Khalun Ejinn, born on the 17th Sun of the 6th Astral Moon, is a Xaela of the Ejinn tribe, known for their ability to hold their breaths for extremely long periods. While she had the role of a simple fisher in her tribe, she has branched out since becoming separated from them and arriving in Eorzea. Khalun has become a dedicated student of astromancy, to the point that she can now proudly bear the title of healer and perform readings that are mostly correct. Her main motivation was to "not be useless," especially in combat situations, which she's starting to feel that she's finally accomplished. Still, she's well-aware of her weaknesses, and is ever seeking to improve herself for the sake of her allies. And so she can take higher-paying jobs and buy more pretty clothes.
Having been raised as a nomad, Khalun wanders often, though these days she's found near Uldah more often than not. Her Free Company, Might & Magitek, has their estate in the Goblet, and she is reluctant to wander too far for too long unless she knows the other resident healer is tending the clinic. While fishing isn't something she needs for survival anymore, she would feel strange without it, and the water has always felt like a second home. Khalun hates the cold, but drags herself up to Ishgard regularly to continue her studies. The stars feel closer there, which almost makes it worth it.

Khalun is generally cheerful and upbeat, if a little airheaded. She tries to approach everyone and everything with enthusiasm, and to always keep an optimistic outlook. She hates to dwell on bad memories, and tries to move on to better things as soon as possible. Khalun is very easily excited, and has a tendency to speak faster than her brain can keep up.
However, her bubbly demeanor is, in part, an act. She is generally a cheerful person, but not given to the levels of excited extroversion that she usually displays. Khalun has a great fear of abandonment due to past incidents, which she believes is because she's kind of boring. Thus, she tries very hard to be optimistic and friendly in an effort to be more likable. In more serious situations, or when spending time with those she's very close to, she tends to be more subdued and thoughtful.
Khalun has only been in Eorzea for a little over two years, which means her knowledge of the world still mostly comes from her tribe. While she wasn't entirely ignorant of "civilized" life--they often passed through Doman villages to trade--she does sometimes have trouble with more subtle aspects of social interaction. For example, Khalun can often tell when she's being lied to, but is unable to pick out which statement is the lie. The Ejinn tribe was for the most part communal, so Khalun wasn't raised with a concept of family like most Eorzeans. She is enamored with the idea of such close bonds, and excited to adopt close friends as "pretend" siblings. The Xaela has awkwardly "claimed" Nadi'a Lamore as a mate, still struggling to reconcile modern, Eorzean ideas of relationships with what she grew up with.
Her interest in astromancy came in part out of a desire to be able to survive a fight in a world increasingly embroiled in conflict. Khalun took to magic with ease, though understanding the stars and reading cards properly gave her more challenge. While it was a means to an end at first, the Xaela has found a passion for astromancy. She loves being able to help people, and studying the cards gives her comfort. Khalun hopes to better hone her skills as a healer by learning more traditional, non-magical methods. She is also cautiously looking towards picking up a non-magical combat discipline, having had a few brushes with foes where her spells were ineffective.

Khalun is small and slight with a swimmer's body. Instead of tanning from all the time she spends in the sun, she retains her pale skin and seems to collect freckles instead. Her natural hair color is a bright red, and she is noticeably almost hairless apart from head. She exhibits the common auri trait of limnal rings on her eyes, though they're an unusually dark shade of blue, giving her green eyes an odd tint in the right light.
For someone who, not too long ago, hardly wore clothes with how often she was in the water, Khalun certainly loves them. Most of her earnings are spent on new outfits, which tend to be some combination of cute, sexy, and flashy. She's not above dressing for function when the situation calls for it, but dancing is more fun in a twirly skirt. She tends to favor Doman styles when she can find them, since her frequent stops with her tribe left her fond of the nation.
Unlike some auri, Khalun's scales are mostly soft and leathery, hardening at the spines on her tail and the horns at her head. Aside from her expression, her tail is often the best indicator of her mood. The more she's thinking about something, the faster it's moving.

Might & Magitek
Khalun first met Nadi'a when the two were trapped in Doma under Garlean occupation. They later escaped and spent some time settling back in Eorzea before heading their separate ways. A few months ago, a chance meeting offered the opportunity to rekindle their friendship... and then resolve Khalun's long-unrequited crush. Despite their regular disagreements, they are each the most trusted person in each other's life.
Might & Magitek
Sara and Khalun became fast friends, bonding quickly over their former tribal lifestyle and tendency to be a little airheaded. Or a lot, in Sara's case. The two decided to become "pretend" sisters after realizing that both of them wished they had one. They try to keep up with their sisterly duties, going so far as to dye their hair to match each other (it makes sense in their heads). Khalun does her best to guide her somewhat naive little sister without stifling her.
Might & Magitek
Leroy is Khalun's neighbor at the company estate, and a welcome voice of wisdom.
Might & Magitek
The two of them joined Might & Magitek at about the same time, along with Leroy. The two chat regularly, and Khalun appreciates how Fhil always seems so eager to help. A bit overprotective, but Khalun supposes everyone looks a little fragile when you're a roe.
Might & Magitek
Khalun's first impression of Mana went well, and then people started assuming that she and Nadi'a were old friends, or even dating, and it all went downhill from there. They've cleared the air, but Khalun remains conflicted.
The Adventure League of Eorzea
Nadi'a's estranged sister, who hinted at the possibility of becoming actual sisters with Khalun, and thus captured the aura's interest.
Might & Magitek
The head of the clinic at the free company who is showing Khalun the ropes so she can handle things when Kiipa is away. Khalun is a little awestruck by Kiipa's skill and poise as a healer, and struggles to not come across as too over-eager as an apprentice.

✨ IC Frequency: Send me a tell, and I will make time for you! If you don't have a reason to seek my character out then we can come up with one. My schedule and availability are all over the place so I don't often have regular hours... though the farther it is from Tuesday, the more likely you are to find me not busy with PvE. I'm also pretty much always up for RP outside of the game (through chat programs) as long as you don't mind intermittent posting. ✨ Character Injury: Gimme a heads up if it's something that would be effecting my character for a while. Otherwise, Khalun is a healer so it's more practice. 8D
