General Information
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
A distant cousin of Lord Lolorito and the child of wealthy merchants, Zozola Zola has lived a comfortable life until about a turn ago. When her parents cut her off financially, she sought out her own path in life - a freedom she has since embraced in spite of her family's many failed attempts to control her. Zozola is a performer and an adventurer, as well as a Director for Legatum Mysteria.

Appearance
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Zozola is quite short, even for a lalafell, standing at a solid 2'10". She is also quite chubby. Her Ul'dahn brown skin is soft and supple, and there is a constant blush to her cheeks. Her long wavy hair is a pale mint green in color, with pink highlights on the tips. She usually wears her hair in braids and ponytails. She has striking lilac dunesfolk eyes.

She is often seen draped in pastel colors or jewel tones. Despite her soft cute appearance and aesthetic, her body language often betrays her true salty nature.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Mannerisms</p>
Zozola generally approaches all social situations with a polite demeanor. This often proves to be a bit of a falsehood in uncomfortable social situations however, wherein she remains polite but her body language betrays her discomfort entirely. She is not very good at making new friends, though once she is close to someone she becomes incredibly comfortable with them.

Zozola loves to eat, drink, and be merry with those she is most comfortable with. Her flirtaciousness toward those she is especially close to is omnipresent as she loves to get a rise out of those she would be intimate with, but when they flirt back she tends to get incredibly flustered.

She is rather insecure, and she tends to take it personally when she is overlooked, rejected, or condescended to. When such a thing happens, the mask of politeness dissolves and her true bitterness is plainly visible to the world.


<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Philosophy & Ideals</p>
Zozola believes in the autonomy of the individual above all else. This idealized freedom is everpresent in her life, bordering on hedonism at times. This concept expands to a romantic ideal as well - believing in the ability to love multiple people at once...but also in the responsibility that comes with it.

She cares deeply for her friends, especially those who have seen her at her lowest. She can be rather selfish, but if it is for her closest friends, she will do just about anything to protect them.

She wishes to define her own fate, even if it means grasping it from the hands of the Twelve themselves.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Personality Tidbits</p>
<ul style="width: 100%; list-style: none; margin-left: 0; margin-top: 1.2em;">
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">While attracted to ''some'' men, Zozola is typically uncomfortable and annoyed by them - with few exceptions. She largely prefers the company of women, in both romantic and platonic contexts.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">She despises being condescended to, ignored, and infantilized because of her size above most things. Look down on her at your own peril. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">Despite being privileged in her youth, it takes very little to make Zo feel satisfied with her circumstances. She sees good food, good drink, a comfortable place to rest your head, and good company as the pillars of a good life. She is not very assertive, and while she likes gil as much as the next person, she prefers freedom over wealth.</li>

<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Resilient - Zozola is more resilient than she gives herself credit for. Even under the worst circumstances, she finds a way through it.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Intelligent - She has some manner of higher general education, and despite her lack of understanding of the world, she tends to pick up on new ideas quickly....most of the time.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Creative - A singer and musician, Zozola is quite creative. This creativity sometimes flows into her interests outside of the arts. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Graceful - In learning to dance, Zozola has gained much more control over her movement.</li>

This manifests sometimes as jealousy, bitterness, and sometimes even self-destructive behavior.</li>
<li style="background-color: #efdede; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #964b4b; margin: 5px;">Self-Centered - Her new life of hard work does not entirely discount how spoiled she was growing up. While she is empathetic to the plight of others, she tends to focus a bit too heavily on how the ordeals of others specifically affect her and hers.</li>
<li style="background-color: #efdede; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #964b4b; margin: 5px;">Stubborn - When she gets an idea into her head, it is incredibly difficult to sway her otherwise - especially if it relates to her ideals.</li>
<li style="background-color: #efdede; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #964b4b; margin: 5px;">Troublemaker - Zozola loves nothing more than to playfully needle the people around her. For the most part this is a playful sowing of chaos among friends - but it has been known to escalate under more dire circumstances. </li>

<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">The Ul'dahn Syndicate - Zo is afraid that they will continue to punish her for her defiance.</li>

<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">The Twelve - After learning that her partner, Lily, was chosen by Nophica, Zo is becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the worship of the Twelve. This discomfort increased dramatically when Daerin traded her service for Lily to have a normal hyur life. That the gods would dictate the fate of two lives without any room to budge goes against everything she stands for. While she is trying to accept the lot her beloved and her dearest friend have been dealt, the terror that the Twelve could continue to interfere with her fate runs deep.</li>

She said that the end of the current era was approaching, describing what Zozola would only call another Calamity.

Early Life
</p>

<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Childhood</p>
Zozola was born in Ul'dah to Zuzurito Lalarito and Nanasa Nasa. As the only child of a wealthy family of merchants directly connected to the Syndicate through its leader, her distant cousin Lolorito Nanarito, she grew up with everything she could have wanted. She had the best private education that Ul'dahn gil could buy, and every possible luxury that a wealthy young girl could afford.

She had a small number of friends growing up. Her main circle was a group of three young lalafellin girls - Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo - and a highlander girl - Astri - whose father had relocated to Ul'dah after making his fortune on the high seas. They shared the same tutor and attended the same events as children, so Zozola had grown quite attached to them. She trusted them more than anything.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Adolescence</p>
As Zozola blossomed into a vibrant young lady, her attachment to her female friends took on another form. While her friends were discussing their crushes on the boys they met at these high-class social events, Zo was impossibly attracted to the girls she grew up with.

When she thought of men, her immediate association was her verbally abusive father, or the scumbags who would catcall her even as a teenager. When she thought of women, she thought of the relative safety of her circle of friends. Her crushes were not at all subtle, and when they were all 17 summers of age, they called her out on it one night over a stolen bottle of whiskey. At first they jokingly threatened to out her to her parents, but in one-on-one interactions with Zozola each of them gave into their own inner curiosity.

Later, Tutumo and Fufuga would say that it was just a phase for them, or that those intimate times together somehow didn't count because she was a woman. Yuyusi went a step further and blamed the alcohol, weaving a narrative that Zozola was some kind of predator - despite the fact that it was Zozola who was frequently the most drunk...and Zozola who was terrified to initiate anything for fear of rejection. Of the four of them, only Astri seemed to acknowledge those moments for what they were, and while they never defined their relationship, they remained especially close.

Zozola needed a confidante in those days - it was the time of her life where her father Zuzurito's verbal abuse was the worst. He would often take his frustrations with work out on her - and the fact that as she grew up she became more difficult for him to control absolutely terrified him. Nanasa, meanwhile, had a hands-off approach, essentially enabling Zuzurito's behavior in the hopes that it would keep Zozola in line.

Meanwhile, Zo poured herself into the arts, her very favorite part of her well-to-do education and the only thing that allowed her to process the turmoil in her heart. She studied art and literature and participated in some theatrical productions, but her biggest love was singing. She had the very best voice teacher in all of Ul'dah, and became rather comfortable with performing on stage as a young woman.

Adulthood
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo each married wealthy men in Ul'dahn high society and essentially stepped out of Zozola's life, aside from a meeting at a bar once per moon. Astri did not marry, but she did join the Immortal Flames to serve the country she loved, and was rarely seen after that. Meanwhile, Zozola felt directionless. Her creative skills were nurtured by her education, but they would not help her in the real world - or so her father seemed to think. Her parents insisted that she take on some role within the East Aldenard Trading Company, to continue its legacy within the family and earn the respect of their family patriarch, Lord Lolorito Nanarito of the Ul'dahn Syndicate.

But Zozola was not interested in being a merchant. She longed for something more in her life, but she could not put her finger on what. For a number of years, she lived off her family's fortune, content to float aimlessly through life.

Until her parents cut her off financially.

This was supposed to be a simple lesson. Cut her off financially and she will realize her place and do as she is told. However, that did not quite go as planned. Zozola started seeking out other sources of income. She had heard that many merchants within the company would spend their gil at the Whispered Wish, so she set off, determined to find a new way to live.

It was in the pursuit of this alternate way to live that she met Daerin Roda, a host and courtesan of the Whispered Wish. Daerin was the first person to see something in Zozo other than a spoiled brat. She encouraged her to join the Whispered Wish as an employee, and taught her some valuable lessons on how to make gil on her own. And so she began actively pursuing her own fortune and a new lot in life. Her parents didn't like that. If she would not work for the benefit of the company, she would marry someone within the company.

One night, as she was on her way to visit the Wish, she was intercepted by a number of Brass Blades. Her parents shipped her off to Kugane to meet a man that they had picked out for her. His name was Hancock Fitzgerald, a smarmy merchant who worked at the Ruby Bazaar - the Kugane offices of the East Aldenard Trading Company. She shared one meal with the man and her parents before disappearing via aetheryte and returning to Ul'dah to continue the pursuit of her own interests.

Soon enough, she auditioned to become an Entertainer at the Whispered Wish, and was brought aboard.

In the time since joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola began to cut a new path for herself, having embraced both coworkers and clients in friendship. She came into her own as a Host, gradually becoming more and more comfortable with a wider variety of people. Though she never was granted the opportunity to entertain...

It was around this time that her moonly meeting with her childhood friends took place. At this meeting, Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo made clear their opinions of Zozola's new career, humiliating her in front of the entire bar. As she stormed out, she ran into Astri, who took the furious and heartbroken Zo to her apartment. They spent the evening in each others' arms, but then Zo discovered invitations on Astri's desk. Invitations, to her wedding to a Flame Captain. Zozola confronted Astri about the impending nuptials and cheating on her fiance, but Astri didn't seem to see anything wrong with it. After all, it doesn't count with a woman, right? Heartbroken and devastated to know that her last remaining childhood friend ''still'' did not understand her, Zozola stormed out.

She hasn't seen any of her so-called childhood friends since.

Shortly after that painful exchange, Zozola began training as a Red Mage under Azzy Crannach, and gradually learned to defend herself utilizing the Red. This was due to her new friends at the Wish utilizing a number of different skillsets..and she wanted to be useful. Learning this new skill filled her with a new sense of purpose.

Moreover, a frequent customer at the Whispered Wish, Lily Nibelung, had become a frequent source of comfort and levity in Zo's day to day life - mending the wounds inflicted upon her heart. She did not realize it at the time, but she was starting to fall in love... and she began to feel as though she was taking control of her life.

But it wasn't enough. Someone within the East Aldenard Trading Company began to interfere with Daerin's business. After a particularly bad night following this news, Zozola was determined to speak to her cousin Lolorito and put a stop to this nonsense and protect her friends from retaliation - even if it meant walking away from the life she had chosen, for good.

Lolorito was determined to humble Zozola before allowing her to live freely, and thus she entered an agreement of indentured servitude. She spent a number of weeks working as a handmaiden in Lolorito's estate, humiliated and abused by his secretary Koyano Mihata, before news of his involvement in such an unsavory practice started to get out. In order to cover up his involvement in all this, he stripped Koyano of all privileges and had Zozola sent to the Saltery in Gyr Abania, where she would meet her end in a horrible "accident". Before she made it there, however, her friends intercepted her escort, rescuing her and giving her the strength to stand up for herself once more. She threatened Lolorito with some blackmail material she had gathered during her time in his estate, and returned home to the Goblet.

Recovery from her ordeal with Lord Lolorito proved rather difficult, and that recovery was punctuated by her growing attraction and yearning for the kind Lily Nibelung, who grew further and further from her in the weeks since Zozola's return. Lily had turned out to be under the influence of the voidsent Lydaea, who eventually succeeded in possessing Lily. During the weeks of planning and worrying that lead up to Lily's eventual rescue from the clutches of this voidsent parasite, Zozola was forced to come to terms with her feelings for the hyur woman, even going so far as to commission Aneth Ralene to craft a lily pendant of moonstone that she would later gift Lily as a symbol of her love.

In the meantime, she met Mynne Rosalia, Lily's pupil, who assisted them (after some negotiation) in tracking Lily to Urth's Fount, where Zozola confronted Lydaea, with the help of Daerin Roda, Lalamune Zazamune, and La'nette Eve. After a significant struggle that almost cost everyone their lives, they eventually freed Lily from her grasp.

Lily had a long recovery under Zozola's watchful eye, and when she awakened, Zozola confessed her love, not wanting to miss another chance. Lily reciprocated her feelings, to Zo's absolute relief, and so their romance began.

This was not to say that their struggles were over, however. Her friend La'nette was compelled by a jutsu to return to her clan, and thus another rescue would be underway. Meanwhile, however, tensions were beginning to build with Zozola's employer. In the time since she joined, was never granted the opportunity to use her musical skills to entertain, and she was often overlooked and underappreciated. This tension began to slowly build - and she was far from the only person struggling. Daerin and Lalamune were also struggling with Wish management for a number of reasons, and the tension continued to build while they fought to retrieve their friend.

With La'nette returned to them, Zozola, Lily, Lalamune, Daerin, and La'nette decided to go on a week-long vacation to Costa Del Sol. During this vacation, the three employed by the Whispered Wish decided to walk away from the brothel for good, and shortly thereafter they were contacted by Azzy Crannach herself, who announced that she would be building a cabaret called the Purple Orchid. She offered each of them positions, and Zo became the Director of Entertainment for the business.

The Orchid celebrated their first Open House a few short moons later. Immediately afterwards, Zozola was approached by Mynne, who gave her a note in some kind of code indicating that someone intended to take Lily away. Not knowing the context, and feeling pressure from Mynne to keep this quiet, Zozola kept it a secret, and it ate away at her for moons. The note was addressed to a 'Havarr', and when one of the Orchid's patrons - Anastasia Tigerlily - happened to drop that name, Zozola panicked. Lalamune instructed Zo and Lily to go hide in the Security Office while he went to confront Anastasia...and then he disappeared.

After a long stretch of time, eventually the Orchid was able to determine Zaz's whereabouts...where he was, in fact, willingly disgusing himself as an ally of the Lambs of Dalamud to unlock certain secrets of Amdapor. After a brief possession, Zaz was returned to them.

Zozola's father, Zuzurito Lalarito, came to the Orchid and spoke with Lily and Elia Nelia, informing them that Nanasa Nasa, Zozola's mother, was ill and would likely be passing away within a half a turn. Zozola, of course, did not take this well. She could not figure out if this was some elaborate ploy to get her back under the thumb of her family or if it was true. As a compromise, she sent a heartfelt letter to Nanasa as a final goodbye, and to explain her reasoning.

She received a response two moons later. Nanasa was going to forgive Zo, and moreover, she would be sneaking off to Costa Del Sol to see the ocean one last time and requested that Zozola come and bring Lily with her. Hesitantly, Zozola decided to do just that...only to discover Nanasa already dead - her wine poisoned by an unknown person. Zozola of course was immediately accused of the crime. It was not until an investigation brought information to light that one Edam Bellveil was responsible for the crime that she was freed of suspicion. But like so many other things, that, too, was complicated. Edam Bellveil carried out the assassination...at the behest of Koyano Mihata - Zo's torturer - who had slowly earned some semblance of trust by a number of members of the Orchid.

Koyano's involvement was not obvious at first, and it caused a rift between many people involved - including Daerin and La'nette, who ended up splitting ultimately as a result of this friction. But this culminated when Koyano ''killed'' Daerin...and then Lily brought her back to life.

Thus was the start of a transformation for Lily. She would appear as a woman made of pure white light. Then her memories started to go. She lost the past turn of memories, yet still she fell in love with Zozola yet again. In spite of this, worry for Lily's condition caused Zo to look toward the stars for guidance. Perhaps she could learn a way to reverse this thread of fate for Lily... but ultimately she was unable to do anything - learning that Lily is the seed of the World Tree, Yggdrasil...and Daerin, whom now holds a piece of Lily inside her...is the Tree's Mana Knight.

This was a fate that she was unable to change, as much as she tried. For as Lily threatened to sprout, Daerin agreed to be the immortal Guardian of the tree in exchange for Lily's normal, Hyurian life. Zo was filled with righteous fury. How dare Nophica take what does not belong to her - the life of Lily Nibelung - only to negotiate for it?!

However, before she parted ways with the Goddess Nophica...she was given a revelation. This era was coming to an end. A new Calamity was coming. Despite her feelings for the goddess, Zozola took that information to heart - and it became a driving force to changing their company, from the Purple Orchid Cabaret...to a new organization called Legatum Mysteria.

<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Zozola is trying to find a way to accept Lily's enthusiastic dedication to Nophica, while also delving deeper and deeper into the time aspects of Astrology. She is on the cusp of discovering something new...but will she be able to harness it once she finds it?

With unrest coming to a head in Ul'dah and so many friends and loved ones in danger...as well as the Calamity brought to her attention by Nophica... Zozola is not finding any relief to her anxiety any time soon.

Shortly after joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola met ''[[Lily Nibelung|Lily Nibelung]]'', a client at the famed Wishing Hour. Zozola was very new to her job, and extremely nervous, but Lily and her friend Bhaldbyrm put her at ease. They hit it off right away, and in short order they had become fast friends. This was of course in part due to Lady Tsyring's Mystery Shot, which caused the two women to become fascinated with each other, and thus they got to know each other rather quickly! Though the shot's effects were temporary, their interest in each other remained.

As Wishing Hours came and went, they would spend even more time together, bonding over drinks and lengthy conversations. Lily has since become one of the closest people in Zozola's life. It did not take Zozola long to completely fall for the hyur woman, and she one of the biggest reasons Zozola turned herself over to Lord Lolorito. She couldn't bear the thought of Lily, with whom she had spent so much time, being targeted by her family.

Lily, too, was involved in her rescue, and was at her side to help her recover...at least until she was accosted and eventually possessed by a voidsent named Lydaea.

Zozola was initially told that Lily had died, which shattered her, but she was certain that something darker was behind Lily's disappearance. As she made plans for her rescue, she eventually had to come to terms with her feelings. She joined Lalamune Zazamune, Daerin Roda, and La'nette Eve in rescuing her beloved and forcibly tearing the voidsent from Lily's body and destroying it. With Lily finally returned, they finally confessed their feelings to each other, and have been happy lovebirds ever since. This was well over a turn ago.

Lily has been nothing but supportive of Zo's passions and aspirations and is always willing to help her when she needs it. Their bond has remained strong even after Lily temporarily lost her memories. Zo is considering a proposal sometime in the next few moons...

Zozola met ''[[Daerin Roda|Daerin Roda]]'' shortly after being cut off from her family. Despite Zozola's self-centered nature, Daerin seemed to see something in her, and took her on as some sort of protégé. Daerin taught her how to make gil on her own through aquisitions and trade, and encouraged her to pursue a new life at the Whispered Wish. Daerin even connected her to Azzy Crannach, who would go on to train Zozola in the art of the Red.

When Daerin's business was affected by Zozola's family, it was a major incentive for her to turn herself in to her cousin Lord Lolorito. Daerin led the charge in rescuing Zozola when she was being taken to the Saltery, and even now she looks after her dear dunesfolk friend.

Daerin is incredibly important to her, not only as a mentor, but as a close friend and confidante. They have gone through much together, and Zo intends to keep it that way.

</div>
''[[Mynne Rosalia|Mynne Rosalia]]'' is Lily's pupil. You would think that their mutual connection to Lily would inherently mean that Mynne and Zozola would get along, right? Wrong. After Lily was taken, Mynne offered her services of tracking her mentor...for a price. After antagonizing Zozola and shaming her for her wealthy background, Mynne agreed to do the work for a significant amount of gil as well as to have Zozola submit herself as her courtesan for one night.

Mynne was successful in tracking Lily. She even helped the group return home before they were caught by Wood Wailers. But in Zozola's every attempt to be sincere with Mynne, the miqo'te threw it back in her face.

That is...until recently. Mynne came to Zozola with intelligence about a threat to Lily Nibelung, and they have tenatively begun working together, Mynne's hard exterior seeming to soften somewhat. In time, they became close friends in spite of their differences - in part due to their mutual desire for lasting chang in Ul'dah. When Zo received her inheritance from her dead mother, she funneled it through a number of backchannels to found the Scratch Memorial House - Scratch being the name of one of the kids that Mynne looked after who had sadly been murdered.

</div>
La'nette was a maid who works for Lily Nibelung. Zozola was unsure what to make of the ever-selfless La'nette when they first met. She was particularly confused at her ever-present attitude of servitude and her apparent closeness to Lily.

However, in time, La'nette began to grow on Zozola, despite Zo's concern that La'nette was taking her role as a servant too seriously, which even culminated in injury. When Lily was taken, they bonded over her disappearance, but despite that, Zo continued to emphasize that one's job does not define who they are, and gets a bit frustrated when La'nette takes things too far.

Recently, La'nette appears to have perished in a self-inflicted explosion to save Lily....or has she?

Zozola met Bhaldbyrm when she met Lily. A gentle giant, his kind shyness disarmed her, allowing her to feel at ease. She bonded with him early on on their mutual appreciation of lovely ladies, and she assisted Lily in encouraging the shy lad to pursue a courtesan he was particularly drawn to.

In the time since they met, she has looked on Bhaldbyrm with familial affection, and has ever tried to encourage him to go after what he wants - even when his shyness and anxiety gets the best of him. During her rescue, Bhaldbyrm held off reinforcements, allowing the others to retrieve her safely.

He has since been ever a steadfast ally in all things, even lending his cooking skills.

Daerin connected Zozola to Azzy, a cantankerous plainsfolk Red Mage, who took on Zozola as a pupil and taught her the ways of the Red. While a far cry from the matronly mentor Zozola would have preferred to work with, she taught her well - albeit in a rather unconventional manner. Azzy was very hard on Zozola, but earned her respect.

Unbeknownst to Zozola, Azzy was in part responsible for information getting out about her indentured servitude, which allowed her other friends to rescue her. When they did so, Daerin provided Zozola with a new Red Mage uniform, as a gift from Azzy.

Azzy kept Wood Wailers at bay while Zozo and her party tracked down Lydaea, allowing Lily to be rescued without the party being forced to be taken into their custody.

Most recently, Azzy contacted Zo and company with an offer - to help her build a new Cabaret called the Purple Orchid. Since Zozola was feeling greatly unappreciated at her current place of employment, she agreed.

When Zo felt the need to take the Orchid in a new direction with Legatum Mysteria, Azzy was supportive.

Though Azzy and Zozola are hardly affectionate with each other, Zo sees Azzy as more than a teacher or benefactor.

''[[Seselia Selia|Seselia Selia]]'' is a genius tinkerer employed by Legatum Mysteria, whose manner of speaking can seem blunt and calculating, for which they did not get along at first. Moreover, Lalamune Zazamune's sudden declaration of love for the girl threw Zola for a loop, and she is struggling to understand this budding romance happening under her roof.

However, Zola made a number of concessions when she was stunned by the sincerity of Zaz's confession, including giving up her aethersight spectacles for moons so that he could have another pair made for Seselia. She also made attempts to reach her on her level, and their relationship seemed to be getting better...

Until Zola realized that Selia is a Monetarist sympathizer - not out of malice, but out of sheer ignorance. Though she realizes this, she sees her former self in Selia's naivety - which only causes her to judge Selia more harshly.

However, on the same night that Lalamune violated Zozola's trust, he also cheated on Seselia, and Zo felt true sympathy for Seselia for the first time, and made a legitimate attempt to reach out to her. In this attempt, she realized how lovely Seselia actually was, and secretly hopes to grow even closer to her.

''[[Lalamune Zazamune|Lalamune Zazamune]]'', or 'Zaz', is an individual that Zozola had some trouble understanding at first. He is a scholar, first and foremost, and met Zozola while they both worked at the Whispered Wish. From the start, they got along quite well, as Zozola was incredibly impressed with his knowledge in all things aether and the ease with which he would speak to people.

However, as they got to know each other, his flirtacious advances caused her to panic. He ''was'' one of the few men she was attracted to, but she did not know how to navigate such feelings, having only known the affections of women in her past. He of course backed off as any respectable gentleman would, but as they got to know each other better, that brick wall started to be whittled away bit by bit. He was also involved in her rescue, and his kind words to her and genuine expression of emotion caused the remaining barrier between them to shatter.

However, this was not to last. Things have been complicated since they had one major falling out many moons ago, and a number of smaller conflicts since then. She still cares for him greatly, but will she ever fully trust him the way she did before?

</div>
Zuzurito is what one might call a 'hard-ass'. Though he has gifted his daughter everything she could want in her young life, he cannot stand not being able to control her. During her childhood, stepping out of line tended to resolve in a barrage of verbal abuse, and that did not change as she got older. He sees his daughter as his property, and her choice of profession infuriates him.

Upon his daughter's arrest, and learning some of the terrible things that his family has done to her, he is starting to realize that not all that glitters is gold, and though he feels like he cannot do much, he risked his neck to get clues to his daughter in the wake of Nanasa's murder.

</div>
While Nanasa was not quite as abusive as her husband, she enabled it, seeing nothing wrong with his behavior. She could not understand why her daughter would not simply submit for the betterment of the Company. Zozola tried to get through to Nanasa multiple times, but it has never gone well. Until recently.

Nanasa was diagnosed with a fatal illness, and when Zozola learned of this, she wrote Nanasa a farewell letter to make peace. While Nanasa resented this letter at first, she slowly began to realize how in the wrong she had truly been. She changed her will in secret so that Zozola would get a significant inheritance upon her death. She then reached out via a missive of her own, forgiving her daughter and granting her her blessing, and requesting that they meet in Costa Del Sol - and that Zozola bring Lily with her.

Sadly, however, the meeting never was to be, for Nanasa was poisoned before Zozola and Lily made it there...and Zozola was subsequently charged with the crime. She has since been exonerated, but she hasn't fully processed this loss.

Before her rebellion against her family interests, Zozola had very few interactions with Lolorito, but everything came to a head when she began to pursue her own interests. When she came to him to negotiate, he demanded that she agree to indentured servitude to earn her freedom from family obligations, then directed his secretary, Koyano Mihata, to 'break' her. When Koyano let slip his involvement with such unsavory practices, he had Zozola sent to Gyr Abania to work at the Saltery there and eventually die in an 'accident'. She was rescued, and subsequently revealed that she had kept a dossier of blackmail material, advising her dear cousin to let her be. She has not heard from him since, but there is no doubt in her mind that he will retaliate someday.

Though they are not yet close, Zozola appreciate's Diana's no-nonsense attitude and ever-so-blunt wisdom. She sees Diana as a steadfast ally, and they have worked together a number of times to solve the various problems that have come their way. Diana was gracious enough to accept a Security post at the Purple Orchid for a time.

''[[Koyano Mihata|Koyano Mihata]]'', one of Lolorito's secretaries, was charged with the task of 'breaking' Zozola, and what she did was just that. She physically abused her, taunted her by going to see her friends, and ensured that Zozola knew that she was worthless and disgusting. During a visit to the Wish to meet her friends and taunt her charge, she was ambushed by Daerin, Zaz, Lily, and La'nette. It was during this altercation that she let slip that Lolorito was behind their friend's disappearance - a fact that she thought they already knew. When Lolorito found out, he ousted her completely, and she gave up everything she knew about Zozola's whereabouts, allowing her friends to mount a rescue.

To prove that she would turn over a new leaf, she began helping Zozola's friends with various task. assisted with the rescue of La'nette Eve in exchange for a Sharlayan recommendation from Lalamune Zazamune. She assisted Seselia with an important project to bring Zaz home when he went missing. By all accounts it appeared that she was trying to be a better person, but it was all a farce. She was behind the murder of Zozola's mother, having manipulated a man named Edam Bellveil into carrying it out and framing Zozola.

Daerin tracked her down, and she murdered Daerin in front of all of her friends before making a grand escape. Lily was able to bring Daerin back, and Koyano made the mistake of leaving evidence of her involvement with Nanasa's murder behind.

She was not heard from again until she teamed up with Marielle, but was fairly quickly killed by Daerin during the ensuing struggle. It seems that Zozola's long torturous history with Koyano Mihata is finally over.

I am open to all RP backgrounds! Feel free to walkup if you see me out and about in the world with the RP tag on!

However, I have the following requests:
# Please keep IC and OOC interactions separate in ''/say'' by keeping OOC comments within double parentheses ((like so!)).
# Romance is fine if it develops naturally, but please respect that Zozola is polyamorous and will be open to multiple relationships at once. And on that note, please respect that IC and OOC are separate!
# Please clear Zozola's involvement with any huge storyline with me OOC before dragging her into it. I am typically open to big storylines, though, so don't be afraid to message me!
# While Zozola does work in adult-only spaces, please do not randomly proposition me for ERP. That's sexual harrassment, kids! I will blacklist you and report you to my FC.
# DDLG/Lolicon/Age Play Fetishists - DO NOT INTERACT.

Thank you! ♥️

General Information
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
A distant cousin of Lord Lolorito and the child of wealthy merchants, Zozola Zola has lived a comfortable life until about a turn ago. When her parents cut her off financially, she sought out her own path in life - a freedom she has since embraced in spite of her family's many failed attempts to control her. Zozola is a performer and an adventurer, as well as a Director for Legatum Mysteria.
</div>

<p style="background-color: #595959; border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding: .2em; border: none; font-variant: small-caps; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-size: 1.7em; line-height: 2em; color: #fff;">
Appearance
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Zozola is quite short, even for a lalafell, standing at a solid 2'10". She is also quite chubby. Her Ul'dahn brown skin is soft and supple, and there is a constant blush to her cheeks. Her long wavy hair is a pale mint green in color, with pink highlights on the tips. She usually wears her hair in braids and ponytails. She has striking lilac dunesfolk eyes.

She is often seen draped in pastel colors or jewel tones. Despite her soft cute appearance and aesthetic, her body language often betrays her true salty nature.

</ul>

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Mannerisms</p>
Zozola generally approaches all social situations with a polite demeanor. This often proves to be a bit of a falsehood in uncomfortable social situations however, wherein she remains polite but her body language betrays her discomfort entirely. She is not very good at making new friends, though once she is close to someone she becomes incredibly comfortable with them.

Zozola loves to eat, drink, and be merry with those she is most comfortable with. Her flirtaciousness toward those she is especially close to is omnipresent as she loves to get a rise out of those she would be intimate with, but when they flirt back she tends to get incredibly flustered.

She is rather insecure, and she tends to take it personally when she is overlooked, rejected, or condescended to. When such a thing happens, the mask of politeness dissolves and her true bitterness is plainly visible to the world.


<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Philosophy & Ideals</p>
Zozola believes in the autonomy of the individual above all else. This idealized freedom is everpresent in her life, bordering on hedonism at times. This concept expands to a romantic ideal as well - believing in the ability to love multiple people at once...but also in the responsibility that comes with it.

She cares deeply for her friends, especially those who have seen her at her lowest. She can be rather selfish, but if it is for her closest friends, she will do just about anything to protect them.

She wishes to define her own fate, even if it means grasping it from the hands of the Twelve themselves.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Personality Tidbits</p>
<ul style="width: 100%; list-style: none; margin-left: 0; margin-top: 1.2em;">
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">While attracted to ''some'' men, Zozola is typically uncomfortable and annoyed by them - with few exceptions. She largely prefers the company of women, in both romantic and platonic contexts.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">Due to her insecurities and inherent awkwardness, Zozola struggles a bit in social situations, especially large groups. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">She despises being condescended to, ignored, and infantilized because of her size above most things. Look down on her at your own peril. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">Despite being privileged in her youth, it takes very little to make Zo feel satisfied with her circumstances. She sees good food, good drink, a comfortable place to rest your head, and good company as the pillars of a good life. She is not very assertive, and while she likes gil as much as the next person, she prefers freedom over wealth.</li>
</ul>

Early Life
</p>

<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Childhood</p>
Zozola was born in Ul'dah to Zuzurito Lalarito and Nanasa Nasa. As the only child of a wealthy family of merchants directly connected to the Syndicate through its leader, her distant cousin Lolorito Nanarito, she grew up with everything she could have wanted. She had the best private education that Ul'dahn gil could buy, and every possible luxury that a wealthy young girl could afford.

She had a small number of friends growing up. Her main circle was a group of three young lalafellin girls - Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo - and a highlander girl - Astri - whose father had relocated to Ul'dah after making his fortune on the high seas. They shared the same tutor and attended the same events as children, so Zozola had grown quite attached to them. She trusted them more than anything.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Adolescence</p>
As Zozola blossomed into a vibrant young lady, her attachment to her female friends took on another form. While her friends were discussing their crushes on the boys they met at these high-class social events, Zo was impossibly attracted to the girls she grew up with.

When she thought of men, her immediate association was her verbally abusive father, or the scumbags who would catcall her even as a teenager. When she thought of women, she thought of the relative safety of her circle of friends. Her crushes were not at all subtle, and when they were all 17 summers of age, they called her out on it one night over a stolen bottle of whiskey. At first they jokingly threatened to out her to her parents, but in one-on-one interactions with Zozola each of them gave into their own inner curiosity.

Later, Tutumo and Fufuga would say that it was just a phase for them, or that those intimate times together somehow didn't count because she was a woman. Yuyusi went a step further and blamed the alcohol, weaving a narrative that Zozola was some kind of predator - despite the fact that it was Zozola who was frequently the most drunk...and Zozola who was terrified to initiate anything for fear of rejection. Of the four of them, only Astri seemed to acknowledge those moments for what they were, and while they never defined their relationship, they remained especially close.

Zozola needed a confidante in those days - it was the time of her life where her father Zuzurito's verbal abuse was the worst. He would often take his frustrations with work out on her - and the fact that as she grew up she became more difficult for him to control absolutely terrified him. Nanasa, meanwhile, had a hands-off approach, essentially enabling Zuzurito's behavior in the hopes that it would keep Zozola in line.

Meanwhile, Zo poured herself into the arts, her very favorite part of her well-to-do education and the only thing that allowed her to process the turmoil in her heart. She studied art and literature and participated in some theatrical productions, but her biggest love was singing. She had the very best voice teacher in all of Ul'dah, and became rather comfortable with performing on stage as a young woman.

Adulthood
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo each married wealthy men in Ul'dahn high society and essentially stepped out of Zozola's life, aside from a meeting at a bar once per moon. Astri did not marry, but she did join the Immortal Flames to serve the country she loved, and was rarely seen after that. Meanwhile, Zozola felt directionless. Her creative skills were nurtured by her education, but they would not help her in the real world - or so her father seemed to think. Her parents insisted that she take on some role within the East Aldenard Trading Company, to continue its legacy within the family and earn the respect of their family patriarch, Lord Lolorito Nanarito of the Ul'dahn Syndicate.

But Zozola was not interested in being a merchant. She longed for something more in her life, but she could not put her finger on what. For a number of years, she lived off her family's fortune, content to float aimlessly through life.

Until her parents cut her off financially.

This was supposed to be a simple lesson. Cut her off financially and she will realize her place and do as she is told. However, that did not quite go as planned. Zozola started seeking out other sources of income. She had heard that many merchants within the company would spend their gil at the Whispered Wish, so she set off, determined to find a new way to live.

It was in the pursuit of this alternate way to live that she met Daerin Roda, a host and courtesan of the Whispered Wish. Daerin was the first person to see something in Zozo other than a spoiled brat. She encouraged her to join the Whispered Wish as an employee, and taught her some valuable lessons on how to make gil on her own. And so she began actively pursuing her own fortune and a new lot in life. Her parents didn't like that. If she would not work for the benefit of the company, she would marry someone within the company.

One night, as she was on her way to visit the Wish, she was intercepted by a number of Brass Blades. Her parents shipped her off to Kugane to meet a man that they had picked out for her. His name was Hancock Fitzgerald, a smarmy merchant who worked at the Ruby Bazaar - the Kugane offices of the East Aldenard Trading Company. She shared one meal with the man and her parents before disappearing via aetheryte and returning to Ul'dah to continue the pursuit of her own interests.

Soon enough, she auditioned to become an Entertainer at the Whispered Wish, and was brought aboard.

In the time since joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola began to cut a new path for herself, having embraced both coworkers and clients in friendship. She came into her own as a Host, gradually becoming more and more comfortable with a wider variety of people. Though she never was granted the opportunity to entertain...

It was around this time that her moonly meeting with her childhood friends took place. At this meeting, Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo made clear their opinions of Zozola's new career, humiliating her in front of the entire bar. As she stormed out, she ran into Astri, who took the furious and heartbroken Zo to her apartment. They spent the evening in each others' arms, but then Zo discovered invitations on Astri's desk. Invitations, to her wedding to a Flame Captain. Zozola confronted Astri about the impending nuptials and cheating on her fiance, but Astri didn't seem to see anything wrong with it. After all, it doesn't count with a woman, right? Heartbroken and devastated to know that her last remaining childhood friend ''still'' did not understand her, Zozola stormed out.

She hasn't seen any of her so-called childhood friends since.

Shortly after that painful exchange, Zozola began training as a Red Mage under Azzy Crannach, and gradually learned to defend herself utilizing the Red. This was due to her new friends at the Wish utilizing a number of different skillsets..and she wanted to be useful. Learning this new skill filled her with a new sense of purpose.

Moreover, a frequent customer at the Whispered Wish, Lily Nibelung, had become a frequent source of comfort and levity in Zo's day to day life - mending the wounds inflicted upon her heart. She did not realize it at the time, but she was starting to fall in love... and she began to feel as though she was taking control of her life.

But it wasn't enough. Someone within the East Aldenard Trading Company began to interfere with Daerin's business. After a particularly bad night following this news, Zozola was determined to speak to her cousin Lolorito and put a stop to this nonsense and protect her friends from retaliation - even if it meant walking away from the life she had chosen, for good.

Lolorito was determined to humble Zozola before allowing her to live freely, and thus she entered an agreement of indentured servitude. She spent a number of weeks working as a handmaiden in Lolorito's estate, humiliated and abused by his secretary Koyano Mihata, before news of his involvement in such an unsavory practice started to get out. In order to cover up his involvement in all this, he stripped Koyano of all privileges and had Zozola sent to the Saltery in Gyr Abania, where she would meet her end in a horrible "accident". Before she made it there, however, her friends intercepted her escort, rescuing her and giving her the strength to stand up for herself once more. She threatened Lolorito with some blackmail material she had gathered during her time in his estate, and returned home to the Goblet.

Recovery from her ordeal with Lord Lolorito proved rather difficult, and that recovery was punctuated by her growing attraction and yearning for the kind Lily Nibelung, who grew further and further from her in the weeks since Zozola's return. Lily had turned out to be under the influence of the voidsent Lydaea, who eventually succeeded in possessing Lily. During the weeks of planning and worrying that lead up to Lily's eventual rescue from the clutches of this voidsent parasite, Zozola was forced to come to terms with her feelings for the hyur woman, even going so far as to commission Aneth Ralene to craft a lily pendant of moonstone that she would later gift Lily as a symbol of her love.

In the meantime, she met Mynne Rosalia, Lily's pupil, who assisted them (after some negotiation) in tracking Lily to Urth's Fount, where Zozola confronted Lydaea, with the help of Daerin Roda, Lalamune Zazamune, and La'nette Eve. After a significant struggle that almost cost everyone their lives, they eventually freed Lily from her grasp.

Lily had a long recovery under Zozola's watchful eye, and when she awakened, Zozola confessed her love, not wanting to miss another chance. Lily reciprocated her feelings, to Zo's absolute relief, and so their romance began.

This was not to say that their struggles were over, however. Her friend La'nette was compelled by a jutsu to return to her clan, and thus another rescue would be underway. Meanwhile, however, tensions were beginning to build with Zozola's employer. In the time since she joined, was never granted the opportunity to use her musical skills to entertain, and she was often overlooked and underappreciated. This tension began to slowly build - and she was far from the only person struggling. Daerin and Lalamune were also struggling with Wish management for a number of reasons, and the tension continued to build while they fought to retrieve their friend.

With La'nette returned to them, Zozola, Lily, Lalamune, Daerin, and La'nette decided to go on a week-long vacation to Costa Del Sol. During this vacation, the three employed by the Whispered Wish decided to walk away from the brothel for good, and shortly thereafter they were contacted by Azzy Crannach herself, who announced that she would be building a cabaret called the Purple Orchid. She offered each of them positions, and Zo became the Director of Entertainment for the business.

The Orchid celebrated their first Open House a few short moons later. Immediately afterwards, Zozola was approached by Mynne, who gave her a note in some kind of code indicating that someone intended to take Lily away. Not knowing the context, and feeling pressure from Mynne to keep this quiet, Zozola kept it a secret, and it ate away at her for moons. The note was addressed to a 'Havarr', and when one of the Orchid's patrons - Anastasia Tigerlily - happened to drop that name, Zozola panicked. Lalamune instructed Zo and Lily to go hide in the Security Office while he went to confront Anastasia...and then he disappeared.

After a long stretch of time, eventually the Orchid was able to determine Zaz's whereabouts...where he was, in fact, willingly disgusing himself as an ally of the Lambs of Dalamud to unlock certain secrets of Amdapor. After a brief possession, Zaz was returned to them.

Zozola's father, Zuzurito Lalarito, came to the Orchid and spoke with Lily and Elia Nelia, informing them that Nanasa Nasa, Zozola's mother, was ill and would likely be passing away within a half a turn. Zozola, of course, did not take this well. She could not figure out if this was some elaborate ploy to get her back under the thumb of her family or if it was true. As a compromise, she sent a heartfelt letter to Nanasa as a final goodbye, and to explain her reasoning.

She received a response two moons later. Nanasa was going to forgive Zo, and moreover, she would be sneaking off to Costa Del Sol to see the ocean one last time and requested that Zozola come and bring Lily with her. Hesitantly, Zozola decided to do just that...only to discover Nanasa already dead - her wine poisoned by an unknown person. Zozola of course was immediately accused of the crime. It was not until an investigation brought information to light that one Edam Bellveil was responsible for the crime that she was freed of suspicion. But like so many other things, that, too, was complicated. Edam Bellveil carried out the assassination...at the behest of Koyano Mihata - Zo's torturer - who had slowly earned some semblance of trust by a number of members of the Orchid.

Koyano's involvement was not obvious at first, and it caused a rift between many people involved - including Daerin and La'nette, who ended up splitting ultimately as a result of this friction. But this culminated when Koyano ''killed'' Daerin...and then Lily brought her back to life.

Thus was the start of a transformation for Lily. She would appear as a woman made of pure white light. Then her memories started to go. She lost the past turn of memories, yet still she fell in love with Zozola yet again. In spite of this, worry for Lily's condition caused Zo to look toward the stars for guidance. Perhaps she could learn a way to reverse this thread of fate for Lily... but ultimately she was unable to do anything - learning that Lily is the seed of the World Tree, Yggdrasil...and Daerin, whom now holds a piece of Lily inside her...is the Tree's Mana Knight.

This was a fate that she was unable to change, as much as she tried. For as Lily threatened to sprout, Daerin agreed to be the immortal Guardian of the tree in exchange for Lily's normal, Hyurian life. Zo was filled with righteous fury. How dare Nophica take what does not belong to her - the life of Lily Nibelung - only to negotiate for it?!

However, before she parted ways with the Goddess Nophica...she was given a revelation. This era was coming to an end. A new Calamity was coming. Despite her feelings for the goddess, Zozola took that information to heart - and it became a driving force to changing their company, from the Purple Orchid Cabaret...to a new organization called Legatum Mysteria.

<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Zozola is trying to find a way to accept Lily's enthusiastic dedication to Nophica, while also delving deeper and deeper into the time aspects of Astrology. She is on the cusp of discovering something new...but will she be able to harness it once she finds it?

With unrest coming to a head in Ul'dah and so many friends and loved ones in danger...as well as the Calamity brought to her attention by Nophica... Zozola is not finding any relief to her anxiety any time soon.

Shortly after joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola met ''[[Lily Nibelung|Lily Nibelung]]'', a client at the famed Wishing Hour. Zozola was very new to her job, and extremely nervous, but Lily and her friend Bhaldbyrm put her at ease. They hit it off right away, and in short order they had become fast friends. This was of course in part due to Lady Tsyring's Mystery Shot, which caused the two women to become fascinated with each other, and thus they got to know each other rather quickly! Though the shot's effects were temporary, their interest in each other remained.

As Wishing Hours came and went, they would spend even more time together, bonding over drinks and lengthy conversations. Lily has since become one of the closest people in Zozola's life. It did not take Zozola long to completely fall for the hyur woman, and she one of the biggest reasons Zozola turned herself over to Lord Lolorito. She couldn't bear the thought of Lily, with whom she had spent so much time, being targeted by her family.

Lily, too, was involved in her rescue, and was at her side to help her recover...at least until she was accosted and eventually possessed by a voidsent named Lydaea.

Zozola was initially told that Lily had died, which shattered her, but she was certain that something darker was behind Lily's disappearance. As she made plans for her rescue, she eventually had to come to terms with her feelings. She joined Lalamune Zazamune, Daerin Roda, and La'nette Eve in rescuing her beloved and forcibly tearing the voidsent from Lily's body and destroying it. With Lily finally returned, they finally confessed their feelings to each other, and have been happy lovebirds ever since.

Lily has been nothing but supportive of Zo's passions and aspirations and is always willing to help her when she needs it. They stood together through the temporary loss of La'nette (who they successfully rescued) and Zozola's move to establish the Purple Orchid. Though Zozola has recently felt compelled to keep a dangerous secret from her hyurian lover, in time honesty prevailed, and they mean to face the trials and tribulations of the world together, as a team.

Zozola met ''[[Daerin Roda|Daerin Roda]]'' shortly after being cut off from her family. Despite Zozola's self-centered nature, Daerin seemed to see something in her, and took her on as some sort of protégé. Daerin taught her how to make gil on her own through aquisitions and trade, and encouraged her to pursue a new life at the Whispered Wish. Daerin even connected her to Azzy Crannach, who would go on to train Zozola in the art of the Red.

When Daerin's business was affected by Zozola's family, it was a major incentive for her to turn herself in to her cousin Lord Lolorito. Daerin led the charge in rescuing Zozola when she was being taken to the Saltery, and even now she looks after her dear dunesfolk friend.

Daerin is incredibly important to her, not only as a mentor, but as a close friend and confidante.

''[[Mynne Rosalia|Mynne Rosalia]]'' is Lily's pupil. You would think that their mutual connection to Lily would inherently mean that Mynne and Zozola would get along, right? Wrong. After Lily was taken, Mynne offered her services of tracking her mentor...for a price. After antagonizing Zozola and shaming her for her wealthy background, Mynne agreed to do the work for a significant amount of gil as well as to have Zozola submit herself as her courtesan for one night.

Mynne was successful in tracking Lily. She even helped the group return home before they were caught by Wood Wailers. But in Zozola's every attempt to be sincere with Mynne, the miqo'te threw it back in her face.

That is...until recently. Mynne came to Zozola with intelligence about a threat to Lily Nibelung, and they have tenatively begun working together, Mynne's hard exterior seeming to soften somewhat. Though Zozola doubts they will ever be friends, there is a begrudging respect there. Moreover, Mynne's desire to act against the Ul'dahn Syndicate has piqued her interest.

La'nette is a maid who works for Lily Nibelung. Zozola was unsure what to make of the ever-selfless La'nette when they first met. She was particularly confused at her ever-present attitude of servitude and her apparent closeness to Lily.

However, in time, La'nette began to grow on Zozola, despite Zo's concern that La'nette was taking her role as a servant too seriously, which even culminated in injury. When Lily was taken, they bonded over her disappearance, but despite that, Zo continued to emphasize that one's job does not define who they are, and gets a bit frustrated when La'nette takes things too far.

When La'nette was compelled to return to her clan, Zozola was on the front lines to bring her home. Zozola has since been supportive of La'nette's relationship with Daerin and her work in the Ishgardian Restoration, but not everything is sunshine and rainbows between them of late.

Zozola met Bhaldbyrm when she met Lily. A gentle giant, his kind shyness disarmed her, allowing her to feel at ease. She bonded with him early on on their mutual appreciation of lovely ladies, and she assisted Lily in encouraging the shy lad to pursue a courtesan he was particularly drawn to.

In the time since they met, she has looked on Bhaldbyrm with familial affection, and has ever tried to encourage him to go after what he wants - even when his shyness and anxiety gets the best of him. During her rescue, Bhaldbyrm held off reinforcements, allowing the others to retrieve her safely.

He has since been ever a steadfast ally in all things, even lending his cooking skills to the Purple Orchid.

Daerin connected Zozola to Azzy, a cantankerous plainsfolk Red Mage, who took on Zozola as a pupil and taught her the ways of the Red. While a far cry from the matronly mentor Zozola would have preferred to work with, she taught her well - albeit in a rather unconventional manner. Azzy was very hard on Zozola, but earned her respect.

Unbeknownst to Zozola, Azzy was in part responsible for information getting out about her indentured servitude, which allowed her other friends to rescue her. When they did so, Daerin provided Zozola with a new Red Mage uniform, as a gift from Azzy.

Azzy kept Wood Wailers at bay while Zozo and her party tracked down Lydaea, allowing Lily to be rescued without the party being forced to be taken into their custody.

Most recently, Azzy contacted Zo and company with an offer - to help her build a new Cabaret called the Purple Orchid. Since Zozola was feeling greatly unappreciated at her current place of employment, she agreed.

Though Azzy and Zozola are hardly affectionate with each other, Zo sees Azzy as more than a teacher or benefactor. She sees her as a trusted friend - or what a family SHOULD be.

''[[Seselia Selia|Seselia Selia]]'' is a genius tinkerer employed by the Purple Orchid, whose manner of speaking can seem blunt and calculating, for which they did not get along at first. Moreover, Lalamune Zazamune's sudden declaration of love for the girl threw Zola for a loop, and she is struggling to understand this budding romance happening under her roof.

However, Zola made a number of concessions when she was stunned by the sincerity of Zaz's confession, including giving up her aethersight spectacles for moons so that he could have another pair made for Seselia. She also made attempts to reach her on her level, and their relationship seemed to be getting better...

Until Zola realized that Selia is a Monetarist sympathizer - not out of malice, but out of sheer ignorance. Though she realizes this, she sees her former self in Selia's naivety - which only causes her to judge Selia more harshly.

However, on the same night that Lalamune violated Zozola's trust, he also cheated on Seselia, and Zo felt true sympathy for Seselia for the first time, and made a legitimate attempt to reach out to her. In this attempt, she realized how lovely Seselia actually was, and secretly hopes to grow even closer to her.

''[[Lalamune Zazamune|Lalamune Zazamune]]'', or 'Zaz', is an individual that Zozola had some trouble understanding at first. He is a scholar, first and foremost, and met Zozola while they both worked at the Whispered Wish. From the start, they got along quite well, as Zozola was incredibly impressed with his knowledge in all things aether and the ease with which he would speak to people.

However, as they got to know each other, his flirtacious advances caused her to panic. He ''was'' one of the few men she was attracted to, but she did not know how to navigate such feelings, having only known the affections of women in her past. He of course backed off as any respectable gentleman would, but as they got to know each other better, that brick wall started to be whittled away bit by bit. He was also involved in her rescue, and his kind words to her and genuine expression of emotion caused the remaining barrier between them to shatter.

However, this was not to last. Things have been complicated since they had one major falling out many moons ago, and a number of smaller conflicts since then. She still cares for him greatly, but will she ever fully trust him the way she did before?

</div>
Zuzurito is what one might call a 'hard-ass'. Though he has gifted his daughter everything she could want in her young life, he cannot stand not being able to control her. During her childhood, stepping out of line tended to resolve in a barrage of verbal abuse, and that did not change as she got older. He sees his daughter as his property, and her choice of profession infuriates him.

Upon his daughter's arrest, and learning some of the terrible things that his family has done to her, he is starting to realize that not all that glitters is gold, and though he feels like he cannot do much, he risked his neck to get clues to his daughter in the wake of Nanasa's murder.

</div>
While Nanasa is not quite as abusive as her husband, she enables it, seeing nothing wrong with his behavior. She could not understand why her daughter would not simply submit for the betterment of the Company. Zozola has tried to get through to Nanasa multiple times, but it has never gone well. Until recently.

Nanasa was diagnosed with a fatal illness, and when Zozola learned of this, she wrote Nanasa a farewell letter to make peace. While Nanasa resented this letter at first, she slowly began to realize how in the wrong she had truly been. She changed her will in secret so that Zozola would get a significant inheritance upon her death. She then reached out via a missive of her own, forgiving her daughter and granting her her blessing, and requesting that they meet in Costa Del Sol - and that Zozola bring Lily with her.

Sadly, however, the meeting never was to be, for Nanasa was poisoned before Zozola and Lily made it there...and Zozola was subsequently charged with the crime.

</div>
Before her rebellion against her family interests, Zozola had very few interactions with Lolorito, but everything came to a head when she began to pursue her own interests. When she came to him to negotiate, he demanded that she agree to indentured servitude to earn her freedom from family obligations, then directed his secretary, Koyano Mihata, to 'break' her. When Koyano let slip his involvement with such unsavory practices, he had Zozola sent to Gyr Abania to work at the Saltery there and eventually die in an 'accident'. She was rescued, and subsequently revealed that she had kept a dossier of blackmail material, advising her dear cousin to let her be. She has not heard from him since, but there is no doubt in her mind that he will retaliate someday.

''Diana Galini'' is a fellow practitioner of the Red that used to work alongside Zozola at the Whispered Wish. Though they are not yet close, Zozola appreciate's Diana's no-nonsense attitude and ever-so-blunt wisdom. She sees Diana as a steadfast ally, and they have worked together a number of times to solve the various problems that have come their way. Diana was gracious enough to accept a Security post at the Purple Orchid, and has been instrumental at keeping it safe. She occasionally dispenses wisdom that Zozola may not want in the moment but appreciates in time.

</div>
''[[Koyano Mihata|Koyano Mihata]]'', one of Lolorito's secretaries, was charged with the task of 'breaking' Zozola, and what she did was just that. She physically abused her, taunted her by going to see her friends, and ensured that Zozola knew that she was worthless and disgusting. During a visit to the Wish to meet her friends and taunt her charge, she was ambushed by Daerin, Zaz, Lily, and La'nette. It was during this altercation that she let slip that Lolorito was behind their friend's disappearance - a fact that she thought they already knew. When Lolorito found out, he ousted her completely, and she gave up everything she knew about Zozola's whereabouts, allowing her friends to mount a rescue.

Since then, she has been keeping an eye on Zozola from a distance, and, more recently, assited with the rescue of La'nette Eve in exchange for a Sharlayan recommendation from Lalamune Zazamune.

However, I have the following requests:
# Please keep IC and OOC interactions separate in ''/say'' by keeping OOC comments within double parentheses ((like so!)).
# Romance is fine if it develops naturally, but please respect that Zozola is polyamorous and will be open to multiple relationships at once. And on that note, please respect that IC and OOC are separate!
# Please clear Zozola's involvement with any huge storyline with me OOC before dragging her into it. I am typically open to big storylines, though, so don't be afraid to message me!
# While Zozola does work in adult-only spaces, please do not randomly proposition me for ERP. That's sexual harrassment, kids! I will blacklist you and report you to my FC.
# DDLG/Lolicon/Age Play Fetishists - DO NOT INTERACT.

Thank you! ♥️

General Information
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
A distant cousin of Lord Lolorito and the child of wealthy merchants, Zozola Zola has lived a comfortable life until about a turn ago. When her parents cut her off financially, she sought out her own path in life - a freedom she has since embraced in spite of her family's many failed attempts to control her. Zozola is a performer and an adventurer, as well as a Director for Legatum Mysteria.
</div>

<p style="background-color: #595959; border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding: .2em; border: none; font-variant: small-caps; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-size: 1.7em; line-height: 2em; color: #fff;">
Appearance
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Zozola is quite short, even for a lalafell, standing at a solid 2'10". She is also quite chubby. Her Ul'dahn brown skin is soft and supple, and there is a constant blush to her cheeks. Her long wavy hair is a pale mint green in color, with pink highlights on the tips. She usually wears her hair in braids and ponytails. She has striking lilac dunesfolk eyes.

She is often seen draped in pastel colors or jewel tones. Despite her soft cute appearance and aesthetic, her body language often betrays her true salty nature.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Mannerisms</p>
Zozola generally approaches all social situations with a polite demeanor. This often proves to be a bit of a falsehood in uncomfortable social situations however, wherein she remains polite but her body language betrays her discomfort entirely. She is not very good at making new friends, though once she is close to someone she becomes incredibly comfortable with them.

Zozola loves to eat, drink, and be merry with those she is most comfortable with. Her flirtaciousness toward those she is especially close to is omnipresent as she loves to get a rise out of those she would be intimate with, but when they flirt back she tends to get incredibly flustered.

She is rather insecure, and she tends to take it personally when she is overlooked, rejected, or condescended to. When such a thing happens, the mask of politeness dissolves and her true bitterness is plainly visible to the world.


<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Philosophy & Ideals</p>
Zozola believes in the autonomy of the individual above all else. This idealized freedom is everpresent in her life, bordering on hedonism at times. This concept expands to a romantic ideal as well - believing in the ability to love multiple people at once...but also in the responsibility that comes with it.

She cares deeply for her friends, especially those who have seen her at her lowest. She can be rather selfish, but if it is for her closest friends, she will do just about anything to protect them.

She wishes to define her own fate, even if it means grasping it from the hands of the Twelve themselves.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Personality Tidbits</p>
<ul style="width: 100%; list-style: none; margin-left: 0; margin-top: 1.2em;">
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">While attracted to ''some'' men, Zozola is typically uncomfortable and annoyed by them - with few exceptions. She largely prefers the company of women, in both romantic and platonic contexts.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">Due to her insecurities and inherent awkwardness, Zozola struggles a bit in social situations, especially large groups. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">She despises being condescended to, ignored, and infantilized because of her size above most things. Look down on her at your own peril. </li>
<li style="background-color: #e5e5e5; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #595959; margin: 5px;">Despite being privileged in her youth, it takes very little to make Zo feel satisfied with her circumstances. She sees good food, good drink, a comfortable place to rest your head, and good company as the pillars of a good life. She is not very assertive, and while she likes gil as much as the next person, she prefers freedom over wealth.</li>

<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Resilient - Zozola is more resilient than she gives herself credit for. Even under the worst circumstances, she finds a way through it.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Intelligent - She has some manner of higher general education, and despite her lack of understanding of the world, she tends to pick up on new ideas quickly....most of the time.</li>
<li style="background-color: #e1eae4; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #52775f; margin: 5px;">Creative - A singer and musician, Zozola is quite creative. This creativity sometimes flows into her interests outside of the arts. </li>

<li style="background-color: #efdede; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #964b4b; margin: 5px;">Self-Centered - Her new life of hard work does not entirely discount how spoiled she was growing up.

<li style="background-color: #efdede; padding: .5em; border-radius: 5px; border-left: 10px solid #964b4b; margin: 5px;">Stubborn - When she gets an idea into her head, it is incredibly difficult to sway her otherwise - especially if it relates to her ideals.</li>

Early Life
</p>

<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc;">Childhood</p>
Zozola was born in Ul'dah to Zuzurito Lalarito and Nanasa Nasa. As the only child of a wealthy family of merchants directly connected to the Syndicate through its leader, her distant cousin Lolorito Nanarito, she grew up with everything she could have wanted. She had the best private education that Ul'dahn gil could buy, and every possible luxury that a wealthy young girl could afford.

She had a small number of friends growing up. Her main circle was a group of three young lalafellin girls - Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo - and a highlander girl - Astri - whose father had relocated to Ul'dah after making his fortune on the high seas. They shared the same tutor and attended the same events as children, so Zozola had grown quite attached to them. She trusted them more than anything.

<p style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps; border-bottom: 2px solid #cccccc; margin-top: 1em;">Adolescence</p>
As Zozola blossomed into a vibrant young lady, her attachment to her female friends took on another form. While her friends were discussing their crushes on the boys they met at these high-class social events, Zo was impossibly attracted to the girls she grew up with.

When she thought of men, her immediate association was her verbally abusive father, or the scumbags who would catcall her even as a teenager. When she thought of women, she thought of the relative safety of her circle of friends. Her crushes were not at all subtle, and when they were all 17 summers of age, they called her out on it one night over a stolen bottle of whiskey. At first they jokingly threatened to out her to her parents, but in one-on-one interactions with Zozola each of them gave into their own inner curiosity.

Later, Tutumo and Fufuga would say that it was just a phase for them, or that those intimate times together somehow didn't count because she was a woman. Yuyusi went a step further and blamed the alcohol, weaving a narrative that Zozola was some kind of predator - despite the fact that it was Zozola who was frequently the most drunk...and Zozola who was terrified to initiate anything for fear of rejection. Of the four of them, only Astri seemed to acknowledge those moments for what they were, and while they never defined their relationship, they remained especially close.

Zozola needed a confidante in those days - it was the time of her life where her father Zuzurito's verbal abuse was the worst. He would often take his frustrations with work out on her - and the fact that as she grew up she became more difficult for him to control absolutely terrified him. Nanasa, meanwhile, had a hands-off approach, essentially enabling Zuzurito's behavior in the hopes that it would keep Zozola in line.

Meanwhile, Zo poured herself into the arts, her very favorite part of her well-to-do education and the only thing that allowed her to process the turmoil in her heart. She studied art and literature and participated in some theatrical productions, but her biggest love was singing. She had the very best voice teacher in all of Ul'dah, and became rather comfortable with performing on stage as a young woman.

<p style="background-color: #595959; border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding: .2em; border: none; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-size: 1.7em; line-height: 2em; color: #fff; font-variant: small-caps;">
Adulthood
</p>
<div style="background-color: #fff; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 1em; margin-top: 0;">
Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo each married wealthy men in Ul'dahn high society and essentially stepped out of Zozola's life, aside from a meeting at a bar once per moon. Astri did not marry, but she did join the Immortal Flames to serve the country she loved, and was rarely seen after that. Meanwhile, Zozola felt directionless. Her creative skills were nurtured by her education, but they would not help her in the real world - or so her father seemed to think. Her parents insisted that she take on some role within the East Aldenard Trading Company, to continue its legacy within the family and earn the respect of their family patriarch, Lord Lolorito Nanarito of the Ul'dahn Syndicate.

But Zozola was not interested in being a merchant. She longed for something more in her life, but she could not put her finger on what. For a number of years, she lived off her family's fortune, content to float aimlessly through life.

Until her parents cut her off financially.

This was supposed to be a simple lesson. Cut her off financially and she will realize her place and do as she is told. However, that did not quite go as planned. Zozola started seeking out other sources of income. She had heard that many merchants within the company would spend their gil at the Whispered Wish, so she set off, determined to find a new way to live.

It was in the pursuit of this alternate way to live that she met Daerin Roda, a host and courtesan of the Whispered Wish. Daerin was the first person to see something in Zozo other than a spoiled brat. She encouraged her to join the Whispered Wish as an employee, and taught her some valuable lessons on how to make gil on her own. And so she began actively pursuing her own fortune and a new lot in life. Her parents didn't like that. If she would not work for the benefit of the company, she would marry someone within the company.

One night, as she was on her way to visit the Wish, she was intercepted by a number of Brass Blades. Her parents shipped her off to Kugane to meet a man that they had picked out for her. His name was Hancock Fitzgerald, a smarmy merchant who worked at the Ruby Bazaar - the Kugane offices of the East Aldenard Trading Company. She shared one meal with the man and her parents before disappearing via aetheryte and returning to Ul'dah to continue the pursuit of her own interests.

Soon enough, she auditioned to become an Entertainer at the Whispered Wish, and was brought aboard.

In the time since joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola began to cut a new path for herself, having embraced both coworkers and clients in friendship. She came into her own as a Host, gradually becoming more and more comfortable with a wider variety of people. Though she never was granted the opportunity to entertain...

It was around this time that her moonly meeting with her childhood friends took place. At this meeting, Fufuga, Yuyusi, and Tutumo made clear their opinions of Zozola's new career, humiliating her in front of the entire bar. As she stormed out, she ran into Astri, who took the furious and heartbroken Zo to her apartment. They spent the evening in each others' arms, but then Zo discovered invitations on Astri's desk. Invitations, to her wedding to a Flame Captain. Zozola confronted Astri about the impending nuptials and cheating on her fiance, but Astri didn't seem to see anything wrong with it. After all, it doesn't count with a woman, right? Heartbroken and devastated to know that her last remaining childhood friend ''still'' did not understand her, Zozola stormed out.

She hasn't seen any of her so-called childhood friends since.

Shortly after that painful exchange, Zozola began training as a Red Mage under Azzy Crannach, and gradually learned to defend herself utilizing the Red. This was due to her new friends at the Wish utilizing a number of different skillsets..and she wanted to be useful. Learning this new skill filled her with a new sense of purpose.

Moreover, a frequent customer at the Whispered Wish, Lily Nibelung, had become a frequent source of comfort and levity in Zo's day to day life - mending the wounds inflicted upon her heart. She did not realize it at the time, but she was starting to fall in love... and she began to feel as though she was taking control of her life.

But it wasn't enough. Someone within the East Aldenard Trading Company began to interfere with Daerin's business. After a particularly bad night following this news, Zozola was determined to speak to her cousin Lolorito and put a stop to this nonsense and protect her friends from retaliation - even if it meant walking away from the life she had chosen, for good.

Lolorito was determined to humble Zozola before allowing her to live freely, and thus she entered an agreement of indentured servitude. She spent a number of weeks working as a handmaiden in Lolorito's estate, humiliated and abused by his secretary Koyano Mihata, before news of his involvement in such an unsavory practice started to get out. In order to cover up his involvement in all this, he stripped Koyano of all privileges and had Zozola sent to the Saltery in Gyr Abania, where she would meet her end in a horrible "accident". Before she made it there, however, her friends intercepted her escort, rescuing her and giving her the strength to stand up for herself once more. She threatened Lolorito with some blackmail material she had gathered during her time in his estate, and returned home to the Goblet.

Recovery from her ordeal with Lord Lolorito proved rather difficult, and that recovery was punctuated by her growing attraction and yearning for the kind Lily Nibelung, who grew further and further from her in the weeks since Zozola's return. Lily had turned out to be under the influence of the voidsent Lydaea, who eventually succeeded in possessing Lily. During the weeks of planning and worrying that lead up to Lily's eventual rescue from the clutches of this voidsent parasite, Zozola was forced to come to terms with her feelings for the hyur woman, even going so far as to commission Aneth Ralene to craft a lily pendant of moonstone that she would later gift Lily as a symbol of her love.

In the meantime, she met Mynne Rosalia, Lily's pupil, who assisted them (after some negotiation) in tracking Lily to Urth's Fount, where Zozola confronted Lydaea, with the help of Daerin Roda, Lalamune Zazamune, and La'nette Eve. After a significant struggle that almost cost everyone their lives, they eventually freed Lily from her grasp.

Lily had a long recovery under Zozola's watchful eye, and when she awakened, Zozola confessed her love, not wanting to miss another chance. Lily reciprocated her feelings, to Zo's absolute relief, and so their romance began.

This was not to say that their struggles were over, however. Her friend La'nette was compelled by a jutsu to return to her clan, and thus another rescue would be underway. Meanwhile, however, tensions were beginning to build with Zozola's employer. In the time since she joined, was never granted the opportunity to use her musical skills to entertain, and she was often overlooked and underappreciated. This tension began to slowly build - and she was far from the only person struggling. Daerin and Lalamune were also struggling with Wish management for a number of reasons, and the tension continued to build while they fought to retrieve their friend.

With La'nette returned to them, Zozola, Lily, Lalamune, Daerin, and La'nette decided to go on a week-long vacation to Costa Del Sol. During this vacation, the three employed by the Whispered Wish decided to walk away from the brothel for good, and shortly thereafter they were contacted by Azzy Crannach herself, who announced that she would be building a cabaret called the Purple Orchid. She offered each of them positions, and Zo became the Director of Entertainment for the business.

The Orchid celebrated their first Open House a few short moons later. Immediately afterwards, Zozola was approached by Mynne, who gave her a note in some kind of code indicating that someone intended to take Lily away. Not knowing the context, and feeling pressure from Mynne to keep this quiet, Zozola kept it a secret, and it ate away at her for moons. The note was addressed to a 'Havarr', and when one of the Orchid's patrons - Anastasia Tigerlily - happened to drop that name, Zozola panicked. Lalamune instructed Zo and Lily to go hide in the Security Office while he went to confront Anastasia...and then he disappeared.

After a long stretch of time, eventually the Orchid was able to determine Zaz's whereabouts...where he was, in fact, willingly disgusing himself as an ally of the Lambs of Dalamud to unlock certain secrets of Amdapor. After a brief possession, Zaz was returned to them.

Zozola's father, Zuzurito Lalarito, came to the Orchid and spoke with Lily and Elia Nelia, informing them that Nanasa Nasa, Zozola's mother, was ill and would likely be passing away within a half a turn. Zozola, of course, did not take this well. She could not figure out if this was some elaborate ploy to get her back under the thumb of her family or if it was true. As a compromise, she sent a heartfelt letter to Nanasa as a final goodbye, and to explain her reasoning.

She received a response two moons later. Nanasa was going to forgive Zo, and moreover, she would be sneaking off to Costa Del Sol to see the ocean one last time and requested that Zozola come and bring Lily with her. Hesitantly, Zozola decided to do just that...only to discover Nanasa already dead - her wine poisoned by an unknown person. Zozola of course was immediately accused of the crime. It was not until an investigation brought information to light that one Edam Bellveil was responsible for the crime that she was freed of suspicion. But like so many other things, that, too, was complicated. Edam Bellveil carried out the assassination...at the behest of Koyano Mihata - Zo's torturer - who had slowly earned some semblance of trust by a number of members of the Orchid.

Koyano's involvement was not obvious at first, and it caused a rift between many people involved - including Daerin and La'nette, who ended up splitting ultimately as a result of this friction. But this culminated when Koyano ''killed'' Daerin...and then Lily brought her back to life.

Thus was the start of a transformation for Lily. She would appear as a woman made of pure white light. Then her memories started to go. She lost the past turn of memories, yet still she fell in love with Zozola yet again. In spite of this, worry for Lily's condition caused Zo to look toward the stars for guidance. Perhaps she could learn a way to reverse this thread of fate for Lily... but ultimately she was unable to do anything - learning that Lily is the seed of the World Tree, Yggdrasil...and Daerin, whom now holds a piece of Lily inside her...is the Tree's Mana Knight.

This was a fate that she was unable to change, as much as she tried. For as Lily threatened to sprout, Daerin agreed to be the immortal Guardian of the tree in exchange for Lily's normal, Hyurian life. Zo was filled with righteous fury. How dare Nophica take what does not belong to her - the life of Lily Nibelung - only to negotiate for it?!

However, before she parted ways with the Goddess Nophica...she was given a revelation. This era was coming to an end. A new Calamity was coming. Despite her feelings for the goddess, Zozola took that information to heart - and it became a driving force to changing their company, from the Purple Orchid Cabaret...to a new organization called Legatum Mysteria.

Zozola is trying to find a way to accept Lily's enthusiastic dedication to Nophica, while also delving deeper and deeper into the time aspects of Astrology. She is on the cusp of discovering something new...but will she be able to harness it once she finds it?

With unrest coming to a head in Ul'dah and so many friends and loved ones in danger...as well as the Calamity brought to her attention by Nophica... Zozola is not finding any relief to her anxiety any time soon.

Shortly after joining the Whispered Wish, Zozola met ''[[Lily Nibelung|Lily Nibelung]]'', a client at the famed Wishing Hour. Zozola was very new to her job, and extremely nervous, but Lily and her friend Bhaldbyrm put her at ease. They hit it off right away, and in short order they had become fast friends. This was of course in part due to Lady Tsyring's Mystery Shot, which caused the two women to become fascinated with each other, and thus they got to know each other rather quickly! Though the shot's effects were temporary, their interest in each other remained.

As Wishing Hours came and went, they would spend even more time together, bonding over drinks and lengthy conversations. Lily has since become one of the closest people in Zozola's life. It did not take Zozola long to completely fall for the hyur woman, and she one of the biggest reasons Zozola turned herself over to Lord Lolorito. She couldn't bear the thought of Lily, with whom she had spent so much time, being targeted by her family.

Lily, too, was involved in her rescue, and was at her side to help her recover...at least until she was accosted and eventually possessed by a voidsent named Lydaea.

Zozola was initially told that Lily had died, which shattered her, but she was certain that something darker was behind Lily's disappearance. As she made plans for her rescue, she eventually had to come to terms with her feelings. She joined Lalamune Zazamune, Daerin Roda, and La'nette Eve in rescuing her beloved and forcibly tearing the voidsent from Lily's body and destroying it. With Lily finally returned, they finally confessed their feelings to each other, and have been happy lovebirds ever since.

Lily has been nothing but supportive of Zo's passions and aspirations and is always willing to help her when she needs it. They stood together through the temporary loss of La'nette (who they successfully rescued) and Zozola's move to establish the Purple Orchid. Though Zozola has recently felt compelled to keep a dangerous secret from her hyurian lover, in time honesty prevailed, and they mean to face the trials and tribulations of the world together, as a team.

Zozola met ''[[Daerin Roda|Daerin Roda]]'' shortly after being cut off from her family. Despite Zozola's self-centered nature, Daerin seemed to see something in her, and took her on as some sort of protégé. Daerin taught her how to make gil on her own through aquisitions and trade, and encouraged her to pursue a new life at the Whispered Wish. Daerin even connected her to Azzy Crannach, who would go on to train Zozola in the art of the Red.

When Daerin's business was affected by Zozola's family, it was a major incentive for her to turn herself in to her cousin Lord Lolorito. Daerin led the charge in rescuing Zozola when she was being taken to the Saltery, and even now she looks after her dear dunesfolk friend.

Daerin is incredibly important to her, not only as a mentor, but as a close friend and confidante.

''[[Mynne Rosalia|Mynne Rosalia]]'' is Lily's pupil. You would think that their mutual connection to Lily would inherently mean that Mynne and Zozola would get along, right? Wrong. After Lily was taken, Mynne offered her services of tracking her mentor...for a price. After antagonizing Zozola and shaming her for her wealthy background, Mynne agreed to do the work for a significant amount of gil as well as to have Zozola submit herself as her courtesan for one night.

Mynne was successful in tracking Lily. She even helped the group return home before they were caught by Wood Wailers. But in Zozola's every attempt to be sincere with Mynne, the miqo'te threw it back in her face.

That is...until recently. Mynne came to Zozola with intelligence about a threat to Lily Nibelung, and they have tenatively begun working together, Mynne's hard exterior seeming to soften somewhat. Though Zozola doubts they will ever be friends, there is a begrudging respect there. Moreover, Mynne's desire to act against the Ul'dahn Syndicate has piqued her interest.

</div>
La'nette is a maid who works for Lily Nibelung. Zozola was unsure what to make of the ever-selfless La'nette when they first met. She was particularly confused at her ever-present attitude of servitude and her apparent closeness to Lily.

However, in time, La'nette began to grow on Zozola, despite Zo's concern that La'nette was taking her role as a servant too seriously, which even culminated in injury. When Lily was taken, they bonded over her disappearance, but despite that, Zo continued to emphasize that one's job does not define who they are, and gets a bit frustrated when La'nette takes things too far.

When La'nette was compelled to return to her clan, Zozola was on the front lines to bring her home. Zozola has since been supportive of La'nette's relationship with Daerin and her work in the Ishgardian Restoration, but not everything is sunshine and rainbows between them of late.

Zozola met Bhaldbyrm when she met Lily. A gentle giant, his kind shyness disarmed her, allowing her to feel at ease. She bonded with him early on on their mutual appreciation of lovely ladies, and she assisted Lily in encouraging the shy lad to pursue a courtesan he was particularly drawn to.

In the time since they met, she has looked on Bhaldbyrm with familial affection, and has ever tried to encourage him to go after what he wants - even when his shyness and anxiety gets the best of him. During her rescue, Bhaldbyrm held off reinforcements, allowing the others to retrieve her safely.

He has since been ever a steadfast ally in all things, even lending his cooking skills to the Purple Orchid.

Daerin connected Zozola to Azzy, a cantankerous plainsfolk Red Mage, who took on Zozola as a pupil and taught her the ways of the Red. While a far cry from the matronly mentor Zozola would have preferred to work with, she taught her well - albeit in a rather unconventional manner. Azzy was very hard on Zozola, but earned her respect.

Unbeknownst to Zozola, Azzy was in part responsible for information getting out about her indentured servitude, which allowed her other friends to rescue her. When they did so, Daerin provided Zozola with a new Red Mage uniform, as a gift from Azzy.

Azzy kept Wood Wailers at bay while Zozo and her party tracked down Lydaea, allowing Lily to be rescued without the party being forced to be taken into their custody.

Most recently, Azzy contacted Zo and company with an offer - to help her build a new Cabaret called the Purple Orchid. Since Zozola was feeling greatly unappreciated at her current place of employment, she agreed.

Though Azzy and Zozola are hardly affectionate with each other, Zo sees Azzy as more than a teacher or benefactor. She sees her as a trusted friend - or what a family SHOULD be.

</div>
''[[Seselia Selia|Seselia Selia]]'' is a genius tinkerer employed by the Purple Orchid, whose manner of speaking can seem blunt and calculating, for which they did not get along at first. Moreover, Lalamune Zazamune's sudden declaration of love for the girl threw Zola for a loop, and she is struggling to understand this budding romance happening under her roof.

However, Zola made a number of concessions when she was stunned by the sincerity of Zaz's confession, including giving up her aethersight spectacles for moons so that he could have another pair made for Seselia. She also made attempts to reach her on her level, and their relationship seemed to be getting better...

Until Zola realized that Selia is a Monetarist sympathizer - not out of malice, but out of sheer ignorance. Though she realizes this, she sees her former self in Selia's naivety - which only causes her to judge Selia more harshly.

However, on the same night that Lalamune violated Zozola's trust, he also cheated on Seselia, and Zo felt true sympathy for Seselia for the first time, and made a legitimate attempt to reach out to her. In this attempt, she realized how lovely Seselia actually was, and secretly hopes to grow even closer to her.

''[[Lalamune Zazamune|Lalamune Zazamune]]'', or 'Zaz', is an individual that Zozola had some trouble understanding at first. He is a scholar, first and foremost, and met Zozola while they both worked at the Whispered Wish. From the start, they got along quite well, as Zozola was incredibly impressed with his knowledge in all things aether and the ease with which he would speak to people.

However, as they got to know each other, his flirtacious advances caused her to panic. He ''was'' one of the few men she was attracted to, but she did not know how to navigate such feelings, having only known the affections of women in her past. He of course backed off as any respectable gentleman would, but as they got to know each other better, that brick wall started to be whittled away bit by bit. He was also involved in her rescue, and his kind words to her and genuine expression of emotion caused the remaining barrier between them to shatter.

However, this was not to last. Things have been complicated since they had one major falling out many moons ago, and a number of smaller conflicts since then. She still cares for him greatly, but will she ever fully trust him the way she did before?

</div>
Zuzurito is what one might call a 'hard-ass'. Though he has gifted his daughter everything she could want in her young life, he cannot stand not being able to control her. During her childhood, stepping out of line tended to resolve in a barrage of verbal abuse, and that did not change as she got older. He sees his daughter as his property, and her choice of profession infuriates him.

Upon his daughter's arrest, and learning some of the terrible things that his family has done to her, he is starting to realize that not all that glitters is gold, and though he feels like he cannot do much, he risked his neck to get clues to his daughter in the wake of Nanasa's murder.

</div>
While Nanasa is not quite as abusive as her husband, she enables it, seeing nothing wrong with his behavior. She could not understand why her daughter would not simply submit for the betterment of the Company. Zozola has tried to get through to Nanasa multiple times, but it has never gone well. Until recently.

Nanasa was diagnosed with a fatal illness, and when Zozola learned of this, she wrote Nanasa a farewell letter to make peace. While Nanasa resented this letter at first, she slowly began to realize how in the wrong she had truly been. She changed her will in secret so that Zozola would get a significant inheritance upon her death. She then reached out via a missive of her own, forgiving her daughter and granting her her blessing, and requesting that they meet in Costa Del Sol - and that Zozola bring Lily with her.

Sadly, however, the meeting never was to be, for Nanasa was poisoned before Zozola and Lily made it there...and Zozola was subsequently charged with the crime.

</div>
Before her rebellion against her family interests, Zozola had very few interactions with Lolorito, but everything came to a head when she began to pursue her own interests. When she came to him to negotiate, he demanded that she agree to indentured servitude to earn her freedom from family obligations, then directed his secretary, Koyano Mihata, to 'break' her. When Koyano let slip his involvement with such unsavory practices, he had Zozola sent to Gyr Abania to work at the Saltery there and eventually die in an 'accident'. She was rescued, and subsequently revealed that she had kept a dossier of blackmail material, advising her dear cousin to let her be. She has not heard from him since, but there is no doubt in her mind that he will retaliate someday.

''Diana Galini'' is a fellow practitioner of the Red that used to work alongside Zozola at the Whispered Wish. Though they are not yet close, Zozola appreciate's Diana's no-nonsense attitude and ever-so-blunt wisdom. She sees Diana as a steadfast ally, and they have worked together a number of times to solve the various problems that have come their way. Diana was gracious enough to accept a Security post at the Purple Orchid, and has been instrumental at keeping it safe. She occasionally dispenses wisdom that Zozola may not want in the moment but appreciates in time.

''[[Koyano Mihata|Koyano Mihata]]'', one of Lolorito's secretaries, was charged with the task of 'breaking' Zozola, and what she did was just that. She physically abused her, taunted her by going to see her friends, and ensured that Zozola knew that she was worthless and disgusting. During a visit to the Wish to meet her friends and taunt her charge, she was ambushed by Daerin, Zaz, Lily, and La'nette. It was during this altercation that she let slip that Lolorito was behind their friend's disappearance - a fact that she thought they already knew. When Lolorito found out, he ousted her completely, and she gave up everything she knew about Zozola's whereabouts, allowing her friends to mount a rescue.

Since then, she has been keeping an eye on Zozola from a distance, and, more recently, assited with the rescue of La'nette Eve in exchange for a Sharlayan recommendation from Lalamune Zazamune.

</div>
For a time, Zozola Zola was charged with the murder of her affluent mother, Nanasa Nasa. Though her innocence has been proven, it was quite the scandal, and a number of Monetarists still think she is guilty.

</div>
Zozola Zola used to be a host and entertainer at the Whispered Wish, and was often present at their famed Wishing Hour. As one of the few lalafells employed by the Whispered Wish, you could easily recognize her from any previous visits to the establishment a turn or so ago.

</div>
During her apprenticeship, you may have witnessed Zozola training under Azzy Crannach. Now that she has surpassed her teacher, Zozola may or may not be in a position to take on students of her own.

In her adolescence, Zozola would sing beautiful songs at various festivals and high-class events in Ul'dah. You may recognize her from these early life performances.

I am open to all RP backgrounds! Feel free to walkup if you see me out and about in the world with the RP tag on!

However, I have the following requests:
# Please keep IC and OOC interactions separate in ''/say'' by keeping OOC comments within double parentheses ((like so!)).
# Romance is fine if it develops naturally, but please respect that Zozola is polyamorous and will be open to multiple relationships at once. And on that note, please respect that IC and OOC are separate!
# Please clear Zozola's involvement with any huge storyline with me OOC before dragging her into it. I am typically open to big storylines, though, so don't be afraid to message me!
# While Zozola does work in adult-only spaces, please do not randomly proposition me for ERP. That's sexual harrassment, kids! I will blacklist you and report you to my FC.
# DDLG/Lolicon/Age Play Fetishists - DO NOT INTERACT.

Thank you! ♥️
