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

::''Pronounciation:'' REM'yoo boo'VAY
::''Nickname(s):'' Remi, Puff (by Reina Townsend)

===Appearance===

The towering Duskwight Elezen has dark brown skin, not from a good majority of his race. He is thin but athletic, with a bit of swagger in his stride. He takes pride in his appearance, dressing in ornate, fancy robes and tunics, favoring loose shirts and snug pants. Both his face and body are scarred, the most heavy of scarring on his back and chemical burns on his arms and chest which he tries to keep covered.

===Behavior===

Remi had good posture, a slight slouch in his stand, and moves with a cat-like grace. His expression is usually humoured and flirtatious. He has a mischievous streak, and is prone to acts of random pranks.

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

::* <b>Melee</b> - He is not one to get into fights, and when brought to this level of combat, he would run away.
::* <b>Ranged</b> - A bow does not fit easily in his hands, same with a gun. This is another style of combat he does not excel in.
::* <b>Magic</b> - A proper student of the magical arts, Remi is a specialist in arcanima. As an arcanist, he uses aether to turn the body in on itself and to rejuvenate it, depending on the situation. He knows little of the Sharlayan art of astrologium, but has drawn many similarities to arcanima based on the few texts he has found.

==Tendencies==
===Likes===
::* ''Red wine'' - Give him a gift of Imperial Red or most Gridanian vintages, and he'll be your best friend. Until it's gone.
::* ''Strong alcohol'' - Brandys, rums, whiskey, or anything that burns the throat on the way down.
::* ''Subtle perfumes'' - A light scent on another, from floral to earthy, really grabs his attention.

===Dislikes===
::* ''Limsan wine'' - He finds it weak with little flavor. Likens it to seawater.
::* ''Foul scents'' - Morbol, swamp, someone who hasn't bathed in a few days, and other such scents will make him turn in the other direction.

===Hobbies/Talents===
::* ''Reading''
::* ''Wine tasting''
::* ''Getting drunk''

===Other===
::* He is easily excited when it comes to learning about other people and cultures.
::* Tries to be suave, but total nerd.
::* While he does smoke and use recreational drugs, it's more of a social habit than anything else.

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

::''Pronounciation:'' rem'WAH boo'VAY
::''Nickname(s):'' Remi, Puff (by Reina Townsend)

===Appearance===

The towering Duskwight Elezen has dark brown skin, not from a good majority of his race. He is thin but athletic, with a bit of swagger in his stride. He takes pride in his appearance, dressing in ornate, fancy robes and tunics, favoring loose shirts and snug pants. Both his face and body are scarred, the most heavy of scarring on his back and chemical burns on his arms and chest which he tries to keep covered.

===Behavior===

Remi had good posture, a slight slouch in his stand, and moves with a cat-like grace. His expression is usually humoured and flirtatious. He has a mischievous streak, and is prone to acts of random pranks.

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

::* <b>Melee</b> - He is not one to get into fights, and when brought to this level of combat, he would run away.
::* <b>Ranged</b> - A bow does not fit easily in his hands, same with a gun. This is another style of combat he does not excel in.
::* <b>Magic</b> - A proper student of the magical arts, Remi is a specialist in arcanima. As an arcanist, he uses aether to turn the body in on itself and to rejuvenate it, depending on the situation. He knows little of the Sharlayan art of astrologium, but has drawn many similarities to arcanima based on the few texts he has found.

==Tendencies==
===Likes===
::* ''Red wine'' - Give him a gift of Imperial Red or most Gridanian vintages, and he'll be your best friend. Until it's gone.
::* ''Strong alcohol'' - Brandys, rums, whiskey, or anything that burns the throat on the way down.
::* ''Subtle perfumes'' - A light scent on another, from floral to earthy, really grabs his attention.

===Dislikes===
::* ''Limsan wine'' - He finds it weak with little flavor. Likens it to seawater.
::* ''Foul scents'' - Morbol, swamp, someone who hasn't bathed in a few days, and other such scents will make him turn in the other direction.

===Hobbies/Talents===
::* ''Reading''
::* ''Wine tasting''
::* ''Getting drunk''

===Other===
::* He is easily excited when it comes to learning about other people and cultures.
::* Tries to be suave, but total nerd.
::* While he does smoke and use recreational drugs, it's more of a social habit than anything else.

==Character==
'''Syrress Detilderan''' is a Midlander Hyur from Gridania. She spends most of her free time hosting and giving religious discussions at Apkallu Falls in Old Gridania. She currently claims residence in the Ul'dah residential quarters at the Phoenix Rose, offering her healing skills to the Free Company, while also offering verbal and religious counsel to those in need.
===General===
'''Current name:''' Syrress Detilderan

'''Nicknames:''' Syr

'''Server:''' Balmung

'''Classes/Jobs:''' Conjurer, Arcanist, White Mage, Scholar

'''Current Occupation:''' Healer and spiritual counsel.

===Appearance===
'''Height''' 5 fulmes 6 ilms ((found through [http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/62834-Race-Heights this]))

'''Skin:''' Fair skinned

'''Hair:''' Blonde, shoulder length hair, neatly kept

'''Tattoos:''' None

'''Scars:''' 2 ilm scar running along her right kneecap

'''Noticeable Features:''' Small mole on the right side of her chin

===Personality===
Syrress is a compassionate individual, with a strong will and equally strong desire to help those in need. She is generally very approachable, always greeting strangers and friends alike with a warm smile and pleasant demeanor. Despite her strong beliefs in the divine Twelve, she is very open and accepting of most, despite their sharing her faith and ideals, regardless of what they might be. She does have a tendency to shy up when in the company of large groups, retreating to silence, though listening intently to all around her.

==Combat==

'''Melee:''' Syrress has no formal training in physical combatives, knowing little more than how to swing her stave should the need arise. There was a time in her past where she had hoped to learn the use of sword and shield, though those desires faded away, along with the one whom was to teach her.

'''Ranged:''' No formal training in the use of ranged devices, be it bow and arrow or any other form of projectile firing weapon. Her only experience with such a weapon resulted in an accidental discharge of a crudely crafted firearm one eve while staying at the inn in Limsa Lominsa. Damage to the wall was payed for in full.

'''Magic:''' Syrress has a strong affinity for white magic and aether manipulation pertaining to arcanic magic and healing. She had studied the art of conjureing since her 7th name day in Gridania, and continued to do on a daily basis until her eighteenth name day, though to this day she frequently makes return trips to her home in Gridania to seek the wisdom and counsel of E-Sumi-Yan, head of the Conjurer's Guild, when ever the chance presents itself. She began her scholarly studies shortly after her twentieth name day, and continues to hone and practices her skills in this art to this day.

==Tendencies==

===Likes===
::* Books
::* Religious texts and scriptures
::* Walking or using her chocobo for travel, not caring for traveling via aetheryte, unless it is needed

::* Long chats in beautiful places
::* Learning things that are new or unknown to her, craving knowledge of the unknown

===Dislikes===
::* The Garlean Empire

::* Negative people
::* Failure

===Hobbies/Talents===
::* When time permits, Syrress enjoys relaxing within the Twelveswood, fishing pole in hand.
::* Though no expert in the culinary arts, she is versed in cooking and preparing simple meals.
::* Writing, having composed many journals covering a wide array of topics, to include her travels, personal stories, and knowledge of new things learned.

===Fears===
::* Failing those she cares for
::* Again, anything possessing more than six legs
::* The thought of dying old and alone disturbs her greatly, despite having developed close bonds with others through out her life

===Flaws===
::* Due to the loss of her first and only love in the Calamity, Syrress has never fully accepted her lovers death, making it next to impossible for her to form any sort of meaningful relationship with another beyond the bond of friendship to date
::* Has a hard time admitting when she is wrong, convinced that this be a seldom occurrence when pertaining to subjects and topics she feels rather well versed in
::* Despite her teachings and beliefs, Syrress sometimes grows envious of others whom have a significant other in their life, wishing that her own was still here with her
::* When Syrress sets her mind to something, she can be very difficult to persuade away from the task at hand, sometimes resulting in the trait being a personal flaw

==Relationships==

===Family===
'''Mother:''' Unknown

'''Father:''' Unknown

'''Siblings:''' Unknown
===Friends===
'''Beasley:''' Her Chocobo, and most frequent companion for the past 5 cycles. When travelling outside the city-states, he is most likely to always be at her side

Ciel Wulfe

2015-04-13T06:30:30Z

Vaughn: /* PC Rumors */

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

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

=History=

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

=Personality=

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

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

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

=Relationships=
__NOTOC__

==Family==

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

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

==The Wulfegard==

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

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

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

==Everyone Else==

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

== Other Connections ==

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

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

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

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

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

=Rumors=
==Common Rumors==

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

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

==Moderate Rumors==

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

== PC Rumors ==

((Feel free to add!))

*"It's been a long while since I had the chance to speak with Miss Wulfe. I should see to doing something about that." [[Warren Castille]]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

*"Beautiful, elegant, with a voice like the sweetest honey. She was born for what she does." - [[Berrod Armstrong]]

*"Lady Ciel is one of the most skilled archers I've ever had the pleasure of working with. And a quick wit. I am most honored to know her." - [[Vaughn Antain]]

=IC Quotes and Trivia=

==IC Quotes==

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

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

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

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

==Trivia==

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

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

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

*She is a mezzo-soprano.

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

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

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

I am keeping this wiki light, except for rumors.

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

==Character==
===General===
::R'tashana is uncomfortable around most people. She is most at ease around Elezen and Lalafell. Roegadyn she is indifferent to. She is very uncomfortable around other Miqo'te. She can tolerate Hyuran females, but Hyuran males are a different matter. Depending on their appearance, she might slink away and try to remain unnoticed, flee in panic, or go into a catatonic state.
::R'tashana is usually found wandering the Pearl Lane district of Ul’dah, or near the chocobo porter. She occasionally makes her way up to The Quicksand when she has some spare coin, and occasionally is seen outside the city gates, most notably Scorpion Crossing or Black Brush Station. She gives the Coffer and Coffin a wide berth whenever heading out to Black Bush Station.

===Habits===

==History/Timeline==

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jancis has an alto voice range and no vocal training.

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

'''Scars:'''
*A keloid scar with a spider-like style with thin branches on her stomach and on her lower back; gotten from being impaled with a conjured stalagmite from [[Melfice Vainchelon]] in disguise.
*Right shoulder has small jagged scars from the claws and teeth of a possessed imp attack. Received while rescuing [[L'aenoh Tia]] from a dark blood mage.
*Three indented slots on her left side starting at her lower ribs which look like a giant fork stabbed her (which is what happened). Inflicted by [[Augustine Frost]] while under the influence of "Pink Primal" [[Memeli Meli]].

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

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

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

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Combat - Views/Behavior''</div>==
[[File:Mark Crilley Manga Shading.jpg|325px|right]]
*<b>Skills</b>
:*While not very smart in battle, Jancis does not fear it. She will go in and try to support everyone she's an ally with regardless of her own safety.
:*As a conjurer, Jancis is sensitive to the elements and through training has become more sensitive to the aether and magicks around people she's close to, giving her an edge on healing serious conditions at crucial times.
:*She's light of foot and quick to find a place she thinks will not hinder her allies.
:*She is trained in poisons and venoms, taking them herself in small doses to build up an immunity. She will use it as a rudimentary attack by throwing and misting as a distraction.
:*Trained with basics of a shield and staff. Usually does not have both at once and will two-hand whichever she has. Carries a wand and has natural items on her person at all times to form conjuration.

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

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Tendencies''</div>==

:*Jancis grew up mostly on her own out in the wild of the Shroud. Her habits and words do not follow current culture 100%; she will use odd terms and not understand idioms.
:*Wearing pants her entire childhood, she compensates for typical 'style' by wearing leggings.
:*Apologizes constantly.
:*Tends to be hands-on with people, touching their arm or shoulder, and does not understand the concept of personal space.

Once recovered from his life-long ordeal, they confessed their feelings for one another and were to be wed. Upon asking, she refers to memories of him as "very warm". After doing her best to follow his endeavors, she realized his love for adventure is what truly made him happy.

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

Becoming trusted friends, the two travel together often and share studies. Cici is like family to Jancis and is her first source of comfort and will typically try to follow her around despite the city politics and protocol. Though Jancis fails to understand much of the subtle work Cici does, she still will speak up about the shadow sides of it. Is usually left in the dark on her "sister's" real activities, but trusts the intention and meaning behind the secrets. To others Jancis will refer to her as "Lady Crofte" but personally will call her "CiCi".<br/>

Continues to do the best for this "hunter" as far as dealing with his wounds and problems from his past. Jancis now cooks a particular skillet bread specifically avoiding baking for his sake. Also is semi-protective of the man and will put up with most anything for his sake. Lost his left eye. Half of his right ear is missing. Mark on his back.

Jancis was really taken from his care and concern over Cici's exhaustion, offering to walk them back to the city and giving up all his pay for a room at the inn. Jancis continues to blunder in their friendship by dishonoring the man with her attempts to repay him. She continues to watch and visit the man, particularly after a strange display of mannerisms from the man. Has violet eyes and multiple scars around them. Has a rosewood crane he carved. She's taken to calling him "Oscare", less he get upset, but will call him "Sir Oscare" or "Sir Iono" if referring to him.<br>

Despite Tasa's brash demeanor, she is a wise woman with a lot of heart and patience for the less experienced and has earned quite a bit of Jancis' respect. She is technically the warrior's indentured servant as she pays back a debt and is bidden to comply with any requests Tasa makes, though the lady does not enforce it. She will always refer to her as "Lady Tasa." Believed dead.<br>

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Background''</div>==

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

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

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

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

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

==<div style="background: #BEBEBE; padding: 0.5em;">''Current Events / Achievements''</div>==
Jancis is a private in the Maelstrom, working as a medic. Her primary role is to travel around the island and assist the local settled pirates and families with ailments and other basic needs. She will typically be talked into helping out with manual labor chores.
*<b>Sisterhood</b>: Jancis continues to attempt to follow Lady Crofte around to help her with her city work, especially after the collar ordeal.
:*[[http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=8325]]Considering their long times apart, Jancis has taken to writing the knight about meetings and thoughts.
:*Noticing before her mission to Gridania that the knight is spending more time in Limsa, she overhears some work about following up on a man named Nero and hiring [[Fio Arasgain]] to assist in the matter.
::*Jancis is very confused after Fio's behavior to another miqo'te she does not know the name of, particular when she tried to move in and support Fio against the creepy man.
:*[[Otto Vann]] has asked about [[Natalie Mcbeef]], which Jancis told her what little she knew of the encounter in Limsa, but failed to get the lady knight's attention to tell her of his inquiry.
::*After offering, Jancis looks for Cici to find out more about the problem. Both talk about it, learning that Master Vann has turned down an offer from Lady McBeef to get involved.
::*While following a lead about some certain confiscated cargo, Jancis makes a very violent run-in with McBeef and her associates only one recognized is Cici ([[Jana Ridah]], [[Askier Mergrey]], [[Delial Grimsong]], [[Brynhilde Wulf]]) looking to gain information on a man named [[Nero Lazarov]]. Jancis received many lacerations from bomb explosions and being attacked by the two arcanists directly. Jancis is going to confront Cici about this assault and find out who, in fact, attacked her.
*<b>His name is Z'enath</b>:While travelling back to Gridania, Jancis was confronted by a swordsman with red eyes. His eagerness to speak to her and find out who she was after a simple "hello" blossomed into reuniting with one of the first people Jancis assisted after her isolation in the Shroud. [[Z'enath Vashyr]] nearly lost his eye in preventing a drunken scuffle between two other Wood Wailers that she was able to heal and restore in time. Continuing their correspondence, the two piece together their memories and trade shows of gratitude to one another.
:*After meeting, Jancis offers to assist Z'enath in a job he took on from a group of ruffian bandits that were laying waste to small hovels. Though she acts as little more than bait to the bandits, she catches a glimpse of the paladin's abilities and control over conjuration aether. The two rest in Quarrymill overnight as Wood Wailers handle the mess the bandits left behind. Returning to Gridania, Jancis proves she still knows how to climb a tree by... climbing a tree.
:*Called away once word that [[L'aenoh Tia]] was found abruptly, Jancis reunites with Z'enath after their hasty departure and both agree to meet up in the Mist of Limsa. The paladin honors her with a hand painted map of Eorzea.
:*Two train together randomly for both physical and mental prowess.
:*Jancis was moved as the knight appeared at the doorstep of her inn room in Coerthas as she went on a sojourn to recover a rare cave fungus. Insisting he help her on the mission, the two survive some wild beasts and, while recovering, term one another as friend and true ally.
*<b>Under the Coral Sea</b>: With most of the inner turmoil in the company settled, Jancis still strives to show goodwill and assist the others in their endeavors (outside of the brawling most of them seem fond of).
:*Reinette's offer at the pilgrimage to Nald'thal to pray together.
:*After following along with another one of [[Memeli Meli]] pranks, many members are sent on a while goose chase for a riddling pantry thief. While "rewarding" Jancis, Meli's kiss leaves an enchantment that makes the conjurer obsess with the lalafel and her wishes.
::*From the serious insistent urging of [[Jezune Garinthe]], Jancis shakes off the spell and is left confused as to what happened.
::*Later on, many others get entranced by Meli's trick and the company is forced to physically fight them to break the enchantment. Memeli gets grounded for her dangerous tricks.
:*Tausen's cooking. Jancis has taken up baking lately. This now seems like a pitiful venture, after L'aenoh's comment about never eating baked foods again. Jancis now makes everything in a skillet or stovetop/campfire.
:*L'aenoh's confusion over his own personal matters and feelings.
::*Jancis is currently following any leads she can find regarding the struggle and kidnapping of his man which has led her to Gridania. Following her Guildmaster's urgings that the elements speak of a disturbance in the Central Shroud along with fellow company members [[Tausenadel Geispyrsyn]], [[Q'nagali Yehn]], [[Guillaume Rigolant]], and [[Hnaba Jinjahl]]. As Hnaba leaves to search other leads, the other four find Hnaba at the place of the disturbance alone; a house covered in blood with an obvious place of capture with other such horrors of gore. Confronting the miqo'te, Hnaba slips down a secret passage in the floor which the other give chase on.
::*The group finally catch up to Hnaba in a defiled spire, surrounded by imp-like creatures that cry out thankfully in men's voices when slain. The fight proves difficult, knocking out Q'nagali and Guillaume from severe injuries, but eventually the remaining Coral manage to subdue the insane woman.
::*After much probing and being forced to a point to batter Hnaba with her shield, L'aenoh is found still clinging to life in a cell. Jancis' is particularly troubled by another corpse that is found in the search that was dressed up in L'aenoh's clothes but was burnt to death. The only way she could tell it was not the miqo'te was his eyepatch was on the wrong side.
::*Recovering and returning to the Padjal E-Sumi-Yan, Hnaba is handed over to the Wood Wailers and the rest of the company's wounds are treated by the conjurers. The same evening, L'aenoh is found by Staefrue wandering south back towards La Noscea. Paniced, Jancis give chase on foot to the wounded man. Unable to deny his tortured request the three travel to their house, the Still Shore, aggravating Jancis' wounds. Having to backtrack to Gridania and other locations, Jancis continues to delay her own healing and recovery.
::*Making a grave error in trying to heal L'aenoh further, Jancis resolves to find what Hnaba poisoned the man with and try it herself so she can duplicate the effects and find a potential treatment for it instead of the trial and error on someone else.
::*Getting help from [[Chuchukepa Hohokepa]], Jancis finds out the main ingredient is somnus. Going to Ul'dah, she looks for a means to treat the withdrawal. L'aenoh also asks her personally to find something to deal with his shakes, be it from forcing the information from Hnaba or other means. Finding the notes of an late alchemist, Jancis goes to reproduce the detoxification serum in hopes it will help the hunter's pains.
::*Cici ends up helping Jancis with the main need of somnus through a mysterious "shadow knight" [[C'kayah Tia]]. Jancis is honored for the reason the man decided to help, as if he did not assist in the course of love, he would dishonor his guardian deity. The other ingredients are procured and the serum is ready for one final trial.
*<b>Os-Care-of-a-friend</b>: After seeing Oscare freeze up and have a panic attack in the Quicksand, Jancis continues to try to check in on the highlander to understand what has caused this confident man to act so.
:*After the Grindstone contest where Oscare lost control and tried to kill Hornet, Jancis was charged with caring for the man the night after. Able to visit him at the Agents' bar briefly, Jancis noticed the scarring around his eyes and the color of his eyes a startling violet. Her trust in the man dwindles as he continues to fail controlling himself.
:*Oscare's comments over losing his memory with the Warrior Stone and his current mannerisms are recalling memories of another's actions and behavior, only to conflict Jancis all the more.
:*Ran off crying "I'm sorry." Repeatedly. Jancis has written the Iono family, hoping they have some kind of recourse to comforting the hunter.
:*Attempting to get others to assist in the troubles of the highlander, Jancis contacts Oscare's family for advice, the returning message is from Oscare himself in a very warm and confident letter asking to meet up with her. Now recovering from a company ordeal, she seeks out the hunter.
:*Meeting with him again, Jancis receives a beautiful rosewood crane figurine Oscare carved himself.
*<b>You Otto Know</b>: Jancis continues to run into the artist "by chance" and ends up having strange and endearing conversations with. The man's lifestyle is confusing for the conjurer, but she does what she can to help this, overall, good-natured highlander.
:*Jancis is a part-time advisor for the man, trying as she might to make it more as a friendly favor than a paid service.
:*Not finding gil to be overly valuable herself, Jancis continues to turn down the abundance of wealth Otto offers her.
::*In lieu of monetary payment, Otto has gifted her a workspace consisting of a table, chairs, and some tools. He handmade a wardrobe from walnut and other Glade-natural wood and stocked it with a dress and other garments (she uses it for more storage like a pantry as well), and a quilted bed-like fur rug. Many plants as well.
:*In connection with the Sultansworn, Otto asks for Jancis' knowledge and connections with [[Coatleque Crofte]].
:*In a very kind gesture, Jancis has accepted his help in searching for her fiance, [[Alveo Soulseeker]], who hasn't been heard from in three months. Working with Otto's right-hand, [[Ridley Silverlake]] returns with news that Alveo's group was slain and the man is missing in action. She also provides other records of Alveo's activities, proving he has been moving and working beyond need to be away.
:*Though uninterested in the outskirts of Coerthas, Jancis comes to support Otto's fighting ring in comforting fighters and assisting with wounds.
:*Supplies Otto from time to time with a 'medicine' that consists of herbal concentrations of tea to assist the man in sleeping and keeping awake. The orbs are covered in chocolate and are almost more of a placebo as far as how potent the effects are.
*<b>Al-well that ends well</b>: After many trips North to find her beloved and assist him in his ordeals and endeavors, Jancis continued to find only traces left behind by the man. Contacting his other friends and mentors, whom had not heard of his ventures nor received word back from him, as well as sending multiple letters she was assisted in the end by another friend who confirmed Alveo was actively receiving her correspondence and was going on his own missions of his own accord. Though heartbroken, she learned to live with his decision and discontinued her trips North or holding out for contact; knowing his indecision before about a life of settling down and his refusal to put her into danger clearly trumped any importance she held on his heart previously.
<spoiler>
*Being brave and strong-headed in a rare occasion, Jancis lost her proper demeanor with Sir Filangieri which led to a complicated encounter with the two. Alveo finding out and taking it poorly, Jancis decided in order to "forgive herself" to take up a huge amount of debt to protect Alveo. Jancis was indebted to Lady Tasa.
:*Reuniting with Alveo by chance while working, he convinced her that they could "go home", but the soldier's true intentions were to goad the knight Sir Filangieri into a fight. After being humiliated in front of the others, Jancis was strained with thoughts of giving up on her beloved. The situation was more compounded by his additional apologies and a very intimate offer. Jancis' trust in Alveo has improved dramatically from the sailor's continued efforts to compromise with the stubborn knight.
*Key events including rejoining the Maelstrom, night of the Pumpkin Cafe opening, and Dhemgeim's nameday celebration have solidified Jancis' commitment to Alveo.
*In a show of loyalty and to give Alveo clarity, Jancis has entrusted him with her most precious possession: a silver charm bracelet, infant-sized, with a seashell-shaped charm bearing the engraving "L.F.".
*At Alveo's lack of concern and mix-up that he intended to take on a near suicidal job for a shady mercenary group, she struck him. Anytime this is brought up, Jancis feels very guilty.
*Alveo proposed on the 30th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon, after the Grindstone they traveled to the Sagoii Desert where the two had first realized how much they cared for one another. While Jancis did not grow up knowing such culture of marriage outside of fictional books, she is excited about the title and reacts to it, particularly from Alveo.
*With a surprising change, Alveo has gone North to assist his mentor in an emergency call. Cleaning out their home and resigning from his position with the Coral Sea and the Maelstrom.
*With little word of his departure, Jancis finds his mentor and learns he has no information on his departure nor had insight of it, much as he does not care for the woman.

=====<div style="margin: 0.5em; padding: 0em 1em;">Aged Events</div>=====
<spoiler>
*Uponing joining the Harbingers of Dawn company, Jancis got wrapped up in a personal condition of one of the soldiers. By chance missing the worst of his afflicted curse; she ended up trusting Alveo and his companion Rynn.
:*While mostly being forced to be a source of outsider support, Jancis continued to bring aid and deal with the awkward man with a gruff demeanor. She was there when Alveo defeated Illear, freeing himself, and found him to be much more than a cold husk.
*Taking it upon herself to understand more of the strained relationship of those in the Harbingers, Jancis came to be a specific support to the Primarch himself. Freed from his curse, Jancis was a part of the battle to save the Primarch and take down the Leviathan. In the aftermath Jancis has built up new confidence in herself, found an ally with Lady Tasa.
:*In the continued recovery of the Primarch, Jancis has a new admiration for the arcanist arts and a drive to study their techniques.
*Murder in Ul'dah: Upon hearing Sir Filangieri's distress about a potent murder in Ul'dah, Jancis has volunteered to serve as bait and assist the knight in pursuing the case. Sadly nothing came of the offer, resulting in more pain for the knight.
*A Bow and a Man: Jancis has gotten involved with a friend's contract to find a thief. Not knowing the ultimate plans, she knows the man has taken an important heirloom of Oscare's. With Alveo agreeing to assist, she has free reign to pursue the problem and help the tall hunter. After finding out the man who stole the bow is known to Oscare's family, the man was found in a hideout in the Shroud. Oscare and Alveo took on the group and recovered the heirloom, though Alveo does not remember the fight at all.
*Debt and Love: Jancis feels a need to repay Lady Tasa for her generosity and kindness. Convinced the warrior isn't actually pushing for reimbursement, she looks for other ways to be loyal and giving.
*:After Lady Tasa effectively "proposed" to Jancis, the conjurer feels that she's not obligated to help the warrior out of a gil contract and more to be kind in general. Also, Jancis encouraged her to talk to Cici about their relationship. Tasa took her up on the advice, effectively moving from romantic attraction to more platonic.
*Academy: After Professor Rurujua assisted the Harbinger's leader and offered to teach the group lessons, the conjurer has become very interested in learning more about aether in general.
*Adventures in the Coral Sea
:*In search for information on Chuchukepa's mother, Jancis agreed to go with others in the company pretending to be a trained slave girl. While failing to be one of the chosen bartered women, she did assist in distracting some of the armed guard while the slave trader was 'interrogated' for information. Moving to protect the delicate elezen Reinette, Jancis ends up slaying one of the men from the use of too much force whereas she expected to merely subdue the man. The operation was an overall success, freeing the other marketed people and giving the Maelstrom a new ship.
*<b>The Maelstrom Misunderstanding</b>: Looking to prove her worth and ease the conscious of her beloved, Jancis joined the Maelstrom as a medic. Unknown to her, this only caused her lover more worry and concern. Her current work has her going along the coastal towns assisting the locals with their ailments and concerns.
*<b>A Barto-loadmeo of Trouble</b>: Jancis keeps up a tentative relationship with the knight of late, unsure how to assist the man after hearing about his questioning loyalty with the Sultansword and departure.
:*The knight has been taking more trips to the Shroud.

== Character ==

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

=== General ===

== Combat ==

=== Ranged ===

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

=== Magic ===

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

=== Melee ===

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

As his lover, Vaughn has a deep admiration for Jaques, and offers the Duskwight his assistance freely. They are often seen together, though Vaughn does his best to keep his emotions in check for Jaques's benefit, as he understands the Duskwight's need for privacy.

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

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

:<font style="color:#4e9362" size="3">●</font>'''[[Clouse Sydonis]]:''' While the hyur was kind at first, Vaughn distrusted him while under the influence of a corrupted aether crystal. However, he still likes the man, and considers him a friend.

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

Still, she has said enough to pique his interest in trying to figure out what exactly she has planned. Which was probably part her plan all along...

== History/Timeline ==

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

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

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

Every companion at the Rose bears the same rose-shaped tattoo on the heel of their right foot, but are one of four different colors based on status. Those with the black rose are those who were not born to the brothel and are there to work off a debt of some sort. They are not allowed to partake in any sexual activity while indebted, and the Madame usually turns them out as soon as the debt is paid, so as not to "blacken the pool" of desired companions.

Second in the hierarchy are those with a green rose. These are slaves born into the brothel but found lacking in either attractiveness or demeanor. These are the people seen distributing the others with tea, food, and whatever else is needed, and do not partake in any of the events.

A red rose determines those who were born in the brothel and used as companions. This is the most common mark in the Desert Rose.

Finally, at the top of the hierarchy, are those with a purple rose. These companions have been deemed worthy to mate and create children, and are the highest in value, therefore, the most expensive. There are very few of these companions, usually about eight males (one for every race and sub-type) and twenty-four females. However, numbers fluctuate depending on if the Madame deems a child of a mated pair to exceed her high standards of attractiveness, demeanor, and pliability.

Each mark of those born into the brothel are determined and inked when the child becomes of age to work at fifteen years old.

==== <span style="color:#800080">What It Was To Be Family</span> ====

Vaughn was born the only child of '''Thalandria Velengrais''' and the first child of '''Ambroise Antain''', two of the Wildwood resident companions picked to be parents based off certain qualities each had. He was then handed off to a wet nurse so his mother could get back to her shape and work again. Still, Thalandria would sneak in at night to care for her child, wanting to know what it felt like to be part of a normal family.

When Thalandria was caught feeding her child, Madame Levvine took her to the "dungeon" and punished her for her insolence. She was whipped and had her mammary sacks removed so the incident could not happen again. They were replaced with a soft, pliable substance to maintain the shape and softness of real breasts, but she would never again be able to feed a child. After all, she was not meant for caring for children; she just needed to make them.

Ambroise, on the other hand, was encouraged to be Vaughn's role model and teach him what it was to be a companion. The lessons started when Vaughn was two years old. He learned to do the basic duties such as cleaning, serving tea, and aesthetics. Between showing at an early age to have a knack for beautiful color and pattern combinations, and his pale and soft complexion, Vaughn earned the nickname "Marthette", or "Little Lady".

Even though Ambroise followed every rule and was considered to be the most well-behaved companion, he did have a small rebellious streak. When Vaughn was three years old, he became the older brother to Ambroise's and '''Cosette Nâdiya''''s son, '''Holiander'''. This one transgression, as Cosette bore a red mark, had Madame Levvine castrate Ambroise and remove the purple mark on his heel, replacing it with a green one.

After witnessing such an event, three-year-old Vaughn did what he could to keep himself out of trouble. He did whatever he was told to do as soon as he was told to do it. Ambroise still trained him and Holiander, as was his duty.

Unlike Vaughn, Holiander was rambunctious and payed little attention to what was expected of him. This didn't become apparent until the boys were ten and seven, respectively. It was around this time when Holiander started showing signs of illness, which Madame Levvine called "proof of ill-breeding".

==== <span style="color:#800080">Holiander</span> ====

Vaughn did everything he could to keep his little brother out of the Madame's sights. Though it became easier when Holiander fell ill, it just made Vaughn even more worried for him. By the time he was nine, Holiander had a difficult time breathing. By ten, he couldn't walk.

The years seemed to degrade him more and more, until he was completely bedridden with constant fevers by the time he was fourteen. His skin and hair blanched to stark whiteness, and his usually bright aqua eyes were a pale shade of blue.

[[File:Holiander.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Holiander Antain]]Vaughn, now seventeen, grew into a beautiful young man. In contrast to his half-brother, he had shining golden hair and brilliant green eyes. Though he had a fair complexion, it shone with a subtle golden glow. These qualities had Madame Levvine give him the purple mark, making him take the place of his once-beloved father.

However, he still couldn't leave Holiander to his fate. Vaughn resorted to stealing the jewelry in Madame Levvine's private quarters whenever he was invited back there for recreation. Any gift that he was given by a patron was just as quickly turned into the markets for gil. Even his best friend of the Rose, Madame Levvine's own daughter '''Sasha Levvine''', helped with collecting valuables to sell during monthly trips to market. Everything Vaughn could save was spent on concoctions from the alchemists to try and heal Holiander.

For a while, it didn't seem to work. Holiander became delusional and saw those around him as demons trying to take his life. Except for Vaughn. He saw his older brother as the one guardian angel he could trust, and would only eat or drink if it came from Vaughn, or "Aulucien" ("Golden Light") as Holiander called him.

Holiander started to recover eight months into his treatments, as Vaughn became able to discern what his illness actually was. It took an additional two months after that before the fevers would subside and Holiander could think once again. Unable to remember his name, he started to call himself "Alaire". Vaughn corrected him on multiple occasions, but Holiander didn't like the way it sounded. Instead, to satisfy his brother, he decided to go by "Holi" as it sounded happier.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A Short Engagement</span> ====

In order to bring gilflow to a mostly underground business, weekly trips into the markets were a necessity. Two companions, a male and a female, were sent with various pieces of jewelry, clothing, and other items unneeded in the brothel for trade. Each companion took with them one of the slaves with the black mark as a retainer.

Being the most beautiful male, Vaughn often made the trades. He insisted Holi should be his retainer, keeping him out of the brothel for as long as possible. It also gave him a chance to be just a person out with family, which made the brothers' bond even stronger. This arrangement went well for a few years, until Vaughn started noticing one of the other vendors.

'''Jerrah Garalad''' sold many varieties of fish her and her family caught in the small village of Crescent Cove. She had beautiful, sun-kissed brown skin and dyed parts of her dark hair red. What drew him to her the most were her brilliant blue eyes. They sparkled when she laughed, and she laughed often. She became his one glimmer of hope for a normal life, and they were soon engaged.

She promised Vaughn that he and Holi would never become someone else's property once they were married. Still, she was a poor woman and such an arrangement would take time. Soon after their engagement, however, Madame Levvine kept both Vaughn and Holi under lock and key, and told Jerrah Vaughn abandoned her. Since then, Madame Levvine had Vaughn take Sasha with him whenever he went into the markets to deter any more of his "nonsense".

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">Life as a Pirate</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">Captain von Kanton</span> ====

A few months passed since Vaughn and Jerrah parted ways, and it was during a scheduled market day when he and Sasha were approached by '''Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton'''. He stood a couple ilms taller than Vaughn, making him an intimidating hyur to say the least. His short dark hair, sharp brown eyes, and tanned sea-kissed skin only added to the allure Vaughn felt. He was dark and mysterious, yet frightening, and the Elezen had a hard time pretending to be disappointed when Ateryu bought him from the brothel to be his personal slave upon his ship, the '''Sea Nymph'''. [[File:Ateryu1.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton]]

Ateryu was a superstitious man, and having Vaughn aboard sated the crew's need to have a woman tend to their needs without having one, as they were "bad luck". In order to keep the Elezen in an amorous mood to be able to take the crew at their whim, Ateryu also stocked himself with ''aetheri'', a highly addictive and expensive drug the Rose often used for the same purpose.

The Captain kept Vaughn on a tight leash, only allowing him to do or say things Ateryu allowed. He was not allowed to have a thought of his own, and the slightest hint of one caused Ateryu to beat it out of him until he was once again the submissive slave Ateryu purchased.

==== <span style="color:#800080">The First Year</span> ====

It didn't take long for Vaughn to learn his place in Ateryu's crew. The first few months consisted of bending to the depravity of the crew, nothing much different than what he was already used to from the Rose.

By the seventh month, however, Ateryu became more possessive of his investment. He no longer allowed the crew to touch the Elezen, and outright killed those who even whispered his name. Vaughn spent most of his time locked in the Captain's quarters, expected to be ready whenever Ateryu wanted. Which was often.

Over the next few months, Ateryu started to talk to Vaughn. His tone softened around him, and he became more tender with him. Ateryu confessed love to him, branding him with the symbol of his crew on the inside of his left hip. However, around his crew, Ateryu still humiliated him with public lashings and strangulation, though he killed any of the crew who tried to join in on the "fun".

This was also the time when Ateryu charged Vaughn with a mission.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Introduction to Loss</span> ====

The Captain was an arrogant man, and in his arrogance he believed he could control the primal Leviathan. To do this, he required a book that was in the possession of a Gridanian noblewoman. This noblewoman, '''Silveaux De'leann''', married Holi shortly before Ateryu purchased Vaughn. So the solution was simple; Ateryu would send a message to the De'leann estate claiming Vaughn wished to see his brother at sea. Ateryu would then invade her estate, kill everyone inside and take her book, while Vaughn would kill Holi to prevent any risk of retribution.

Vaughn took the plan hard. While he didn't understand the reasoning behind summoning the primal, he understood killing the person he worked so hard to keep alive was unnecessary. He loved his brother, but he loved Ateryu and lived only to please him.

With gritted teeth, Vaughn did as his lover asked. He met with Holi on the Sea of Jade, sneaking aboard to take him quickly and to not have to look at the horrible deed. However, Holi turned to face him, pleaded against Ateryu's wishes, and offered Vaughn freedom through himself and his wife. When Vaughn reluctantly refused, Holi surrendered, writing a letter to his dear Silveaux with a lock of his hair enclosed in an envelope. After beheading his brother, Vaughn kept the letter and lock with him, praying for his brother's forgiveness.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Enough is Enough</span> ====

Ten cycles passed with the Captain, every cycle seeming worse than the last. Vaughn was tortured, tormented, forced to watch his loved ones die (some by his own hand), and look on helplessly as the Captain murdered his way around Eorzea.

The time came when Vaughn finally mustered the courage to stand up for himself. The Captain was sleeping in his bed, exhausted from the day of village slaughter followed by his forceful ways with him. He slowly crawled out of their bed to the nightstand where Ateryu kept his rusty, dull dagger. After stifling his own tears, Vaughn plunged the dagger straight through his throat.

The event left him numb for months. He took the helm of the ship, pretending the Captain was just ill so as not to rouse suspicion. The crew believed him, or they just didn't care as long as they got their share of the plunder. When they made port eight months after the Captain passed, Vaughn sneaked away and hasn't looked back.

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">The Free Slave</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">One Step Forward, Three Steps Back</span> ====

Over the next year, he took up formal archery training out of respect for his kin, training in Gridania and earning rank within the God's Bow. He took orders well, earning the respect of his comrades, but also regressing to his former self. He became a shell of what he tried to become, open to nothing but the commands of the General of the God's Bow.

During that same year, he visited his former home of Ul'dah. There, he learned of the poor folk that couldn't reclaim their homes near Vesper Bay relocated to Crescent Cove, Jerrah among them with a ten-year-old boy. Out of curiosity, he traveled to the Cove and met '''Richtor Garalad'''. He recognized instantly that the boy had Thalandria's bright blue eyes, and was his son.

Vaughn attempted to speak with Jerrah about his suspicions, but she pushed him away as quickly as she saw him. She recognized Vaughn as the reason she lost her family in Vesper Bay and refused to let him see Richtor. However, this did not deter him, and the two managed to meet and spend time together in the late hours and whenever Jerrah went to market to sell her wares. Vaughn taught Rictor to use the bow in the Gridanian style, as it was taught to him. The two grew close very quickly, but when Jerrah found out about them spending time together behind her back, she attacked Vaughn and warned him to never return.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Facets of Eorzea</span> ====

Vaughn then left Thanalan and the Black Shroud behind, finding little joy in anything there. He made his way to Limsa Lominsa, and enlisted with the Maelstrom to use his skill as a Bowman against the pirates he once fought alongside. Again, he rose quickly in rank, blindly following orders with ability and precision. Still, it wasn't enough to keep him out of trouble there as well. '''Admiral [[Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn]]''' learned of Vaughn's affiliation with pirates and discharged him, though honorably as he did nothing against Limsa or her armada.

This was still enough to send Vaughn into another spiral of self-doubt and wandering. While sitting on the docks, watching the ships sail into the sunset, he was approached by three miqo'tes: '''[[R'shesha Otharn]]''', '''[[Nihka Mioni]]''', and '''[[R'khen Tia]]'''. They talked until the early morning hours, Vaughn making them smoked salmon right on the pier. After, R'shesha approached him about joining her in trying to convince her Free Company, the '''Facets of Eorzea''', that the Garlean threat was right on their doorstep and they should be idle no longer.

Vaughn spoke with their then leader, '''[[Clouse Sydonis]]''', who seemed to admire Vaughn's spirit and desire to help wherever it was needed. Clouse enlisted him in the Company, and Vaughn had a new home and purpose once again.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Corruption and Hope</span> ====

The first mission Clouse sent Vaughn on was an ongoing investigation on '''[[Ashe En'vale]]''', a chaotic and charismatic red-haired hyur. Along with fellow Facets '''[[Chiane N'ardente]]''', '''[[Jael Laksha]]''', and R'shesha, Vaughn tracked and conversed with Ashe, eventually "joining" his side so he could report information back to Clouse and the rest of the Facets. It backfired, and after getting another Facet involved, '''[[An'nai Tir'Atha]]''', Vaughn was in a position he did not want to be in. Ashe imbedded a corrupted crystal into Vaughn's chest, allowing the Elezen access to a hidden power inside him. A power he could not easily control.

[[File:Vaughn Jaques.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Vaughn with Jaques]]The crystal opened his mind to blind hatred and rage, while also giving him the power to create fire from nothing. However, instead of being afraid, Vaughn took it as an opportunity to strengthen himself while he used the power to help others, with the intention of also using it against Ashe. A newfound boldness overtook the meek Wildwood, and he was finally able to tell fellow Facet '''[[Jaques Guillaume]]''' exactly how he felt about him. After a few more encounters, and actions that turned away brother-like An'nai, the two started dating.

It was then that Vaughn started to feel not quite himself. His body temperature continued to rise, though he never felt sick. He neither ate nor slept, and Jaques convinced Vaughn to give up the crystal, or lose himself to it. Vaughn agreed, and they went to Nihka for help, as she had been studying the corrupted crystals and knew best how to rid oneself of it's influence. After fighting through the ritual to not only keep the power but take in the countering aether, Vaughn was left weakened and nearly dead. However, both Jaques and Nihka watched over him until he was able to regain his strength and returned to being the shy, yet comfortable Elezen they knew and cared for.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A New Beginning</span> ====

After a few moons, and a falling out with the Facets, Vaughn and Jaques became much closer, to the point where one will rarely go anywhere without the other. The loss of touch with the aether around him made Vaughn want to try with a non-corrupted crystal to harness the power once again. With a bit of convincing, Jaques agreed to allow Vaughn to receive a wind crystal in the corrupted crystal's place.

The adjustment took a toll on them both, but through a few techniques Jaques taught him through his monk training, Vaughn was able to contain the power and shield his crystal from taking in random (and his own) aether. Currently, he is able to use the crystal to enhance his other combat skills, as well as new skills Jaques is helping him train in.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

'''Kale Aideron''', officially Ser Khaleed, is an Ul'dahn sipahi (or cavalryman) in service to Chairman Lolorito and the East Aldenard Trading Company. A native of Pearl Lane, Kale is a six year veteran of the Immortal Flames and a mercenary troop for a decade prior, and has done little else but deal with conflict throughout his entire life. An oft-times intense individual with strong convictions, Kale is very outspoken about how he thinks things should be, but is otherwise a mostly affable and outgoing man who enjoys facing Eorzea's challenges in the company of others. He is a loyal member of the Sword & Rose Order, bringing his own sense of stability and security to the Goblet-based free company.

<center>''"I just do my job. Nothin' more, nothin' less"''</center>

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

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

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

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

:'''Fashion:''' As an Ul'dahn, Kale can be seen wearing various kurtas and matching turbans, blending in with the citizenry of Ul'dah. His plain sense of dress means he may not be able to be identified from the crowd of commonfolk, which is more than ideal in his mind. Recently, however, Kale has been seen wearing the black and gold armour of an Immortal Flames hunter-scholar, a gift said to be provisioned to him by his liege, Chairman Lolorito. When off-duty, he tends wear a black open shirt and grey set of chausses, while wearing the armour set's thighboots.

<center>''"Please, tell us more 'bout 'ow much more bloody special you are than the rest of us...I insist"''</center>
:'''Voice:''' Slightly deep and only faintly hoarse, Kale may talk very quickly for some. This is quite noticeable with Kale's habit of arbitrarily amalgamating or crudely conjugating words and dropping entire letters in pronunciation of certain syllables. His accent puts his origins as someone from Pearl Lane, or alternatively as someone who has spent their time as a rank-and-file soldier for many summers.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

:*As a cavalryman, Kale is very frequently seen with his chocobo, Eskandar. He is known to ramble to Eskandar, and otherwise treat the bird as having human-like qualities.
:*Lone wolves are a particular dislike of Kale's, who values teamwork and group effort instead.
:*Kale as an aversion to thaumaturgy and its practitioners, seeing these particular types of mages as self-serving.
:*Kale will always order an ale to drink at any sort of alcohol-serving establishment. His favourite non-alcoholic drink is mint lassi, and he is a particular fan of dodo omelette.

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

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

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

== Character ==

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

=== General ===

'''Full Name:''' Vaughn Auréle Antain<br/>'''Nickname(s):''' Pretty Boy, Blondie<br/>'''Race:''' Wildwood Elezen<br/>'''Age:''' 35 (estimated)<br/>'''Occupation(s):''' Companion, pirate, archer, bard

=== Appearance ===

'''Skin:''' fair with a slight golden lustre, smooth as porcelain<br/>'''Hair:''' thick but silky, golden blonde in color<br/>'''Eyes:''' vibrant green<br/>'''Distinguishing Features:''' small tattoo on his right heel (a purple rose), small brand on his right hip (Blood Nymph pirate crew symbol), organic scarification on his left pec with that nipple pierced, usually dressed in fine silks

=== Behavior ===

'''Motivation:''' Helping those in need<br/>'''Temperament:''' Mostly calm, but becomes angry when a friend is threatened<br/>'''Fear(s):''' his own emotions, love<br/>'''Negative Trait(s):''' appears closed off, neurotic, can be a bit too blunt<br/>'''Sexuality:''' Pansexual

== Combat ==

=== Ranged ===

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

=== Magic ===

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

=== Melee ===

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

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

Still, she has said enough to pique his interest in trying to figure out what exactly she has planned. Which was probably part her plan all along...

== History/Timeline ==

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

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

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

Every companion at the Rose bears the same rose-shaped tattoo on the heel of their right foot, but are one of four different colors based on status. Those with the black rose are those who were not born to the brothel and are there to work off a debt of some sort. They are not allowed to partake in any sexual activity while indebted, and the Madame usually turns them out as soon as the debt is paid, so as not to "blacken the pool" of desired companions.

Second in the hierarchy are those with a green rose. These are slaves born into the brothel but found lacking in either attractiveness or demeanor. These are the people seen distributing the others with tea, food, and whatever else is needed, and do not partake in any of the events.

A red rose determines those who were born in the brothel and used as companions. This is the most common mark in the Desert Rose.

Finally, at the top of the hierarchy, are those with a purple rose. These companions have been deemed worthy to mate and create children, and are the highest in value, therefore, the most expensive. There are very few of these companions, usually about eight males (one for every race and sub-type) and twenty-four females. However, numbers fluctuate depending on if the Madame deems a child of a mated pair to exceed her high standards of attractiveness, demeanor, and pliability.

Each mark of those born into the brothel are determined and inked when the child becomes of age to work at fifteen years old.

==== <span style="color:#800080">What It Was To Be Family</span> ====

Vaughn was born the only child of '''Thalandria Velengrais''' and the first child of '''Ambroise Antain''', two of the Wildwood resident companions picked to be parents based off certain qualities each had. He was then handed off to a wet nurse so his mother could get back to her shape and work again. Still, Thalandria would sneak in at night to care for her child, wanting to know what it felt like to be part of a normal family.

When Thalandria was caught feeding her child, Madame Levvine took her to the "dungeon" and punished her for her insolence. She was whipped and had her mammary sacks removed so the incident could not happen again. They were replaced with a soft, pliable substance to maintain the shape and softness of real breasts, but she would never again be able to feed a child. After all, she was not meant for caring for children; she just needed to make them.

Ambroise, on the other hand, was encouraged to be Vaughn's role model and teach him what it was to be a companion. The lessons started when Vaughn was two years old. He learned to do the basic duties such as cleaning, serving tea, and aesthetics. Between showing at an early age to have a knack for beautiful color and pattern combinations, and his pale and soft complexion, Vaughn earned the nickname "Marthette", or "Little Lady".

Even though Ambroise followed every rule and was considered to be the most well-behaved companion, he did have a small rebellious streak. When Vaughn was three years old, he became the older brother to Ambroise's and '''Cosette Nâdiya''''s son, '''Holiander'''. This one transgression, as Cosette bore a red mark, had Madame Levvine castrate Ambroise and remove the purple mark on his heel, replacing it with a green one.

After witnessing such an event, three-year-old Vaughn did what he could to keep himself out of trouble. He did whatever he was told to do as soon as he was told to do it. Ambroise still trained him and Holiander, as was his duty.

Unlike Vaughn, Holiander was rambunctious and payed little attention to what was expected of him. This didn't become apparent until the boys were ten and seven, respectively. It was around this time when Holiander started showing signs of illness, which Madame Levvine called "proof of ill-breeding".

==== <span style="color:#800080">Holiander</span> ====

Vaughn did everything he could to keep his little brother out of the Madame's sights. Though it became easier when Holiander fell ill, it just made Vaughn even more worried for him. By the time he was nine, Holiander had a difficult time breathing. By ten, he couldn't walk.

The years seemed to degrade him more and more, until he was completely bedridden with constant fevers by the time he was fourteen. His skin and hair blanched to stark whiteness, and his usually bright aqua eyes were a pale shade of blue.

[[File:Holiander.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Holiander Antain]]Vaughn, now seventeen, grew into a beautiful young man. In contrast to his half-brother, he had shining golden hair and brilliant green eyes. Though he had a fair complexion, it shone with a subtle golden glow. These qualities had Madame Levvine give him the purple mark, making him take the place of his once-beloved father.

However, he still couldn't leave Holiander to his fate. Vaughn resorted to stealing the jewelry in Madame Levvine's private quarters whenever he was invited back there for recreation. Any gift that he was given by a patron was just as quickly turned into the markets for gil. Even his best friend of the Rose, Madame Levvine's own daughter '''Sasha Levvine''', helped with collecting valuables to sell during monthly trips to market. Everything Vaughn could save was spent on concoctions from the alchemists to try and heal Holiander.

For a while, it didn't seem to work. Holiander became delusional and saw those around him as demons trying to take his life. Except for Vaughn. He saw his older brother as the one guardian angel he could trust, and would only eat or drink if it came from Vaughn, or "Aulucien" ("Golden Light") as Holiander called him.

Holiander started to recover eight months into his treatments, as Vaughn became able to discern what his illness actually was. It took an additional two months after that before the fevers would subside and Holiander could think once again. Unable to remember his name, he started to call himself "Alaire". Vaughn corrected him on multiple occasions, but Holiander didn't like the way it sounded. Instead, to satisfy his brother, he decided to go by "Holi" as it sounded happier.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A Short Engagement</span> ====

In order to bring gilflow to a mostly underground business, weekly trips into the markets were a necessity. Two companions, a male and a female, were sent with various pieces of jewelry, clothing, and other items unneeded in the brothel for trade. Each companion took with them one of the slaves with the black mark as a retainer.

Being the most beautiful male, Vaughn often made the trades. He insisted Holi should be his retainer, keeping him out of the brothel for as long as possible. It also gave him a chance to be just a person out with family, which made the brothers' bond even stronger. This arrangement went well for a few years, until Vaughn started noticing one of the other vendors.

'''Jerrah Garalad''' sold many varieties of fish her and her family caught in the small village of Crescent Cove. She had beautiful, sun-kissed brown skin and dyed parts of her dark hair red. What drew him to her the most were her brilliant blue eyes. They sparkled when she laughed, and she laughed often. She became his one glimmer of hope for a normal life, and they were soon engaged.

She promised Vaughn that he and Holi would never become someone else's property once they were married. Still, she was a poor woman and such an arrangement would take time. Soon after their engagement, however, Madame Levvine kept both Vaughn and Holi under lock and key, and told Jerrah Vaughn abandoned her. Since then, Madame Levvine had Vaughn take Sasha with him whenever he went into the markets to deter any more of his "nonsense".

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">Life as a Pirate</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">Captain von Kanton</span> ====

A few months passed since Vaughn and Jerrah parted ways, and it was during a scheduled market day when he and Sasha were approached by '''Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton'''. He stood a couple ilms taller than Vaughn, making him an intimidating hyur to say the least. His short dark hair, sharp brown eyes, and tanned sea-kissed skin only added to the allure Vaughn felt. He was dark and mysterious, yet frightening, and the Elezen had a hard time pretending to be disappointed when Ateryu bought him from the brothel to be his personal slave upon his ship, the '''Sea Nymph'''. [[File:Ateryu1.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Captain Ateryu Mica von Kanton]]

Ateryu was a superstitious man, and having Vaughn aboard sated the crew's need to have a woman tend to their needs without having one, as they were "bad luck". In order to keep the Elezen in an amorous mood to be able to take the crew at their whim, Ateryu also stocked himself with ''aetheri'', a highly addictive and expensive drug the Rose often used for the same purpose.

The Captain kept Vaughn on a tight leash, only allowing him to do or say things Ateryu allowed. He was not allowed to have a thought of his own, and the slightest hint of one caused Ateryu to beat it out of him until he was once again the submissive slave Ateryu purchased.

==== <span style="color:#800080">The First Year</span> ====

It didn't take long for Vaughn to learn his place in Ateryu's crew. The first few months consisted of bending to the depravity of the crew, nothing much different than what he was already used to from the Rose.

By the seventh month, however, Ateryu became more possessive of his investment. He no longer allowed the crew to touch the Elezen, and outright killed those who even whispered his name. Vaughn spent most of his time locked in the Captain's quarters, expected to be ready whenever Ateryu wanted. Which was often.

Over the next few months, Ateryu started to talk to Vaughn. His tone softened around him, and he became more tender with him. Ateryu confessed love to him, branding him with the symbol of his crew on the inside of his left hip. However, around his crew, Ateryu still humiliated him with public lashings and strangulation, though he killed any of the crew who tried to join in on the "fun".

This was also the time when Ateryu charged Vaughn with a mission.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Introduction to Loss</span> ====

The Captain was an arrogant man, and in his arrogance he believed he could control the primal Leviathan. To do this, he required a book that was in the possession of a Gridanian noblewoman. This noblewoman, '''Silveaux De'leann''', married Holi shortly before Ateryu purchased Vaughn. So the solution was simple; Ateryu would send a message to the De'leann estate claiming Vaughn wished to see his brother at sea. Ateryu would then invade her estate, kill everyone inside and take her book, while Vaughn would kill Holi to prevent any risk of retribution.

Vaughn took the plan hard. While he didn't understand the reasoning behind summoning the primal, he understood killing the person he worked so hard to keep alive was unnecessary. He loved his brother, but he loved Ateryu and lived only to please him.

With gritted teeth, Vaughn did as his lover asked. He met with Holi on the Sea of Jade, sneaking aboard to take him quickly and to not have to look at the horrible deed. However, Holi turned to face him, pleaded against Ateryu's wishes, and offered Vaughn freedom through himself and his wife. When Vaughn reluctantly refused, Holi surrendered, writing a letter to his dear Silveaux with a lock of his hair enclosed in an envelope. After beheading his brother, Vaughn kept the letter and lock with him, praying for his brother's forgiveness.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Enough is Enough</span> ====

Ten cycles passed with the Captain, every cycle seeming worse than the last. Vaughn was tortured, tormented, forced to watch his loved ones die (some by his own hand), and look on helplessly as the Captain murdered his way around Eorzea.

The time came when Vaughn finally mustered the courage to stand up for himself. The Captain was sleeping in his bed, exhausted from the day of village slaughter followed by his forceful ways with him. He slowly crawled out of their bed to the nightstand where Ateryu kept his rusty, dull dagger. After stifling his own tears, Vaughn plunged the dagger straight through his throat.

The event left him numb for months. He took the helm of the ship, pretending the Captain was just ill so as not to rouse suspicion. The crew believed him, or they just didn't care as long as they got their share of the plunder. When they made port eight months after the Captain passed, Vaughn sneaked away and hasn't looked back.

=== <span style="color:#4b0082">The Free Slave</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#800080">One Step Forward, Three Steps Back</span> ====

Over the next year, he took up formal archery training out of respect for his kin, training in Gridania and earning rank within the God's Bow. He took orders well, earning the respect of his comrades, but also regressing to his former self. He became a shell of what he tried to become, open to nothing but the commands of the General of the God's Bow.

During that same year, he visited his former home of Ul'dah. There, he learned of the poor folk that couldn't reclaim their homes near Vesper Bay relocated to Crescent Cove, Jerrah among them with a ten-year-old boy. Out of curiosity, he traveled to the Cove and met '''Richtor Garalad'''. He recognized instantly that the boy had Thalandria's bright blue eyes, and was his son.

Vaughn attempted to speak with Jerrah about his suspicions, but she pushed him away as quickly as she saw him. She recognized Vaughn as the reason she lost her family in Vesper Bay and refused to let him see Richtor. However, this did not deter him, and the two managed to meet and spend time together in the late hours and whenever Jerrah went to market to sell her wares. Vaughn taught Rictor to use the bow in the Gridanian style, as it was taught to him. The two grew close very quickly, but when Jerrah found out about them spending time together behind her back, she attacked Vaughn and warned him to never return.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Facets of Eorzea</span> ====

Vaughn then left Thanalan and the Black Shroud behind, finding little joy in anything there. He made his way to Limsa Lominsa, and enlisted with the Maelstrom to use his skill as a Bowman against the pirates he once fought alongside. Again, he rose quickly in rank, blindly following orders with ability and precision. Still, it wasn't enough to keep him out of trouble there as well. '''Admiral [[Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn]]''' learned of Vaughn's affiliation with pirates and discharged him, though honorably as he did nothing against Limsa or her armada.

This was still enough to send Vaughn into another spiral of self-doubt and wandering. While sitting on the docks, watching the ships sail into the sunset, he was approached by three miqo'tes: '''[[R'shesha Otharn]]''', '''[[Nihka Mioni]]''', and '''[[R'khen Tia]]'''. They talked until the early morning hours, Vaughn making them smoked salmon right on the pier. After, R'shesha approached him about joining her in trying to convince her Free Company, the '''Facets of Eorzea''', that the Garlean threat was right on their doorstep and they should be idle no longer.

Vaughn spoke with their then leader, '''[[Clouse Sydonis]]''', who seemed to admire Vaughn's spirit and desire to help wherever it was needed. Clouse enlisted him in the Company, and Vaughn had a new home and purpose once again.

==== <span style="color:#800080">Corruption and Hope</span> ====

The first mission Clouse sent Vaughn on was an ongoing investigation on '''[[Ashe En'vale]]''', a chaotic and charismatic red-haired hyur. Along with fellow Facets '''[[Chiane N'ardente]]''', '''[[Jael Laksha]]''', and R'shesha, Vaughn tracked and conversed with Ashe, eventually "joining" his side so he could report information back to Clouse and the rest of the Facets. It backfired, and after getting another Facet involved, '''[[An'nai Tir'Atha]]''', Vaughn was in a position he did not want to be in. Ashe imbedded a corrupted crystal into Vaughn's chest, allowing the Elezen access to a hidden power inside him. A power he could not easily control.

[[File:Vaughn Jaques.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Vaughn with Jaques]]The crystal opened his mind to blind hatred and rage, while also giving him the power to create fire from nothing. However, instead of being afraid, Vaughn took it as an opportunity to strengthen himself while he used the power to help others, with the intention of also using it against Ashe. A newfound boldness overtook the meek Wildwood, and he was finally able to tell fellow Facet '''[[Jaques Guillaume]]''' exactly how he felt about him. After a few more encounters, and actions that turned away brother-like An'nai, the two started dating.

It was then that Vaughn started to feel not quite himself. His body temperature continued to rise, though he never felt sick. He neither ate nor slept, and Jaques convinced Vaughn to give up the crystal, or lose himself to it. Vaughn agreed, and they went to Nihka for help, as she had been studying the corrupted crystals and knew best how to rid oneself of it's influence. After fighting through the ritual to not only keep the power but take in the countering aether, Vaughn was left weakened and nearly dead. However, both Jaques and Nihka watched over him until he was able to regain his strength and returned to being the shy, yet comfortable Elezen they knew and cared for.

==== <span style="color:#800080">A New Beginning</span> ====

After a few moons, and a falling out with the Facets, Vaughn and Jaques became much closer, to the point where one will rarely go anywhere without the other. The loss of touch with the aether around him made Vaughn want to try with a non-corrupted crystal to harness the power once again. With a bit of convincing, Jaques agreed to allow Vaughn to receive a wind crystal in the corrupted crystal's place.

The adjustment took a toll on them both, but through a few techniques Jaques taught him through his monk training, Vaughn was able to contain the power and shield his crystal from taking in random (and his own) aether. Currently, he is able to use the crystal to enhance his other combat skills, as well as new skills Jaques is helping him train in.
