growing in strength and skill, and the accidental self-flagilations became less of a problem.

Likewise, despite her parents discouraging her from talking to adventurers from abroad, Ciel often found herself enthralled with their stories when they passed through Gridania. Tales of courage, romance, monster-slaying -- and so many of those were embellished for the sake of entertainment value , but she didn't care. It set a spark of interest within her for a taste of the outside world.

Her own adventures, when she became old enough, led her all over Eorzea with a variety of people. Some became dear to her, as siblings she never had. She had always been fed on the belief that outsiders weren't worth the time, that the people of the other nations were selfish and insular when, in truth and with time, she looked back on her own kind and saw these same flaws. Seeing the world with her own eyes meant learning many more truths, and she came to settle in Ul'dah with her comrades. She still longed for the Twelveswood, but not for the city of her birth.

Ciel eventually followed the same calling as her comrades, but rather than returning to Gridania to join the Twin Adders, she consigned herself to the Immortal Flames. This not only paid well for a while, but it kept her busy. Some of the missions she was sent on, however, became more and more troubling and she soon found herself at Carteneau. Even arriving there was a grim matter, but regret never truly set in until she got into the thick of the fray and watched her companions fall - often messily - one by one.

The coming of Bahamut, and then becoming engulfed in a brilliant white light... these were the last things she experienced before finding herself suddenly in one of the cities again. She felt like she had been asleep for a long time, and had awoken with a mind rattled by hazy nightmares.

(For more history, see the story post The Long Road Home)

=Personality=

Ciel is, by and large, a gentle woman in spite of her experiences before and since the Calamity. Having been raised by loving parents, with open eyes and an open mind, she lacks the haughty, self-important bearing witnessed in some of her brethren, and she is usually open to meeting and befriending people from all races and walks of life. Diversity is life, itself, and everyone has a place in it.

Her willingness to associate with others, however, belies an underlying feeling of distrust toward people she hardly knows. This is something which has only begun developing over recent months, and which takes a great deal of effort to get around. Although she tries her best to understand others and their motives, if she believes she has been deceived, it can be extremely difficult to win back her trust. Her insecurity about letting others in can be cause for confusion on her own part and lead to closing herself off emotionally, which only compounds what might as well be a self-imposed loneliness.

Regardless of her personal reservations, she will often go out of her way to help others where and when it is needed, and being a part of the Sword and Rose Order has gone a long way to enable this. As such, she has no tolerance for injustice or for those who would abuse the weak, and those who do will find this normally calm woman's temper.

=Relationships=
__NOTOC__

==Family==

*'''Father: Josseloux Sauveterre''' - A talented lancer and instructor with the Wood Wailers. While he had retired from active duty ten summers prior to the Calamity, he felt obligated to aid in the defense of Gridania against Imperial incursion. He lost his life in battle.

*'''Mother: Pienne Sauveterre''' - The one from whom Ciel inherited her gentleness. As a Conjurer, she was the first to encourage Ciel to enroll with Stillglade Fane. Distraught over the loss of Josseloux, and believing her daughter lost at Carteneau, Pienne fled deep into the Twelveswood and took her own life.

==The Wulfegard==

Wulfegard was the name of the Flames unit she was assigned to prior to and during the Battle of Carteneau. Aside from herself, all other members of the unit were presumed to have been wiped out during the battle and/or Bahamut's attack. Characters marked as Presumed Deceased can be taken up by anyone willing to play them. This list is under construction.

*'''Morithan Wulfegard''' (PC) - Commander of the unit and the the one responsible for giving it its name. A Hyur Highlander of advanced age, an honorable "knight" if there ever was one. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

*'''Chavi Banzai''' (Presumed Deceased) - A Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te, U'Chavi Tia, known to the Pugilist's guild as Chavi Banzai, the Screaming Fist. Quick to laugh, and even quicker with his fists as well as his feet. He became known for flying off the top rope of fighting rings, running up walls, and doing backflips.

==Everyone Else==

'''''Disclaimer:''' The notes below are purely in character and are not influenced at all by OOC, or how well I know anyone outside of RP. If you're not listed here, it's nothing personal. Either I've forgotten for some reason or your character hasn't made enough of an impression yet for Ciel to form an opinion.''

*[[Aerostein Epitaph]] - Ciel considers Aero a good friend and is grateful for his assistance with setting one of her ghosts to rest. She would do anything in her power to help him if he needed it.

*[[Jaques Guillaume]] - Vaughn's other half, though she doesn't know him quite as well. He's gruff and serious, but his intentions are just.

*'''Jonathan Grayve''' - A Duskwight and former knight with a knack for invention. Although it took some time before she had enough of an understanding of who he was to fully invest her trust in him, the two have become inseparable and begun discussing possibilities for the future.

*[[Kaine Merloup]] - The charming Captain of the Raven's Claw. Counted among her most trusted friends, if Kaine ever needed her help with anything he would have only to ask.

*[[Kale Aideron]] - Kale and Ciel have often clashed due to misunderstanding, but circumstances have left her a great deal of respect for the Hyur. When the chips are down, he will make the tough decisions for everyone's sake. She would trust the man with her life.

*[[Oni De'phor]] and '''Raiden''' - A young Hyur and his unlikely, and often unseen, companion. Hopefully he and Raiden are staying out of trouble, and Raiden is leaving enough cake for everyone.

*[[Vaughn Antain]] - As beautiful as he is talented, Vaughn is a dear friend. His concern for the lives of others sometimes caused their paths to cross, and now Oschon has led Ciel to Vaughn's door that they might work together more closely.

*[[Yvelont Navarre]] - She met this gentleman following a brief, rained-out performance in Gridania one day and instantly found him familiar, but she could not place why. Bits and pieces of scattered memory clarified that familiarity amidst recurring dreams of Carteneau. As a Conjurer, his was the last life she tried to save. He is a trusted friend.

== Other Connections ==

You may know, or know of, Ciel if one of the following is true:

*She was one of two performers at the First Annual Royal Ball. If you were there, you might have seen or heard her sing.

*She frequents the taverns in the three main cities, sometimes simply to relax and watch people, other times to sing for the small audiences they offer. Most often, she can be found at the Quicksand.

*She has also become a regular at Coffer & Coffin tavern nights.

*You lived in Gridania or were associated with Stillglade Fane up to two years prior to the Calamity. She may have had some old friends there. Feel free to send me a /tell in game if you're one of them.

=Rumors=
==Common Rumors==

*"Elezen lass? Eyes like emeralds, hair as white as mountain rime? Aye, I've seen 'er. They say she's got a heavenly voice, but I've yet to hear it for m'self."

*"Aw, she's a sweetheart. Might be in her best interest, anyroad, if she did more to secure that shirt o' hers, lest she draw attention she's not wanting, if you know what I mean." -Wymond

==Moderate Rumors==

*"I've... I've heard she rides a coeurl. How does anyone tame such a beast to be ridden like a chocobo??"

*"She was singing at the Quicksand one evening and I offered her a cactus flower as a tip for one of her songs. I don't know what it was, but she seemed... not ''ungrateful'', but kind of sad for it. You'd think I put a dead sparrow in her hat or something, for as reluctant as she was to take it." -- random Tia botanist

==Rare Rumors==
*"Used to be a Conjurer, that one. She left out of Gridania about a year or two before the Calamity, then disappeared for five..."

*"I heard this beautiful voice one night while I was on patrol in the Wood. Couldn't find the source at first, but there she was sitting beside the waterfall, bearing her soul to the night. I'm afraid I startled her... could've been an Ixal for all she knew. She dashed for cover when she heard me coming." -- A young Wood Wailer

*"That one is an angel of death. She arrived amidst a rain storm, not long after grandpere fell ill. Mayhap it was a mistake inviting her inside to dry off and rest the night. She asked to play her harp for grandpere, as payment for the hospitality. ...He passed on by sunrise, albeit peacefully. The lass left before anyone else awoke, and with nary a sound..." -- Nervous refugee

*"Strange coincidence, but she reminded me of someone else who enlisted with the flames some seven summers ago. Same first name, but different family name... couldn't possibly be the same person." -- Immortal Flames recordkeeper

*"She's in the Quicksand often enough. It looked like a fight was brewing - yet again - a couple suns ago, and she shouted twice to try and get people to take it outside. Imagine my surprise later when some of the patrons who had been sitting right by her came up to the counter with cracked wine glasses! No other table saw this happen with theirs..." -- Momodi

== PC Rumors ==

((Feel free to add!))

*'''The songstress? I don't know what she's looking for, but I hope she finds it.''' -A grim guardian

*"A bard, aye, she is that. If that woman is just a poet, though, then I'm the bloody emperor of all Eorzea. That woman is in possession of a keen philosopher's mind and callouses on her fingers from strings far more taut than a harp. I imagine many a man who disregarded her as a songstress has wound up with a look of surprise being the last expression he ever wore." - Corbeaux Baptiste

*''"Miss Ciel? Yeah, I know her. She's so pretty and graceful. Also to note she has a great taste in style. I'm dieing to hear her sing too, she's really talented I hear."'' - [[Aerostein Epitaph]]

*"Have you not heard her songs of virtue? Her voice brings light to the darkest dungeon. I should know, I've seen her crescendo physically tear monsters apart." - [[Dresden Voltaire]]

*"Truly.. Miss Ciel.. I.. don't think I've met anyone like her! She sits by her harp so.. elegant, her voice gentle, her singing soothing, and never fazed by so many surrounding her! I was.. very much startled when I once saw her... pet, though. ..Eh? 'What pet?!' N-No! It's nothing!" - [[Mylene Wharf]]
*"Ciel? She's awesome, that's all I'm gonna say. She's skilled with a bow from what I hear, and she's hell'uve attractive. She's also a pretty promising songstress." [[Oscare Iono]]

*"Lady Ciel is perfect. She is my idol." - [[Clara Kleefeld]]

*"Ah, she's just...nice, yeah. I...Twelves, I 'ave more to say, if I bloody knew 'ow to word it..." - [[Kale Aideron]]

*"Ciel Wulfe. It is two names. 'Ciel' is friend and family. She is smaller and quiet. 'Wulf' is my mommy. She is strong and love. Ciel Wulfe is not these people. She is 'Songstress.' She is magic. She is mystery. Not find her with Ciel and Wulf before. Very suspicious. She has secret." - [[Flickering Ember]]

*"Quick, efficient, and doesn't bat an eye that I'm Duskwight. Has even taken one as a lover. What's not to like?" - [[Jaques Guillaume]]

*"Ah, lady Ciel! She's sung some very lovely songs at the pilgrimages. She seems to collect very odd men though. Like mister Kage." - [[Ojune Wajune]]

=IC Quotes and Trivia=

==IC Quotes==

'''Llaine Tetheros''' - "You're very concerned about the bat getting in between your breasts, aren't you?"

'''Ciel''' - "If I wanted anything crawling in between them, Miss, I would date more often."

---------------

'''On the subject of love:''' "'Tis a potent drogue, to be sure. Once had, one wonders how they ever did without it. And then the withdrawal pains once 'tis gone... which leave one wondering why they ever thought it was a good idea to begin with."

==Trivia==

*She does not discuss Thierremont. (see The Long Road Home, linked in the Writings section)

*Her hair used to be much longer, but she cut it back to her shoulders right before leaving Gridania after Thierremont's death. Some cultures hold that the cutting of one's hair symbolizes grief, but also a rite of passage or letting go of something in one's past.

*She named her coeurl mount Mille Feuilles. Not only is it the name of her favorite Gridanian dessert, but it also means "Thousand Leaves" or "Many Layers". She thought of the name after she noticed the way the ridges on the couerl's neck and limbs looks like overlapping layers, or leaves.

*She is a mezzo-soprano.

*Ciel is a very pious person and can often be found in places known to be sacred to the Twelve. She will sometimes collect small tokens as offerings for when she goes to these places, leaving them at whatever might pass for an altar, for each has their place in the grand scheme of things and should be paid their due respects. Among her favorite things to collect are nuts, seeds, and fresh plant cuttings - anything she can cultivate and offer to Nophica, the Matron - and she will happily accept these things in lieu of gil or other tokens of wealth when she sings in public.

*Yep, Ciel's current last name is not lore-centric. Her family name is actually Sauveterre, which translates similarly to "safe haven". She took the last name Wulfe as her way of honoring the first Company she went with to Carteneau, the Wulfegard. To the best of her knowledge, all other members of the Company died that day.

*Ciel still carries the bow she earned when she actively served among the Immortal Flames, and of course she's given it an appropriate name: Star-crossed Serenade.

Bits and pieces of scattered memory clarified that familiarity amidst recurring dreams of Carteneau. As a Conjurer, his was the last life she tried to save. He is a trusted friend.

=Rumors=
==Common Rumors==

*"Elezen lass? Eyes like emeralds, hair as white as mountain rime? Aye, I've seen 'er. They say she's got a heavenly voice, but I've yet to hear it for m'self."

*"Aw, she's a sweetheart. Might be in her best interest, anyroad, if she did more to secure that shirt o' hers, lest she draw attention she's not wanting, if you know what I mean." -Wymond

==Moderate Rumors==

*"I've... I've heard she rides a coeurl. How does anyone tame such a beast to be ridden like a chocobo??"

*"She was singing at the Quicksand one evening and I offered her a cactus flower as a tip for one of her songs. I don't know what it was, but she seemed... not ''ungrateful'', but kind of sad for it. You'd think I put a dead sparrow in her hat or something, for as reluctant as she was to take it." -- random Tia botanist

==Rare Rumors==
*"Used to be a Conjurer, that one. She left out of Gridania about a year or two before the Calamity, then disappeared for five..."

*"I heard this beautiful voice one night while I was on patrol in the Wood. Couldn't find the source at first, but there she was sitting beside the waterfall, bearing her soul to the night. I'm afraid I startled her... could've been an Ixal for all she knew. She dashed for cover when she heard me coming." -- A young Wood Wailer

*"That one is an angel of death. She arrived amidst a rain storm, not long after grandpere fell ill. Mayhap it was a mistake inviting her inside to dry off and rest the night. She asked to play her harp for grandpere, as payment for the hospitality. ...He passed on by sunrise, albeit peacefully. The lass left before anyone else awoke, and with nary a sound..." -- Nervous refugee

*"Strange coincidence, but she reminded me of someone else who enlisted with the flames some seven summers ago. Same first name, but different family name... couldn't possibly be the same person." -- Immortal Flames recordkeeper

*"She's in the Quicksand often enough. It looked like a fight was brewing - yet again - a couple suns ago, and she shouted twice to try and get people to take it outside. Imagine my surprise later when some of the patrons who had been sitting right by her came up to the counter with cracked wine glasses! No other table saw this happen with theirs..." -- Momodi

((Feel free to add!))

*'''The songstress? I don't know what she's looking for, but I hope she finds it.''' -A grim guardian

*"A bard, aye, she is that. If that woman is just a poet, though, then I'm the bloody emperor of all Eorzea. That woman is in possession of a keen philosopher's mind and callouses on her fingers from strings far more taut than a harp. I imagine many a man who disregarded her as a songstress has wound up with a look of surprise being the last expression he ever wore." - Corbeaux Baptiste

*''"Miss Ciel? Yeah, I know her. She's so pretty and graceful. Also to note she has a great taste in style. I'm dieing to hear her sing too, she's really talented I hear."'' - [[Aerostein Epitaph]]

*"Have you not heard her songs of virtue? Her voice brings light to the darkest dungeon. I should know, I've seen her crescendo physically tear monsters apart." - [[Dresden Voltaire]]

*"Truly.. Miss Ciel.. I.. don't think I've met anyone like her! She sits by her harp so.. elegant, her voice gentle, her singing soothing, and never fazed by so many surrounding her! I was.. very much startled when I once saw her... pet, though. ..Eh? 'What pet?!' N-No! It's nothing!" - [[Mylene Wharf]]
*"Ciel? She's awesome, that's all I'm gonna say. She's skilled with a bow from what I hear, and she's hell'uve attractive. She's also a pretty promising songstress." [[Oscare Iono]]

*"Lady Ciel is perfect. She is my idol." - [[Clara Kleefeld]]

*"Ah, she's just...nice, yeah. I...Twelves, I 'ave more to say, if I bloody knew 'ow to word it..." - [[Kale Aideron]]

*"Ciel Wulfe. It is two names. 'Ciel' is friend and family. She is smaller and quiet. 'Wulf' is my mommy. She is strong and love. Ciel Wulfe is not these people. She is 'Songstress.' She is magic. She is mystery. Not find her with Ciel and Wulf before. Very suspicious. She has secret." - [[Flickering Ember]]

*"Quick, efficient, and doesn't bat an eye that I'm Duskwight. Is even taken one as a lover. What's not to like?" - [[Jaques Guillaume]]

*"Ah, lady Ciel! She's sung some very lovely songs at the pilgrimages. She seems to collect very odd men though. Like mister Kage." - [[Ojune Wajune]]

=IC Quotes and Trivia=

==IC Quotes==

'''Llaine Tetheros''' - "You're very concerned about the bat getting in between your breasts, aren't you?"

'''Ciel''' - "If I wanted anything crawling in between them, Miss, I would date more often."

---------------

'''On the subject of love:''' "'Tis a potent drogue, to be sure. Once had, one wonders how they ever did without it. And then the withdrawal pains once 'tis gone... which leave one wondering why they ever thought it was a good idea to begin with."

==Trivia==

*She does not discuss Thierremont. (see The Long Road Home, linked in the Writings section)

*Her hair used to be much longer, but she cut it back to her shoulders right before leaving Gridania after Thierremont's death. Some cultures hold that the cutting of one's hair symbolizes grief, but also a rite of passage or letting go of something in one's past.

*She named her coeurl mount Mille Feuilles. Not only is it the name of her favorite Gridanian dessert, but it also means "Thousand Leaves" or "Many Layers". She thought of the name after she noticed the way the ridges on the couerl's neck and limbs looks like overlapping layers, or leaves.

*She is a mezzo-soprano.

*Ciel is a very pious person and can often be found in places known to be sacred to the Twelve. She will sometimes collect small tokens as offerings for when she goes to these places, leaving them at whatever might pass for an altar, for each has their place in the grand scheme of things and should be paid their due respects. Among her favorite things to collect are nuts, seeds, and fresh plant cuttings - anything she can cultivate and offer to Nophica, the Matron - and she will happily accept these things in lieu of gil or other tokens of wealth when she sings in public.

*Yep, Ciel's current last name is not lore-centric. Her family name is actually Sauveterre, which translates similarly to "safe haven". She took the last name Wulfe as her way of honoring the first Company she went with to Carteneau, the Wulfegard. To the best of her knowledge, all other members of the Company died that day.

*Ciel still carries the bow she earned when she actively served among the Immortal Flames, and of course she's given it an appropriate name: Star-crossed Serenade.

:'''Height:''' 5'0"

:'''Hair:''' Red. For many years, she's made a habit of straightening her hair and keeping it up in a ponytail. Lately, however, when not on the field, she's taken to leaving it down and letting it keep its natural curl.

:'''Eyes:''' Her left eye is a blue-gray and her right is blue-green. As a Sun Seeker, she has slitted, cat-like pupils.

:'''Mouth:''' Her often painted lips can usually be found in a mischievous smirk.

:'''Complexion:''' As she spends an unnecessary amount of time on her appearance, Xenedra's skin is what she'd like to call "perfect." Her complexion is pale, but rosy.

:'''Build:''' Xenedra's preferred place in battle involves the bow and song, leaving her with a lean build over all, but curves in all the right places.

:'''Voice:''' As a practiced songstress and storyteller, Xenedra tends to speak with a lot of expressiveness. Meanwhile, as a practiced flirt, she tends to croon as she speaks in a lower, smooth tone that one might describe as sultry.

:'''Style:''' She prefers dressier or more fashionable clothing and she goes through pains to keep her hair immaculate. Her favorite colors to wear are blue, red, black and white and she has a secret fondness for flowers and bells as accessories. She has been known to outright tell people in public that their outfits are terrible, but then also takes these people shopping to pick them out better outfits. Because of this, a number of people have turned to her for fashion advice and often.

:'''Misc:''' She lacks the markings that a lot of Miqo'te sport, so if one were to ignore the obvious tail, eyes and slitted pupils, she could pass for a Hyur woman. Often she catches herself humming aloud without meaning to when at ease. If a scent won't interfere with a mission, she loves to wear perfume. Her favorites are clove and blood orange.

==<div style="padding-left: 5px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-top: 3px; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-color: rgb(51, 102, 153); line-height: 1.3em"><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif">'''Personality'''</span></div>==
[[File:Xenhey.png‎|right|540px]]
:At any given time it's not unlikely to find Xenedra flitting about, flirting and grinning about some mischief she's making. Some of her favorite past-times include attempting to embarrass people (in a mostly good-natured fashion) and playing little (mostly harmless) jokes on the unsuspecting. Throwing people out of their comfort zone is something she just can't help but find amusing. She is a very physical person and thinks very little about the implications of physical contact. This sometimes leads to confusion on the part of "suitors," but, despite being fatally flirtatious, she does attempt to be very clear about her intentions. She has been known to break hearts, but she prefers to avoid it, though she would never admit to this softer side.

:Some have exasperatedly told her that she is never serious, and while this is close to the truth, it's not entirely accurate. When necessary, she can be deadly serious. Necessary usually constitutes a nasty monster in need of trouncing, a serious mission, or a treasured friend in dire straights. She may come across as fickle and shallow at times in regards to people, but when a person earns her trust she is fiercely loyal.

:'''Alignment:''' Chaotic Neutral

:'''Morals:''' For Xenedra morals are a set of rules other people follow out of guilt and for the most part, she prefers to do as she pleases. Thankfully, her whims don't usually involve screwing over people who didn't already deserve it, at least in her eyes.<br/>

:*'''Romancing the Moon''' - One version of the story of blossoming love between Oschon and Menphina <spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">We begin with Oschon, one very near and dear to many of us here. As we wander, he watches over us, but who guides his foot falls? One might argue that The Navigator is well suited to such a task, but no. Oschon creates his own path, with only the Sun and Moon to light his way.

Throughout the day he'd make his way across the land, feet pointed in whatever direction felt natural to him at the moment and now and then he'd cast an appreciative glance at lovely Azeyma. The golden goddess rarely had time to acknowledge her celestial peer though, busy as she was filling the day with radiance for the multitudes of men and women working away. As she'd pass from his view they'd exchange a brief bow and that was that. His respect for the elder sister, then fell to the younger as she took her turn lighting his path.

Gentle Menphina would follow Azeyma's blazing path across the then-blank sky, her light only a pale glow in comparison, but a comfort to Oschon after the day's bustle. Menphina, her attentions not torn by the masses like her sister, also had the time to exchange words with him. Across the spans and centuries and eons, since they all began to walk their paths, whether straight or meandering, that is precisely what the two did. Each night, as Azeyma took her leave, Menphina would hurry into the sky to meet with Oschon and they spoke about wishes and dreams, fears and desires. Oschon came to understand that blushing, luminous Menphina was very much like himself. A solitary soul wandering across her sky, guiding others, but never asking anything for herself. This struck him like a bow string snapping in hand, along with one even more startling revelation. He loved her. Quiet, giving Menphina had accomplished the impossible: she had stopped The Wanderer in his tracks.

But he didn't stay still for long. Feelings realized, Oschon set out to find the path into the sky. WHAT path into the sky, you might say, but certainly if such a thing DOES exist, OSCHON should be able to find it, right? And find it he did, in a far off mountain range amongst the ice and snow, hidden and indistinguishable to the mortal eye. But THAT is a story for another day. Establishing his footing on the unfamiliar blackness, he set out resolutely for Menphina's soft glow.

He found her with her knees curled to her chest, feeble sobs shaking her bent form. Shock stilled Oschon for the second time, before he rushed to her side and pulled her to him.

"Dear Menphina, what has happened?" he pressed gently, tilting her chin up to meet his gaze.

In her eyes he met with surprise and quickly blossoming relief.

"You had gone! Disappeared for so long and I'd feared..." the thought died on her lips as she realized he was WITH her.

"You're..!" she gasped.

"The reason I was gone. The way here is not easy to find."

His words and his smile soothed her and for a time they simply held one another.

Eventually he spoke, "I cannot stay, not forever, you know this..."

And of course he could not, the Wanderer MUST wander...

Her answer came as a forlorn little nod.

"But I will visit you again and when I'm not with you..."

Glancing around, he took in the sight of her fallen tears. With a grin, he called out the light from each tiny tear and placed them one by one into the blackness around them.

"You'll no longer be alone when I'm not with you."

With that, he took up her chin once more and kissed her for the first time. The glimmer from each tear flared to life, filling up the blank night sky and that's how the very stars came into being. Oschon created them keep lonely Menphina company. Funny that his Wanderers use them even now to guide their way~</div></spoiler>
:*'''The Wind's Love''' - A shared tale of two bards singing of the Wind's love for a mortal woman. <spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">((Told in collaboration with [[Kyri Sagitta]] in a sort of back and forth. This is why the lines are divided oddly. This first belongs to Xenedra, the second to Kyri and so on.))

- Once upon a time,<br/>
- there was a lovely red haired woman<br/>
- and she loved the wide open sky.<br/>
- She loved it so very much, she wished more than anything to be a part of it. To fly with the birds, to taste from the clouds<br/>
- and dance with the stars, who must surely be the most graceful things in all creation, moving across the night as they do.<br/>
- The red headed woman danced her love of the sky and stars, many admirers said it was as if she glided on the very air itself..<br/>
- This is, of course, impossible, though some say that a spirit of the wind had also fallen for her and that this was where she got her talent.<br/>
- What was unknown to the sweet, red-headed girl is the wind itself, was falling in love with her, moving with her, caressing her every move, wishing to be united together.<br/>
- And how could she know? The wind had no voice with which to tell her.<br/>
- The wind sought a way to speak to the girl as the girl wished a way to speak to the wind. Menphina, seeing this, sought a way to unite the wind with the lovely girl.<br/>
- The moon, in her wisdom, bade the wind to write his heart upon the night sky, her domain, knowing the the girl forever had her eyes upon it.<br/>
- Mephina, wishing to unite the girl with the sky, the moon and the stars knew this could not be done without the ultimate sacrifice. To be with the wind, the woman would have to cast off the shell of her body, the greatest sacrifice of all. Could she? would she..?<br/>
- That night, the wind told her of his heart, his help in her dance and of the words of the Moon.<br/>
- The girl, her heart full of love and longing ran to the cliffs, ready to cast herself from them.<br/>

(And here our Bards disagree on how to finish the story. Kyri preferred: )

- The woman jumped from the cliff, willing to cast her body away to be with the sky and as she fell her soul was whisked away by the Wind. As they held each other, the Wind raced her to the sky, to the Moons and the stars. The woman united with her true love has now a place of great honor, as the red moon, Dalamud.

(Xenedra's rendition: )

- But as she threw herself into the arms of the Wind, he faltered. Overwhelmed as he was by her willingness to fly to him without a second thought, he also could not bear to be the reason for her mortal death. Using that power which only the wind has, he swept her back up to the cliffs and set her safely back amongst the waiting wildflowers. And though he could not hold her to waltz her along-side the stars, he aided her in her life's dance and sang to her each night using Menphina's flickering canvas.</div></spoiler>
:*'''Between the Sea and Sky''' - Why sunsets and sunrises came to be. <spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">There were once two brothers who lived together, yet alone on a secret beach somewhere in La Noscea. They were identical, in all ways, except for one. One of them could talk to the fish of the deep and the other to the birds in the sky. And while you might not *think* this was a problem, it was the ONLY thing they ever argued about. The boys had to eat, after all, and what does one living in La Noscea eat? Fish. And not only did the boys eat the fish, but the birds did as well. So the fish brother found himself constantly in sorrow, watching his little friends be munched up. Eventually he chose to simply live on seaweed and whatever fruits and veggies he could gather, while the bird brother ate from the plentiful sea with his bird companions. As you might imagine, the bird brother grew tall and strong, but the fish brother remained small.

One day a Great Storm blew in over their beach while they slept and swept away their home. The bird brother blamed the fish brother for not having taken warnings from his fish friends, but the fish brother lashed back at him!

"They speak to me no longer, for you kill them and you eat them! You ruin THEIR homes and THEIR families! Maybe THIS is what we deserve! Maybe now you TOO can understand how you make them feel! Oppressed! In fear of their lives, always!"

Taken a-back, the bird brother could say nothing. He looked to his bird friends, but they would not meet his eye, full of shame as they were. The two brother went to sleep that night without having spoken further, one along the shoreline, the other near the seabird's nests.

During the night, the residents of the sea came to the fish brother, apologetic.

"We should not have done this to you, dear land brother. It is not your fault that your sibling treats us as he does and you have done what you can to avoid harming us. We ARE sorry, so we have come to you with an offer. Come with us into the depths! We will take care of you as we have been unable to do until now. You will become a brother to the sea and never shall you want."

The fish brother was silent for a very long time, turning the offer over in his head. He could go with his gentle friends and he very likely could be happy... but what of his brother? In the end, he walked to his brother's sleeping form and knelt by him.

"Dear brother," he whispered, "It has been you and I for as long as I can remember. But we have grown apart, you to your birds and I... to my fish. And so now I chose them. Please be safe."

And he turned to the birds, "You have never heard me before, never heeded my pleas, but listen now. This is my brother, the only one I have, will ever have, and I leave him in your care. I know you will not fail me in this, for you have always guarded him well before."

The birds flapped their wings and craned their necks, this way and that, unable to really speak to the fish brother, but wanting to promise that they would do as he asked. He took in their signs and he returned to the shoreline.

"I *will* go with you to the depths," he told the fish, "But I have one request. Each day, you must work with the birds to guide my brother to me, I will miss him far too much otherwise."

The fish were all too happy to oblige and the birds, true to their promise, joined them in seeking out Azeyma. She, in turn, agreed to serve the brothers as a guide, that they ought never be apart for too long. So, when Azeyma dances across the horizon where the sea meets the sky, the fish and the birds carry the brothers to their meeting. And this is why the sun lingers at the edge of the world at the beginning and end of each day.</div></spoiler>
:*'''The Tale of Zolku Elku''' - A humorous tale of heroism.<spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">My story is about a hero, courageous... giving... One of OUR generation, in fact. He proves that heros are not just of legend, but men and women that sprout up all the time around us. This man goes by many names, but most know him as... Zolku... Elku... He has travelled the land, far and wide in search of those in dispair! Those in need of help! Those in need... of dinner.
This brave soul single-handedly fed 3... 4... 12... a LEGION of hungry adventurers! All on his own with only two tools: a fishing pole and a cooking fire.
While he fed this STARVING legion... Which he'd led, by the way, into a safe haven from a HERD of drakes.
While they feasted on his delicacies, he ventured forth from the haven, with with bow on his back, his knuckles at his side and his lance at hand. The herd fell upon him, already a-glow from anticipation at the battle they knew was to come. Spinning his lance in an ever-repeating graceful arc, he quelled the fires they belched at his advancing form. With their fires spent, the drakes lunged at our brave Zolku Elku. He took out the first 15 with one swift trust of his lance. This, of course, rendered the lance useless and he pulled his bow from his back, nocking five arrows in the same smooth motion. These he let fly and they felled five drakes *each*.
For the next HOUR, Zolku shot arrow after arrow at the on-coming hoard, but of course, arrows are a finite resource... So as the remaining swarm drew in he stabbed his bow into the waiting ground and pulled a pair of shining knuckles from his hips. The day wore on and the mass of glowing scales continued to rage forward. Brave Zolku *shattered* each creature as is drew upon him, wearing down his knuckles as he went until eventually they'd worn away.
Yes, our hero was punching drakes into ruin with just his bare fists. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't finished my lunch and exited the haven just in time to see Brave Zolku take down the last drake, myself. The field was absolutely COVERED in corpses.
And so, not only did Zolku save a legion of adventurers, he fed them AND supplied them with drake scale armor which he crafted with his own two hands.</div></spoiler>

:*'''The Fury and the Matron''' - The origin story of the rivalry between Halone and Nophica <spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">
There was once a farmer who lived amongst the stone and ice that is Coerthas. As most of us know, Coerthas wasn't always blanketed in white like it is now, but being that close to the Farreach and in the mountains, no less, it's never been known as a partic~ularly warm locale. And it was once much larger...

However! The farmer's fields, settled between two of the rockiest outcroppings in the whole of the region and far to the east, always grew green. Or purple or orange or red if he decided to grow eggplants or pumpkins or peppers~. Of course those in the craggy valley around him were curious, so one night a few of them snuck onto his farm and peeked in his window as he was getting ready for bed. There on the wall was a symbol. A uniform sprout in a little pile of earth. Nophica's symbol. And below the symbol and the simple shrine around it the farmer knelt, praying to the Goddess of harvests.

The other farmers were outraged! This was Coerthas! Land of cold and rocks and HALONE! How DARE one of Halone's people pray to another Goddess simply so that he might outshine them! How dare he wish for more, for prosperity above all others! Their rage firmly and heart and hand, the group of farmers waited until morning and began the perilous trip to visit The Mover of Glaciers, Halone. She was pleased to see the fires of conflict burning within them and told them that she would move against their enemy at once.

Down from her haven Halone flew, down to the sheltered little oasis of greenery. She looked with distain upon such thriving life in her frigid mountains and smote it with a gesture. The plants whithered and died immediately as the farmer watched from his tiny house in awe. Yes his livelihood was ruined, but how often does one see a Goddess? Still, his senses returned to him and he questioned his celestial visitor, "Why? Why, most loved Halone, have you brought this pain upon me?"

The Goddess whirled on the man, living up to her name of The Fury, "Why!? You call me most beloved, but you pray to another! You pray for more than what my lands give you, from *another*!"

The frightened farmer pressed on, voice wavering, "My lady, I and my family have always held you foremost in our hearts and minds, but the lands are fickle and barren. To simply live, I pray for a good harvest and Lady Nophica answers, knowing full well that we are yours only."

Halone looked down her nose at the snivling farmer, head held high, "I've had enough of your LIES, wayward mortal. Nothing, NOTHING will grow from your lands again as long as I hold reign here. May you whither and die as your plants have."

With that, she turned on her heel and was gone in a glimmer of light off frozen armor.

For a long time the farmer sat, head in hands until he heard soft footsteps approaching him. His eyes grew wide and he sucked in a gasp of surprise as Nophica, green as spring and golden as fall all at once, approached him across the fallow field. At her feet re-sprung the life that Halone had banished. She smiled warmly and spoke gently, "You have done no wrong here, sweet Farmer. It was as you said, but my peer has never been one to listen. War is in her heart, it is simply her nature."

The farmer hung his head and fretted, "But my Lady, how can I hope to win against Lady Halone. Surely my home is doomed."

The Goddess shook her head reassuringly, "Your goal and mine are one in the same. I wish to see life and bountiful harvests even in the harshest environs. I will not abandon you now. Replant your rows and trust in me."

For three days the farmer hesitated, caught between Goddesses, but on the third day he took heart and began resewing his garden. He worked hard, doing three days work in that one day, and fell asleep amongst the seed beds, drained. When he woke the next morning, he was surrounded once again by flowering plants.

"Impossible..." he murmured, looking around in wonder.

But no sooner had his spirits begun to lift, then did a hail of ice begin streaking from the heavens. Halone had come to ruin his miracle. The knives of ice tore through the plants, reducing the budding leaves and flowers to ribbons as the farmer fled to his house, attempting to avoid the same fate. The ice fell for days upon days, all over the region not only ruining his crops, but the crop of the other farmers, too.

Finally, Nophica could stand no more and moved against Halone in one burst of power. The ice showers melted and fell as harmless, healing water. The farmers watched in wonder as the sky blessed them with water for their fields.

This was the first rain that Eorzea had ever experienced.

The rain continued, a soft weeping for a land that had too long been ravaged and the earth soaked it up hungrily. All around the bewildered farmers trees sprung up, but not saplings, full *trees* already baring fruit. Bushes of berries and vines of tomatoes and fields upon fields of flowers filled in the patches between the heavy laden trees and the land was all at once no longer barren.

Halone howled to see her land changed so at the hands of Nophica, but she had been raining ice for days and she was exhausted. It was beyond her power to do anything to stop her, though after her own assault, Nophica was equally worn. The Goddesses were at a standstill and the land remained ripe.

Out of all of this grew not only the bitter rivalry that Nophica and Halone share to this very day, but also the region that we now call the Black Shroud, home to towering trees and bountiful harvests.</div></spoiler>
:*'''Thal's Respite''' - One tale on how the twin Gods of commerce and death came to be <spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">
Not far southwest of here, long ago, lived a pair of brothers. They were farmers, aldgoatherds specifically, and the only thing they loved more than their flock was each other.

Thanalan has never been lacking in *some* greenery, but we must admit, it can be sparse. Especially when it comes to a herd of hungry aldgoats.

So, each day when the brothers rose, they readied themselves for a journey out of the valley in which Halatali used to lie in to either the market to the northwest or to the highlands along the border of the Black Shroud.

The trip was much more perilous then, drakes and ogres wandered the area along the Burning Wall freely, but the brothers were not without their own defenses. Magic and herder's crooks were their defenses and they used them masterfully, never losing one Nanny or Billy in all their years.

However, while drakes and ogres aren't known for their strategy, people are, and on one of their routine trips to the Shroud the brother came across an obstacle they'd never met before. A clan of Miqo'te, dark and dappled as the wood itself, slunk from the trees and rose up amongst the aldgoats as if from no where.

They struck the beasts, felling three before the brothers were even aware of their presence, and another still, before the pair were able to fight back.

The battle was brief, resulting in seven dead from the flock and the rest scattered. The Miqo'te slithered back into the woods, their pray dragged along behind them, leaving only the defeated brothers.

Adding insult to injury, a harsh wind picked up and pelted them with sand.

They dragged themselves to their feet and hobbled Northward in search of shelter. It didn't take them long before they found a narrow path in the cliff face and they followed it to a cave, dim and chilling, but none-the-less sheltering.

As a unit, they sunk to the floor, exhausted, but one sunk further, more stiffly, more drained. His sibling, urged on by panic, flew to his knees at the fallen's side and at last saw the damage the raiding clan had done.

His brother was slit shoulder to hip, an ugly red gash still steadily seeping the first's life blood.

For the next several minutes, one brother tried desperately to save the other with his limited medical knowledge, only to watch him fade and die. Numbness overtook him and he simply sat and stared at the person that had meant the most to him in all the world.

Time passed, an eternity to the one left behind. Footsteps echoed softly and stopped in front of the brothers' forms, waiting patiently.

Then not so patiently, "Mortal, I haven't the time for you to wallow in your sorrows. Say your goodbyes so that I may go."

Confused, the remaining brother lifted his head to take in what his soul told him must be the visage of Nymeia.

In those days, not only was Nymeia the purveyor of all things celestial and determiner of fate, she also had to handle all the matters of the underworld. Needless to say, she was a very busy woman with very little patience.

Stunned, the brother could say nothing to the Goddess and her patience grew even thinner.

"I do not have time for this. I will return in a day's time. Prepare your brother and say your goodbyes or you will doom his soul to remain here."

And with that, she was gone.

The remaining brother did as the Goddess bid him, all the while turning her words over in his head. When she returned the next day and approached his brother, he barred her path. Her expression grew dark.

"Please, My Lady Fate, hear me out before you go. I know your time is precious, but I will be brief. It is clear to me that you barely have enough time to see to all the duties that the Heavens have placed upon your shoulders. Yesterday I lost everything precious to me in life. Let me offer my service to you. Let me take the burden of collecting and guiding soul to the underworld."

The proposition gave the Goddess pause. Her eye grew wide with recognition.

"What makes you think you're capable, mortal..?" she asked, curiosity and a little something more apparent in her voice... Hope? Excitement?

"I have been a goatherd all my life, my Lady. I have the skills to tend a flock."

She Who Knows Fate watched the goatherd for a while, saw him for what he was and nodded. "It would seem that you were made for this task, Brother. But the Heavens know you cannot follow this path alone-"

"My Lady-!"

She arched a brow at him and he was silenced.

"Another must aid you in your task for all the days to come and beyond. Who would you name?"

The brother looked solemnly at the still form at his feet. "I would name my brother."

Nymeia smiled a knowing smile and nodded. "So it shall be."

And the fallen brother was made to rise again.

The Goddess continued as the brothers held one another and wept at their unlikely reunion. "You must be an example to the people of this land, our flock, in all matters of commerce and guide them when the time comes to their final rests. As one you will be a balance in this world. I welcome you, Nald, Thal."

:*'''Spears''' - A tale of Halone's loves and the war they began.<spoiler><div style="background-color: rgb(35, 35, 47); padding: 15px">
Many view Halone as hard, unyielding, cold, and in many ways they are right. To truly BE war, of all things, one must be a rock amongst the flurry of emotion and turmoil the word itself invokes. Even those that stand as pillars desire love, though, and so Halone took a lover and his name was Ishgauren.

She gifted him with a spear of great strength. It was a wild thing in spirit, the body of the spear curving in waves, over and around itself in roiling indigo with a spine of red, wings of spattered fire, horns of ebony and then tipped at the lancehead with burning frost. She thought it a very fine gift, all at once alive and full of a secret passion, like her love for the man she'd taken to bed. We know this spear now as the Gáe Bulg.

The people of Halone's lover were so impressed with him, with the very idea that he could capture the heart of The Fury, that they made him their leader. From then, they called their home after Halone's lover: Ishgard.

Unfortunately for the Ishgardians, one who catches the eye of Halone is sure to have a heart full of War itself, and though he was a just ruler, Ishgauren was blind to simple diplomacy.

The Prince of Dragons had come to call at Ishgard's gates, humble and kind, despite the monstrous visage he presented to the Ishgardians. He'd come, not from the sky, but slithering on his belly, taking every respectful detail into account in his shrewdness, to ask for help.

In truth, the tale is so old now, so shrouded in blood that no one quite remembers what the dragons wanted in the first place.

Before the Prince had even finished his request, King Ishgauren spat at his feet.

"Cannot the dragons support themselves? Look at you, a great beast and you coming crawling to my people for support? You'll have none of it. My spear will not lead your charge."

He turned from the gate, but paused, turning back to the Prince of Dragons. He considered the beastly monarch for a moment, then hurled the Gáe Bulg, catching the Prince's wings afire. A great roar of loss and torment echoed across still-green Coerthas, bringing a chill to the air, despite the great burning wings at its heart.

"This is only what you deserve for your frivolous demands! So you have come, so you shall go, on your belly, Monster!" Ishgauren cried as the Prince took to the sky, flapping and fluttering for all he was worth for the West.

It was too late of course. Once he had landed and had his wings tended to, they were mere shadows of the great eclipses they had once been. His people wept great, giant tears for their Prince, so many, so much that they created the lakes in the West past Riversmeet which we now call Ashpool and Banepool. At the center of Ashpool, the Prince came to rest.

Once the Draconian people had collected their mutual sorrows and tucked them bravely away, the Prince told them of Ishgauren's spear. They had heard rumors of its source and the set out straight away to find the Goddess of War.

It was easy to locate the Goddess. She stood atop a knoll, blissfully watching a pair of brothers bicker over a girl. Sometimes you just had to get back to the basics.

The Prince was upon her in a moment, pinning her form to the ground with his mass. He curled his neck, bringing his steaming nostrils close to her stoic features and he growling deep in the cavity of his chest.

And Halone wept. Not from fear, but but in joy.

In fascination.

In lust.

The creature before her was perfect, armor clad and full of a fury so intense, she shook at the feeling of it. Then she wrapped her arms around his horn'd head and kissed his furious snout. The prince was stunned into submission.

"Beautiful creature," Halone spoke then, "tell me your name, give me your love. I must have you for my own."

Stumbling for only a moment, the Prince replied, "My name is my secret, my soul and it is not for you Goddess... unless..."

Halone, like a child, sprang his trap, answering immediately, "Unless?"

"Restore my wings, Goddess, and give my the power to save me people. Give me the power to take vengeance on he who has ravage me so." And he lifted his wait from her and permitted her to stand.

She gasped at the sight of what surely must have been grand wings and tucked her chin in one resolute nod. "You shall have both in one."

Again, out of nothing, Halone wound two wild spiralling spears of passion. These two were red and yellow and all of fire and wing. These were the Gáe Buide and Gáe Derg and she entrusted them to the Prince's secret soul. All at once his wings were ablaze, but with his own fire and with Halone's.

Without waiting for another word from the Goddess, the Prince shot into the sky and toward the city that had shamed him.

The war went on for years, is still going on now, in fact, as most of you probably know. King Ishgauren fell early in the battle, his pride not allowing him to leave the frontlines. His people took his spear and his secret soul and bound them up in holy spells and they still wander the land now in one form of another. Some people call them the Azure Dragoon.

And Halone forever watches the war between her two loves, something of a blushing bride at the whirl of passion and hate between their two peoples. In fact, she was so inspired by their war, their first battle with the gifts she had bestowed, she took their likeness for her sigil: three helixing spears aloft.</div></spoiler>

::[[File:CasXenColor.png|left|380px]]
:*[[Abaigeal Causland]] - After a brief interview in which Abaigeal demonstrated not only her proficiency in sword dancing, but also her cheeky attitude, Xenedra hired her on the spot as a server for Tavern Soliloquy. The two have a great deal in common when it comes to what they enjoy and run the tavern in giggling tandem. Xenedra loves torturing Abaigeal when it comes to her various love interests.
:*[[Castus Allard]] - Barely more than an associate prior to the fall of Dalamud, Castus has suddenly become a constant fixture in Xenedra's life. After having tripped over him and rescued him from a particularly odd predicament, she's found herself again and again running into the would-be ruffian. As a result, she developed a burdensome fondness for the man before eventually reneging on her "no more relationships!" outlook. After several weeks of floundering, the two began dating and now live together in a location they keep undisclosed.
:*[[Claus Bell]] - A charming idiot with a penchant for showing up with wine to cheer her up. Claus has been a faithful friend both in times of need and silliness.
:*[[D'asee Pauwee]] - During her stay as a member of TALE, D'asee allowed Xenedra to room with her in their HQ. Though she's NOT fond of children as a rule, D'asee's childlike tendencies grew on Xenedra and she found she didn't mind looking after and tidying up for the rambunctious girl. D'asee's presence is hands-down the thing Xenedra misses most about her time with TALE.
:*[[Diyne Ikapine]] - An easy-going friend with a similar perspective on life. She's pleased to see Diyne moving on with his life and making himself happy.
:*[[Daghbheri Himalspyr]] - (Dogberry) A Roegadyn ship captain she met at her tavern. She enjoys his outlooks on life and the two's conversations often end up meandering in the direction of the philosophical.
:*[[Endemerrin Rosethorne]] - Previously her fiancé and closest friend, she's now not really sure what to make of him. While she doesn't dislike him, she feels betrayed by his sudden admission that he no longer loved her when she challenged him to prove that he did.
:*[[Ilwe'ran Hlaiwa]] -
:*[[Jayce Lightfall]] - Bashful as can be, Xenedra and Jayce started out their friendship with her doing everything in her power to make sure the white ghost was constantly pink. In an odd turn of events he became fast friends with one of her other favorite targets to harass: Abai. She has high suspicions that the two have more going on than they claim.
:*[[Kannadi Albedo]] - Although Kannadi is almost a complete foil to her, Xenedra thoroughly enjoys the woman's company. Kanna is good for both an intellectual discussion and a victim to embarrass. It has become a tradition for the two to dance whenever they find themselves together at a formal event. The two have come back into contact in recent times and seem to have picked up precisely where they left off.
:*[[Miname Yaero]] - As the only parent figure she's ever had, she'd do quite a lot for Miname. She currently employs her mother figure as the chef at her tavern.
:*[[Mtoto Wamoto]] - After the woman stepped down from her aloof Eorzean Guard Commander position, Xenedra found her to be quite personable and someone worth trusting and fighting with/for.
:*[[Myllor Aurelion]] - They've had a very up and down relationship with some very high ups and very loooow downs, but she still trusts and cares a great deal for him. Myllor also kept her tavern running for the 5 years she was missing (time skip). If she questioned his devotion before, that single act has certainly swayed her opinion.
:*[[Nebula Stardancer]] -
:*[[Ophelia de Winter]] - When she met Ophelia, her romantic situation so closely mirrored her own previous one that she set to trying to guide the girl without even thinking about it. Though they've not known each other long, she feels fiercely protective of her, as if trying to look out for a younger version of herself.[[File:food.png|right|380px]]
:*[[Rakka'sae Kuhn]] - She's quite fond of 'Sae. This is quite likely because of how much he reminds her of a certain Lalafell now passed, though he's more docile than his predecessor.
:*[[Saitou Yoshida]] - A solid companion when they were both in a low spot. Truth be told, she once thought of him as just a smidge more than a friend, but his tendency to disappear into her least favorite place, the Black Shroud, put a damper on those feelings early on.
:*[[Sylas Peregrine]] - A fellow that seems to be a wandering jack of all trades. She doesn't know much about him, but he always seems to turn up someplace different whilst doing something entirely new.
:*[[Vash Ashford]] - Though she doesn't trust Vash very much, if at all, she'd probably be a little sad if he died.
:*[[Yssen Van]] - He has a mischievous side that matches her own, making the time she spends with Yssen always a lot of fun. The two share a number of similar outlooks of life, morals, etc., perhaps because of their unique upbringings.
:*[[Zesiro Ghalib]] - It seems to her that he swings between serious and quirky at the drop of a hat bringing her endless amusement. Above all, though, she finds Zesiro reliable. having had her back on the many expeditions of their salvaging crew into the unknown.
:*[[Zolku Elku]] - Once upon a time, "Cutie-pie" was like Xenedra's adoptive, if slightly incestuous, brother. Toward the end of his short, tragic life, he turned on her, betraying her in a very personal fashion. She may have been a contributing factor in finally putting the Lalafell out of his misery.

'''Yssen Van''' is a particularly elusive, razor tongued, Duskwight rogue. He delights in drinking, stealing, swindling, gambling, and (as he puts it) games of all kinds. To most he is mysterious, to some he is kind, to others cold, violently opposed to a few, and to the rest he seems completely indifferent. The only constant seems to be that there is no constant. This, coupled with the fact that he is notoriously deceptive and secretive, leads people to think that his motives are questionable at best, and downright sinister at worst. That seems to be just how he likes it. One fact is certain. There is something hidden behind his yellow-gold eyes and devil may care grin.

==='''History'''===

There are very few confirmed details about Yssen Van's past. It is known that he was active as a thief in Ul'dah about nine years before the Dalamud Impact Event, and that he joined the mercenary company Shimmer Song at some point in the year leading up to the impact. He was even a member of the Immortal Flames for a time. He resigned his commission in particularly spectacular fashion, however. Something about him violently disagreeing with some decision some Immortal Flame officers made. Post impact, he seems to fallen back on the thieving and banditry for which he and his kind are known. He also seems to have become more and more reclusive and withdrawn in the years since the impact. Very few have met with him in person, even those that have claimed to carry out raids on his behalf say he only communicates in missives or through his adopted daughter, Hope. The fact that a Vengeance Order for the murder of an Ul'dahn merchant known as '''Radill''' remains active is the most commonly accepted reason for his staying away from the world. Yssen's current whereabouts are unknown, and the raids he has planned and executed have been all over Eorzea.

Since his capture at the hands of '''Deirdre Ta'ea''' (who was hired to do so by '''Zaralette Valeneaux'''), it has been revealed that Yssen is one of the '''Seven Devils'''. In specific, he is the Seventh Devil with the code name of '''The Hellfire'''. Yssen himself has not been seen since his escape from the Valeneaux, but rumor persist that the Hellfire's handy work has been seen in Coerthas and Ul'dah. With the revelation that Yssen is a potent Thaumaturge Assassin, the Thaumatuge's Guild has formally removed their previous vengeance order. The guild now opts to hunt him down as the would any other rogue Thaumaturge. The Valeneaux also list his re-capture as a priority, but seem to have focused their efforts on eliminating the bandit problems in the Black Shroud. Yssen's current location and activities remain unknown.

==='''Family'''===

Yssen's parentage is unknown. He IS known to have one sibling, Ysa Van. He has also adopted a young Midlander girl called Hope as his daughter and protege.

:'''Ysa Van''': - Yssen's twin sister, and a now known member of a group of assassins known as the '''Seven Devils'''. Specifically, she is the '''Fifth Devil''' and known by the code name '''"The Razor."''' Her relationship with her brother can at best be called volatile, and at worst completely homicidal. Some moment in the past put the two twins at each other's throats. While the nature of what happened is unclear, the results are that Ysa seems to doggedly pursue her brother, leaving a bloody train in her wake. Their last confrontation, which began with her murder of a Mineral Concern dancer, supposedly ended with Yssen being critically injured and near death weeks before Dalamud's impact. Ysa has not been seen in five cycles.

:[[Vengeance Order for Ysa Van]]

:'''Hope Van''': - A young Midlander girl, and Yssen's adopted daughter and protege. She was rescued by Yssen from a cruel Ul'dahn merchant when she was nine years old days before the impact. For the past five years she has traveled with and studied under Yssen, becoming quite an accomplished martial artist and thief at the tender age of fourteen. The purpose of her training remains unknown to her, and she is often sent out into the field on tasks she does not fully understand. Despite this she is fiercely loyal to Yssen, and looks to him as a father. Often a bit obnoxious, sarcastic, and a tad over enthusiastic, she none the less seems to have a fair amount of potential.

==='''Appearance'''===

:'''Height''': - Tall for an Elezen
:'''Weight''': - Slim and Wiry
:'''Skin''': - Blue
:'''Hair''': - Indigo
:'''Eyes''': - Golden
:'''Distinguishing Features''': - At some point in the past five years Yssen began wearing an eyepatch over his left eye. His right hand and arm are laced with criss-crossed spiral scar that starts at his knuckles and ends just past his shoulder. He has a black, Duskwight tatoo on his left eye that is still visible despite the eyepatch. His back also has several long scars, similar to whip or lash marks.

(Note - I, Yssen's player, have created this wiki as a bit of an experiment. This section, and the following '''Rumors''' section are meant to be open to public editing. Feel free to post a rumor or your character's known relationship to Yssen. Please try to be concise.)

[[Xenedra Ambreaus]] - They met in a cave, and from then on it was mischief and shenanigans a plenty. Then, she died. Seems it did not take though. These two have a lot in common, or so it would seem. Yssen refers to her as "the best gamble I ever made. Still."

[[Kari Illderthane]] - A fellow Duskwight. They met during an adventurer get together/errand running event. These two bonded pretty well, particularly after a blizzard filled trip to Coerthas and a stint seeking shelter in a cave. They seems to share a lot of the same opinions on the matters of being a Duskwight and an outcast.

[[Moenlona Yssenwyn]] - Found by his adopted daughter Hope, and cared for just a tad by Chiane, Moenlona is Yssen's second adopted daughter. He regrets not being able to help her as much as he could have lately, and is saddened that their relationship has become very strained.

[[Chiane N'ardente]] - A fellow Duskwight. They met at Carteneau, looking for things people lost. Yssen found out pretty rapidly that her family had been lost, so he adopted her into the one he seems to have been gathering. He looks at her as the little sister he never had, and as one of his finest students.

[[Abaigeal Causland]] - He has remarked that she is his finest student, and he means it when he says it. He delights in teasing her with pieces of his own personal puzzle. She has probably seen quite a bit of Yssen for someone not part of his gathered "family," and getting to know him is not an easy task. What is up with that, hmmm?

[[Hope Van]] - Yssen's adopted daughter. A terrible ball of energy, training, and obnoxious attitude. Yssen cares for her very much, but their relationship has become very strained lately. Silence could almost be the word that best defines it.

[[Kassandra Dawn]] - Yssen has hung out with her a couple times in his frequent trips to Soliloquy. He seems to genuinely like her, and enjoys her company.

[[Zesiro Ghalib]] - These two work together more often than not. It is said their meeting involved one of them trying to steal from the other, or both at the same time. Details of the exact relationship are somewhat unclear. What is clear that when one of them asks the other for help, they do so.

[[Sienna Skye]] -

[[Myllor Aurelion]] - He once helped him protect Hope. While it is pretty clear that Yssen does not agree with Myllor's moral code or most of his actions, he does respect him for doing the right thing when it came to Hope.

[[Ysa Van]] - Yssen's twin, and a crazy psychotic killing machine of an assassin. The rift between them is pretty well known at this point. Now that she is dead, the loss seems to have a very large effect on Yssen.

[[Deirdre Ta'ea]] - Man, do these two have some issues to work out. The last time they saw each other she shot at him, so he blew up the tree she was perched in. After a particularly bloody fight Yssen is wary of being around her, lest he lose his coveted sense of cool and lash out wildly. The two get along about as well as you would figure fire and ice would.

[[C'mil Eisengraf]] - An older Moonseeker mercenary. She once trained Yssen in sword play. No one is sure what happened between the two of them, but Yssen cannot stand her.

==='''Rumors'''===

(Note - I am going to repeat what I said above here a bit. Post whatever rumors you overhear, or would like spread to the public here. Please be concise and remember there is no guarantee that anything posted here is actually true. It is rumor. It might be true, it might not, but it will all be fun to play with.)

"I heard that the real Yssen died years ago and that the man walking around now is just his body possessed by a rogue fire elemental."

"Don't trust him. He's from Ishgard, and is spying on us for the Holy See."

"Ishgard? That's ridiculous, and the truth is much more sinister. He is a spy alright, a Garlean spy. One of the ones sent by the Wolf to subvert a City State just like Ala Mihgo."

"He and I have business to settle..." - [[Deirdre Ta'ea]]

"Yssen actually secretly runs an orphanage to look after all the children" - [[Kari Illderthane]]

"I think 'e fancies himself a dancer...Should be dancin' fer the Soliloquy." - [[Isabel Tolen]]

}}

==Character==
===General===

Verad Bellveil is a terrible Duskwight and a source of shame and irritation to everyone who knows him.

===Appearance===

Inasmuch as an elezen can be "grizzled," Verad fits the bill, with a heavy beard and a worn face. His hair is white, with a few desperate holdouts of black strands fighting a guerilla battle against the albino tide at its tips.

He tends to wear loose clothing that helps with the heat of Thanalan, where he conducts most of his business.

===Behavior===

A braggart, a blowhard, and a man who plays at being a wit, Verad spends much of his time hawking his wares - his so-called "dubious goods" - on the streets of Ul'dah. He gathers cast-off and useless materials from other craftsmen, or outright scavenges them from the wilderness when necessary, and sells them at negligible prices to any interested buyer. Verad considers himself an honest merchant, and prides himself on making sure anybody who purchases from him knows that they are buying junk.

===History===
[[File:VeradArtPixelPel.png|thumb|right|Portrait by [[Misha Jinhri]]/Geneticdork [http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=8103] ]]

Verad Bellveil's history, as he would have it, is one of the great mysteries of the Seventh Astral Era. Between his Hyuran name, typical Duskwight reclusiveness, and the lack of any clear records related to his existence, some (read: no) experts have speculated that he sprang into being fully formed during the Seventh Umbral Era shortly after the Calamity. He is clearly aware of events that happened prior to the fall of Dalamud, however, making this unlikely.

Verad's home city-state is likewise a puzzle; he claims to have been banned from all three major city-states, Ishgard, and, at times, Garlea for "not having the proper permits." That said, his movements do not appear to be restricted in Ul'dah, and he may well be able to enter other cities with ease. It is possible that he is a well-informed foreigner.

While he does have a set of memoirs that detail of a period of some twenty to thirty years of his life as a merchant, they are filled with such outrageous claims - up to and including turning down being Halone's chosen consort - that nobody could possibly take them seriously. Further, most copies were destroyed following a stint in slavery; only three are known to remain, and none are considered reliable records.

Whatever the case, what is known is that Verad Bellveil arrived in Ul'dah several months ago and, after much scraping, bowing, and bribing, received the appropriate permits to lease out business space for Dubious Distributions in Pearl Lane. That this space happened to be in the middle of the street, and that the space was also leased to several other businesses in a form of vagrant timeshare, does not seem to have mattered to Bellveil, and he can occasionally be found scribbling in his ledger and planning the shipment of his wares in that very same space.

Verad's situation continues not to be monitored by the authorities of Ul'dah. Citizens are advised that he is no threat whatsoever save to anybody's time and, occasionally, their wallets.

====The Case of the Ransacked Rug====

<spoiler>Following the unexpected theft of his office - and, despite leaving his strongbox unprotected on a rug in the street, he continues to argue that the theft was unexpected - Verad's investigation into the robbery uncovered an illegal debt-labor scheme. While normally accepted practice in Ul'dah, a debt-trader by the name of Jeresu Resu had been forging the consent of his customers, kidnapping them, and selling them into slavery at a local mining company. Finding that one of his fellow vendors had fallen prey to the scam, Verad was driven to put it out of commission; however, when his investigations failed to provide definitive proof of this practice, he took the leap of using his own debts to sell himself into slavery in order to expose the scheme.

After spending ten days as a laborer at the Coblyn's Fancy Mining Company in Central Thanalan, Verad and the Harbingers of Dawn were able to undermine and destroy the debt-trader's income source through the use of manipulation, worker riots, and hordes of ravenous coblyns. None of this stopped him from getting stabbed, however, and, after some timely healing, he spent several days in convalescence at the Harbingers' estate. Verad was then horrified to learn that his inventory of dubious goods was liquidated as part of the forged contract's "debt reduction plan," and that his business is now devoid of stock. He isn't very happy about that, but has spent some time rebuilding his stock and taking odd and sufficiently dubious requests where he is able.</spoiler>

====The Quandary of Quarrymill====

<spoiler>
After a scandalous article in the Tonberry's Lantern accused him of knowingly maiming a Lalafell child and plotting a coup to overthrow the Sultana, Verad was forced to take a "completely coincidental" vacation in Gridanian. The Shroud, however, offered him little relief, as he was arrested by the Wailers of Quarrymill under suspicion of scavenging from the dead at the site of a recent ambush. He was released after members of the Harbingers vouched for his character and agreed to investigate on his behalf.

The Harbingers, led by [[Yune Tabrisviel]], [[J'maaira Tuhl]], and [[Arrelaine Fashonti]], later joined by [[Anstarra Silverain]], discovered that the camp was experiencing a burgeoning refugee crisis; Ala Mhigans, exhausted of the conditions in Thanalan were trying their luck in the Shroud, and more applicants were being denied entry than ever. Further, Wailer patrols were being ambushed and killed with frightening efficacy, and signs pointed to Garlean weaponry being used in the attacks. The Wailer captain of Quarrymill was seeking to suppress this information to avoid a panic and fears of a renewed Garlean offensive, and so it was left to the Harbingers and Verad to investigate the claims.

As the investigation proceeded and the group managed to capture one of the ambushing parties in one of their attacks, they were stunned to learn that the refugees, whose cause they had been championing to date, were the ones behind the attacks. Convinced that one of the Hearers of Quarrymill was corrupt, disgruntled veterans of Ala Mhigo had been salvaging Garlean weaponry and using them to thin the ranks of the Wailers in preparation for a larger operation, all with the aim of taking the camp and forcing the Hearer to admit to his own lies. Their leader hoped for a peaceful resolution all the same, and gave the investigators the chance to force a confession from the Hearer before their final assault was carried out.

Enlisting the aid of the Morbolvine Clan, who had proven themselves allies after Verad was seriously injured (see Recently), the group was able to confront the Hearer with their suspicions. After tense negotiations, it became clear that the Hearer was ignoring the will of the spirits and denying more refugees than needed, all out of the desire to protect outsiders from the whims of the spirits and the dangers of living in the Shroud. He was convinced to recant his actions before the refugees.

The aftermath of these actions is still playing out. The Hearer admitted his wrong-doing, and the refugees are being re-assessed for admission. At the same time, the commander of the refugees was good to his word, surrendering himself and those who had been directly involved in killing the Wailers. An inquiry into the punishment for their crimes is forthcoming.

</spoiler>

====Recently====

<spoiler>
Certain unpleasant revelations following his participation in the Grindstone tournament on a whim, and the continued imperilment of Roen Deneith, have convinced Verad to take on the task of effecting real change in Ul'dah. Unfortunately, he's terrible at it. While he was able to expose a stash of illegal hallucinogens in a warehouse belonging to Jameson Taeros, he suffered a swift and violent reprisal at the hands of the Brass Blades. After convalescing with allies in Gridania and resolving the situation in Quarrymill, Verad has returned to Ul'dah and is back to business - after a fashion. Many of his financial difficulties were abruptly and swiftly resolved when he received control of the Fleur estate in the wake of original proprietor Xhosa Tauzeh's absence. Verad now finds himself, rather dubiously at that, in the lower-upper classes of Ul'dahn society.
</spoiler>

==Combat==
===General===

Verad favors a bow on the grounds that when he misses his shot he will at least have a head-start on his now-enraged target. He also favors keeping other people between he and danger, begging, or simply not being in a fight at all.

Despite this sensibly pragmatic attitude towards combat, he nevertheless makes a point of styling himself as Eorzea's Greatest Archer, Pending Certain Conditions. What those conditions are varies from conversation to conversation, but generally imply that as long as he can't miss, he will never miss.

Any rumors that placing a knife in Verad's hands can make him dangerously competent are just that.

==Items For Sale==

'''Budget Stoneskin''' - A method of receiving the "effects" of Stoneskin without requiring a caster. Consists of a pot of gravel and a bottle of fish glue. Self-applied. ((Inspired by [[Gharen Wolfsong]]))

'''Giant Seed''' - A seed to an unknown plant, roughly the size of a Miqo'te's head. Verad has no idea what it grows, how long it takes, or if it is even possible to germinate the thing. Buy today!

'''Plot Devices''' - Back by popular demand! The mysteriously enigmatic items of mystery that, no matter the buyer, will always prove to be of great value at just the right moment. Try one today!

'''Rattling Bone Harpoon''' - This harpoon rattles too much to be an actual weapon, and must instead be a ritual item of some small significance on the part of the Jakkya clan.

'''Sub-Par Seduction Comment Cards''' - Are you a frequent visitor of the Quicksand? Frustrated by men, women, or both awkwardly approaching you to strike up a conversation in the hopes of more? Use these cards to identify in clear, unambiguous terms exactly what your would-be suitor is doing wrong for future improvement. ((Inspired by [[Jancis Milburga]]))

'''Wine-Stained Clothing''' - Obviously a poor attempt at dyeing clothing that ended poorly. Never mind the smell; think of the fashion statement!

'''Taking Requests''' - Following a stint in debt-slavery, Verad has had his assets liquidated to offset his debts. At present, he has no items for sale, but is openly taking suggestions for new stock, and fulfilling individual orders to build capital.

==Services==

'''Cactu-Puncture''' - A not-yet ancient art, Verad has developed the concept of Cactu-Puncture as a form of stress and pain relief - or at least, pain distraction. Being stabbed with cactuar needles at strategic points would certainly distract the recipient from other pains for at least a while.

[[File:ver.png|200px|thumb|right|"Madam, when I asked if you like to try a tiny prick, I believe you misinterpreted--!" - Art by [[Xhosa Tauzeh]]]]

'''Patron of the Inferior Arts''' - For every struggling artist waiting for the world to recognize her genius, there are a half-dozen struggling artists who simply have no talent whatsoever. Verad is willing to sell the works of these inferior aesthetes for a small percentage of the sale, in the hopes that the inspiration of a sale will convince them to improve enough to be considered average.

==Items Not For Sale==

There are some things Verad won't touch.

'''Narcotics''' - Omnipresent and a health hazard, and Verad's own standards would ensure they are even more hazardous.

'''Illicit Goods and Services''' - Dubious is one thing, nefarious another. While Verad will work with the criminal underclasses, he will not directly deal in slaves or contraband.

'''Food Services''' - After an ill-fated incident involving scoops of chilled bavarois during the Ul'dah summer, Verad is banned from selling foodstuffs.

'''Weapons and Armor''' - Because Verad cannot guarantee that someone's life will not be put at risk by shoddy equipment, Verad refuses to sell wooden swords, rusty mail, and other typical starting gear for adventurers.

She has proven to be an able, if dim-witted, guard, and has also proven herself as a saleswoman of dubious products. Her ability to say exactly the wrong thing in any situation is making Verad seriously consider a gag order as part of her contract.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Anstarra Silverain]] - A fellow member of the Harbingers, Verad was quickly charmed by Anstarra's quick wits and pleasantly teasing demeanor. Even after Verad's departure from the Harbingers, she has proven a close friend and ally.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Aya Foxheart]] - Verad and Ul'dah's best bartender - "The Jewel of the Quicksand" as he likes to call her - are friendly acquaintances, a state brought on by their generally positive attitudes and Verad's willingness to request bizarre drinks. He is also fond of her cookies.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Burning Edge]] - The former gladiator-turned-legal-slaver played a pivotal role in the matter of Verad's vandalized "office," to the extent that a tentative relationship had begun to develop, one built around him doing dumb things and her hitting him for it. Having left the debt-trading business following the events at the Coblyn's Fancy, her own spending habits caught up to her to such an extent that she was forced to take hard labor to make ends meet. She disappeared from Ul'dah shortly before Verad inherited an estate - one he would have gladly let her reside in for free. He was left with the sense that life is not often kind to those who make the right choices.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Coatleque Crofte]] - A Sultansworn with whom Verad is acquainted. While not particularly close, he is favorably inclined towards her because of her professional behavior while in service and her kindness towards Roen during her brief imprisonment. She has also read his memoirs, which can make for awkward conversation. After stabilizing him and saving his life after being assaulted, Verad feels himself personally indebted to her, but her recent choices in companionship have left him terribly confused.

<font size="3">●</font> [[Jameson Taeros]] - A man Verad has seen once and never truly met, he nevertheless has what limited ire the Duskwight can muster, in part because of his actions and how they have affected Roen, and in part because of his role in having Verad assaulted.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Jihl Wilzuun]] - Verad is favorably inclined towards this young Miqo'te through her timid but generally positive disposition. However, his interest in Anstarra may be putting a strain on any real friendship.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Kiht Jakkya]] - Matron of the Shroudwolf Clan. The two initially resolved to work together to help Roen out of their mutually-held esteem for the woman, but their relationship has become a friendship of its own. Kiht has offered Verad materials for sale, a safehouse when his actions against Taeros turned sour, and aid when investigating the problems of Quarrymill. He will be among the first to defend her and her Clan to others should the need arise, and has indeed done so, offering shelter for the newly formed Shroudwolf after they split from the Morbolvine.

He still thinks she's a stunner though.

<font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font>[[Spahro Llorn]] - On the one hand, Ul'dah's top reporter has written libelous articles about Verad and forced him to flee the city on at least one occasion.

Over time, he has come to see her as an exemplar of what an Ul'dahn ought to be, and has offered his assistance with her troubles out of personal loyalty. That loyalty was strained, however, when it became clear to Verad that the intentions of Deneith's allies might harm Ul'dah more than help, and a betrayal of her confidence has led to a split between the two and the realization that idealizing her did not let him see her as a person. Time will tell if this can be mended.

Following Y'mheena's shameless theft of his Cactu-Puncture services, they have recently come to an understanding regarding their separate spheres of influence.

==Character==
===General===

Verad Bellveil is a terrible Duskwight and a source of shame and irritation to everyone who knows him.

===Appearance===

Inasmuch as an elezen can be "grizzled," Verad fits the bill, with a heavy beard and a worn face. His hair is white, with a few desperate holdouts of black strands fighting a guerilla battle against the albino tide at its tips.

He tends to wear loose clothing that helps with the heat of Thanalan, where he conducts most of his business.

===Behavior===

A braggart, a blowhard, and a man who plays at being a wit, Verad spends much of his time hawking his wares - his so-called "dubious goods" - on the streets of Ul'dah. He gathers cast-off and useless materials from other craftsmen, or outright scavenges them from the wilderness when necessary, and sells them at negligible prices to any interested buyer. Verad considers himself an honest merchant, and prides himself on making sure anybody who purchases from him knows that they are buying junk.

===History===
[[File:VeradArtPixelPel.png|thumb|right|Portrait by [[Misha Jinhri]]/Geneticdork [http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=8103] ]]

Verad Bellveil's history, as he would have it, is one of the great mysteries of the Seventh Astral Era. Between his Hyuran name, typical Duskwight reclusiveness, and the lack of any clear records related to his existence, some (read: no) experts have speculated that he sprang into being fully formed during the Seventh Umbral Era shortly after the Calamity. He is clearly aware of events that happened prior to the fall of Dalamud, however, making this unlikely.

Verad's home city-state is likewise a puzzle; he claims to have been banned from all three major city-states, Ishgard, and, at times, Garlea for "not having the proper permits." That said, his movements do not appear to be restricted in Ul'dah, and he may well be able to enter other cities with ease. It is possible that he is a well-informed foreigner.

While he does have a set of memoirs that detail of a period of some twenty to thirty years of his life as a merchant, they are filled with such outrageous claims - up to and including turning down being Halone's chosen consort - that nobody could possibly take them seriously. Further, most copies were destroyed following a stint in slavery; only three are known to remain, and none are considered reliable records.

Whatever the case, what is known is that Verad Bellveil arrived in Ul'dah several months ago and, after much scraping, bowing, and bribing, received the appropriate permits to lease out business space for Dubious Distributions in Pearl Lane. That this space happened to be in the middle of the street, and that the space was also leased to several other businesses in a form of vagrant timeshare, does not seem to have mattered to Bellveil, and he can occasionally be found scribbling in his ledger and planning the shipment of his wares in that very same space.

Verad's situation continues not to be monitored by the authorities of Ul'dah. Citizens are advised that he is no threat whatsoever save to anybody's time and, occasionally, their wallets.

====The Case of the Ransacked Rug====

<spoiler>Following the unexpected theft of his office - and, despite leaving his strongbox unprotected on a rug in the street, he continues to argue that the theft was unexpected - Verad's investigation into the robbery uncovered an illegal debt-labor scheme. While normally accepted practice in Ul'dah, a debt-trader by the name of Jeresu Resu had been forging the consent of his customers, kidnapping them, and selling them into slavery at a local mining company. Finding that one of his fellow vendors had fallen prey to the scam, Verad was driven to put it out of commission; however, when his investigations failed to provide definitive proof of this practice, he took the leap of using his own debts to sell himself into slavery in order to expose the scheme.

After spending ten days as a laborer at the Coblyn's Fancy Mining Company in Central Thanalan, Verad and the Harbingers of Dawn were able to undermine and destroy the debt-trader's income source through the use of manipulation, worker riots, and hordes of ravenous coblyns. None of this stopped him from getting stabbed, however, and, after some timely healing, he spent several days in convalescence at the Harbingers' estate. Verad was then horrified to learn that his inventory of dubious goods was liquidated as part of the forged contract's "debt reduction plan," and that his business is now devoid of stock. He isn't very happy about that, but has spent some time rebuilding his stock and taking odd and sufficiently dubious requests where he is able.</spoiler>

====The Quandary of Quarrymill====

<spoiler>
After a scandalous article in the Tonberry's Lantern accused him of knowingly maiming a Lalafell child and plotting a coup to overthrow the Sultana, Verad was forced to take a "completely coincidental" vacation in Gridanian. The Shroud, however, offered him little relief, as he was arrested by the Wailers of Quarrymill under suspicion of scavenging from the dead at the site of a recent ambush. He was released after members of the Harbingers vouched for his character and agreed to investigate on his behalf.

The Harbingers, led by [[Yune Tabrisviel]], [[J'maaira Tuhl]], and [[Arrelaine Fashonti]], later joined by [[Anstarra Silverain]], discovered that the camp was experiencing a burgeoning refugee crisis; Ala Mhigans, exhausted of the conditions in Thanalan were trying their luck in the Shroud, and more applicants were being denied entry than ever. Further, Wailer patrols were being ambushed and killed with frightening efficacy, and signs pointed to Garlean weaponry being used in the attacks. The Wailer captain of Quarrymill was seeking to suppress this information to avoid a panic and fears of a renewed Garlean offensive, and so it was left to the Harbingers and Verad to investigate the claims.

As the investigation proceeded and the group managed to capture one of the ambushing parties in one of their attacks, they were stunned to learn that the refugees, whose cause they had been championing to date, were the ones behind the attacks. Convinced that one of the Hearers of Quarrymill was corrupt, disgruntled veterans of Ala Mhigo had been salvaging Garlean weaponry and using them to thin the ranks of the Wailers in preparation for a larger operation, all with the aim of taking the camp and forcing the Hearer to admit to his own lies. Their leader hoped for a peaceful resolution all the same, and gave the investigators the chance to force a confession from the Hearer before their final assault was carried out.

Enlisting the aid of the Morbolvine Clan, who had proven themselves allies after Verad was seriously injured (see Recently), the group was able to confront the Hearer with their suspicions. After tense negotiations, it became clear that the Hearer was ignoring the will of the spirits and denying more refugees than needed, all out of the desire to protect outsiders from the whims of the spirits and the dangers of living in the Shroud. He was convinced to recant his actions before the refugees.

The aftermath of these actions is still playing out. The Hearer admitted his wrong-doing, and the refugees are being re-assessed for admission. At the same time, the commander of the refugees was good to his word, surrendering himself and those who had been directly involved in killing the Wailers. An inquiry into the punishment for their crimes is forthcoming.

</spoiler>

====Recently====

<spoiler>
Certain unpleasant revelations following his participation in the Grindstone tournament on a whim, and the continued imperilment of Roen Deneith, have convinced Verad to take on the task of effecting real change in Ul'dah. Unfortunately, he's terrible at it. While he was able to expose a stash of illegal hallucinogens in a warehouse belonging to Jameson Taeros, he suffered a swift and violent reprisal at the hands of the Brass Blades. After convalescing with allies in Gridania and resolving the situation in Quarrymill, Verad has returned to Ul'dah and is back to business - after a fashion. Many of his financial difficulties were abruptly and swiftly resolved when he received control of the Fleur estate in the wake of original proprietor Xhosa Tauzeh's absence. Verad now finds himself, rather dubiously at that, in the lower-upper classes of Ul'dahn society.
</spoiler>

==Combat==
===General===

Verad favors a bow on the grounds that when he misses his shot he will at least have a head-start on his now-enraged target. He also favors keeping other people between he and danger, begging, or simply not being in a fight at all.

Despite this sensibly pragmatic attitude towards combat, he nevertheless makes a point of styling himself as Eorzea's Greatest Archer, Pending Certain Conditions. What those conditions are varies from conversation to conversation, but generally imply that as long as he can't miss, he will never miss.

Any rumors that placing a knife in Verad's hands can make him dangerously competent are just that.

==Items For Sale==

'''Budget Stoneskin''' - A method of receiving the "effects" of Stoneskin without requiring a caster. Consists of a pot of gravel and a bottle of fish glue. Self-applied. ((Inspired by [[Gharen Wolfsong]]))

'''Giant Seed''' - A seed to an unknown plant, roughly the size of a Miqo'te's head. Verad has no idea what it grows, how long it takes, or if it is even possible to germinate the thing. Buy today!

'''Plot Devices''' - Back by popular demand! The mysteriously enigmatic items of mystery that, no matter the buyer, will always prove to be of great value at just the right moment. Try one today!

'''Rattling Bone Harpoon''' - This harpoon rattles too much to be an actual weapon, and must instead be a ritual item of some small significance on the part of the Jakkya clan.

'''Sub-Par Seduction Comment Cards''' - Are you a frequent visitor of the Quicksand? Frustrated by men, women, or both awkwardly approaching you to strike up a conversation in the hopes of more? Use these cards to identify in clear, unambiguous terms exactly what your would-be suitor is doing wrong for future improvement. ((Inspired by [[Jancis Milburga]]))

'''Wine-Stained Clothing''' - Obviously a poor attempt at dyeing clothing that ended poorly. Never mind the smell; think of the fashion statement!

'''Taking Requests''' - Following a stint in debt-slavery, Verad has had his assets liquidated to offset his debts. At present, he has no items for sale, but is openly taking suggestions for new stock, and fulfilling individual orders to build capital.

==Services==

'''Cactu-Puncture''' - A not-yet ancient art, Verad has developed the concept of Cactu-Puncture as a form of stress and pain relief - or at least, pain distraction. Being stabbed with cactuar needles at strategic points would certainly distract the recipient from other pains for at least a while.

[[File:ver.png|200px|thumb|right|"Madam, when I asked if you like to try a tiny prick, I believe you misinterpreted--!" - Art by [[Xhosa Tauzeh]]]]

'''Patron of the Inferior Arts''' - For every struggling artist waiting for the world to recognize her genius, there are a half-dozen struggling artists who simply have no talent whatsoever. Verad is willing to sell the works of these inferior aesthetes for a small percentage of the sale, in the hopes that the inspiration of a sale will convince them to improve enough to be considered average.

==Items Not For Sale==

There are some things Verad won't touch.

'''Narcotics''' - Omnipresent and a health hazard, and Verad's own standards would ensure they are even more hazardous.

'''Illicit Goods and Services''' - Dubious is one thing, nefarious another. While Verad will work with the criminal underclasses, he will not directly deal in slaves or contraband.

'''Food Services''' - After an ill-fated incident involving scoops of chilled bavarois during the Ul'dah summer, Verad is banned from selling foodstuffs.

'''Weapons and Armor''' - Because Verad cannot guarantee that someone's life will not be put at risk by shoddy equipment, Verad refuses to sell wooden swords, rusty mail, and other typical starting gear for adventurers.

==Relationships==
<spoiler>

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Alienne Sandraix]] - One of Verad's first bodyguards, one he didn't so much hire was find himself forced to employ when she overheard him talking about his new inheritance. She has proven to be an able, if dim-witted, guard, and has also proven herself as a saleswoman of dubious products. Her ability to say exactly the wrong thing in any situation is making Verad seriously consider a gag order as part of her contract.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Anstarra Silverain]] - A fellow member of the Harbingers, Verad was quickly charmed by Anstarra's quick wits and pleasantly teasing demeanor. Even after Verad's departure from the Harbingers, she has proven a close friend and ally.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Aya Foxheart]] - Verad and Ul'dah's best bartender - "The Jewel of the Quicksand" as he likes to call her - are friendly acquaintances, a state brought on by their generally positive attitudes and Verad's willingness to request bizarre drinks. He is also fond of her cookies.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Burning Edge]] - The former gladiator-turned-legal-slaver played a pivotal role in the matter of Verad's vandalized "office," to the extent that a tentative relationship had begun to develop, one built around him doing dumb things and her hitting him for it. Having left the debt-trading business following the events at the Coblyn's Fancy, her own spending habits caught up to her to such an extent that she was forced to take hard labor to make ends meet. She disappeared from Ul'dah shortly before Verad inherited an estate - one he would have gladly let her reside in for free. He was left with the sense that life is not often kind to those who make the right choices.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Coatleque Crofte]] - A Sultansworn with whom Verad is acquainted. While not particularly close, he is favorably inclined towards her because of her professional behavior while in service and her kindness towards Roen during her brief imprisonment. She has also read his memoirs, which can make for awkward conversation. After stabilizing him and saving his life after being assaulted, Verad feels himself personally indebted to her, but her recent choices in companionship have left him terribly confused.

<font size="3">●</font> [[Jameson Taeros]] - A man Verad has seen once and never truly met, he nevertheless has what limited ire the Duskwight can muster, in part because of his actions and how they have affected Roen, and in part because of his role in having Verad assaulted.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Jihl Wilzuun]] - Verad is favorably inclined towards this young Miqo'te through her timid but generally positive disposition. However, his interest in Anstarra may be putting a strain on any real friendship.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Kiht Jakkya]] - Matron of the Shroudwolf Clan. The two initially resolved to work together to help Roen out of their mutually-held esteem for the woman, but their relationship has become a friendship of its own. Kiht has offered Verad materials for sale, a safehouse when his actions against Taeros turned sour, and aid when investigating the problems of Quarrymill. He will be among the first to defend her and her Clan to others should the need arise, and has indeed done so, offering shelter for the newly formed Shroudwolf after they split from the Morbolvine.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font> [[Leanne Delphium]] - Recently saved Verad's life. Any arguments they've had in the past have fallen completely by the wayside.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Misha Jinhri]] - A relative stranger, Misha intervened in the Brass Blades' assault on Verad, pulling him to safety along with Leanne and taking him to recuperate with the Morbolvine.

<font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font>[[Nihka Mioni]] - The clan alchemist and healer of first the Morbolvine and now the Shroudwolf Clan, Verad first encountered her when seeking aid and equipment from the Morbolvine in seeking equipment during his robberies of Taeros' warehouse holdings. The two struck up a very quick friendship, and Verad has started to see himself as an increasingly parental figure in her life - a position that, if recipcrocal, he would be happy to accept.

<font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font>[[Odile Dornier]] - A folk-healer from Gridania, Odile has ruined Verad's ability to sell non-medicinal snake oil by pointing out that it's actually quite useful. He still thinks she's a stunner though. She has recently accepted a post in Dubious Distributions as an in-house healer and a source of folk magic - an offer made in part because Verad recognizes the nature of some of her practices as a placebo.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">$</font><font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Osric Melkire]] - One of Verad's "regulars" - that is to say, someone who has purchased his goods more than once.

<font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font>[[Spahro Llorn]] - On the one hand, Ul'dah's top reporter has written libelous articles about Verad and forced him to flee the city on at least one occasion. On the other, she has also proven that her desire for a story can be turned to good ends with the right circumstances. Verad remains leery and treats her as a business contact more than a friend.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Renae Lecuyer]] - Upon inheriting Xhosa Tauzeh's estate, Verad also inherited control over Ms. Lecuyer, her servant and retainer. She currently serves around the estate to perform various odd jobs and security and to act as a deadpan straight-person to Verad's more outrageous ideas.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Roen Deneith]] - Verad met this former Sultansworn while temporarily on vacation in Limsa Lominsa after a misunderstanding regarding accidental cactuar smuggling in Ul'dah. Over time, he has come to see her as an exemplar of what an Ul'dahn ought to be, and has offered his assistance with her troubles out of personal loyalty. That loyalty was strained, however, when it became clear to Verad that the intentions of Deneith's allies might harm Ul'dah more than help, and a betrayal of her confidence has led to a split between the two and the realization that idealizing her did not let him see her as a person. Time will tell if this can be mended.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">$</font><font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Xhosa Tauzeh]] - One of Verad's few "big clients," he met Xhosa while trying to sell a stash of burnt books. She not only accepted the entire stash, but has established a regular large purchase of many of his goods. After several months away from Thanalan, Xhosa stunned him by bequeathing her estate to him in its entirety upon her return.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Y'mheena Pahsj]] - Y'mheena represents something Verad both dreads and desires - a competitor, at least in the Cactu-Puncture business if in none of his other goods. Their conversations can range from the cooperative to the caustic, depending on moment-to-moment goals. Following Y'mheena's shameless theft of his Cactu-Puncture services, they have recently come to an understanding regarding their separate spheres of influence.

<font style="color:#4e9362;" size="3">●</font>[[Yune Tabrisviel]] - A new member of the Harbingers, Verad's attempt at thanking her for healing an injury suffered in archery practice led to the initiation of hostilities with another member, but also began a strong friendship between he and the Miqo'te keeper.

'''Flame Sergeant Kale Aideron''' is an Ul'dahn sipahi (or cavalryman) of the Immortal Flames Bloodsworn. A native of Pearl Lane, Kale is a six year veteran of the Grand Company and a mercenary troop for a decade prior, and has done little else but deal with conflict throughout his entire life. An oft-times intense individual with strong convictions, Kale is very outspoken about how he thinks things should be, but is otherwise a mostly affable and outgoing man who enjoys facing Eorzea's challenges in the company of others.

==<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#000000;font-size:14px;color:#E0E0E0;"><b>Character</b></div>==

<table style="position:center;" width="75%">
<tr>
<center>''"I just do my job. Nothin' more, nothin' less"''</center>

Proud and upstanding, Kale is a hardened soldier who values forthrightness, diligence, and tradition. Though happy to joke, flirt, and laugh when appropriate, Kale is veritably no-nonsense in situations he perceives to require a suitable sense of gravitas. With high standards of himself, others, and society, Kale seeks to espouse the best of Ul'dahn law and order, unwavering in fulfilling the duties of his station. His belligerence towards those he sees as hostile to the Sultanate's way of life is rooted in nothing more than powerful convictions and a stubborn loyalty to his worldview. Nonetheless, his professional attitude means that he will almost always put aside his personal disagreements when either lives or laws are in danger.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#707070;font-size:14px;color:#E0E0E0;">Appearance</div>===
<table style="position:center;" width="75%">
<tr>
<center>''"Strength 'as nothin' to do with 'ow we look like -to- others, but 'ow we look -at- others."''</center>
:'''Body:''' Broad shouldered and large chested, Kale might just be saved from being too much of a stereotypical Highlander by virtue of not being all that tall. In fact, compared to other Highlander men, Kale may even be considered short. Far from lean but equally distant from being gratuitously muscular, Kale's occupation as a soldier means that he is always burning excess fat and bulk, even despite his Highlander genetics combined with continuous physical conditioning and a large appetite. Many wounds and scars are visible when Kale wears clothing that reveals areas of his torso or other appendages. They are all faded, indicating that conjury or other forms of healing came too late to prevent permanent marking.<br>

:'''Face:''' A very defined bone structure characterizes Kale's facial features. A large nose sticks out between a low brow that gives Kale an almost intense resting expression. Kale's somewhat narrow eyes betrays their striking bronze hue, set above a pair of prominent cheekbones and slightly gaunt cheeks. In turn, these features sit above a distinct jaw and somewhat rounded, jutting chin. His calloused and rough skin is worn from a mixture of age, sun, and battle. The corners of his eyes are creased, and his forehead is a touch wrinkled. A single scar is set across his left cheek, a couple of ilms or so in length.

:'''Hair:''' Kale never has his hair longer than an ilm, almost always shaven. He frequently carves traditional Highlander clan patterns into his buzzed hair by making cleaner shaves along his scalp, considering this one of his few hobbies. His thin stubble appears to be shaven daily, and meticulously.

:'''Fashion:''' As a Grand Company soldier, Kale wears a Flame uniform appropriate to the current duty and in accordance with his rank. This varies from the standard grey combat dress to the elaborate armour of a Flame elite. As an off-duty Ul'dahn, he can be seen wearing various kurtas and matching turbans, blending in with the citizenry of Ul'dah. His plain sense of dress means he may not be able to be identified from the crowd of commonfolk, which is more than ideal in his mind.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#707070;font-size:14px;color:#E0E0E0;">Behavior</div>===
<table style="position:center;" width="75%">
<tr>
<center>''"Please, tell us more 'bout 'ow much more bloody special you are than the rest of us...I insist"''</center>
:'''Voice:''' Slightly deep and only faintly hoarse, Kale may talk very quickly for some. This is quite noticeable with Kale's habit of arbitrarily amalgamating or crudely conjugating words and dropping entire letters in pronunciation of certain syllables. His accent puts his origins as someone from Pearl Lane, or alternatively as someone who has spent their time as a rank-and-file soldier for many summers.

:'''Demeanor:''' Aggressively gregarious, Kale is extremely friendly presuming whoever he is engaging with meets his specific set of standards. A staunch traditionalist, Kale is intolerant of nonconformists and those who do not fit in with his world view, with a no-nonsense attitude towards those who believe themselves in possession of greater merit than others. This is generally true of adventurers, who, in Kale's mind, are the most prone to quirky or self-aggrandizing behaviours. He perceives these types of adventurers as self-indulgent, and a waste to a society of which he believes values more pragmatic pursuits. However, Kale does occasionally give certain persons the benefit of the doubt, constructively scrutinizing them in the open as he decides whether or not the individual in question is worth his time. If not, Kale is prone to being outspoken about those with "offensive" lifestyles.

:'''Quirks:''' Kale is expressive with his body language, prone to placing his hands on his hips when feeling confident about a social situation, or crossing his arms when reserved or pensive (often, this may be reversed). Gesticulation is a frequent habit, flailing or sweeping his arms should he feel excited about a particular topic. In contrast, Kale is relatively still should he be unimpressed by someone or something. He often rubs the back of his neck when nervous or embarrassed. He is racist towards Miqo'te, believing them to be an uncivilized and backwards race (especially when it comes to gender relations) akin to a beast tribe, with no place in the civilized walls of the city-states. However, Kale's pride in being professional and discretionary means he may keep this opinion to himself when he finds himself working alongside a Miqo'te individual.

:'''Intelligence:''' Kale can not be considered formally educated, and instead relies on personal wisdom and a reserve of knowledge accumulated over the years. This knowledge mostly pertains to political and military affairs, with trivia about the various places he has visited during his lifetime. He believes himself astute about the motivations of others, which he has applied to tactical decision-making when serving in a leadership capacity. Situational awareness and strategic thinking he considers a forte of his, particularly the ability to think and remain cool under pressure. Kale has only pedestrian knowledge about the supernatural realm, accumulated primarily when dealing with enemies who rely on arcane arts. Somewhat uncharacteristic of Kale is his tendency to occasionally use advanced vocabulary, which betrays his plebian accent. It may be possible that this habit was learned during Kale's time as a senior sergeant in the Immortal Flames, as well as through frequent interactions with commissioned officers and other educated persons.<br>

==<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#000000;font-size:14px;color:#E0E0E0;"><b>Combat</b></div>==
<center>''"Fuckin' kill the enemy, or don't. Lives depend on it"''</center>
:'''Style''': An extremely offensive combatant, Kale finds himself compelled to be at the epicenter of any altercation with the enemy. As he does not hold a specific code of honour or set of principles in warfare (beyond basic humanity and common sense), Kale does not shy away from using more brutal methods in seeking to defeat the enemy. This might include the breaking of limbs or the infliction of grievous facial injury, most assuredly so when there is a need to demoralize other enemies nearby. Not particularly fast or slow, Kale alters his speed of combat as and when required, focusing on the most efficient (but not necessarily the cleanest) ways of extinguishing the enemy. Kale puts emphasis on dismemberment or disembowelment when there is a need for expedience.

:'''Specialization''': Toe-to-toe engagement with all types of swords and shields, either against single or multiple foes. Frontline fighting alongside other melee combatants in a general military formation. Kale can combine his gladiator discipline with pugilist training. Alternatively, Kale can fight unarmed entirely with a relatively slow and powerful form, emphasizing impact and damage over speed and dexterity. Skilled in fighting on chocoboback. Competent in the use of axes, lances, crossbows, and firearms.

:'''Strengths''': Kale has been in the fighting business as his primary occupation for the entirety of his adult life and the majority of his adolescence. As an extensively trained disciple of war then, Kale has experience with a wide variety of opponents, although these are mostly military or paramilitary in nature. Overpowering the enemy via head-on combat with skilled swordsmanship, strength, and endurance comes naturally to him, especially weapon-on-weapon engagements. Kale has the most experience with human opponents, as well as the beast races (Amalj'aa and Qiqirn most notably).

:'''Weaknesses''': Kale's narcissistic obsession with victory and the submission of his opponent can be exploited by more calculating or restrained foes, particularely those who desensitize themselves to the fight or who are otherwise not so passionate. In addition, the compulsion to be showy and theatrical leaves him vulnerable to clinical opponents who care not for Kale's attempts at intimidation. He can also be overcome by speed and agility, or unorthodox fighters who could throw a battlefield fighter off-guard. Kale's lack of experience with magic makes him exceptionally vulnerable to this discipline, and this is a surefire method to drain his iron fortitude.

:'''Armour''': Kale is capable in all armour designs, from plate and chainmail to leather. Years of marching in the field while equipped in heavy armour is one of the primary factors in conditioning his physique and shaping his defined musculature. As a result, Kale can move in heavier material at only a slightly slower pace than if he were wearing lighter fabrics.

<table style="position:center;" width="75%">
<tr>
<center>''"What 'bout it?"''</center>
:*As a cavalryman, Kale is very frequently seen with his chocobo, Eskandar. He is known to ramble to Eskandar, and otherwise treat the bird as having human-like qualities.
:*Lone wolves are a particular dislike of Kale's, who values teamwork and group effort instead.
:*Kale has an aversion to thaumaturgy and its practitioners.
:*Kale's favourite non-alcoholic drink is mint lassi, and he is a particular fan of dodo omelette.
:*Kale does not really have any hobbies or interests, completely dedicated to city-state service and the disciplines of war. However, he's somewhat skilled at cards, developing this habit during long shifts on watch.
:*Kale likes to smoke from an off-white long-stemmed pipe from time-to-time.
:*Dalamud red is Kale's favourite colour.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#707070;font-size:14px;color:#E0E0E0;">Traits</div>===
<table style="position:center;" width="75%">
<tr>
<center>''"Who the fuck is this? Oh, it's 'im?! Ploughin' great to meet you, mate!"''</center>
:'''Positive traits''':
:*'''Friendly and boisterous''': Assuming Kale finds nothing offensive about a particular social situation, he can be counted on to stimulate interaction between a group of friends of acquaintances, and seeks to be inclusive, even with more quiet types.
:*'''Pathologically honest''': Kale's directness means that his opinions and whatever else comes out from his sometimes loud mouth can be taken at face value. This has made him nigh incorruptible.
:*'''Hard-working and professional''': Work first, play later, Kale has worked hard throughout his entire life. Kale can be relied on to put a tremendous amount of effort to any task within his skillset in an efficacious manner. In addition, he values himself as a serious professional, crushing sloppiness and inefficiency in whatever he touches.
:*'''Consistent and loyal''': Kale takes his commitments seriously, and values stability over all else. He is thus rarely inconsistent, and can be entrusted with matters that demand an aversion to deviation. Loyal as well, Kale will silence his outspoken self and obey the orders of those he believes rightfully appointed over him.
:*'''Protective''': Often ignoring his own wellbeing (especially emotional), Kale espouses the value of others and will always ensure that everyone is safe and secure. Indeed, even if he does not like a particular individual on a personal level, he will stand up for them either verbally or physically should Kale believe that the subject in question has done nothing wrong on a societal and/or professional level.
:*'''Strong leader''': With a need to be in control of any situation, Kale makes a very good leader for most practical pursuits, being able to fall back on years of military experience to aid him in this.

:'''Negative traits''':
:*'''Tendency to believe he is always right''': Kale feels that his personal belief system is merely an echo of the principles that Ul'dahn society espouses, and since society is seen to him as something that shelters countless thousands, he has a hard time buying into the possibility his worldview may or may not have its flaws.
:*'''Very demanding and critical''': Kale's extremely high standards and stubborn disposition means he often does not hold back in calling out someone or something he finds disagreeable. This can be detrimental in circumstances that value cooperation and compromise. He has high expectations of others, and will freely admonish those who fail to hold up.
:*'''Intolerant of idiosyncrasies and nonconformity''': Valuing the good of society above all else, Kale is impatient with individuals whom he believes do not contribute to the greater whole. He is belligerent to those he feels to espouse these sorts of lifestyles.
:*'''Controlling with a strong need to be in charge''': Despite Kale's strong leadership traits, his obsession with domination can go either way when it is not satisfied. Either Kale will become awkward and quiet, or abrasive and argumentative. He especially does not like being ignored or not listened to when he believes himself to be in the right. When protective to the extreme, Kale can be controlling of people close to him, especially so when he feels that he knows what is best for them. He will become angry and frustrated when someone behaves counter to what Kale believes to be in their best interest.
:*'''Insensitive''': Though Kale can sometimes tackle matters of personal emotions with a grounded and rational approach, he is guilty of valuing his personal principles higher than the feelings of others. This can hurt those who value interpersonal harmony over uncompromising loyalty to principle.
:*'''Appearance conscious''': Kale's strong belief in conforming to tradition means that he is very conscious of his appearance, not just with clothing but with conducting himself in public. He is prone to prudishness despite not coming from an affluent background, and will often seek to impose this sense of appropriateness on others. Kale is also very disapproving of those who wear 'incorrect' fashions. He is known to take strong issue and vocalize his disagreements with adventurers who wear armour and other outfits that either has considerable historical/political significance, or is alien enough in design to stand out from normality.

: ● '''[[Anzio Zansio]]''' - A young Lalafellin lad and Immortal Flame soldier. Anzio had served alongside Kale since the inception of the Flame Yataghans to the latter's untimely departure, leading the unit together through major engagements such as Operation Archon in northern Thanalan. As such, Kale regards Anzio in high esteem, and would gladly lay down his life for his former comrade-in-arms.
: ● '''[[Sarcire Sinclair]]''' - A Hyuran woman whom Kale has known for a while, encountering her at random times (which the Ul'dahn has rationalized as her being some powerhungry mage in search of...more power). Kale appreciates the assistance Sarcire has given him thus far, and takes particular enjoyment in trying to assert his large ego over her perceived arrogance.
: ● '''[[Avila Ashton]]''' - Kale's half-sister. The two had discovered they were related during Kale's estrangement with the Immortal Flames. Protective but nonetheless loving, Kale's prioritization of blood over water means he is fiercely intolerant of anyone whom he believes to be trying to get in between himself and his sister.
: ● '''[[Ruruni Runi]]''' - A Lalafellin lass and weaver. Kale enjoys the simple interactions he shares with the fellow company member, seeing it as a pleasant escape from life's intensities.
: ● '''[[Avalt Laguz]]''' - A Hyuran mage with a Sylph-like manner of speaking. Kale finds this young man odd, and often treats him with hostility and impatience. Kale bears no illwill or malice to the man, however, seeing him as ultimately harmless.
: ● '''[[Ciel Wulfe]]''' - An Elezen bard who recruited Kale into the Sword & Rose Order. Initially, the pair's different backgrounds and upbringing caused several miscommunications and misunderstandings, but recently the two have come to see one another as friends and comrades. Although from two completely separate worlds, with the Hyur valuing stability and security and the Elezen valuing a more open-ended life, the pair are beginning to appreciate one another's differences.
: ● '''[[Oni De'phor]]''' - A Midlander lancer that Kale met within the Order. Kale finds him quite strange with the mysterious duality, and continues to give the man the benefit of the doubt.
: ● '''[[Coatleque Crofte]]''' - A stoic member of the Sultansworn that Kale has encountered many times within Ul'dahn city walls. Kale perceives her as overly and perhaps needlessly formal, but nonetheless respects her as a fellow disciple of war in service to the Sultanate. This is no doubt in part because he finds her ability to see the world how he does most agreeable.
: ● '''[[Bartolomeo Filangieri]]''' - An upstanding Hyuran paladin whom Kale does not see often, but is always happy to find himself in Bartolomeo's company whenever the two do encounter one another. Kale does wonder how he could spend more time with this gentleman.
: ● '''[[Jancis Milburga]]''' - A Lominsan conjurer that Kale has become acquainted with through happenstance. Kale is appreciative of her compassionate and charitable outlook, but finds disagreement in both her willingness to assist just about anyone, and her associations with individuals the Highlander dislikes.
: ● '''[[Deirdre Ta'ea]]''' - An aloof and quiet Elezen woman, to whom Kale was extremely suspicious and hostile towards at first. Deirdre's entrenchment within Kale's free company has led to the two to pursue a cordial relationship, but Kale is still unsure what to make of the woman.
: ● '''[[Otto Vann]]''' - A Monetarist playboy, Kale has thus far only made note of Otto for just how eccentric his lifestyle seems to be.

'''Jancis Milburga''', a [[Category:Hyur|midlander hyur]], is an merchant's daughter orphaned in the Twelveswood and forced to come into her own.
==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Appearance''</div>==
Jancis is overall quite plain in her manner of attire and appearance; though she keeps herself kept she does not follow the fashion or trends of higher classes or wear makeup.
Her hands are soft and she'll typically wear gloves to protect them. [[http://imgur.com/a/7x8pw Album of References]]

Jancis has an alto voice range and no vocal training.

'''Beyond what the character actually wears:'''
*Around her neck is a simple chain holding a handmade ring with a lapis lazuli gem in it.
*Has a plain handkerchief of cotton (not always the same one she constantly gives it away).
*Typically has a small book-sized satchel containing basic medical supplies, a map, and a waterskin.
*There is a wand or other natural-wood on her person or in her satchel.

'''Scars:'''
*A knife scar across her cheek done in a traditional design which has stretched and faded as she's come into adulthood. Received as a child.
*A keloid scar with a spider-like style with thin branches on her stomach and on her lower back; gotten from being impaled with a conjured stalagmite from [[Melfice Vainchelon]] in disguise.
*Right shoulder has small jagged scars from the claws and teeth of a possessed imp attack. Received while rescuing [[L'aenoh Tia]] from a dark blood mage.
*Three indented slots on her left side starting at her lower ribs which look like a giant fork stabbed her (which is what happened). Inflicted by [[Augustine Frost]] while under the influence of "Pink Primal" [[Memeli Meli]].
*Left arm has speckled skin coloring from burns and aether damage, a mix caused by [[Jana Ridah]], [[Delial Grimsong]], and fighting Louvel for [[Ja'ren A'lenthin]].

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''General Demeanor''</div>==
Jancis is awkward socially, ranging from blunt questions to over elaborate sentences as if talking in a storybook.
She calls nearly everyone by some kind of title and will avoid saying the name of people she does not care about.

Having a kind heart, Jancis is very patient and forgiving with others. She's happiest when she is feeling useful and is a good follower.
Has a soft spot for children and young animals, but in general she's very 'hands on' touching people on their arms or shoulders and taking their hands to make connection.

Fearless and willing to speak up to bring about understanding and clarification on matters she finds to be wrong, particularly if it is hurting someone.
Defensive of friends and allies, or those she deems in duress, she will stand up in protection and literally block words or physical attempts of harm.

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Combat - Views/Behavior''</div>==
[[File:Mark Crilley Manga Shading.jpg|350px|right]]
*<b>Skills</b>
:*While not very smart in battle, Jancis does not fear it. She will go in and try to support everyone she's an ally with regardless of her own safety.
:*As a conjurer, Jancis is sensitive to the elements and through training has become more sensitive to the aether and magicks around people she's close to, giving her an edge on healing serious conditions at crucial times.
:*She's light of foot and quick to find a place she thinks will not hinder her allies.
:*She is trained in poisons and venoms, taking them herself in small doses to build up an immunity. She will use it as a rudimentary attack by throwing and misting as a distraction.
:*Trained with basics of a shield and staff. Usually does not have both at once and will two-hand whichever she has. Carries a wand and has natural items on her person at all times to form conjuration.

*<b>Weaknesses</b>
:*Jancis is typically too preoccupied watching her allies she fails to watch out for herself and would be an easy target.
:*Her strength and dexterity in a fight is not too keen and she would easily fall in one-on-one battle.
:*Her ability to "read" aether is a novice level, so things that are unnatural or done by an arcanist she cannot undo by the same means. She can do little more than sense the presence of aether.
:*Being a conjurer, she relies on her voice to call out to the elements to assist her. Anything that would hinder that or interrupt her would leave her to rely on physical abilities alone.

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Tendencies''</div>==
[[File:Jancis Milburga 16-bits - by Ilweran zpsregqfop1.gif|right]]
:*Jancis grew up mostly on her own out in the wild of the Shroud. Her habits and words do not follow current culture 100%; she will use odd terms and not understand idioms.
:*Wearing pants her entire childhood, she compensates for typical 'style' by wearing leggings.
:*Apologizes constantly.
:*Tends to be hands-on with people, touching their arm or shoulder, and does not understand the concept of personal space.
:*Gives everyone a title, typically using their first name along with it. Lord, Lady, Master, Sir [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=8054&pid=103830#pid103830 Resource]]

• '''[[A'rho Tia]]''' - A humorous and giving aether user and something of an artist to Jancis. She is easily enchanted and smiling at the man for his witty humor and curious ways he shows care to those around him, particularly his twin brother and L'aenoh. "Master A'rho".<spoiler>
[[File:Arho_wiki_profilepic.png|200px]]<br>
'''Notes'''
*Has a twin brother A'randr, who is he very close to.
*Can manipulate aether into a carbuncle as an extension of himself.
'''Current Goals'''
*Understand why A'rho is Marked by the Mistress. During the fight, A'rho came by and was helping with the wounded at Coralhaus. Asked to look into this voidsent Gwendolyn, he takes a sample of everyone's blood to hopefully figure out the problem. Becomign marked himself, he's called everyone affected together to share information and come to a resolution.
*See if he can help with L'aenoh's condition
'''Past Events'''
*Met via Rinilda and spoke in-length at the Grindstone one night about healing and even assisted in smaller wounds.
*Met again and spent a good deal of time together during All Saint's Wake where the man continued to encourage and compliment the conjurer's costume.
:*Won the story contest with the girl and mirror.
*Most of the time he comes around the house, Jancis gets distracted and unknowingly helps the man steal many of the juice boxes L'aenoh keeps at the bar.
*Coming to Leanne's picnic, Jancis aether travels with A'randr and he gets very sick. She tells A'rho who claims that his brother could have died and is furious. She feels very calleous and neglectful for leaving A'randr as he was.
</spoiler>
• '''[[A'randr Tia]]''' - Shy smiling man, Jancis has a strange fondess for the quiet and stoic figure. Finding him quiet and kind with a weird awkward bashfulness, she always tries to talk to him for no particular reason. "Lord A'randr"<spoiler>
[[File:Aran001.png|200px]]<br>
'''Notes'''
*Brother of A'rho
*Has sweaty hands
*Sells tobacco and other smoking novelties.
*Enjoys juice boxes, particularly apple.
'''Current Goals''''
*Apologize and make up for leaving the man in dire pain at Fallgourd
*A'randr found out that A'rho has been marked and asked for a sample of blood to follow-up with, giving to alchemists he knows. Find out what results the man receives.
'''Past Events''''
*Met at the All Saint's Wake party, unable to talk to him with all the commotion and crowd.
*Going to Leanne's picnic, the two travel via aether which leaves A'randr ill. Telling her to go on ahead, Jancis finds out later how bad it affected him.
*Making a leftover eel dinner, Jancis asks Sigurd to make juice which the twins help with. Coming over with surprise cake, A'randr destroys an orange in his hand which Jancis helps clean off while quoting from a book.
:*“If love were a color, it'd be orange. Not because that's a romantic color, but because it's the sweetest. If you want to know how I feel about you, I just made some juice out of it. Grab a glass—a tall one.”
</spoiler>
♠ '''[[Alveo Soulseeker]]''' - Jancis met Alveo while working as a support in the same Free Company and ended up having feelings for the sailor. Once recovered from his life-long ordeal, they confessed their feelings for one another and were to be wed.<spoiler>
'''Past Events'''
*Uponing joining the Harbingers of Dawn company, Jancis got wrapped up in a personal condition of one of the soldiers. By chance missing the worst of his afflicted curse; she ended up trusting Alveo and his companion Rynn.
:*While mostly being forced to be a source of outsider support, Jancis continued to bring aid and deal with the awkward man with a gruff demeanor. She was there when Alveo defeated Illear, freeing himself, and found him to be much more than a cold husk.
*Looking to prove her worth and ease the conscious of her beloved, Jancis joined the Maelstrom as a medic. Unknown to her, this only caused her lover more worry and concern. Her current work has her going along the coastal towns assisting the locals with their ailments and concerns.
*''Al-well that ends well'': After many trips North to find her beloved and assist him in his ordeals and endeavors, Jancis continued to find only traces left behind by the man. Contacting his other friends and mentors, whom had not heard of his ventures nor received word back from him, as well as sending multiple letters she was assisted in the end by another friend who confirmed Alveo was actively receiving her correspondence and was going on his own missions of his own accord. Though heartbroken, she learned to live with his decision and discontinued her trips North or holding out for contact; knowing his indecision before about a life of settling down and his refusal to put her into danger clearly trumped any importance she held on his heart previously.
*Being brave and strong-headed in a rare occasion, Jancis lost her proper demeanor with Sir Filangieri which led to a complicated encounter with the two. Alveo finding out and taking it poorly, Jancis decided in order to "forgive herself" to take up a huge amount of debt to protect Alveo. Jancis was indebted to Lady Tasa.
:*Reuniting with Alveo by chance while working, he convinced her that they could "go home", but the soldier's true intentions were to goad the knight Sir Filangieri into a fight. After being humiliated in front of the others, Jancis was strained with thoughts of giving up on her beloved. The situation was more compounded by his additional apologies and a very intimate offer. Jancis' trust in Alveo has improved dramatically from the sailor's continued efforts to compromise with the stubborn knight.
*Key events including rejoining the Maelstrom, night of the Pumpkin Cafe opening, and Dhemgeim's nameday celebration have solidified Jancis' commitment to Alveo.
*In a show of loyalty and to give Alveo clarity, Jancis has entrusted him with her most precious possession: a silver charm bracelet, infant-sized, with a seashell-shaped charm bearing the engraving "L.F.".
*At Alveo's lack of concern and mix-up that he intended to take on a near suicidal job for a shady mercenary group, she struck him. Anytime this is brought up, Jancis feels very guilty.
*Alveo proposed on the 30th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon, after the Grindstone they traveled to the Sagoii Desert where the two had first realized how much they cared for one another. While Jancis did not grow up knowing such culture of marriage outside of fictional books, she is excited about the title and reacts to it, particularly from Alveo.
*With a surprising change, Alveo has gone North to assist his mentor in an emergency call. Cleaning out their home and resigning from his position with the Coral Sea and the Maelstrom.
*With little word of his departure, Jancis finds his mentor and learns he has no information on his departure nor had insight of it, much as he does not care for the woman.

He left quite an impression on her from his approach and kindness, even taking a particular interest in one of her childish toys. After a particularly crucial fight Jancis has dropped her overly-polite demeanor with the knight which can easily be taken the wrong way. She also reacts acutely to his mannerisms, be them good or bad. She will follow his direction without question. Jancis will refer to him as "Sir Filangieri" strictly. Whereabouts unknown.<spoiler>

Though Jancis fails to understand much of the subtle work Cici does, she still will speak up about the shadow sides of it.

To others Jancis will refer to her as "Lady Crofte" but personally will call her "CiCi". [[http://imgur.com/a/iSkZu#6 Gallery]] <spoiler>

After offering, Jancis looks for Cici to find out more about the problem. Both talk about it, learning that Master Vann has turned down an offer from Lady McBeef to get involved.

*With cunning knowledge, Dhemgeim is one of the few to figure out Memeli's clues to recovering all the food in the Coral pantry from her hijinks. With the reward of a kiss, Dhemgeim, Tausenadel, and Jancis all succumb to Memeli's 'pink tempering'.

The three decide to go to Faolan's house in Coerthas to find out what they can.

<font style="color: #AC58FA" size="3">♥</font> '''[[L'aenoh Tia]]''' - Trained and rustic swordsman with few wits about him beyond his heart. Continues to do the best for this "hunter" as far as dealing with his wounds and problems from his past. Jancis now cooks a particular skillet bread specifically avoiding baking for his sake. Also is very protective of the man and will put up with most anything he dishes out, but continues to fail to protect him from harm since healing is a large ordeal for the man. He is something of a weakness for Jancis, getting upset easily about someone threatening to harm him or actually harming him. Other names "Ganzjaega", "Abarsoemr", referred to as "Sir L'aenoh"<spoiler>

*Carries people like sacks of popotos.
'''Current Goals'''
*Understand the glyph on his back and find a way to remove it.
*Talk him out of relying on Hnaba's 'mentor' for his problems.
'''Past Events'''
*Jancis truly met the man after Dhemgeim impaled Captain Renaud, particularly for glaring at Alveo.
*While baking cupcakes with Hnaba and Memeli, Jancis takes a look at the empty socket L'aenoh's eye was in, which he hadn't cleaned. She insists on cleaning it out and finds out more about the hornet that stung it and festered. First hint that the man cannot be healed, but Jancis completely misses it.
*Touch based on with dealing with the man's odd behavior of staying away from everyone, particularly Zhen. The two later on drifted apart.
*''Hunting the Hunter;What is Love? Hnaba Don't Hurt Me, Don't Hurt me, No more..''L'aenoh Tia is kidnapped from the Coral House which leads into a nightmarish love crush with a demented woman and the painful aftermath.
:*L'aenoh is taken from the Coral house, Still Shore, by force.
:*Following any leads she can find regarding the struggle and kidnapping of his man which has led her to Gridania. Following her Guildmaster's urgings that the elements speak of a disturbance in the Central Shroud along with fellow company members Tausenadel Geispyrsyn, Q'nagali Yehn, Guillaume Rigolant, and Hnaba Jinjahl. As Hnaba leaves to search other leads, the other four find Hnaba at the place of the disturbance alone; a house covered in blood with an obvious place of capture with other such horrors of gore. Confronting the miqo'te, Hnaba slips down a secret passage in the floor which the other give chase on.
:*The group finally catch up to Hnaba in a defiled spire, surrounded by imp-like creatures that cry out thankfully in men's voices when slain. The fight proves difficult, knocking out Q'nagali and Guillaume from severe injuries, but eventually the remaining Coral manage to subdue the insane woman.
:*After much probing and being forced to a point to batter Hnaba with her shield, L'aenoh is found still clinging to life in a cell. Jancis' is particularly troubled by another corpse that is found in the search that was dressed up in L'aenoh's clothes but was burnt to death. The only way she could tell it was not the miqo'te was his eyepatch was on the wrong side.
:*Recovering and returning to the Padjal E-Sumi-Yan, Hnaba is handed over to the Wood Wailers and the rest of the company's wounds are treated by the conjurers. The same evening, L'aenoh is found by Staefrue wandering south back towards La Noscea. Panicked, Jancis give chase on foot to the wounded man. Unable to deny his tortured request the three travel to their house, the Still Shore, aggravating Jancis' wounds. Having to backtrack to Gridania and other locations, Jancis continues to delay her own healing and recovery.
:*Making a grave error in trying to heal L'aenoh further, Jancis resolves to find what Hnaba poisoned the man with and try it herself so she can duplicate the effects and find a potential treatment for it instead of the trial and error on someone else.
:*Getting help from Chuchukepa Hohokepa, Jancis finds out the main ingredient is somnus. Going to Ul'dah, she looks for a means to treat the withdrawal. L'aenoh also asks her personally to find something to deal with his shakes, be it from forcing the information from Hnaba or other means. Finding the notes of an late alchemist, Jancis goes to reproduce the detoxification serum in hopes it will help the hunter's pains.
:*Cici ends up helping Jancis with the main need of somnus through a mysterious "shadow knight" C'kayah Tia. Jancis is honored for the reason the man decided to help, as if he did not assist in the course of love, he would dishonor his guardian deity.
:*By using notes gained from a dead alchemist and adding in to the somnus a growing percentage of blood plasma and a purifying catalyst, Jancis was able to create a serum that could wean the person off their addiction and rebuild natural functions. While the serum itself takes a lot of blood and an illegal substance, the conjurer is relieved greatly that L'aenoh is able to recover without pain.
:*While recovering from battling the Leviathan, trouble comes from L'aenoh's room to find that Hnaba is there tied to a chair and beaten half to death. Jancis takes action in an ill-swept attempt to take the woman's life in a merciful and quiet manner (quiet as it can be with her screaming). The woman is kept in Stefan's room while L'aenoh mills over believing that she can deal with the seal on his back.
:*Learning that L'aenoh also has a aether flow problem, due to a arcane seal on his person, can contribute to his problem with healing and recovering from his addiction. A'rho Tia is looking into the seal and its structure. He is making the mistake of hoping Hnaba will shed light on his condition and the reason for it. [Scene]
:*After seeing the condition Hnaba is left in and also the house that L'aenoh and Staelufre have together far from the troubles in the Still Shore, Jancis gets L'aenoh to agree to finding out what he wishes in the next few days, or she will return Hnaba to Gridania.
:*Checking in on Hnaba in her 'prison', Jancis is abhorred to see the filthy and broken condition she is in. Franz Renatus fixed her hands and Jancis takes it on herself to wash up the woman. Chaska Dakwhil and Reginald Ozrik are also present, looking on as Jancis is forced to wash the crying Hnaba. Runes are found on the mattress in blood and removed by Franz.
:*Following days L'aenoh take Hnaba out to question her and find out about the seal on his neck, restricting his aether. Learning of a mentor in Southern Shroud, Hnaba is slain, much to the pain of Chaska and Reginald.
*Offers to take Jancis to the Starlight Ball, which she declines because he confesses he was going to ask Lady Edda first and only asked to make Oscare leave. L'aenoh does not trust the man for his blatant declarations of being Garlean.
*Learning that L'aenoh became part of Staelufre's "fury training", the man was wounded which upsets Jancis greatly.
*Attended L'aenoh's bonding to Staelufre, hearing about a fight. In the end it all turned into word fluff, Jancis confirming it over and over.
*During and after helping X'kohu with corrupted crystals embedded in his body, the man kisses Jancis and tries to hold her. L'aenoh keeps a keen eye on the other miqo'te. Jancis bothers her friend for romance novels, or 'warm books' to help her cope with the lack of love.

♥ '''[[Lan Darklyn]]''' - The sword of the Harbingers and knight figure from the desert, Jancis ran into the man and (by chance) became fond of him. A semi-sad coincidence, Lan looks somewhat like Jancis' lost love, save for the short hair and sapphire eyes. The feelings were more complicated as she learned more of the man's past to nearly match with hyur fostering and training, as well as running into one another from short meetings long before. She nearly sees the man as the success she wanted for herself, and tries to assist the man in subtle ways so his life stays happy and prosperous unlike the 'twin' she fell in love with.

*Offered to assist her and the priests of Athlyk in pilgrimage and has continued to have the Harbingers involved, coordinating guards for Halone and having Arrelaine handle Menphina's pilgrimage.

Jancis usually tolerates the lady's antics and is used as a piece of furniture by her.

*Unknown cosmic aetheric powers lie within.
'''Current Goals'''
*Ask for help on being marked by Gwendoline.
*Ask for counsel regarding Virara and this dependance the woman feels to someone she calls 'Master'.
'''Past Events'''
*''Meli the Primal'': After following along with another one of Memeli Meli pranks, many members are sent on a while goose chase for a riddling pantry thief. While "rewarding" Jancis, Meli's kiss leaves an enchantment that makes the conjurer obsess with the lalafel and her wishes.
:*From the serious insistent urging of Jezune Garinthe, Jancis shakes off the spell and is left confused as to what happened.
:*Later on, many others get entranced by Meli's trick and the company is forced to physically fight them to break the enchantment. Memeli gets grounded for her dangerous tricks.
:*In front of the Sultana's area, Jancis defends Memeli in that she did nothing wrong to the Jewel's ruler. Backed up by others of Coral Sea, they all leave.

::*Jancis has three "dash lines" from a lance wound (the lance was shaped like a fork) before of this prank.
*Has been invited to Memeli's room with other ladies for rituals Memeli calls "Slumber Parties".

*Memeli is suffering, sleeping long times and having time lapses in memory. Searching her aether flow, the arcanist's body is flooded with a chaotic ramble of elemental aethers and none with her own distinctive natural mark on any of them. Realizing the woman has supplemented her own powers with random crystals, the fear of her contracting the same curse Dhemgeim had is alleviated. Working with Reinette to help purify the aether flow in Memeli, the condition clears up so the primal can return to her usual activities/schemes.[[http://files.enjin.com.s3.amazonaws.com/623462/module_gallery/original/2205273.jpg Scene]]

Jancis blunders in their friendship by dishonoring the man with her attempts to repay him and make him smile. She continues to watch and visit the man, despite how much his rejection upsets her, doing her best as he ends up running off. "Oscare" "Sir Iono"<spoiler>
[[File:Ffxiv_11012014_182920.png|200px|right]]

*Aged Rumor: ''"It's almost like Nophica herself blessed that girl with the power of eternal kindness. If I ever met a gal nicer than her, I think I may just faint."''
*Jancis met Oscare at the Pumpkin Cafe while he was working as a bouncer along side Cici. Jancis was really taken from his care and concern over Cici's exhaustion, offering to walk them back to the city and giving up all his pay for a room at the inn.
:*After meeting that time, Oscare would often come up behind Jancis and cover her eyes, asking her to guess who he was.
:*After sending him a barrel of pears she picked to show gratitude to helping Cici, the man calls for Jancis over the Coral Linkshell. A ton of the company shows up for this meeting which intimidates the man, but Oscare ends up hugging Jancis and thanking her for the pears and gives her a picture book of his family.
*Jancis had gotten involved with a friend's contract to find a thief. Not knowing the ultimate plans, she knows the man has taken an important heirloom of Oscare's. With Alveo agreeing to assist, she took it to pursue the problem and help the tall hunter. After finding out the man who stole the bow is known to Oscare's family, the man was found in a hideout in the Shroud. Oscare and Alveo took on the group and recovered the heirloom ending in a nasty fight. [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=5431&pid=91226#pid91226 Post]]
:*In a journal of family notes and pictures Oscare gave her, Jancis finds that in some of the pictures of Oscare and his dad, Oscare's dad was carrying a simple bow with a small piece of ruby on both ends of the bow. Overall, it looks like a standard longbow, but with gray and yellow stripes. Oscare's dad has the same skintone as Oscare, same purple eyes, and has vivid red hair.
*After the Grindstone contest where Oscare lost control and tried to kill Hornet, Jancis was charged with caring for the man the night after. Able to visit him at the Agents' bar briefly, Jancis noticed the scarring around his eyes and the color of his eyes a startling violet. Her trust in the man dwindles as he continues to fail controlling himself.
:*Oscare's comments over losing his memory with the Warrior Stone and his current mannerisms are recalling memories of another's actions and behavior, only to conflict Jancis all the more.
:*Ran off crying "I'm sorry." Repeatedly. Jancis has written the Iono family, hoping they have some kind of recourse to comforting the hunter.
:*Attempting to get others to assist in the troubles of the highlander, Jancis contacts Oscare's family for advice, the returning message is from Oscare himself in a very warm and confident letter asking to meet up with her.
:*Meeting with him again, Jancis receives a beautiful rosewood crane figurine Oscare carved himself.
:*Weeks after posters are put up around cities for a Starlight Ball, Oscare comes to the Coral household and, after some fiasco with injuries, Oscare manages to ask if Jancis requires an escort to the Ball in a very awkward and nervous manner. The day after he returns apologizing for asking her and, after remarking on her attire, vanishes again.
::*Oscare attempts once again to ask the conjurer to the Ball, who is immediately snubbed by L'aenoh as he quickly debuffs the attempts by the highlander claiming he would escort the woman.
::*At the Ball itself, Oscare avoids Jancis the entire night, despite her attempts to see him and even offered to dance. After the fact she arrives at his quarters to offer and is once again rebuked.
*Oscare hosts a Story Time out in the cliffsides of La Noscea, where Jancis offers out snacks and tells a children's story about Minglo Moving the Mountain. [[http://i.imgur.com/VUm5jzl.jpg Scene]]
:*Oscare drops off a card from his company, the Agents, thanking Jancis and her company for their assistance in a dispute and discord in their own halls.
:*Getting advice from the bard [[Nathan Telluride]], Jancis once again attempts to help soften Oscare's demeanor and bring out the happy man she first met.
:*[[https://soundcloud.com/akirakosemura/light-dance-with-violin Oscare arrives at the Still Shore in a navy blue suit and performs on the violin as a gift to Jancis.]] "I am happy." "That is also a gift." "Maybe I do it for a reason?" [[http://i.imgur.com/N4zg1nT.jpg Scene]]
:*Oscare performs a song at Halone's pilgrimage which touches Jancis. Trying to hide over the impactful words with clapping, she overdoes it sending the man, once again, away.[[http://www.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=9784&pid=140707#pid140707 Scene and Song]]

:*At the party before the hunter leaves, he gives her a ruby-colored box. The box itself lovely, inside is a very rare scarf made of aether-imbued silk which always has a warmth. [[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=5431&pid=144680#pid144680 Scene and Sketch]]
*Working at the Grindstone, Oscare stops by with his face bruised and beaten. Jancis treats the nose and upper lip despite missing other wounds.[[http://i.imgur.com/DwobiX2.png Scene]]
*Being told she can request his presence 'when she wishes', Jancis invites the highlander to the farmlands in La Noscea to show him a 'magic trick' which is more or less a conjurer training exercise with wind and water. The trick ultimately lures birds to come fly around Oscare in search of seeds. Calling it 'beautiful' he runs off quickly afterward instead of smiling as she hoped.
*Called to the Goblet, Oscare presents her with a little mechanical toy she doesn't really understand beyond its amazing ability to spit out confetti and fanfare. A gift for Little Lady's Day. During so, he confirmed that his actions, gifts, and manner are a show of friendship and not an act of courtship.

By random chance the man continues to come to her for her opinion and now some of her work in dealing with concoctions. More concerned with the man's well-being, Jancis continues to learn and tolerate his extravagant lifestyle to get a glimpse of understanding this man's way of thinking. Very willing to help the man and is still amazed by the amount of detail the man can pay attention to; she cares deeply for the troubles that no one else seems privy to or could even fathom.

*''You Otto Know'': Jancis continues to run into the artist "by chance" and ends up having strange and endearing conversations with. The man's lifestyle is confusing for the conjurer, but she does what she can to help this, overall, good-natured highlander.
:*Jancis is a part-time advisor for the man, trying as she might to make it more as a friendly favor than a paid service.
:*Not finding gil to be overly valuable herself, Jancis continues to turn down the abundance of wealth Otto offers her.
::*In lieu of monetary payment, Otto has gifted her a workspace consisting of a table, chairs, and some tools. He handmade a wardrobe from walnut and other Glade-natural wood and stocked it with a dress and other garments (she uses it for more storage like a pantry as well), and a quilted bed-like fur rug. Many plants as well.
:*In connection with the Sultansworn, Otto asks for Jancis' knowledge and connections with [[Coatleque Crofte]].

She also provides other records of Alveo's activities, proving he has been moving and working beyond need to be away.
:*Though uninterested in the outskirts of Coerthas, Jancis comes to support Otto's fighting ring in comforting fighters and assisting with wounds.
:*Supplies Otto from time to time with a 'medicine' that consists of herbal concentrations of tea to assist the man in sleeping and keeping awake. The orbs are covered in chocolate and are almost more of a placebo as far as how potent the effects are.
:*After the murder of his love, Anna, Jancis hopes to find a way to help the powerful man cope without acting on pure vengeance.
:*Surprised with a luncheon treat, Otto takes Cici and Jancis out for finger sandwiches and pineapple juice on the beach of the Mist after Jancis' ordeal with the warehouse attack. Her body bruised and beaten, he insists she soaks in the shallows while he tells a random story of distraction. [[http://i.imgur.com/rqbJjHA.jpg Scene]]
::*Talking about her own problems, Otto has heard about one of the people who attacked Jancis and how wants to know the other woman's name. Jancis shares what little she knows from Cici, and Otto fills in the other details that it was Jana Ridah among others responsible. [[http://i.imgur.com/1P3qBZH.jpg Scene]]
:*Otto joins the Coral Sea's plight to cease the Leviathan's attack on the coastline and he gets wounded badly. Chaos ensues in the house, leaving Otto to deal with the pain with narcotics and semi-healing. Scarred by the show of weakness and embarrassment that the bruises and wounds would bring to a man of his status, he starts secretly training in lance-work pushing his body to extremes. Finally meeting up with the man, Jancis feels guilty and tries to apologize, but only ends up talking about other 'things of interest' like Leanne's heart and Jancis romantic situation with Z'enath.
::*Doing some simple stretching massage for Otto to help deal with his pain, she continues to look for him in this training so he has time to recover. [[http://i.imgur.com/2JkowNt.jpg Scene]]

♦ '''[[Renaud Becquerel]]''' - Captain of the Coral Sea. Jancis knows very little of this man and finds him full of rumors and contrasting behavior, going between a caring father figure to a careless and ruthless figurehead.

♥ '''[[Reinette Sompt]]''' - Alchemist and the Practitioner of the Coral Sea, Jancis admires the pacifist for her determination and benevolence. She also delights in the many books belonging to the elezen woman. Jancis follows the lady's direction particularly in the welfare and care for the others in the company. "Lady Reinette"<spoiler>
'''Notes'''
*Her right hand is severly burnt from what Jancis knows as a fireplace accident, though it is clear the wound has many layers of old scar tissue and neglect.
*Keeps notes and records of her lost mentor which shocked and tramatized the woman severely. Jancis knows the man had a tragic ending (though in reality he was tested on victims and the like which has eluded the conjurer's knowledge and leads her astray in comforting the woman.)

*Try to mend the wounds between the lady and her love with neglect and selfishness.
:*After asking Sigurd about his lack of attention to her and how busy the woman is, the man confessed he is self-focused and his offers have gone unanswered. Jancis has confronted Reinette about this clash, getting an answer from the lady that she is unsure how she feels and has kept her distance.

After being successful and fight broke out and Jancis conjured a large boulder upon the man which ended up causing fatal damage. Surprised at the outcome of not disabling the man, Jancis still feels remorse for the encounter, but heartened that Reinette was not forced into the situation more.
*Prayer leader for pilgrimages to [[Lore:The Twelve|the Twelves' stones]] including Nald'thal and Nophica.
*Assisted with dealing with [[Memeli Meli]]'s aether condition, which had bad timing with the First Mate's death and instilled fear that the curse passed on to the lalafell.

♦ '''[[Sigurd Rainecourt]]''' - Thaumaturge of the Coral Sea, Jancis views the man with regard for his intelligence and natural ability to reason with just about anyone. She holds more empathy and compassion for the man after being used as a scapegoat for Lady Dhemgeim's death on top of the mysterious tragic past the man has only mentioned before. Jancis listens to him for his eloquence and ability to haggle/barter any deal as well as his abilities to coerce others. "Master Sigurd" "Sigurd"<spoiler>

*Gets seasick easily, even on simple ferries or calm waters.
*Has a pet coblyn named Cookie, which is very protective of his territory, Sigurd's room.
'''Current Goals'''
*Confront the man on his treatment of Lady Reinette. During induction, Jancis had a chance to speak with Sigurd, encouraging him to not let Reinette be too busy for his company. Asking about it again, he has tried to send the lady cards and gifts of fruit and offers to spend time with her to no reply. Jancis asks Reinette about her quiet behavior, encouraging the woman to at least tell him she needs time.
*Support him after being alienated and despised by the majority of the company.

:*Studied a small section of the temple ruins in the deserts of Thalanan, Qarn, which turned into an escape for survival after falling into a pit and Reginald's growing aether sickness. With the help of Tausenadel everyone came out mostly unscathed.
:*A wall falling on the mysterious tower by Bronze Lake, dubbed the Wanderer's Palace, the group runs across a siege by saragin on a small group of tonberries which somewhat disrupts the groups' goal to find Chachanji's lost brother.
*Got to assist searching for the mysterious Maelstrom officer Derrick Drake which led the two, along with Tausen and Monty, on a whilwind chase that ran into a crazy highlander with a trust in manly muscles. Surprisingly, Sigurd was no slouch and was forced to flex to earn enough reputation to continue the search.
*During the terrible ordeal of trying to find a cure for Lady Dhemgeim's condition, a spell is used in quick timing which fails, taking the woman's life. Blamed for the death, Sigurd is put on trial for disobeying a direct order. Viewing everyone's pain and anger being directed at the mage as a means to making him a scapegoat for the numerous complications, Jancis defends the man bringing up the moral obligation he had to at least attempt to save the dying First Mate.

♦ '''[[Staelufre Lysmerl]]''' - The wild lady and namesake of the Coral Sea's home. Over time Jancis has grown grateful and closer to the Staelufre after the ordeals her lover and the advice they have given one another.

</spoiler>
♠ '''[[Tasa Rhyzul]]''' - The hardened warrior with a subtle softer side, Jancis met Tasa while preparing with the company to save their leader. Despite Tasa's brash demeanor, she is a wise woman with a lot of heart and patience for the less experienced and has earned quite a bit of Jancis' respect. She is technically the warrior's indentured servant as she pays back a debt and is bidden to comply with any requests Tasa makes, though the lady does not enforce it. Believed dead.<spoiler>
[[File:Tasapic.png|200px|right]]
'''Past Events'''
*Meeting the warrior, Tasa becomes a love and confident of Cici, and Jancis comes along on different training and rituals between the two including sparring with Sir Filangieri, soaking at the hot springs, and drinking endeavors.
*Looking to relieve Alveo of all the debt he has accrued, Tasa agrees to repay the majority of it from her vast amount of wealth. Jancis feels a need to repay Lady Tasa for her generosity and kindness. Convinced the warrior isn't actually pushing for reimbursement, she looks for other ways to be loyal and giving.
:*After Lady Tasa effectively "proposed" to Jancis, the conjurer feels that she's not obligated to help the warrior out of a gil contract and more to be kind in general. Also, Jancis encouraged her to talk to Cici about their relationship. Tasa took her up on the advice, effectively moving from romantic attraction to more platonic.
</spoiler>
♥ '''[[Tausenadel Geispyrsyn]]''' - Sailor in Coral Sea with a jovial soul and a knack for cooking, Jancis revers the man for his manly expression of compassion and his ways of dealing with bad situations under pressure. One of the leaders Jancis will take seriously. Considering all that has happened, Jancis tries to do whatever will make him comfortable, but is fairly sure his heart and spirit went to sea with his dead wife. "Tausen"<spoiler>
[[File:Tau-Wiki-Ava.jpg|200px|right]]

*Loves animals and has a whole zoo of them living in his room. Has a particular fondness for cactuar.
*Father was a servant in Ishgard, but was swept away to a life at sea at a very young age.
'''Current Goals'''

*Living together in the Coral house, Jancis has been fed and even cared for after a slavery ruse gone wrong, staying on Tausen's cot for the night after killing a man for attempting to touch Lady Reinette.
*Worked with Tausen along with fellow company members Naga and Guil. The most reliable of the party, they find out that Hnaba has been misleading them the entire time and in a grueling fight barely make it out with L'aenoh still alive.
:*Later on when Hnaba is brought by force to the Coral house, despite Jancis' protests, the conjurer is injured trying to give the wicked woman peace. Tausen follows Jancis to her room and tries to console her while also rebute the old miqo'te's nonsense rambling with the problem of bringing trouble to the company's own walls.
*With cunning knowledge, Tausen is one of the few to figure out Memeli's clues to recovering all the food in the Coral pantry from her hijinks. With the reward of a kiss, Dhemgeim, Tausenadel, and Jancis all succumb to Memeli's 'pink tempering'. He's one of the first to recover from the lalafel's whims.
*Attended the wedding of Dhemgeim and Tausenadel, which filled the entire Sanctum of the Twelve and celebrations lasted long into the night.
*Mocked in a story written by Chaska, Jancis looks to get an apology for Tausenaden for being a victim in the obvious attack on herself. Finding out that Jancis has made a terrible mistake and Chaska has no idea about the story itself. She still does not know who tried to humiliate Tausen.
*Attended a Turnsday celebration that Tausen was at, helping the man leave when a drunk lady was starting to hang off the man.[[http://i.imgur.com/BEq3OhL.jpg Scene]]
*After Lady Dhemgeim's death, she tried to help the man recover by failed and has doubts the man will return from his sojourn to the north truly, only visiting now and then instead. [[http://i.imgur.com/uhUmnCa.jpg Scene]]
:*Despite her certainy, Tausen returned and is once again running about the house and the desert Gold Saucer, helping tend to chocobos and putting all of his time and effort into assisting animals.

♦ '''[[Tiergan Vashir]]''' - Fighter of Coral Sea. Answered call for help in Lower La Noscea and followed under to find tempered during the Siren crisis. "Sir Vashir"<spoiler>
[[File:DA_tier.jpg|200px|right]]
'''Notes'''
*Close to J'azhar
'''Current Goals'''
*''Dance of the Red Lotus'': Jancis receives a curious red stone at a Valentoine present from an curious group. Little did she know it was for a vile purpose with Sir Vashir's life hanging in the balance.
:*A small crimson gemstone, flat and about the size of Jancis' palm, arrives in the mail. The symbol of a Crane is somehow carved within it. Attached is a letter written on fresh parchment in clear neat script: ''Dearest friend, In the spirit of the newest holiday, we are distributing blessings of prosperity to all. Please accept this gemstone and think of it as a token of good fortune. -- Sisters of the Red Lotus --''
::*The aether within the gem is very subtle. It almost seems to trace along her own with feather-light touches, but doesn't take or steal energy. It is not entirely innocuous however. Ethereal strands of aether from countless outside sources in all directions funnel towards the red gem. They all trace along your own, almost like an exploratory caress, before moving like a river to some distant location. The gem is using Jancis as a focus. And while it does not absorb her aether - it is certainly using some aspect of it for some unknown purpose.
:*Telling Lady Leanne about the curious stone she received, Leanne is surprised and ends up having one of her own, the Harp. She warns Jancis about the subtle convincing voices that come from the stone and how she cannot bear to leave it.
:*Following up on this with Tiergan later on, she finds out more from Staelufre on the docks of the Mist, and agrees to help close the lotus that is slowly draining the man's aether away.
:*Sharing with Living Ember because of a cake wish the lady made, the two agree to practice testing Jancis' ability to follow the aether trails to find more of the people involved with the lotus to close the petals.

*Visiting one another in the Mist to return something of Aya's, the two have time to catch up with one another where Jancis awkwardly asks for advice concerning tails and fighting.
*Date Auction before Starlight. Seeing Val up on stage to be pawned off to anyone, Jancis takes on debt to win. She brushes off his offer to pay her back.

♠ '''[[Z'enath Vashyr]]''' - A Free Paladin of Ul'dah and accomplished swordsman. Has a smile that always catches her off-guard. Jancis would ask for his help and wrote him often; struggling with the amount of attention and reverence he gave her. Coming to care and love the man deeply, she will often look sad and longing at random times after being reminded of his absence. Believed in hiding and incognito to find assassins linked to his past or killed by them. His loss resulted in Jancis dealing with a long recovery and lack of desire in many respects.

*''His Name Was Z'enath'': Remembered from her past, Jancis is reunited the who takes her life into a new path and whose departure leaves her waiting.
:*While travelling back to Gridania, Jancis was confronted by a swordsman with red eyes. His eagerness to speak to her and find out who she was after a simple "hello" blossomed into reuniting with one of the first people Jancis assisted after her isolation in the Shroud. Z'enath nearly lost his eye in preventing a drunken scuffle between two other Wood Wailers that she was able to heal and restore in time. Continuing their correspondence, the two piece together their memories and trade shows of gratitude to one another.
:*After meeting, Jancis offers to assist Z'enath in a job he took on from a group of ruffian bandits that were laying waste to small hovels. Though she acts as little more than bait to the bandits, she catches a glimpse of the paladin's abilities and control over conjuration aether. The two rest in Quarrymill overnight as Wood Wailers handle the mess the bandits left behind. Returning to Gridania, Jancis proves she still knows how to climb a tree by... climbing a tree.

Z'enath reveals a bit more of his past that brings him obvious shame, as well as some words that "upon the Horizon" some change might come. Jancis offers to assist in this change.
:*Out running errands in the Shroud, Z'enath confesses to her that he has a task to accomplish alone and that he might not return. Jancis waits the days he claims to be gone realizing a deep worry and concern for the man. Missing him fervently, she continues to check in with the Flames if he has contacted them. Considering the ordeal she had with her lost love, she is coming to realize how intense her concern and care for the knight is.
::*Couple days after the masquerade party, Jancis finds Z'enath waiting for her on the docks of the Mist. Overwhelmed with relief and happiness that he has returned, she embraces him and asks to know more of his past to understand why he's made a choice of being alone and, hopefully, move on from such a lifestyle.
::*Asked to a dinner where they can talk, the knight explains a bit more of his childhood activities and his foster father, "his caretaker", and also find out more about his interests and changes of heart, overcome by his admittance to the "fascination" he has found in the conjurer. [[http://i.imgur.com/aZW8fO4.jpg Scene]]
::*Returning to Limsa, Jancis is invited to an abandoned house that is now endowed to Z'enath.

Admitting that he waited too long, he also asks to escort Jancis to the Ball which she immediately accepts understanding his reasoning and courtship proposal. [[http://i.imgur.com/9HvTI29.jpg Scene]] [[http://i.imgur.com/Bp74ne9.jpg Sketch by Melody]]
:*Continuing to add to his home, Jancis tries to support his own personal goals. She learns that his foster father was slain by an assassin, a dark group known for their ruby earring that Z'enath escaped working for himself.
:*During the Nophica pilgrimage, Z'enath is delayed as he finds some people associated from the assassin group he's hunting. Sporting a black eye, he makes it there and hides it under his hair, the two suspects getting away.
:*Learning more about these assassins Z'enath was mixed up with, Jancis turns at the Seeker Keeper eclipse celebration to find him missing. Not seeing him since, she believes he has either been taken or killed.

:*Randomly running into Cici speaking with Sir Evans, the gladiator asks Jancis to help him pick out some clothing for the upcoming Starlight Ball. After many bells and watching the man put on a random assortment of clothes the two manage to find something deemed appropriate for the gala. The entire time, Jancis finds the man a big awe-inspiring for having a freedom from such cultural boundaries but accepting of them at the same time, listening to his stories of his large family and their Feastday practices, and the reason for all this work is to give an unknown woman at the time the night of her life before he leaves. [[http://i.imgur.com/HemTowO.jpg Scene]]
::*A distress call goes out on the Red Wings' linkpearl and Zachary bolts off, beckoning Jancis to follow in his finery, to find [[Erik Mynhier]] cursed by a mysterious time magic returning the older paladin to his youthful mind and appearance. At this time, to prove himself, Erik tells a secret truth that the woman Zachary is working so hard for is [[Siha Xinkei]] "You're in love with my sister Siha." [[http://i.imgur.com/Mrou6rU.jpg Scene]]
::*On other visits to Cici, Jancis continues to run into Zachary getting help from the lady knight, including dance lessons and an exclamation to spar with her to prove his worth.
::*After listening, Zachary explains he has had dreams of the missing warriors from the Calamity and believes he can find them in the void. This only worries and upsets Jancis, especially since he has so much family that a gamble of himself is too high of a stake, but her concerns are quelled by the man's resolve. [[http://i.imgur.com/CLjOFpD.jpg Scene]]
:*The night of the Starlight Ball arrives, only to find that Siha is escorted by another man for the night. Giving some words of encouragement, Jancis manages to persuade Zachary to at least dance with the lady of his affection and be honest with her.
::*Despite other fine garments available for the occasion made available a shops closer to the ball than before, the gladiator still wears the items Jancis purchased before much to her surprise.
::*Later in the evening, Zachary gives Jancis a rest from hosting and they friends dance together. The conjurer fails in an opportunity to help the man have the dance he actually sought, even preparing to sing a song in particular for the occasion.

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Background''</div>==
[[File:QIvPuyu.jpg|225px|right]]
Jancis Milburga was born as Lleuedwyn Fishcot, daughter of a middle-class merchant family. The Fishcots were known for their ability to export fish and were a successful travelling merchants. Misfortune came upon them on a trade route in the northern part of the Twelveswood; their caravan was overrun by scouting soldiers looking for monks from Ala Mhigo.

The Rest of the family murdered in the heretic hunt, the toddler Lleuedwyn was left to die in the woods. The soldiers had not been far off, refugees from Ala Mhigo as supporters of the monks escaped before persecution had been near the caravan. Coming to salvage what was left, they found Lleuedwyn and kept her as an asset to survive. Hiding out in the dawn of war, they found a secluded cavern deep in the Shroud protected by the Elements and the Woodswrath because they were caring for a child of the woods.

The highlanders were known as "Guardian" and "Shaman Milburga". Lleuedwyn was referred to strictly as "Child" and taught basics of survival, given books, and even taken into close villages with a mask and large clothing. She was mostly secluded from interacting with others and learned most of what she knew in the world from books or overhearing her two "protectors". As she grew into adolescence Shaman Milburga began to teach the child how to feel and understand the elements; partly to continue their protected place in the woods but also as a means for the girl to take care of herself later on in life.

From one of the many books Jancis picked out her own name and became more restless with the lack of interaction that she had so often read about. Over time she became more aware of her situation, the fate of her parents, and a limited recollection that she was an orphan. She became more adventurous and gathered items from her 'secret outings'. Caught on several outings, Guardian decided their time was up in the seclusion and the war had left more refugees around Gridania.

Giving her some supplies, Jancis was left out on the road with instructions to find the city and appeal to the generosity of the Conjurer's Guild. For about five years she worked for room and board while studying the art of conjuring and is now at the point to explore the world and build her future.<br>

Jaques: /* PC Rumors */

''"Conjurers are not the only ones capable of granting succor. Who remains behind once that healer realizes nothing more can be done, and the deathly ill or wounded are left to their fate? No, a part of my task is to sing those ailing souls to their rest and grant them peace enough to let go of their worldly fetters. 'Tis the least I can do when others turn away."'' ~ Ciel Wulfe

{| width="100%"
|-
| colspan="8" style="vertical-align:top" |

=History=

Having been born and raised in Gridania, Ciel has a deeply ingrained appreciation for the Twelveswood and Her many wild inhabitants. Her parents frequently encouraged her to pursue the path of a Conjurer due to a knack for hearing the occasional whisper from the wood, but she never felt it would be her true calling.

Early on, she discovered a love for the bow and often stole into the Quiver's Hold to watch the archers practice. She would also sometimes "borrow" a bow to practice, only to snap herself with the string time and again. Spindly arms aren't great for shooting effectively, but time and persistence saw her growing in strength and skill, and the accidental self-flagilations became less of a problem.

Likewise, despite her parents discouraging her from talking to adventurers from abroad, Ciel often found herself enthralled with their stories when they passed through Gridania. Tales of courage, romance, monster-slaying -- and so many of those were embellished for the sake of entertainment value , but she didn't care. It set a spark of interest within her for a taste of the outside world.

Her own adventures, when she became old enough, led her all over Eorzea with a variety of people. Some became dear to her, as siblings she never had. She had always been fed on the belief that outsiders weren't worth the time, that the people of the other nations were selfish and insular when, in truth and with time, she looked back on her own kind and saw these same flaws. Seeing the world with her own eyes meant learning many more truths, and she came to settle in Ul'dah with her comrades. She still longed for the Twelveswood, but not for the city of her birth.

Ciel eventually followed the same calling as her comrades, but rather than returning to Gridania to join the Twin Adders, she consigned herself to the Immortal Flames. This not only paid well for a while, but it kept her busy. Some of the missions she was sent on, however, became more and more troubling and she soon found herself at Carteneau. Even arriving there was a grim matter, but regret never truly set in until she got into the thick of the fray and watched her companions fall - often messily - one by one.

The coming of Bahamut, and then becoming engulfed in a brilliant white light... these were the last things she experienced before finding herself suddenly in one of the cities again. She felt like she had been asleep for a long time, and had awoken with a mind rattled by hazy nightmares.

(For more history, see the story post The Long Road Home)

=Personality=

Ciel is, by and large, a gentle woman in spite of her experiences before and since the Calamity. Having been raised by loving parents, with open eyes and an open mind, she lacks the haughty, self-important bearing witnessed in some of her brethren, and she is usually open to meeting and befriending people from all races and walks of life. Diversity is life, itself, and everyone has a place in it.

Her willingness to associate with others, however, belies an underlying feeling of distrust toward people she hardly knows. This is something which has only begun developing over recent months, and which takes a great deal of effort to get around. Although she tries her best to understand others and their motives, if she believes she has been deceived, it can be extremely difficult to win back her trust. Her insecurity about letting others in can be cause for confusion on her own part and lead to closing herself off emotionally, which only compounds what might as well be a self-imposed loneliness.

Regardless of her personal reservations, she will often go out of her way to help others where and when it is needed, and being a part of the Sword and Rose Order has gone a long way to enable this. As such, she has no tolerance for injustice or for those who would abuse the weak, and those who do will find this normally calm woman's temper.

__NOTOC__

==Family==

*'''Father: Josseloux Sauveterre''' - A talented lancer and instructor with the Wood Wailers. While he had retired from active duty ten summers prior to the Calamity, he felt obligated to aid in the defense of Gridania against Imperial incursion. He lost his life in battle.

*'''Mother: Pienne Sauveterre''' - The one from whom Ciel inherited her gentleness. As a Conjurer, she was the first to encourage Ciel to enroll with Stillglade Fane. Distraught over the loss of Josseloux, and believing her daughter lost at Carteneau, Pienne fled deep into the Twelveswood and took her own life.

==The Wulfegard==

Wulfegard was the name of the Flames unit she was assigned to prior to and during the Battle of Carteneau. Aside from herself, all other members of the unit were presumed to have been wiped out during the battle and/or Bahamut's attack. Characters marked as Presumed Deceased can be taken up by anyone willing to play them. This list is under construction.

*'''Morithan Wulfegard''' (PC) - Commander of the unit and the the one responsible for giving it its name. A Hyur Highlander of advanced age, an honorable "knight" if there ever was one. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

*'''Chavi Banzai''' (Presumed Deceased) - A Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te, U'Chavi Tia, known to the Pugilist's guild as Chavi Banzai, the Screaming Fist. Quick to laugh, and even quicker with his fists as well as his feet. He became known for flying off the top rope of fighting rings, running up walls, and doing backflips.

*[[Aerostein Epitaph]] - Ciel considers Aero a good friend and is grateful for his assistance with setting one of her ghosts to rest. She would do anything in her power to help him if he needed it.

*[[Jaques Guillaume]] - Vaughn's other half, though she doesn't know him quite as well. He's gruff and serious, but his intentions are just.

*'''Jonathan Grayve''' - A Duskwight and former knight with a knack for invention. Although it took some time before she had enough of an understanding of who he was to fully invest her trust in him, the two have become inseparable and begun discussing possibilities for the future.

*[[Kaine Merloup]] - The charming Captain of the Raven's Claw. Counted among her most trusted friends, if Kaine ever needed her help with anything he would have only to ask.

*[[Kale Aideron]] - Kale and Ciel have often clashed due to misunderstanding, but circumstances have left her a great deal of respect for the Hyur. When the chips are down, he will make the tough decisions for everyone's sake. She would trust the man with her life.

*[[Oni De'phor]] and '''Raiden''' - A young Hyur and his unlikely, and often unseen, companion. Hopefully he and Raiden are staying out of trouble, and Raiden is leaving enough cake for everyone.

*[[Vaughn Antain]] - As beautiful as he is talented, Vaughn is a dear friend. His concern for the lives of others sometimes caused their paths to cross, and now Oschon has led Ciel to Vaughn's door that they might work together more closely.

*[[Yvelont Navarre]] - She met this gentleman following a brief, rained-out performance in Gridania one day and instantly found him familiar, but she could not place why. Bits and pieces of scattered memory clarified that familiarity amidst recurring dreams of Carteneau. As a Conjurer, his was the last life she tried to save. He is a trusted friend.

==Common Rumors==

*"Elezen lass? Eyes like emeralds, hair as white as mountain rime? Aye, I've seen 'er. They say she's got a heavenly voice, but I've yet to hear it for m'self."

*"Aw, she's a sweetheart. Might be in her best interest, anyroad, if she did more to secure that shirt o' hers, lest she draw attention she's not wanting, if you know what I mean." -Wymond

==Moderate Rumors==

*"I've... I've heard she rides a coeurl. How does anyone tame such a beast to be ridden like a chocobo??"

*"She was singing at the Quicksand one evening and I offered her a cactus flower as a tip for one of her songs. I don't know what it was, but she seemed... not ''ungrateful'', but kind of sad for it. You'd think I put a dead sparrow in her hat or something, for as reluctant as she was to take it." -- random Tia botanist

==Rare Rumors==
*"Used to be a Conjurer, that one. She left out of Gridania about a year or two before the Calamity, then disappeared for five..."

*"I heard this beautiful voice one night while I was on patrol in the Wood. Couldn't find the source at first, but there she was sitting beside the waterfall, bearing her soul to the night. I'm afraid I startled her... could've been an Ixal for all she knew. She dashed for cover when she heard me coming." -- A young Wood Wailer

*"That one is an angel of death. She arrived amidst a rain storm, not long after grandpere fell ill. Mayhap it was a mistake inviting her inside to dry off and rest the night. She asked to play her harp for grandpere, as payment for the hospitality. ...He passed on by sunrise, albeit peacefully. The lass left before anyone else awoke, and with nary a sound..." -- Nervous refugee

*"Strange coincidence, but she reminded me of someone else who enlisted with the flames some seven summers ago. Same first name, but different family name... couldn't possibly be the same person." -- Immortal Flames recordkeeper

*"She's in the Quicksand often enough. It looked like a fight was brewing - yet again - a couple suns ago, and she shouted twice to try and get people to take it outside. Imagine my surprise later when some of the patrons who had been sitting right by her came up to the counter with cracked wine glasses! No other table saw this happen with theirs..." -- Momodi

== PC Rumors ==

((Feel free to add!))

*'''The songstress? I don't know what she's looking for, but I hope she finds it.''' -A grim guardian

*"A bard, aye, she is that. If that woman is just a poet, though, then I'm the bloody emperor of all Eorzea. That woman is in possession of a keen philosopher's mind and callouses on her fingers from strings far more taut than a harp. I imagine many a man who disregarded her as a songstress has wound up with a look of surprise being the last expression he ever wore." - Corbeaux Baptiste

*''"Miss Ciel? Yeah, I know her. She's so pretty and graceful. Also to note she has a great taste in style. I'm dieing to hear her sing too, she's really talented I hear."'' - [[Aerostein Epitaph]]

*"Have you not heard her songs of virtue? Her voice brings light to the darkest dungeon. I should know, I've seen her crescendo physically tear monsters apart." - [[Dresden Voltaire]]

*"Truly.. Miss Ciel.. I.. don't think I've met anyone like her! She sits by her harp so.. elegant, her voice gentle, her singing soothing, and never fazed by so many surrounding her! I was.. very much startled when I once saw her... pet, though. ..Eh? 'What pet?!' N-No! It's nothing!" - [[Mylene Wharf]]
*"Ciel? She's awesome, that's all I'm gonna say. She's skilled with a bow from what I hear, and she's hell'uve attractive. She's also a pretty promising songstress." [[Oscare Iono]]

*"Lady Ciel is perfect. She is my idol." - [[Clara Kleefeld]]

*"Ah, she's just...nice, yeah. I...Twelves, I 'ave more to say, if I bloody knew 'ow to word it..." - [[Kale Aideron]]

*"Ciel Wulfe. It is two names. 'Ciel' is friend and family. She is smaller and quiet. 'Wulf' is my mommy. She is strong and love. Ciel Wulfe is not these people. She is 'Songstress.' She is magic. She is mystery. Not find her with Ciel and Wulf before. Very suspicious. She has secret." - [[Flickering Ember]]

*"Quick, efficient, and doesn't bat an eye that I'm Duskwight. Is even married to one. What's not to like?" - [[Jaques Guillaume]]

*"Ah, lady Ciel! She's sung some very lovely songs at the pilgrimages. She seems to collect very odd men though. Like mister Kage." - [[Ojune Wajune]]

=IC Quotes and Trivia=

==IC Quotes==

'''Llaine Tetheros''' - "You're very concerned about the bat getting in between your breasts, aren't you?"

'''Ciel''' - "If I wanted anything crawling in between them, Miss, I would date more often."

---------------

'''On the subject of love:''' "'Tis a potent drogue, to be sure. Once had, one wonders how they ever did without it. And then the withdrawal pains once 'tis gone... which leave one wondering why they ever thought it was a good idea to begin with."

==Trivia==

*She does not discuss Thierremont. (see The Long Road Home, linked in the Writings section)

*Her hair used to be much longer, but she cut it back to her shoulders right before leaving Gridania after Thierremont's death. Some cultures hold that the cutting of one's hair symbolizes grief, but also a rite of passage or letting go of something in one's past.

*She named her coeurl mount Mille Feuilles. Not only is it the name of her favorite Gridanian dessert, but it also means "Thousand Leaves" or "Many Layers". She thought of the name after she noticed the way the ridges on the couerl's neck and limbs looks like overlapping layers, or leaves.

*She is a mezzo-soprano.

*Ciel is a very pious person and can often be found in places known to be sacred to the Twelve. She will sometimes collect small tokens as offerings for when she goes to these places, leaving them at whatever might pass for an altar, for each has their place in the grand scheme of things and should be paid their due respects. Among her favorite things to collect are nuts, seeds, and fresh plant cuttings - anything she can cultivate and offer to Nophica, the Matron - and she will happily accept these things in lieu of gil or other tokens of wealth when she sings in public.

*Yep, Ciel's current last name is not lore-centric. Her family name is actually Sauveterre, which translates similarly to "safe haven". She took the last name Wulfe as her way of honoring the first Company she went with to Carteneau, the Wulfegard. To the best of her knowledge, all other members of the Company died that day.

*Ciel still carries the bow she earned when she actively served among the Immortal Flames, and of course she's given it an appropriate name: Star-crossed Serenade.

== <div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#698dc9; font-size:20px; color:#FFFFFF">'''Character'''</div> ==
Ameline Valtin - a name that few people know. Still young in her mid to late 20's, this fresh-faced nomad has made a habit of staying away from nation-state politics and unquestioningly following her whimsical intuition. Light-hearted and worldly, she
tends to barter her services for goods or other services rather than dealing in gil. Despite her
proclivity for the wilder lands, she is the epitome of statuesque Elezen stoicism.

Between her well-spoken manner and her adamant refusal to get involved with City-State squabbles, it is clear that Ameline has seen
some form of experience in public administration or a military. Despite this, she remains cagey about
her young-adult life; often times, she finds it easier to deflect such questions and offer elaborately tall tales on her origins.

===Religious Views===
Ameline is a pious devotee to [[The Twelve]]. Her views on love and happiness
naturally gravitate her toward the [[Menphina, the Lover|Goddess of Love]]. Ironically, she is a
solitary creature. Inbetween her posturing on the virtues of being self-reliant, it can
be observed that she worries for the frailty of the relationships she has established. Despite her rugged lifestyle, she has a
delicate heart that is easily broken - a trait that causes her to unintentionally keep friends and
associates from getting too close.

In addition to her specific reverence to [[Menphina, the Lover|Menphina]], her wandering nature tends to leave her in reverence of the great open road and its patron god, [[Oschon, the Wanderer|Oschon]], watcher of vagrants and wanderers. Among the remaining ten gods and goddesses, Ameline reveres [[Halone, the Fury|Halone]] as a strong, feminine figure to be idolized.
<span style="font-size:14px"><font color="#2C3539" face="Arial"><span style="line-height: 16px">

=== Personality ===
* For a time of strife, Ameline is a relatively pleasant person. She has a warm personality and believes strongly in sharing what little she has with people who need it. As she is something of a vagrant, she is not particularly motivated by gil; she does it because she genuinely enjoys the brief company of new people. Because of this, it is not uncommon for her to offer her services to people gratis or in exchange for some small favor or service. ''(Example: She agrees to escort a physician through the shroud in exchange for a quick look into a pain she's been having in her elbow.)''

* Ameline is very seldom abrasive or crass. She internalizes disrespectful comments and maintains a level of respectful decorum when speaking to others. If she is treated with respect, she will usually sincerely enjoy the company of others. If she is not, she will do what she can to excuse herself from the situation. If that is not an option, she will simply clam up and have very little to say. In this state, it is common for her to avoid making eye contact with her conversational partner.

* She has a way of seeming very genuine when she talks. Her big green eyes zero in on the eyes of the person she's talking to making a conversation with her a generally pleasant experience. She tends to prefer listening to talking, but will not shy away from storytelling. She most certainly gets more enjoyment out of her typically dour tales than her audiences.

* Old rivalries, bigotry, and xenophobia may be in her blood as an Elezen - but she has been on both sides of this and does not like the way it feels. Because of this, abrasive comments based on citizenship, race, religion, etc. can get her a bit worked up. With that said, Ameline can be accused of hypocrisy. The scant population of Elezen tends to have her gravitate toward her kin that she randomly comes across. If she were to see a Hyur and an Elezen traveling on separate paths of a road, she would dash to the Elezen first.

* The wilds can be a lonely place and Ameline is not immune to this fact. She is willing to converse with just about anyone and absolutely adores being approached in public to make small-talk. She enjoys hearing tall tales; travelers with implausibly grandiose stories from far away lands light up her eyes. In discussing the lonely road, it should also be noted that Ameline can be easily taken in by whimsical plans. ''(Example: If someone tells Ameline, "You really ought to see the palace sometime." She takes that quite literally as an invitation to join her conversation partner and may ask for him/her to take her there.)''

* Her devotion to [[Menphina, the Lover|the goddess of love]] lends an appreciation for romance and love. While she may get caught up in fancies of romance, she is quite fastidious about who she chooses for courtship.
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px"><font color="#2C3539" face="Arial"><span style="line-height: 16px">

<div>

===Physical Appearance===
* While generally comely for a Wildwood Elezen, she is exceptionally tall. It is not uncommon for her above-average height to be one of the first topics of conversation with new folks. Standing at almost 7 fulms, she towers over Hyur and has a good head taller than many other Elezen females.
* Although she has gentle features, it is clear that there is a base-line power to the way she moves. While she has a lithe look about her, close inspection would show you that there is strength in her long, seemingly slender limbs. To see her negotiating difficult terrain, hunting wild game, and various other physically-oriented activities that she participates in would easily demonstrate this strength to an observer.
* Ameline is not the most glamorous, busty, or well-dressed Elezen woman - but there is a rustic intrigue to the way she presents herself. Her countenance has a perpetual expression of interest and vitality that seems to convey a sense of approachability to the passerby. Despite her free-roaming lifestyle, she seems to have a sense of manners and decorum. It would be reasonable to assume that she has been classically educated after meeting her (despite the fact that this may or may not be the case.)
* Despite her attractive proportions and rustic charm, there's no getting around it: Ameline is clumsy and uncoordinated. It is quite common for her long slender arms to collide with a bowl or tankard on a table as she passes it by. Because of this, she seems to be a bit self-conscious in formal functions.
* She has a very small yet distinguishing birthmark below her right eye.

===Commonly-Worn Attire/Accessories/Equipment===
* Almost always wears a bandana, beret, or other form of hat over her usually long, dark-brown hair.
* Carries a small notebook and a very old ornate rose-gold charcoal case for chronicling her travels, making rubbings, and drawing vistas that inspire her as she moves from place to place. It can always be found on her person if searched for.
* Conceals a small (3 ilm) dagger that fits in her boot for personal protection. It is typically not visible without a pat-down or the removal of her boots. Unlike her jewelry, the dagger seems keen and newly forged. Perhaps something happened recently to give her cause to conceal a weapon?

===Scars===
* Three dagger-sized crosshatched stab wound scars line her right shoulder, specifically located on the back side of her shoulder half way between her neck and arm. The scars do not seem to have been tended to professionally; instead sutured crudely by an amateur. She tends to favor her shoulder, indicating that the internal damage still brings her discomfort.
* A coin-sized scar is apparent right above her right clavicle. A close observer may come to the conclusion that it is the result of an arrow wound. It seems to have faded through time, but is still easily spotted when her neck/upper chest is exposed.
* The faint marking of a large beast's sharp bite dots her abdomen. The small toothy scars seem very old and faded and are only apparent upon close inspection.

<span style="font-size:14px"><font color="#2C3539" face="Arial"><span style="line-height: 16px">
<div>
<span style="font-size:14px"><font color="#2C3539" face="Arial"><span style="line-height: 16px">

==<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#698dc9; font-size:20px; color:#FFF">'''Combat'''</div> ==
Ameline has a very utilitarian concept of combat. While she shows some signs of being professionally
trained, she relies heavily on traps and cunning. Her solid and lengthy build gives her a natural tendency to
face adversaries or game for hunt using the spear/lance or bow. When engaging another person in
combat, she tends to aim for disabling attacks as opposed to mortal wounding attacks. Her general style
is one of patient precision than wild aggression. She will drop into a defensive stance, attempting to
parry, dodge, and deflect incoming blows until she gets a feel for the combat style of her opponent.
Once she sizes up her foe, she will quickly strike with non-lethal precision until her opponent yields
or makes it clear that a non-lethal conclusion will not be an option.

===Weapons/Equipment Carried===
* Small dagger in her right boot.
* A satchel for carrying provisions (food, water, hunted game).
* A main armament of some kind - usually a very large 10 fulm lance or a finely-crafted bow and quiver.
* Does not typically wear heavy armor; if armor is worn at all, it is likely a snow-white dyed plate for ceremonial purposes.
* Occasionally carries a small, foreign-looking lute-like instrument.

'''''Note:''''' Not all weapons and equipment are carried into a town when Ameline passes through.
Typically, she will make camp on the outskirts of the town and only carry what she needs inside in
order to keep her load light and have plenty of room to bring provisions back to her encampment.

== <div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#698dc9; font-size:20px; color:#FFF">'''Tendencies'''</div> ==
* Quiet and attentive. It isn't bashfulness, she simply enjoys listening to the musings of others.
* Very cagey with her intentions - She will likely deflect direct attempts to suss out her motivations for her behavior.
* When bored or unstimulated, she may make startling and detailed confessions on unpleasant topics to prod for reactions. Whether she is being truthful - only she knows for certain.
* Typically kind and warm. If Ameline is unkind to someone, they are likely excessively rude or crass.
* Will not allow healers to remove her scars. She has a general distrust of healing magicks and practitioners of such.
* Has an observable aversion to public displays of romantic affection toward her. Sweet words or touch are generally met with an awkward silence and excessive blinking.
* Has a tendency to hum a tune as she ponders. She may slip into it mid-conversation. Depending on her mood, the tune may grow louder - but it is always the same tune.
* Seems to be found chewing, smoking, or eating a particularly pungent plant more often than not. When asked about it, she admits freely that it is milkroot and that it "calms her nerves."

'''''Alignment''':'' Chaotic Good.<br />

* A coin-sized scar is apparent right above her right clavicle. A close observer may come to the conclusion that it is the result of an arrow wound. It seems to have faded through time, but is still easily spotted when her neck/upper chest is exposed.
* The faint marking of a large beast's sharp bite dots her abdomen. The small toothy scars seem very old and faded and are only apparent upon close inspection.

==<div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#698dc9; font-size:20px; color:#FFF">'''Combat'''</div> ==
Ameline has a very utilitarian concept of combat. While she shows some signs of being professionally
trained, she relies heavily on traps and cunning. Her solid and lengthy build gives her a natural tendency to
face adversaries or game for hunt using the spear/lance or bow. When engaging another person in
combat, she tends to aim for disabling attacks as opposed to mortal wounding attacks. Her general style
is one of patient precision than wild aggression. She will drop into a defensive stance, attempting to
parry, dodge, and deflect incoming blows until she gets a feel for the combat style of her opponent.
Once she sizes up her foe, she will quickly strike with non-lethal precision until her opponent yields
or makes it clear that a non-lethal conclusion will not be an option.

===Weapons/Equipment Carried===
* Small dagger in her right boot.
* A satchel for carrying provisions (food, water, hunted game).
* A main armament of some kind - usually a very large 10 fulm lance or a finely-crafted bow and quiver.
* Does not typically wear heavy armor; if armor is worn at all, it is likely a snow-white dyed plate for ceremonial purposes.
* Occasionally carries a small, foreign-looking lute-like instrument.

'''''Note:''''' Not all weapons and equipment are carried into a town when Ameline passes through.
Typically, she will make camp on the outskirts of the town and only carry what she needs inside in
order to keep her load light and have plenty of room to bring provisions back to her encampment.

== <div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#698dc9; font-size:20px; color:#FFF">'''Tendencies'''</div> ==
* Quiet and attentive. It isn't bashfulness, she simply enjoys listening to the musings of others.
* Very cagey with her intentions - She will likely deflect direct attempts to suss out her motivations for her behavior.
* When bored or unstimulated, she may make startling and detailed confessions on unpleasant topics to prod for reactions. Whether she is being truthful - only she knows for certain.
* Typically kind and warm. If Ameline is unkind to someone, they are likely excessively rude or crass.
* Will not allow healers to remove her scars. She has a general distrust of healing magicks and practitioners of such.
* Has an observable aversion to public displays of romantic affection toward her. Sweet words or touch are generally met with an awkward silence and excessive blinking.
* Has a tendency to hum a tune as she ponders. She may slip into it mid-conversation. Depending on her mood, the tune may grow louder - but it is always the same tune.
* Seems to be found chewing, smoking, or eating a particularly pungent plant more often than not. When asked about it, she admits freely that it is milkroot and that it "calms her nerves."

[[File:Aya_003.png|300px|right]]
=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px; background:#FFE4E1;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">General</div> ===
This tall, blonde Hyur woman moves gracefully, displaying bright, energetic blue eyes, and warm, happy smile - everyone's favorite bountifully chested barmaid!

=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;background:#FFE4E1;font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;">Appearance</div> ===

Long blonde locks fall freely over the shoulders of this Hyur woman, bearing a somewhat unkempt waviness that threatens at times to become a curl. Bright blue eyes are the highlight of a warm smile framed by typically rose-red lips. She is short and slender for a Highland Hyur, but by the standards of Midlanders would be considered tall, with a curvaceous figure. Finding herself somewhere between fit and athletic, her body is finely honed for dancing, and is only secondarily adapted to the rigors of combat - especially as she is no longer a sellsword by trade.

Aya is usually seen wearing at least light makeup, and is rarely found without lip gloss and eye makeup. She loves jewelry and sports seven piercings on each ear (four upper, and three lower), usually wearing larger earrings on the lower-most piercing, and then matching studs in the remaining (frequently changed to match her outfit, and sometimes her mood). She usually wears necklaces, bracelets, and several rings, as well as navel jewelry that she prefers to have visible whenever possible.

She prefers outfits chosen for form instead of function, frequently wearing heeled shoes and boots, skirts instead of leggings, and armor that give priority to flattering her figure rather than protecting her. When she was a mercenary her commanders were at times able to get her to wear practical armor when preparing for situations where combat was expected, but it was a struggle to convince her to wear proper uniform at other times.

=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;background:#FFE4E1;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">Disposition</div> ===

Aya typically wears her personality on her sleeve. She is outgoing, social, with a clear orientation toward fun and pleasure. She has a significant caring and soft-hearted streak, that sometimes conflicts with her better sense, and often speaks before she thinks(sometimes leading to unexpected shyness). She generally prefers to avoid hard work, has expensive tastes for comfort and baubles, and will almost always take the easiest route to Gil when offered. Nonetheless, she has become significantly more responsible since fleeing Ishgard and encountering the difficulties of the real world shorn from the protective layer of her family, and can usually be counted on if it really matters.

Preferring shopping, relaxing, and most especially partying to hard work, these tendencies will almost always become obvious to even the most ambivalent observer.

[[File:Aya_portrait.png|left|thumb|Aya as a Barmaid in Ul'dah]]

[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=7871 Some stories from Aya's background]

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">Ala Mhigan Refugee</div> ====
Born the youngest of three children into an upper class Ala Mhigan family steeped in a long warrior tradition, Aya was born into what should have been a life of relative luxury. All hope of such fortune was washed away among the flood of refugees fleeing the Kingdom ahead of the Imperial conquest. Living as refugees the family moved from city to city in a vain effort to call in old favors to find permanent settlement. After being turned away from every hope, including an extended stay near Limsa Lominsa, Aya's father finally made the decision he had been so loath to consider in the past: to call upon distant relatives who had settled as sellswords in Ishgard several generations in the past, the black sheep of the once prominent and proper family.

Unaware of their fortune to gain entrance to the city shortly before the gates were sealed to the outside world, their long lost relatives welcomed the family with the grudging acceptance of blood relatives. Unable to leave their past behind, Aya's parents adopted only the minimal necessary trappings of Ishgardian society. Refusing to abandon his pretensions her father quickly became a burden, followed by the eldest son intent upon claiming the trappings of an inheritance that had evaporated before his eyes. Loyal to a fault Aya's mother served her husband's every interest, pressing the children to accept his desires and command as they became ever less realistic. The two younger children grew closer to one another, as both proved more capable of adapting to their new social status.

The younger of Aya's brothers chose to become an apprentice weapon smith, planning to open his own shop and provide support for his parents, and if possible to repay the relatives to whom the entire family owes their survival. Aya meanwhile was drawn toward less productive, but equally rebellious endeavors. Despite their poverty, Aya's parents set her on the path to be schooled as a proper Lady befitting her station. Of the arts and manners she studied as a child, her favorite quickly became dancing. As an adolescent she embraced a social circle that skirted the edges of "acceptable" society, preferring the fun, excitement, attention, and notoriety to be found in the world of taverns, and underground clubs. Finding that she could earn gil as a dancer and entertainer Aya completely abandoned her ties to the social circles her parents still clung to in their vaingloriousness.

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">Flight, Gridania, and the Hungry Wolf</div> ====
[[File:Aya_stretch.jpg|left|thumb|Credit: Jack Swift]]
Facing increasing pressure from her parents, and feeling a general alienation toward the accepted culture of Ishgard, Aya made the life-changing decision to escape from the city. Once in the outside world she made her way to Gridania with a purse that rapidly grew bare. She managed to find employment at the Roost as a barmaid, where she was able to rent a room on a long-term basis. With an eye on greater prizes (and a blindness to the risks) she embraced the opportunity to find work as a sellsword with a Free Company she had come to know through work, thus Aya came to the Hungry Wolf.

Although she had mislead the Company on her experience and capability, Aya proved a quick study, albeit it a tentative combatant. Over the course of her several months long employment by the Hungry Wolf, she took part in a small number of actual combat operations, while generally avoiding dangerous assignments. Focused primarily on patrol and sentry work, she finished her time with the Company overseeing patrols that covered the Gridania to Coerthas road, stationed at Fallgourd Float. The work was mild, and she supplemented decreasing pay by entertaining at the local inn. As the company floundered financially, the remaining members were released from their employment.

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">Ul'dah: The Quick Sand</div> ====
Floating about without work, Aya returned to Gridania where she lived at the Roost, trying to make up her mind about what to do next, until expelled for failing to pay for her room. Desperate to find work again, and deciding it better to not further pursue her career as a mercenary, she decided to return to her previous employment, that of a barmaid. Deciding it unlikely that the Roost would turn around and offer her work so soon after the messy issue of her eviction, she opted to try a new city. Intimidated by Limsa's pirate culture, Aya opted to instead test the oppressive heat and culture of Ul'dah.

Momodi, the matron of the Quick Sand, the busiest drinking hole in the city of Ul'dah, and a hub of activity adventurous, legitimate, and illicit, saw potential in the young woman (perhaps believing that the tall blonde from the north might bring in business with her exotic looks) and quickly offered her a position as a barmaid. Along with a pittance of pay, she was provided with a small room (in the least desirable part of the building), board at discount, and the opportunity to keep any tips she would earn.

Aya's primary responsibility is tending to patrons sitting at the Quick Sand's tables, but she also sometimes assists customers at the bar itself, and can pour and mix some drinks to make things easier on Momodi. She's also been quick to help with the Quick Sand's menu, adding a variety of mixed fruit drinks (which she has come to consider something of a specialty), a variety of dishes, and nearly tripling the volume of Gridanian Mead sold with her frequent recommendation of the import.

== <div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#FFC0CB;font-size:18px;color:#000000;"><b>Combat</b></div> ==
<spoiler>
Although she is no longer a sell sword, Aya's training and experience with the Hungry Wolf remains a crucial aspect of who she is. Regardless of her desire to avoid any violent situation, she remains rather better prepared for it than she would admit.

Aya's formal training in military skills has been as a Lancer. Accepting early lessons from the Wood Wailers, and later trained by the Hungry Wolf, she is naturally well-suited to the weapon. Physically fit and athletic she is able to utilize the leverage-advantage of the weapon to a great extent, while maintaining distance from her opponent. Although tentative to enter combat, once engaged she fights with a raw tenacity and viciousness that the Hungry Wolf seek to instill in all of their fighters. She would rather avoid danger if at all possible, but if forced she will kill or be killed. Quick and graceful she relies on rapid and precise movements en lieu of brute force, utilizing surprise and distraction to create opportunities to exploit with the goal of inflicting debilitating injuries. To utilize her impressive leg strength she makes frequent use of kicking and jumping attacks, often in conjunction with the lance to create difficult to defend sequences of strikes. Most experienced soldiers would still consider her an amateur, but one still capable of being a sometimes surprising threat in hand-to-hand combat.

She is familiar with archery, which was one of her childhood hobbies, one which she has rediscovered in the Shroud which prizes skill with the bow and arrow, and offers much to teach the interested amateur.

She has been trained in standard Hungry Wolf military tactics which included basic forestry, and long-range small-group coordination. Stealth, ambush, and surprise-attack training has formed a major portion of her education in tactics. Her recent promotion has made her technically responsible for small squad command within the Company, she has never commanded units in the field and is likely unprepared.</spoiler>

*Modelling
*Barmaiding/Bartending an event (though she would probably rather attend!)

Evangeline Primrose

{{Infobox-character

I am keeping this wiki light, except for rumors.

Impetuous and naïve daughter of an Ishgardian High House, Evangeline lost her inheritance, title, and nearly her life, when she began dabbling in heretical activities. Finding herself exiled, she settled in Ul'dah, where she is gradually finding a place for herself.

===NPC Rumors===

"I saw that crazy Elezen handing out fliers in Pearl Lane. Some nonsense about a revolution. Blades chased her off soon enough." - Merchant

"Miss Primrose holds reading lessons for the children most mornings. Not sure the point, reading is for rich folk anyhow." - Ala Mhigan Refugee

"Strange one that, I see her jogging round the walls some nights in full armor." - Laborer

'''Uncommon'''

"Exiled from the Holy City, that one was. You can tell from the brand on her cheek. Halone only knows her crimes." - Ishgardian Immigrant

'''Rare'''

== Character ==

'''Vaughn Antain''' is a short and willowy Wildwood Elezen, specialized in stealth, archery, and assassination. However, he is not prideful as most of his race is, and is rather content being in the background. His odd behavior has led to many strange reactions, most often being mistrust.

== Combat ==

=== Ranged ===

Vaughn is a marksman of all disciplines. Since he was young, he has shown an affinity to throwing weapons, granting himself a set of silver daggers fashioned with the intricate emblem of the Desert Rose, the brothel in which he was raised. His precision with the thrown weapons was helpful in learning the bow when he was bought by a pirate. He has continued through the years to show a gift for archery, thrown weapons, and pistols.

=== Magic ===

With the aid of a wind crystal, Vaughn is able to manipulate its aether in a way he was unable to before. However, it is visibly taxing on him and often leaves him drained of energy and (sometimes) memory. The crystal itself depletes and tries to collect the nearest source of aether, which is usually Vaughn's own personal aether unless he draws the aether of another wind crystal into him to replenish the one inside.

=== Melee ===

Axes, swords, and fists are not in Vaughn's comfort zone. He has been training rigorously, however, to overcome this weakness. He is especially weary of axes, as is noted by his wincing and hesitations whenever he or another uses the viscous weapon around him.

At first, it was handy having your own personal whore, but then the passion turned to abuse. Vaughn spent much of the plunder he stole from the Captain to pay for healers to undo the intensive scarring left by the lash and leather collar he was hung by as punishment for disobeying orders. Captain von Kanton was Vaughn's first obsessive love, placing him a god among men in his eyes. Though the Captain made him do the most horrific deeds, Vaughn loves him still.

After many years apart, he sought her out to make amends for the deeds he had done while under Captain von Kanton's influence. He was offered a job in the Rose as a teacher for the young soon-to-be companions, but ultimately refused. This led to Sasha demanding he return, or face punishment.

This charismatic hyur seems to be drawing Vaughn in deeper into his web of destruction. Whenever he's with the man, Vaughn becomes a puppet to his every whim. It is that realization Vaughn doesn't trust himself much around him, as his chaotic nature is reminiscent of Captain von Kanton. This had not gone unnoticed, and made Vaughn more paranoid around his friends.

== History/Timeline ==

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">Early Life</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">The Desert Rose</span> ====

'''The Desert Rose''', an underground brothel hidden in Ul'dah, boasts pleasures for any taste. It is a place of debauchery, unregulated by Thanalan law, and run by the ruthless business woman, '''Madame Tatyana Levvine'''. Though it is not often addressed, companions (also known illegitimately as "whores") are considered as and treated like slaves, and have their own hierarchy.

Every companion at the Rose bears the same rose-shaped tattoo on the heel of their right foot, but are one of four different colors based on status. Those with the black rose are those who were not born to the brothel and are there to work off a debt of some sort. They are not allowed to partake in any sexual activity while indebted, and the Madame usually turns them out as soon as the debt is paid, so as not to "blacken the pool" of desired companions.

Second in the hierarchy are those with a green rose. These are slaves born into the brothel but found lacking in either attractiveness or demeanor. These are the people seen distributing the others with tea, food, and whatever else is needed, and do not partake in any of the events.

A red rose determines those who were born in the brothel and used as companions. This is the most common mark in the Desert Rose.

Finally, at the top of the hierarchy, are those with a purple rose. These companions have been deemed worthy to mate and create children, and are the highest in value, therefore, the most expensive. There are very few of these companions, usually about eight males (one for every race and sub-type) and twenty-four females. However, numbers fluctuate depending on if the Madame deems a child of a mated pair to exceed her high standards of attractiveness, demeanor, and pliability.

Each mark of those born into the brothel are determined and inked when the child becomes of age to work at fifteen years old.

==== <span style="color:#800080">What It Was To Be Family</span> ====

Vaughn was born the only child of '''Thalandria Velengrais''' and the first child of '''Ambroise Antain''', two of the Wildwood resident companions picked to be parents based off certain qualities each had. He was then handed off to a wet nurse so his mother could get back to her shape and work again. Still, Thalandria would sneak in at night to care for her child, wanting to know what it felt like to be part of a normal family.

When Thalandria was caught feeding her child, Madame Levvine took her to the "dungeon" and punished her for her insolence. She was whipped and had her mammary sacks removed so the incident could not happen again. They were replaced with a soft, pliable substance to maintain the shape and softness of real breasts, but she would never again be able to feed a child. After all, she was not meant for caring for children; she just needed to make them.

Ambroise, on the other hand, was encouraged to be Vaughn's role model and teach him what it was to be a companion. The lessons started when Vaughn was two years old. He learned to do the basic duties such as cleaning, serving tea, and aesthetics. Between showing at an early age to have a knack for beautiful color and pattern combinations, and his pale and soft complexion, Vaughn earned the nickname "Marthette", or "Little Lady".

Even though Ambroise followed every rule and was considered to be the most well-behaved companion, he did have a small rebellious streak. When Vaughn was three years old, he became the older brother to Ambroise's and '''Cosette Nâdiya''''s son, '''Holiander'''. This one transgression, as Cosette bore a red mark, had Madame Levvine castrate Ambroise and remove the purple mark on his heel, replacing it with a green one.

After witnessing such an event, three-year-old Vaughn did what he could to keep himself out of trouble. He did whatever he was told to do as soon as he was told to do it. Ambroise still trained him and Holiander, as was his duty.

Unlike Vaughn, Holiander was rambunctious and payed little attention to what was expected of him. This didn't become apparent until the boys were ten and seven, respectively. It was around this time when Holiander started showing signs of illness, which Madame Levvine called "proof of ill-breeding".

==== <span style="color:#800080">Holiander</span> ====

Vaughn did everything he could to keep his little brother out of the Madame's sights. Though it became easier when Holiander fell ill, it just made Vaughn even more worried for him. By the time he was nine, Holiander had a difficult time breathing. By ten, he couldn't walk.

The years seemed to degrade him more and more, until he was completely bedridden with constant fevers by the time he was fourteen. His skin and hair blanched to stark whiteness, and his usually bright aqua eyes were a pale shade of blue.

[[File:Holiander.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Holiander Antain]]Vaughn, now seventeen, grew into a beautiful young man. In contrast to his half-brother, he had shining golden hair and brilliant green eyes. Though he had a fair complexion, it shone with a subtle golden glow. These qualities had Madame Levvine give him the purple mark, making him take the place of his once-beloved father.

However, he still couldn't leave Holiander to his fate. Vaughn resorted to stealing the jewelry in Madame Levvine's private quarters whenever he was invited back there for recreation. Any gift that he was given by a patron was just as quickly turned into the markets for gil. Even his best friend of the Rose, Madame Levvine's own daughter '''Sasha Levvine''', helped with collecting valuables to sell during monthly trips to market. Everything Vaughn could save was spent on concoctions from the alchemists to try and heal Holiander.

For a while, it didn't seem to work. Holiander became delusional and saw those around him as demons trying to take his life. Except for Vaughn. He saw his older brother as the one guardian angel he could trust, and would only eat or drink if it came from Vaughn, or "Aulucien" ("Golden Light") as Holiander called him.

Holiander started to recover eight months into his treatments, as Vaughn became able to discern what his illness actually was. It took an additional two months after that before the fevers would subside and Holiander could think once again. Unable to remember his name, he started to call himself "Alaire". Vaughn corrected him on multiple occasions, but Holiander didn't like the way it sounded. Instead, to satisfy his brother, he decided to go by "Holi" as it sounded happier.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A Short Engagement</span> ====

In order to bring gilflow to a mostly underground business, weekly trips into the markets were a necessity. Two companions, a male and a female, were sent with various pieces of jewelry, clothing, and other items unneeded in the brothel for trade. Each companion took with them one of the slaves with the black mark as a retainer.

Being the most beautiful male, Vaughn often made the trades. He insisted Holi should be his retainer, keeping him out of the brothel for as long as possible. It also gave him a chance to be just a person out with family, which made the brothers' bond even stronger. This arrangement went well for a few years, until Vaughn started noticing one of the other vendors.

'''Jerrah Garalad''' sold many varieties of fish her and her family caught in the small village of Crescent Cove. She had beautiful, sun-kissed brown skin and dyed parts of her dark hair red. What drew him to her the most were her brilliant blue eyes. They sparkled when she laughed, and she laughed often. She became his one glimmer of hope for a normal life, and they were soon engaged.

She promised Vaughn that he and Holi would never become someone else's property once they were married. Still, she was a poor woman and such an arrangement would take time. Soon after their engagement, however, Madame Levvine kept both Vaughn and Holi under lock and key, and told Jerrah Vaughn abandoned her. Since then, Madame Levvine had Vaughn take Sasha with him whenever he went into the markets to deter any more of his "nonsense".

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">Life as a Pirate</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">Captain von Kanton</span> ====

A few months passed since Vaughn and Jerrah parted ways, and it was during a scheduled market day when he and Sasha were approached by '''Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton'''. He stood a couple ilms taller than Vaughn, making him an intimidating hyur to say the least. His short dark hair, sharp brown eyes, and tanned sea-kissed skin only added to the allure Vaughn felt. He was dark and mysterious, yet frightening, and the Elezen had a hard time pretending to be disappointed when Ateryu bought him from the brothel to be his personal slave upon his ship, the '''Sea Nymph'''. [[File:Ateryu1.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton]]

Ateryu was a superstitious man, and having Vaughn aboard sated the crew's need to have a woman tend to their needs without having one, as they were "bad luck". In order to keep the Elezen in an amorous mood to be able to take the crew at their whim, Ateryu also stocked himself with ''aetheri'', a highly addictive and expensive drug the Rose often used for the same purpose.

The Captain kept Vaughn on a tight leash, only allowing him to do or say things Ateryu allowed. He was not allowed to have a thought of his own, and the slightest hint of one caused Ateryu to beat it out of him until he was once again the submissive slave Ateryu purchased.

==== <span style="color:#800080">The First Year</span> ====

It didn't take long for Vaughn to learn his place in Ateryu's crew. The first few months consisted of bending to the depravity of the crew, nothing much different than what he was already used to from the Rose.

By the seventh month, however, Ateryu became more possessive of his investment. He no longer allowed the crew to touch the Elezen, and outright killed those who even whispered his name. Vaughn spent most of his time locked in the Captain's quarters, expected to be ready whenever Ateryu wanted. Which was often.

Over the next few months, Ateryu started to talk to Vaughn. His tone softened around him, and he became more tender with him. Ateryu confessed love to him, branding him with the symbol of his crew on the inside of his left hip. However, around his crew, Ateryu still humiliated him with public lashings and strangulation, though he killed any of the crew who tried to join in on the "fun".

This was also the time when Ateryu charged Vaughn with a mission.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Introduction to Loss</span> ====

The Captain was an arrogant man, and in his arrogance he believed he could control the primal Leviathan. To do this, he required a book that was in the possession of a Gridanian noblewoman. This noblewoman, '''Silveaux De'leann''', married Holi shortly before Ateryu purchased Vaughn. So the solution was simple; Ateryu would send a message to the De'leann estate claiming Vaughn wished to see his brother at sea. Ateryu would then invade her estate, kill everyone inside and take her book, while Vaughn would kill Holi to prevent any risk of retribution.

Vaughn took the plan hard. While he didn't understand the reasoning behind summoning the primal, he understood killing the person he worked so hard to keep alive was unnecessary. He loved his brother, but he loved Ateryu and lived only to please him.

With gritted teeth, Vaughn did as his lover asked. He met with Holi on the Sea of Jade, sneaking aboard to take him quickly and to not have to look at the horrible deed. However, Holi turned to face him, pleaded against Ateryu's wishes, and offered Vaughn freedom through himself and his wife. When Vaughn reluctantly refused, Holi surrendered, writing a letter to his dear Silveaux with a lock of his hair enclosed in an envelope. After beheading his brother, Vaughn kept the letter and lock with him, praying for his brother's forgiveness.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Enough is Enough</span> ====

Ten cycles passed with the Captain, every cycle seeming worse than the last. Vaughn was tortured, tormented, forced to watch his loved ones die (some by his own hand), and look on helplessly as the Captain murdered his way around Eorzea.

The time came when Vaughn finally mustered the courage to stand up for himself. The Captain was sleeping in his bed, exhausted from the day of village slaughter followed by his forceful ways with him. He slowly crawled out of their bed to the nightstand where Ateryu kept his rusty, dull dagger. After stifling his own tears, Vaughn plunged the dagger straight through his throat.

The event left him numb for months. He took the helm of the ship, pretending the Captain was just ill so as not to rouse suspicion. The crew believed him, or they just didn't care as long as they got their share of the plunder. When they made port eight months after the Captain passed, Vaughn sneaked away and hasn't looked back.

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">The Free Slave</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">One Step Forward, Three Steps Back</span> ====

Over the next year, he took up formal archery training out of respect for his kin, training in Gridania and earning rank within the God's Bow. He took orders well, earning the respect of his comrades, but also regressing to his former self. He became a shell of what he tried to become, open to nothing but the commands of the General of the God's Bow.

During that same year, he visited his former home of Ul'dah. There, he learned of the poor folk that couldn't reclaim their homes near Vesper Bay relocated to Crescent Cove, Jerrah among them with a ten-year-old boy. Out of curiosity, he traveled to the Cove and met '''Richtor Garalad'''. He recognized instantly that the boy had Thalandria's bright blue eyes, and was his son.

Vaughn attempted to speak with Jerrah about his suspicions, but she pushed him away as quickly as she saw him. She recognized Vaughn as the reason she lost her family in Vesper Bay and refused to let him see Richtor. However, this did not deter him, and the two managed to meet and spend time together in the late hours and whenever Jerrah went to market to sell her wares. Vaughn taught Rictor to use the bow in the Gridanian style, as it was taught to him. The two grew close very quickly, but when Jerrah found out about them spending time together behind her back, she attacked Vaughn and warned him to never return.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Facets of Eorzea</span> ====

Vaughn then left Thanalan and the Black Shroud behind, finding little joy in anything there. He made his way to Limsa Lominsa, and enlisted with the Maelstrom to use his skill as a Bowman against the pirates he once fought alongside. Again, he rose quickly in rank, blindly following orders with ability and precision. Still, it wasn't enough to keep him out of trouble there as well. '''Admiral [[Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn]]''' learned of Vaughn's affiliation with pirates and discharged him, though honorably as he did nothing against Limsa or her armada.

This was still enough to send Vaughn into another spiral of self-doubt and wandering. While sitting on the docks, watching the ships sail into the sunset, he was approached by three miqo'tes: '''[[R'shesha Otharn]]''', '''[[Nihka Mioni]]''', and '''[[R'khen Tia]]'''. They talked until the early morning hours, Vaughn making them smoked salmon right on the pier. After, R'shesha approached him about joining her in trying to convince her Free Company, the '''Facets of Eorzea''', that the Garlean threat was right on their doorstep and they should be idle no longer.

Vaughn spoke with their then leader, '''[[Clouse Sydonis]]''', who seemed to admire Vaughn's spirit and desire to help wherever it was needed. Clouse enlisted him in the Company, and Vaughn had a new home and purpose once again.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Corruption and Hope</span> ====

The first mission Clouse sent Vaughn on was an ongoing investigation on '''[[Ashe En'vale]]''', a chaotic and charismatic red-haired hyur. Along with fellow Facets '''[[Chiane N'ardente]]''', '''[[Jael Laksha]]''', and R'shesha, Vaughn tracked and conversed with Ashe, eventually "joining" his side so he could report information back to Clouse and the rest of the Facets. It backfired, and after getting another Facet involved, '''[[An'nai Tir'Atha]]''', Vaughn was in a position he did not want to be in. Ashe imbedded a corrupted crystal into Vaughn's chest, allowing the Elezen access to a hidden power inside him. A power he could not easily control.

[[File:Vaughn Jaques.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Vaughn with Jaques]]The crystal opened his mind to blind hatred and rage, while also giving him the power to create fire from nothing. However, instead of being afraid, Vaughn took it as an opportunity to strengthen himself while he used the power to help others, with the intention of also using it against Ashe. A newfound boldness overtook the meek Wildwood, and he was finally able to tell fellow Facet '''[[Jaques Guillaume]]''' exactly how he felt about him. After a few more encounters, and actions that turned away brother-like An'nai, the two started dating.

It was then that Vaughn started to feel not quite himself. His body temperature continued to rise, though he never felt sick. He neither ate nor slept, and Jaques convinced Vaughn to give up the crystal, or lose himself to it. Vaughn agreed, and they went to Nihka for help, as she had been studying the corrupted crystals and knew best how to rid oneself of it's influence. After fighting through the ritual to not only keep the power but take in the countering aether, Vaughn was left weakened and nearly dead. However, both Jaques and Nihka watched over him until he was able to regain his strength and returned to being the shy, yet comfortable Elezen they knew and cared for.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A New Beginning</span> ====

After a few moons, and a falling out with the Facets, Vaughn and Jaques became much closer, to the point where one will rarely go anywhere without the other. The loss of touch with the aether around him made Vaughn want to try with a non-corrupted crystal to harness the power once again. With a bit of convincing, Jaques agreed to allow Vaughn to receive a wind crystal in the corrupted crystal's place.

The adjustment took a toll on them both, but through a few techniques Jaques taught him through his monk training, Vaughn was able to contain the power and shield his crystal from taking in random (and his own) aether. Currently, he is able to use the crystal to enhance his other combat skills, as well as new skills Jaques is helping him train in.

==Character==
[[File:Jaques Tiergan.jpg|300px|thumb|left|Art by Tiergan Vashir.]]
This guarded, scowling, and often intimidating looking Duskwight tends to keep to himself. Those observing him may notice how he seems to always move with purpose and carries himself with confidence and balance. Whatever he is wearing will typically be in good repair, although obviously well used.

===General===

Server: Balmung

Full Name: Jaques Guillaume

Name & Aliases: Jaques, Tabby, Tabby-elf (which he hates), Jack (usually as an insult or those who are after or know about the bounty.)

Pronunciation (listen to the french version): [http://translate.google.com/#en/fr/Jaques%20Guillaume]

Birthplace: - The Clan Marécage caverns are located in southern Coerthas. In the mountains just north of the Yafaem Saltmoor.

Voice: Deep, mature, masculine.

===Appearance===

[[File:Jaques scarrification.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Scarification banner down right side.]]
Jaques is on the tall and heavy side for an elezen, standing at about 6 fulms 10 ilms and roughly coming in at 240 ponz. Although he is in no way fat. In fact he's more on the well-muscled side for his kind. Instead of the typical grey and ashen skin tones of other Duskwights his is dark brown. His face is is rectangular with a thin, sharp, slightly down-turned nose, fuller lips, and a stern and pronounced brow over narrow, almond shaped bright amber eyes. He has a old scar that runs diagonally down away from his nose on his left cheek and has a fading black tribal like tattoo around his eyes that seems to only accentuate the guarded and impassive scowl that he typically wears. His thick and unruly black hair is kept braided back away from his face at pretty much all times and the thick, full beard is kept trimmed and well groomed. His ears are of slightly longer length than average and upturn slightly at the tips. The lobes are pierced and he usually wears a pair of black dangling claws fashioned into earrings. At his neck he wears a black bone and stone necklace and is otherwise unadorned with such accessories.

Jaques's clothing tends to run on the more practical and simple side rather than anything flashing and flamboyant and seems to prefer more muted and natural colour tones. He's most often seen in leathers of some variety with a pair of metal claws strapped to a heavily pouched belt. He always has a hunting knife strapped to his right boot. He sometimes is seen wearing dark plate armour and sporting a large axe strapped to his back. He is almost always seen carrying a much abused and patched pack.

His layered scarring gives away his life as a melee fighter. If one can see his legs and arms they'd see several minor scars on his knuckles, forearms, shins and knees. All of them of varying ages. He does has a few body scars. Claw rakes run parallel to the spine over his shoulder blades. There is a scar from what was probably a fairly major wound on his right side just above his pelvic bone, going from front to back. Also on his right side, starting just below the armpit and ending just above the old scar is some very fresh scarrification. A tribal-esque banner. On his left side and peck he has a fairly major but fully healed burn scar. He also has a tattoo on his left bicep. A simple thin complete black band. The bottom of the band is lined with red and has a break on the outside of the arm with red orb in the center of the break.

===Behavior===

:'''Motivations:''' Helping those in need, especially those he calls friend. Building a new life for himself and for his love.

:'''Disposition:''' Quiet, cold, distrustful and stand-offish to those he first meets. However he does tend to remain polite. Protective and friendly to those he knows and calls friend.

He tends to keep to himself most times or is sometimes seen associating in smaller groups of people. He tends to be a planner, not liking to go into situations and confrontations blind. His emotions tend to be hidden behind his stern and impassive scowl. He does seem to actively avoid going into places that serve alcoholic beverages. With the only exception being the Bismarck where he occasionally works as as a fill in chef. It takes a bit to rile him but once his temper is lost he does tend to loose it violently. He can be quite opinionated on some things and doesn't have much of an issue sharing them once you can get him talking. However ask something too personal without being trusted and he'll clam right back up again.

Once he does start to open up more of his personality shines through. Such as his dry and sometimes sarcastic sense of humor and his protective nature. He is always seeming to want to know how those he cares about has been and how their fairing. If they're having troubles he usually will offer his assistance freely. Sometimes his protective nature can border on the obsessive and will practically force his assistance or protections on someone, whether it's fully wanted or not. He also tends to live more for others than for himself.

==You might know him from...==

When he was a wandering drunkard from the outskirts of the Shroud in the 3 years prior to game launch. Perhaps you gambled with him, gave him a handout or had a drunken brawl with him. Or perhaps you taunted him and scorned him. Or simply tried your best to ignore him.

Recently, you might have seen him in Ul'dah or Limsa. He seems to have cleaned himself up and has not been begging or drunk as far as anyone has seen.

Very recently you might know him from the Ul'dahn 150k gil bounty that had been placed on his head. The description matches Jaques but the name on the bounty has him listed as "Jack." Wanted dead or alive for harboring the fugitive Vaughn Antain, who has a bounty of 850k gil and wanted alive. These bounties are no longer active.

He is now the owner of The Desert Rose. Those from Ul'dah might have heard of the place at one time or another as a very expensive brothel located in the seedier section of Ul'dah. Current rumor is that the brothel is no longer accepting patrons although the reasons are a little vague and open for speculation.

==Rumors==

===Current Event Rumors===
::* "Backstabbing bastard if you ask me. Which you are. He turned in that whore fugitive he was 'harboring'. Even took a job at the brothel the Desert Rose, which is where he returned the whore to. Then again, maybe the whore Antain deserved it. Should'a seen the list he's wanted for. If even half of 'em were able to be proven he'd be put weaponless into a deathmatch in the pits for a bit of bloodsport." --Immortal Flames clerk
::* "He's runnin' a brothel now. His business partner, Callistus, was doin' some dark magic in the basement and vanished. Vivifan had to do a cleansing. Came back mighty pissed off about the whole thing too. Something about Leviathan." --Ossuary Thaurmaturge
::* "Desert Rose? Aye, I know of the place. Expensive whores there so I aint never been. Not much traffic goin' in or out of it lately though." --Refugee in Ul'dah
::* "He's been bringin' in instructors? What whores need with learning their history I don't know." --Talk over a job offer poster for the Desert Rose

===Common Rumors===
::* "Jaques? Yeah, I've seen him around. Often with some Twelves damned Green. What's that about?" -Prejudiced Duskwight
::* "I've seen him walking around with weapons. claws and sometimes a big ol' axe. But I've never seen him use them. Is he any good?" -Limsian adventurer
::* "He was working to be a full-time chef at the Bismarck. But he hasn't been around much lately and it's a shame, he made the -best- steaks." -Bismarck regular
;;* "Quiet. Doesn't stick around or talk much. But he always brings the catch in on time and to order." -Fisherman's guild attendant

===Moderate Rumors===
::* "He used to drink like a fish. Seems he's cleaned up nicely in the last few moons." -Heard around the Shroud.
::* "Jaques... Jaques... Ah. The Duskwight. He's a poaching bastard. Did you know he's got a fairly long criminal record here in Gridania? Stay away from him if you want to stay out of trouble here." - Wood Wailer
::* "I saw him being quite affectionate towards a couple of different young miqo'te girls. Dirty old man." -Disapproving hyur woman
::* "Jaques has taken a number of jobs from us that he's completed on time and efficiently. He usually takes jobs that involve a rampaging beast or doing various forms of pest control. He's a respected member of the Grand Company." - Maelstrom attendant

===Rare Rumors===
::* "There is this male Duskwight that sometimes gets a room here. Jock? Jack? Something like that. Anyway, he -always- shares it with this Wildwood that I thought was a woman at first, until he changed into his swim trunks. Anyroad, I had to go tell them to keep it down the last time they were here. If you know what I mean. It was so embarrassing!" gossiping Bronze Lake attendant.
::* "
::*

=== Player Character Rumors (Add anything you'd like, true or untrue, just keep it IC!) ===

::* "He likes to keep that Green of his close. I'm not sure if it's true feelings or just as some keep their possessions." -Callistus, Stoneshaper of Ul'dah
::* "He's modest, but he's quite the teacher. I mean, I didn't even know what the terms 'Grey' or 'Green' meant outside the Rose until he explained it to me!" -[[Vaughn Antain]]
::* "Tall, dark, and... he is a lot less brooding than he looks!" -[[Aya Foxheart]]

==Relationships==
===Family===

==Personal history==

===After exile===
Jaques had a fairly steep learning curve and a fair amount of culture shock since his exile. He did his best at first, scavenging off the land around the outskirts of the Shroud and never even set foot into a settlement. But then the first winter hit. He had no where to supply and stock provisions and he had to enter the outlying settlements else he starve or freeze to death. He'd scavenge from rubbish heaps for leftover scraps to eat and soon learned the art of begging for handouts. It was that first winter that he stared his decent into alcoholism. For the next three years he became little more than the areas wandering homeless drunkard. His life revolved on either being completely sloshed, or figuring out how to become that way.

A chance encounter with a Miqo'te named Polkah, the first person since the exile to really help. Gave him the nudge he needed to get him on a better path for himself. That story can be found here: [http://facetsofeorzea.enjin.com/forum/m/11780670/viewthread/7977473-jaques-gillaume-recovering-alcoholic]

==Clan Marécage information==
<spoiler>
===General information===

::* The Clan Marécage caverns are located in southern Coerthas. In the mountains just north of the Yafaem Saltmoor.
::* The caverns were discovered by a group of 12 extended families. The Guillaume were one of those families that makes up their clan.
::* The community is highly insular, communal, and are a fairly self sufficient hunter/gatherer society.
::* They have no monetary system.
::* The caverns are not just rough cut walls. Stoneshapers (sculptors) are highly prized for their artistry. Patterns and gems have been carved and inset into the walls, columns and passages. The floors are polished smooth. Sculptures representing Byregot are common.
::* Just over a malm away there is another cave structure that this tribe actively mines for gems and other earth commodities.
::* The clan has been and remains to be fairly successful due to the community's continued sweat blood and tears.
::* For religion they acknowledge the Twelve. But they have strong leanings to Byregot, the Builder. They have rituals and such they perform before excavating a new area in order to ensure a safe excavation and divining where to dig. They also have a few religious holidays in his honor.
::* Those charged with defense of the caverns and any activity outside the caverns are called Guardians.
::* Cave structure and development. Originally the caves where three large connected caverns. With hard labor (and explosives...) over the centuries they have added additional large caverns as well as smaller branches leading to private living quarters. The living quarters are pretty much just for that. They are fairly small spaces and used for sleeping/intimacy/privacy. When a couple newly wed, they will take up a spare living quarter. If none are available then one would have to be hollowed out. Of the original three caverns: The first cavern, the one leading to above ground, is the smallest of the caverns. It is used primarily as a staging and receiving area. Goods that are brought in are processed here. DWs heading out of the caverns use this area to equip, supply and prepare. The second cavern is the largest. This is where games/the arena/festivals/the school/general socializing can be found and is held. Most of the living quarter branches start off from this cavern. The third cavern, still fairly large in size, is the community mess hall. Most of the storage and mushroom crop passages lead off from this cavern. The clan created a fourth cavern deeper than the original three. This one is where the council members convene and work. The only passage from that cavern is the one linking it to the third.
::* During one of their early living quarter expansions, they blasted into a small crevice that extended deeper down into the earth. Right into an underground river. This is where the community's fresh water is now supplied from. When things shifted during the calamity, the crevice apparently deepened and the clan had to rework their mechanical pump to reach their fresh water supply.
::* At the time of Jaques exile there were ~350 individuals that called the caverns their home.
::* Up until very recently there had been no conjuration available in the caverns and so they used more traditional medicines and alchemy.

===Politics/laws===

::* The 12 families elect one head to represent them on the council.
::* The council is responsible for directing and looking out for the best interests of the community as a whole. The clan has notices that 12 families coincides with The Twelve. It is considered a good omen. But it isn't like each seat represents one of The Twelve or anything like that.
<spoiler>
::* In lean years the council takes direct control on rationing and distributing goods.
::* Under the council, prominent family members tend to look after and police their own families.

'''Laws:'''

::* One must provide for the community in some capacity.
::* One will never take the life of another.
::* One will not take more than their share. Especially at the expense of others.
::* Two child per married couple. (This was established at the founding of the clan to help create a stable, predictable population growth. By this point it's tradition and not much push to change the law.)

===Growing up in the clan===

There is a school set up in the main cavern that serves as a place for children to learn about a variety of subjects. They start schooling at about the age of 5. The elders are usually tasked with teaching the younger generations.

A child isn't restricted to a job their parents adhere to. Instead, as part of their schooling, they are tested for a variety of aptitudes and are nudged to fully explore and discover those strengths. A child who shows remarkable physical prowess and skills at combat will usually become the guardians and hunters. One that shows a lot of abstract thought and looks/plans on things as a whole would probably be groomed as a family head, if not a potential council member.

Combat learning (whether physical or magical) was just as manditory to learn as reading, writing, and plant lore.

===Punishment===

The individual accused will stand before the council. The council will review their crime and then a majority vote will take place on the level of punishment.

'''Ostracism'''- The lowest tier of punishment. Most common punishment. The individual will be ostracized from the group for an initial period of 3-7 days with a third party community member being assigned to monitor the individual. They will still be allowed to live amongst the community and their caverns will still provide a roof over their heads. But that will be the extent of that the community will help the convicted individual. They will not get to partake in the communal meals and services.
If the individual didn't simply leave the tribe or die, (both rare) then the individual would be presented back in front of the council for further judgement. The person who had been assigned to monitor the convicted will report their findings of how the convicted performed. If they attempted to make amends with the community (Still providing some service for the community even though they were getting nothing in return for example.) then the individual would be welcomed back into the community. If the convicted didn't try to make amends or deliberately decided to continue to cause issues inside the community, then the council would re-review the individual's punishment. It could be extended if they saw some hope. Or the punishment could escalate.

'''Banishment'''- The middle tier of punishment. Fairly rare punishment. But was known to happen. The individual will have demonstrated that they could not and/or would not assimilate into the community and work for the community betterment. This individual is given a small window of time to supply and say farewells. Then they must leave the clan. They were allowed to visit and share on major holidays, if they wished, to check up on any loved ones they left behind.

'''Exiled'''- The top and final tier of punishment. Reserved for those who actively and intentionally caused some harm to the community. Very rare punishment. The individual, upon sentencing, is immediately cast out with only the Items on their person. Their names are stricken from record as the individual is kicked out of even their family. In the eyes of the clan: The exiled have the duskwight race. But he/she may no longer BE a duskwight. The individual is (obviously) never allowed back to the caverns.

'''Additional notes''':

Usually if the crime isn't large enough to make it to the council, the family heads will punish their own. Sometimes with lesser ostracism but could include everything from a stern talking to, to a public humiliation, or to a caning.

Infanticide, while uncommon, is practiced within reason. Its one of the grim allowances they've made to relieve some of the restriction on a couple only being able to have two children. For instance: because neither gender is viewed more desirable than another, killing an infant based solely on gender is hugely taboo. Couples have been banished for it. But if the babe has a major physical deformity or very apparent diminished mental capacity at or shortly after birth? Then it is generally considered a kindness to help those babes pass on rather than have them not be able to fit within and be unable to contribute to the society.

===Outside interactions/contacts===

Common expeditions out of the caverns.

::* To head down to the saltmoors for fishing, hunting, and gathering.
::* To head to the mine.

Scheduled expeditions out of the caverns.

::* To convene with a couple neighboring clans for joint holidays/customs/and trade.
::* Once a year, after the majority of the trading with the neighboring clans had concluded, and towards the end of the harvest season for the surface dwellers. The clan puts together a caravan of the seasons surplus goods and gems make the many malm journey eastwards. There they meet up with a predominately hyur settlement where they trade for things like grains, textiles, and other resources and luxuries they can't get themselves.

Jaques is on the tall and heavy side for an elezen, standing at about 6 fulms 10 ilms and roughly coming in at 240 ponz. Although he is in no way fat. In fact he's more on the well-muscled side for his kind. Instead of the typical grey and ashen skin tones of other Duskwights his is dark brown. His face is is rectangular with a thin, sharp, slightly down-turned nose, fuller lips, and a stern and pronounced brow over narrow, almond shaped bright amber eyes. He has a old scar that runs diagonally down away from his nose on his left cheek and has a fading black tribal like tattoo around his eyes that seems to only accentuate the guarded and impassive scowl that he typically wears. His thick and unruly black hair is kept braided back away from his face at pretty much all times and the thick, full beard is kept trimmed and well groomed. His ears are of slightly longer length than average and upturn slightly at the tips. The lobes are pierced and he usually wears a pair of black dangling claws fashioned into earrings. At his neck he wears a black bone and stone necklace and is otherwise unadorned with such accessories.

Jaques's clothing tends to run on the more practical and simple side rather than anything flashing and flamboyant and seems to prefer more muted and natural colour tones. He's most often seen in leathers of some variety with a pair of metal claws strapped to a heavily pouched belt. He always has a hunting knife strapped to his right boot. He sometimes is seen wearing dark plate armour and sporting a large axe strapped to his back. He is almost always seen carrying a much abused and patched pack.

His layered scarring gives away his life as a melee fighter. If one can see his legs and arms they'd see several minor scars on his knuckles, forearms, shins and knees. All of them of varying ages. He does has a few body scars. Claw rakes run parallel to the spine over his shoulder blades. There is a scar from what was probably a fairly major wound on his right side just above his pelvic bone, going from front to back. Also on his right side, starting just below the armpit and ending just above the old scar is some very fresh scarrification. A tribal-esque banner. On his left side and peck he has a fairly major but fully healed burn scar. He also has a tattoo on his left bicep. A simple thin complete black band. The bottom of the band is lined with red and has a break on the outside of the arm with red orb in the center of the break.

===Behavior===

:'''Motivations:''' Helping those in need, especially those he calls friend. Building a new life for himself and for his love.

:'''Disposition:''' Quiet, cold, distrustful and stand-offish to those he first meets. However he does tend to remain polite. Protective and friendly to those he knows and calls friend.

He tends to keep to himself most times or is sometimes seen associating in smaller groups of people. He tends to be a planner, not liking to go into situations and confrontations blind. His emotions tend to be hidden behind his stern and impassive scowl. He does seem to actively avoid going into places that serve alcoholic beverages. With the only exception being the Bismarck where he occasionally works as as a fill in chef. It takes a bit to rile him but once his temper is lost he does tend to loose it violently. He can be quite opinionated on some things and doesn't have much of an issue sharing them once you can get him talking. However ask something too personal without being trusted and he'll clam right back up again.

Once he does start to open up more of his personality shines through. Such as his dry and sometimes sarcastic sense of humor and his protective nature. He is always seeming to want to know how those he cares about has been and how their fairing. If they're having troubles he usually will offer his assistance freely. Sometimes his protective nature can border on the obsessive and will practically force his assistance or protections on someone, whether it's fully wanted or not. He also tends to live more for others than for himself.

==You might know him from...==

When he was a wandering drunkard from the outskirts of the Shroud in the 3 years prior to game launch. Perhaps you gambled with him, gave him a handout or had a drunken brawl with him. Or perhaps you taunted him and scorned him. Or simply tried your best to ignore him.

Recently, you might have seen him in Ul'dah or Limsa. He seems to have cleaned himself up and has not been begging or drunk as far as anyone has seen.

Very recently you might know him from the Ul'dahn 150k gil bounty that had been placed on his head. The description matches Jaques but the name on the bounty has him listed as "Jack." Wanted dead or alive for harboring the fugitive Vaughn Antain, who has a bounty of 850k gil and wanted alive. These bounties are no longer active.

He is now the owner of The Desert Rose. Those from Ul'dah might have heard of the place at one time or another as a very expensive brothel located in the seedier section of Ul'dah. Current rumor is that the brothel is no longer accepting patrons although the reasons are a little vague and open for speculation.

==Rumors==

===Current Event Rumors===
::* "Backstabbing bastard if you ask me. Which you are. He turned in that whore fugitive he was 'harboring'. Even took a job at the brothel the Desert Rose, which is where he returned the whore to. Then again, maybe the whore Antain deserved it. Should'a seen the list he's wanted for. If even half of 'em were able to be proven he'd be put weaponless into a deathmatch in the pits for a bit of bloodsport." --Immortal Flames clerk
::* "He's runnin' a brothel now. His business partner, Callistus, was doin' some dark magic in the basement and vanished. Vivifan had to do a cleansing. Came back mighty pissed off about the whole thing too. Something about Leviathan." --Ossuary Thaurmaturge
::* "Desert Rose? Aye, I know of the place. Expensive whores there so I aint never been. Not much traffic goin' in or out of it lately though." --Refugee in Ul'dah
::* "He's been bringin' in instructors? What whores need with learning their history I don't know." --Talk over a job offer poster for the Desert Rose

===Common Rumors===
::* "Jaques? Yeah, I've seen him around. Often with some Twelves damned Green. What's that about?" -Prejudiced Duskwight
::* "I've seen him walking around with weapons. claws and sometimes a big ol' axe. But I've never seen him use them. Is he any good?" -Limsian adventurer

===Rare Rumors===
::* "There is this male Duskwight that sometimes gets a room here. Jock? Jack? Something like that. Anyway, he -always- shares it with this Wildwood that I thought was a woman at first, until he changed into his swim trunks. Anyroad, I had to go tell them to keep it down the last time they were here. If you know what I mean. It was so embarrassing!" gossiping Bronze Lake attendant.

==Personal history==

===After exile===
Jaques had a fairly steep learning curve and a fair amount of culture shock since his exile. He did his best at first, scavenging off the land around the outskirts of the Shroud and never even set foot into a settlement. But then the first winter hit. He had no where to supply and stock provisions and he had to enter the outlying settlements else he starve or freeze to death. He'd scavenge from rubbish heaps for leftover scraps to eat and soon learned the art of begging for handouts. It was that first winter that he stared his decent into alcoholism. For the next three years he became little more than the areas wandering homeless drunkard. His life revolved on either being completely sloshed, or figuring out how to become that way.

A chance encounter with a Miqo'te named Polkah, the first person since the exile to really help. Gave him the nudge he needed to get him on a better path for himself. That story can be found here: [http://facetsofeorzea.enjin.com/forum/m/11780670/viewthread/7977473-jaques-gillaume-recovering-alcoholic]

==Clan Marécage information==
<spoiler>
===General information===

::* The Clan Marécage caverns are located in southern Coerthas. In the mountains just north of the Yafaem Saltmoor.
::* The caverns were discovered by a group of 12 extended families. The Guillaume were one of those families that makes up their clan.
::* The community is highly insular, communal, and are a fairly self sufficient hunter/gatherer society.
::* They have no monetary system.
::* The caverns are not just rough cut walls. Stoneshapers (sculptors) are highly prized for their artistry. Patterns and gems have been carved and inset into the walls, columns and passages. The floors are polished smooth. Sculptures representing Byregot are common.
::* Just over a malm away there is another cave structure that this tribe actively mines for gems and other earth commodities.
::* The clan has been and remains to be fairly successful due to the community's continued sweat blood and tears.
::* For religion they acknowledge the Twelve. But they have strong leanings to Byregot, the Builder. They have rituals and such they perform before excavating a new area in order to ensure a safe excavation and divining where to dig. They also have a few religious holidays in his honor.
::* Those charged with defense of the caverns and any activity outside the caverns are called Guardians.
::* Cave structure and development. Originally the caves where three large connected caverns. With hard labor (and explosives...) over the centuries they have added additional large caverns as well as smaller branches leading to private living quarters. The living quarters are pretty much just for that. They are fairly small spaces and used for sleeping/intimacy/privacy. When a couple newly wed, they will take up a spare living quarter. If none are available then one would have to be hollowed out. Of the original three caverns: The first cavern, the one leading to above ground, is the smallest of the caverns. It is used primarily as a staging and receiving area. Goods that are brought in are processed here. DWs heading out of the caverns use this area to equip, supply and prepare. The second cavern is the largest. This is where games/the arena/festivals/the school/general socializing can be found and is held. Most of the living quarter branches start off from this cavern. The third cavern, still fairly large in size, is the community mess hall. Most of the storage and mushroom crop passages lead off from this cavern. The clan created a fourth cavern deeper than the original three. This one is where the council members convene and work. The only passage from that cavern is the one linking it to the third.
::* During one of their early living quarter expansions, they blasted into a small crevice that extended deeper down into the earth. Right into an underground river. This is where the community's fresh water is now supplied from. When things shifted during the calamity, the crevice apparently deepened and the clan had to rework their mechanical pump to reach their fresh water supply.
::* At the time of Jaques exile there were ~350 individuals that called the caverns their home.
::* Up until very recently there had been no conjuration available in the caverns and so they used more traditional medicines and alchemy.

===Politics/laws===

::* The 12 families elect one head to represent them on the council.
::* The council is responsible for directing and looking out for the best interests of the community as a whole. The clan has notices that 12 families coincides with The Twelve. It is considered a good omen. But it isn't like each seat represents one of The Twelve or anything like that.
<spoiler>
::* In lean years the council takes direct control on rationing and distributing goods.
::* Under the council, prominent family members tend to look after and police their own families.

'''Laws:'''

::* One must provide for the community in some capacity.
::* One will never take the life of another.
::* One will not take more than their share. Especially at the expense of others.
::* Two child per married couple. (This was established at the founding of the clan to help create a stable, predictable population growth. By this point it's tradition and not much push to change the law.)

===Growing up in the clan===

There is a school set up in the main cavern that serves as a place for children to learn about a variety of subjects. They start schooling at about the age of 5. The elders are usually tasked with teaching the younger generations.

A child isn't restricted to a job their parents adhere to. Instead, as part of their schooling, they are tested for a variety of aptitudes and are nudged to fully explore and discover those strengths. A child who shows remarkable physical prowess and skills at combat will usually become the guardians and hunters. One that shows a lot of abstract thought and looks/plans on things as a whole would probably be groomed as a family head, if not a potential council member.

Combat learning (whether physical or magical) was just as manditory to learn as reading, writing, and plant lore.

===Punishment===

The individual accused will stand before the council. The council will review their crime and then a majority vote will take place on the level of punishment.

'''Ostracism'''- The lowest tier of punishment. Most common punishment. The individual will be ostracized from the group for an initial period of 3-7 days with a third party community member being assigned to monitor the individual. They will still be allowed to live amongst the community and their caverns will still provide a roof over their heads. But that will be the extent of that the community will help the convicted individual. They will not get to partake in the communal meals and services.
If the individual didn't simply leave the tribe or die, (both rare) then the individual would be presented back in front of the council for further judgement. The person who had been assigned to monitor the convicted will report their findings of how the convicted performed. If they attempted to make amends with the community (Still providing some service for the community even though they were getting nothing in return for example.) then the individual would be welcomed back into the community. If the convicted didn't try to make amends or deliberately decided to continue to cause issues inside the community, then the council would re-review the individual's punishment. It could be extended if they saw some hope. Or the punishment could escalate.

'''Banishment'''- The middle tier of punishment. Fairly rare punishment. But was known to happen. The individual will have demonstrated that they could not and/or would not assimilate into the community and work for the community betterment. This individual is given a small window of time to supply and say farewells. Then they must leave the clan. They were allowed to visit and share on major holidays, if they wished, to check up on any loved ones they left behind.

'''Exiled'''- The top and final tier of punishment. Reserved for those who actively and intentionally caused some harm to the community. Very rare punishment. The individual, upon sentencing, is immediately cast out with only the Items on their person. Their names are stricken from record as the individual is kicked out of even their family. In the eyes of the clan: The exiled have the duskwight race. But he/she may no longer BE a duskwight. The individual is (obviously) never allowed back to the caverns.

'''Additional notes''':

Usually if the crime isn't large enough to make it to the council, the family heads will punish their own. Sometimes with lesser ostracism but could include everything from a stern talking to, to a public humiliation, or to a caning.

Infanticide, while uncommon, is practiced within reason. Its one of the grim allowances they've made to relieve some of the restriction on a couple only being able to have two children. For instance: because neither gender is viewed more desirable than another, killing an infant based solely on gender is hugely taboo. Couples have been banished for it. But if the babe has a major physical deformity or very apparent diminished mental capacity at or shortly after birth? Then it is generally considered a kindness to help those babes pass on rather than have them not be able to fit within and be unable to contribute to the society.

===Outside interactions/contacts===

Common expeditions out of the caverns.

::* To head down to the saltmoors for fishing, hunting, and gathering.
::* To head to the mine.

Scheduled expeditions out of the caverns.

::* To convene with a couple neighboring clans for joint holidays/customs/and trade.
::* Once a year, after the majority of the trading with the neighboring clans had concluded, and towards the end of the harvest season for the surface dwellers. The clan puts together a caravan of the seasons surplus goods and gems make the many malm journey eastwards. There they meet up with a predominately hyur settlement where they trade for things like grains, textiles, and other resources and luxuries they can't get themselves.
