A bold circle is the focus in the center, and it is flanked by two sharp, curved lines. Should a glimpse of it be caught and subsequently mentioned, she will lightly dismiss the subject. Mannerisms | Clothing and Accessories | Gentle | Spiritual | Animated | Personable | Enigmatic | Airy | Modest | Quaint A Wandering, Lilting Voice On the surface, Sparrow is yet another strange concoction-peddler that wanders Eorzea over to sell her wares of alchemical production. She's airy in demeanor, often seemingly unaware to the goings-on surrounding her. Conversation with the Keeper will flit from subject to subject, always charming and amusing in such a way only Sparrow could provide. And, before one knows it, she's gone, carried away by whatever interests her next. Should one make an appointment, though, for her niche service of crystal scrying, another facet of her strange personality is given light. Sparrow is, really, a focused, observant individual with an unwavering heed for all things arcane and otherworldly. Along with her mentor Yasu, Sparrow travels the world so that it may reveal unto her all that it has. Likes Quiet environments Singing Gardening Inclement weather Dislikes Harsh sunlight Physical contact Routines Alcoholic drinks Interests Maintaining gardening plots either by conventional or magical means. Quietly educating herself on conjuration. Alchemy and experimentation involving ingredients for such. Learning of and playing songs she discovers from her travels. Features Spectral blue eyes, hidden in the daytime by sunglasses.

Feel free to add your own under the Player Character category. NPC . ◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard ❧ "Such a lovely lass, if a bit, well... air-headed if I must say. She and her partner are, at least, certainly able to draw in the customers." - elderly fruit vendor of the Sapphire Avenue Exchange ◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. ❧ "I don't think her little fortunes are true at all. She stares into this glass ball a'water an' tells me—me—I'll be losin' my gil? Shite is what that is." - an irked customer ◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. ❧ "Well, sometimes she places special orders for unconventional ingredients, if you know what I mean. Strange stuff like the oil from a dreamtoad or the sap from a heavenspillar tree. She claims it's all for experimentation. Strange woman, but nice enough." - a medicinal supplier Sparrow purchases from regularly PC . ◢ Player Character Rumors - Feel free to add rumors of your own! ❧ Possibilities for Involvement with Sparrow Avenues of Business ❧ Sparrow and Yasu are commonly sighted in Ul'dah and Limsa Lominsa attempting to hawk their wares among the myriad of others doing the same. Pleasant conversation is Sparrow's specialty, while Yasu tends to speak so peculiarly, it's difficult to keep up with her. Both are experienced creatures, though, and by the time one has purchased something, they may not be sure what they even just bought! ❧ While Sparrow's primary occupation is selling potions, salves, and concoctions crafted by herself and Yasu, she has another: scrying. It's a quieter service she offers, and its advertisement is spread only by the word of mouth from previous customers. With a queer glass orb filled entirely of water in hand, she peers into it to observe time itself. ...Some customers think the service is a sham, and Sparrow has no comment on that. Elder Brother Ohki'a ❧ While Sparrow has taken to the life of a nomad of sorts, her brother, with a penchant for sticking his nose where it doesn't belong, has walked a different path in life. Smuggling illicit substances across Eorzea, collaborating with pirates in Limsa Lominsa on various odd jobs, and participating in general mayhem and thievery are the main highlights of her dear brother. She admits to having aided in him in escaping the authorities and even assisting in some of his tasks. Wanderer ❧ The world is an inexhaustible place full of wonder and allure and hardship and things, and Sparrow wants to see it all. One may catch her beside an empty stretch road, lost in thought as she attempts to determine her next step, or dozing in a field awash in the evening sun's colors, sleepily watching the darkening skyline. The Shoqa ❧ Other Keeper of the Moon clans whisper of the isolated Shoqa clan, their words shivering with trepidation and, sometimes, disdain. But a common knowledge is shared among the majority of them: visit the Shoqa should one have the need to deal with otherworldly matters. Their methods may be considered unconventional but few can argue that those methods do not work. Their specialties range from purging malevolent spirits plaguing encampments, communing with those beyond the veil, and peering into one's future via scrying. As one may think, a considerable price is attached to such services... ❧ Sparrow has long since been separated from her clan, but the Keeper is educated on the knowledge and methods her clan shares. She can perform the very same rites her mother, the clan's matron, is able to but would she? It's difficult to even get Sparrow to speak of anything personal, let alone where she came from. Mentioning her clan name has brought her trouble in the past. A collection of songs that generally fits Sparrow's persona.
