Following a mishap involving an arranged marriage, Lissette had fled her home in pursue of a 'romantic adventure'. However, in all honesty, she's extremely terrible at it and has no idea what she's doing. Currently wandering around Eorzea in search of oddjobs, Lissette would definitely come off as strange to more seasoned adventurers. Ditching a pair of high heels for steel-toe boots sure has a way of producing interesting stories, after all! Should you find a confused Elezen woman who looks like she's too small to fully fill up a suit of armor, you've bumped into the right girl. Please, for the love of the Fury, help the poor lass. CURRENT INVENTORY Some type of Ration - Not wishing to spend too much gil on food that may eventually just go to waste, Lissette saves what food she can. As a result, sometimes she may find unwelcome surprises waiting for her within the confines of her travel bag.. Armor Polish - Though she spends the majority of her time running around mud, sand, and whatever else Hydaelyn wants to chuck at her, Lissette has standards! Should she be attending an event or be in a location in which she'll be spotted in public, she makes sure that at least her armor is presentable. Coinpurse - A basic coinpurse to carry a moderate amount of gil. Bandages - Being an adventurer can be painful sometimes! - Complexion: Growing up within the snowy confines of Ishgard, Lissette's skin is very pale. She does, however, try and get some sun when she is able to, which is not very often. In addition, Lissette has a small mole on the right side of her chin. Hair: Lissette's hair is kept neat, short, and whatever tufts are poking out are quickly pulled back with several hair pins. Her hair is colored as what would be described as a dark blonde. When she was younger, her hair could easily go past her shoulders. However, she later chopped it off at the start of her adventuring career. Eyes: Hazel Body: Her figure is slim and has very little muscle build-up in her arms and legs. If one were to look closely, they would easily be able to tell it's been a long time since she's had a proper meal. Scent: Lissette smells of expensive oils and perfumes! Her personal favorite is lavender. Additional Features: Lissette has a scar stretching from her left ear to her jawline, which she hides with her hair. Speaking of ears, they're fairly large -- something she's a little self-conscious of. Clothing Style: Lissette's clothing style ranges from light to heavy armors, though she enjoys to delve into fine clothing made from high-quality materials...should she actually be able to afford them. Her favorite colors are plenty of different shades of green - particularly Marsh. Flaws ❤ Incompetent Weapon Handler -- Though she wields a lance, she knows very little on how to use it effectively. Those she fights alongside with may find her more of a distraction than an asset! ❤ Rich-girl Snobbiness -- Coming from a noble Ishgardian house, Lissette may sometimes make snide comments regarding the financial status of other people, all while ignoring her own situation. ❤ Paranoia -- Is she being watched? She sure thinks so. Being on the run from her family and their subordinates, Lissette is cautious towards those around her, and will often show signs of uneasiness when conversing with other nobles. Fears ❤ Rejection -- Being rejected the first time nearly destroyed her, and Lissette surely isn't ready to face it a second time. ❤ Disease/Dirt -- A bit of a germ-phobe, Lissette tries to keep as clean as possible. Sometimes, getting a bit too dirty will make her feel sick to her stomach. Wanting to stay on top of her personal health and hygiene, Lissette isn't afraid to grab a washcloth and clean up. ❤ Being Poor -- Having once lavished in riches, only to have to watch every gil she spends makes Lissette afraid of having no money. As a result, she's extremely frugal. Preferences Likes ❤ Music -- Growing up, Lissette was proficient in playing the harpsichord. Though, upon starting her adventures, her skills had gotten rusty. ❤ Desserts -- It isn't wrong to sit down and enjoy a nice slice of sponge, right? ❤ Dancing -- Lissette loved attending balls when she was younger, and even learned how to dance along the way! ❤ Poetry -- There's nothing Lissette finds more romantic than a well-written poem. Dislikes ❤ Dirt -- Though she can just about tolerate it, she'll need to clean ASAP. ❤ Hot Weather -- A bit obvious, but Lissette avoids Ul'dah unless she absolutely needs to go. ❤ Tea -- Being from a house that specialized in tea trade, Lissette was exposed to tea all her life. Unfortunately, she absolutely hates the smell of it and wants nothing to do with it. Instead, she enjoys a nice, sweet cup of coffee. Weapons + Combat Styles Lance -- A lance would be considered Lissette's weapon of choice. However, her skills and effectiveness in battle are to be compared no more than fledgling level. Though her selection of lances differs from what outfit she decides to wear that day, it is shown that she prefers pole-arms crafted from bone compared to more sturdy metals, simply for the aesthetic. Sword...and no shield -- Lacking the strength to carry a shield for a long time, Lissette can just manage to swing a sword around. Though she's slightly better at handling swords than lances, she still prefers the latter when traveling. Combat Style -- Lissette prefers to get up close and personal! Whether it be a sword or a lance, Lissette carries on battling to the best of her ability, even if her weapons aren't used effectively. For example, swinging her lance around as if it were a very long sword. Childhood Lissette was the second eldest of five other siblings born from Ishgardian tea traders, Grantoix and Fantinne Iseterre. Growing up, Lissette was spoiled rotten by the luxuries and perks of living in a noble household. Lissette was the second eldest child of Ishgardian tea traders, Grantoix and Fantinne Iseterre. Having five other siblings growing up beside her, Lissette's childhood was certainly very interesting in terms of sibling rivalry for their parents' affections. As a young child, Lissette often accompanied her brothers and sisters on outings around the city, and even learned how to read and write with help from her older brother, Mariaux. All-in-all, Lissette's child was a relatively positive one! However, following Lissette's eighteenth Name Day, tragedy soon struck the family as Mariaux and his wife-to-be were ambushed by a group of wyverns while on an outing near Falcon's Nest. Despite getting rescued not too long after by patrolmen, the couple did not survive and died from their wounds. Leaving the Iseterre Tea Trade business without an heir to carry on the business, Grantoix passed the responsibility on to Lissette. The weeks following Mariaux's death were full of constant study, connection building, boring meetings, and harsh dicipline, all which had made little-to-no progress within the business's financial state. Being the next-in-line of the Iseterre Tea Trade was a woman, very little of her father's business contacts took her seriously. Soon afterward, the tea trade's coffers began to spiral downward with shops and merchants refusing to sell the Iseterre's tea brand, deeming it unfit for purchase. In a desperate attempt to bring income and honor back into the Iseterre name once more, Grantoix and one of his close friends arranged a marriage between Lissette, and his friend's oldest son, Artifort Ritant. Coming to agreement that the Tea Trade would once again appear on shelves and that the house would once again have a steady flow of income going to their coffers in exchange for Lissette's hand, the bonding date was set. Less than a sennight later, Lissette was sent off to stay at the Ritant household in both preparation of the bonding which was to be held a moon later, and to meet Artifort for the first time. However, upon meeting Lissette, Artifort refused to marry, or even associate with such a 'poor, hideous, big-eared creature'. He even went as far to order his servants to deny her entry to his private quarters, and spat on the ground before her whenever they crossed paths. Unwilling to continue with the arrangement after facing such belittlement from her betrothed, she sent a letter of notice to her father, claiming she had died of illness, before fleeing the Ritant residence in the middle of the night. _____ "Lord Grantoix of house Iseterre, With our deepest regrets, we are to inform you that Lady Lissette had passed due to a case of Crimson Flux. Worry not, however, has her body had been burned and her ashes had been spread within the courtyard of House Ritant. We have always enjoyed her bright, smiling face and her beautiful talent with the harpsichord. Apologies, House Ritant Secretary of Personal Affairs --Lissette's hastly, poorly-structured letter. _____ Before sunrise, Lissette had managed to sneak past the Gates of Judgement undetected. Before reaching farther into the Shroud, she chopped off her long, flowing hair and purchased a small set of armor from Fallgourd Float. She figured, should anyone come looking for her, she'd be able to successfully remain incognito while posing as an adventurer. Satisfied with her appearance, the brand-new Lissette Iseterre made way to Gridania. Current Day Lissette is now a novice adventurer traveling all over Eorzea in search of good company and extra coin. However, she can't help but shake the feeling that someone, somewhere, is keeping a close eye on her. Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC! Some of these rumors may be untrue or greatly exaggerated. Common Rumors (Easily overheard) ■ "The girl can't even hold a lance right! How does she even manage to not get herself killed?" - Gridanian Woodwailer ■ "She has such a pretty face, so unfit for an adventurer. She should've picked a different career." - Gossiping Gridanian Woman ■ "My apologies -- Who?" - Mother Mionne Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear) ■ "I believe she's mentioned being from Ishgard, but I'm unsure as to what house she could possibly belong to. She suits the type -- pretty posh." - Carline Canopy patron ■ "Well, she doesn't know sod all about combat, but she looks like she's willing to try, at least." - Lancer's Guild Member Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard) ■ "She was out of breath when she came here -- threw over a thousand gil for a set of armor and chopped off her hair right in front of me! Either she's on the run, or something's gone wrong back home." - Fallgourd Float Merchant ■ "She always claims that someone is watching her -- kinda weird." - Carline Canopy Employee ■ "I know her! She's Lady Iseterre of that Tea Trade business that went out of business last year. What in the Fury's name is she doing outside of Ishgard, though!?" -- Ishgardian Traveler.

If anything, he's relieved to have her out of her hands. Family - House Iseterre ♥ Grantoix Iseterre ~~ Aged 60 - Lissette's father and the head of Iseterre Tea Trade. Once a gentle soul, Grantoix soon descended into madness upon the news of missing two of his children.

However, she believes somewhere out there, she's still alive. ☠ Mariaux Iseterre ~~ Aged 26 - Lissette's Eldest brother and former heir of the Tea Trade. On the morning of his bonding, him and his bride-to-be were attacked by dragons while on a carriage ride around the Western Highlands. He was relatively close to Lissette, and even taught her how to read and write. ♥ Marienne Iseterre ~~ Aged 16 - One of Lissette's younger sisters and twin of Geraldaux.

However, now that Mariaux and Lissette are gone, she is next in line to inherit the Tea Trade. ♥ Geraldaux Iseterre ~~ Aged 16 - One of Lissette's younger brothers and a twin of Marienne.

Though the two weren't very close growing up, Lissette often played with him as a baby when their mother was busy with the business. ♥ Lindenne Iseterre ~~ Aged 6 - Lissette's Youngest sister. Not much is known about her in general, but she did have a habit of doodling on the floorboards of the Iseterre residence. Coming Soon! Want to walk up to Lissette and find yourself struggling to come up with a conversation topic? Worry not! Perhaps the topics below will give you some ideas. BACKSTORY TOPICS Note: Use these whenever! ♥ ♥ ♥ PUBLIC APPEARANCES Use these,'OTHER APPEARANCES', and 'AFFILIATIONS' to your heart's content! ♥ ♥ ♥ OTHER APPEARANCES ♥ ♥ ♥ AFFILIATIONS ♥ N/A What I am looking for/interested in: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Walk-ups and tells! I don't mind which - I just wanna RP! What I will NOT RP: ♥ I will refuse any sort of ERP whatsoever. If your character chooses to flirt with A'mahri, that's fine by me. However, any sort of action into the 'ERP boundary' will be rejected. I'm fine if ERP is your thing, but it's simply not mine. ♥ Character Death & Mutilation ♥ Anything extremely lore-broken. A bit of bending here and there is acceptable, but I will refuse to delve into anything that goes overboard. About the Player: ♥ Naturally, I post in paragraphs and consider myself as a sort of medium/heavy type of role-player. It gives me a chance to really 'give it my all' in a sense. I also prefer the amount of descriptive detail you can give while doing so. However, I will tone the brevity down a bit when in larger groups so I can match the pace of the conversation more easily. ♥ OOCly, I suffer from social anxiety. While I'm roleplaying, I'm usually freaking out 99% of the time. Please take this into consideration and have patience with me if you chose to RP with me. ♥ Do forgive me if I take a long time to post. With the stupid auto-scroll function in FF, it's really easy for me to get lost in the sea of posts. ♥ While RPing, I always type my responses out on a word doc before copy/pasting them in-game. It may sound slow, but I both type and proofread quite quickly! It also helps me keep track of where I am in my posts because the limited spacing of the chat box makes me get lost sometimes. ♥ For personal reasons, I will refuse to RP in the Quicksand. I'll be blunt -- I'm not looking for weird stuff.
