[edit] Details Personality History Relationships OOC Notes GENERAL INFORMATION "Though I sympathize with this dandiprat, firmly entrenched betwixt crime and poverty, I am nevertheless helpless, yet to continue admonishing her for the laws she breaks. Her chicanery is ever the decision she seems determined to make, and as such her lot will end in tragedy." ~ Guard Sergeant Tilmund Strongfist "Had she the physical strength to swing the sword, or the focus to cast her magics consistently, a job would have been proffered. Alas, she can do neither. Behind those sapphire eyes the gears turn forever forward, but none are privy to her true thoughts. Of singular note is her adoration and respect of Lalafells; it appears that, in my estimation, she treasures our small stature and keen intellects, features to which she feels akin and affords no small amount of admiration. Whether or not she is aware our strength exceeds her own is another matter." ~ Momoru Moru, Adventurer. "'Tis unfortunate this costly medicine is compulsory for your body to remain hale; it places you in the lamentable circumstance of ever rising amounts of debt. Though your body remains frail and fragile, ever does your imagination and crafting skill shine brilliantly. 'Tis clear supplying to the underbelly pains you, yet I am not of mind to release your debt, as your ingenuity is too valuable a commodity for the syndicate to lose." ~ P.X., Black Market Supplier APPEARANCE Labeled "diminutive" and "slight" by strangers, in truth she is scrawny and physically weak. Malnutrition in her younger years, coupled with her medical condition has left her a head shorter and more fragile than many other Miqo'te. Oft confused for a Seeker of the Sun at a distance due to her fair complexion and light-toned, wild and short hair, it is only upon closer inspection can one see her deep teal irises and round pupils, if they can overlook the dirt and grime layered upon her skin. Her clothes are tattered, old and patched, marking her as being firmly in the claws of deep poverty. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ Her clothes are dirty, patchy, old and tattered. ■ Hair is short and feral out of necessity. ■ Physically fragile and scrawny PERSONALITY "My time working with her was well spent -- her bright and cheery attitude has become infectious and 'tis plain her passion for her work spills into her creations. 'Twas disheartening that she disallowed further attempts from me to glean more of her; the greater I pushed of her history, the more irate she became, though her composure would quickly gather each time. I falter to use the term 'lies' when addressing the subject, but if pressed too hard on her past she will concoct stories as a form of self-preservation. 'Twould seem that her drive is to strive t'wards the future unfaltering, as the past chases her like a looming beast. 'Neath the surface of her happiness, she chains her sorrow in a deep well and deflects all attempts of it to rise. Notable further is the distressing state of her physical body. While some days she carried the stamina of a normal person her age, on others she was too weak to stand. I attribute these to the medicine allotted to her by the under-market suppliers as their means of control." ~Tirimeaux Chandeliceaux, Chirurgeon Shaped by stories of eld, of legends and departed heroes in a bygone world and creatures fantastic, Teora dreamt of following the footsteps of an adventurer and creating her own tale. Yet, tales of the wondrous and the intriguing are not granted to all to who ask, no matter the desire. Ever slighted by the lack of her physical mastery and scarcity of focus, Teora bears the burden of her perceived failures; and though others would label her an accomplished healer, she has mind to disagree and mention, instead, that she is an "excellent creator" and "inventor". Over time, she has become wont to fall into the depths of her machinations, and new acquaintances oft remark on her proclivity to gravitate towards the technical in conversation. Once, she harbored ambition to supply the adventurers and heroes of Eorzea with superior weapons and goods to compensate for her inability to participate, yet the fangs of poverty have ensnarled her betwixt its jaws. Teora's time is now oft spent crafting illicit goods for Ul'dah's dark underbelly to survive, causing her no small amount of resentment and self-loathing. Engaged regularly with her own thoughts and oft oblivious to happenings near, loud noises easily startle her and lead to swift frustration. Described at points as 'inattentive' and 'obsessed' by outsiders, she can, at times, be an acquired taste. Despite being awkward in nature with a penchant to say the wrong thing, she carries a rosy, optimistic demeanor. Counted among her greatest flaws is her dismal combination of craving recognition and approval, yet despising being the center of attention; such factors make her malleable, easily misled and prone to manipulation. These predispositions oft result in misguided attempts to please those around her, though the intent may be pure.

Knowledge and stories he bequeathed to me, in that I learned to be resourceful, intelligent in my applications; and ways of healing magic became known to me. Truly, a better education could not be afforded. In those days we had companions with whom to sit by the flames after the passing of the sun and enjoy company; but their names and faces have been obscured from thought. My adopted sire, too, escapes my memory. When I attempt to recollect his face, I see naught but brightness and shadows. That day, those many years ago, I lost all, like so many others. Yet though their identity fades from me, the lessons imparted have never strayed from my mind. In this, I am as I began: with wraiths stalking my every footstep in the darkness." - Teo on her past RELATIONSHIP STATUS LEGEND ♥ Family – ♥ Involved – ♥ Romantic – ♥ Platonic – ♥ Physical – ♦ Friend – ★ Acquaintance – $ Business – ✝ Deceased – ✔ Positive – ✖ Negative – ● Neutral – � Unsure FAMILY Tira Temeyo ✖ (Mother) Character's Thoughts: " ."

I am a fairly experienced roleplayer and I'm able to adapt to any type of situation. I consider myself a "mirror" roleplayer; that is, I copy the style of person I'm playing with. Therefore, I'm very flexible in resolutions, length of posts and types of roleplay. However, I am sometimes shy and I am often slow in responses so please be patient. This is my first character in FFXIV so I'm not certain of the lore, but I do learn quickly! Personal RP Limits This section is where I tell you what I will and will not do! Keep in mind though, because I am flexible these are more guidelines than actual rules. I tend to follow the RP where it goes. ■ I will play basically anything. It has to make sense though! I roll with the punches and will do a lot of off-the-wall things at random if that's what we're all doing, but it has to be within the narrative. If someone randomly comes up and stabs my character without warning, I'll go along with it; but if said person is doing it without being serious or having intent to follow through on RP, I may choose to ignore it depending on the circumstances, though I hate doing that! I absolutely love spontaneity! ■ I won't play very little. I'll let people know if it's too far for me. Usually, I draw the line at permanent maiming and mutilation unless it's pre-discussed. In fact, character death and permanent maiming/scarring are the only things I would like discussed beforehand! Everything else is fine with me. My stance on ERP is 'not frivolously' and only within a narrative; even then I rarely participate and may opt for fade-to-black, but again, everything depends on the story. Disclaimer Little Tidbits. ■ I am new to FFXIV but not to roleplay! Please be patient with me. I can be shy, and, again, may take a while to respond to posts. If you want to get in touch to set up some sort of family/friend/enemy/whatever relationship, please let me know! CHARACTER TIDBITS Potential Plot Hooks Your character may know (or know of) Teo if: ■ They spend copious amounts of time in Ul'dah or Limsa Lominsa. If Ul'dah, she lives on the streets in the alley of Pearl Lane. If Limsa Lominsa, she spent a year on the streets there near the Fisher's wharf. ■ If you frequent the underground markets, you may have run into some of her creations. She peddles black-market crystals, weapons, explosives, etc. She has gained slight notoriety (albeit begrudgingly) for her illegal wares. ■ If you are a black-market or grey-market seller, vendor, or broker in Ul'dah, you've probably had dealings with her, if you deal with the street-level. It's likely she may owe you a lot of money, or has sold you products. ■ If you are an investigator, law-bringer or other, you may know Teo and her illicit affairs. Character Lore Adherence I adhere pretty strictly to the lore of FFXIV. I don't know it all that well, but I'll rarely break the lore without a reason intentionally. This just means I won't do things like jedi or vampire stuff or something unless it has roots in lore. ■ No changes required.
