<div style="font-size: 12px">'''Liliana Nazareth''' ''(Li-lee-ah-nuh Nah-zuh-re-th)'' is a light-hearted Midlander with an almost abrasive sense of love and justice, right and wrong and an overwhelming personal sense of guilt, even when she is not at fault. Hailing from the small hamlet of Aleport, where she was discovered five years hence just after the Calamity razed Eorzea, she recently relocated to Ul'dah to train with the sword. By all rights and reasons, Liliana is definitely considered a hero among the people, doing what she can during her training to help those in need.
 
−
 
 
−
<br><br>While not a Scion, Liliana does possess the [[Echo|Echo]] and is very sensitive to its affects. As an amnesiac, this makes it very difficult to discern whose memories are whose, and she ends up getting her stories mixed up quite often. </div>

===Appearance===
 
−
 
 
−
As if to add to her confidence issues, Liliana is taller than most Midlander women, and is as tall as a good majority of Midlander men! Adding to her height, Liliana possesses an impressively toned physique, which only serve to highlight the curves of her surprisingly and worrisome slender frame--with such characteristics, it's no wonder that she feels like an amazon! However, the warrioress is incredibly feminine or at least strives to be in the areas of her hair and face, making sure that her lightly tanned skin is smooth and radiant, even while most of it is covered by heavy padding or armored plates, or laden robes and boots. Though her hair is an odd, almost unnaturally grey in color, by definition the color of her hair is 'wheat', a go-between of blonde and brunette, and is perfectly straightened and is trained to frame a decent amount of her face, erring towards the right side. Larger portions of what would be considered her bangs as well are pulled back across the curvature of her skull, ending in a twisted braid that merely ornaments the rest of her straightened, shoulder-length locks.
 
  
−
When one spots Liliana, it is almost always in some sort of armored plating or heavy robes, both of which seem meticulously cared for and detailed with scrutiny. The only time Liliana sheds these clothes is when she is frequenting a tavern in any of the major city-states, where she sloughs the mantle of duty and dresses only in her adventuring clothes, the barest she would allow herself to get in front of people before her inferiority complex hits her like a runaway Goobbue.
+
==The Woman Known as Lily==
 +
'''Liliana Nazareth''', or '''Lily''' for short, is an Auri healer with a penchant for being a nosy worrywart, and a passion for salving the wounds of the injured. A prodigious mage, Lily's initial talents were healing in the form of conjury--however, with the Calamity taking away her Hearing ability and deafening her to the will of the Elementals, she took her talents to that of arcanima, spreading her proverbial wings and expanding her already quite broad educational horizons to boot.
  
−
===Behavior===
+
While normally not a fighter, she is energetic and sprightly--she has to be, in order to keep up with her fiancee, [[Garen Ashe]], and their adventuring guild/Free Company, the Fireborn. As such, she's taken on bits and pieces of certain martial arts styles, if only to keep herself fit enough to keep up with everyone, especially those more gung-ho than others. While not a fan of watching people push past their limits, Lily's hypocrisy shines bright as she does the exact opposite of what she implores to others--pushing herself until there is nothing left to push. To say that Lily is a walking contradiction of her own beliefs with others is not very far off the mark, but at least it is not in such an obnoxious way that it puts others off immediately--unless they catch her in the heat of the moment, that is.
  
−
Liliana, since her discovery and journey for the past five years, has long since opened up her emotional doors to others. She has become quite talkative and is quick to quip at a fellow adventurer about their fashion sense (among other things), and when around her closely-knit group of fellow nomads known as The Wanderers, almost every line out of her mouth is a jape of some sort. Infinitely more at ease, Liliana finds that there are times where she cannot even remember being shy or introverted.
+
===Personality===
 +
Lily is often polite and often courteous; even around her enemies she manages to remain cordial (even though she ends up biting down on her tongue quite often). She speaks warmly to most and friendly to all, and those close enough to call her friend or more are often the subject of her constant worrying over them, earning her the nickname of 'Mother Hen'. Indeed, her friends and loved ones give her eyebrows plenty of creases, but she does it out of love for them.  
  
−
However, even Liliana has her days. Sometimes, she is frightened by herself, spurned on by actions of her body that her mind cannot control. She loses herself at these times and speaks only when she finds the need to yell in anger, rushing along ahead of others and pushing herself to near-death. It is only a temporary affliction, and when it subsides she behaves as if she'd blacked out; becoming confused and afraid of the situation, and mostly, herself. She knows not why she does this, perhaps it is laden in her forgotten past; the only thing she knows for certain is that every time she comes to, she feels less and less like a Hyur and more like a monster.
+
The one time her personality does a switch is in battle. As a Lieutenant in the Maelstrom, she must be firm, commanding, and yet she is still not without compassion. She worries for her subordinates and would rather lose a battle to save more lives than win a battle and save none. To this end, she is known as one of the Maelstrom's finest strategists, rivaling her friend [[Thiji Higuri]], who presides with the Immortal Flames.

===General===
 
===General===
 +
In battle, Liliana is very tactical and is capable of thinking up quick-fix strategies in the moment. While not so much a frontline fighter, Lily's voice can still get projected over a field of battle, offering quick stratagems and warnings to her fellow teammates.
  
−
Liliana's various fighting styles all share one trait: to her, a battle is a dance, and she leads her partner with her weapon. No matter if she's taking point as the main cover, or if she's behind the front lines as a healer, Liliana never strays from danger and meets challenges head-on with both grace and fury. Still, there are subtle differences to how she behaves during combative situations, depending upon her class of choice at the time a battle starts, as well as the factor of her either being alone or accompanied by others.
+
===Scholar===
−
 
+
The deadliest weapon in Lily's arsenal is her vast library. Each tome has taught her not only how to spin and weave aetheric healing spells more effectively, but also how to craft more debilitating diseases and venoms to cripple her foes. Currently, she is carrying around a most peculiar, weathered tome, wherein she states that its contents are currently encrypted.
−
===Gladiator/Paladin===
 
−
 
 
−
A sword and shield are Liliana's truest of friends and where she feels most at home. With the handiwork of a Gladiator fueling her muscles and fighting spirit, Liliana charges into battle unafraid, trusting those she accompanies with her life and knowing they do the same with her. As a Gladiator (and furthermore, as a Paladin), she is a shining pinnacle of endurance and perseverance, going so far as to directly throw herself in an enemy's path to distract them away from another party member, be they ailing or not.
 
−
 
 
−
Be she Paladin or simply a Gladiator, Liliana shows surprising leadership skills, as if she were a general leading her troops into battle. Always at the forefront of every team, she is quick to give rallying speeches to her awaiting allies and is always the first to take point from either up close with her sword, or from a distance with a lob of her shield. During battles, she is like a storm herself, furiously slashing and dancing away from enemies with quick footwork, despite the heavy armor she is forced to don.
 
−
 
 
−
===Conjurer===
 
  
−
Even when foregoing her sword for a staff or wand, Liliana retains the leader-like qualities found as a Gladiator, though her compassionate personality shines like a star. Ever the diligent one, her eyes are always on the lookout for a wound to mend or an ailment to salve, uncaring if they are simply a passerby or one of her friends. Though forced to remain on the back lines of battle, Liliana always makes sure that her allies know she is there, offering a shield of Protect or a quick Cure spell when necessary.  
+
Her more famous tomes include:
 +
::* [http://xivdb.com/?item/2165/Pupil%27s-Leather-Grimoire| Pupil's Leather Grimoire]: Lily's first research tome, she carried this with her often. Though the book was entirely filled out already, she often scribbled cliffnotes where she could.
 +
::* [http://xivdb.com/?item/2177/Ars-Notoria| Ars Notoria]: One of her aesthetically favored tomes, Ars Notoria was written in old Ishgardian syntax and dialect, which made it somewhat difficult for her to read. Still, she managed at least a basic grasp of the concepts and kept it with her during her excavations of the Stone Vigil, matching her experiences to those within the pages.
 +
::* [http://xivdb.com/?item/2206/Garuda%27s-Embrace| Garuda's Embrace]/[http://xivdb.com/?item/8372/Embrace-of-the-Vortex| Embrace of the Vortex]: It was often joked that Lily's laughter could rival that of the Lady of the Vortex's. She didn't quite believe it, but she always did find some sort of...''pulling'' attraction to the female-portrayed Primals, Garuda and later on, Shiva.
 +
::* [http://xivdb.com/?item/2216/Allagan-Grimoire-of-Healing| Allagan Grimoire of Healing]: As an Allagan researcher, she was granted this book after her first successful excavation of the Binding Coil. She carries it with her when she is meeting with other, fellow researchers, as she feels it helps illustrate her points a bit better.
 +
::* [http://xivdb.com/?item/7832/Omnilex-Atma| Omnilex Atma, aka "The Journal"]: Lily's personal journal that her daughter, [[Ella Ashe|Ella]] had with her when she appeared in front of people and claimed she was from the future. At the time, Ella's version of the journal had been only compiled up to a certain point, but Lily has been making it a key point to write in it every day.
  
−
Still, healing with magic is not the only thing Liliana can do as a Conjurer. Taking her Weaving skills into mention, she uses her nimble fingers and handy needle to stitch up more grave wounds before administering heals, careful not to let anything scar if she can help it.  
+
===Black Mage===
 +
Lily always found solace at the Ossuary in Ul'dah, even during her fledgling Conjurer days when she had to take basic thaumaturgy training. However, she began to become more enthralled with the dark arts and study of the Void after the Calamity had taken from her her Listening ability, so after she was grounded in Ul'dah after the invasion of the Praetorium she doubled her efforts in her training; however, she kept it secret from Garen and the others, so they wouldn't be worried about her. After all, she had been tainting her aether with the Black! If only Garen and Fireborn knew about her fascination with the Void, she'd have to do a lot more than just explain herself....
  
 
===Lancer/Dragoon===
 
===Lancer/Dragoon===
 +
Lily's main form of exercise, she attempts to mimic the agility of Ishgardian dragoons with her every day routine. So far, with a little aetheric manipulation, she's managed to fool even herself into thinking she's a bonafide, real Dragoon of yore! Well, at least her daughter seems to be convinced that both of her parents are high-flying dragon knights.
  
−
Having recently been taught the ways of the lance by [[Paul_Desmond|Paul]], and further instructed by friends [[Kairo_Fujima|Kairo]] and [[Lanza_Razaul|Lanza]], Liliana is among the most emotionally unstable of Dragoons. She has no idea how to fully combat the dragon spirit that resides within her, as it feels like it is constantly combating something else. Still, Paul has at least complimented her on her lanceman skills, as she seems to be just at home now with the polearm as she does with the sword and shield.
+
===Gladiator/Paladin===
−
 
+
Adopting Garen's previous fighting style from back in the days before the Calamity, Lily is the farthest thing from a proper Paladin ''or'' gladiator. Though she favors footwork over raw defensive capabilities, she isn't without them--her mantra, ''"Be the mountain"'', has earned her the nickname of "The Stonewall Empress". However, it's been moons since anyone has seen her take up the blade, so it must be a farfetched rumor that crafted her that idiom.
−
However, Liliana is still very emotionally affected as a Dragoon, and the more she utilizes the strength of the Eye, the more abrasive she becomes. Though she knows that she will never be fully rid of the Eye's influence, she tries to steer clear of her training more often than not, for fear that her blossoming anger will come to physically harm someone she cares about.
 
  
 
==Tendencies==
 
==Tendencies==
 
===Likes===
 
===Likes===
−
::* Fruit tarts. She has a surprising obsession with them, to the point where it is surprising at how she keeps the weight off!
+
::* The knowledge that her and others' research has advanced Eorzean technology, even by just a small margin.
−
::* Ul'dahn nights. Compared to the daytime in the desert, nightfall is always crisp and chilly, and the lighted backdrop of Hustings Strip reminds her of something out of a romance novel. A close runner-up is the sky over Limsa Lominsa, at least at the Bismarck--she swears that you could view other demesne, the sky is so clear.
+
::* Reading. Obviously!
−
::* Fighting with honor. Those who fight with dirty tricks disgust her, as she believes in a fair fight.
+
::* Sweets--especially pastries!
−
::* Assisting others, even with the most menial of tasks. She finds great joy in helping others.
+
::* Exploring and excavating ruins--whether for science or the thrill, none can say.
−
::* Friends. Even as an amnesiac, somewhere deep in her heart, Liliana feels as though she's always cherished the idea of friendship.
+
::* She is currently enthralled with her new astroscope. She loves reading the stars!
−
::* Shipyards. She loves the history behind ships of all kinds, and it absolutely fascinates her to see what sort of strides in marine technology people have made over the years.
+
::* Lily (secretly) loves fashion and likes to wear many different outfits. However, her favorite ones still consist of her Maelstrom uniform, and the clothes she uses to excavate ruins in (DRG), both for the aesthetic pleasantries and for utility.
−
::* Finding the perfect spots to relax. The Apkallu Falls in Old Gridania and the springs by Southern Thanalan's Forgotten Springs are her most favorite locales by far. She also frequents Costa del Sol with friends, though she really uses this as an excuse to not partake in drinking the local specialty by her lonesome.
 
−
::* Emotions. She's fascinated by the ideas of love and friendship and strives to feel all aspects of it.
 
  
 
===Dislikes===
 
===Dislikes===
−
::* Cravens. Cowardice is one of the utmost disgusting traits.
+
::* Thalassophobia--she has a fear of being on the open ocean. She doesn't mind looking at it though, and wading in the shallow waters.
−
::* Being in hot areas for too long, at least only during the daytime. In areas like Thanalan and the Sagolii Desert, she finds the nighttime rather agreeable.
+
::* Garleans. Though, she understands the difference between patriotism and subjugation.
−
::* Being stuck for too long in the rain, while she's dressed in armor. It's more tolerable when she's dressed in her mere adventurer's clothes or robes.
+
::* Anything involving the consumption of dodo meat in any form.
−
::* The dreams and nightmares that plague her every sleeping moment. It's why she looks so disconcerted and disheveled in the mornings, and also why she's such a late sleeper.
+
::* Being in Mor Dhona--born of guilt from being unable to help the Sons of Saint Coinach during and after the Calamity, of whom she was a ward of for years.
−
::* Being teased for whatever reason, about certain traits of hers. While it's only playful teasing from her friends, the situations she gets put in does make her rather uncomfortable after a while.
+
::* The knowledge that the Maelstrom uses her absymal cooking as a form of torture--yet she continues to help out in that way, regardless!
−
::* Being put in awkward situations that make her question things that she's come to know as truth. As an amnesiac, she is especially susceptible to this.  
 
−
::* Garleans. To her, they are all bastard "black and reds", and they all deserve to die.
 
−
::* Miqo'te. While not all Miqo'te fall into this category (especially since a Seeker is her best friend), the mass majority of the race and how free they are with their virtue disgusts Lily; she feels that since they have so many partners, they don't understand the sanctity of sharing one's body. This also only applies to those who have left their tribe and use the Hyur-coined term 'harem mentality' against unaware young lads and lasses.
 
  
 
===Hobbies/Talents===
 
===Hobbies/Talents===
−
::* '''Seamstress''': Liliana is a talented seamstress, even using her needlework as a form of first aid for others.
+
::* Lily is handy with a saw, needle, and paring knife. She often mends Fireborn's clothing and makes Ella simple toys!
−
::* '''Alchemist''': Surprising even herself, Liliana has taken up alchemy with an almost natural passion, surpassing even her aptitude with the needle and thread.  
+
::* According to friends, Lily is quite the motivational speaker. If anyone is in need of a motivational pick-me-up, Lily is the go-to gal!
−
::* '''Studious''': Liliana loves to read, and is fascinated more about Eorzean history more than anything. She has been known to study every word about the Calamity--in hopes that it would shed some light on her past.
+
::* She is a master of illusion and misdirection, much like her mother was. Lily is able to craft glamour charms and weak Fantasia potions that are at least good for a temporary disguise.
−
::* '''Bardic Talents?''': It's been said that Lily can sing, though she insists on not being very good at it. Her friends have been very insistent that she take up formal training as a bard, but so far Lily has refused, as she is nowhere near as poetic as Paul or Lanza.
+
 
−
::* '''Powers of Observation''': Despite her obliviousness, Liliana is a powerful mind in terms of tactics and possesses keen observation skills; able to pick up on the slightest off noise in a person's voice or a gentle shift in body language. During battle, she is a precise attacker and can quickly make up for any holes in an attack strategy gone awry.
+
===Favorites===
 +
::* In no particular order, Lily's favorite colors are [http://xivdb.com/?item/5738/Dalamud-Red-Dye| Dalamud Red], [http://xivdb.com/?item/5783/Nophica-Green-Dye| Nophica Green], and [http://xivdb.com/?item/8750/Metallic-Blue-Dye| Metallic Blue]. She tries to incorporate these colors into her wardrobe as often as possible.
 +
::* If you leave Lily [http://xivdb.com/?item/4709/Apple-Tart| Apple Tarts], [http://xivdb.com/?item/4732/Crumpet| Crumpets], or [http://xivdb.com/?item/4683/Roasted-Nopales| Roasted Nopales], you're automatically her new best friend.
 +
::* Involving Lily in excavations of The Binding, Second, and Final Coils of Bahamut, Pharos Sirius, or Wanderer's Palace activate a truly "nerdy" side to her nature. One must be prepared to listen to her ramble for hours on end, or be extremely talented in tuning others out.
  
 
===Other===
 
===Other===
−
::* Liliana has an odd fixation on hair and eye colors that are out of the norm. It doesn't mean that she's necessarily attracted to the person themselves; Liliana would just simply stare and study to the point of being uncomfortable for the other person.
+
::* Liliana suffers from PTSD, and not all of it has been branched from the Battle of Carteneau. Her key defense mechanism is emotional shutdown, but it doesn't always work.
−
::* She is almost constantly pining over, being angry at, or being generally concerned for Kairo's welfare. This stems from the fact that he was the first person to recognize her, and has told her all of what he knows about her past, at least where he was concerned. She doesn't know nor understand why she has some form of deep-seated feelings for him, and she doesn't try to make sense of it. Rather, she just goes along with it, and hopes that all will be meted out in due time.
+
::* As a Warrior of Light and having been there at the raid on the Praetorium, Liliana has the Echo. However, she, like most others, can't control it; she doesn't get odd flashes of memories or anything from it either. It merely saves her from Primal tempering, and also helps her to understand foreign languages like Doman (since those with the Echo are masters of linguistics, as per the 1.0 storyline).
−
::* Her amnesia extends a lot farther than merely her life directly previous to being discovered in Eorzea. In fact, she's forgotten her life altogether, predating even her life in the 'mysterious world'.
 
−
::* While she wears a lot of it, pink is actually not Liliana's favorite color. It is simply something about the color itself that calms her. In fact, her favorite color is silver.
 
  
 
==Relationships==
 
==Relationships==
−
 
−
'''[[Paul Desmond|Paul Desmond]]''': Paul acquired his own space on this page, and in Lily's heart. He is the one who brought her back to the path of light and the ways of the Paladin, when she thought she had lost it all in a fit of depression that made her turn towards other arts, other paths of knowledge that appeared easier and lazy. He had shown her a world that she never thought to exist--a world of utter passion, of encompassing love and undying devotion. Thanks to him, Lily now knows the feeling of being truly wanted; he has helped her open up to the world, and to others, and has given her a steeled resolve, and a reason to lift her sword and brandish her shield against evil. Paul is her betrothed, and the love of her life--even if what lies in her past is something that may contradict this engagement of two souls, Lily will never stray from Paul's side, come Hellfire or Garleans.
 
−
 
 
===Family===
 
===Family===
−
Liliana is unsure of her family tree, due to the lack of knowledge of her past. However, she has come to know Brendt as family, a fatherly figure of sorts if ever there was one. He's been friendly enough to her, of course, especially with helping her journey to Ul'dah so that she may further train herself as a Gladiator, and she has vowed to somehow, some way, make it up to him.
 
−
 
−
She has had small jokes with Paul about what her parents must be or must have been like, but so far, she's no closer to the truth than she was when she began to ponder the idea of her family.
 
  
 
===Friends===
 
===Friends===
−
As Liliana has journeyed through Eorzea, she has had little time to make friends. As such, those that she does consider her friends are quite close to her heart.
+

−
'''[[C'ulara_Yanto|C'ulara Yanto]]''': Liliana's best friend in this life, though the two have been recently separated by ordeals of family and duty both. Liliana calls herself the self-proclaimed godmother of Ulara's unborn children; and is fiercely protective of the Miqo'te around others, excluding Ulara's mate, C'mahiin.
 
−
 
 
−
'''[http://tale-ffxiv.com/wiki/index.php/Thiji_Higuri| Thiji Higuri]''': A Dunesfolk Lalafell, and the second of two adventurers that recognize Liliana from what she dubs the 'Mystery of the Forgotten World'. She only ever has personal Linkshell conversations with him lately, as both are too involved with their own personal journeys to ever be able to meet up for more than a half-bell at a time.
 
−
 
 
−
'''[[Kairo_Fujima|Kairo Fujima]]''': The first of the adventurers that recognized Liliana, he has been the most helpful in regards to trying to get her memory back. He was the first to train Lily in the ways of the Paladin, but due to his constant disappearances, she slowly began to stray from the path, having felt distracted and dismayed that she was not catching up fast enough in terms of strength. However, she finally caught up to him, and Kairo was more than willing to help her in her endeavor against the Garleans.
 
−
 
 
−
Sadly, after their fight with Ultima Weapon, Lily and Kairo were separated in the ensuing explosions. After recovering from a heavy panic attack with a relieving, yet brief transmission from the man, his last words to her were to 'become even stronger'. This has put Lily in a mindset of worry and dismay again, as she doesn't know exactly how to continue from here as a Paladin.

The Woman Known as Lily

Liliana Nazareth, or Lily for short, is an Auri healer with a penchant for being a nosy worrywart, and a passion for salving the wounds of the injured. A prodigious mage, Lily's initial talents were healing in the form of conjury--however, with the Calamity taking away her Hearing ability and deafening her to the will of the Elementals, she took her talents to that of arcanima, spreading her proverbial wings and expanding her already quite broad educational horizons to boot.

While normally not a fighter, she is energetic and sprightly--she has to be, in order to keep up with her fiancee, Garen Ashe, and their adventuring guild/Free Company, the Fireborn. As such, she's taken on bits and pieces of certain martial arts styles, if only to keep herself fit enough to keep up with everyone, especially those more gung-ho than others. While not a fan of watching people push past their limits, Lily's hypocrisy shines bright as she does the exact opposite of what she implores to others--pushing herself until there is nothing left to push. To say that Lily is a walking contradiction of her own beliefs with others is not very far off the mark, but at least it is not in such an obnoxious way that it puts others off immediately--unless they catch her in the heat of the moment, that is.

Personality

Lily is often polite and often courteous; even around her enemies she manages to remain cordial (even though she ends up biting down on her tongue quite often). She speaks warmly to most and friendly to all, and those close enough to call her friend or more are often the subject of her constant worrying over them, earning her the nickname of 'Mother Hen'. Indeed, her friends and loved ones give her eyebrows plenty of creases, but she does it out of love for them.

The one time her personality does a switch is in battle. As a Lieutenant in the Maelstrom, she must be firm, commanding, and yet she is still not without compassion. She worries for her subordinates and would rather lose a battle to save more lives than win a battle and save none. To this end, she is known as one of the Maelstrom's finest strategists, rivaling her friend Thiji Higuri, who presides with the Immortal Flames.

Combat

General

In battle, Liliana is very tactical and is capable of thinking up quick-fix strategies in the moment. While not so much a frontline fighter, Lily's voice can still get projected over a field of battle, offering quick stratagems and warnings to her fellow teammates.

Scholar

The deadliest weapon in Lily's arsenal is her vast library. Each tome has taught her not only how to spin and weave aetheric healing spells more effectively, but also how to craft more debilitating diseases and venoms to cripple her foes. Currently, she is carrying around a most peculiar, weathered tome, wherein she states that its contents are currently encrypted.

Her more famous tomes include:

  • Pupil's Leather Grimoire: Lily's first research tome, she carried this with her often. Though the book was entirely filled out already, she often scribbled cliffnotes where she could.
  • Ars Notoria: One of her aesthetically favored tomes, Ars Notoria was written in old Ishgardian syntax and dialect, which made it somewhat difficult for her to read. Still, she managed at least a basic grasp of the concepts and kept it with her during her excavations of the Stone Vigil, matching her experiences to those within the pages.
  • Garuda's Embrace/Embrace of the Vortex: It was often joked that Lily's laughter could rival that of the Lady of the Vortex's. She didn't quite believe it, but she always did find some sort of...pulling attraction to the female-portrayed Primals, Garuda and later on, Shiva.
  • Allagan Grimoire of Healing: As an Allagan researcher, she was granted this book after her first successful excavation of the Binding Coil. She carries it with her when she is meeting with other, fellow researchers, as she feels it helps illustrate her points a bit better.
  • Omnilex Atma, aka "The Journal": Lily's personal journal that her daughter, Ella had with her when she appeared in front of people and claimed she was from the future. At the time, Ella's version of the journal had been only compiled up to a certain point, but Lily has been making it a key point to write in it every day.

Black Mage

Lily always found solace at the Ossuary in Ul'dah, even during her fledgling Conjurer days when she had to take basic thaumaturgy training. However, she began to become more enthralled with the dark arts and study of the Void after the Calamity had taken from her her Listening ability, so after she was grounded in Ul'dah after the invasion of the Praetorium she doubled her efforts in her training; however, she kept it secret from Garen and the others, so they wouldn't be worried about her. After all, she had been tainting her aether with the Black! If only Garen and Fireborn knew about her fascination with the Void, she'd have to do a lot more than just explain herself....

Lancer/Dragoon

Lily's main form of exercise, she attempts to mimic the agility of Ishgardian dragoons with her every day routine. So far, with a little aetheric manipulation, she's managed to fool even herself into thinking she's a bonafide, real Dragoon of yore! Well, at least her daughter seems to be convinced that both of her parents are high-flying dragon knights.

Gladiator/Paladin

Adopting Garen's previous fighting style from back in the days before the Calamity, Lily is the farthest thing from a proper Paladin or gladiator. Though she favors footwork over raw defensive capabilities, she isn't without them--her mantra, "Be the mountain", has earned her the nickname of "The Stonewall Empress". However, it's been moons since anyone has seen her take up the blade, so it must be a farfetched rumor that crafted her that idiom.

Tendencies

Likes

  • The knowledge that her and others' research has advanced Eorzean technology, even by just a small margin.
  • Reading. Obviously!
  • Sweets--especially pastries!
  • Exploring and excavating ruins--whether for science or the thrill, none can say.
  • She is currently enthralled with her new astroscope. She loves reading the stars!
  • Lily (secretly) loves fashion and likes to wear many different outfits. However, her favorite ones still consist of her Maelstrom uniform, and the clothes she uses to excavate ruins in (DRG), both for the aesthetic pleasantries and for utility.

Dislikes

  • Thalassophobia--she has a fear of being on the open ocean. She doesn't mind looking at it though, and wading in the shallow waters.
  • Garleans. Though, she understands the difference between patriotism and subjugation.
  • Anything involving the consumption of dodo meat in any form.
  • Being in Mor Dhona--born of guilt from being unable to help the Sons of Saint Coinach during and after the Calamity, of whom she was a ward of for years.
  • The knowledge that the Maelstrom uses her absymal cooking as a form of torture--yet she continues to help out in that way, regardless!

Hobbies/Talents

  • Lily is handy with a saw, needle, and paring knife. She often mends Fireborn's clothing and makes Ella simple toys!
  • According to friends, Lily is quite the motivational speaker. If anyone is in need of a motivational pick-me-up, Lily is the go-to gal!
  • She is a master of illusion and misdirection, much like her mother was. Lily is able to craft glamour charms and weak Fantasia potions that are at least good for a temporary disguise.

Favorites

  • In no particular order, Lily's favorite colors are Dalamud Red, Nophica Green, and Metallic Blue. She tries to incorporate these colors into her wardrobe as often as possible.
  • If you leave Lily Apple Tarts, Crumpets, or Roasted Nopales, you're automatically her new best friend.
  • Involving Lily in excavations of The Binding, Second, and Final Coils of Bahamut, Pharos Sirius, or Wanderer's Palace activate a truly "nerdy" side to her nature. One must be prepared to listen to her ramble for hours on end, or be extremely talented in tuning others out.

Other

  • Liliana suffers from PTSD, and not all of it has been branched from the Battle of Carteneau. Her key defense mechanism is emotional shutdown, but it doesn't always work.
  • As a Warrior of Light and having been there at the raid on the Praetorium, Liliana has the Echo. However, she, like most others, can't control it; she doesn't get odd flashes of memories or anything from it either. It merely saves her from Primal tempering, and also helps her to understand foreign languages like Doman (since those with the Echo are masters of linguistics, as per the 1.0 storyline).
