== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Other Notes ==
Tumbler: https://chidorifarcloud.tumblr.com/

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

* Work related. Need a hunter for hire? Come see us at The Wandering Tonberry. I would really love to start interacting with other Free Companies.
* Friends, couple friends.
* Open to a fair bit, just ask! The only thing out as she is married is romantic RP. Even then, folks can try if they wish - just will more than likely go poorly.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

: ♥ [[Kaori Farcloud]] :(Deceased) Kaori was a kind woman with the most gentle of smiles. She loved all her children dearly, often watching them play in the gardens as she looked on.

: ♥ [[Sakashi Farcloud]] : (Deceased) Chidori's sister in-law. (WIP)

: ♥ [[Chappa Rappa]] : Chappa found Chi among the refugees,taking the bright eyed raen as an assistant. He became very dear to her. They would often be seen tinkering with this and that, most the time having a ill response to something they built. She regarded him as her sensei, learning much from him.

: ♥[[Roger Holmes]] : Roger was the first friendly face Chidori met during her arrival. The two became every close, shifting from a friendly relationship to one of a more romantic nature. She loves him with all her heart and would do anything for his happiness.

== Other Notes ==
Tumbler: https://chidorifarcloud.tumblr.com/

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old.

However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea.

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

* Work related. Need a hunter for hire? Come see us at The Wandering Tonberry. I would really love to start interacting with other Free Companies.
* Friends, couple friends.
* Open to a fair bit, just ask! The only thing out as she is married is romantic RP. Even then, folks can try if they wish - just will more than likely go poorly.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal.

However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Brothers Knoltros (0-14)'' ====

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wet nurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

==== ''To Ishghard (14-16) '' ====

Everything that could have once been considered Flynt's was now gone. What surprised him about this however, was the strange sense of excitement it made him feel. He was still lonely, and a large part of him worried that he might not survive the journey that he was preparing to take. Over the years Flynt had discovered a passion for sparring and combat, specifically with the spear. Flynt spent countless mornings and afternoons training with the bronze skinned spear fisherman who lined the various piers of Limsa's lower quarters. In addition to their fishing techniques, these men had developed a rudimentary combat system based around their tools of the trade. Flynt trained fanatically with these men, doing whatever odd job or menial task they asked of him in exchange for more time to learn the way of the spear.

During that time Flynt had heard stories of legendary warriors in the north who had taken the art of the spear to a new level, and who fought in the skies themselves against evil beasts in order to protect their land. Flynt had always dreamed of leaving Limsa and travelling north to train with these majestic warriors. With nothing left but a simple spear and travelling supplies (purchased by the kindly Dallet), then seemed as good a time as any to make that dream a reality. It took months for Flynt to reach the outskirts of Coerthas, and there was more than one occasion where he was certain that he would not make it. He nearly found himself posting up in Gridania upon seeing the Wood Wailers and discovering the Lancer's Guild located within the city. He spent close to two months in Gridania, studying almost non-stop with the instructors of the Lancer's Guild. He took whatever jobs they would give him, from searching for lost pets to exterminating minor vermin that migrated too close to the city's limits.

All of this preparation was in pursuit of one goal, and though he had gotten a bit sidetracked he had not forgotten. Feeling more confident than ever Flynt finally arrived in Falcon’s Nest. It was a small town, south of Camp Riversmeet and less than a day’s ride from Ishgard itself. It was here that he sought entrance into the prestigious ranks of the Ishgardian Dragoons, and where he also discovered the incredible distrust and xenophobia commonly found in Ishgardian citizens. Flynt spent the first three weeks sleeping in barns and living off of the little gil he had, coupled with what he could hunt for himself. The largely Elezen and Hyur population seemed to be very unhappy with a young Miqo’te in their midst, with the kindest people ignoring him and the worst openly berating him in the streets.

==== ''Out of the Darkness (16-16) '' ====

Then the ebb and flow of the Dravanian attacks began to increase, and all those who could fight in Falcon’s Nest were “summoned” to the Holy City. Flynt had tried multiple times to get into the mighty city of Ishgard, only to be turned back every time by the Gate of Judgement’s sentries. Now however, bodies were needed and homeless Miqo’te’s were good enough to die for The Arch-Bishop. These new recruits, most of whom had never held a spear, spent the next four weeks in a simple training regimen that made them just competent enough to die without looking foolish. Flynt however was a different case. His previous training and experience, coupled with his natural affinity for the spear enabled him to spend less of his time reviewing the basics and more of it training with career foot soldiers and lower knights. After the completion of their training, the new recruits were sent south again to augment the forces of a mid level lord in House Dzemael. Fate however had something else planned, and most would never make it to Lord Calieur's however.

While on the road south, Flynt's Company was attacked by a roving pack of wyverns. Nearly all of Flynt's Company was killed in the initial attack, and Flynt saw firsthand the horrors of battle as the scaled beasts tore apart and devoured the men around him. Flynt fled with two other men and their Commanding Officer, Dalinat Calieur, the eldest son of Lord Calieur and fledgling Dragoon, whose first assignment had been to collect this new batch of recruits. The young Lieutenant was injured in the initial skirmish, leaving Flynt and two others to carry the man to safety. A few hours after they fled it became apparent that they were being hunted, and decisions needed to be made on how they would continue. The forest which they had fled into granted them some safety, as it forced their scaled foes to track them on foot and the density of the trees slowed the Goobbue sized creatures. They were pursued into the night, and the other two men, fearing that the rogue wyvern or wyverns that were gaining ground, left Flynt and Dalinat to die.

==== ''Redemption and Rebirth (16-28) '' ====

The details of what happened within those woods and on the roads back to Camp Riversmeet are unknown. What is known is that a week after the entire Company had been declared dead, Flynt and Dalinat arrived at Camp Riversmeet. Dalinat was near dead, the wound he had sustained had only gotten worse due to a lack of treatment and constant movement. Flynt, while in better shape, looked far worse. He returned nearly delirious, covered in blood and gore, with his chest and hands covered in first and second degree burns. In near delirium the two were rushed to the camps healers and nursed back to health over the course of a week. During this time Flynt battled endless Dravanian foes in his fevered dreams, standing on the very edge of death and defeat. In his brief moments of lucidity, he remembered being visited by a kindly old priest who assured him that as long as he were to believe, Halone would continue to protect and guide him. His final fever dream ended with the bronze shield and three spears of Halone coming to him at his most dire moment and vanquishing the enemies that tormented him. When Flynt awoke he immediately pledged unending faith in The Fury, and prayed on the side of his bed until the nurses and healers forced him to stop and rest.

A few days after Flynt was taken off of bed rest, Dalinat awoke. A few days after Dalinat and his father, Lord Calieur summoned Flynt to appear before them. It was there that Lord Calieur gave his thanks to the young Miqo’te who saved not only his son, but his legacy. Hardly a heartbeat passed in between the time that Lord Calieur asked what he could do in return and Flynt’s response. He wished to become an Ishgardian Knight, a Dragoon in the service of Lord Calieur. He swore fealty to Lord Calieur and in turn, Halone. Though initially hesitant, Lord Calieur honored Flynt’s request and ensured that, if he completed his training he would be a Knight Dragoon under his service. For more than two years Flynt underwent the vigorous training that would turn men to Knights of the Sky. Though trained, Flynt's skills with the lance were far inferior to that of his peers. These men had received formal training with the spear since they could stand, whereas much of what Flynt learned was either self taught or from the little instruction he got in the Lancer's Guild and in the Holy City before his run in with the wyverns. Daily sparring left Flynt nearly paralyzed by pain and injury. He continued to train however, and with every duel, every exercise, he grew more skilled. Lord Calieur was not happy with Flynt only being competent in the martial sense however. At night, Flynt's tutor would arrive to instruct him on the history of Ishgard, the teachings of the Arch-Bishop and Halone, and of the famous works of Eorzea.

Upon completion of his training, Flynt was assigned to Dalinat's Company. Now a Captain, and a battle hardened Knight of Ishgard, Dalinat had become a respected Company Commander who fought on the frontlines against the Dravanian horde. Then Dalamud fell. Bahamut's rage swept over Eorzea, and the very landscape of Coerthas bent to his will. Bitter cold swept in, and snow fell with seemingly no end. The Dravanian beasts became emboldened, attacking outlying towns and cities in numbers not seen in hundreds of years. In these dark times the Dragon Knights of Ishgard fought tooth and nail to secure their borders and protect their people, but as time passed, the grim reality of their situation began to sink in. With every victory, tens of people were exposed to dragonkin capable of tainting the hearts of men. These men, women and children were branded heretics, and their execution mandated by the Arch-Bishop himself. Those suspected of hiding these heretics were tortured and killed to ensure no tainted citizens roamed the streets. On behalf of Lord Calieur and Halone, Flynt committed unspeakable acts, acts that he cannot to this day ask redemption for.

The exact details of Flynt's depature from Coerthas and how he came into possession of the Red Wyvern, a Calieur family heirloom, are unknown. What is known is that Flynt resurfaced in Limsa Lominsa, working in a tavern as a doorman until the company went out of business and many of its members disappeared. He then disappeared for close to a year along with his brother Nipan, their destination and goals unknown. Now the two have returned, with only a plan and a pocket full of gil to achieve their goals.

==== ''Tonberries in Stride (29-31) '' ====

The return of the Brother’s Knoltros to Limsa Lominsa went largely unnoticed, and why wouldn’t it? The two were far from well known, and even further from successful. That however, was about to change. During their travels the two had stumbled upon an idea so simple and perfect, it had to succeed. They would go in business together, with Flynt hunting large and dangerous game and Nipan trading the goods and exotic items that Flynt stumbled upon in his work. But just as moderate success came to the two, Nipan saw his brother falling into old habits. Nipan had hoped their time away would have helped his brother heal, but it seemed to only delay the return of his subconscious desire to die. Flynt had returned to taking the most dangerous marks he could find and drinking far too much when he could not find work he deemed worth taking.

And then he met her. Later, Flynt would reflect on the significance of that moment and how it affected him. At the moment however, it really was that simple and that profound, then he met /her/. She'd been working as a bodyguard for an incredibly frustrating young woman Flynt had met several days prior, mid binge. He'd wouldn't admit it, even to himself, but some part of him knew the moment he met her that he was in love. His limited social skill coupled with his 'prickly' demeanor however did him few favors, and after nearly coming to blows with another group of men after their first meeting she'd look at him like everyone else: A monster.

He began to ask about her more, discovering she was both a skilled hunter and tracker, and took a lot of side work out of Limsa as well. As such, he began taking more and more jobs out of the City-State and pretending he was not doing so in the small chance she would also be there. Finally, after a few failed attempts at summoning up some courage, he met with her at the Bismark and struck up a conversation. While she initially seemed rather guarded, they seemed to hit it off rather quickly.

Ritsu Arlow was the youngest daughter of Genma Arlow, a wealthy and renowned bowyer from Gridania. She had fled from her life in the Shroud to avoid an arranged marriage and escape her father's overbearing nature. For a few brief hours Flynt's fears and anger were washed away. Before departing he mentioned his work, asking if she would be interested in working together to split the earnings on a few marks. It was truly at this moment, that the Wandering Tonberry Trading Company was born.

For the next few moons, Flynt found himself spending more and more time with Ritsu. While he'd thought himself a skilled tracker, he found himself nowhere near as skilled as her and quickly learned everything he could from her on the art. He shared with her his knowledge of various beasts and means in which to fell them. She also helped in getting him out more, meeting new people. She introduced him to Roger, a friend of hers and a man who would quickly become both Flynt's close friend and personal rival.

The three would become the base of the company, though many other staples of the Lodge were soon to follow. Tah'al Rael and her daughter Celestus soon joined their ranks, skilled warriors with a mysterious past. Raik Samil, a cheerful mercenary and friend of Roger's who aided The Wanderers on more than a few occasions before joining up. Things were good for a time, and slowly Flynt found himself feeling less alone and less angry...

It was then Flynt met Canis Latrans.

== Personality ==

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Is very critical of himself, and his failings when it comes to being a leader.

• When it comes to those closest to him, he can many times default to the simplest, and often most ruthless, course of action in order to protect his people.

• Holds others often times to his own standards, and gets angry when others don't agree with, or meet them.

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing his wife, or having her grow to fear or hate him.

• Failing as a leader, and getting those he's charged with hurt or killed.

• Slowly changing, as Dalinat did.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• He is an incredibly skilled spearman, and trains several hours a day to master his art. He has taken on several students now, and spends several hours a week at the Lancer's Guild in Gridania aiding as a guest instructor where he is needed.

• Excellent composure & tactically savvy. Years of fighting Dravanian hordes has made him difficult to shock in a combat scenario, thus providing him impressive decision making skills in small, fluid engagements.

• Over the years, Flynt has slowly accepted his role as the leader of his people. Previously he hid behind the idea of 'just being in charge', and only recent events have forced him to come into his own and sees himself as a true leader. While he doesn't see it, he's apparently proven to be rather good at it.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Dark Blue

*'''Food: '''Wineport’s Dragonbreath Chili.

*'''Drinks: '''Yarb’s Fall Pumpkin Ale.

*'''Scent:''' Decomposing/Burning leaves.

*'''Place:''' Knoltros Abby, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' All Saint’s Wake.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• Bestia infirmitatem – A large tome (that is mostly blank), which Flynt hopes to fill with information on the various monsters that wander Hydaelyn.

• Coin Pouch – Typically with little to 500-2000 gil in coins or notes inside.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• The Red Wyvern – Once a modified Guisarme and heirloom of the Calieur family as well as the focal point behind Flynt's departure from Ishgard. The weapon was damaged heavily in Flynt's battle with Dalinat Calieur, and Flynt had it reforged soon after converting it into materia to affix to the next. This less perfect version was also badly damaged after the last battle with Canis Latrans, and for some time the weapon's legacy seemed all but gone. Nearly a cycle later Flynt found himself prepared to remake the Calieur family heirloom, and the newest iteration of the Red Wyvern was born, melded with the materia of its forerunners.

• Mythril Boot Knife – A simple boot knife... Not nearly as cool as his spear.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• None in the traditional sense. That said, years studying the ancient arts of the spear and the dragoon have instilled in him the ability to perform some of the extraordinary feats associated with the order of the Dragoon. His weapon, The Red Wyvern, also seems to have some magical properties though the extent of which is known only by his wife, Roger and few others.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Ritsu Arlow]] : Flynt's right hand within The Wandering Tonberry Trading Co., one of the first friends he made upon his return, and the love of his life. Upon their first meeting, Flynt felt an immediate connection with the Elezen archer. Her stoic and somewhat quiet demeanor matched his own, and two seemingly cold people found companionship in one another. As they spent more time together, first hunting and then fighting side by side, Flynt slowly found himself falling in love with what he considered to be the woman of his dreams. They have had their fair share of trials, both nearly losing themselves along the way and those closest to them. Now however, even with things still in chaos, Flynt finds himself slowly piecing himself back together and becoming the man he thinks she deserves.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Flynt's closest friend, and the third key piece to the Wandering Tonberry's continued success. On the surface the two appear to be almost complete opposites, Roger much more at ease in social settings and not as outwardly gloomy or brooding as Flynt. Underneath these superficial differences, the two are much more alike than different. Roger has helped provide Flynt with countless insights, as well as valuable advice on how the three should proceed when Flynt's own vision was clouded by anger or fear.

: ♥ [[Asura Anata]] : While Flynt would never admit it, other than Roger Asura or "Ta" is one of Flynt's closest and most trusted friends, and the two seems to share a bond of nonverbal means of communication. This however does not stop the two from butting heads from time to time, or almost coming to blows. Ta (as Flynt calls her) has served a lot of roles for Flynt, from informant, to advisor, to teacher and friend. She has been there at Flynt's weakest or most broken, and has drug him out of his own funk whether he liked it or not.

: ♥ [[Celestus Shinozaki]] : Flynt and Celestus have always had an interesting dynamic, similar to that of Flynt and Asura's, but very different at the same time. Early on, Flynt found Celestus to be a very calm, level headed and agreeable sort. He spoke with her on more than one occasion to get her opinion and insight in regards to certain problems or situations he faced. Flynt had promised her, and Ta that he would protect them, and as long as they were in his Lodge, they were his people. An ill fated day in Coerthas changed all of that, and for months Flynt believed her dead and blamed himself for that completely. Since her return however, that small weight has been lifted, though he still secretly blames himself for making the call that nearly got her killed.

: ♥ [[Raik Samil]] : Raik, like Roger is like a brother to him. Since they've met Raik has been not only fiercely loyal, but incredibly effective. Even in the face of incredible danger and almost certain death, Raik has kept his laid back and happy demeanor. Raik serves as the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms, and takes his work protecting the Lodge very seriously. Flynt loves sparring with Raik, even if his body doesn't and in many ways is jealous of the man's outlook and how he handles his own past and demons.

: ♥ [[Reiner Dorn]] : Flynt's relationship with Reiner has always been rather complex, but through it all he has no doubt that every piece of it was for the better. Reiner first came to The Wandering Tonberry looking for work and a place to stay. He also met Flynt's soon to be sister-in-law, Karin, who offered to aid in teaching him more about magic and how to utilize his own. As Reiner and Flynt interacted more, the two fell into a natural rhythm, with Reiner serving as the Sergeant to his Lieutenant. Flynt felt comfortable having someone with a traditional military background who could relate and understand both his mannerisms and reasoning behind his actions. Events outside both of their control forced them onto different paths, but both men still consider each other brothers and make themselves available however and whenever they can.

: ♥ [[Leah Leyweaver]]

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Brothers Knoltros (0-14)'' ====

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wet nurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

==== ''To Ishghard (14-16) '' ====

Everything that could have once been considered Flynt's was now gone. What surprised him about this however, was the strange sense of excitement it made him feel. He was still lonely, and a large part of him worried that he might not survive the journey that he was preparing to take. Over the years Flynt had discovered a passion for sparring and combat, specifically with the spear. Flynt spent countless mornings and afternoons training with the bronze skinned spear fisherman who lined the various piers of Limsa's lower quarters. In addition to their fishing techniques, these men had developed a rudimentary combat system based around their tools of the trade. Flynt trained fanatically with these men, doing whatever odd job or menial task they asked of him in exchange for more time to learn the way of the spear.

During that time Flynt had heard stories of legendary warriors in the north who had taken the art of the spear to a new level, and who fought in the skies themselves against evil beasts in order to protect their land. Flynt had always dreamed of leaving Limsa and travelling north to train with these majestic warriors. With nothing left but a simple spear and travelling supplies (purchased by the kindly Dallet), then seemed as good a time as any to make that dream a reality. It took months for Flynt to reach the outskirts of Coerthas, and there was more than one occasion where he was certain that he would not make it. He nearly found himself posting up in Gridania upon seeing the Wood Wailers and discovering the Lancer's Guild located within the city. He spent close to two months in Gridania, studying almost non-stop with the instructors of the Lancer's Guild. He took whatever jobs they would give him, from searching for lost pets to exterminating minor vermin that migrated too close to the city's limits.

All of this preparation was in pursuit of one goal, and though he had gotten a bit sidetracked he had not forgotten. Feeling more confident than ever Flynt finally arrived in Falcon’s Nest. It was a small town, south of Camp Riversmeet and less than a day’s ride from Ishgard itself. It was here that he sought entrance into the prestigious ranks of the Ishgardian Dragoons, and where he also discovered the incredible distrust and xenophobia commonly found in Ishgardian citizens. Flynt spent the first three weeks sleeping in barns and living off of the little gil he had, coupled with what he could hunt for himself. The largely Elezen and Hyur population seemed to be very unhappy with a young Miqo’te in their midst, with the kindest people ignoring him and the worst openly berating him in the streets.

==== ''Out of the Darkness (16-16) '' ====

Then the ebb and flow of the Dravanian attacks began to increase, and all those who could fight in Falcon’s Nest were “summoned” to the Holy City. Flynt had tried multiple times to get into the mighty city of Ishgard, only to be turned back every time by the Gate of Judgement’s sentries. Now however, bodies were needed and homeless Miqo’te’s were good enough to die for The Arch-Bishop. These new recruits, most of whom had never held a spear, spent the next four weeks in a simple training regimen that made them just competent enough to die without looking foolish. Flynt however was a different case. His previous training and experience, coupled with his natural affinity for the spear enabled him to spend less of his time reviewing the basics and more of it training with career foot soldiers and lower knights. After the completion of their training, the new recruits were sent south again to augment the forces of a mid level lord in House Dzemael. Fate however had something else planned, and most would never make it to Lord Calieur's however.

While on the road south, Flynt's Company was attacked by a roving pack of wyverns. Nearly all of Flynt's Company was killed in the initial attack, and Flynt saw firsthand the horrors of battle as the scaled beasts tore apart and devoured the men around him. Flynt fled with two other men and their Commanding Officer, Dalinat Calieur, the eldest son of Lord Calieur and fledgling Dragoon, whose first assignment had been to collect this new batch of recruits. The young Lieutenant was injured in the initial skirmish, leaving Flynt and two others to carry the man to safety. A few hours after they fled it became apparent that they were being hunted, and decisions needed to be made on how they would continue. The forest which they had fled into granted them some safety, as it forced their scaled foes to track them on foot and the density of the trees slowed the Goobbue sized creatures. They were pursued into the night, and the other two men, fearing that the rogue wyvern or wyverns that were gaining ground, left Flynt and Dalinat to die.

==== ''Redemption and Rebirth (16-28) '' ====

The details of what happened within those woods and on the roads back to Camp Riversmeet are unknown. What is known is that a week after the entire Company had been declared dead, Flynt and Dalinat arrived at Camp Riversmeet. Dalinat was near dead, the wound he had sustained had only gotten worse due to a lack of treatment and constant movement. Flynt, while in better shape, looked far worse. He returned nearly delirious, covered in blood and gore, with his chest and hands covered in first and second degree burns. In near delirium the two were rushed to the camps healers and nursed back to health over the course of a week. During this time Flynt battled endless Dravanian foes in his fevered dreams, standing on the very edge of death and defeat. In his brief moments of lucidity, he remembered being visited by a kindly old priest who assured him that as long as he were to believe, Halone would continue to protect and guide him. His final fever dream ended with the bronze shield and three spears of Halone coming to him at his most dire moment and vanquishing the enemies that tormented him. When Flynt awoke he immediately pledged unending faith in The Fury, and prayed on the side of his bed until the nurses and healers forced him to stop and rest.

A few days after Flynt was taken off of bed rest, Dalinat awoke. A few days after Dalinat and his father, Lord Calieur summoned Flynt to appear before them. It was there that Lord Calieur gave his thanks to the young Miqo’te who saved not only his son, but his legacy. Hardly a heartbeat passed in between the time that Lord Calieur asked what he could do in return and Flynt’s response. He wished to become an Ishgardian Knight, a Dragoon in the service of Lord Calieur. He swore fealty to Lord Calieur and in turn, Halone. Though initially hesitant, Lord Calieur honored Flynt’s request and ensured that, if he completed his training he would be a Knight Dragoon under his service. For more than two years Flynt underwent the vigorous training that would turn men to Knights of the Sky. Though trained, Flynt's skills with the lance were far inferior to that of his peers. These men had received formal training with the spear since they could stand, whereas much of what Flynt learned was either self taught or from the little instruction he got in the Lancer's Guild and in the Holy City before his run in with the wyverns. Daily sparring left Flynt nearly paralyzed by pain and injury. He continued to train however, and with every duel, every exercise, he grew more skilled. Lord Calieur was not happy with Flynt only being competent in the martial sense however. At night, Flynt's tutor would arrive to instruct him on the history of Ishgard, the teachings of the Arch-Bishop and Halone, and of the famous works of Eorzea.

Upon completion of his training, Flynt was assigned to Dalinat's Company. Now a Captain, and a battle hardened Knight of Ishgard, Dalinat had become a respected Company Commander who fought on the frontlines against the Dravanian horde. Then Dalamud fell. Bahamut's rage swept over Eorzea, and the very landscape of Coerthas bent to his will. Bitter cold swept in, and snow fell with seemingly no end. The Dravanian beasts became emboldened, attacking outlying towns and cities in numbers not seen in hundreds of years. In these dark times the Dragon Knights of Ishgard fought tooth and nail to secure their borders and protect their people, but as time passed, the grim reality of their situation began to sink in. With every victory, tens of people were exposed to dragonkin capable of tainting the hearts of men. These men, women and children were branded heretics, and their execution mandated by the Arch-Bishop himself. Those suspected of hiding these heretics were tortured and killed to ensure no tainted citizens roamed the streets. On behalf of Lord Calieur and Halone, Flynt committed unspeakable acts, acts that he cannot to this day ask redemption for.

The exact details of Flynt's depature from Coerthas and how he came into possession of the Red Wyvern, a Calieur family heirloom, are unknown. What is known is that Flynt resurfaced in Limsa Lominsa, working in a tavern as a doorman until the company went out of business and many of its members disappeared. He then disappeared for close to a year along with his brother Nipan, their destination and goals unknown. Now the two have returned, with only a plan and a pocket full of gil to achieve their goals.

==== ''Tonberries in Stride (29-31) '' ====

The return of the Brother’s Knoltros to Limsa Lominsa went largely unnoticed, and why wouldn’t it? The two were far from well known, and even further from successful. That however, was about to change. During their travels the two had stumbled upon an idea so simple and perfect, it had to succeed. They would go in business together, with Flynt hunting large and dangerous game and Nipan trading the goods and exotic items that Flynt stumbled upon in his work. But just as moderate success came to the two, Nipan saw his brother falling into old habits. Nipan had hoped their time away would have helped his brother heal, but it seemed to only delay the return of his subconscious desire to die. Flynt had returned to taking the most dangerous marks he could find and drinking far too much when he could not find work he deemed worth taking.

And then he met her. Later, Flynt would reflect on the significance of that moment and how it affected him. At the moment however, it really was that simple and that profound, then he met /her/. She'd been working as a bodyguard for an incredibly frustrating young woman Flynt had met several days prior, mid binge. He'd wouldn't admit it, even to himself, but some part of him knew the moment he met her that he was in love. His limited social skill coupled with his 'prickly' demeanor however did him few favors, and after nearly coming to blows with another group of men after their first meeting she'd look at him like everyone else: A monster.

He began to ask about her more, discovering she was both a skilled hunter and tracker, and took a lot of side work out of Limsa as well. As such, he began taking more and more jobs out of the City-State and pretending he was not doing so in the small chance she would also be there. Finally, after a few failed attempts at summoning up some courage, he met with her at the Bismark and struck up a conversation. While she initially seemed rather guarded, they seemed to hit it off rather quickly.

Ritsu Arlow was the youngest daughter of Genma Arlow, a wealthy and renowned bowyer from Gridania. She had fled from her life in the Shroud to avoid an arranged marriage and escape her father's overbearing nature. For a few brief hours Flynt's fears and anger were washed away. Before departing he mentioned his work, asking if she would be interested in working together to split the earnings on a few marks. It was truly at this moment, that the Wandering Tonberry Trading Company was born.

For the next few moons, Flynt found himself spending more and more time with Ritsu. While he'd thought himself a skilled tracker, he found himself nowhere near as skilled as her and quickly learned everything he could from her on the art. He shared with her his knowledge of various beasts and means in which to fell them. She also helped in getting him out more, meeting new people. She introduced him to Roger, a friend of hers and a man who would quickly become both Flynt's close friend and personal rival.

The three would become the base of the company, though many other staples of the Lodge were soon to follow. Tah'al Rael and her daughter Celestus soon joined their ranks, skilled warriors with a mysterious past. Raik Samil, a cheerful mercenary and friend of Roger's who aided The Wanderers on more than a few occasions before joining up. Things were good for a time, and slowly Flynt found himself feeling less alone and less angry...

It was then Flynt met Canis Latrans.

== Personality ==

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Is very critical of himself, and his failings when it comes to being a leader.

• When it comes to those closest to him, he can many times default to the simplest, and often most ruthless, course of action in order to protect his people.

• Holds others often times to his own standards, and gets angry when others don't agree with, or meet them.

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing his wife, or having her grow to fear or hate him.

• Failing as a leader, and getting those he's charged with hurt or killed.

• Slowly changing, as Dalinat did.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• He is an incredibly skilled spearman, and trains several hours a day to master his art. He has taken on several students now, and spends several hours a week at the Lancer's Guild in Gridania aiding as a guest instructor where he is needed.

• Excellent composure & tactically savvy. Years of fighting Dravanian hordes has made him difficult to shock in a combat scenario, thus providing him impressive decision making skills in small, fluid engagements.

• Over the years, Flynt has slowly accepted his role as the leader of his people. Previously he hid behind the idea of 'just being in charge', and only recent events have forced him to come into his own and sees himself as a true leader. While he doesn't see it, he's apparently proven to be rather good at it.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Dark Blue

*'''Food: '''Wineport’s Dragonbreath Chili.

*'''Drinks: '''Yarb’s Fall Pumpkin Ale.

*'''Scent:''' Decomposing/Burning leaves.

*'''Place:''' Knoltros Abby, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' All Saint’s Wake.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• Bestia infirmitatem – A large tome (that is mostly blank), which Flynt hopes to fill with information on the various monsters that wander Hydaelyn.

• Coin Pouch – Typically with little to 500-2000 gil in coins or notes inside.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• The Red Wyvern – Once a modified Guisarme and heirloom of the Calieur family as well as the focal point behind Flynt's departure from Ishgard. The weapon was damaged heavily in Flynt's battle with Dalinat Calieur, and Flynt had it reforged soon after converting it into materia to affix to the next. This less perfect version was also badly damaged after the last battle with Canis Latrans, and for some time the weapon's legacy seemed all but gone. Nearly a cycle later Flynt found himself prepared to remake the Calieur family heirloom, and the newest iteration of the Red Wyvern was born, melded with the materia of its forerunners.

• Mythril Boot Knife – A simple boot knife... Not nearly as cool as his spear.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• None in the traditional sense. That said, years studying the ancient arts of the spear and the dragoon have instilled in him the ability to perform some of the extraordinary feats associated with the order of the Dragoon. His weapon, The Red Wyvern, also seems to have some magical properties though the extent of which is known only by his wife, Roger and few others.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Ritsu Arlow]] : Flynt's right hand within The Wandering Tonberry Trading Co., one of the first friends he made upon his return, and the love of his life. Upon their first meeting, Flynt felt an immediate connection with the Elezen archer. Her stoic and somewhat quiet demeanor matched his own, and two seemingly cold people found companionship in one another. As they spent more time together, first hunting and then fighting side by side, Flynt slowly found himself falling in love with what he considered to be the woman of his dreams. They have had their fair share of trials, both nearly losing themselves along the way and those closest to them. Now however, even with things still in chaos, Flynt finds himself slowly piecing himself back together and becoming the man he thinks she deserves.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Flynt's closest friend, and the third key piece to the Wandering Tonberry's continued success. On the surface the two appear to be almost complete opposites, Roger much more at ease in social settings and not as outwardly gloomy or brooding as Flynt. Underneath these superficial differences, the two are much more alike than different. Roger has helped provide Flynt with countless insights, as well as valuable advice on how the three should proceed when Flynt's own vision was clouded by anger or fear.

: ♥ [[Asura Anata]] : While Flynt would never admit it, other than Roger Asura or "Ta" is one of Flynt's closest and most trusted friends, and the two seems to share a bond of nonverbal means of communication. This however does not stop the two from butting heads from time to time, or almost coming to blows. Ta (as Flynt calls her) has served a lot of roles for Flynt, from informant, to advisor, to teacher and friend. She has been there at Flynt's weakest or most broken, and has drug him out of his own funk whether he liked it or not.

: ♥ [[Celestus Shinozaki]] : Flynt and Celestus have always had an interesting dynamic, similar to that of Flynt and Asura's, but very different at the same time. Early on, Flynt found Celestus to be a very calm, level headed and agreeable sort. He spoke with her on more than one occasion to get her opinion and insight in regards to certain problems or situations he faced. Flynt had promised her, and Ta that he would protect them, and as long as they were in his Lodge, they were his people. An ill fated day in Coerthas changed all of that, and for months Flynt believed her dead and blamed himself for that completely. Since her return however, that small weight has been lifted, though he still secretly blames himself for making the call that nearly got her killed.

: ♥ [[Raik Samil]] : Raik, like Roger is like a brother to him. Since they've met Raik has been not only fiercely loyal, but incredibly effective. Even in the face of incredible danger and almost certain death, Raik has kept his laid back and happy demeanor. Raik serves as the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms, and takes his work protecting the Lodge very seriously. Flynt loves sparring with Raik, even if his body doesn't and in many ways is jealous of the man's outlook and how he handles his own past and demons.

: ♥ [[Reiner Dorn]] : Flynt's relationship with Reiner has always been rather complex, but through it all he has no doubt that every piece of it was for the better. Reiner first came to The Wandering Tonberry looking for work and a place to stay. He also met Flynt's soon to be sister-in-law, Karin, who offered to aid in teaching him more about magic and how to utilize his own. As Reiner and Flynt interacted more, the two fell into a natural rhythm, with Reiner serving as the Sergeant to his Lieutenant. Flynt felt comfortable having someone with a traditional military background who could relate and understand both his mannerisms and reasoning behind his actions. Events outside both of their control forced them onto different paths, but both men still consider each other brothers and make themselves available however and whenever they can.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Brothers Knoltros (0-14)'' ====

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wet nurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

==== ''To Ishghard (14-16) '' ====

Everything that could have once been considered Flynt's was now gone. What surprised him about this however, was the strange sense of excitement it made him feel. He was still lonely, and a large part of him worried that he might not survive the journey that he was preparing to take. Over the years Flynt had discovered a passion for sparring and combat, specifically with the spear. Flynt spent countless mornings and afternoons training with the bronze skinned spear fisherman who lined the various piers of Limsa's lower quarters. In addition to their fishing techniques, these men had developed a rudimentary combat system based around their tools of the trade. Flynt trained fanatically with these men, doing whatever odd job or menial task they asked of him in exchange for more time to learn the way of the spear.

During that time Flynt had heard stories of legendary warriors in the north who had taken the art of the spear to a new level, and who fought in the skies themselves against evil beasts in order to protect their land. Flynt had always dreamed of leaving Limsa and travelling north to train with these majestic warriors. With nothing left but a simple spear and travelling supplies (purchased by the kindly Dallet), then seemed as good a time as any to make that dream a reality. It took months for Flynt to reach the outskirts of Coerthas, and there was more than one occasion where he was certain that he would not make it. He nearly found himself posting up in Gridania upon seeing the Wood Wailers and discovering the Lancer's Guild located within the city. He spent close to two months in Gridania, studying almost non-stop with the instructors of the Lancer's Guild. He took whatever jobs they would give him, from searching for lost pets to exterminating minor vermin that migrated too close to the city's limits.

All of this preparation was in pursuit of one goal, and though he had gotten a bit sidetracked he had not forgotten. Feeling more confident than ever Flynt finally arrived in Falcon’s Nest. It was a small town, south of Camp Riversmeet and less than a day’s ride from Ishgard itself. It was here that he sought entrance into the prestigious ranks of the Ishgardian Dragoons, and where he also discovered the incredible distrust and xenophobia commonly found in Ishgardian citizens. Flynt spent the first three weeks sleeping in barns and living off of the little gil he had, coupled with what he could hunt for himself. The largely Elezen and Hyur population seemed to be very unhappy with a young Miqo’te in their midst, with the kindest people ignoring him and the worst openly berating him in the streets.

==== ''Out of the Darkness (16-16) '' ====

Then the ebb and flow of the Dravanian attacks began to increase, and all those who could fight in Falcon’s Nest were “summoned” to the Holy City. Flynt had tried multiple times to get into the mighty city of Ishgard, only to be turned back every time by the Gate of Judgement’s sentries. Now however, bodies were needed and homeless Miqo’te’s were good enough to die for The Arch-Bishop. These new recruits, most of whom had never held a spear, spent the next four weeks in a simple training regimen that made them just competent enough to die without looking foolish. Flynt however was a different case. His previous training and experience, coupled with his natural affinity for the spear enabled him to spend less of his time reviewing the basics and more of it training with career foot soldiers and lower knights. After the completion of their training, the new recruits were sent south again to augment the forces of a mid level lord in House Dzemael. Fate however had something else planned, and most would never make it to Lord Calieur's however.

While on the road south, Flynt's Company was attacked by a roving pack of wyverns. Nearly all of Flynt's Company was killed in the initial attack, and Flynt saw firsthand the horrors of battle as the scaled beasts tore apart and devoured the men around him. Flynt fled with two other men and their Commanding Officer, Dalinat Calieur, the eldest son of Lord Calieur and fledgling Dragoon, whose first assignment had been to collect this new batch of recruits. The young Lieutenant was injured in the initial skirmish, leaving Flynt and two others to carry the man to safety. A few hours after they fled it became apparent that they were being hunted, and decisions needed to be made on how they would continue. The forest which they had fled into granted them some safety, as it forced their scaled foes to track them on foot and the density of the trees slowed the Goobbue sized creatures. They were pursued into the night, and the other two men, fearing that the rogue wyvern or wyverns that were gaining ground, left Flynt and Dalinat to die.

==== ''Redemption and Rebirth (16-28) '' ====

The details of what happened within those woods and on the roads back to Camp Riversmeet are unknown. What is known is that a week after the entire Company had been declared dead, Flynt and Dalinat arrived at Camp Riversmeet. Dalinat was near dead, the wound he had sustained had only gotten worse due to a lack of treatment and constant movement. Flynt, while in better shape, looked far worse. He returned nearly delirious, covered in blood and gore, with his chest and hands covered in first and second degree burns. In near delirium the two were rushed to the camps healers and nursed back to health over the course of a week. During this time Flynt battled endless Dravanian foes in his fevered dreams, standing on the very edge of death and defeat. In his brief moments of lucidity, he remembered being visited by a kindly old priest who assured him that as long as he were to believe, Halone would continue to protect and guide him. His final fever dream ended with the bronze shield and three spears of Halone coming to him at his most dire moment and vanquishing the enemies that tormented him. When Flynt awoke he immediately pledged unending faith in The Fury, and prayed on the side of his bed until the nurses and healers forced him to stop and rest.

A few days after Flynt was taken off of bed rest, Dalinat awoke. A few days after Dalinat and his father, Lord Calieur summoned Flynt to appear before them. It was there that Lord Calieur gave his thanks to the young Miqo’te who saved not only his son, but his legacy. Hardly a heartbeat passed in between the time that Lord Calieur asked what he could do in return and Flynt’s response. He wished to become an Ishgardian Knight, a Dragoon in the service of Lord Calieur. He swore fealty to Lord Calieur and in turn, Halone. Though initially hesitant, Lord Calieur honored Flynt’s request and ensured that, if he completed his training he would be a Knight Dragoon under his service. For more than two years Flynt underwent the vigorous training that would turn men to Knights of the Sky. Though trained, Flynt's skills with the lance were far inferior to that of his peers. These men had received formal training with the spear since they could stand, whereas much of what Flynt learned was either self taught or from the little instruction he got in the Lancer's Guild and in the Holy City before his run in with the wyverns. Daily sparring left Flynt nearly paralyzed by pain and injury. He continued to train however, and with every duel, every exercise, he grew more skilled. Lord Calieur was not happy with Flynt only being competent in the martial sense however. At night, Flynt's tutor would arrive to instruct him on the history of Ishgard, the teachings of the Arch-Bishop and Halone, and of the famous works of Eorzea.

Upon completion of his training, Flynt was assigned to Dalinat's Company. Now a Captain, and a battle hardened Knight of Ishgard, Dalinat had become a respected Company Commander who fought on the frontlines against the Dravanian horde. Then Dalamud fell. Bahamut's rage swept over Eorzea, and the very landscape of Coerthas bent to his will. Bitter cold swept in, and snow fell with seemingly no end. The Dravanian beasts became emboldened, attacking outlying towns and cities in numbers not seen in hundreds of years. In these dark times the Dragon Knights of Ishgard fought tooth and nail to secure their borders and protect their people, but as time passed, the grim reality of their situation began to sink in. With every victory, tens of people were exposed to dragonkin capable of tainting the hearts of men. These men, women and children were branded heretics, and their execution mandated by the Arch-Bishop himself. Those suspected of hiding these heretics were tortured and killed to ensure no tainted citizens roamed the streets. On behalf of Lord Calieur and Halone, Flynt committed unspeakable acts, acts that he cannot to this day ask redemption for.

The exact details of Flynt's depature from Coerthas and how he came into possession of the Red Wyvern, a Calieur family heirloom, are unknown. What is known is that Flynt resurfaced in Limsa Lominsa, working in a tavern as a doorman until the company went out of business and many of its members disappeared. He then disappeared for close to a year along with his brother Nipan, their destination and goals unknown. Now the two have returned, with only a plan and a pocket full of gil to achieve their goals.

==== ''Tonberries in Stride (29-31) '' ====

The return of the Brother’s Knoltros to Limsa Lominsa went largely unnoticed, and why wouldn’t it? The two were far from well known, and even further from successful. That however, was about to change. During their travels the two had stumbled upon an idea so simple and perfect, it had to succeed. They would go in business together, with Flynt hunting large and dangerous game and Nipan trading the goods and exotic items that Flynt stumbled upon in his work. But just as moderate success came to the two, Nipan saw his brother falling into old habits. Nipan had hoped their time away would have helped his brother heal, but it seemed to only delay the return of his subconscious desire to die. Flynt had returned to taking the most dangerous marks he could find and drinking far too much when he could not find work he deemed worth taking.

And then he met her. Later, Flynt would reflect on the significance of that moment and how it affected him. At the moment however, it really was that simple and that profound, then he met /her/. She'd been working as a bodyguard for an incredibly frustrating young woman Flynt had met several days prior, mid binge. He'd wouldn't admit it, even to himself, but some part of him knew the moment he met her that he was in love. His limited social skill coupled with his 'prickly' demeanor however did him few favors, and after nearly coming to blows with another group of men after their first meeting she'd look at him like everyone else: A monster.

He began to ask about her more, discovering she was both a skilled hunter and tracker, and took a lot of side work out of Limsa as well. As such, he began taking more and more jobs out of the City-State and pretending he was not doing so in the small chance she would also be there. Finally, after a few failed attempts at summoning up some courage, he met with her at the Bismark and struck up a conversation. While she initially seemed rather guarded, they seemed to hit it off rather quickly.

Ritsu Arlow was the youngest daughter of Genma Arlow, a wealthy and renowned bowyer from Gridania. She had fled from her life in the Shroud to avoid an arranged marriage and escape her father's overbearing nature. For a few brief hours Flynt's fears and anger were washed away. Before departing he mentioned his work, asking if she would be interested in working together to split the earnings on a few marks. It was truly at this moment, that the Wandering Tonberry Trading Company was born.

For the next few moons, Flynt found himself spending more and more time with Ritsu. While he'd thought himself a skilled tracker, he found himself nowhere near as skilled as her and quickly learned everything he could from her on the art. He shared with her his knowledge of various beasts and means in which to fell them. She also helped in getting him out more, meeting new people. She introduced him to Roger, a friend of hers and a man who would quickly become both Flynt's close friend and personal rival.

The three would become the base of the company, though many other staples of the Lodge were soon to follow. Tah'al Rael and her daughter Celestus soon joined their ranks, skilled warriors with a mysterious past. Raik Samil, a cheerful mercenary and friend of Roger's who aided The Wanderers on more than a few occasions before joining up. Things were good for a time, and slowly Flynt found himself feeling less alone and less angry...

It was then Flynt met Canis Latrans.

== Personality ==

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Is very critical of himself, and his failings when it comes to being a leader.

• When it comes to those closest to him, he can many times default to the simplest, and often most ruthless, course of action in order to protect his people.

• Holds others often times to his own standards, and gets angry when others don't agree with, or meet them.

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing his wife, or having her grow to fear or hate him.

• Failing as a leader, and getting those he's charged with hurt or killed.

• Slowly changing, as Dalinat did.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• He is an incredibly skilled spearman, and trains several hours a day to master his art. He has taken on several students now, and spends several hours a week at the Lancer's Guild in Gridania aiding as a guest instructor where he is needed.

• Excellent composure & tactically savvy. Years of fighting Dravanian hordes has made him difficult to shock in a combat scenario, thus providing him impressive decision making skills in small, fluid engagements.

• Over the years, Flynt has slowly accepted his role as the leader of his people. Previously he hid behind the idea of 'just being in charge', and only recent events have forced him to come into his own and sees himself as a true leader. While he doesn't see it, he's apparently proven to be rather good at it.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Dark Blue

*'''Food: '''Wineport’s Dragonbreath Chili.

*'''Drinks: '''Yarb’s Fall Pumpkin Ale.

*'''Scent:''' Decomposing/Burning leaves.

*'''Place:''' Knoltros Abby, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' All Saint’s Wake.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• Bestia infirmitatem – A large tome (that is mostly blank), which Flynt hopes to fill with information on the various monsters that wander Hydaelyn.

• Coin Pouch – Typically with little to 500-2000 gil in coins or notes inside.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• The Red Wyvern – Once a modified Guisarme and heirloom of the Calieur family as well as the focal point behind Flynt's departure from Ishgard. The weapon was damaged heavily in Flynt's battle with Dalinat Calieur, and Flynt had it reforged soon after converting it into materia to affix to the next. This less perfect version was also badly damaged after the last battle with Canis Latrans, and for some time the weapon's legacy seemed all but gone. Nearly a cycle later Flynt found himself prepared to remake the Calieur family heirloom, and the newest iteration of the Red Wyvern was born, melded with the materia of its forerunners.

• Mythril Boot Knife – A simple boot knife... Not nearly as cool as his spear.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• None in the traditional sense. That said, years studying the ancient arts of the spear and the dragoon have instilled in him the ability to perform some of the extraordinary feats associated with the order of the Dragoon. His weapon, The Red Wyvern, also seems to have some magical properties though the extent of which is known only by his wife, Roger and few others.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Ritsu Arlow]] : Flynt's right hand within The Wandering Tonberry Trading Co., one of the first friends he made upon his return, and the love of his life. Upon their first meeting, Flynt felt an immediate connection with the Elezen archer. Her stoic and somewhat quiet demeanor matched his own, and two seemingly cold people found companionship in one another. As they spent more time together, first hunting and then fighting side by side, Flynt slowly found himself falling in love with what he considered to be the woman of his dreams. They have had their fair share of trials, both nearly losing themselves along the way and those closest to them. Now however, even with things still in chaos, Flynt finds himself slowly piecing himself back together and becoming the man he thinks she deserves.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Flynt's closest friend, and the third key piece to the Wandering Tonberry's continued success. On the surface the two appear to be almost complete opposites, Roger much more at ease in social settings and not as outwardly gloomy or brooding as Flynt. Underneath these superficial differences, the two are much more alike than different. Roger has helped provide Flynt with countless insights, as well as valuable advice on how the three should proceed when Flynt's own vision was clouded by anger or fear.

: ♥ [[Asura Anata]] : While Flynt would never admit it, other than Roger Asura or "Ta" is one of Flynt's closest and most trusted friends, and the two seems to share a bond of nonverbal means of communication. This however does not stop the two from butting heads from time to time, or almost coming to blows. Ta (as Flynt calls her) has served a lot of roles for Flynt, from informant, to advisor, to teacher and friend. She has been there at Flynt's weakest or most broken, and has drug him out of his own funk whether he liked it or not.

: ♥ [[Celestus Shinozaki]] : Flynt and Celestus have always had an interesting dynamic, similar to that of Flynt and Asura's, but very different at the same time. Early on, Flynt found Celestus to be a very calm, level headed and agreeable sort. He spoke with her on more than one occasion to get her opinion and insight in regards to certain problems or situations he faced. Flynt had promised her, and Ta that he would protect them, and as long as they were in his Lodge, they were his people. An ill fated day in Coerthas changed all of that, and for months Flynt believed her dead and blamed himself for that completely. Since her return however, that small weight has been lifted, though he still secretly blames himself for making the call that nearly got her killed.

: ♥ [[Raik Samil]] : Raik, like Roger is like a brother to him. Since they've met Raik has been not only fiercely loyal, but incredibly effective. Even in the face of incredible danger and almost certain death, Raik has kept his laid back and happy demeanor. Raik serves as the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms, and takes his work protecting the Lodge very seriously. Flynt loves sparring with Raik, even if his body doesn't and in many ways is jealous of the man's outlook and how he handles his own past and demons.

: ♥ [[Reiner Dorn]] : Flynt's relationship with Reiner has always been rather complex, but through it all he has no doubt that every piece of it was for the better. Reiner first came to The Wandering Tonberry looking for work and a place to stay. He also met Flynt's soon to be sister-in-law, Karin, who offered to aid in teaching him more about magic and how to utilize his own. As Reiner and Flynt interacted more, the two fell into a natural rhythm, with Reiner serving as the Sergeant to his Lieutenant. Flynt felt comfortable having someone with a traditional military background who could relate and understand both his mannerisms and reasoning behind his actions. Events outside both of their control forced them onto different paths, but both men still consider each other brothers and make themselves available however and whenever they can.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Brothers Knoltros (0-14)'' ====

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wet nurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

==== ''To Ishghard (14-16) '' ====

Everything that could have once been considered Flynt's was now gone. What surprised him about this however, was the strange sense of excitement it made him feel. He was still lonely, and a large part of him worried that he might not survive the journey that he was preparing to take. Over the years Flynt had discovered a passion for sparring and combat, specifically with the spear. Flynt spent countless mornings and afternoons training with the bronze skinned spear fisherman who lined the various piers of Limsa's lower quarters. In addition to their fishing techniques, these men had developed a rudimentary combat system based around their tools of the trade. Flynt trained fanatically with these men, doing whatever odd job or menial task they asked of him in exchange for more time to learn the way of the spear.

During that time Flynt had heard stories of legendary warriors in the north who had taken the art of the spear to a new level, and who fought in the skies themselves against evil beasts in order to protect their land. Flynt had always dreamed of leaving Limsa and travelling north to train with these majestic warriors. With nothing left but a simple spear and travelling supplies (purchased by the kindly Dallet), then seemed as good a time as any to make that dream a reality. It took months for Flynt to reach the outskirts of Coerthas, and there was more than one occasion where he was certain that he would not make it. He nearly found himself posting up in Gridania upon seeing the Wood Wailers and discovering the Lancer's Guild located within the city. He spent close to two months in Gridania, studying almost non-stop with the instructors of the Lancer's Guild. He took whatever jobs they would give him, from searching for lost pets to exterminating minor vermin that migrated too close to the city's limits.

All of this preparation was in pursuit of one goal, and though he had gotten a bit sidetracked he had not forgotten. Feeling more confident than ever Flynt finally arrived in Falcon’s Nest. It was a small town, south of Camp Riversmeet and less than a day’s ride from Ishgard itself. It was here that he sought entrance into the prestigious ranks of the Ishgardian Dragoons, and where he also discovered the incredible distrust and xenophobia commonly found in Ishgardian citizens. Flynt spent the first three weeks sleeping in barns and living off of the little gil he had, coupled with what he could hunt for himself. The largely Elezen and Hyur population seemed to be very unhappy with a young Miqo’te in their midst, with the kindest people ignoring him and the worst openly berating him in the streets.

==== ''Out of the Darkness (16-16) '' ====

Then the ebb and flow of the Dravanian attacks began to increase, and all those who could fight in Falcon’s Nest were “summoned” to the Holy City. Flynt had tried multiple times to get into the mighty city of Ishgard, only to be turned back every time by the Gate of Judgement’s sentries. Now however, bodies were needed and homeless Miqo’te’s were good enough to die for The Arch-Bishop. These new recruits, most of whom had never held a spear, spent the next four weeks in a simple training regimen that made them just competent enough to die without looking foolish. Flynt however was a different case. His previous training and experience, coupled with his natural affinity for the spear enabled him to spend less of his time reviewing the basics and more of it training with career foot soldiers and lower knights. After the completion of their training, the new recruits were sent south again to augment the forces of a mid level lord in House Dzemael. Fate however had something else planned, and most would never make it to Lord Calieur's however.

While on the road south, Flynt's Company was attacked by a roving pack of wyverns. Nearly all of Flynt's Company was killed in the initial attack, and Flynt saw firsthand the horrors of battle as the scaled beasts tore apart and devoured the men around him. Flynt fled with two other men and their Commanding Officer, Dalinat Calieur, the eldest son of Lord Calieur and fledgling Dragoon, whose first assignment had been to collect this new batch of recruits. The young Lieutenant was injured in the initial skirmish, leaving Flynt and two others to carry the man to safety. A few hours after they fled it became apparent that they were being hunted, and decisions needed to be made on how they would continue. The forest which they had fled into granted them some safety, as it forced their scaled foes to track them on foot and the density of the trees slowed the Goobbue sized creatures. They were pursued into the night, and the other two men, fearing that the rogue wyvern or wyverns that were gaining ground, left Flynt and Dalinat to die.

==== ''Redemption and Rebirth (16-28) '' ====

The details of what happened within those woods and on the roads back to Camp Riversmeet are unknown. What is known is that a week after the entire Company had been declared dead, Flynt and Dalinat arrived at Camp Riversmeet. Dalinat was near dead, the wound he had sustained had only gotten worse due to a lack of treatment and constant movement. Flynt, while in better shape, looked far worse. He returned nearly delirious, covered in blood and gore, with his chest and hands covered in first and second degree burns. In near delirium the two were rushed to the camps healers and nursed back to health over the course of a week. During this time Flynt battled endless Dravanian foes in his fevered dreams, standing on the very edge of death and defeat. In his brief moments of lucidity, he remembered being visited by a kindly old priest who assured him that as long as he were to believe, Halone would continue to protect and guide him. His final fever dream ended with the bronze shield and three spears of Halone coming to him at his most dire moment and vanquishing the enemies that tormented him. When Flynt awoke he immediately pledged unending faith in The Fury, and prayed on the side of his bed until the nurses and healers forced him to stop and rest.

A few days after Flynt was taken off of bed rest, Dalinat awoke. A few days after Dalinat and his father, Lord Calieur summoned Flynt to appear before them. It was there that Lord Calieur gave his thanks to the young Miqo’te who saved not only his son, but his legacy. Hardly a heartbeat passed in between the time that Lord Calieur asked what he could do in return and Flynt’s response. He wished to become an Ishgardian Knight, a Dragoon in the service of Lord Calieur. He swore fealty to Lord Calieur and in turn, Halone. Though initially hesitant, Lord Calieur honored Flynt’s request and ensured that, if he completed his training he would be a Knight Dragoon under his service. For more than two years Flynt underwent the vigorous training that would turn men to Knights of the Sky. Though trained, Flynt's skills with the lance were far inferior to that of his peers. These men had received formal training with the spear since they could stand, whereas much of what Flynt learned was either self taught or from the little instruction he got in the Lancer's Guild and in the Holy City before his run in with the wyverns. Daily sparring left Flynt nearly paralyzed by pain and injury. He continued to train however, and with every duel, every exercise, he grew more skilled. Lord Calieur was not happy with Flynt only being competent in the martial sense however. At night, Flynt's tutor would arrive to instruct him on the history of Ishgard, the teachings of the Arch-Bishop and Halone, and of the famous works of Eorzea.

Upon completion of his training, Flynt was assigned to Dalinat's Company. Now a Captain, and a battle hardened Knight of Ishgard, Dalinat had become a respected Company Commander who fought on the frontlines against the Dravanian horde. Then Dalamud fell. Bahamut's rage swept over Eorzea, and the very landscape of Coerthas bent to his will. Bitter cold swept in, and snow fell with seemingly no end. The Dravanian beasts became emboldened, attacking outlying towns and cities in numbers not seen in hundreds of years. In these dark times the Dragon Knights of Ishgard fought tooth and nail to secure their borders and protect their people, but as time passed, the grim reality of their situation began to sink in. With every victory, tens of people were exposed to dragonkin capable of tainting the hearts of men. These men, women and children were branded heretics, and their execution mandated by the Arch-Bishop himself. Those suspected of hiding these heretics were tortured and killed to ensure no tainted citizens roamed the streets. On behalf of Lord Calieur and Halone, Flynt committed unspeakable acts, acts that he cannot to this day ask redemption for.

The exact details of Flynt's depature from Coerthas and how he came into possession of the Red Wyvern, a Calieur family heirloom, are unknown. What is known is that Flynt resurfaced in Limsa Lominsa, working in a tavern as a doorman until the company went out of business and many of its members disappeared. He then disappeared for close to a year along with his brother Nipan, their destination and goals unknown. Now the two have returned, with only a plan and a pocket full of gil to achieve their goals.

==== ''Tonberries in Stride (29-31) '' ====

The return of the Brother’s Knoltros to Limsa Lominsa went largely unnoticed, and why wouldn’t it? The two were far from well known, and even further from successful. That however, was about to change. During their travels the two had stumbled upon an idea so simple and perfect, it had to succeed. They would go in business together, with Flynt hunting large and dangerous game and Nipan trading the goods and exotic items that Flynt stumbled upon in his work. But just as moderate success came to the two, Nipan saw his brother falling into old habits. Nipan had hoped their time away would have helped his brother heal, but it seemed to only delay the return of his subconscious desire to die. Flynt had returned to taking the most dangerous marks he could find and drinking far too much when he could not find work he deemed worth taking.

And then he met her. Later, Flynt would reflect on the significance of that moment and how it affected him. At the moment however, it really was that simple and that profound, then he met /her/. She'd been working as a bodyguard for an incredibly frustrating young woman Flynt had met several days prior, mid binge. He'd wouldn't admit it, even to himself, but some part of him knew the moment he met her that he was in love. His limited social skill coupled with his 'prickly' demeanor however did him few favors, and after nearly coming to blows with another group of men after their first meeting she'd look at him like everyone else: A monster.

He began to ask about her more, discovering she was both a skilled hunter and tracker, and took a lot of side work out of Limsa as well. As such, he began taking more and more jobs out of the City-State and pretending he was not doing so in the small chance she would also be there. Finally, after a few failed attempts at summoning up some courage, he met with her at the Bismark and struck up a conversation. While she initially seemed rather guarded, they seemed to hit it off rather quickly.

Ritsu Arlow was the youngest daughter of Genma Arlow, a wealthy and renowned bowyer from Gridania. She had fled from her life in the Shroud to avoid an arranged marriage and escape her father's overbearing nature. For a few brief hours Flynt's fears and anger were washed away. Before departing he mentioned his work, asking if she would be interested in working together to split the earnings on a few marks. It was truly at this moment, that the Wandering Tonberry Trading Company was born.

For the next few moons, Flynt found himself spending more and more time with Ritsu. While he'd thought himself a skilled tracker, he found himself nowhere near as skilled as her and quickly learned everything he could from her on the art. He shared with her his knowledge of various beasts and means in which to fell them. She also helped in getting him out more, meeting new people. She introduced him to Roger, a friend of hers and a man who would quickly become both Flynt's close friend and personal rival.

The three would become the base of the company, though many other staples of the Lodge were soon to follow. Tah'al Rael and her daughter Celestus soon joined their ranks, skilled warriors with a mysterious past. Raik Samil, a cheerful mercenary and friend of Roger's who aided The Wanderers on more than a few occasions before joining up. Things were good for a time, and slowly Flynt found himself feeling less alone and less angry...

It was then Flynt met Canis Latrans.

== Personality ==

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Is very critical of himself, and his failings when it comes to being a leader.

• When it comes to those closest to him, he can many times default to the simplest, and often most ruthless, course of action in order to protect his people.

• Holds others often times to his own standards, and gets angry when others don't agree with, or meet them.

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing his wife, or having her grow to fear or hate him.

• Failing as a leader, and getting those he's charged with hurt or killed.

• Slowly changing, as Dalinat did.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• He is an incredibly skilled spearman, and trains several hours a day to master his art. He has taken on several students now, and spends several hours a week at the Lancer's Guild in Gridania aiding as a guest instructor where he is needed.

• Excellent composure & tactically savvy. Years of fighting Dravanian hordes has made him difficult to shock in a combat scenario, thus providing him impressive decision making skills in small, fluid engagements.

• Over the years, Flynt has slowly accepted his role as the leader of his people. Previously he hid behind the idea of 'just being in charge', and only recent events have forced him to come into his own and sees himself as a true leader. While he doesn't see it, he's apparently proven to be rather good at it.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Dark Blue

*'''Food: '''Wineport’s Dragonbreath Chili.

*'''Drinks: '''Yarb’s Fall Pumpkin Ale.

*'''Scent:''' Decomposing/Burning leaves.

*'''Place:''' Knoltros Abby, Limsa Lominsa.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• Bestia infirmitatem – A large tome (that is mostly blank), which Flynt hopes to fill with information on the various monsters that wander Hydaelyn.

• Coin Pouch – Typically with little to 500-2000 gil in coins or notes inside.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• The Red Wyvern – Once a modified Guisarme and heirloom of the Calieur family as well as the focal point behind Flynt's departure from Ishgard. The weapon was damaged heavily in Flynt's battle with Dalinat Calieur, and Flynt had it reforged soon after converting it into materia to affix to the next. This less perfect version was also badly damaged after the last battle with Canis Latrans, and for some time the weapon's legacy seemed all but gone. Nearly a cycle later Flynt found himself prepared to remake the Calieur family heirloom, and the newest iteration of the Red Wyvern was born, melded with the materia of its forerunners.

• Mythril Boot Knife – A simple boot knife... Not nearly as cool as his spear.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• None in the traditional sense. That said, years studying the ancient arts of the spear and the dragoon have instilled in him the ability to perform some of the extraordinary feats associated with the order of the Dragoon. His weapon, The Red Wyvern, also seems to have some magical properties though the extent of which is known only by his wife, Roger and few others.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Ritsu Arlow]] : Flynt's right hand within The Wandering Tonberry Trading Co., one of the first friends he made upon his return, and the love of his life. Upon their first meeting, Flynt felt an immediate connection with the Elezen archer. Her stoic and somewhat quiet demeanor matched his own, and two seemingly cold people found companionship in one another. As they spent more time together, first hunting and then fighting side by side, Flynt slowly found himself falling in love with what he considered to be the woman of his dreams. They have had their fair share of trials, both nearly losing themselves along the way and those closest to them. Now however, even with things still in chaos, Flynt finds himself slowly piecing himself back together and becoming the man he thinks she deserves.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Flynt's closest friend, and the third key piece to the Wandering Tonberry's continued success. On the surface the two appear to be almost complete opposites, Roger much more at ease in social settings and not as outwardly gloomy or brooding as Flynt. Underneath these superficial differences, the two are much more alike than different. Roger has helped provide Flynt with countless insights, as well as valuable advice on how the three should proceed when Flynt's own vision was clouded by anger or fear.

: ♥ [[Asura Anata]] : While Flynt would never admit it, other than Roger Asura or "Ta" is one of Flynt's closest and most trusted friends, and the two seems to share a bond of nonverbal means of communication. This however does not stop the two from butting heads from time to time, or almost coming to blows. Ta (as Flynt calls her) has served a lot of roles for Flynt, from informant, to advisor, to teacher and friend. She has been there at Flynt's weakest or most broken, and has drug him out of his own funk whether he liked it or not.

: ♥ [[Celestus Shinozaki]] : Flynt and Celestus have always had an interesting dynamic, similar to that of Flynt and Asura's, but very different at the same time. Early on, Flynt found Celestus to be a very calm, level headed and agreeable sort. He spoke with her on more than one occasion to get her opinion and insight in regards to certain problems or situations he faced. Flynt had promised her, and Ta that he would protect them, and as long as they were in his Lodge, they were his people. An ill fated day in Coerthas changed all of that, and for months Flynt believed her dead and blamed himself for that completely. Since her return however, that small weight has been lifted, though he still secretly blames himself for making the call that nearly got her killed.

: ♥ [[Raik Samil]] : Raik, like Roger is like a brother to him. Since they've met Raik has been not only fiercely loyal, but incredibly effective. Even in the face of incredible danger and almost certain death, Raik has kept his laid back and happy demeanor. Raik serves as the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms, and takes his work protecting the Lodge very seriously. Flynt loves sparring with Raik, even if his body doesn't and in many ways is jealous of the man's outlook and how he handles his own past and demons.

: ♥ [[Reiner Dorn]] : Flynt's relationship with Reiner has always been rather complex, but through it all he has no doubt that every piece of it was for the better. Reiner first came to The Wandering Tonberry looking for work and a place to stay. He also met Flynt's soon to be sister-in-law, Karin, who offered to aid in teaching him more about magic and how to utilize his own. As Reiner and Flynt interacted more, the two fell into a natural rhythm, with Reiner serving as the Sergeant to his Lieutenant. Flynt felt comfortable having someone with a traditional military background who could relate and understand both his mannerisms and reasoning behind his actions. Events outside both of their control forced them onto different paths, but both men still consider each other brothers and make themselves available however and whenever they can.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Brothers Knoltros (0-14)'' ====

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wet nurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

==== ''To Ishghard (14-16) '' ====

Everything that could have once been considered Flynt's was now gone. What surprised him about this however, was the strange sense of excitement it made him feel. He was still lonely, and a large part of him worried that he might not survive the journey that he was preparing to take. Over the years Flynt had discovered a passion for sparring and combat, specifically with the spear. Flynt spent countless mornings and afternoons training with the bronze skinned spear fisherman who lined the various piers of Limsa's lower quarters. In addition to their fishing techniques, these men had developed a rudimentary combat system based around their tools of the trade. Flynt trained fanatically with these men, doing whatever odd job or menial task they asked of him in exchange for more time to learn the way of the spear.

During that time Flynt had heard stories of legendary warriors in the north who had taken the art of the spear to a new level, and who fought in the skies themselves against evil beasts in order to protect their land. Flynt had always dreamed of leaving Limsa and travelling north to train with these majestic warriors. With nothing left but a simple spear and travelling supplies (purchased by the kindly Dallet), then seemed as good a time as any to make that dream a reality. It took months for Flynt to reach the outskirts of Coerthas, and there was more than one occasion where he was certain that he would not make it. He nearly found himself posting up in Gridania upon seeing the Wood Wailers and discovering the Lancer's Guild located within the city. He spent close to two months in Gridania, studying almost non-stop with the instructors of the Lancer's Guild. He took whatever jobs they would give him, from searching for lost pets to exterminating minor vermin that migrated too close to the city's limits.

All of this preparation was in pursuit of one goal, and though he had gotten a bit sidetracked he had not forgotten. Feeling more confident than ever Flynt finally arrived in Falcon’s Nest. It was a small town, south of Camp Riversmeet and less than a day’s ride from Ishgard itself. It was here that he sought entrance into the prestigious ranks of the Ishgardian Dragoons, and where he also discovered the incredible distrust and xenophobia commonly found in Ishgardian citizens. Flynt spent the first three weeks sleeping in barns and living off of the little gil he had, coupled with what he could hunt for himself. The largely Elezen and Hyur population seemed to be very unhappy with a young Miqo’te in their midst, with the kindest people ignoring him and the worst openly berating him in the streets.

==== ''Out of the Darkness (16-16) '' ====

Then the ebb and flow of the Dravanian attacks began to increase, and all those who could fight in Falcon’s Nest were “summoned” to the Holy City. Flynt had tried multiple times to get into the mighty city of Ishgard, only to be turned back every time by the Gate of Judgement’s sentries. Now however, bodies were needed and homeless Miqo’te’s were good enough to die for The Arch-Bishop. These new recruits, most of whom had never held a spear, spent the next four weeks in a simple training regimen that made them just competent enough to die without looking foolish. Flynt however was a different case. His previous training and experience, coupled with his natural affinity for the spear enabled him to spend less of his time reviewing the basics and more of it training with career foot soldiers and lower knights. After the completion of their training, the new recruits were sent south again to augment the forces of a mid level lord in House Dzemael. Fate however had something else planned, and most would never make it to Lord Calieur's however.

While on the road south, Flynt's Company was attacked by a roving pack of wyverns. Nearly all of Flynt's Company was killed in the initial attack, and Flynt saw firsthand the horrors of battle as the scaled beasts tore apart and devoured the men around him. Flynt fled with two other men and their Commanding Officer, Dalinat Calieur, the eldest son of Lord Calieur and fledgling Dragoon, whose first assignment had been to collect this new batch of recruits. The young Lieutenant was injured in the initial skirmish, leaving Flynt and two others to carry the man to safety. A few hours after they fled it became apparent that they were being hunted, and decisions needed to be made on how they would continue. The forest which they had fled into granted them some safety, as it forced their scaled foes to track them on foot and the density of the trees slowed the Goobbue sized creatures. They were pursued into the night, and the other two men, fearing that the rogue wyvern or wyverns that were gaining ground, left Flynt and Dalinat to die.

==== ''Redemption and Rebirth (16-28) '' ====

The details of what happened within those woods and on the roads back to Camp Riversmeet are unknown. What is known is that a week after the entire Company had been declared dead, Flynt and Dalinat arrived at Camp Riversmeet. Dalinat was near dead, the wound he had sustained had only gotten worse due to a lack of treatment and constant movement. Flynt, while in better shape, looked far worse. He returned nearly delirious, covered in blood and gore, with his chest and hands covered in first and second degree burns. In near delirium the two were rushed to the camps healers and nursed back to health over the course of a week. During this time Flynt battled endless Dravanian foes in his fevered dreams, standing on the very edge of death and defeat. In his brief moments of lucidity, he remembered being visited by a kindly old priest who assured him that as long as he were to believe, Halone would continue to protect and guide him. His final fever dream ended with the bronze shield and three spears of Halone coming to him at his most dire moment and vanquishing the enemies that tormented him. When Flynt awoke he immediately pledged unending faith in The Fury, and prayed on the side of his bed until the nurses and healers forced him to stop and rest.

A few days after Flynt was taken off of bed rest, Dalinat awoke. A few days after Dalinat and his father, Lord Calieur summoned Flynt to appear before them. It was there that Lord Calieur gave his thanks to the young Miqo’te who saved not only his son, but his legacy. Hardly a heartbeat passed in between the time that Lord Calieur asked what he could do in return and Flynt’s response. He wished to become an Ishgardian Knight, a Dragoon in the service of Lord Calieur. He swore fealty to Lord Calieur and in turn, Halone. Though initially hesitant, Lord Calieur honored Flynt’s request and ensured that, if he completed his training he would be a Knight Dragoon under his service. For more than two years Flynt underwent the vigorous training that would turn men to Knights of the Sky. Though trained, Flynt's skills with the lance were far inferior to that of his peers. These men had received formal training with the spear since they could stand, whereas much of what Flynt learned was either self taught or from the little instruction he got in the Lancer's Guild and in the Holy City before his run in with the wyverns. Daily sparring left Flynt nearly paralyzed by pain and injury. He continued to train however, and with every duel, every exercise, he grew more skilled. Lord Calieur was not happy with Flynt only being competent in the martial sense however. At night, Flynt's tutor would arrive to instruct him on the history of Ishgard, the teachings of the Arch-Bishop and Halone, and of the famous works of Eorzea.

Upon completion of his training, Flynt was assigned to Dalinat's Company. Now a Captain, and a battle hardened Knight of Ishgard, Dalinat had become a respected Company Commander who fought on the frontlines against the Dravanian horde. Then Dalamud fell. Bahamut's rage swept over Eorzea, and the very landscape of Coerthas bent to his will. Bitter cold swept in, and snow fell with seemingly no end. The Dravanian beasts became emboldened, attacking outlying towns and cities in numbers not seen in hundreds of years. In these dark times the Dragon Knights of Ishgard fought tooth and nail to secure their borders and protect their people, but as time passed, the grim reality of their situation began to sink in. With every victory, tens of people were exposed to dragonkin capable of tainting the hearts of men. These men, women and children were branded heretics, and their execution mandated by the Arch-Bishop himself. Those suspected of hiding these heretics were tortured and killed to ensure no tainted citizens roamed the streets. On behalf of Lord Calieur and Halone, Flynt committed unspeakable acts, acts that he cannot to this day ask redemption for.

The exact details of Flynt's depature from Coerthas and how he came into possession of the Red Wyvern, a Calieur family heirloom, are unknown. What is known is that Flynt resurfaced in Limsa Lominsa, working in a tavern as a doorman until the company went out of business and many of its members disappeared. He then disappeared for close to a year along with his brother Nipan, their destination and goals unknown. Now the two have returned, with only a plan and a pocket full of gil to achieve their goals.

==== ''Tonberries in Stride (29-31) '' ====

The return of the Brother’s Knoltros to Limsa Lominsa went largely unnoticed, and why wouldn’t it? The two were far from well known, and even further from successful. That however, was about to change. During their travels the two had stumbled upon an idea so simple and perfect, it had to succeed. They would go in business together, with Flynt hunting large and dangerous game and Nipan trading the goods and exotic items that Flynt stumbled upon in his work. But just as moderate success came to the two, Nipan saw his brother falling into old habits. Nipan had hoped their time away would have helped his brother heal, but it seemed to only delay the return of his subconscious desire to die. Flynt had returned to taking the most dangerous marks he could find and drinking far too much when he could not find work he deemed worth taking.

And then he met her. Later, Flynt would reflect on the significance of that moment and how it affected him. At the moment however, it really was that simple and that profound, then he met /her/. She'd been working as a bodyguard for an incredibly frustrating young woman Flynt had met several days prior, mid binge. He'd wouldn't admit it, even to himself, but some part of him knew the moment he met her that he was in love. His limited social skill coupled with his 'prickly' demeanor however did him few favors, and after nearly coming to blows with another group of men after their first meeting she'd look at him like everyone else: A monster.

He began to ask about her more, discovering she was both a skilled hunter and tracker, and took a lot of side work out of Limsa as well. As such, he began taking more and more jobs out of the City-State and pretending he was not doing so in the small chance she would also be there. Finally, after a few failed attempts at summoning up some courage, he met with her at the Bismark and struck up a conversation. While she initially seemed rather guarded, they seemed to hit it off rather quickly.

Ritsu Arlow was the youngest daughter of Genma Arlow, a wealthy and renowned bowyer from Gridania. She had fled from her life in the Shroud to avoid an arranged marriage and escape her father's overbearing nature. For a few brief hours Flynt's fears and anger were washed away. Before departing he mentioned his work, asking if she would be interested in working together to split the earnings on a few marks. It was truly at this moment, that the Wandering Tonberry Trading Company was born.

For the next few moons, Flynt found himself spending more and more time with Ritsu. While he'd thought himself a skilled tracker, he found himself nowhere near as skilled as her and quickly learned everything he could from her on the art. He shared with her his knowledge of various beasts and means in which to fell them. She also helped in getting him out more, meeting new people. She introduced him to Roger, a friend of hers and a man who would quickly become both Flynt's close friend and personal rival.

The three would become the base of the company, though many other staples of the Lodge were soon to follow. Tah'al Rael and her daughter Celestus soon joined their ranks, skilled warriors with a mysterious past. Raik Samil, a cheerful mercenary and friend of Roger's who aided The Wanderers on more than a few occasions before joining up. Things were good for a time, and slowly Flynt found himself feeling less alone and less angry...

It was then Flynt met Canis Latrans.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Ritsu Arlow]] : Flynt's right hand within The Wandering Tonberry Trading Co., one of the first friends he made upon his return, and the love of his life. Upon their first meeting, Flynt felt an immediate connection with the Elezen archer. Her stoic and somewhat quiet demeanor matched his own, and two seemingly cold people found companionship in one another. As they spent more time together, first hunting and then fighting side by side, Flynt slowly found himself falling in love with what he considered to be the woman of his dreams. They have had their fair share of trials, both nearly losing themselves along the way and those closest to them. Now however, even with things still in chaos, Flynt finds himself slowly piecing himself back together and becoming the man he thinks she deserves.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Flynt's closest friend, and the third key piece to the Wandering Tonberry's continued success. On the surface the two appear to be almost complete opposites, Roger much more at ease in social settings and not as outwardly gloomy or brooding as Flynt. Underneath these superficial differences, the two are much more alike than different. Roger has helped provide Flynt with countless insights, as well as valuable advice on how the three should proceed when Flynt's own vision was clouded by anger or fear.

: ♥ [[Asura Anata]] : While Flynt would never admit it, other than Roger Asura or "Ta" is one of Flynt's closest and most trusted friends, and the two seems to share a bond of nonverbal means of communication. This however does not stop the two from butting heads from time to time, or almost coming to blows. Ta (as Flynt calls her) has served a lot of roles for Flynt, from informant, to advisor, to teacher and friend. She has been there at Flynt's weakest or most broken, and has drug him out of his own funk whether he liked it or not.

: ♥ [[Celestus Shinozaki]] : Flynt and Celestus have always had an interesting dynamic, similar to that of Flynt and Asura's, but very different at the same time. Early on, Flynt found Celestus to be a very calm, level headed and agreeable sort. He spoke with her on more than one occasion to get her opinion and insight in regards to certain problems or situations he faced. Flynt had promised her, and Ta that he would protect them, and as long as they were in his Lodge, they were his people. An ill fated day in Coerthas changed all of that, and for months Flynt believed her dead and blamed himself for that completely. Since her return however, that small weight has been lifted, though he still secretly blames himself for making the call that nearly got her killed.

: ♥ [[Raik Samil]] : Raik, like Roger is like a brother to him. Since they've met Raik has been not only fiercely loyal, but incredibly effective. Even in the face of incredible danger and almost certain death, Raik has kept his laid back and happy demeanor. Raik serves as the Lodge's Sergeant at Arms, and takes his work protecting the Lodge very seriously. Flynt loves sparring with Raik, even if his body doesn't and in many ways is jealous of the man's outlook and how he handles his own past and demons.

: ♥ [[Reiner Dorn]] : Flynt's relationship with Reiner has always been rather complex, but through it all he has no doubt that every piece of it was for the better. Reiner first came to The Wandering Tonberry looking for work and a place to stay. He also met Flynt's soon to be sister-in-law, Karin, who offered to aid in teaching him more about magic and how to utilize his own. As Reiner and Flynt interacted more, the two fell into a natural rhythm, with Reiner serving as the Sergeant to his Lieutenant. Flynt felt comfortable having someone with a traditional military background who could relate and understand both his mannerisms and reasoning behind his actions. Events outside both of their control forced them onto different paths, but both men still consider each other brothers and make themselves available however and whenever they can.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

* Friends, couple friends.
* Open to a fair bit, just ask! The only thing out as she is married is romantic RP. Even then, folks can try if they wish - just will more than likely go poorly.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Other Notes ==
Tumbler: https://chidorifarcloud.tumblr.com/

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

: ♥ [[Kaori Farcloud]] :(Deceased) Kaori was a kind woman with the most gentle of smiles. She loved all her children dearly, often watching them play in the gardens as she looked on.

They would often be seen tinkering with this and that, most the time having a ill response to something they built. She regarded him as her sensei, learning much from him.

: ♥[[Roger Holmes]] : Roger was the first friendly face Chidori met during her arrival. The two became every close, shifting from a friendly relationship to one of a more romantic nature. She loves him with all her heart and would do anything for his happiness.

== Character History ==

==== ''The Arlows'' ====

The Arlows were not initially so wealthy; Genma had to earn every ilm of his property and his wealth with his skills at crafting fine bows, providing wealthy adventurers and the Archer's Guild with plenty of finely-crafted weapons. This raised his wealth and fame up to a level most common-folk could only dream of, beginning to make a name for himself throughout Gridania. Genma then married his wife, Ophelia Arlow, who was the daughter of a small noble house in Ishgard.

Opehila loved to read doman literature and could have been seen reading them from time to time, which would explain the origin of her daughters' first names. Her first child was Karin, would seemed to be a bit unusual compared to other children. She didn't express her emotions much, keeping mostly to herself most of the time. Five cycles later, Opehila bore another child, Ritsu Arlow. The family seemed complete, everything seemed to look content looking from the outside, but things are not always what they seem.

Genma began teaching Ritsu how to wield the bow at a very young age, keeping her way of life in accordant to his future plans. Genma believed that the way of the bow was the true way to fight, teaching Ritsu skills and techiques that the members of the Archer's Guild would not learn until many years later in their training. Ritsu had an innate talent for archery, picking up the aspects of using a bow rather quickly. The father was quite happy with his daughters, believing that they would be fine wives for his planned arranged marriages in the future.

When Ritsu was just a toddler, Ophelia began showing signs of magical affinity not known to anyone before. This newfound ability came with reprocussions as she did not have a sense of control with it, causing her to accidentally burn down her chocobo stables. All but two of the chocobos were lost during the fire, causing her to fear for the safety of her family. This was when she decided to leave, leaving her daughters without a mother.

Karin soon learned of the arranged marriage planned for her, disagreeing with her father as it was not her choice to wed. However, Genma stated that he was her father and he knew what was best for his daughters, not stepping down from his stance. This was when fled for the Arlow estate, leaving Ritsu there when she was only ten cycles of age. Genma went in search of his daughter, but she was nowhere to be found, leaving him with only Ritsu.

He began trying to control and shelter his only daughter now, hoping that she would fulfill his wishes that her sister refused to accept. However, the man did not know that attempting to tighten the grip of Ritsu would cause her to follow suit with her sister, fleeing the Arlow Estate several cycles later.

==== '' Sirius Business'' ====

After leaving her families’ estate, Ritsu needed to find employment in order to be able to stand on her own two feet. Having not been out much in the real world, she was at a loss at where to acquire one. This is when she met a lalafell named Sirius Cicero, a clever dunesfolk who had the desire to restore his Grandfathers company which was called the "Special Trading and Retainer Services" (also known as "S.T.A.R.S"). He hired Ritsu as a guide, assisting him in his travels as well as trying to keep him on track to achieve his goal. Sirius was not the easiest to work for as he was prone to become sidetracked quite often with things that peaked his interest. However, Ritsu did what she could to keep him moving forward, prying the man from a book every so often. Ritsu struggled to help him rebuild his company, but sadly that never came to fruition.

Although she was not able to assist the lalafell in his goal, she did learn quite a bit along the journey, expanded her knowledge on various regions that she guided Sirius through, honed her skills as an archer, as well as taking part of several unforgettable experiences. She pressed onward to find another line of work as she did not wish to be forced to go back home if she wasn't able to make it on her own.

==== '' The Coyote Arrives'' ====

She met a hyur by the name of Canis Latrans near the time where she and Sirius realized that their goal was going to stay a dream. This hyur was studying to become a conjurer, requesting the aid of Ritsu to escort him from Gridania in the Shroud all the way to Camp Horizon in Western Thanalan. Considering that she already gained experience in being a guide before as well as sounding like it would be completed easily enough, she accepted his request.

Charming, handsome, and cunning are all words that could be used to describe the man. These weren't the only words that could describe him, she soon realized. It was only a matter of time that she learned of this man's true intent and goals.

(WIP)

==== ''The Coyote's Sibling'' ====

She was tasked in keeping an eye on Canis’ younger sister, Llilith Aureus. She was only his half-sister, but she loved and cared for her older brother more than anyone could. She had a temper, however, which caused her to get into quite a bit of trouble. This caused Canis to employ Ritsu as her personal bodyguard to make sure that she behaved properly… To the best of her ability, that is.

This job proved to be quite difficult for Ritsu as the miqo’te seemed to have a knack in causing issues in public areas, often having to apologize in her steed as well as being forced to get involved in confrontations in order to protect Llilith’s well being.

: <center>♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing</center>

: ♥ [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Ritsu first spotted the man in the Wench as he gazed a moment too long at her ward, Ilithyia Aureus. Ilithyia promptly walked up to him, giving him quite the grief over his eyeing of her. The next time Ritsu and Flynt crossed paths was in Gridania; this was when Ilithyia finally introduced the two. Ritsu was grateful to finally meet someone that didn't fall for Ilithya antics, noticing that he was different from the rest. After this introduction, They had ran into each other several times, either by coincidence or planned, until he finally came up to her in the Bismark. The two began to realize that they had quite a bit in common; both sharing a common love for hunting among other things. Their relationship quickly blossomed, beginning to rely on one another for the obstacles that began coming their way as well as putting the well-being of each other above anything else. It was then that each had a desire to be with one another, that one could not live without the other. They solidified this bond by marrying one another, vowing that they would always be by one another's side until the end of time.

: ♥ [[Roger Holmes]] : Ritsu's first encounter with the miqo'te was on the steps outside the Quicksand. The Roger foolishly tried to talk of peace to her hot headed ward, Ilithyia, which caused him to end up in the fountain. Roger came across Ritsu alone and the two discovered they had much in common. Roger quickly became very dear to her, she considers him one of her dearest and closest friends.

: ♥ [[Karin Arlow]] : Ritsu's older sister by five cycles who fled from their estate while Ritsu was only ten cycles old. This was her decision to escape an arranged marriage, leaving Ritsu without a sibling for a time. She was discovered once again by Ritsu and her companions, Flynt and Roger. Initially Ritsu was quite leery of her sister, not remembering much about Karin due to the age she was when Karin left. However, Ritsu eventually been to warm up to her older sister once more, beginning to bond with her and speak to her about matters which an elder sister could assist with. The sisters share an unusual bond, showing similar characteristics such as wandering off random in a conversation as well as having the ability to quietly judge others.

: ♥ [[Wade Holmes]] : Wade is Roger's and Mokuren's offspring. Wade was left with his father, lacking a mother figure, Ritsu often takes on that role. Wade is a good natured child, always offering the brightest of smiles to those in his presence. In the Knoltros household Wade and Kai can often be seen playing, the two are growing up almost as close as brothers.

: ♥ [[Kai Knoltros]] : Ritsu's and Flynt's first born child. Kai takes after his mothers more elezen features, however he shares his coloring from his father. He is smaller than the average elezen. Kai tends to be more reserved than the more outgoing Wade.

: ● [[Valon Fyren]] : Ritsu met Valon back when she was employeed by Canis. At first she viewed Valon as someone to keep an eye on, but the relationship shifted to when he because someone she trusted. After discovering Canis was not the man she thought he was, Valon became an ally against him.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A dunefolk lalafell that became Ritsu's first employer and dear friend. At the time she met Sirius, he was in the process of resurrecting his grandfathers trading company. Sadly, it never came to pass as Sirius was always much more interested in his books and seeking out new things. He is now a well written author, even used Ritsu as a muse for many of his books.

: ● [[Canis Latrans]] : Canis Lantrans was Ritsu's second employer. She soon learned of his more darker nature, conflicting with her own morals. A Garlean spy with his own agenda to "better" Eorzea. Ritsu left his employment shortly after learning of certain deeds. Even after severing her ties to him, he often tried to use Ritsu and her new found friends in one plot or another.

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

* Work related. Need a hunter for hire? Come see us at The Wandering Tonberry. I would really love to start interacting with other Free Companies.
* Friends, couple friends.
* Open to a fair bit, just ask! The only thing out as she is married is romantic RP. Even then, folks can try if they wish - just will more than likely go poorly.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Personality ==

• Loving, bubbly girl.

• Bit shy around strangers, tends to be quick to warm up.

• Talks in third person, a touch fragmented. Her village often spoke in tongues of old, Chi is more used to their language than common tongue. She can read it far better than speak it.

• Very polite, uses honorifics.

=== ''Flaws'' ===

• Naive

• Clumsy

=== ''Fears'' ===

• Losing people dear to her.

=== ''Talents'' ===

• Despite how she speaks, she is highly intelligent. Books are a passion for her.

• Artistic.

• Loves to dance.

• Loves to grow flowers and make items from them, such as hair pins.

=== ''Fun Favorites'' ===

*'''Color: '''Pink.

*'''Food: '''Salad.

*'''Drinks: ''' Mulled Tea.

*'''Scent:''' Ocean breeze.

*'''Place:''' Costa del Sol, Limsa Lominsa.

*'''Festival:''' Moonfire Faire.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== ''Personal'' ===

• On the person she usually has a sketch book. Sometimes flowers and/or flower pins.

=== ''Pets'' ===

• Pets/furry friends: Chi has a fair few pets and furry friends. Spiritual animals seem drawn to her, often falling her around. Rudy - fish, Rex - pug, Rocco - tanuki, Riley - sparrow, Rowan - fox, River - chocobo.

=== ''Weapons'' ===

• Chidori isn't one for weapons, however she does have an old staff that did belong to her mother.

=== ''Magic'' ===

• Chidori has magic ablities she has barely scrapped the surface of. In combat she tends to summon the use of wind, at times earth as well. Giving the choice, she would prefer not to fight as that isn't something she is skilled at.

== Character History ==

==== ''Orozo'' ====
Chidori Farcloud is from a small mountain village called Orozo. She is from a long line of priestesses that protect the village, her mother being the previous one. Chidori being the daughter blessed with the strongest magical aptitude, would someday follow in her foot steps.

The future never comes to pass, however, as a roaming band of Chaghan attacked her clan and their village...

Chidori and Minori looked on as Sayori wielded her axe, trying to keep the two sisters safe. Chi watches the horror as panic rised. "Kumori?! Where is Kumori?" She frantically tries to pull away from Minori, looking for their younger sister. Minori tries to keep her grip. "Chi no, Kumori is fine, Arashi and papa are still out there too, will keep Kumori safe."Chi manages to pull away only to bump into a very large Chaghan. She timidly looks up at the male. "O-oh.."
In that faithful moment, a wandering shinobi seemed to appear out of thin air, stiking the man down. The sisters only managed to catch a glimpse of bright blue eyes and a masked lalafell before he threw himself back into the fray.

Haru, their father, rounded up the remaining sisters ushering them away. Chi fought against their father. "W-what of Arashi?! Kumori? Need to find." Haru shakes his head. "Not now little one, I saw them on the battle field. Arashi has Kumori, he will keep her safe. For now..we must away." The four managed to escape their home village, making their way to Kugane. With whispers in the wind of revolting against the Garlean empire in the air, their father felt it best to send the sisters off while he went in search of Kumori and Arashi.

In the rush to see the sisters off, the three were separated. Sayori watched helplessly as her sisters were caught up in a wave of people getting on the boats. "I will find you! Do not worry." Minori clung to her sister as they were ushered to the boat. The two torn apart by force. A guff hyur barked. "That boat is full now, one must take another. Chi pleaded with the man. "N-no wait, that is Ch-..." but it was already too late. Chi was pushed on to the boat, leaving Minori on the dock to wait for the next.

Once on Eorzea land, Chi looked around at the sea of strangers. She sat on the ground, curling up, she softly started to cry. A small hand touches her arm, she jumps as she looks up. A lalafell smiles at her, holding out his hand. "Do you need a work? A home? I can help you." Chi looks uncertain for a moment, before taking the mans hand. "Y-yes. Can help find sisters?" The lalafell tilts his head at the strange way she spoke. "You lost your sisters?" Chi nods. The man hmmms. "I am quite the clever fellow, I will see what I can do. For now..how are you with mechanics." Chi shakes her head in a no motion. The lalafell pats her arm. "I will teach you. Chappa is the name by the way."

Chappa and Chi spent a good year together, before he introduced her to the Knoltros. This is where her life at the Wandering Tonberry began.

==== ''The Wandering Tonberry'' ====

Life at the Wandering Tonberry has been fairly pleasant for Chidori. She is a very hard working little raen, getting up in the wee hours of the morning to make sure the lodge is in shape for the day. A quick sweep of the poach, doing a bit of paperwork for the Knoltros and any errands they may have left her, she does it all. She even serves at the lodges tavern or cooks if her sister, Sayo doesn't show up. She even comes on hunts if another healer is needed, sometimes even despite Roger's protests.

Chi also spends her time tending to her flowers and the small shop she has inside the lodge. She adores all kinds of flowers and loves to arrange them in small pins to wear. She travels out to Morabay docks once a moon to sell her wares at the Seabreeze Bazaar with her sisters. Sayo tends to give her little sister a hard time since Chi sells her pins for low cost. Chi does it for the smiles more than the gil, she loves to brighten peoples day.

Chi recently started to work part time at Stellazzio Pizzeria. A favorite restaurant among those at the Wandering Tonberry lodge. Chi jumped at the chance to work there, making a little gil on the side.

== Other Notes ==
Tumbler: https://chidorifarcloud.tumblr.com/

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

: ♥ [[Minori Farcloud]] : Chidori's little sister. Even though Minori is the younger of the two, Minori knows much more about the world than Chidori does.

: ♥ [[Kumori Farcloud]] : Kumori is the second youngest of the sisters, often mistaken for Chi's older sister due to her more serious nature.

: ♥ [[Sayori Farcloud]] : Chidori's elder sister. The most wild of the five Farcloud siblings.

: ♥ [[Arashi Farcloud]] : Arashi is the eldest of the Farcloud siblings. Chi loves her big brother Arashi very much and worries for him often as he still resides on Othard.

: ● [[Keyu Ishikiu]] : The lalafell that helped the Farcloud sisters leave Orthard. Recently reunited as the girls ran into a bandit on the road, Keyu revealed himself, chasing off the bandits.

: ♥ [[Chappa Kishi]] : Chappa found Chi among the refugees,taking the bright eyed raen as an assistant. He became very dear to her. They would often be seen tinkering with this and that, most the time having a ill response to something they built. She regarded him as her sensei, learning much from him.

: ♥[[Roger Holmes]] : Roger was the first friendly face Chidori met during her arrival. The two became every close, shifting from a friendly relationship to one of a more romantic nature. She loves him with all her heart and would do anything for his happiness.

: ● [[Flynt Knoltros]] : Chidori's boss at The Wandering Tonberry. Their first meeting was a bit rocky, however now they have more of a mutual respect for one another.

: ● [[Ritsu Arlow]] : (Knoltros) Chidori's boss at The Wandering Tonberry.

: ● [[Aden Dellebecque]] : One of the lodge members Chi enjoys being around. Chi often plays tag along when Aden mentions going out to Stellazio Pizzeria.

: ● [[Marcette Lavellen]] : A fellow mage at the Wandering Tonberry. The two had a rocky beginning, but the two are more or less friends now.

: ● [[Leah Carsen]] : (Leyweaver) Another mage that once worked at the Wandering Tonberry. Chi admires Leah and her extensive book collection. Even some of the more..a-hem.

: ● [[Sirius Cicero]] : A friend of Chi's who wears many a hats. Author and adventurer. He often brings Chi a present or two when he passes thru the lodge. Sometimes a new book? Sometimes a fancy dress from an exotic land.

: ● [[Luthrose Nailothain]] : Luth and Chi met near the Bismark on a rainy day. Minori and Chi took shelter from the rain, bumping into the miqo'te. The two share a love of books and often speak on various new ones that they have read.

: ● [[Lalara Lara]]: Lalara is a ward taken in by Doctor Marcette. Chi views her as a little sister even though Lalara could more than likely protect Chi better than Chi could protect Lalara.
: ● [[Merrick Lockwoord]]: Merrick is a fellow Chi met at the lodge. He came around looking for Flynt. Flynt wasn't around so Chi played tour guide, showing Merrick around and offering a roof over his head. Chi likes the man, from her point of view he is kind.

== Other Notes ==
Tumbler: https://chidorifarcloud.tumblr.com/

=== Wanted for Interesting Roleplay ===

*For Chi specifically, friends are always a good thing. Possibly a teacher/mentor as well.

*Chi the flower girl - Chi loves to make flower pins! Should you want her to give them out at an event or party, just give notice to get her stock up. Chi(& possibly sisters)is happy to come hand out. Please keep in mind, 18+ event aren't something she would attend, so those are out for her.

=== Annotations ===

This Template is a poorly bastardized amalgamation of [[Deirdre Ta'ea]] and [[Bancroft Gairn]] templates.
