Aryn

Aryn Personal Data Real Name: Aryn Zariel Known Aliases: Savitri, Tesni, Haruko, Aeliana Race: Miqo'te Age: 27 Name Day: 1st Sun of the 3rd Astral Moon Eye Color: Vibrant Teal Hair Color: Deep auburn with golden highlights Occupation: Courtesan Marital Status: Professionally Unnattached Known Relatives: Deceased Voice Claim: Alex Tanner Error creating thumbnail: File missing I'm afraid my gift has always left me a little... vulnerable to the desires I sense from others. Nevertheless, this is who I am. You might as well ask a Scholar to forgo logic, or a Warrior to be non-violent. I cannot change. And I don't want to, ever. Why does it bother you? --------------- Frankly, it's difficult for me, for many of us, to easily accept that a sentient being can live, only to be what someone else wants them to be, when they want them to be it. --------------- But that is what gives me freedom. --------------- But what about your wishes, your needs? --------------- They are fulfilled by what I give to others. --------------- But what about when... there are no others? When you're alone? --------------- I am... incomplete. - ------ - Little Tidbits/Offsite Fun GeneralPersonalityCombat/TechniqueRumorsRelationshipsOOC NotesCredit "I received years of training in literature, etiquette, dance and music before I was allowed to make my first public appearance. We have played quite a huge role in enriching our country’s traditions in music and art, you know. And sexuality – that too was considered an art, an ancient art..." “I have never deceived anyone, for I have never belonged to anyone. My independence was all my wealth: I have known no other happiness.” Aspects That Stand Out: ■ Aryn has teal eyes, though being rather into artistic ventures, she understands how to use fashion and make up to make them look more green or more blue, however she seems to usually chose to try and balance the conflict of colour. ■ There's an elaborate tattoo upon the nape of her neck, sliding downward between her shoulder blades just a bit. ■ While to some Miqo'te, it seems to be rather common, many seem to find the shape of Aryn's tail to be rather uncommon, a few even noting it as being exotic - something that she finds rather bothersome. About Although it often requires travelling under a variety of names, Aryn enjoys what could be considered freedom of movement across most of the world; there are costs, however, though she downplays them to most, if the conversation ever turns towards her travels. Much of her travels outside of the conventional allies of Eorzea she keeps quiet, aside from the fact she currently lives in Hingashi - a living arrangement that is the crux of her travel ability. Aryn tends to collect things while travelling - texts & books on a range of topics, from anthropology to zoology. Musical instruments, collections of musical dictations, books on musical theory. Paintings, drawings, sculptures as well as various mediums of parchment, paints, conte, chalk, charcoal, pencils, inks, dyes, and brushes. And of course, dresses and jewellery of all kinds, though those are often mostly gifts. Notes: ■ Aryn is a multi-faceted artist, available for public and private performances of any size, whether it be storytelling, singing, dancing, music, or artistic commission. ■ She is also available to attend parties as a person's companion - illusions can often make or break one's evening...and possibly their lives. ■ Some do become uncomfortable around Aryn, as she seems to have an uncanny degree of empathy, sometimes that creates levels of intimacy that people are not quite prepared for. PERSONALITY I wish I could convey to you what it is like to be such an empath. To feel the inner strength of someone. To realise that being with them is opening your mind and heart to endless new possibilities. To hear yourself say, "I like myself when I am with them." You once asked me what I am like when I am alone. I never have been. There was always somebody there to educate me in literature, history, art, sex... But I have been alone on this journey. And I have found myself thinking about all the curious questions you asked. You wanted to know who I am. And as I continue to ask myself, the only answer that comes to me is: "I am for you, my dearheart." Because that is the truth. Although she does not announce it from the rooftops, and she does not hide it in the shadows, Aryn uses her talents, skills, and training to live comfortably as a courtesan in Hingashi, and her methodology has quite a reflection upon her personality - as such things do for anyone who engages in such a business, and holds such kind of status. Her unique brand of empathy also paints her temperament, causing many to feel like her personality shifts and shapes depending upon whom she is associating with at the time of their contact.

Please note that I am very open to gore and violence and am not beyond having my character sport an injury for days to weeks on end. However! Dismemberment, permanent damage, and even death needs to be spoken about prior in vivid detail/discussion before anything will ever occur IC. ■ Teir 1 Combat: An old Tier combat system from Cheetah/Yahoo Chat days. This system is something I grew up using and enjoy thoroughly. This system uses detailed paragraphs (I don't expect 4+ paragraphs) to explain actions that are being placed in combat. It uses a roll system which the person playing the attack will roll and the defender will need to roll higher to defend. Critical hits are welcomed in this system and often are considered if the difference between rolls are over 700 (using ingame /random rolls) ■ Designated Personal Systems: Everyone has their own system for group combat RP which they themselves made or they made for their Free Company. I am open to discovering, learning, and uses all kinds! ■ Slider Scale: While I do not mind a slider scale of abilities, I would very much like to limit my usage of this system in any roleplay. ■ Freeform/Honor System: I will only acknowledge the honor system with people I trust or know won't be literal jerks in RP. I will often request the basic roll system (See t1) for fights with people I do not truly know but am willing to Freeform/Honor system it if you can prove you are not going to just Naruto/Bleach up the fight as well as avoid EVERYTHING thrown at you, even within less then an inch of the attack.

OOC NOTES OOC INFORMATION Player Note I have a very clear distinction when it comes to OOC/IC. They must remain separate at all times if we are to RP together, especially on an extended basis and I reserve the right to end interactions should this be impeded upon. I've been burnt heavily by people mistaking IC care and OOC friendship and attention with romantic regard and honestly I don't wish to go through another such debacle once more. If my character dislikes yours that does not mean I hold the same sentiment. If my character loves yours that does not translate to me feeling the same for you, though I might feel a platonic equivalent. I am not my characters and they are not me. Respect this and we shall get along famously. Personal RP Limits I don't have very many hardcore limits honestly as I feel consequences must be adhered to when RPing any character regardless of whom they might be. However there are a few exceptions to this and they are as follows. ■ I will play Almost anything that isn't described below. ■ I won't play Death, Rape, Maiming, ERP only Plots. I don't mind romance but it needs to be earned and respected. Do not try and force your character on to mine. If I feel this is the case I will quickly end the RP and speak with you OOCly to either correct the issue or end the RP connection between the two in a faithful manner both parties can agree upon. Disclaimer Little Tidbits. ■ If you're ever uncomfortable, tell me! I don't bite! I can get pretty into RPing out consequences however and while I do my best to make sure permission is had and everyone is comfortable I'm not perfect. If you have a problem speak up. ■ This is a broad statement for all my characters, but I have a hard limit of at least two months before I'll allow my character to enter a relationship. A good friend mentioned their own rule regarding this and I greatly respected the idea of it, so I'll be putting it into practice myself. I've been burned far too many times by hasty RP relationships and want to make it clear from the get go so there is no misunderstanding. If your character is trying to romance my own, be prepared for it to take awhile. CHARACTER TIDBITS Potential Plot Hooks While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. ■ Shinobi ■ Often seen just hiding away in a corner ■ Always drinking tea or Sake Credit Thank you all for letting me use/alter your codes.
