History Marissa's family have not been a part of an official tribe for a number of years, her maternal grandparents separated from the Hotgo tribe when escaping from Dotharl murderers. Marissa knows little of her grandparents' lives as they unfortunately died before she was born, and her mother doesn't like to speak of her past. Her father is a Raen. Disclaimer: Any Lore regarding Marissa is written through my own interpretation. Sixth Astral Era Childhood Living in Gridania from a young age, her father left the home when she was very young, apparently to go ‘adventure’, but he never returned. She has no siblings, and so lived a happy life with her mother in the quiet forests of Gridania, just the two of them. While she believes her father will still return one day, a part of her will always be sad that he left and never wrote home. Seventh Umbral Era Adulthood Although she loves her mother deeply, Marissa made the decision to leave home at 22 to train as a Dragoon and adventure herself, to perhaps find out what became of her father. She made a promise to return home when she feels she has completed her journey, and regularly contacts her mother through Moogle mail. In Recent Times Moving Forward Since leaving her home she has travelled to Limsa Lominsa and Ul’dah, deciding on joining the Maelstrom Grand Company in Limsa. She still frequents Ul’dah for a drink in the Quicksand, when she has finished training for the day.

RP Info Location & Probability Places where the character is very likely to be seen ■ Ul'dah, Quicksand: High ■ Beaches (Mist, Costa del Sol): High ■ Limsa Lominsa: Med Affiliations Most of these aren’t public, and would have to be asked after! ■ City-State, Region or Organization: Affiliation reason/purpose. IC Inventory The following items are things that this individual carries on their person at all times. These are noted for pickpockets, and those watching her closely. This information is meant to be a prompt for insight and is not to be meta-gamed, though feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in RP (pickpocketing, a search, etc) with use of a simple /tell.

If something is on the play list, assume it means yes, as long as it's within the context of the current play or ongoing plot. No's are typically a hard no, and it means don't ask. ■ I will play Anything that isn't mentioned below ■ Ask about ERP ■ I won't play Death or permanent injury to Marissa RP Hooks While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. Longer plots that are meant to run for more than a few quick RP's, please feel free to send me a tell so we can work out a good reason for our characters to get to know one another. I'm always looking for RP, unless I'm actively spamming PvE content. ■ She likes a drink ■ Will help you clear out monsters/dungeons

OOC Notes Player Information Player Note There is a lot of information on this character wiki, but it is by no means completely comprehensive. There are chunks of backstory that are left intentionally vague so that details can be later added as developed through creative writing or in role-play revelation. Feel free to use Common or Uncommon rumors freely, if you want to use a Rare Rumor as a plot hook or to spark RP, I would ask that you send me a tell first, to make certain it's alright. I am from the UK, on GMT timezone. Because of this, and the fact that I play with IRL friends on a different server, I am limited as to the times I can play. Please understand that I won't be online all the time and I might not be available to RP when I am. Character Lore Adherence Everything concerning this character that has not been confirmed by in-game lore should be taken with a grain of salt. Anything that has had to be changed because of lore shifting will be noted below. ■ No changes. Character Concept Information. Character Tidbits Links Out Links that lead off the wiki, but are technically relevant to the character. ■ Instagram: [1] Relationships I am not adverse to Marissa being in a relationship but I am unwilling to rush into them. If your character is interesting in dating Marissa, be prepared for it to take a while. I am not against ERP, and while I would be okay with Marissa partaking in an one night stand of sorts, I would like a tell first in order to arrange a plot around how this would come about. I hate I have to say this but please remember that IC =/= OOC and any relations I have IC are not reflected OOC, love or hate. I have an IRL boyfriend.
