| − | A lalafell usually found in a foul mood, with a sickly look on her face and some nasty bags under her eyes during most days. Loved by a few, avoided by other few and neutral for the rest, she says to be a priestess of Thal and enjoys a weird cruel sense of humor, which often causes her to be the focus of all the frowns in the room, although the cruelty of it is usually pointed at herself. Well mannered yet always seeming to be suspicious, inciting a sense of caution on some who interact with her, Koko has grown to be an avid scholar and researcher of the occult, eventually earning several derogatory nicknames such as "witch". This is further encouraged by the fact that she often sleeps during the common daytime and awakes when others go to bed, which combined with the fact that she uses blood for her research and some spells, has spawned a lot of funny yet misdirected gossip.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Elder of the two sisters and black sheep in the family, she consumes -at least- a bottle of wine a day, finding the drink to be one of the only joys left in life and one that allows her to actually be social. Those fortunate enough to have met her a long time ago may be attached to her nowadays, but for those who just arrived this might seem odd and unsettling, given the disposition of the woman towards isolation and rejecting common individuals from her immediate presence.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Recently, she has been offering her protection against aetherical or void related threats for the Kindred, solely demanding a steady supply of wine as a form of payment.
| |
| | | | |
| | ====Appearance==== | | ====Appearance==== |
| | | | |
| − | From her appearance alone, one can immediately think that she has some kind of problem, probably related to sleep deprivation. Her upper face is covered by tribal tattoos and while her eyes give off a beautiful shade of purple, the nervous ticks she sometimes suffers there coupled with the bags under them make her look unhealthy. She is tall, but not extremely so, and her body is soft due to her self-destructive and sedentary lifestyle. Her back bears some barely seen scars which seem to be caused by some sort of whip, probably wielded by herself judging by the position and angle. Her hair is naturally turquoise, though some strings of light-grey are starting to show already, combined with hairstyles usually adopted by mature adults to give her exactly that kind of presence.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Her attire ranges from one extreme to almost the other, though she's more commonly seen either dressed as a priestess or as a wealthy scholar lady. Her acolyte robes are ornamented with void-sensitive pieces of jewelry to help her detect an unwelcome presence before anything terrible happens, though her noble-lady clothes are much more standard, merely offering a nice external appearance to compensate for her personality.
| |
| | | | |
| | ====Behavior==== | | ====Behavior==== |
| | | | |
| − | Pessimistic, jealous, generally strange unless inebriated. Where this lalafell used to be a lazy good for nothing, now a mysteriously determined individual appears. Strongly motivated by an unknown factor she is yet to reveal to most people close to her, the majority of her actions show her willingness to sacrifice herself and take the darkest paths of life, so that a few specific people may remain walking on the light. Still, this same determination has caused her to become a little sadistic and cruel, finding entertainment and relief in it. When it comes to interacting with others, she can be considered one to respect the rules and at least attempt to remain civil whenever possible, yet still one to immediately bite with venomous fangs when the situation turns against her.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Around her family members, she seems to be much more caring, though in such a way that could make most people wonder about what her true feelings are like. All in all, her way of acting and living gives the vibe of her being like a walking-dead.

| | | | |
| − | Koko is a nowadays both a fully dedicated and talented thaumaturge, and an apprentice in guild-forbidden arts involving blood and other varied sacrifices. When fueled by her jealousy, she bears little regard for other people's lives and can turn to be fairly cruel. Death is seen as more of a blessing by her, often viewing her servitude to Thal as something akin to a grim reaper in search of those who deserve to meet her god.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Phisically, she is not in a good condition, tiring fairly easily from bodily efforts, but her magical potential more than compensates for it.
| + | ====Thaumaturgy==== |
| | | | |
| − | ====Thaumaturgy====
| |
| | | | |
| − | Of course, being now fully dedicated to thaumaturgy and talented for it bears impressive results, and so if something can be achieved through this school of magic, Koko can probably manage to do it. Not mixing it with conjury, arcanima or any martial skill, her thaumic abilities are very sharp and her spells can be subtle, versatile or devastating, the effects including but not limited to sleepiness, nausea, fire, ice, shock, lightning, explosions, aether bursts and short range teleportation. Her considerable aether pool combined with her ability to interact with it also makes her able to become a succulent bait for voidsent, easily catching their attention when needed, but also able to hide her presence otherwise. She has used this skill in the past to become a volunteering sacrifice in order to lure the void presence outside of its thrall, in order to ave its life while others take care of the demon.

| − | ::*Yuyuki Yuki: Younger and dearest sister. Yuyuki could still be considered an innocent, yet spoiled child, and the age gap between the two forces Koko to feel like a replacement of their mother sometimes. Koko's past actions have indirectly influenced her sister's life in a negative way, to the point of eventually making her lose her own job as an accountant in Ul'dah. This is one of her biggest regrets, so one could think she's now atoning for this in her self imposed crusade. Nowadays Yuyuki seems to be trying to do the same, working hard to save Koko from destroying herself. | + | : |

| |
| − | ::*[[Nananomi Nomi]]: Surrogate brother she met during better times, in a much different situation and while adopting an entirely different identity. The two used to be very close, Nananomi being practically her only friend and comforting presence for most of the time. Having shared plenty of adventures and misadventures, the two eventually decided to adopt each other to wipe away the rising rumors about them being romantically involved, however time and circumstances have been moving them away from each other again. Gladly, they still maintain a decently good relationship, though Koko doesn't find him to be as important to her now as he used to be.

| |
| − | ::*[[Bexy Amalaryssia]]: Elegant and polite miqo'te, and the only person she has recently met who is really in love. Long ago, Koko offered her advice to a conflicted Bexy, and soon after offered one of her old friends to heal her and save her life, planting the seeds for a future friendship that would eventually bring a glint of light to the lalafell's lowest and darkest moment. Since them, Koko is slowly starting to open herself to others, greatly appreciating Bexy's presence and more than willing to waste her otherwise precious time with the miqo'te. Since Bexy seems to really love her significant other, a strong feeling of jealousy often rounds Koko's mind, though she likes her friend too much for it to be relevant.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ::*[[Reinette Aurifont]]: Just as time changes, so do people, either if they're actually moving forward or just staying too far behind. Koko is not too sure of which group she fits in, or Reinette, for that matter, but something is certain: If she ever started considering this during her meditation, it was only because of having met Reinette. While she usually feels to be out of this world, or not belonging in it, it all changes when interacting with this elezen, so Koko merely sees them both of them and other similar people as a misunderstood minority. Three conversations have been enough for them to form some sort of invisible long distance bond. It almost feels as if the two never have been out of touch when they meet again.

| − | ::*Menphina: While she won't admit it around Keepers, her hatred for Menphina, both the representation of the deity and the astral body itself, is not something to be ignored. Moving her to act in zealous and paranoid ways, this is what really keeps her going when everything else fails.
| |

| − | ::*Sasato: Her own grandmother, someone who has been teaching her most of what she currently knows. Now, their relationship can be compared to a full out war between two nations.
