Still, she's unlikely to speak much in large groups of people. Though she once flustered very easily, now she seems to be more in control of her emotional states. She no longer wears her heart upon her sleeve. <br /> <br /> <br /> Alcohol loosens her up quite a bit, though it never quite does the full job.

The one person who can bring it out seemingly from nowhere is her sister, Adriel. These days, she seems quicker to anger than she used to be.

Still, her family has run a successful merchant business for four generations and she was taught never to disrespect the wealth itself, or those without it. She grew up in the house her great-grandfather built, the historical family home. <br /> <br /> <br /> As a child, Erisande would forever bring home injured or sick animals she found while exploring in the woods. Every time, her grandmother helped her take those animals to the conjurers to be healed and later released back to the forest. One time they brought an injured marmot, and a kindly older conjurer assisted. The woman perhaps sensed something in Erisande, and encouraged her to lay a hand on the creature so she could "feel the ache subside". Erisande obeyed, and could feel the frightened creature's heart in her ears and in her mind as the conjurer spoke to her. Before she realized it, Erisande herself had healed the creature. The conjurer encouraged her to return when she was older to learn the ways of conjury, though she never found the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> When she was ten, her parents entered into a betrothal arrangement for her. Sebastian Delorme, only a year older at the time, was the son of one of her father's merchant contacts in Limsa Lominsa. Further, the Delormes had been friends to the Marchands for two generations. Erisande frequently accompanied her father on all manner of trips to Limsa Lominsa, both to better understand the business and to spend time with the Delormes to ensure it would be a good match. Erisande and Sebastian became good friends, and he helped draw her out of her shy shell. For many years she considered him her only friend. As they both began to blossom, they flirted with romance. A single year before the wedding was planned to occur, the Delorme house caught fire and killed the entire family. In the aftermath, it was discovered that the house was looted before the fire was set on purpose. Further investigation revealed that Sebastian's father was in debt with some of the less savory residents of Limsa Lominsa. Although nothing was conclusive, it's believed that they came to collect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Erisande went into a period of grief. The day of the planned wedding came and went, and still she mourned for the friend and would be lover that she had lost. Though her parents encouraged her to seek out another potential match, she instead threw herself into crafting. She would spend hours, sometimes entire days before the weaving loom, crafting bolt after bolt of fine cloth. She continued to accompany her father on trading trips, and had started taking a few of her own when there was a need. <br /> <br /> <br /> A couple of years after Sebastian's death, her elder brother Emile heeded the call to adventure. His departure further saddened Erisande, for she'd always been close with her elder brother more than her younger siblings. Emile left with Jacyn Arcenciel, her sister's husband. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===After the Calamity===<br /> With the world in chaos but the woods of Gridania relatively safe, the Marchand family took in refugees of all sorts. The grand house with its many rooms offered people a chance to start over, while keeping their families safe and clothed and fed. Erisande worked tirelessly to help those in need - weaving blankets and clothing, or working in the kitchen to prepare food. The crafting halls of the house also served to teach those refugees a new craft. Though many have moved on as the world rebuilds, some of those refugees remain to make goods for the house and for the business. <br /> <br /> <br /> The family has had no word from Emile or Jacyn since the Battle of Carteneau and they are presumed dead. Erisande's father Isaac took the news of his son's death very hard. To deal with his grief, he threw himself into his work and travels Eorzea buying and selling goods for the family and the refugees of their house. Although the family has not actually heard from him in several years, he is presumed to be alive. <br /> <br /> <br /> A few years after the Calamity, the Matriarch of House Marchand, Erisande's mother, was found dead out in the woods of the Shroud one day. The initial evidence pointed to an animal attack. However, her sister Adriel discovered treachery from the Garlean empire - goods that were being smuggled through House Marchand without their knowledge. Their mother had discovered the evidence and put a stop to it, but not in time to protect herself from their wrath. With both parents gone, most of the responsibility for the house fell to Erisande herself. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===Recent Events===<br /> <br /> Determined to find distance from the seemingly never ending hardships she faced, Erisande left Gridania a year ago to find refuge in Coerthas among the noble houses. Though she spent much of her time training with the soldiers of House Fortemps, she flitted around the area aiding those most in need with her growing healing skill. Traveling all throughout the snowy tundra, she trained her mind and her body in conjury while hardening her heart to the burdens of love. <br /> <br /> <br /> A true conjurer at last, she has taken up the mantle of "adventurer", helping where she is needed. Though she has new responsibilities, she continues to oversee the business of House Marchand, and has returned to the joy of her weaving loom. <br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:8px; border: 2px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);"><center><span style="font-size: 24px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);">Relationships</span></center></div>==<br /> <br /> <table style='position:center;'><br /> <tr><br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> <br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Family</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> * Father Isaac Marchand (missing & presumed alive)<br /> <br /> * Mother Whitney Marchand (deceased)<br /> <br /> * Older brother Emile Marchand (missing & presumed dead)<br /> <br /> * Younger sister [[Adriel Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Younger brother [[Aulairet Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Cousin Ydaine Marchand<br /> <br /> * Cousin [[Taeh Marchand]] (adopted)<br /> <br /> * Second Cousin [[Isielin Danar'i]]<br /> </div><br /> </td><br /> <br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Friends</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> <br /> * Sebastian Delorme (First Love) - Betrothed when she was 10, Sebastian was Erisande's best and only friend for most of her teenage years.

Still, her family has run a successful merchant business for four generations and she was taught never to disrespect the wealth itself, or those without it. She grew up in the house her great-grandfather built, the historical family home. <br /> <br /> <br /> As a child, Erisande would forever bring home injured or sick animals she found while exploring in the woods. Every time, her grandmother helped her take those animals to the conjurers to be healed and later released back to the forest. One time they brought an injured marmot, and a kindly older conjurer assisted. The woman perhaps sensed something in Erisande, and encouraged her to lay a hand on the creature so she could "feel the ache subside". Erisande obeyed, and could feel the frightened creature's heart in her ears and in her mind as the conjurer spoke to her. Before she realized it, Erisande herself had healed the creature. The conjurer encouraged her to return when she was older to learn the ways of conjury, though she never found the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> When she was ten, her parents entered into a betrothal arrangement for her. Sebastian Delorme, only a year older at the time, was the son of one of her father's merchant contacts in Limsa Lominsa. Further, the Delormes had been friends to the Marchands for two generations. Erisande frequently accompanied her father on all manner of trips to Limsa Lominsa, both to better understand the business and to spend time with the Delormes to ensure it would be a good match. Erisande and Sebastian became good friends, and he helped draw her out of her shy shell. For many years she considered him her only friend. As they both began to blossom, they flirted with romance. A single year before the wedding was planned to occur, the Delorme house caught fire and killed the entire family. In the aftermath, it was discovered that the house was looted before the fire was set on purpose. Further investigation revealed that Sebastian's father was in debt with some of the less savory residents of Limsa Lominsa. Although nothing was conclusive, it's believed that they came to collect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Erisande went into a period of grief. The day of the planned wedding came and went, and still she mourned for the friend and would be lover that she had lost. Though her parents encouraged her to seek out another potential match, she instead threw herself into crafting. She would spend hours, sometimes entire days before the weaving loom, crafting bolt after bolt of fine cloth. She continued to accompany her father on trading trips, and had started taking a few of her own when there was a need. <br /> <br /> <br /> A couple of years after Sebastian's death, her elder brother Emile heeded the call to adventure. His departure further saddened Erisande, for she'd always been close with her elder brother more than her younger siblings. Emile left with Jacyn Arcenciel, her sister's husband. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===After the Calamity===<br /> With the world in chaos but the woods of Gridania relatively safe, the Marchand family took in refugees of all sorts. The grand house with its many rooms offered people a chance to start over, while keeping their families safe and clothed and fed. Erisande worked tirelessly to help those in need - weaving blankets and clothing, or working in the kitchen to prepare food. The crafting halls of the house also served to teach those refugees a new craft. Though many have moved on as the world rebuilds, some of those refugees remain to make goods for the house and for the business. <br /> <br /> <br /> The family has had no word from Emile or Jacyn since the Battle of Carteneau and they are presumed dead. Erisande's father Isaac took the news of his son's death very hard. To deal with his grief, he threw himself into his work and travels Eorzea buying and selling goods for the family and the refugees of their house. Although the family has not actually heard from him in several years, he is presumed to be alive. <br /> <br /> <br /> A few years after the Calamity, the Matriarch of House Marchand, Erisande's mother, was found dead out in the woods of the Shroud one day. The initial evidence pointed to an animal attack. However, her sister Adriel discovered treachery from the Garlean empire - goods that were being smuggled through House Marchand without their knowledge. Their mother had discovered the evidence and put a stop to it, but not in time to protect herself from their wrath. With both parents gone, most of the responsibility for the house fell to Erisande herself. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===Recent Events===<br /> <br /> Determined to find distance from the seemingly never ending hardships she faced, Erisande left Gridania a year ago to find refuge in Coerthas among the noble houses. Though she spent much of her time training with the soldiers of House Fortemps, she flitted around the area aiding those most in need with her growing healing skill. Traveling all throughout the snowy tundra, she trained her mind and her body in conjury while hardening her heart to the burdens of love. <br /> <br /> <br /> A true conjurer at last, she has taken up the mantle of "adventurer", helping where she is needed. Though she has new responsibilities, she continues to oversee the business of House Marchand, and has returned to the joy of her weaving loom. <br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:8px; border: 2px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);"><center><span style="font-size: 24px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);">Relationships</span></center></div>==<br /> <br /> <table style='position:center;'><br /> <tr><br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> <br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Family</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> * Father Isaac Marchand (missing & presumed alive)<br /> <br /> * Mother Whitney Marchand (deceased)<br /> <br /> * Older brother Emile Marchand (missing & presumed dead)<br /> <br /> * Younger sister [[Adriel Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Cousin Ydaine Marchand<br /> <br /> * Cousin [[Taeh Marchand]] (adopted)<br /> <br /> * Second Cousin [[Isielin Danar'i]]<br /> </div><br /> </td><br /> <br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Friends</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> <br /> * Sebastian Delorme (First Love) - Betrothed when she was 10, Sebastian was Erisande's best and only friend for most of her teenage years.

Still, her family has run a successful merchant business for four generations and she was taught never to disrespect the wealth itself, or those without it. She grew up in the house her great-grandfather built, the historical family home. <br /> <br /> <br /> As a child, Erisande would forever bring home injured or sick animals she found while exploring in the woods. Every time, her grandmother helped her take those animals to the conjurers to be healed and later released back to the forest. One time they brought an injured marmot, and a kindly older conjurer assisted. The woman perhaps sensed something in Erisande, and encouraged her to lay a hand on the creature so she could "feel the ache subside". Erisande obeyed, and could feel the frightened creature's heart in her ears and in her mind as the conjurer spoke to her. Before she realized it, Erisande herself had healed the creature. The conjurer encouraged her to return when she was older to learn the ways of conjury, though she never found the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> When she was ten, her parents entered into a betrothal arrangement for her. Sebastian Delorme, only a year older at the time, was the son of one of her father's merchant contacts in Limsa Lominsa. Further, the Delormes had been friends to the Marchands for two generations. Erisande frequently accompanied her father on all manner of trips to Limsa Lominsa, both to better understand the business and to spend time with the Delormes to ensure it would be a good match. Erisande and Sebastian became good friends, and he helped draw her out of her shy shell. For many years she considered him her only friend. As they both began to blossom, they flirted with romance. A single year before the wedding was planned to occur, the Delorme house caught fire and killed the entire family. In the aftermath, it was discovered that the house was looted before the fire was set on purpose. Further investigation revealed that Sebastian's father was in debt with some of the less savory residents of Limsa Lominsa. Although nothing was conclusive, it's believed that they came to collect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Erisande went into a period of grief. The day of the planned wedding came and went, and still she mourned for the friend and would be lover that she had lost. Though her parents encouraged her to seek out another potential match, she instead threw herself into crafting. She would spend hours, sometimes entire days before the weaving loom, crafting bolt after bolt of fine cloth. She continued to accompany her father on trading trips, and had started taking a few of her own when there was a need. <br /> <br /> <br /> A couple of years after Sebastian's death, her elder brother Emile heeded the call to adventure. His departure further saddened Erisande, for she'd always been close with her elder brother more than her younger siblings. Emile left with Jacyn Arcenciel, her sister's husband. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===After the Calamity===<br /> With the world in chaos but the woods of Gridania relatively safe, the Marchand family took in refugees of all sorts. The grand house with its many rooms offered people a chance to start over, while keeping their families safe and clothed and fed. Erisande worked tirelessly to help those in need - weaving blankets and clothing, or working in the kitchen to prepare food. The crafting halls of the house also served to teach those refugees a new craft. Though many have moved on as the world rebuilds, some of those refugees remain to make goods for the house and for the business. <br /> <br /> <br /> The family has had no word from Emile or Jacyn since the Battle of Carteneau and they are presumed dead. Erisande's father Isaac took the news of his son's death very hard. To deal with his grief, he threw himself into his work and travels Eorzea buying and selling goods for the family and the refugees of their house. Although the family has not actually heard from him in several years, he is presumed to be alive. <br /> <br /> <br /> A few years after the Calamity, the Matriarch of House Marchand, Erisande's mother, was found dead out in the woods of the Shroud one day. The initial evidence pointed to an animal attack. However, her sister Adriel discovered treachery from the Garlean empire - goods that were being smuggled through House Marchand without their knowledge. Their mother had discovered the evidence and put a stop to it, but not in time to protect herself from their wrath. With both parents gone, most of the responsibility for the house fell to Erisande herself. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===Recent Events===<br /> <br /> A year ago, she was crushed when her engagement ended suddenly. Determined to find distance from the seemingly never ending hardships she faced, she found refuge in Coerthas among the noble houses. Though she spent much of her time training with the soldiers of House Fortemps, she flitted around the area aiding those most in need with her growing healing skill. Traveling all throughout the snowy tundra, she trained her mind and her body in conjury while hardening her heart to the burdens of love. She is returning to Gridania at last as a true conjurer and has taken up the mantle of "adventurer", though still she will see to her House's business as needed. <br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:8px; border: 2px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);"><center><span style="font-size: 24px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);">Relationships</span></center></div>==<br /> <br /> <table style='position:center;'><br /> <tr><br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> <br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Family</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> * Father Isaac Marchand (missing & presumed alive)<br /> <br /> * Mother Whitney Marchand (deceased)<br /> <br /> * Older brother Emile Marchand (missing & presumed dead)<br /> <br /> * Younger sister [[Adriel Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Cousin Ydaine Marchand<br /> <br /> * Cousin [[Taeh Marchand]] (adopted)<br /> <br /> * Second Cousin [[Isielin Danar'i]]<br /> </div><br /> </td><br /> <br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Friends</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> <br /> * Sebastian Delorme (First Love) - Betrothed when she was 10, Sebastian was Erisande's best and only friend for most of her teenage years.

Still, her family has run a successful merchant business for four generations and she was taught never to disrespect the wealth itself, or those without it. She grew up in the house her great-grandfather built, the historical family home. <br /> <br /> <br /> As a child, Erisande would forever bring home injured or sick animals she found while exploring in the woods. Every time, her grandmother helped her take those animals to the conjurers to be healed and later released back to the forest. One time they brought an injured marmot, and a kindly older conjurer assisted. The woman perhaps sensed something in Erisande, and encouraged her to lay a hand on the creature so she could "feel the ache subside". Erisande obeyed, and could feel the frightened creature's heart in her ears and in her mind as the conjurer spoke to her. Before she realized it, Erisande herself had healed the creature. The conjurer encouraged her to return when she was older to learn the ways of conjury, though she never found the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> When she was ten, her parents entered into a betrothal arrangement for her. Sebastian Delorme, only a year older at the time, was the son of one of her father's merchant contacts in Limsa Lominsa. Further, the Delormes had been friends to the Marchands for two generations. Erisande frequently accompanied her father on all manner of trips to Limsa Lominsa, both to better understand the business and to spend time with the Delormes to ensure it would be a good match. Erisande and Sebastian became good friends, and he helped draw her out of her shy shell. For many years she considered him her only friend. As they both began to blossom, they flirted with romance. A single year before the wedding was planned to occur, the Delorme house caught fire and killed the entire family. In the aftermath, it was discovered that the house was looted before the fire was set on purpose. Further investigation revealed that Sebastian's father was in debt with some of the less savory residents of Limsa Lominsa. Although nothing was conclusive, it's believed that they came to collect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Erisande went into a period of grief. The day of the planned wedding came and went, and still she mourned for the friend and would be lover that she had lost. Though her parents encouraged her to seek out another potential match, she instead threw herself into crafting. She would spend hours, sometimes entire days before the weaving loom, crafting bolt after bolt of fine cloth. She continued to accompany her father on trading trips, and had started taking a few of her own when there was a need. <br /> <br /> <br /> A couple of years after Sebastian's death, her elder brother Emile heeded the call to adventure. His departure further saddened Erisande, for she'd always been close with her elder brother more than her younger siblings. Emile left with Jacyn Arcenciel, her sister's husband. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===After the Calamity===<br /> With the world in chaos but the woods of Gridania relatively safe, the Marchand family took in refugees of all sorts. The grand house with its many rooms offered people a chance to start over, while keeping their families safe and clothed and fed. Erisande worked tirelessly to help those in need - weaving blankets and clothing, or working in the kitchen to prepare food. The crafting halls of the house also served to teach those refugees a new craft. Though many have moved on as the world rebuilds, some of those refugees remain to make goods for the house and for the business. <br /> <br /> <br /> The family has had no word from Emile or Jacyn since the Battle of Carteneau and they are presumed dead. Erisande's father Isaac took the news of his son's death very hard. To deal with his grief, he threw himself into his work and travels Eorzea buying and selling goods for the family and the refugees of their house. Although the family has not actually heard from him in several years, he is presumed to be alive. <br /> <br /> <br /> A few years after the Calamity, the Matriarch of House Marchand, Erisande's mother, was found dead out in the woods of the Shroud one day. The initial evidence pointed to an animal attack. However, her sister Adriel discovered treachery from the Garlean empire - goods that were being smuggled through House Marchand without their knowledge. Their mother had discovered the evidence and put a stop to it, but not in time to protect herself from their wrath. With both parents gone, most of the responsibility for the house fell to Erisande herself. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===Recent Events===<br /> <br /> Throughout recent months, Erisande has watched as one friend after another was either injured or threatened by someone or something. When her intended groom was injured in an attack right before her eyes, she decided enough was enough. Refusing to be helpless any longer, she finally took the time away from her merchant duties to study conjury. Though she is still no expert at the healing arts, she has grown by leaps and bounds and tries to find opportunities to practice. <br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:8px; border: 2px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);"><center><span style="font-size: 24px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);">Relationships</span></center></div>==<br /> <br /> <table style='position:center;'><br /> <tr><br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> <br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Family</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> * Father Isaac Marchand (missing & presumed alive)<br /> <br /> * Mother Whitney Marchand (deceased)<br /> <br /> * Older brother Emile Marchand (missing & presumed dead)<br /> <br /> * Younger sister [[Adriel Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Younger brother [[Aulairet Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Cousin Ydaine Marchand<br /> <br /> * Cousin [[Taeh Marchand]] (adopted)<br /> <br /> * Second Cousin [[Isielin Danar'i]]<br /> </div><br /> </td><br /> <br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Friends</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> <br /> * [[Tyriont Gaidal]] - Erisande met the pirate Captain at [[Soliloquy Tavern]] and was instantly charmed by him.

The family and its livelihood are of paramount importance to her, and it usually shows. Though it takes a lot of needling to get her angry, she does have a temper.

Still, her family has run a successful merchant business for four generations and she was taught never to disrespect the wealth itself, or those without it. She grew up in the house her great-grandfather built, the historical family home. <br /> <br /> <br /> As a child, Erisande would forever bring home injured or sick animals she found while exploring in the woods. Every time, her grandmother helped her take those animals to the conjurers to be healed and later released back to the forest. One time they brought an injured marmot, and a kindly older conjurer assisted. The woman perhaps sensed something in Erisande, and encouraged her to lay a hand on the creature so she could "feel the ache subside". Erisande obeyed, and could feel the frightened creature's heart in her ears and in her mind as the conjurer spoke to her. Before she realized it, Erisande herself had healed the creature. The conjurer encouraged her to return when she was older to learn the ways of conjury, though she never found the time.<br /> <br /> <br /> When she was ten, her parents entered into a betrothal arrangement for her. Sebastian Delorme, only a year older at the time, was the son of one of her father's merchant contacts in Limsa Lominsa. Further, the Delormes had been friends to the Marchands for two generations. Erisande frequently accompanied her father on all manner of trips to Limsa Lominsa, both to better understand the business and to spend time with the Delormes to ensure it would be a good match. Erisande and Sebastian became good friends, and he helped draw her out of her shy shell. For many years she considered him her only friend. As they both began to blossom, they flirted with romance. A single year before the wedding was planned to occur, the Delorme house caught fire and killed the entire family. In the aftermath, it was discovered that the house was looted before the fire was set on purpose. Further investigation revealed that Sebastian's father was in debt with some of the less savory residents of Limsa Lominsa. Although nothing was conclusive, it's believed that they came to collect. <br /> <br /> <br /> Erisande went into a period of grief. The day of the planned wedding came and went, and still she mourned for the friend and would be lover that she had lost. Though her parents encouraged her to seek out another potential match, she instead threw herself into crafting. She would spend hours, sometimes entire days before the weaving loom, crafting bolt after bolt of fine cloth. She continued to accompany her father on trading trips, and had started taking a few of her own when there was a need. <br /> <br /> <br /> A couple of years after Sebastian's death, her elder brother Emile heeded the call to adventure. His departure further saddened Erisande, for she'd always been close with her elder brother more than her younger siblings. Emile left with Jacyn Arcenciel, her sister's husband. <br /> <br /> <br /> ===After the Calamity===<br /> With the world in chaos but the woods of Gridania relatively safe, the Marchand family took in refugees of all sorts. The grand house with its many rooms offered people a chance to start over, while keeping their families safe and clothed and fed. Erisande worked tirelessly to help those in need - weaving blankets and clothing, or working in the kitchen to prepare food. The crafting halls of the house also served to teach those refugees a new craft. Though many have moved on as the world rebuilds, some of those refugees remain to make goods for the house and for the business. <br /> <br /> <br /> The family has had no word from Emile or Jacyn since the Battle of Carteneau and they are presumed dead. Erisande's father Isaac took the news of his son's death very hard. To deal with his grief, he threw himself into his work and travels Eorzea buying and selling goods for the family and the refugees of their house. Although the family has not actually heard from him in many months, he is presumed to be alive. <br /> <br /> <br /> Tragedy struck a few months ago when Erisande's mother was found dead out in the woods of the Shroud. With the former matron of House Marchand gone, most of the responsibility for the house has fallen to Erisande herself.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:8px; border: 2px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);"><center><span style="font-size: 24px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);">Relationships</span></center></div>==<br /> <br /> <table style='position:center;'><br /> <tr><br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> <br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Family</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> * Father Isaac Marchand (missing & presumed alive)<br /> <br /> * Mother Whitney Marchand (deceased)<br /> <br /> * Older brother Emile Marchand (missing & presumed dead)<br /> <br /> * Younger sister [[Adriel Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Younger brother [[Aulairet Marchand]]<br /> <br /> * Cousin Ydaine Marchand<br /> <br /> * Cousin [[Taeh Marchand]] (adopted)<br /> <br /> * Second Cousin [[Isielin Danar'i]]<br /> </div><br /> </td><br /> <br /> <td width=50% valign='top'><br /> ===<center><div style='padding:8px 35px; border: 1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); background: rgb(59, 72, 59);font-size:16px; color: rgb(213, 200, 185); font-family: book antiqua; 8px 8px 8px rgb(129, 200, 209);'>Friends</div></center>===<br /> <br /> <div style='border:1px solid rgb(236, 174, 33); padding:16px;'><br /> <br /> * [[Tyriont Gaidal]] - Erisande met the pirate Captain at [[Soliloquy Tavern]] and was instantly charmed by him.

Those who get to know and understand him will find that he is in many ways a man who has been broken by the circumstances of his life prior to the cataclysm and is now a mess of contradicting actions and beliefs.''<br /> <br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Character</span></div>==<br /> <br /> '''Aliases/Nicknames:''' During his time he's met many individuals a few even have even given him nicknames. None of which bother him as he has been called many things over the years, many significantly worse than the names he's received now.<br /> <br /> ''"Wolfsong/'Wilfbroda'"'': A name used to refer to him by [[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]].<br /> <br /> ''"Wolf"'': A name used to refer to him by [[Qaeli Varily]].<br /> <br /> ''"Lobo"'': A name used to refer to him by [[Sila Neve]].<br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Appearance</span></div>==<br /> <br /> '''Face:''' His face is scarred, Most would assume that the scars are from combat, while true for one or two, they are due primarily to years of physical abuse at the hands of his guardian. His face is rough and rugged due to constant exposure to the elements. He bears the traditional dark blue facial tattoos of the Wolfsong clan given to him by his father at the age of five. He inherited his Dark Ginger hair from his Mother, which he keeps in what is known to his clan as the "Warrior's Wolf Knot". His face is regularly unshaven as he doesn't worry much about his looks living in the wilds.<br /> <br /> '''Eyes:''' His eyes are a piercing hazel color; those with a high natural empathy will see a deep seated self hatred/sadness/Loneliness reflected in his eyes. Conversely, when angry or enraged which does not occur often they take on the feral look of his namesake animal and reflect a dark side lying within the young man that is kept under lock and key.<br /> <br /> '''Body:''' Years of hard labor, living in the wilds, and training with any fighting style he can has earned him a well chiseled body of muscle and strength. Something that he makes sure to cover as much as possible, due to the fact that the majority of his back, chest, arms, legs, and abdomen are covered in deep scars and burns. Remnants of his abuse at the hands of his guardian Ortolf Frostheart, these are a source of intense shame and are one of the things that regularly fuel his bouts of depression. They are also something that few people, if any, have ever seen and one of the primary reasons he avoids living in towns or cities.<br /> <br /> ==<div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Behavior</span></div>==<br /> <br /> {| align=right<br /> |-<br /> |<br /> [[File:Gharen&Abigail640.png|500px|]]<br /> |}<br /> '''Voice:''' Gharen speaks with an accent of the highlander clans that inhabited the mountains north of Ala Mhigo,(I.e. Scottish) His voice is generally friendly and non threatening, unless something has been done to earn his ire, in extreme cases it can become vicious and dark.<br /> <br /> '''Demeanor:''' Gharen is quiet and somber, and generally doesn't deal well with others whether it just be simple etiquette or conversation, it is extremely rare for him to smile, even more so is the individual that can regularly coax one out of him. His stance and motion belie someone versed in multiple forms of combat.<br /> <br /> '''Personality:''' (Social setting) Gharen is prone to self isolation, and when in a group of socializing individuals tends to sit off the side and just listen hoping to be ignored simply trying to blend in the background and disappear.<br /> <br /> (Combat) In combat Gharen finds some measure of respite, while still quiet, he becomes focused and his mind does not wander down the dark paths that plague him and lead to him brooding.<br /> <br /> '''Flaws:''' Above all else he believes that his life is of little to no worth and that no one will mourn or notice it's passing, he also sees himself as horribly disfigured by the scars that adorn much his body, and as a result, will be alone for the remainder of his days. These two conditions lead him to be more willing than most to put others before himself to his own detriment, or in an extreme case, to throw his own life away, as death in the defense of others in his mind, might in some small way add value to a life that has none.<br /> <br /> '''Intelligence:''' Gharen is not stupid by any means, unfortunately after the age of five he did not receive a formal education, most of what he knows was self taught. Reading, writing, basic fighting forms. Etc.<br /> <br /> '''Religious Views:''' Before the occupation of Ala Mhigo he belonged to a devout family that fervently believed in the twelve, and paid their respects Halone, the Fury and Azeyma, the Warden. Some time after, during his time in Little Ala Mhigo while in the hands of his abusive guardian he had lost his faith in the divine. Believing that any higher being that would not listen to the prayers of an abused child, or intervene in some way was not worth worshiping. After eight cycles of traveling Eorzea, he returned to Ul'Dah and met [[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]], her devout belief seems to be slowly rekindling his as he has openly admitted to her that perhaps Halone put him on his path, and Azeyma may have led him back to the one that had given him hope.<br /> <br /> '''The Wolf:''' "The Wolf" is the psychological representation of Gharen's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Id,_ego_and_super-ego Id], it is also the darkness within him that characters with a high empathy will feel. This aspect of his psyche lies closer to the surface than it does for most due to years of physical and psychological trauma. It represents all of the locked away anger, hatred, and pain he has experienced in his life, it also represents his will to survive, It does not make it's presence known often, but when it does it is savage and feral, it's only goal is to destroy potential threats that cause it harm, it last appeared eight cycles ago to viciously kill Ortolf Frostheart.<br /> <br /> '''Romance:''' Years of physical and mental abuse coupled with isolation have left Gharen with a deeply held belief that he is horribly disfigured and unworthy of any woman's interest, any romantic feelings he may have for someone will be locked away and not be openly expressed due to this. Things like physical touch have become psychologically associated with pain, doing so will cause him to jump slightly and become visibly uncomfortable, more intimate contact will only exacerbate this. When talking to a woman he will be Polite, professional and courteous but become uncomfortable should topics shift to him and his past, when hard pressed with intimate questions he will become extremely ashamed and embarrassed of himself.<br /> <br /> == <div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Combat</span></div> ==<br /> <br /> === General ===<br /> <br /> Gharen aims to become a weapon master, an individual who can pick up any weapon and use it to great effect. When asked why Gharen will become evasive and give a generalized answer ''"Te prove a point te someone."'' While not a lie he intends to prove it to two people. First, To himself that it can be done, and second, to a dead man, Ortolf Frostheart, the Guardian that abused him for 13 years, or more to the point, the memory of a dead man.<br /> [[Image:Dragonfire.png ‎|550px|left|]]<br /> '''Style:''' Gharen's preferred weapon is the Lance, which he can use both offensively and defensively to great effect. Keeping his enemies at bay, allowing him to control the flow of battle, and keeping his opponents guessing. He will from time to time employ techniques he has learned from studying other various forms of combat as a weapon master. He is also extremely proficient with a sword and shield having trained as a free paladin.<br /> <br /> '''Strengths:''' Believing that the each known martial style of combat form a wheel, and every style is but a single spoke in that wheel, obtaining even a fundamental understanding of these various methods of combat offer insight and adaptability to whatever weapon focus is used and or faced. The weapon master is able given a wider range of options in order to think outside of the box in the heat of battle and enhancing overall survivability potential for victory by using unconventional tactics in order to keep opponents guessing, and off balance.<br /> <br /> '''Weaknesses:''' The path of becoming a weapon master runs the danger being a Jack of all trades and master of none, leaving oneself open to defeat at the hands of a more specialized opponent. Garnering the fundamentals, then specific specialization, builds a stronger foundation that can be built upon as time goes by.<br /> <br /> '''Pain Tolerance:''' Due to the years of physical abuse at the hands of his guardian Gharen has learned how to control pain he may feel. This is not to say he does not feel pain, he simply knows how to not acknowledge it, and fight through it.<br /> <br /> == <div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Tendencies</span></div> ==<br /> <br /> === Likes ===<br /> <br /> ::*The sound, smell, and feel of rain falling.<br /> ::*The heat of battle.<br /> ::*Training<br /> <br /> === Dislikes ===<br /> <br /> ::*Himself<br /> ::*Those that would push others around for their own benefit.<br /> <br /> == <div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Relationships</span></div> ==<br /> <br /> === Family ===<br /> <br /> '''Gregor Wolfsong:''' A blacksmith by trade, Gregor originated from one of the outlying villages in the mountainous northern regions of Ala Mhigan territory there was a warrior and hunter, On one of his trips into Ala Mhigo he met Aline, courted her, and eventually the two married. It was after this he took up blacksmithing in order to provide for his beginning family. He never lost his pride in his heritage though, and would tell the stories of the Wolfsong clan that he grew up with to his son. Gregor was killed when the Garlean empire took control Ala Mhigo 20 years ago.<br /> <br /> '''Aline Wolfsong:''' Aline grew up to a middle class family within the walls of Ala Mhigo, at the time she met Gregor she was weaver in her fathers shop in merchants alley. Aline was killed when the Garlean empire took control Ala Mhigo 20 years ago.<br /> <br /> '''Kayle Wolfsong:''' Gharen's sister, slightly older than one year of age when the Garlean empire came to power in Ala Mhigo, She is presumed dead.<br /> <br /> '''Silent Mountain:''' The local smith in a small village that lied on the border between Mor Dhona and Thanalan. A stubborn old Roe who refused to speak common, It was from him that Gharen learned smithing, mining, and to understand and speak some of the Hellsguard tongue, Mountain was the closest thing to a father figure Gharen had since his family was killed. It is unknown if Silent Mountain and his family still live as the village was razed during the calamity.<br /> <br /> === Friends ===<br /> <br /> [[A'khenna Khai]] - A young Miqo'te that has taken apprenticeship under Siobhain. He respects her abilities in combat but treats her as almost a younger sister as she would almost be the same age as his. He Feels the need to teach her what he can so that she is prepared for the harsh realities of the world.<br /> <br /> [[A’nzil Oenomaus]] - A young Miqo'te that has taken apprenticeship under Gharen. In many ways A'nzil reminds Gharen of himself when he was a child, a scared kid that doesn't see a way out. Gharen aims to help A'nzil find the "Heart of a Coeurl" that beats within his chest and turn a scared kid into a young man that fights for what he believes in despite the fear inside of him.<br /> <br /> [[Brynhilde Wulf]] - ((WIP))<br /> <br /> [[Fleeting Dawn]] - ((WIP))<br /> <br /> [[Jajara Jara]] - One of the kindest and most giving individuals Gharen has met since his return to Thanalan, he considers himself lucky to count her among his friends.<br /> <br /> [[Obsidian Hornet]] - The woman known as Obsidian Hornet has earned no small measure of respect, and trust in the brief time since they've met. She has a tendency to throw Gharen off balance with her forward nature and the fact that she does little if anything to mask her intentions. The few interactions he's had with her though have led him to believe that there is more to the woman than even she knows or is willing to admit. Recently, their interactions have led him to consider some of the deeply held negative beliefs about himself.<br /> <br /> [[Qaeli Varily]] - A silver haired Hyur woman whom Gharen met via The Grindstone tournaments, he respects and trusts the woman with his life. The two having spent almost a month together in the frigid lands of Coerthas, tracked down Qaeli's sister and attempted to find a cure for [[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn|Siobhain's]] aetheric illness. He regards her as the closest thing he has had to family in a long time, but would never say so openly.<br /> <br /> [[Sila Neve]] - A young Wildwood Elezen that is both inquisitive and straight to the point. In their one conversation to date she managed to get Gharen to admit several very personal things about himself that he otherwise never would have.<br /> <br /> [[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]] - Gharen and Siobhain have a shared history that spans into their childhood. As a child he'd caught glimpses of a shy Roegadyn girl with white hair that he found beautiful, never knowing her name, her image eventually came to symbolize something in the mind of the tortured young man, Hope. Never officially meeting and discovering this history until only recently.<br /> <br /> === Enemies ===<br /> <br /> ((None at this time))<br /> <br /> == <div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">Rumors</span></div> ==<br /> <br /> ===<div style='background: #0f0e1c;font-size:14px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: century gothic; '>Common Rumors:</div>===<br /> <br /> ::*"Yeah tha' Highlander fellow comes here inte th' smitty' an helps out fer a days wage.

The family managed to survive this tumultuous time only to be torn apart when the Garlean Empire occupied the city. Though casualties of the occupation were few Gharen's father and mother were among them, his sister, at only a year and a half old at the time is also believed to have been killed. <br /> <br /> Taken from the scene of his family’s death and escaping with refugees, it was during this time in the trek to Ul'dah that Gharen was put into the care of Ortolf Frostheart. Gharen's new guardian turned out to be both a drunk and viciously abusive.<br /> <br /> '''1557-1569 Little Ala Mhigo'''<br /> <br /> For twelve cycles Gharen lived a tortured existence under the "care" of his guardian. The scars he bears both physically and mentally are due to this period of time, broken bones due to vicious beatings, Burns from hot irons and lit torches, it was during this time that Gharen had forsaken the faith in the twelve instilled to him by his parents. It was also during this time Gharen had several brief encounters with a young [[Siobhain Surtsthalwyn]] though the two did not formally meet until years later. At the age of 17 Gharen had reached his low point, he was prepared to die, Siobhain and several Sultansworn witnessed openly the physical abuse, and while Siobhain was prepared to stop it the others opted to ignore it. It was that night that Gharen's Id awakened for the first time and he brutally killed Ortolf Frostheart.<br /> <br /> '''1569-1572 The Wilds'''<br /> <br /> After leaving Little Ala Mhigo, Gharen fled north, his distrust of people was so inherent he avoided villages and outposts all together. He had made camp on the outskirts of a small village on the Ishgardian border, living off the land as best as he could, he was barely surviving his first three months in the wilds and winter was nearing. Desperation eventually drove the young man to enter the village and find some way to get the supplies he would need to last the winter. It was during this time he met the local Blacksmith, an old Roegadyn Hellsguard by the name of Silent Mountain and his family, though it took some convincing, he had managed a job. He spent the next year learning the trades of smithing and mining under the gruff old Roegadyn and his sons, though he continued to live in several areas outside of town, never staying in the same camp for more than a couple of days at a time.<br /> <br /> ((work in progress))<br /> <br /> '''1572-Present'''<br /> <br /> ((work in progress))<br /> <br /> == <div style="padding:5px; border: 2px solid #395c80; background: #0f0e1c; border-radius:15px;"><span style="font-size: 28px; color: #c8c8c8; font-family: Old English Text MT; text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #4494b9, 8px 8px 8px #81c8d1;">OOC notes</span></div> ==<br /> <br /> :* Gharen is something of an experiment in RP, events will influence how he turns out, ultimately either good, or bad.<br /> :* Individuals that live(d) in Little Ala Mhigo during the timeline listed above may remember Gharen and his Guardian.

In fact, the inside resembles an old market ward, gutted and refurbished with a bar to one side and a stage to the other. Large, round tables are scattered between, save for a cleared area in the center. The whole place is draped in red silks and satins. A bartender busies themselves at the bar top cleaning glasses, ready for any incoming orders, while a dancing duo, one a Miqo'te woman and one a Hyur lass, whirl gracefully around each other on stage...''</blockquote><br /> <br /> :Currently, Soliloquy is located in the Limsa Lominsa, though once we secure housing for a in-game tavern, we'll be moving the location to Mist. We plan on using the tavern in Wineport as a setting placeholder until we can get player housing. (Note: we by no means mean to claim the Wineport bar location as our own and do not intend to try and shoulder other groups out if we find them RPing there first. We ask that when we RP there that everyone understand and makes it clear to others that we are simply using the location as a placeholder and that we are not actually in Wineport itself. We understand this might come off as a little confusing, but please bear with us.

They had big plans in the beginning, a theater troupe and a play to start them all off, but when no one stepped up to take on the role of leader, they let the idea drift off into oblivion for a while.<br /> <br /> :Enter Xenedra Ambreaus, freshly free from the disbanded Eorzean Guard and bored out of her mind. With her feather duster of revitalization, she dusted clean the idea she and her friends had had all those months before and began to take steps toward actually bringing the concept to life. With the help of one of the aforementioned friends, Myllor Aurelion, she was able to purchase a long abandoned building in the Ward District of Limsa Lominsa and began the process of gutting the cobweb farm and building it anew. (Special thanks to Gospel Gestalt: carpenter and Endemerrin Rosethorne: electrician!)<br /> <br /> :In what seemed like no time, her work was finished and the grand opening came and went. However, not long after, the red ball of death in the sky, Dalamud, started to become an ever closer looming threat. Literally. As a member of Limsa Lominsa's Maelstrom Company, Xenedra was constantly pulled away from the tavern and so the doors were closed not long after they were opened. Then, during the doomed Battle of Carteneau she and many others disappeared, presumed killed by Bahamut's Mega Flare.<br /> <br /> :This left the tavern in the sole ownership of Myllor. Rather than liquidate it and its assets to make back his investment, however, he chose to reopen and run the tavern in Xenedra's memory. For the past five years, with the help of Xenedra's hired bar wench, Abaigeal Causland, Myllor has kept Soliloquy going. Recently, with the return of Xenedra (and the other missing Grand Company members), activity at the tavern has picked up once more and the dream is once again on the rise.<br /> <br /> ==Website==<br /> :[http://soliloquy-xiv-roleplay.enjin.com/home Enjin Website]<br /> <br /> :We RP in the chatroom nightly and the forums have available space for RP as well!<br /> <br /> :We also host a constant RP chat on Skype while the game is down.

Although he's not heavily muscled, he's very strong despite his lean and lanky build; and of course he's agile and fast, like the rest of his Wildwood brethren. <br /> He tends to slouch, and when he walks it's either with a relaxed gait or a drunken stagger depending on when you catch up with him. <br /> Usually has a glassy, hazy look to his heavy lidded eyes.

He was the youngest of four children, and didn't have many responsibilities to worry about. He had alot of free time and got into childish mischief frequently. Qual also spent alot of time in the House's kitchens, mostly to mooch sweets from the cooks. But the cooks tired of having Qual underfoot all the time, so they put him to work. Washing the tables and floors at first, but then helping to cook meals for the House. <br /> <br /> He really liked cooking and spent alot of time learning everything he could about it. By his 10th namesday he had taken up archery as well. Mostly just for recreation and excersise but he turned out to have a knack for it.<br /> <br /> Just before his 14th namesday, his eldest brother along with his brother-in-law departed House Marchand. They were last heard from as they made their way to what would become known as the Battle of Carteneau. Qual's father took his brother's disappearance pretty badly, and buried himself in business to deal with his grief. He took to the roads as a traveling merchant.<br /> <br /> Not very long after that, the Calamity struck. While terrifying, Aulairet was never in any truely imminent danger. He remained at the House with his family. <br /> <br /> After the initial chaos had settled and things began to return to normal, Qual decided it was time to get more serious about his training. He didn't spend as much time creating in the kitchens. Instead he practiced much more intensely at his archery, even enrolling in the archer's guild as well as the conjurer's guild in hopes of developing himself to his full potential as a Bard.<br /> <br /> For a time he thrived, excelling at his training remarkably. But slowly, his enthusiasm began to wane. He grew more dispondant and withdrawn, only concerning himself with selfish enjoyment. However the recent murder of his mother has caused him to rethink his self-serving behaviors. He's currently trying to mend his ways and do some good for a change.<br /> <br /> ===Personality=== <br /> <br /> '''Alignment:''' Chaotic Good (Unprincipled) ~ Chaotic good characters are strong individualists marked by a streak of kindness and benevolence. They believe in all the virtues of goodness and right, but they have little use for laws and regulations. They have no use for people who "try to push folk around and tell them what to do." Their own moral compass guides their actions, which, although good, may not always be in perfect agreement with the rest of society. <br /> <br /> Chaotic Good/Unprincipled Characters Will: <br /> <br /> 1. Have a high regard for life and freedom.<br /> <br /> 2. Keep his word of honor.<br /> <br /> 3. Lie and cheat if necessary (''especially to those of anarchist and evil alignments'').<br /> <br /> 4. Will not kill an unarmed foe (''but will take advantage of one''). <br /> <br /> 5. Help those in need. <br /> <br /> 6. Not use torture unless absolutely necessary. <br /> <br /> 7. Work with a group, especially if profitable. <br /> <br /> 8. Never harm an innocent.<br /> <br /> 9. Never kill for pleasure. <br /> <br /> 10.Dislike authority. <br /> <br /> 11.Never betray a friend.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Motivations:''' Although Qual seems like a carefree slacker, he really does care about the welfare of his family and their legacy. For the most part, Qual does his own thing, but the disappearance of his eldest brother, and subsequent departure of his father and death of his mother have all affected him, making him want to do more to help the Family.<br /> <br /> '''Outlook:''' Positive but kind of clueless about how to help. Feels a little bit insignificant and overwhelmed by the calamity and all that's happened because of it. <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Sexuality:''' Bisexual; but while Qual likes sex with both males and females, he would only ever take a female as a spouse.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Positive Personality Traits:''' Imaginative, easy going, resourceful, jovial, amusing- but not really on purpose, loyal when it counts<br /> <br /> '''Negative Personality Traits:''' Unmotivated and unreliable at times. Prefers to enjoy pleasurable activities rather than hard work, and tends to shirk his duties or pawn off unwanted tasks on others. Definetly not proactive.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Misc. Quirks:''' Qual has a few very particular and peculair superstitions. <br /> <br /> 1. He never tells loved ones "Goodbye". Instead he says things like "I'll see you soon" or "Talk with you later" to help prevent bad things from happening to them.<br /> <br /> 2. He also won't open his mouth around graves or in a graveyard, because he believes spirits can either possess you that way, or steal your life force from your gaping maw.<br /> <br /> 3. Lastly, he strongly insists that none of the potted plants that decorate the House's interior be thorn bearing foliage. Thorny plants growing inside the home are very unlucky. The only exception could ever be made for roses, so long as the roses' stems are cut before the flowers are brought into the house.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Strengths:''' Marksmanship, athletics<br /> <br /> '''Weaknesses:''' Prefers to stay firmly on land, traveling by sea or air makes Qual very nervous, not to mention motion sick. He doesn't even like to travel by chocobo, but does so when he has to.<br /> <br /> ===Affiliations=== <br /> <br /> '''Linkshells:''' The House Marchand<br /> [http://housemarchand.shivtr.com/]<br /> <br /> ===Interests===<br /> <br /> '''Likes:''' Brand new cutlery, old things (i.e. books, keys, jewlery, etc.), dirty jokes.<br /> <br /> '''Dislikes:''' People who are regularly late; even though he, himself, is late most of the time. Holes in his socks. Burnt toast.<br /> <br /> '''Favorite Foods:''' Roasted pumpkin seeds<br /> <br /> '''Favorite Drinks:''' Somnus-laced rosehip tea, honey ale<br /> <br /> '''Favorite colours:''' Cerulian, wine, stearling, moonlight <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Hobbies:''' Calligraphy, collecting rare curios<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Gallery===<br /> <br /> In development<br /> <br /> ===Playlist=== <br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/ziAdjphkjUE]<br /> 【UTAUカバー】月の羅針盤【松田っぽいよ】<br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/plGHborS2IM]<br /> {UTAU} matsudappoiyo Ur Style<br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/h4hDUGhb1Ac]<br /> Paprika Op <br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/rcfE4iTUbL0]<br /> The Crüxshadows - Quicksilver<br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/_iYWpcQBMco]<br /> Clan of Xymox - Troubled Soul<br /> <br /> <br /> [http://youtu.be/5DSg5K6K9nc]<br /> 【UTAUカバー】紡唄-つむぎうた-　再調整版【京音ロン】</div>
