Staelufre Lysmerl (pronounced /stail-OU-frey LEES-mar-ill/) was born on 10th Sun of the 5th Umbral Era (October 10th). Her name means "Still Shore of the Bright Sea". She is a miqo'te who was born to one of the vagrant Jackal tribes in La Noscea, wandering through much of Eorzea with them during her childhood. She has kept the affinity to remaining in the wilderness over any form of civilization to this day, and has a very odd way of speaking.

Basic Info

Not everyone can understand or relate to Staelufre. This is, at times, exceedingly frustrating to her. She speaks with a parlance that was invented and perfected by a hermit, and thus the mannerisms she uses are very foreign and often leading to misunderstanding. Only adding to her oddities, she will avoid cities at a very unreasonable rate. At times, she also forgoes the comfort of houses and chooses to disappear into the wilderness for suns at a time. She prefers alcohol and fighting to any sort of minimal comfort, and excels in agility over brute strength or magick. Because Staelufre is terrible at remembering names, she often gives people her own "nicknames" derived from the roegadyn language.

"He is prey; weak, frightened and unable to fight his way free. He becomes terrified and runs into the briars, then complains when they get caught in his fur. Such rabbits do not deserve pity, or mercy."

"Oft, you are taken by the deep and churning tides. As they pull you below, to tumble you about, you must not fight. The sea is as nourishing as she is treacherous."

"I find no small comfort in the shores of my kin. The apprentice and his bannermen honor me with mine namesake, but it is ever the freedom of the sea that I give myself to."

Appearance & Personality

Staelufre cuts a slight figure, but nothing about her short stature is wasted. She is muscled and athletic in build, though short. Her skin is tanned and golden in complexion from both heritage and a great many days in the sun. With naturally pink hair and tail, though neither accept to being tried to tame. Her hair is fluffy and wild, and so often cut short or bound down by clips. Usually, after hunting, it's also caked in mud. Even more stunning than a girl with pink hair are her gold eyes. They glare at most of the world from behind long lashes, sharp and stripping. Even with the round face and fat, up-turned nose, the gentleness of her face is ruined by such intruding eyes.

In almost all situations Staelufre's garbed lightly, wearing little more armor than leather. If there's any metal to her outfit, it is to reinforce weak points such as her shins or forearms. Never does Staelufre show her back, as across it is an uneven and encompassing scar that stretches from shoulders to lower back. More scars mar her arms and hands, though she also commonly wears gloves. Staelufre never goes anywhere without at least a knife, either hidden or plain, and cannot stand to equally part comfortable realms without her most precious ring.

Staelufre most often stands slouched or with arms crossed, especially when in the presence of others. In crowds she is withdrawn, quiet and in corners. Anything more than five or six others and Staelufre simply tends to leave. She does not, under many circumstances, go into cities or crowded areas. She fears large numbers of people after being so withdrawn from civilization. It is to a point where she resents and hates any form of building or city, even at times preaching against the luxury of society. While she believes her words, she does also enjoy the luxuries that homes can provide. Beds and showers are much better than roots and cold lakes.

In one word, a sum of her personality would be paradox. She is innocent and violent, both a hunter and likewise utterly feminine. She is harsh in her truths, and warm in her lies. Staelufre is both wise when it comes to others, and utterly ignorant in how to interact with them. Introspective, yet starved for friendship. Should anyone offer her kindness, she will eagerly drink it up and follow at their heels thereafter. Being alone for so long has both driven her to want freedom and to equally want camaraderie.

One thing that is less fluid and contrary is her perspective on other people. People are either weak or strong, prey or hunters. Those who are prey she pities and sees no value in. Those who are hunters, she respects. Respect does not always mean Staelufre likes or trust them, however. After spending so long in the wild, she knows very well how to discern who is stronger and how to avoid confrontation. Unfortunately, she also strives to better herself at nearly every turn, so often has a deliberate cause and wish to throw herself into unfair situations just to come out stronger. This often makes her come across as rash, when the acts are in fact deliberate and she's always keenly aware of the very real danger of dying.

If in situations when speaking to an individual person she trusts, Staelufre's personality truly shines through. Her words are eloquent and well-chosen, her loyalty is unbearably strong, and her optimism unyielding. She gives advice as best she can and admits ignorance when she cannot. Pride does, at times, keep her from asking for help when she needs it. When speaking to an individual that Staelufre dislikes, she becomes guarded and calloused. Her words are gated, capable of meaning anything, and her lies are so smooth it's impossible to tell them from the half-true metaphors. Her ability to command her emotions in front of those who she deems weaker is impressive, as is her capability of detaching value to their life. Those who are weak, in her opinion, are better off dead. Should Staelufre be speaking, however, individually with a person she doesn't yet know well, she'll always regard them in the way she would regard a new hunting territory. Assessing their weaknesses and prying for strengths, seeking the balance of their personality to determine whether or not they are worth her time.

Relations ♥ Sexual Desire ♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Neutral ● Poor Standing ♥ ♥ L'aenoh Tia: "Ganzjaega Riklifaeld" : A man she met in the Mist. Their beginnings were rather rough, though both held an attraction for the other since the moment they met. After some struggle with a rather cruel Keeper named Hnaba, they came together and bonded in a way neither expected. Ever since, the two have been inseparable. Staelufre has come to love him in true. She has no plans to deviate from his side, and goes to great lengths to ensure his safety. ♥ Vilsewaen Steinhoh: Her father, her mentor, her brother. He is the person Staelufre respects the most in her life, and strives to be like. It is a constant disappointment to her that she cannot follow in his footsteps, or become precisely alike him. Almost everything she does is to give him pride and prove herself worthy in his eyes. ♥ Siehrova Brynstymm: Her sister. Staelufre is wildly protective of her intelligent and kind kin. Their shared history has forged their bond into something that is unbreakable. She values Siehrova for her intelligence and quick wit, and admires her for being able to do so many things that she cannot even conceive possible. While her sister works on various projects in Mor Dhona, almost always consisting of magitek, Staelufre makes sure to provide her sister with every comfort and need she could ask for. ♥ Renaud Becquerel: "Wakkeyha Syngronn" : Her brother, her rival. He is the apprentice of her father and his natural affinity to truth and ownership of the Echo has made Wakkeyha the favorite of Vilsewaen. In this, Staelufre is constantly jealous of him and irritated of his natural prowess with mysticism. She sees in him all the things she wishes she can be, and he is blissfully ignorant of such facts. His fawning and doting over Staelufre as his own sister only makes her feel guilty of this, and oddly endeared to the man she names brother. ● Jancis Milburga: "Solkeim Brynroega" : Her friend. Jancis and she first met through L'aenoh, and the healer has proved nothing but kind and stalwart. Even in the heat of battle or its gross after-effects, the woman never seems to waver. Even in the grossest of situations, Jancis is a shining beacon for her to orient herself. Staelufre remains loyal to her, and has never had cause to question this. She plans to ever be. ● Ja'ren A'lenthin: "Arengybet Haerzhylt" : Their relationship begun on a rocky note. Miscommunication and estranged feelings made the two incapable of seeing eye-to-eye at first. Yet, when entrusting Ja'ren with a mysterious Void artefact, the two began a strange journey that solidified their friendship. Unexpected circumstances brought them even closer, and Ja'ren teaches her much of her magick and control over it. She ever admired Ja'ren, though also finds him foolish at times. ● Tiergan Vashir: "Wynztier Eifaufre" : A recent friend to Staelufre, but a strong one. Originally a strange man, she became endeared to him after a long talk about the Lotus. Some of his earnest personality began to shine, and with it Staelufre saw someone of noble heart. She has since followed him throughout much of Eorzea on bizarre adventures to save friends or return them home. Every time they speak, she finds her respect for him growing. And also a sister-like desire to scold him for so often succumbing to his emotions. ● Zaius Rhal'seer: "Doenruht Formnwust" : Staelufre's teacher. After Zaius insulted her mate by beating him in battle and tying him to a bed, she sought Zaius out to seek revenge. With original intentions of killing him, she was instead impressed by his technique and strength. After agreeing to teach her, and a couple lessons, she's come to trust the Keeper entirely. He shows to her an amount of care and yet willingness to let her learn. Because of that, she gives him an amount of blind faith many would advise against. ● Teld're Eska'aldren: The seer, as she called him, is a strange and recent friend. He is mercurial and ever-shifting. In just one sun, she saw many sides to the man and is fascinated by each of them. She doesn't quite understand why, but some how Teld're has already earned her trust. Not only this, but she's begun to learn of a mystery that invokes her unyielding curiosity. ● Leanne Delphium: The appointed "best friend". After having scolded Staelufre on ill social behavior, L'aenoh assigned the two of them to be friends from then on out. It's been somewhat uncertain ground, but the hat-clad woman is such a different presence that Staelufre help but agree she's fine friend material. Much is unknown about Leanne, though she manages to keep amusing Staelufre. ● Faolan Woodlock: A man she hardly knows. He smells of campfire smoke and forests. This initial impression leads Staelufre to wanting to know more. After recent events that led her to witness Faolan's way of healing, and the knowledge he witnessed Dhemgeim's death, she's only more intent on prying beneath that mask of his. ● R'sass Thras: Her student. A young miqo'te whose tribe has disbanded, she was intent on learning to hunt. The reverence Sass has for her is baffling and, as she believes it, misguided. But it is still a pleasant and entertaining thing to teach another her methods of hunting. ● R'ostam Tia: Relative to R'sass, Staelufre finds him hot-headed and brash. His silent behavior, she knows, is entirely a front for a confused and conflicted young man. She hopes to teach him a little of fighting, though also knows that she is by far the least capable of giving him what he needs to know to make a better life outside the tribe. ● Memeli Meli: "Toffvann" : A powerful lalafell and magnificent braggart. She holds little respect for this person, but does recognize in her the potential to do much. They haven't shared much but in passing, though Memeli's ability to find trouble and also find her way out is always worthy of admiration. ● Finecia Hawke: "Blahntrachyn" : A peculiar hyur. Staelufre does not trust Finecia in the way she would never fully trust a dragon. Though she wears her past plainly, there is always an uncertainty to what happening in Finecia's mind. She is, at least, a reliable healer. ● R'lexia Thras: "Lihtleita" : A quiet miqo'te who has not revealed much about herself. While she is Finecia's mate, Staelufre is not yet sure of Lexia's mettle. She seems determined, but there is a weakness and hesitance in her actions that makes Staelufre wonder. ● Chaska Dakwhil: "Tenkoeya" : Ja'ren's mate and a person Staelufre always wonders about. While mute, her wisdom and cunning is unprecedented. Or because it is because of her inability to talk that Chaska has a way of thinking unparalleled. Either way, Staelufre owes deep respect to Chaska, though knows the two of them are unlikely to ever become friends. ● Franz Renatus: "Iyrnfystsyn" : After having dealt with an unpleasant elezen, the two came to a mutual understanding. She does not truly wonder after the man, but does at times wonder at his strength. He has, at the very least, the presence enough for her to take his word as truth. ● Oscare Iono: "Blanabrenn" : Another she knows to be a Garlean. She does not particularly care for this dark-skinned hyur, but he has never done anything to upset her either. At best, she knows him as Jancis' friend. ● Tausenadel Geispyrsyn: "Wybhaerz" : An officer of the Coral Sea. Upon their first meeting, he seemed kind enough, though at their second and every meeting after, he insists on calling her "Stray". Staelufre has expressed her displeasure with this sentiment, and refuses to forgive him for being unable to listen to her or respect her. ● Sigurd Rainecourt: "Bremlohr" : A pitiful little hyur. His weakness makes her dislike and distaste for him very obvious. She thinks that it is a shame, for he has many strong allies, but will never reach to such heights himself.
