: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Mar. 03)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a pair of daggers, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

<br><br><i>(Names are alphabetical according to color.)</i><br><br></center>

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Rinannis]] :''' (Wife) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' (Adopted son) Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Deisara Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The older of Lilithium's twin daughters, and the much more brazen of the two. Locke tries his best to not be on Dei's bad side (and to assure her that he has the best intentions), though by proxy of being newly married to her beloved mother, he is in a bit of a deficit with her favor. To no one's surprise, he is very intimidated by her.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Sarameda Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The younger of Lilithium's twin daughters. Locke tries to be aware of her shy and doe-like hesitance by being extra careful and cordial, though he isn't sure if that's making it better or worse. He does enjoy her company, though he wishes she wouldn't be so apprehensive of him.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Cyrus Chambers :''' A enigmatic scholar whom Locke met on the roads of the Shroud. Soon into their initial conversation, he discovered that Cyrus had information that may prove vital to his condition. He looks forward to bumping into the man around the Free Wing house again, to discuss things further.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' For a long time, Locke was only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. Locke had not seen or heard from him until he reappeared as a potential client in Locke's repair shop nearly a year later. With so much time passed, Locke can't place where he has seen Kale before, but the two seem to get along rather well, and Locke now does most of the repairs for the Goblet's local U'ldahn barracks.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Sitting Ox :''' Locke had only seen Sitting Ox around the society grounds on occasion before he disappeared. He had not seen him again until an incident within the Shroud. Locke hopes to be on better terms with him in the future.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

He may also be spotted at the company's house in Lavender Beds, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

[[File:yukipoke.png|300px|right]]
=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;background:#9370DB;font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;">General</div> ===

With her petite form and naivety, some wonder how Yuki [Pronounced Yu-KEY] managed to live for this long. Even though she seems like a rather open person, there are still a number of things that remain unknown about the woman such as if she holds any living family members, how she came Limsa Lominsa and if she holds any other professions aside from ones that are commonly known, due to having questionable attire and, seen on rare occasions, markings.

=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;background:#9370DB;font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;">Appearance</div> ===

With chocolate colored hair cut in a medium length hairstyle and parts of it falling over her shoulders from the back, bangs side swept to partially cover her right crystal blue orb and holding a petite, slender figure with an ivory skin tone similar to one of a porcelain doll, it's hard not to believe she isn't a midlander woman who hails from Doma. While her looks might be a rare one, she doesn't see herself to be high in the department of beauty compared to other women she has seen.

Yuki isn't one to wear make up, quick to swap out eyeliner and make up brushes for grease and a screw driver. However, she can be seen wearing a few pieces of jewelry; A silver band with a single emerald forged within, a beaten leather collar and silver band which wraps around her neck with a purple gem.

The clothing she wears ranges within color but usually remaining in the same department and items such as a hempen top, kecks made of different material and boots is what she commonly wears, feeling most comfortable in the choice of clothing. She does wear skirts on the occasion but usually with a longer type of top, not use to showing much skin. A common item seen is goggles that usually hang around her neck or on top of her head, used as a hair band.

=== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;background:#9370DB;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">Disposition</div> ===

Yuki is generally a cheerful caring and a rather comedic girl with her beloved smile yet perhaps a bit clumsy at times. She tries to look at the brighter side of things and keep those around her in good spirits, especially her friends, whom mean much to her. While she has only a few close friends, she tries to place their safety, goals and needs before her own. With crystal blue orbs, the left being a few shades darker then the right, keeping from behind her bangs and slender brows, and a smile to help calm others, some may find it hard to remember why they were angry before.

Of course, just like anyone else, she holds her own type of fears and problems but when questioned, she will brush it off and give the person questioning a soft smile. She is one to fight her battles on her own and doesn't like to depend on others, trying to avoid causing them issues even further.

As kind as she is to her friends, she isn't a force to be reckoned with. While it is unknown how skillful she is with weapons so far, she has been seen wielding a bow and throwing knives which rest in a side satchel on her hip. The few times others have seen, they will state that for a clumsy woman, within the heat of the battle, she can be quite graceful and fluid in her movement yet none speak of her skills with her weapons.

While she does wish to remain with her metal works, others will state that she holds quite a singing voice and a keen eye for weapon crafting. She can even be seen tinkering with random items.

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">A Life of Wonder</div> ====
Raised within a large family, Yuki was quick to learn of the basic household care. While she was never an excellent cook, she knew how to take care of her siblings. Of course, most of her siblings were actually by adoption rather than blood but this never passed a thought within her mind; They were her family and that is what mattered to her, all under the same name, 'Kurenai'. There was, however, one child she was related to by blood, her twin brother. Both shared chocolate colored hair within similar styles of medium length and bright, curious orbs of crystal blue that would make one think of the ocean on a clear, sunny day. The large family was raised by two women; A Roegyden Seawolf and a Hyur Midlander. Yet she learned that most of the community was to be considered their family as well, having 'relatives' where ever she turned.

Growing up in Doma, she learned different things such as crafting of metals, which the Kurenai Family was known for. Armor, weapons, tools, you name it and they could make it. One of Yuki's fondest earliest memories was the smell of iron and brimstone. Quite lives were lead and she lived a rather nice one within a community where people knew one another and kept their bonds strong. Not only did she learn metal crafting but also how to use some weapons like bows and daggers.

However, there were times within her life where she knew the difficulties of her quiet community. Beneath the Garlean Empire, she was told to not question the members of the Empire. The community didn't seem to be too fond of the Garleans but they went about their day, following whatever command was needed to be given. They didn't see much of a reason to fight them, not yet at least.

There were groups of unknown people that would travel across the land, taking out different members of the Garlean Empire by assassinations and ambushes within their travels. She would come to idolize them and trained in secret, at least as well as she could with what little knowledge she was able to obtain of them.

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;"> An early memory; Her fist encounter with the Wolf</div> ====
[[File:thewolf.png|left|thumb| <i> "His eyes, which glowed like two pools of gold." </i>]]
The earliest memory Yuki holds is one of confusion yet comfort and the day she came to find her family. She awoken within lands and hills, covered in a blanket of white powder. She wasn't sure where she was, how she got there or even what rested upon the lands. There was something crimson around her as she rested on her hands and knees within her fur coat and gloves. She was lost in a daze, even when a strange figure approached her.

She wasn't sure if the figure was man or beast. He walked on two legs but there was something off about the being. Even she was able to sense that. With the moon shining behind him, she couldn't see his features or even what he wore. Just a large black mass who shifted towards her. She tried to crawl away from the man, searching for whatever words might form but they sounded like mutters of gibberish and felt like her energy was leaving her, her vision growing blurry. Within the moonlight's gleam, she saw the figure give an eerie smile, shadows extending from the already shadowy being, looking like two long arms which he held over his head. A hiss slithered past the man, eyes giving off a chilling violet hue, and sounds like an eerie chuckle of some sort. The being charged forward, opening his mouth wide when...

A person, possibly a few years older than her, stuck a hand outward and grasped the man's head. At first, the figure seemed confused before the young girl saw a mist travel from the figure and into the man's hand, the figure letting out an unforgettable cry of pain. He wiggled and writhed in pain but soon fell motionless to the ground, laying on his side. The man, who had possibly saved her life, turned towards her and extended his other hand towards her.

Even at a young age, she was captured by his eyes which glowed like two pools of gold and when being compared to the moon, shined even brighter. She took his hand gently, the man pulling her forward and she fell into his grasp, closing her eyes. She remained close and felt like she was being picked up and carried off, leaving the now presumed deceased unknown figure.

[[File:FFXIV_CG_Dalamud.png|right|thumb|]]

==== <div style="padding:10px 0px 15px 30px;font-size:14px;color:#000000;font-weight:bold;">The trip to Aleport and a New Life</div> ====

As the years past, she still searching for the man who saved her years ago after he took her to a place to be taken care of and soon adopted by the home owner. The man remained for a few days, wandering the village with the little girl and her new parents, asking the others if they knew of who she was but none could recall.

The man, she remembered, remained wrapped up and all that could be seen was his sun-kissed skin and golden eyes that were striking to anyone who gazed upon them. He obtained a lot of attention from the women, both young and old, within the community. Even from Yuki's siblings and, sometimes, Yuki herself. When she awoken one day, after the man remained there for a few days, she was crestfallen when she saw that he was gone yet there was a box left for her, obtaining a necklace with a violet gem in the middle. It said on a small scrap of paper addressed to Yuki, <i>"I'll always be here."</i> And she wore it everyday.

Yet it was after the Calamity, news traveling quickly around the village that the Garlean's grip was loosening and some thought it might be the perfect time to escape to somewhere else, her family being one of them. Others were leaving before her own family, deciding to wait a bit of it out. She remembered the day so clearly yet wish she didn't. She was down by the shore, trying to catch some fish. While she was good at multiple things, fishing wasn't her area of expertise yet she would continue to try. She was thinking about how good the fish would taste when she got home. Yet when she turned away empty handed, she thought she would purchase some fish from a man who was known for always obtaining the perfect catch. But the closer she got to the village, the stronger the smell of something burning came past her nose and she broke out into a sprint as she felt danger creep within her.

When she came to her village, everything was set aflame. She didn't smell anything that could have possibly been flesh but, to her dismay, she found a few of her scattered 'family' members across the ground. She couldn't see well through the smoke and her eyes stung with tears as she coughed into her hand. She cried out for her brothers, her sisters, her parents, anyone but no one answered back. Blood scattered across the bodies along with burnt clothing. She tried to reach out for some of them but the fire made her jolt back. She wanted to at least give them a proper burial but something else was giving off the feeling of more danger.

When she managed to get home, after continuously tripping, she paused, seeing figures of black mass. She instantly remembered, if only for a brief moment, the figure within her earliest memory. They turned to her and wasted not a second in attacking. At least, this way, she could be with her family whom she thought had passed but something moved passed her. She wasn't sure if it was a gust of wind or an attack. She was preparing herself to feel the sharp pain of some type of weapon yet nothing came. When she looked to the figures that were once approaching her, they were resting upon the ground and someone stood in a black cloak around them.

She watched as the cloak nearly danced with the wind and the person turned towards her.

"We need to get out of here." The voice stated, sounding like a cold, husky tone and rather demanding.

"I'm not leaving without my family." She quickly stated, moving to avoid the man and closer to her home yet she was tugged back. Even though, from what she could see, the man seemed rather thin he held a strong grip and placed her over his shoulder.

"I'm taking you to a boat that will get you somewhere safe." Was all he stated yet she didn't pay attention. She was too busy kicking and calling out to her family. She noticed how the man carried her with one arm and when they approached the docks, they boarded on a boat. He quickly lead her to the bottom and rested her on the ground, beneath some hay.

She couldn't remember much after that. She was a mixture of depression, anger and confusion. She was crying, sometimes yelling at her savior in her fit of emotions, sometimes crying in his arms. He sat there and let her do what she did. She fell asleep on the boat and when she awoken, she was within a bed in an Inn room. She discovered the man placed her within a town called Aleport, the inn keeper making a comment about his 'piercing, golden gaze'. Apparently, he payed for her to stay for a week and, to keep herself busy and her mind off things, she did odd tasks around the area and soon ventured for the City-State Limsa Lominsa, if she had remaining family and the man who saved her long ago.

== <div style="padding:10px 15px; background:#9966CC;font-size:18px;color:#FFFAFA;"><b>Combat</b></div> ==
Even though it is not commonly seen, weapons can be found within her shop that she has made but when questioned, she simply states that they are her own. The weapons range from an axe, bow and arrows and daggers.

When one looks to Yuki on a daily life, they will see a sometimes clumsy woman when she isn't around a burning furnace or hot pokers and certainly wouldn't expect the woman to hold knowledge about using a weapon.

<spoiler>
Since she as younger, Yuki was being trained to use the basic of weapons. One of her mothers were known to be a warrior with a large axe while the other knew how to use a bow and arrow skillfully. When asked, Yuki will casually say that she doesn't hold skills as great as them but if one was to look further for remaining people from her village, they wouldn't help much either..

No, Yuki doesn't seem to know much of weapons but rumors lead others to believe she does possess some type of abilities with weapons and something with a bit of magic involved..</spoiler>

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Feb. 23)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Rinannis Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Free Wing's Office (Lavender Beds Subdivision, Ward 4, Plot 46 - X:9, Y:9) - <i>The headquarters of a staffing company to which Locke is employed.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30) - <i>A common place of meditation.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Central Shroud (The Mirror Planks - X:25, Y:28) - <i>Where he picks up shipments from Ul'dah.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a pair of daggers, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He helps around the coliseum. They treat him like a lackey over there, making him run around like a headless dodo...

<br><br><i>(Names are alphabetical according to color.)</i><br><br></center>

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Rinannis]] :''' (Wife) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' (Adopted son) Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b> </font> <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Deisara Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The older of Lilithium's twin daughters, and the much more brazen of the two. Locke tries his best to not be on Dei's bad side (and to assure her that he has the best intentions), though by proxy of being newly married to her beloved mother, he is in a bit of a deficit with her favor. To no one's surprise, he is very intimidated by her.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b> </font> <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Sarameda Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The younger of Lilithium's twin daughters. Locke tries to be aware of her shy and doe-like hesitance by being extra careful and cordial, though he isn't sure if that's making it better or worse. He does enjoy her company, though he wishes she wouldn't be so apprehensive of him.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' For a long time, Locke was only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. Locke had not seen or heard from him until he reappeared as a potential client in Locke's repair shop nearly a year later. With so much time passed, Locke can't place where he has seen Kale before, but the two seem to get along rather well, and Locke now does most of the repairs for the Goblet's local U'ldahn barracks.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Sitting Ox :''' Locke had only seen Sitting Ox around the society grounds on occasion before he disappeared. He had not seen him again until an incident within the Shroud. Locke hopes to be on better terms with him in the future.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Feb. 23)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a pair of daggers, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He helps around the coliseum. They treat him like a lackey over there, making him run around like a headless dodo... I don't think I've ever seen him unhappy about it, though. Guess he should feel lucky to get a job in Ul'dah so quickly!" - Jealous Juggernaut, merchant on Hustings Strip
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "I always see him sitting alone. I don't think he's made very many friends since he moved to the city. Not sure why." - Rianne, merchant on Emerald Avenue

<b><div style="padding:10px 25px; background: #F37E1D;">◢ Moderate Rumors (Difficult to overhear)</div></b>
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "Mm? I think I saw 'im at the Quicksand once. Had a drink like everyone else, but he put somethin' strange in it. Some kind o' white vial. I dunno, maybe 'tis a weird northern thing they do." - Silver Nettle, passerby on Ruby Road Exchange
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I heard he got exiled from his hometown and traveled all the way here to Ul'dah. What do you think he did to deserve that? It's like I always said, you can never trust the nice ones." - Unknown gossiper on Pearl Lane
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I saw him checking something with his mammet. He's got it programmed to keep track of... aether? Or whatsit? I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to do." - Memenugu, resident of Fesca's Wash

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Rinannis]] :''' (Wife) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' (Adopted son) Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b> </font> <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Deisara Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The older of Lilithium's twin daughters, and the much more brazen of the two. Locke tries his best to not be on Dei's bad side (and to assure her that he has the best intentions), though by proxy of being newly married to her beloved mother, he is in a bit of a deficit with her favor. To no one's surprise, he is very intimidated by her.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b> </font> <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Sarameda Silverlark]] :''' (Step-daughter) The younger of Lilithium's twin daughters. Locke tries to be aware of her shy and doe-like hesitance by being extra careful and cordial, though he isn't sure if that's making it better or worse. He does enjoy her company, though he wishes she wouldn't be so apprehensive of him.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' For a long time, Locke was only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. Locke had not seen or heard from him until he reappeared as a potential client in Locke's repair shop nearly a year later. With so much time passed, Locke can't place where he has seen Kale before, but the two seem to get along rather well, and Locke now does most of the repairs for the Goblet's local U'ldahn barracks.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Sitting Ox :''' Locke had only seen Sitting Ox around the society grounds on occasion before he disappeared. He had not seen him again until an incident within the Shroud. Locke hopes to be on better terms with him in the future.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Feb. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "Yeah, Locke! I've met him a few times. He couldn't remember my name even once. I told him it was fine, but he still felt terrible for it." - Wolken, assistant at the Coliseum
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He helps around the coliseum. They treat him like a lackey over there, making him run around like a headless dodo... I don't think I've ever seen him unhappy about it, though. Guess he should feel lucky to get a job in Ul'dah so quickly!" - Jealous Juggernaut, merchant on Hustings Strip
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "I always see him sitting alone. I don't think he's made very many friends since he moved to the city. Not sure why." - Rianne, merchant on Emerald Avenue

<b><div style="padding:10px 25px; background: #F37E1D;">◢ Moderate Rumors (Difficult to overhear)</div></b>
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "Mm? I think I saw 'im at the Quicksand once. Had a drink like everyone else, but he put somethin' strange in it. Some kind o' white vial. I dunno, maybe 'tis a weird northern thing they do." - Silver Nettle, passerby on Ruby Road Exchange
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I heard he got exiled from his hometown and traveled all the way here to Ul'dah. What do you think he did to deserve that? It's like I always said, you can never trust the nice ones." - Unknown gossiper on Pearl Lane
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I saw him checking something with his mammet. He's got it programmed to keep track of... aether? Or whatsit? I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to do." - Memenugu, resident of Fesca's Wash

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' (Adopted son) Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Feb. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "Yeah, Locke! I've met him a few times. He couldn't remember my name even once. I told him it was fine, but he still felt terrible for it." - Wolken, assistant at the Coliseum
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He helps around the coliseum. They treat him like a lackey over there, making him run around like a headless dodo... I don't think I've ever seen him unhappy about it, though. Guess he should feel lucky to get a job in Ul'dah so quickly!" - Jealous Juggernaut, merchant on Hustings Strip
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "I always see him sitting alone. I don't think he's made very many friends since he moved to the city. Not sure why." - Rianne, merchant on Emerald Avenue

: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I heard he got exiled from his hometown and traveled all the way here to Ul'dah. What do you think he did to deserve that? It's like I always said, you can never trust the nice ones." - Unknown gossiper on Pearl Lane
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I saw him checking something with his mammet. He's got it programmed to keep track of... aether? Or whatsit? I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to do." - Memenugu, resident of Fesca's Wash

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Gridania :''' Before Locke resided in Ul'dah, someone could have spotted him passing through Gridania with a green-haired Lalafell. They only stayed in the city long enough to resupply and rest before traveling south to Thanalan.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Lavender Beds, Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''. Locke has participated in several missions and odd jobs and can seen around Eorzea alongside several of its members. He may also be spotted at the company's house in Lavender Beds, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Costa del Sol :''' Thanks to the Free Wing Society's outreach, Locke has made trips to Costa del Sol for several beach parties and fundraisers. He may have been seen participating in their Date Auction or annual Fish Fry.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Feb. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

<div style="padding:10px 25px; background: #90AB76;">◢ Common Rumors (Easy to overhear)</div></b>

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He helps around the coliseum. They treat him like a lackey over there, making him run around like a headless dodo... I don't think I've ever seen him unhappy about it, though. Guess he should feel lucky to get a job in Ul'dah so quickly!" - Jealous Juggernaut, merchant on Hustings Strip
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "I always see him sitting alone. I don't think he's made very many friends since he moved to the city. Not sure why." - Rianne, merchant on Emerald Avenue

: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I heard he got exiled from his hometown and traveled all the way here to Ul'dah. What do you think he did to deserve that? It's like I always said, you can never trust the nice ones." - Unknown gossiper on Pearl Lane
: <font style="color:#F37E1D;" size="3">►</font> "I saw him checking something with his mammet. He's got it programmed to keep track of... aether? Or whatsit? I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to do." - Memenugu, resident of Fesca's Wash

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up, and they slowly became more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her expanded, even daring to show her affection in the public eye. The two have recently eloped, accompanied by Adokenai, though they plan to have a ceremony at a later date!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''Coraliza Velia :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Rinannis :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, and now the son of Locke, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After the child was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the he is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[V'lanya Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman. Recently, Locke witnessed her behave selflessly, throwing herself into danger to protect others in the Society when she could have turned against them. He now believes that, regardless of her dark demeanor, there is quite a bit of good in her.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Lavender Beds, Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''. Locke has participated in several missions and odd jobs and can seen around Eorzea alongside several of its members. He may also be spotted at the company's house in Lavender Beds, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At 6 fulms 4 ilms, Orrian stands quite short for an Elezen. He buries his lithe frame beneath heavy robes. His skin bears the typical greyed shade of a Duskwight, and sharp green eyes peer beneath long black hair that rests on his shoulders.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Occasionally, a small rat peeks out from one of the many pockets of Orrian's robes. This is Jix, a pet of his.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cynical:</b> He would say he's being "realistic" or "honest." Orrian is skeptical of everyone and everything until proven otherwise.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Introverted:</b> Orrian hates crowds and smalltalk. Given enough time, he will likely end up saying something awkward or insensitive.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cryptic:</b> He sometimes speaks without proper context, as if his words have only said half of what his mind is thinking. He has a strangely poetic side that enjoys dramatic flair and dark philosophies.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Unenthused:</b> He cares about little else except his own small area of interest. He doesn't try to hide this either, visibly expressing annoyance if he is bothered.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Perfectionist:</b> He obsesses with the perfection of his craft. He does not want to be good, he wants to be the best, no matter what (or who) gets in his way.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Aetherial Prodigy:</b>Orrian delves into the aetheric arts head first, leaving no stone unturned, even participating in things that may be considered unethical. His insatiable curiosity, obsessive study, and natural skill have resulted in one very powerful thaumaturge.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Physically Weak:</b> Being a bit of a shut-in hasn't done much for Orrian's physical fitness. In a fight without magic, the best he can do is run (and thanks to Iona's escapades, he can run quite far).

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Pre-Calamity</div>====
: Born in Gridania proper, Orrian is the product of the city's blatant racism toward Duskwights. As a child, small and skinny even for an Elezen, the other children would often heckle and bully him. More than once, Orrian would return home with more cuts and bruises than when he had left. Orrian learned to enjoy solitude and escape into books. Tales of adventure , danger, and treasure filled his days, and he longed for a chance to have an adventure all his own.

: One day, a Padjal approached him and gave him a book that would forge him into his present self: a book about magic. The Padjal must have sensed something in Orrian that the child could not see in himself, for he wordlessly passed the tome to him while the scrawny child nestled behind a bush with one of his tales, trying to remain unseen from all the other children.

: The Padjal simply smiled and walked away. Orrian popped out of the bush, curious as to where the stranger had come from, and was instantly seen by several children. He took a step back and turned to run as one of them began to shout. The exact phrase lost itself to the wind, but it was no doubt something that would rouse the children to chase him. Despite Orrian's small stature, he could run much faster than the most of the other children. But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

: "Stupids!" she taunted, grinning to herself and sticking her tongue out as they fled.

: Orrian rubbed his head and sat up, blinking at the Miqo'te as she picked up his books. She handed them to him with a grin. Orrian, afraid of being punched again, inched away and looked down, squeezing his eyes shut.

: "You're weird," the girl laughed.

: "..."

: "I'm Iona!" she said, still holding the books out for him.

: Orrian dared not raise his head. His words dropped uselessly to the ground as he mumbled something.

: "Eh?" she tilted her head, her mouth twisted in confusion. "Come again?"

: "Orrian," he repeated a little louder, lifting himself to his feet and snatching his books. He held them tightly to his chest and kept his eyes downward.

: "I seen ya around. Get picked on a lot?"

: "..."

: Iona beamed. His silence was a good enough answer enough for her. "Well not anymore! Anyone who messes with ya is gonna get a piece 'o my fist! In the face!"

: After that moment, the two became fast friends, and one was rarely seen without the other. And yet, somehow, they still followed very different paths. While Iona grew even more athletic and outgoing, Orrian remained quiet and fragile.

: Orrian had consumed every word from the book on magic given to him. His parents saw his interest, and when he was nearing 10, sent him to E-Sumi-Yan to judge Orrian's ability. Perhaps he could be trained in the ways of conjury. Perhaps he could find a place in Gridania...

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Arrzaneth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian spent much of his time at the Ossuary. He visited areas of particular interest on occasion, but most times could only be coerced to venture out by Iona. Together, they affiliated themselves with the Flame Yataghans, a military force stationed in Ul'dah, though the relationship was short-lived before Orrian went his own way.

: With the promise of privacy that the Ossuary could not provide, Orrian joined the Free Wing Society in exchange for his services. They provided him a private chamber, which he keeps locked and sealed at all times. He rarely leaves.

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "Orrian's a pretty quiet fellow, and there's somethin' ... I dunno, <i>uneasy</i> about him. Just a gut feeling, I guess."

: <font style="color:#D83018;" size="3">►</font> "Orrian... He's obsessed. A force drives him like something I've never seen. I don't think he knows his limits...or he doesn't care.

: <font style="color:#aac5b4;" size="3">►</font> "Master Orrian? ..Mm.. Not much I can say for now. But he is interested in strange things. But everyone needs to have some sort of interest, even if they are strange. And even if I don't know him just yet.. I respect him.. Which is something I rarely do.. He reminds me of someone dear." - [[Mizore Dorne]]
: <font style="color:#aac5b4;" size="3">►</font> "One of my employees, and perhaps the most introverted. Of course, there's nothing wrong with that." - [[Lilithium Altair]]

But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

: "Stupids!" she taunted, grinning to herself and sticking her tongue out as they fled.

: Orrian rubbed his head and sat up, blinking at the Miqo'te as she picked up his books. She handed them to him with a grin. Orrian, afraid of being punched again, inched away and looked down, squeezing his eyes shut.

: "You're weird," the girl laughed.

: "..."

: "I'm Iona!" she said, still holding the books out for him.

: Orrian dared not raise his head. His words dropped uselessly to the ground as he mumbled something.

: "Eh?" she tilted her head, her mouth twisted in confusion. "Come again?"

: "Orrian," he repeated a little louder, lifting himself to his feet and snatching his books. He held them tightly to his chest and kept his eyes downward.

: "I seen ya around. Get picked on a lot?"

: "..."

: Iona beamed. His silence was a good enough answer enough for her. "Well not anymore! Anyone who messes with ya is gonna get a piece 'o my fist! In the face!"

: After that moment, the two became fast friends, and one was rarely seen without the other. And yet, somehow, they still followed very different paths. While Iona grew even more athletic and outgoing, Orrian remained quiet and fragile.

: Orrian had consumed every word from the book on magic given to him. His parents saw his interest, and when he was nearing 10, sent him to E-Sumi-Yan to judge Orrian's ability. Perhaps he could be trained in the ways of conjury. Perhaps he could find a place in Gridania...

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Arrzaneth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian still spends most of his time at the Ossuary. He may visit an area of particular interest on occasion, but most times can only be coerced to venture out by Iona.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At 6 fulms 4 ilms, Orrian stands quite short for an Elezen. He buries his lithe frame beneath heavy robes. His skin bears the typical greyed shade of a Duskwight, and sharp green eyes peer beneath long black hair that rests on his shoulders.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Occasionally, a small rat peeks out from one of the many pockets of Orrian's robes. This is Jix, a pet of his.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cynical:</b> He would say he's being "realistic" or "honest." Orrian is skeptical of everyone and everything until proven otherwise.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Introverted:</b> Orrian hates crowds and smalltalk. Given enough time, he will likely end up saying something awkward or insensitive.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cryptic:</b> He sometimes speaks without proper context, as if his words have only said half of what his mind is thinking. He has a strangely poetic side that enjoys dramatic flair and dark philosophies.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Unenthused:</b> He cares about little else except his own small area of interest. He doesn't try to hide this either, visibly expressing annoyance if he is bothered.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Perfectionist:</b> He obsesses with the perfection of his craft. He does not want to be good, he wants to be the best, no matter what (or who) gets in his way.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Ul'dah - Steps of Nald (Arrzaneth Ossuary - X:6, Y:13)

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Aetherial Prodigy:</b>Orrian delves into the aetheric arts head first, leaving no stone unturned, even participating in things that may be considered unethical. His insatiable curiosity, obsessive study, and natural skill have resulted in one very powerful thaumaturge.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Physically Weak:</b> Being a bit of a shut-in hasn't done much for Orrian's physical fitness. In a fight without magic, the best he can do is run (and thanks to Iona's escapades, he can run quite far).

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Pre-Calamity</div>====
: Born in Gridania proper, Orrian is the product of the city's blatant racism toward Duskwights. As a child, small and skinny even for an Elezen, the other children would often heckle and bully him. More than once, Orrian would return home with more cuts and bruises than when he had left. Orrian learned to enjoy solitude and escape into books. Tales of adventure , danger, and treasure filled his days, and he longed for a chance to have an adventure all his own.

: One day, a Padjal approached him and gave him a book that would forge him into his present self: a book about magic. The Padjal must have sensed something in Orrian that the child could not see in himself, for he wordlessly passed the tome to him while the scrawny child nestled behind a bush with one of his tales, trying to remain unseen from all the other children.

: The Padjal simply smiled and walked away. Orrian popped out of the bush, curious as to where the stranger had come from, and was instantly seen by several children. He took a step back and turned to run as one of them began to shout. The exact phrase lost itself to the wind, but it was no doubt something that would rouse the children to chase him. Despite Orrian's small stature, he could run much faster than the most of the other children. But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Jan. 15)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Rinannis Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Free Wing's Office (Lavender Beds Subdivision, Ward 4, Plot 46 - X:9, Y:9) - <i>The headquarters of a staffing company to which Locke is employed.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30) - <i>A common place of meditation.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Central Shroud (The Mirror Planks - X:25, Y:28) - <i>Where he picks up shipments from Ul'dah.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' (aka [[V'lanya Mei]]) A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

He may also be spotted at the company's house in Lavender Beds, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

'''Lilithium Altair (Lil-ith-ium Ah-l-tair) '''is a older Hyur midlander who is often seen in and around Ul'dah and various other parts of Eorzea. Her maternal nature and affectionate disposition leaves her well liked by most who come across her. Widowed three years before the Calamity and with her three children all grown and out of the house as of roughly two years ago, Lili finds that she's able to focus on herself and her own happiness for the first time since her teens. It's left her with many doorways of oppurtunity to choose from, some full of light and adventure while others harbor a darker purpose...

Recently, she has become the owner of a staffing company known as the Free Wing Society and adopted a little boy named Adokenai. On top of that, she has opened her heart that led to avenues she never dared dream were possible, and has been pursuing various interests that range from people to books to trying her hand at the aetheric arts.

'''Note: Lili is able to see the aether of various individuals she meets. They manifest as light and colors, and I will sometimes whisper people OOC to determine what their aether is like so Lili can react or adjust accordingly.'''

=== <span class="mw-headline" id="Appearance">Appearance </span><br/> ===

<span class="mw-headline">Standing at 5 fulm and 4 ilm, Lili is used to seeing the world from the shorter side of things. She used to wear her pale blonde hair long and nearly to her elbows, but has since dyed it a darker blonde that she intends to keep permanent. Her eyes are very light green with a silvery cast to the color to give it an unique, shimmering quality. While her features deceive others of her true age, she bares what marks she has with pride: Some crows feet at the corner of her eyes that show when she laughs, and similar lines at the corner of her lips that only start to show when she is smiling broadly. </span>Having bared three children (two of which were twins), she was left with rather shapely hips and added curves that she had not possessed in her youth. One of the physical features most noticed by some who meet Lili is her rather large bust despite her small size. It usually causes her a myriad of problems, as some of her shorter Miqo'te friends and Lalafell companions sometimes get suffocated when she hugs them. The rest of her is well toned from the muscle and strength it takes to wield her axe and fist weapons, and sun kissed from her years by the shores of Limsa or the sands of Ul'dah.

=== <span class="mw-headline" id="Behavior">Behavior</span> ===

Having gotten pregnant at fourteen and raising or looking after her children and those of others left Lili with a maternal nature that has been driven down to the core of her very being. She tends to look out for those around her, especially those that she feels a soft spot for, or those around her children's age (teens to early twenties range). Though this maternal drive of hers doesn't make her a pushover in the least, as it is possible to ignite her ire with the right buttons being pushed. Over all, she's calm and even tempered and usually the voice of reason for those around her. Ever one to play devil's advocate. She has a surprisingly emotional and sensitive side that only a handful of people have been able to witness.

<span class="mw-headline">Lili hasn't had much of a need to show her skills publically, but in the few times she's sparred with friends she's shown a great aptitude for a martial arts style of combat. Her fists, being her primary weapon, are usually not the thing to worry</span> about. They sometimes serve as a mere distraction for her rather powerful legs to catch someone off guard. When she does happen to use her axe, it's an interesting sight since some of the weaponry are almost as big as she is. Yet she yields them with ease, using all her force with each blow. She fights with a certain level of honor, though if the situation should call for it she won't be afraid to play dirty.

Always one for trying and learning new things, Lili spends much of her idle time active in one way or another. If she's not relaxing in the Quicksand or the occasional visit to the Drowning Wench, she'll be home or out and about doing some kind of activity or socializing.

After no body being found over the last near decade he's been gone, everyone has safely assumed he is dead and Lili no longer mourned her first and only true love. However, during a series of events to give Kao a new body they came across a Garlean named Velstraz who was used as Kao's new host body. After the metaphorical smoke cleared, it was revealed to actually have been Ghislan who now was of body and mind with Lili's friend and employee. She steps awkwardly around the Highlander, still in shock and unsure how to take the revelation.

Since meeting, Lili had adopted the little boy as her own. He even calls her 'Mom' regularly, and comes running to her whenever he sees her. Usually when seen together, the little boy is being held by his new mother or playing around some where near by.</span>

Abandoned on a supply ship, no one knows her tribal origin and could never relocate birth parents. Rahsha and Lili grew apart after Lili left home, and now the two rarely see one another. A short time ago she learned what hand Rahsha had to play in the death of their parents, and while it's helped Lili understand her adopted sister more, it still hasn't mended the bridge between them.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''Andromeda and Reiko Altair (deceased): Lili's parents died shortly after the twins were born in a simple but tragic fire. Both were botanists who were unmatched in their knowledge of the land and its bountiful treasures.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Aya Foxheart]]: The Quicksand's favorite barmaid, Lili worked alongside C'kayah to help Aya with some personal problems, and offered the woman multiple safe places to hide away at should she had needed it. Afterwards, she hasn't seen much of her, and still finds her charming enough.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Azeiox Nelles]]: An elezen Lili met one day at the Quicksand who always seems to be looking out for her son and letting him right on his shoulder without batting an eye. Intimidating at first, she later found his more quiet nature to be comforting and enjoys spending time with him when she can. The nature of their relationship to outsiders appears friendly though he has since left the Society.

<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>[[Chokho Viqqoh]]: A Keeper woman Lili met at the fishfry event the Society put on, she flirted rather heavily with Lili and even poured a cup of water on her to see her wet in her bikkini. They met up later when they found out they were neighbors, and have started a comfortable friendship. Chokho has made her attraction known, and Lili returned the sentiment. Their lives keep them busy and often apart, though they make time to spend with one another when they can. With the passage of weeks and months Lili's affections have softened, though she still wonders how the miqo'te woman is doing.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[C'kayah Tia]]: A Miqo'te who once supplied Lili with alchemical materials she was having a hard time acquiring, he was smitten with her from the start and she rejected his advances over and over again. Instead, teasing him with playful retorts and equally playful skepticism. They ended up being around one another off and on as time went on, and over time Lili came to see that his feelings and gestures were indeed sincere and affectionate by his repeat efforts to prove such. They were mated and even engaged for a time, and though the details of their separation are unclear Lili doesn't seem to regard the male with any ill will though you certainly won't find her seeking him out. Recently with the kidnapping of her adopted son [[Adokenai Altair]] she has turned her sights to her almost-husband for aid, which C'kayah has given.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Clover Blake]]: One of the Society's neighbors that lives just up the hill, Lili met the young woman in passing via [[Xydane Vale]]. She hasn't seen her since, but her shyness was endearing.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3"><font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font></font>''[[Darturu Torlan]]</span>: Darturu and Lili were once mated, but his co-creation of the Blacktalon Vanguard made balancing work and a relationship difficult. The two eventually decided to part ways, still caring for one another, but now left to their own devices. As time has passed and seeing less and less of him, her feelings had softened to the point where romance is no longer something she entertains with the Miqo'te. They have not seen one another since she left the Vanguard, and she seems to have no desire to change that.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''[[Dheina Tayuun]]: A young Miqo'te she met when coming back to Ul'dah via her previous mate, Darturu. They keep in touch sporadically, and have a pleasant friendship.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[Kagewoe Erasus]]: Fiance of Nymira's. While she is not close to the male, she is confident in his abilities to help her and Nym keep everyone in line and together. Recent events with the Society had the two walking on thin ice around one another, but things seemed to lead to a much more neutral standing before finally becoming more friendly before him and his fiance left to pursue work opportunities elsewhere.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''[[Kal Numara]]</span>: A Highlander woman who is also a friend of Lili's. Usually teasing her, and constantly referring to her as 'Mama' or 'Mama Lili'. Such teasings are usually met with Lili retaliating (playfully so).

[[Kenthy Pennyfeather|<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>Kenthy Pennyfeather]]: A miqo'te Lili met through her interactions with C'kayah and the Morbolvines, she's looked to the woman as a casual friend despite all of their differences and previous disputes. She was to C'kayah what Kaiten was to Lili, and during a walk through the Mists Lili found a placard claiming to be Kenthy and C'kayah's house and it caused an odd assortment of mixed feelings in her. She's avoided seeing her as a product of the discovery, at least for now.

[[Kaiten Skyborn]]: If asked who this person is or about him, she'd blink at you and look utterly puzzled. "...Who?"

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''[[Kaohastraal Aeseroix]]:A very large roe man that was introduced to Lili via T'shina at the fish fry event. His Garlean name took her aback at first, but when they started talking he eased her mind and explained some of his story. He admitted to having an interest in her, but she preferred to be friends over anything. After he joined the Free Wing Society, she began helping him with matters regarding his 'health', which led to a shocking turn of events...(See Family section above as "Ghislan Nightwing")

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Katiti Kati]]: Lili met this Lalafell around the time she met Ado, who served alongside Toff as one of the Lalachild's unofficial guardians. She eventually joined the Society, being hired as Ado's official teacher. Lili trusts her judgement, but worries with how much she stresses over things all the time.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[Kolhi'to Embhre]]: Creator of the Blacktalon Vanguard and Lili's former employer, Lili has known Kol for quite some time. However, they seem neither friendly nor hostile. Instead only polite when meeting or speaking in passing. More often then not Kol's grumpy attitude tends to irk Lili even if she may not always show it.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Leon Maxwell]]: A young boy Lili met through Tenha'a, she's done her best to look out for his well being and educate him on matters he inquires about, such as love. Knowing a few tidbits about his current health and situation, she's been doing some research into what can possibly be done to help him. Between her work in the Society and his involvements in other matters, assisting him hasn't been as large of a priority. Recently, she learned that he found a cure which brought her happiness to know that perhaps now he could live a long and healthy life.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Liandri Mei]]: One of Lili's employees and a spunky redheaded miqo'te who likes to drink. While dabbling in things Void related, Lili tries her best to protect the woman and her secrets from behind the scenes.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Liliana Nazareth]]: A young mother who looks like Lili from bust size to hair color to profile and even eyes (save the color). While their similarities have gotten the two confused for one another in the past, the news of her 'death' has led Lili to trying to find answers when she can.

<font style="color:#F02311" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>[[Locke Rinannis]]: She had seen this man when he was around one of the free company houses next to Blacktalon, though never spoke to him or approached him. Later, she heard he was looking for work and offered him a job at the Society. He's one of her most quiet employees, and as a result she actively tries to drag him around the others and be social. The more time Lili has spent with him the more affectionate she had become, as well as trusting of him. He's shared many secrets with her, all of which she keeps to herself. Their relationship has gradually grown out of the public eye, but it doesn't seem to affect their business relationship. Now a days, they are openly affectionate with one another even around other people and Lili seems quite smitten with the younger blonde. Recently he has proposed and the two are now engaged.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''[[Mouse Wytchwood]]: A miqo'te girl with odd origins and green hair, Lili has always regarded the girl with motherly concern and attention. From watching her from afar or explaining terms and concepts she does not easily grasp or helping with her hair. She knows enough of Mouse's back story to keep her eye on the girl when she's able to, and to try and guide harm out of her way.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Nymira Valeroyant]]: Once a Society member, Nymira also helped Lili look after its affairs and members, though she hasn't seen or heard from the woman since her and Kage left to work else where.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''[[Rock Shattermountain]]: A Highlander Lili has recently met when helping with the Pumpkin Cafe opening night. He also is a friend of her adopted son, Ado. After a night out together, he confessed to feelings of a more romantic nature, and the two have been slowly getting to know one another from there. He is also the one that gave her a little pet fawn whom she affectionately calls Dot. As their interractions have progressed, as well as his hints and confessions to seeing Lili as a prospective wife, it left her flattered by his intense emotions. While she still cares for him, they have drifted into more of an easy friendship.

<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[Tendha'a Rendha]]: A male Miqo'te whom Lili met shortly after the creation of the Vanguard. The two quickly became friends and confidants, and he is the mate of T'shina Vashka. Since Lili and C'kayah started seeing one another, neither of the two have spoken much and he never said a word when he officially left the Society with T'shina and a few others. Even after C'kayah stopped being a regular part of Lili's life, Lili shows no interest in rekindling a friendship with Tendha'a or his related associates.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Thrandis Dale]]: Having met outside of the Quicksand, Thrandis approached Lili with the desire to have one of the freshly baked rolls she happened to have in a basket on her person. He followed her to the lane, where they fed some of the orphans and chatted. Since then they meet up now and again for pleasantries and conversation, with Lili recently agreeing to teach Thrandis how to read and write, which she never got to fulfill before his untimely demise.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Titor Jaraba]]: An alchemist that Lili has seen around off and on through the work they both do helping those in Ul'dah with their regents and tonics. While not close, Lili has recently come to him about helping with research towards a cure for the illness her twin daughters share. The revelation of him sharing a similar condition has her feeling more at ease that he is going to assist, and plans to help him all she can.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[Toff Vaughn]]: One of Ado's original guardians, Lili went to Toff and Katiti before she formally adopted Ado. While she respects the man, his childish bouts of attitude test the limits of her temper, including with how he has grown the habit lately of flirting with taken women. Whether he seems to know they're taken or not.

''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[Togy Brandmakt]]: A previous lover, the two seperated due to Togy's wanderings and traveling keeping them apart moreso then together. While not on bad terms, his unstable nature and her mixed responses to his off days makes their interractions a hit-or-miss.

<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[T'shina Vashka]]: A young woman Lili regards as a friend, the interactions Lili has had with C'kayah had strained their relationship. Afterwards, the two didn't speak for a while and had one rather large argument that Tenha'a even became part that drove Lili away emotionally. Things never fully recovered after that, and when finding out that Lili and C'kayah were still together, she resigned from the Society.

<font style="color:#8f8377" size="3">●</font>[[U'zhan Tia]]: A Miqo'te that Lili met due to his associations with T'shina, he asked Lili to go adventuring with him. Shortly afterwards, he stopped speaking with her. Having gotten the impression he was very much like the womanizing 'Nunh' types he claimed to dislike so much, Lili has had very little desire to rekindle a friendship. His interaction with members of her Society did not help his case and now she more or less ignores his existance.

<span class="mw-headline">''<font style="color:#9EC60B" size="3">●</font>''</span>[[Xydane Vale]]:A mysterious man Lili only met once in passing at the Botanist Guild. He was looking for a young woman ([[Clover Blake]]) and asked Lili to give her a bouquet of flowers should she ever find her. She ended up coming across him and Clover at random right in front of her house where the flowers were then delivered and food was given to them both. She finds him to be friendly enough, though a little sad.

<font style="color:#C24640" size="3">●</font>[[Zaiaku Kurai]]: Lili didn't think much of the man when they first met. But the moons worth of on again off again mind games and his attitude and actions against her son have made her positively hostile. It even led to a battle in which Zaiaku yielded and promised to leave Ado be. However, to this day she'd rather feed him to the dodos then look upon him longer then needed. This has only grown since he kidnapped her son Ado in exchange for her property and hand in marriage, though the little boy has since been returned safely to her and the marriage he desired never happened.

=== <span class="mw-headline" id="1548-1565_Childhood.2Fadolescence">1544-1559 Childhood/adolescence </span><br/> ===

Born an only child, Lili had a comfortable life with her parents living in Ul'dah. Taking frequent trips to the countryside and the desert to look for new herbs and roots and other things that were in demand or that her parents needed to discover. They met a variety of people and went a variety places before Lili even learned how to walk, though their home territory was always Ul'dah and the Thanalans. Around the time Lili was just turning five, her parents decided to relocate to La Noscea and start maping and surveying the lush island terrain. While on the cargo ship to Limsa Lominsa, the Altairs discovered a tiny bundle that was wailing and screaming and covered in bloodied rags. A newborn Miqo'te child, still covered in the blood of labor pains, though with no mother in sight. No one on the ship knew where she came from, and eventually Lili's parents made her part of the family and named her Rahsha.

Time passed easily in La Noscea. Lili treasured little Rahsha as if she was a blood sister. The tail and ears were only a cute little addition Lili liked to play with. Around the time she was eight and Rahsha was barely three, a family moved in nearby from Ala Mhigo with a single child of their own. A dark skinned, blonde haired, red eyed little prankster of a boy named Ghislan Nightwing. He was immidiately taken with Lili, even as a young boy, and showed it in his typical fashion of flipping her skirts, pulling on her head, and throwing sand and mud balls at he face. This usually earned him retaliation of equal brutality by Lili, with assistance from little Rahsha while their parents looked on with affection and amusement.

The years passed without incident. The comings and goings of the outside world seemed far away from Lili. Her life consisted of her family and Ghislan, and it seemed to be all she needed. As Ghislan and Lili got older, they went from children to friends, and before long, they were fawning over one another in the typical girlish and boyish fashions. Shortly after Lili's fourteenth birthday gathering, their love for one another was too much to be contained (in their young eyes at least). Following their coupling, Lili realized she was pregnant, and the two quickly escaped into the night to find the closest Priestess of Menphina to bless a union between them. Their elopement was received with a measure of shock and surprise that was quickly welcomed by all, save for Rahsha. Feeling that her sister abandoned her, the little Miqo'te never quite outgrew such feelings.

And thus began the life of Mrs. Lilithium Nightwing.

=== <span class="mw-headline" id="1565-1572_The_carefree_life">1559-1569 Lilithium Amal'thea Nightwing </span><br/> ===

The married life was one Lili slipped into with ease. Shortly after turning fifteen summers, she gave birth to Khavan Amadeus Nightwing, who looked more like his father then anything else. Despite being young, they were hard working with Lili spending the majority of her time as a house wife taking care of their son with the aide of both of their parents. While Rahsha was loving to a degree to Khavan, she was still distant with her sister. It was something that, while Lili mourned for the lack of emotion she got from her, she couldn't focus on too deeply and still provide the needed care for her family.

During the first few years of their marriage, Ghislan continued to grow. Taller and taller and taller, reaching well past the average height for a Highlander. While it certainly got attention in a crowd and delighted Lili as well, it caught the eye of a few mercenary groups who saw great potential. Soon, he was recruited and cycled through a few companies who paid well and the work was mostly geared towards training. It brought in enough profit that Lili and Ghislan built their family home from the ground up. A beautiful, pale stoned cottage melded with shells from the nearby shore.

Throwing a grand celebration with friends to honor the new homestead, everyone (even Lili) drank in good cheer. One man amoungst them, however, took advantage of the situation. A long time friend of the couples' who joined Ghislan as a healer in some of his fights and jobs, his poor health would be the death of him soon and they all knew it. Amore Silverlark was his name, and he was the only living member of his family. Determined to not leave this world without carrying out his family name, he guided a very intoxicated Lili to a back room to take advantage, and succeeded with getting her pregnant. Overcome by guilt, he confessed to Ghislan who nearly killed him on the spot were it not for Lili intervening. Barely able to let it pass, Ghislan agreed to curb his animosity while it was discussed on what to do. A few weeks later, Amore succumbed to his illness and passed away, leaving Lili and Ghislan with two choices: Keep the illegitimate children, or find a way to terminate the pregnancy.

Months later, Deisarameda and Sarameda Silverlark were born. In honor of Amore and Ghislan's more happy history together, they kept the surname and Ghislan raised them as his own. Sadly, they inherited their father's illness and were in poor health as children and even into their now adult life.

Shortly after the girls were born, Lili's parents died abruptly in a house fire. Mere days later, Rahsha disappeared with what little belongings she covered from the fire. To this day, Lili has rarely seen sight of her adopted sister and has heard rumors that she retreated to the Shroud to perhaps find clues to her true family.

The years passed without incident. Ghislan put aside his mercenary life to join the military efforts around La Noscea and even beyond. During one particular assignment he was doing freelance for the Immortal Flames, they were attacked by Garleans in which Ghislan was captured and taken away. There was never a body recovered, and Lili was wracked by grief for a number of years. Even with her children there as support, it slowly became accepted that Ghislan was likely dead and never returning. Her soulmate, the love of her life, the father of her children, was gone. There was no more to be done.

And so, life went on.

=== <span class="mw-headline" id="1572.2F0-Present_Calamity">1569/0-Present Calamity </span><br/> ===

Lili ended up retaking her maiden name of Altair a few years after Ghislan passed, not feeling right baring the name of her dead husband. The day of the Calamity, Lili and her three children visited the empty grave on a little cliff over looking the sea that was dedicated to Ghislan. All four watched in complete horror as the world around them was torn to bits and land and buildings became decimated. Thankfully, their home remained intact and they suffered no severe losses. Lili focused more on her alchemical talents to help locals and those in the cities while making a little extra money for herself and her family. Within the last two years, her children grew up into beautiful, capable young adults. All three starting to go their own ways to build their new lives. It left Lili in an interesting position: After almost two decades of being married, being widowed, raising children...she now had time to focus on herself. A thrilling but frightening prospect she still has difficulty comprehending to this day.

Lili spent the first few months trying to find hobbies. Interests. Even dabbling in the company of courtesans to appease some of the loneliness seeped into her heart. Money that Ghislan left behind in his passing was enough to sustain her day-to-day life, but she still felt empty. Unfulfilled. Without her soulmate, she began to wonder if she'd eventually die of a broken heart the way some songbirds did when their mates passed. During a trip out by Moraby, Lili came across a Miqo'te man named [[Kolhi'to Embhre]] who passed along a possible business proposition at his free company, Black Sun Trading. Intrigued, Lili followed through on the matter and found employment working for the Silverstars, Matthias and Althena. It gave her a new purpose and new motivation, and during that time she met and had a brief coupling with one of her coworkers named [[Togy Brandmakt]]. While things didn't last, it opened a door for her she never thought she'd try again: Dating.

Work for Lili in Black Sun was usually fairly slow, with the occasional incident breaking up the monotony of each daily routine. But the people were interesting, and many interesting occurrences happened in the Bismarck from laughter to violence. Later, it was announced that the trading company would become an academy (Black Sun Academy), and Lili became the school receptionist. She kept an eye when she could on some of the more naive members and prospective students, including a young woman named [[Mouse Wytchwood]]. Through an old lover, Lili learned of Mouse's mysterious nature and past and vowed to keep it quiet and continue to help watching the girl from afar. Her focus became the school, as well as finding ways to relieve herself of her loneliness. She took her alchemy back up again, as well as continued her parents' legacy and proficiency in botany.

More time passed with very little incident. For a period, Lili was surrounded by an influx of interested parties who wished to start relationships with her. Only one caught her interest in the end, a miqo'te man she met through Kolhi'to named [[Darturu Torlan]]. Charmed and taken in by his good manners, wit, and appearence, he soon became a regular part of her life. And soon, a significant other. Shortly after this her youngest daughter, Sarameda, became ill. Needing constant care and attention, Lili took an extended period of time to be with her daughter and away from the world. Including away from Darturu.

Shortly after Sara finally recovered, Lili heard everyone had relocated to Ul'dah to start up a new company with Kolhi'to as head of the organization. A mercenary group called the Blacktalon Vanguard, and Darturu was his partner. Lili relocated so as to help with the group, as well as be supportive of Dart. While the relationship with Darturu didn't last and they eventually parted ways, she still met many new people and still talks to quite a few even after she left the Vanguard to start her own group, the Free Wing Society. During this time she met a young lalachild named [[Adokenai Kodomo]], a resident tot at the Quicksand that seemed to be cared after by Momodi and the adventurers that inhabited the place. So taken by him, she decided to adopt the boy as her own and the announcement was made at the opening of the Pumpkin Cafe. There, she met two people: [[Rock Shattermountain]] and [[Sarial Hawke]], both of whom took a liking to the woman and her charms. They later joined the Society, along with others that Lili knew from Blacktalon and beyond.

Also during this time, she met a man named [[C'kayah Tia]] who supplied with her alchemical regents that she was having a hard time getting a hold of. The attraction between the two was almost instant, and at the end of the night Lili decided to give him a link to her personal pearl. Not expecting to hear from him for quite some time (if ever), Lili was surprised when he got a hold of her almost immediately afterwards. It set off a chain of interactions that sent them down an unexpectedly passionate path of emotions and intimacy that Lili never seemed able to push aside. Even though at the begining she was wary, he made her feel like she could take a chance. It led her to meeting even more people, like [[Kenthy Pennyfeather]] and [[Miah Polaali]], and eventually led to her and Kayah becoming mates. While their relationship was 'open' and unconventional, she also took in a lover named [[Kaiten Skyborn]] while C'kayah took in his own interests.

The Society continued to thrive, though some of her friendships suffered as a product of her relationship with C'kayah. Her long standing friendship with [[T'shina Vashka]] and [[Tenha'a Rendha]] being the primary ones, as their dislike of C'kayah and vehemence against Lili being with him led to them leaving the Society. While this happened, Lili remained firm in her decision to spend her future with the male. Life continued to change and though Lili and C'kayah eventually parted ways, she took the developments in stride and poured herself further into work. She then had moved Ado and herself into their company house with the hopes to one day get a home of their own.

In her pursuit of helping her employees who have also become her friends, Lili has done things she's not proud of. From keeping secrets to covering up misdeeds and misconduct, it's had the effect of loosening her sense of morals and made her more receptive to doing shadier dealings. Recently during a private ritual to save [[Kaohastraal Aeseroix]] from wasting away in decay, they acquired the body of a Garlean prisoner doomed for execution. Only after the ritual was complete when they removed his mask and robes did Lili see that it was none other then her supposedly deceased husband [[Ghislan Nightwing]]. While now possessing memories of both her friend and husband, it's left Lili in a very strange position both emotionally and legally. At the same time to add to the confusion, her relationship with [[Kaiten Skyborn]] has dwindled and her connection to [[Locke Rinannis]] has strengthened just as the Society made a move into a new house in the Lavender Beds!

'''Currently''': Lili remains working, balancing a home and professional life as best as she's able. She's usually found in Ul'dah or her new company house in the Lavender Beds, managing her employees or organizing relations and jobs. More often then not her time is work related save for those rare moments where she spends time quietly with her family and friends. Now that she's situated in her new life, she has been caught improving her relations with others in her company that she's spent time with or has aided.

By the time Katiti was six; they had split apart, leaving the girl alone and blaming herself. Her uncle had at that point took her in, where she grew up and worked on the farm to make her way, often playing and taking care of the dodos. As time went on, she was given more and more responsibility, going with the caravans into La Noscea, watching the trading and selling of their goods, and sneaking time away in the Arcanist's Guild library.

When the Cataclysm occurred, her world view was shaken apart. The entire world around her changed, and she couldn't understand why or how, so she began reading more and more on the other nations. Eventually this grew into a desire to travel and explore. With her uncle's blessing she set off for the nearest city, Ul'dah.

Though she quickly failed at being an adventurer and an explorer, she did find she had a skill in budgeting, teaching, and managing. As time moved on, she eventually set aside her dreams and was swooped up by Gus Pumpkinweed into his cafe business, working a side-job as a teacher for Ado.

((WIP))
The woman looks as though she could take a lot of physical abuse as well as give it, possessing a stocky muscular frame more common to Roe than Highlander hyur, and broad shoulders and hips. In contrast to this she has a round, childish with soft features that are more androgynous than feminine, and a rounded, slightly bulbous nose.
Her normal eye color can be seen in her right eye, being a dark steel blue, while the iris of her left eye has a bleached out moth-eaten look to it; the result of an injury while young, though she claims she does not suffer from any vision problems as a result, or at least not past her already being far-sighted.
She normally keeps her thick 'red' hair slicked back in a type of quiff
Her voice is somewhat low and husky

Clothing-wise she tends to favor clothes that are functional and comfortable, leathers, and usually offering at least a little protection in some way or another. More often than not the clothes are fitted but not tight, or loose enough to have plenty of freedom for movement but not get caught in a bow string or threaten to tangle while fighting, and cover a good deal of skin, giving her more the illusion of being fat or thick rather than muscular when she's not wearing something to show off her assets. Her favored colors for clothes tend to be purples, blacks, earthy colors for greens and browns, or reds, though she insists her favorite color is blue
She can sometimes be seen wearing simple glasses when she's not working on a job where she may be fighting or shooting something full of arrows.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Jan. 15)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Rinannis Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Vahl'sae Bajihri :''' A Keeper Miqo'te who Locke recently hired as the supplier for his ores and magitek. They maintain a polite cordiality, which Locke hopes will forge into a strong business relationship over time.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Xha'in Polaali :''' An odd little Keeper who Locke doesn't quite know what to make of yet. His behavior is perplexing, but Locke has simply learned to go with the flow. And Lili seems to trust him, so that's a plus.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zephyr Quillsong]] :''' A blind Duskwight which Locke has met on several occasions around the Society house. He finds her love for nature and animals quite charming, though he worries how she gets along while knocking into things as much as she does.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' (aka [[V'lanya Mei]]) A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease. However, Lilithium seems to be good friends with her, which has helped to ease Locke's thoughts about the woman.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zeta Quillsong]] :''' Locke feels a little unsettled around this Duskwight, though he doesn't show it and always tries to share a kind word.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur who Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Jan. 5)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Locke's Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Free Wing's Office (Lavender Beds Subdivision, Ward 4, Plot 46 - X:9, Y:9) - <i>The headquarters of a staffing company to which Locke is employed.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30) - <i>A common place of meditation.</i>
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Central Shroud (The Mirror Planks - X:25, Y:28) - <i>Where he picks up shipments from Ul'dah.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' (aka [[V'lanya Mei]]) A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Jan. 5)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>High Aetheric Weakness:</b> Despite him having little magical ability, Locke is very vulnerable against aether and the Void. He uses aetherytes as little as possible and avoids most (if not all) aetheric/Voidal occurrences.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

(He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2015 Jan. 5)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''The Goblet, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' (Fiancée) Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye. The two have recently become engaged!

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' (Sister-figure) Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellian child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. After Ado was recently returned from a kidnapping situation, Locke has plans to make sure the child is protected and cared for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Yuki Kurenai]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interactions with Yuki. Their relationship has been a bit...odd as of late, though Locke can't quite put his finger on the reason.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Zaiaku Kurai]] :''' A black-haired Hyur that Locke has only had the displeasure of meeting in person once. Zaiaku has threatened Lilithium and Adokenai's safety and happiness too many times for Locke to permit forgiveness, and he would love nothing more than to see him come to justice.

They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines.

The instrumental themes are meant to give an idea of the atmosphere around the character.

<span style="font-size:smaller;">Note: This section is editable by anyone. Just keep in mind that the rumors here may be both true or false.</span>

:*[[Warren Castille]]: "She was very kind, though I worry for the safety of a solitary blind woman walking through Ul'dah at night."
:*[[Lilithium Altair]]: "She seems very capable of taking care of herself, so it puts my mind at ease! And she loves the little ones that run around the company house."
:*[[Locke Rinannis]]: "Ah, Miss Zephyr! From what I've seen, she knows a fair amount about the forests and its plantlife...almost to a religious extent. Do be careful if you enter her room though, lest you be bombarded by animals of all kinds!"

== History ==

=== '''''<u>Name and Lifestyle</u>''''' ===

==== Name Etimology ====

==== Nicknames ====

None yet.

==== Current Residence ====
*Living in Ul'dah, frequents Gridania

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Birth and childhood (0-10)</span></span>''</span> ====
She will never tell much beyond the 'average' childhood one can expect a duskwight to have at such a delicate age, but does mention she discovered her talent for healing during this time and her clan encouraged her to hone it.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Teen Years</span></span>''</span> ====
In this particularly gangly stage she grew very gifted with her healing abilities. Very little to nothing is known of her in this time, and she does not answer when questioned.

From somewhere in her 20's she and her twin fled their home cave and spent many years simply wandering the world, lost and confused in the painful light of day. Now adapted to the surface world she knows far more than she could have imagined possible, speaking many tongues and knowing skills her people were mere novices in. She has traveled to all corners of Eorzea and beyond, finding herself more of a stay at home sort as of late and seeking the calm of the familiar world about her.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">A Realm Reborn (Present, 23)</span></span>''</span> ====
These days Zephyr spends most of her time wandering Ul'Dah and healing as she is call upon. Not one to turn down a plea for help she often refuses payment and tells her patients to instead buy supplies for the refugees.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cryptic:</b> He sometimes speaks without proper context, as if his words have only said half of what his mind is thinking. He has a strangely poetic side that enjoys dramatic flair and dark philosophies.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Unenthused:</b> He cares about little else except his own small area of interest. He doesn't try to hide this either, visibly expressing annoyance if he is bothered.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Perfectionist:</b> He obsesses with the perfection of his craft. He does not want to be good, he wants to be the best, no matter what (or who) gets in his way.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Pre-Calamity</div>====
: Born in Gridania proper, Orrian is the product of the city's blatant racism toward Duskwights. As a child, small and skinny even for an Elezen, the other children would often heckle and bully him. More than once, Orrian would return home with more cuts and bruises than when he had left. Orrian learned to enjoy solitude and escape into books. Tales of adventure , danger, and treasure filled his days, and he longed for a chance to have an adventure all his own.

: One day, a Padjal approached him and gave him a book that would forge him into his present self: a book about magic. The Padjal must have sensed something in Orrian that the child could not see in himself, for he wordlessly passed the tome to him while the scrawny child nestled behind a bush with one of his tales, trying to remain unseen from all the other children.

: The Padjal simply smiled and walked away. Orrian popped out of the bush, curious as to where the stranger had come from, and was instantly seen by several children. He took a step back and turned to run as one of them began to shout. The exact phrase lost itself to the wind, but it was no doubt something that would rouse the children to chase him. Despite Orrian's small stature, he could run much faster than the most of the other children. But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

: "Stupids!" she taunted, grinning to herself and sticking her tongue out as they fled.

: Orrian rubbed his head and sat up, blinking at the Miqo'te as she picked up his books. She handed them to him with a grin. Orrian, afraid of being punched again, inched away and looked down, squeezing his eyes shut.

: "You're weird," the girl laughed.

: "..."

: "I'm Iona!" she said, still holding the books out for him.

: Orrian dared not raise his head. His words dropped uselessly to the ground as he mumbled something.

: "Eh?" she tilted her head, her mouth twisted in confusion. "Come again?"

: "Orrian," he repeated a little louder, lifting himself to his feet and snatching his books. He held them tightly to his chest and kept his eyes downward.

: "I seen ya around. Get picked on a lot?"

: "..."

: Iona beamed. His silence was a good enough answer enough for her. "Well not anymore! Anyone who messes with ya is gonna get a piece 'o my fist! In the face!"

: After that moment, the two became fast friends, and one was rarely seen without the other. And yet, somehow, they still followed very different paths. While Iona grew even more athletic and outgoing, Orrian remained quiet and fragile.

: Orrian had consumed every word from the book on magic given to him. His parents saw his interest, and when he was nearing 10, sent him to E-Sumi-Yan to judge Orrian's ability. Perhaps he could be trained in the ways of conjury. Perhaps he could find a place in Gridania...

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Azareth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian still spends most of his time at the Ossuary. He may visit an area of particular interest on occasion, but most times can only be coerced to venture out by Iona.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interractions with Mizore, the least of which included her appearing in his workshop when all the doors were locked tight. Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Usual_RP_Locations|Usual RP Locations]]''').

The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better.

Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

== Basic Info ==

''"Even if the morrow is barren of promises, Nothing shall forestall my return." — '''Genesis'''''

Mizore is a Seeker Miqo'te yet you wouldn't think that from her actions. She wasn't raised within a tribe of any sort or even by her birth family. She is silent around new people but when spoken to, speaks her mind clearly and sometimes that does manage to get her into trouble. She is all about pushing herself, and others, past their limits to show that they can still rise. Yet while she is about furthering herself, there are still shadows that shroud her path. She searches for something new in everything; People, Books, Weapons, Anything of the sort.

If one was to address her by 'Mizore' she will most likely not listen yet if you use one of her nicknames, or even give her a nickname yourself, she will react to it as if you were calling her by her real name. Her favorite name is still 'Snow' for reasons unknown.

Smart as a whip and quick to react, she isn't one to be under estimated. She will watch you from afar and try to learn what she can of you without speaking words. Yet if you wish to approach her, she may hold a very cold attitude at first, but others who know her can say she is quite passionate when it comes to friendship... In her own strange way.

While he doesn't hold any blood relation to Mizore in any manner, she still calls him 'brother'. At first, he was unwilling to go by it but it grew on him over time.. Yet the two would continue to enter mindless bantering to one another when she would introduce him as her 'brother', him trying to quickly correct her, soon ending in the two correcting each other with their own views.

== History ==

=== '''''<u>Name and Lifestyle</u>''''' ===

==== Name Etymology ====

Mizore Dorne: It is believed that this is not her real name. When she first arrived to Aleport, she gave no name but soon after, when others approached her, it was what she replied with, 'Mizore Dorne'.

==== Nicknames ====

* Snow
* Mimi
* Nana

==== Current Residence ====

Free Wing Society

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Birth and childhood (0-10)</span></span>''</span> ====

Mizore can not tell you much of her child years, for even herself doesn't know it fully. What she does know is that she was an orphan and was raised by a large family and was full of hardships yet the fruit from her labors were well worth it. She assumes it was her 'family' that taught her of her weapons skills and the honor and pride she places into them.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Teen Years</span></span>''</span> ====

Her Teen Years were just as blurred as her child years. What she does remember is the smell of iron and flames, the taste of blood and screams still ring within her ears to this day.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Adulthood</span></span>''</span> ====

Her new life began in Aleport, getting off of a ship from distant lands. The first thought that traveled within her mind was that it was rather barren for a place she heard much of. And she can still tell you that it reeks of fish. From Aleport she traveled to Limsa and soon found herself within the lush city of Gridania. There, she learned of the Archers and soon sought to become apart of their training.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Present</span></span>''</span> ====

Currently, she lives within Ul'dah and performs tasks for the Free Company, Free Wings Society. She works proudly and believes she has made a few friends, yet the fact that she can not remember her past is a heavy burden upon her. She tries to learn more each day of the history she has forgotten but so far, has come to only dead ends.

While he doesn't hold any blood relation to Mizore in any manner, she still calls him 'brother'. At first, he was unwilling to go by it but it grew on him over time.. Yet the two would continue to enter mindless bantering to one another when she would introduce him as her 'brother', him trying to quickly correct her, soon ending in the two correcting each other with their own views.

== History ==

=== '''''<u>Name and Lifestyle</u>''''' ===

==== Name Etymology ====

Mizore Dorne: It is believed that this is not her real name. When she first arrived to Aleport, she gave no name but soon after, when others approached her, it was what she replied with, 'Mizore Dorne'.

==== Nicknames ====

* Snow
* Mimi
* Nana

==== Current Residence ====

Free Wing Society

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Birth and childhood (0-10)</span></span>''</span> ====

Mizore can not tell you much of her child years, for even herself doesn't know it fully. What she does know is that she was an orphan and was raised by a large family and was full of hardships yet the fruit from her labors were well worth it. She assumes it was her 'family' that taught her of her weapons skills and the honor and pride she places into them.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Teen Years</span></span>''</span> ====

Her Teen Years were just as blurred as her child years. What she does remember is the smell of iron and flames, the taste of blood and screams still ring within her ears to this day.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Adulthood</span></span>''</span> ====

Her new life began in Aleport, getting off of a ship from distant lands. The first thought that traveled within her mind was that it was rather barren for a place she heard much of. And she can still tell you that it reeks of fish. From Aleport she traveled to Limsa and soon found herself within the lush city of Gridania. There, she learned of the Archers and soon sought to become apart of their training.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Present</span></span>''</span> ====

Currently, she lives within Ul'dah and performs tasks for the Free Company, Free Wings Society. She works proudly and believes she has made a few friends, yet the fact that she can not remember her past is a heavy burden upon her. She tries to learn more each day of the history she has forgotten but so far, has come to only dead ends.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged or pickpocketed at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Locke's Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Locations|Locations]]''').

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction.

He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">NOTICE</div>===
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet (nicknamed "Olli") trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Locke's Repairs (The Goblet Subdivision, Ward 1, Plot 51 - X:12, Y:13) - <i>Locke's personal home as well as where he runs his business.</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Locations|Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interractions with Mizore, the least of which included her appearing in his workshop when all the doors were locked tight. Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

== Basic Info ==

''"Even if the morrow is barren of promises, Nothing shall forestall my return." — '''Genesis'''''

Mizore is a Seeker Miqo'te yet you wouldn't think that from her actions. She wasn't raised within a tribe of any sort or even by her birth family. She is silent around new people but when spoken to, speaks her mind clearly and sometimes that does manage to get her into trouble. She is all about pushing herself, and others, past their limits to show that they can still rise. Yet while she is about furthering herself, there are still shadows that shroud her path. She searches for something new in everything; People, Books, Weapons, Anything of the sort.

If one was to address her by 'Mizore' she will most likely not listen yet if you use one of her nicknames, or even give her a nickname yourself, she will react to it as if you were calling her by her real name. Her favorite name is still 'Snow' for reasons unknown.

Smart as a whip and quick to react, she isn't one to be under estimated. She will watch you from afar and try to learn what she can of you without speaking words. Yet if you wish to approach her, she may hold a very cold attitude at first, but others who know her can say she is quite passionate when it comes to friendship... In her own strange way.

While he doesn't hold any blood relation to Mizore in any manner, she still calls him 'brother'. At first, he was unwilling to go by it but it grew on him over time.. Yet the two would continue to enter mindless bantering to one another when she would introduce him as her 'brother', him trying to quickly correct her, soon ending in the two correcting each other with their own views.

== History ==

=== '''''<u>Name and Lifestyle</u>''''' ===

==== Name Etymology ====

Mizore Dorne: It is believed that this is not her real name. When she first arrived to Aleport, she gave no name but soon after, when others approached her, it was what she replied with, 'Mizore Dorne'.

==== Nicknames ====

* Snow
* Mimi
* Nana

==== Current Residence ====

Free Wing Society

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Birth and childhood (0-10)</span></span>''</span> ====

Mizore can not tell you much of her child years, for even herself doesn't know it fully. What she does know is that she was an orphan and was raised by a large family and was full of hardships yet the fruit from her labors were well worth it. She assumes it was her 'family' that taught her of her weapons skills and the honor and pride she places into them.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Teen Years</span></span>''</span> ====

Her Teen Years were just as blurred as her child years. What she does remember is the smell of iron and flames, the taste of blood and screams still ring within her ears to this day.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Adulthood</span></span>''</span> ====

Her new life began in Aleport, getting off of a ship from distant lands. The first thought that traveled within her mind was that it was rather barren for a place she heard much of. And she can still tell you that it reeks of fish. From Aleport she traveled to Limsa and soon found herself within the lush city of Gridania. There, she learned of the Archers and soon sought to become apart of their training.

Currently, she lives within Ul'dah and performs tasks for the Free Company, Free Wings Society.

== Basic Info ==

''"Even if the morrow is barren of promises, Nothing shall forestall my return." — '''Genesis'''''

Mizore is a Seeker Miqo'te yet you wouldn't think that from her actions. She wasn't raised within a tribe of any sort or even by her birth family. She is silent around new people but when spoken to, speaks her mind clearly and sometimes that does manage to get her into trouble. She is all about pushing herself, and others, past their limits to show that they can still rise. Yet while she is about furthering herself, there are still shadows that shroud her path. She searches for something new in everything; People, Books, Weapons, Anything of the sort.

If one was to address her by 'Mizore' she will most likely not listen yet if you use one of her nicknames, or even give her a nickname yourself, she will react to it as if you were calling her by her real name. Her favorite name is still 'Snow' for reasons unknown.

Smart as a whip and quick to react, she isn't one to be under estimated. She will watch you from afar and try to learn what she can of you without speaking words. Yet if you wish to approach her, she may hold a very cold attitude at first, but others who know her can say she is quite passionate when it comes to friendship... In her own strange way.

While he doesn't hold any blood relation to Mizore in any manner, she still calls him 'brother'. At first, he was unwilling to go by it but it grew on him over time.. Yet the two would continue to enter mindless bantering to one another when she would introduce him as her 'brother', him trying to quickly correct her, soon ending in the two correcting each other with their own views.

== History ==

=== '''''<u>Name and Lifestyle</u>''''' ===

==== Name Etymology ====

Mizore Dorne: It is believed that this is not her real name. When she first arrived to Aleport, she gave no name but soon after, when others approached her, it was what she replied with, 'Mizore Dorne'.

==== Nicknames ====

* Snow
* Mimi
* Nana

==== Current Residence ====

Free Wing Society

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Birth and childhood (0-10)</span></span>''</span> ====

Mizore can not tell you much of her child years, for even herself doesn't know it fully. What she does know is that she was an orphan and was raised by a large family and was full of hardships yet the fruit from her labors were well worth it. She assumes it was her 'family' that taught her of her weapons skills and the honor and pride she places into them.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Teen Years</span></span>''</span> ====

Her Teen Years were just as blurred as her child years. What she does remember is the smell of iron and flames, the taste of blood and screams still ring within her ears to this day.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Adulthood</span></span>''</span> ====

Her new life began in Aleport, getting off of a ship from distant lands. The first thought that traveled within her mind was that it was rather barren for a place she heard much of. And she can still tell you that it reeks of fish. From Aleport she traveled to Limsa and soon found herself within the lush city of Gridania. There, she learned of the Archers and soon sought to become apart of their training.

==== <span style="font-size:larger;">''<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-size:small;">Present</span></span>''</span> ====

Currently, she lives within Ul'dah and performs tasks for the Free Company, Free Wings Society. She works proudly and believes she has made a few friends, yet the fact that she can not remember her past is a heavy burden upon her. She tries to learn more each day of the history she has forgotten but so far, has come to only dead ends.

| stat_6 =
| stat_6_value =
}}

==Character==
===General===
:Cassandra is 19 years old. She has recently begun her training as an Arcanist. She's quite dedicated and is often found either studying or writing in her diary. Much of her time is also spent exploring Limsa Lominsa and it's outskirts, all of which are new to her.

===Appearance===
:Cassandra is quite dainty, standing at 5'4", with a slim figure. Her black hair, unblemished porcelain skin and violet eyes are have gotten her in and out of trouble many times. She's well aware of her beauty and the effect it has on others, something she has often used to her advantage. That said, she doesn't enjoy being the center of attention, and as such she rarely dresses in revealing or provocative clothes, preferring instead a more discrete style.

===Personality===
:Cassandra is not the most approachable of people. She appreciates manners and acts accordingly, but she also sees politeness as a way to keep people at arm's length. The irreverence that is common at her age often shines through the veil of formality though. While rarely outright rude or insulting, she instead employs sarcasm or aloofness to deal with those she finds unpleasant, or simply to mess with them, if she's in the mood for it. Indeed, a part of Cassandra seems to take great pleasure in creating mischief. She has a penchant for making inflammatory remarks, and the fact that she's brutally honest doesn't help matters. It's from that very same part of her that her dark sense of humor is derived. Said humor takes shape not only as schadenfreude but also in the form of inappropriate jokes.

:While it may simply seem as though she has a chip on her shoulder, she's well aware of the effect she has on people, and her attitude is more often than not a premeditated way to avoid letting people get close. Some have said that beneath that somewhat rough surface lies a soft center. While not immediately apparent, her warmth can be observed in the way she deals with all manner of small creatures.

===Beliefs and Motivations===

:Cassandra is not fond of religion. Despite any academic curiosity she might have, she cares little for any deities. A firm believer in free will, she scorns the notion of fate. She does however believe that there's a purpose and a reason for everything and everyone, even if her actions might at times seem nihilistic. Her sense of morality appears to be quite flexible, she's comfortable in the company of noblemen or scoundrels alike. That said, she has no tolerance for those who in some way harm those she considers innocent, such as animals or children.

:Her one true motivation is power. She seeks power, not for the sake of ruling over others but as a means of independence, she hates relying on anyone else and she's willing to go to great lengths to avoid doing so.

==Combat==
===General===
:Cassandra isn't a skilled fighter, nor is she physically strong, and she knows it. While she's well aware of her weakness, she certainly doesn't enjoy showing it to others, and as such she does her best to avoid physical confrontation.

:Despite her weakness, Cassandra is no stranger to violence. Used to travelling on her own, she is rarely without a concealed sharp blade and a comfortable pair of shoes. Being able to flee is important when one has no other weapons, and she can run quite fast.

:Although her magical abilities are still fairly limited, Cassandra shows promise as an Arcanist. Her confidence grows by the day.

==Tendencies==
===Likes===
:* Animals, nature in general
:* Good conversation, particularly if it involves discussing opposing viewpoints
:* Chocolate

===Dislikes===
:* Bigots and zealots (of the religious type in particular).
:* Showing weakness of any kind
:* Spiders

===Hobbies/Talents===
:* Reading
:* Travelling, exploring
:* Pampering her pets

===Other===
:* She's considerably wealthy. While she doesn't go around sharing that information with others, she makes no effort to hide it either.
:* Being frequently on the outside, Cassandra has become quite observant about the behavior of others.
:* When she's concentrating on something, she often can't help but to mumble to herself. Her mumblings can range from the non-sensical to the inappropriate, causing some embarrassment.

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

:'''Edwin Lachance''' - Her father, killed during the calamity.

:'''Bridget Lachance''' - Mother. Aside from the fact that she's alive, there's very little that Cassandra seems to be willing to share about her mother.

===Friends===
:Currently none.

===Enemies===
:For obvious reasons, she's not fond of the Garlean Empire.

==Rumors==
===Common Rumors===

===Uncommon Rumors===

===PC Rumors===
:* "Miss Cassandra? I can't imagine being able to manipulate Primal aether the way she does. She makes it look easy! Ah, I'd be careful around the fiery one though, I think it has a temper." - [[Locke Rinannis]]
:*
:*

==History/Timeline==
:Cassandra was born and raised in Gridania. She loved the outdoors from a young age and spent quite a lot of time exploring the Black Shroud, usually against the will of her parents. She always had a hard time making friends, she was a bit of a bookworm and counter more woodland creatures among her friends than she did people.

:She was mostly oblivious to worldly affairs until the Garlean Invasion, which resulted in the death of her father.

:About a year later, at age 16, Cassandra left Gridania for good.

:Three years later she settled in Limsa Lominsa, to begin her training as an Arcanist.

==OOC Information==

:Please note that Cassandra's backstory goes beyond what you can see here, but I tried to post only what she would be willing to share with most people. I might expand on her story here if it becomes common knowledge about the character.

:I'm not that experienced with roleplay, so please feel free to let me know if you have any observations or suggestions regarding my profile or character.

:My thanks to [[Deirdre Ta'ea]] for creating the template I've used.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Locations|Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interractions with Mizore, the least of which included her appearing in his workshop when all the doors were locked tight. Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Lavender Beds, Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Locations|Locations]]''').

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interractions with Mizore, the least of which included her appearing in his workshop when all the doors were locked tight. Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Thanalan</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Gridania :''' Before Locke resided in Ul'dah, someone could have spotted him passing through Gridania with a green-haired Lalafell. They only stayed in the city long enough to resupply and rest before traveling south to Thanalan.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Lavender Beds, Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''. Locke has participated in several missions and odd jobs and can seen around Eorzea alongside several of its members. He may also be spotted at the company's house in Lavender Beds, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually disclosing information about their pasts. Locke has entrusted her with information regarding himself, and he greatly appreciates her eagerness to assist him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Altair :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Locke has had a few curious interractions with Mizore, the least of which included her appearing in his workshop when all the doors were locked tight. Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Cassandra Lachance]] :''' A recent recruit of the Free Wings whom Locke has only met once so far. He is in awe of her ability to manipulate primal aether, but it also makes him wary.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group.

The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> = Updated (2014 Dec. 12)

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Past</div>====
: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and '''[[Romimo Romi]]''' both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: <i>Journal Entries can be found on [http://nomocer.tumblr.com/tagged/LockeRPJournal Locke's Tumblr] or [http://freewingsociety.enjin.com/forum/m/21843099/viewthread/17003832-its-always-quiet-ones/post/last Dove's Forums].</i>

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Since his arrival to Ul'dah, Locke was recruited by the Free Wing Society. He did small jobs and fundraisers with them while slowly growing acquainted with its members. He grew especially acquainted with one in particular, '''[[Lilithium Altair]]''', the leader of the company. After spending much time speaking, entrusting things with one another, and displaying affection, Locke confessed his love. And, much to his relief, she returned the sentiment.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> Lilithium accompanied Locke back to his hometown of Oakbarrow. He only wished to see if from a distance to make sure it was all right, knowing that he would never be allowed within its boundaries. However, when he arrived, he discovered that the village had been completely overrun by voidsent from another rift, turning all its residents (including his brother, Auric) into undead or voidsent themselves.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> With a heavy heart, Locke reunited with Romimo at Poor Maid's Mill, nearly a year since leaving their home, to share the news. The visit wasn't long, and after mourning together, the two parted ways once again with promises of more regular visits.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font> All the while, his skills at the Coliseum had begun to flourish, and he decided to strike out on his own. He has made a business for himself that deals with repairs for clockwork machines (mammets and the like), as well as magitek and armor, located in the Goblet (see '''[[Locke_Rinannis#Locations|Locations]]''').

He greatly respects Lili and has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a lover as well. Her warmth and kindness opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice. His feelings for her have expanded, even daring to show her his affection in the public eye.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister.

: <font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="2">★</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. The two seem to get along rather well, and Locke is quite curious to know more about her research concerning crystals.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the previous leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

Her sadness makes him worry, but since she hired him as a partner of sorts for a job, he hopes that he can lift her spirits (if only a little) while working alongside her.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Ghislan Nightwing :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nanapo Napo :''' A Lalafellin child who Locke sometimes sees wandering around the Free Wing's property. He doesn't know much about her, but like any child he knows, Locke shows a good-natured kindness.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a previous Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke could often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy, until he resigned from the position to pursue a business as a self-employed mechanic.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He used to spend many evenings there researching.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At 6 fulms 4 ilms, Orrian stands quite short for an Elezen. He buries his lithe frame beneath heavy robes. His skin bears the typical greyed shade of a Duskwight, and sharp green eyes peer beneath long black hair that rests on his shoulders.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Occasionally, a small rat peeks out from one of the many pockets of Orrian's robes. This is Jix, a pet of his.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cynical:</b> He would say he's being "realistic" or "honest." Orrian is skeptical of everyone and everything until proven otherwise.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Introverted:</b> Orrian hates crowds and smalltalk. Given enough time, he will likely end up saying something awkward or insensitive.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cryptic:</b> He sometimes speaks without proper context, as if his words have only said half of what his mind is thinking. He has a strangely poetic side that enjoys dramatic flair and dark philosophies.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Unenthused:</b> He cares about little else except his own small area of interest. He doesn't try to hide this either, visibly expressing annoyance if he is bothered.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Perfectionist:</b> He obsesses with the perfection of his craft. He does not want to be good, he wants to be the best, no matter what (or who) gets in his way.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Aetherial Prodigy:</b>Orrian delves into the aetheric arts head first, leaving no stone unturned, even participating in things that may be considered unethical. His insatiable curiosity, obsessive study, and natural skill have resulted in one very powerful thaumaturge.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Physically Weak:</b> Being a bit of a shut-in hasn't done much for Orrian's physical fitness. In a fight without magic, the best he can do is run (and thanks to Iona's escapades, he can run quite far).

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Pre-Calamity</div>====
: Born in Gridania proper, Orrian is the product of the city's blatant racism toward Duskwights. As a child, small and skinny even for an Elezen, the other children would often heckle and bully him. More than once, Orrian would return home with more cuts and bruises than when he had left. Orrian learned to enjoy solitude and escape into books. Tales of adventure , danger, and treasure filled his days, and he longed for a chance to have an adventure all his own.

: One day, a Padjal approached him and gave him a book that would forge him into his present self: a book about magic. The Padjal must have sensed something in Orrian that the child could not see in himself, for he wordlessly passed the tome to him while the scrawny child nestled behind a bush with one of his tales, trying to remain unseen from all the other children.

: The Padjal simply smiled and walked away. Orrian popped out of the bush, curious as to where the stranger had come from, and was instantly seen by several children. He took a step back and turned to run as one of them began to shout. The exact phrase lost itself to the wind, but it was no doubt something that would rouse the children to chase him. Despite Orrian's small stature, he could run much faster than the most of the other children. But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

: "Stupids!" she taunted, grinning to herself and sticking her tongue out as they fled.

: Orrian rubbed his head and sat up, blinking at the Miqo'te as she picked up his books. She handed them to him with a grin. Orrian, afraid of being punched again, inched away and looked down, squeezing his eyes shut.

: "You're weird," the girl laughed.

: "..."

: "I'm Iona!" she said, still holding the books out for him.

: Orrian dared not raise his head. His words dropped uselessly to the ground as he mumbled something.

: "Eh?" she tilted her head, her mouth twisted in confusion. "Come again?"

: "Orrian," he repeated a little louder, lifting himself to his feet and snatching his books. He held them tightly to his chest and kept his eyes downward.

: "I seen ya around. Get picked on a lot?"

: "..."

: Iona beamed. His silence was a good enough answer enough for her. "Well not anymore! Anyone who messes with ya is gonna get a piece 'o my fist! In the face!"

: After that moment, the two became fast friends, and one was rarely seen without the other. And yet, somehow, they still followed very different paths. While Iona grew even more athletic and outgoing, Orrian remained quiet and fragile.

: Orrian had consumed every word from the book on magic given to him. His parents saw his interest, and when he was nearing 10, sent him to E-Sumi-Yan to judge Orrian's ability. Perhaps he could be trained in the ways of conjury. Perhaps he could find a place in Gridania...

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Azareth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian still spends most of his time at the Ossuary. He may visit an area of particular interest on occasion, but most times can only be coerced to venture out by Iona.

: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "He reads! A lot. He's always carrying a book with him. I wonder what they're about?"
: <font style="color:#90AB76;" size="3">►</font> "Orrian's a pretty quiet fellow, and there's somethin' ... I dunno, <i>uneasy</i> about him. Just a gut feeling, I guess."

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At 6 fulms 4 ilms, Orrian stands quite short for an Elezen. He buries his lithe frame beneath heavy robes. His skin bears the typical greyed shade of a Duskwight, and sharp green eyes peer beneath long black hair that rests on his shoulders.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Cryptic:</b> He sometimes speaks without proper context, as if his words have only said half of what his mind is thinking. He has a strangely poetic side that enjoys dramatic flair and dark philosophies.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Pre-Calamity</div>====
: Born in Gridania proper, Orrian is the product of the city's blatant racism toward Duskwights. As a child, small and skinny even for an Elezen, the other children would often heckle and bully him. More than once, Orrian would return home with more cuts and bruises than when he had left. Orrian learned to enjoy solitude and escape into books. Tales of adventure , danger, and treasure filled his days, and he longed for a chance to have an adventure all his own.

: One day, a Padjal approached him and gave him a book that would forge him into his present self: a book about magic. The Padjal must have sensed something in Orrian that the child could not see in himself, for he wordlessly passed the tome to him while the scrawny child nestled behind a bush with one of his tales, trying to remain unseen from all the other children.

: The Padjal simply smiled and walked away. Orrian popped out of the bush, curious as to where the stranger had come from, and was instantly seen by several children. He took a step back and turned to run as one of them began to shout. The exact phrase lost itself to the wind, but it was no doubt something that would rouse the children to chase him. Despite Orrian's small stature, he could run much faster than the most of the other children. But as he slid around a corner, the call must have collected the attention of others, and he bumped right into a stout Elezen boy. Orrian gasped, and his books fluttered to the ground.

: The Wildwood, a good head taller than Orrian, grinned. "Go back to your tunnels, gray-skinned freak."

: Orrian felt himself hit the ground before he realized how he got there.

: [[Iona C'mokkri]], a Miqo'te Seeker with a personality as large as her Roegadyn step-father, didn't care much about popularity or rules or opinions. She lived a free-spirited life, reveling in a good scrap. She, like Orrian, often returned home with more cuts and bruises than when she had left, but most of them were because she had started the fight. And won every time (much to her step-father's delight).

: So when Iona saw Orrian on his back and a mischievous Elezen towering over him and guffawing, it took only a moment before her fist planted itself square into the Wildwood boy's jaw, sending him to the ground with the same dazed expression.

: "Wha..." the child muttered before his eyes focused on red hair. Red hair and hands balled into fists. "I..Ion..."

: "It's Iona!" The fastest of the children exlaimed as she turned the corner, the other children on her heels and screeching to a halt.

: "Let's get out of here!"

: "Matron's teats!"

: Several of the children gasped at the profanity as they skittered away. The Wildwood boy sprung to his feet and sprinted off as well, rubbing his jaw and holding back tears.

: "Stupids!" she taunted, grinning to herself and sticking her tongue out as they fled.

: Orrian rubbed his head and sat up, blinking at the Miqo'te as she picked up his books. She handed them to him with a grin. Orrian, afraid of being punched again, inched away and looked down, squeezing his eyes shut.

: "You're weird," the girl laughed.

: "..."

: "I'm Iona!" she said, still holding the books out for him.

: Orrian dared not raise his head. His words dropped uselessly to the ground as he mumbled something.

: "Eh?" she tilted her head, her mouth twisted in confusion. "Come again?"

: "Orrian," he repeated a little louder, lifting himself to his feet and snatching his books. He held them tightly to his chest and kept his eyes downward.

: "I seen ya around. Get picked on a lot?"

: "..."

: Iona beamed. His silence was a good enough answer enough for her. "Well not anymore! Anyone who messes with ya is gonna get a piece 'o my fist! In the face!"

: After that moment, the two became fast friends, and one was rarely seen without the other. And yet, somehow, they still followed very different paths. While Iona grew even more athletic and outgoing, Orrian remained quiet and fragile.

: Orrian had consumed every word from the book on magic given to him. His parents saw his interest, and when he was nearing 10, sent him to E-Sumi-Yan to judge Orrian's ability. Perhaps he could be trained in the ways of conjury. Perhaps he could find a place in Gridania...

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Azareth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian still spends most of his time at the Ossuary. He may visit an area of particular interest on occasion, but most times can only be coerced to venture out by Iona.

: He could not.

: "Your aether is strong," E-Sumi-Yan told him, "but it is not of us. You hold only the power to destroy, not to heal. The elements of nature do not listen. I cannot teach you."

: With all possibility of aetheric training denied him, he briefly took lessons in archery. He hated it. Hated that those who had bullied him were now his fellow peers, hated that he was too weak to pull most bows, hated that he was full of so much potential but was rejected by E-Sumi-Yan...

: The opportunity to harness his aether did not arise until Dalamud fell.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Post-Calamity</div>====
: When Orrian was 18 years old, the red moon burst from the sky. He lost his parents in the Calamity, and he was evacuated with many others to Ul'dah. Iona fled with him, her family gone as well.

: After their arrival, Iona quickly found a place in the city at the Pugilist guild. Her proficiency for punching things had paid off in the end.

: Orrian hesitantly approached the Azareth Ossuary. Inside, five Lalafell brothers eyed him curiously, smiling. They nodded in unison and accepted him as an apprentice.

: The Ossuary became Orrian's new home. He studied tirelessly (and still does to present day) in the ways of the aether. His interests developed as he learned, growing more and more interested in mysteries of the void. Cocobuki, the eldest of the Lalafellian brothers, cautioned but did not discourage him.

: Iona often visited Orrian and made sure to regularly drag him out of the building. No longer the boy who desired adventures, he would reluctantly follow along to whichever catacomb or ruins she wanted to explore. With Iona's strength and Orrian's knowledge, the two made quite a pair, and although Orrian would never admit it, he enjoyed seeing what artifacts they could uncover.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Present</div>====
: Orrian still spends most of his time at the Ossuary. He may visit an area of particular interest on occasion, but most times can only be coerced to venture out by Iona.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple-blue mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Locke's Personal Room (The Goblet, Ward 3, Plot 10 - X:8, Y:10)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (The Coliseum - X:9, Y:11)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30)

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
: <i>(HEAVY WORK IN PROGRESS)</i>

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

<i>(Names are alphabetical according to color.)</i><br><br></center>

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#FF99CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili, and Locke has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a close friend as well. Her warmth and kindness has opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Kodomo :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually trusting each other enough to disclose information about their pasts. Locke is still reluctant to say much, but he has given her a small black vial for safekeeping.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. They have conversed on a personal level only once, and Locke would like to work alongside her more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the event concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious. She also appeared to him through a strange magic to comfort him while he was troubled, but Locke has yet to question her about it in person.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke can still often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''. Locke has participated in several missions and odd jobs and can seen around Eorzea alongside several of its members. He may also be spotted at the company's house in the Goblet, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He spends many evenings there researching.

Most of this is very basic and under construction. More details soon!

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple-blue mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Locke's Personal Room (The Goblet, Ward 3, Plot 10 - X:8, Y:10)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (The Coliseum - X:9, Y:11)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30)

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
: <i>(HEAVY WORK IN PROGRESS)</i>

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

<i>(Names are alphabetical according to color.)</i><br><br></center>

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#FF99CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili, and Locke has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a close friend as well. Her warmth and kindness has opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Kodomo :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually trusting each other enough to disclose information about their pasts. Locke is still reluctant to say much, but he has given her a small black vial for safekeeping.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. They have conversed on a personal level only once, and Locke would like to work alongside her more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the matter concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious. She also appeared to him through a strange magic to comfort him while he was troubled, but Locke has yet to question her about it in person.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke can still often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group. He never officially enlisted, but due to being in the right place at the right time, he sometimes found himself on escort or scouting missions with them. The commander, '''Dweia Delacroix''', might remember his name if asked.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Free Wing Society :''' (Current FC) A company specializing in job placement with a 'Jack of All Trades' mentality led by '''[[Lilithium Altair]]'''. Locke has participated in several missions and odd jobs and can seen around Eorzea alongside several of its members. He may also be spotted at the company's house in the Goblet, whether he's meeting a group for a job, or just relaxing inside or outside.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Goldsmith's Guild :''' Because of Locke's interest and quick learning of mammets, the Coliseum procured an apprenticeship at the local Goldsmith's Guild. He spends many evenings there researching.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple-blue mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will use his abilities to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
: <i>(HEAVY WORK IN PROGRESS)</i>

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

<i>(Names are alphabetical according to color.)</i><br><br></center>

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#FF99CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili, and Locke has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a close friend as well. Her warmth and kindness has opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Kodomo :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually trusting each other enough to disclose information about their pasts. Locke is still reluctant to say much, but he has given her a small black vial for safekeeping.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Caelia Isularie]] :''' He first met Caelia en route to the Burning Wall with a few of the other Flame Yataghans. Once they parted, he did not hear from her for many months until running into her at the Yataghan barracks. The two briefly exchanged kind words, but nothing more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. They have conversed on a personal level only once, and Locke would like to work alongside her more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Since the matter concerning his change to Highlander (and incidentally, into Ghislan Nightwing, Lilithium Altair's late husband), Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious. She also appeared to him through a strange magic to comfort him while he was troubled, but Locke has yet to question her about it in person.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke can still often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group.

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

: <font style="color:#6600CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Romimo Romi]] :''' Romimo is a smart and talented Lalafell with a penchant for magic. She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#FF99CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society. He greatly respects Lili, and Locke has grown to trust her entirely--not just as his boss, but as a close friend as well. Her warmth and kindness has opened him up to her, and they have slowly become more affectionate over time. He feels very devoted to her, and he would not hesitate to be by her side at a moment's notice.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#00a1c3;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Coraliza Velia]] :''' A fellow Free Wing who Locke used to see fairly often around the company house. They get along quite well, each apologetic and polite, and Locke feels comfortable both conversing with her or simply sitting together in mutual quiet. They have shared their stories and Locke believes that she is someone he can trust. Lately, he has only seen her on very brief occasions, but he would like to catch up with her when possible.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Adokenai Kodomo :''' Lilithium's adopted Lalafellin child, Ado is a mischievous and curious boy who can always find an adventure. Locke thinks of him fondly, finding a little of his young self in the child.
: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''Kagewoe Erasus :''' One of the leaders of the Free Wings. Locke holds him in high regard, and the two seem to get along rather well. Locke's gullible side no doubt provides great fodder for Kage's sadistic ways.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Miata Luna]] :''' This energetic young Miqo'te musician often bumps into Locke around Ul'dah. The two have spent quite some time together, eventually trusting each other enough to disclose information about their pasts.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Dweia Delacroix :''' Locke has met and assisted Dweia on a couple occasions, but the interactions have been minimal. After showing great interest in Locke's mammet, Dweia offered to fund Locke's research into building more advanced mammets. However, Locke has not yet found the time to follow up on her request.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Elsa Vause :''' A wandering, homeless conjurer who Locke took under his care for an evening, giving her a tour of Ul'dah and buying her a room at the inn. Locke has not see her since.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Ennara Calian]] :''' As a fellow Free Wing, Locke sees this Highlander around the company house fairly often. They have conversed on a personal level only once, and Locke would like to work alongside her more.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Locke tends to feel a little uncomfortable around Kaohastraal, though he tries not to show it. Since the matter concerning his change to Highlander, Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium Altair.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious. She also appeared to him through a strange magic to comfort him while he was troubled, but Locke has yet to question her about it in person.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple-blue mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Locke's Personal Room (The Goblet, Ward 3, Plot 10 - X:8, Y:10)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (The Coliseum - X:9, Y:11)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30)

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will not hesitate to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
: <i>(HEAVY WORK IN PROGRESS)</i>

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

She and Locke grew up as close friends, and he sees her as a sort of younger sister. While the two have gone their separate ways since leaving their hometown, they do try to keep in touch every so often.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#FF99CC;" size="3">♥</font> '''[[Lilithium Altair]] :''' Locke's employer and leader of the Free Wing Society.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Iona C'mokkri :''' A feisty Miqo'te who competes regularly at the Coliseum. The two pass by each other on occasion, but due to Iona's popularity and success as a gladiator, Locke has difficulty getting to know her better. She can also be quite abrasive toward him, which leaves him feeling a little apprehensive.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Locke tends to feel a little uncomfortable around Kaohastraal, though he tries not to show it. Since the matter concerning his change to Highlander, Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium Altair.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Coliseum :''' When Locke arrived in Ul'dah, he shortly after became employed by its local coliseum. Mostly, he did odd jobs, but he soon acquainted himself with the staff and showed interest in the establishment's combat mammets. They offered to teach him how to maintain them, and Locke began growing in his knowledge of the machines. Despite this new skill, Locke can still often be seen running around Thanalan as the Coliseum's errand boy.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> '''Ul'dah, The Flame Yataghans :''' For a small while, Locke associated himself with this Ul'dahn military group.

===<div style="padding: 10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:15px;color:#5F5F5F;">BASIC INFO</div>===
====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Appearance</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> At first glance, Locke Rinannis (LOK Rih-NAN-iss) is just like everyone else. His height is fairly average for a Hyur, and he has no overly distinguishable features save for a fair complexion and blond hair that drifts over his teal eyes. He tends keep his arms covered, wearing gloves or long sleeves almost all the time.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Characteristics</div>====
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> The fingers of his right hand sometimes twitch, though he either doesn't notice or tries not to mind.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> A small purple-blue mammet trails never too far behind him.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Personality</div>====

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pleasant but distant:</b> On a typical day, Locke is good company to have around. He'll make small talk as needed and seems to show genuine interest in other people. However, despite his amiability, he tries to avoid close relationships. He will maintain a state of acquaintance for as long as possible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Peaceful:</b> Locke can often be found sitting quietly or taking a walk around town, deep in thought or simply people-watching. He enjoys the company of others but doesn't force it.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Encouraging:</b> Locke is an optimist. He's very good at seeing the positive side of things and always has a kind word to share.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Gullible:</b> During his short time in Ul'dah, Locke has been mugged at least four times due to sob stories involving orphans. He'll believe any tale as long as it sounds at least halfway plausible.
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Bad with names:</b> Expect him to get your name wrong (or ask you) multiple times before he gets it down. (He has recently been attempting the tactic of using a person's name several times in a conversation to remember it better, and it seems to be helping.)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>???:</b> Sometimes he may seem a bit paranoid or weary. This is usually coupled with mumblings about needing to sleep and actively trying to avoid all contact with others.

====<div style="padding:0px 15px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;text-decoration:none;border-bottom:1px dotted;">Usual RP Locations</div>====
: <i>Not limited to, but good starting places to find him. Send a /tell if you'd like to meet somewhere!</i>

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Locke's Personal Room (The Goblet, Ward 3, Plot 10 - X:8, Y:10)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (The Coliseum - X:9, Y:11)
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> Western Thanalan (Silver Bazaar - X:15, Y:30)

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">COMBAT</div>===
: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Pacifist:</b> In general, Locke dislikes violence and will avoid it when he can. However, he knows that it is sometimes necessary, and he will not hesitate to protect someone in danger.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Close-ranged:</b> He has been known to carry a shield and short sword or a dagger, but Locke is most often seen without a weapon at all. He prefers to disarm or grapple enemies over stabbing them in the gut.

: <font style="color:#BEC3BC;" size="3">►</font> <b>Low Aetheric Ability:</b> Locke does not have any apparent potential for magic. There may be some latent within him, but any attempts to physically conjure have been met with minimal results. However, even though he's not very good at using aether himself, he is quite knowledgeable about the technical and historical details (mostly due to Romimo's ramblings). Likewise, he has grown accustomed to aetheric travel and feels little to no nausea from it.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">BIOGRAPHY</div>===
: <i>(HEAVY WORK IN PROGRESS)</i>

: Locke is hesitant to speak of a few things concerning his past, but what is known is that he hails from Oakbarrow, a small town in the northeastern part of the Black Shroud, on the edge of Gridania's influence.

: Oakbarrow had the unfortunate coincidence of being located near a newly formed—but weak—aetheric rift. On occasion, voidsent would force their way through the rift, terrorizing the town and sowing fear into its residents. Locke, and others, learned to fight back and gained practical fighting experience against the voidsent. They became quite good at it, actually.

: After an undisclosed incident, Locke and Romimo both left their home and began traveling south. Eventually they reached Ul'dah, where Locke found work at the local Coliseum, repairing and maintaining its mammets and doing odd jobs.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Kaohastraal vas Aeseroix (aka "Sitting Ox" aka "Ghislan Nightwing") :''' A formidable Roegadyn (now Highlander) with a history immersed in matters of the void. Locke tends to feel a little uncomfortable around Kaohastraal, though he tries not to show it. Since the matter concerning his change to Highlander, Locke feels more unsettled than ever before, trying to carefully work through the situation considering his growing relationship with Lilithium Altair.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kal Numara]] :''' Locke enjoys being around Kal, a fierce and boisterous Highlander woman. Her good-natured and brutally honest attitude tends to put him in good spirits.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Kale Aideron]] :''' Locke is only somewhat acquainted with Kale, the commander (at the time) of Ul'dah's Flame Yataghans. After an incident at the Burning Wall several moons ago, Locke has not seen or heard from him.

: : <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Katiti Kati]]''' : As a Lalafellin schoolteacher in the Free Wing Society, Katiti is someone who Locke thinks highly of. He appreciates her responsible and matter-of-fact personality, but he can't say that he knows her well at all.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Khrys Relanah]] :''' A Seeker Miqo'te who purchased Locke at the Free Wing Society Date Auction. After a pleasant date with Khrys, the two parted ways feeling more acquainted with each other. He bumped into her again while finding out that she had joined the Free Wing Society, but he has not seen her since her orientation.

: <font style="color:#dd8600;" size="3"><b>!</b></font><font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Liandri Mei]] :''' A spirited Miqo'te, and Free Wing co-worker, who Locke has observed getting into trouble on multiple occasions. Although he does not agree with her aggressive attitude, he sees no reason to judge her and leaves her to her own devices. He has seen first-hand just a piece of what she is capable of, and it fills him with unease.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Mizore Dorne]] :''' Aside from working together on a mission from the Free Wing Society, Locke has not had much opportunity to talk with Mizore. She did, however, leave a lasting mark on him by being unabashedly flirtatious. She also appeared to him through a strange magic to comfort him while he was troubled, but Locke has yet to question her about it in person.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''[[Nako'li Chalahko]] :''' One of the leaders of the Flame Yataghans. He only saw this Miqo'te on occasion after the assignment at the Burning Wall.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Nymira Valeroyant :''' Although Locke does not know Nymira well, he respects her as both a Free Wing leader and an experienced physician. She seems very kind, but Locke can't say much more than that.

: <font style="color:#8f8377;" size="3">●</font> '''Toff Vaughnn :''' Locke and this Keeper Miqo'te have exchanged small conversation in passing, and their personalities seem to balance each other well. Unfortunately, time nor opportunity has arisen to progress the relationship further.
