Description

A veteran of the Battle of Carneau, and traveler of time thanks to the intervention of Louisouix, Lin struggles with emotional scars of the calamity, and bearing memories of comrades lost and forgotten, even as she beings to return to the memories of the survivors of the horrific event.

Settled into the Company "Dark Embers" after a jarring return to Eorzea after the Calamity, Lin struggles with traumas past and present as she beings to pull the pieces of her shattered life into something new with the realm, all the while, mystery of her abilities and origins loom over her, awaiting to be discovered.

Appearance

General: At a glance, Lin looks like a petite spear-woman with wild hair and a covering manner of dress. She often sounds calm, soothing, yet serious in nature speaking only when it she feel there is worth in the words spoken. She is content often to fall into the background of conversations, and the forefront of combat.

Height:

Hair: Lin's hair is almost a night's shade of dark blue, lit with streaks of a a deep red. It is only roughly kept and seemed to be trimmed with a raw knife, rather than professionally maintained - which lends to her 'wild' appearance, even when dressing more modern.

Complexion: Lin bears a fair, almost snow-pale complexion, often tinted the ambient light color of her clothing she wears. At first glance, paired with other parts of her appearance, can cause people to initially unsettled at her appearance.

Build: Lin bears a slender frame, however in the rare moments one sees her without her typical coverings, they discover that her muscular structure is well built and toned, though lean in nature. This gives her a very predatory look when divested of clothing.

Distinctive Marks

Lin's pale features are accented by the deep red color of her eyes, matched only by a strange tattoo marked upon her cheek, which she has born as long as she can remember, and oddly does not fade with age. She also bears a small beauty mark on the corner of her left eye. The bridge of her nose is crossed by a small pale scar.

It is noted that she does not often wear clothing that would be considered revealing, outside of particular occasions. In the rare moments in which her back is revealed, a distinct black tattoo can be seen between the shoulders just below the base of her neck.

Equipment/Apparel

Lin has a tendency of dressing in form-fitting, but covering attire, be it armor or clothing. She prefers gear that gives her a full range of motion and, if possible a low amount of sound produced. However, if she anticipates a situation in which survival against heavy attacks is preferred, Lin is not opposed to wearing heavier armor and gear.

Lin typically wears colors in earth tones, preferring whites and blues when wanting to wear official garb or gear.

She is occasionally seen wearing reds and violets, accompanied by a mask of a crimson wood...

Abilities

Lin is an accomplished Huntress and Lance-woman of recognizable talent. Known to train with other weapons, it seems that she does so only for the added benefit of honing her lance technique as she has trained with multiple Lancer and Dragoon masters in a constant effort to better herself. In such, she still retains some techniques forgotten in recent years following the Calamity.

Lin has been known to preform feats of strength and agility beyond that which is considered normal for her frame having been seen using her Dragoon skills with incredible grace and precision - which has been the subject of rumors regarding her origins.

Weapons

Lin keeps a varied assortment of weapons which seem to form a collection. Some for sentimental value, some for specific function.

• Hummingbird - An Allegan Spear modified to emit controlled Magitek fields when attacking, able to be adjusted for piercing, slicing or blunt impact functions. This is Lin's primary go-to spear for most of her adventuring.

• Corbmoarté - A Giantsgall Trident, scarred in the Battle of Cartneau and carefully restored to its former glory. In spite of its age and the advent of superior arms, Lin seems to keep this weapon in high esteem for reasons she does not speak of.
