While a bit short for a woman claiming to be of Highlander descent, she still resembles a Highlander much more readily than she would a Midlander. She's a veritable genius in many fields, magitek, machinistry and magic among them, though she professes to having no workable skill in the latter.

Though she is apparently of Highlander descent, she is a bit short and pale for it, which seems to leave her standing out in a crowd of her peers. She wears black eyeliner and lipstick, and her tightly-kept nearly-platinum-blonde hair is tipped in black, the rest bearing similar dark highlights, bangs kept just long enough so as to completely obscure her forehead. She does not appear to have any tattoos or markings of any kind, at least at a cursory glance. She has various piercings up and along her ears. A pair of dark-rimmed glasses always perches atop her nose, her teal eyes gazing studiously forth from behind them, perpetually analysing her surroundings, as if de-constructing everything around her down to numbers and figures. She keeps to modest clothing to avoid unwanted attention, hiding a more protective layer of light armour beneath to protect her in her travels. She is never seen without a tome, grimoire, or other such book, as well as multiple writing implements kept safe in a satchel at her waist. While very seldom seen, she also possesses a number of different firearms, including more than one gunblade. She also keeps what she calls a "ceruleum battery pack" for use in various magitek and machinist implements - a stark contrast to Skysteel Manufactory's own Aetheroconverter. Corelyn tends to be fairly-well-mannered and cultured, bearing a distinct understanding and knowledge on a vast number of subjects. However, she tends to be fairly awkward and can often misinterpret social situations or cues. She often watches people, as if reducing them to statistics in her head, picking them apart piece by piece in both personality and appearance. She is fascinated by technology - Allagan or Garlean - and has a tendency to get quite excitable when talking about it. In combat, Corelyn tends to remain at range for a good deal, though she exhibits considerable skill in close-quarters combat with a blade, especially gun-based magitek or machinistry weapons with blade attachments or vice-versa. Her studies into the working of Garlean culture and mechanics seem to heavily influence many of her styles and forms, seeming almost directly descended from those of the Garlean military.

The results of these are as yet unknown, were they fruitful at all. Directly following the Calamity at the Battle of Carteneau, she is vaguely known to have been in the company of a company of privateers aboard the late vessel "Coeurl," among whom she was closest with an elezen man by name of Aiouxdaux Beaumont. Her role is unclear, but it can be assumed that she assisted in deconstructing and repurposing stolen Garlean weaponry and technology. Much of Corelyn's earlier history is a mystery. She has nothing to say about much of it, usually waving it off as unimportant. What is known, however, is that most recollection or record of her in Eorzea begins shortly after the Calamity, and records concerning her are by and large inaccessible to most, save for very basic details. She has done some small amount of work with the Arcanists' Guild in Limsa Lominsa, and has travelled a good deal in search of Allagan ruins and abandoned Garlean facilities to study the magicks and technologies of each or either. She is known to have hired or taken up with various companies of mercenaries and scholars in order to further her pursuit of knowledge, often delving into ruins or abandoned facilities. Miscellaneous Accompanying Corelyn at times is a tiny Magitek Bit known colloquially as "Bit" - a deweaponized magitek construct that acts as a secretary and kind of companion at times, though it seems to annoy her rather frequently. Though she has a vast knowledge of firearms and other forms of combat, Corelyn insists that she take non-combat roles when possible, sometimes even claiming she has no skill in such. Corelyn's phobia of undead is extreme, indeed. When confronted or touched by one, especially a zombie, she will enter a freznied panic state and attack with anything she has on hand in an attempt to utterly destroy anything that could be undead. At that point of panic, that could be anything that moves. If unarmed, she will likely enter a catatonic state from fright. Corelyn has a very slight accent that would be hard for most to place when she is excited or otherwise emotionally-fuelled and not speaking carefully. Otherwise, she would sound perfectly "normal." Corelyn has an inn room at Camp Bronze Lake which has practically been converted to a workshop. It's unknown just how much she pays the owner, but it must be steep. She displays next to no attunement or ability in aetherical manipulation of any kind. She claims she was just never meant to be able to do so due to some personal flaw; she has the knowledge, but lacks the skill. Corelyn has a soft spot for sweets - especially pastries. Character Music Character Theme: "Oh No!" - Marina and the Diamonds Ambient Theme: "Science" - Two Steps From Hell Action Theme: "United We Stand, Divided We Fall" - Two Steps From Hell Family Corelyn tends to be particularly tight-lipped about her family. She seems to know they're alive, somewhere, but says nothing about them, if she even cares much (she doesn't really seem to). Acquaintences (active contacts) Name Aiouxdaux Beaumont Corelyn: "I owe him my life. He is my best friend, and I would do most anything for him." Following the Calamity, Corelyn met Aiouxdaux and his Miqo'te crew aboard the vessel "The Coeurl", and sailed with them for some time as privateers. Primarily ransacking and plundering Garlean vessels, Corelyn eventually found herself a wealth of knowledge in the wrecks and loot, learning a great deal about magitek and putting that knowledge to good use. However, the ill-fated Couerl eventually was to be no more, and the entire crew, save for Corelyn and Aiouxdaux, who remained unknowingly separated for a bit over a year, perished in the horrible event. The only but recently reuinted, and have thus far spent a great deal of time catching up. J'azhar Tia Corelyn: "Such a charmer. He and Aioux could be attached at the hip and I doubt neither would mind." Not long after having been reunited with Aioux, Corelyn was introduced by the same elezen to J'azhar. They spent a good deal of time talking, and have met again several times since, especially as the desert-faring miqo'te is so important to her best friend. She is curious about him, and would like to get to know him more since Aioux trusts him so well, but has yet been reluctant to make good on that desire. Aya Donovan Corelyn: "First a hyur, now a miqo'te due to some strange situation... and no less awkward for it." Corelyn encountered Aya while reminiscing with Aiouxdaux, and then several times after. While their conversations have not been incredibly in-depth, Aya has nonetheless become a friend to Corelyn. She has confided quite a few private things to the young woman, by choice or circumstance, and seems to trust her quite a bit. They have explored Dravania a bit together, along with Jadoth and S'imba, all from the Order of the Compass. Jadoth Bloodreign Corelyn: "Jumpy, shifty, and a bit brash... but he means well, and he can certainly cook." Met at the same time as she met Aya, Jadoth was, at first, somewhat shifty and aloof, but eventually warmed up some to Corelyn. Eventually, they met several more times, usually at the same time as Aya, having been friends with Jadoth before they met Corelyn. He joined the Order of the Compass following Aya and Corelyn both, having followed them inside the company's headquarters. Since, he has gone on adventures with them, and also knows a deal more about Corelyn most would at first glance. T'jerris Nhorenas Corelyn: "A strange one, indeed. I feel she has identical siblings. I keep seeing duplicates with different hair..." Also met with Aya and Jadoth, T'jerris has spoken with Corelyn a number of times since their first encounter, as have the miqo'te's apparent sibling, though she has only met once. They spoke briefly about forming a free company or band of common-purposed adventurers, but she has not sine heard from T'jerris. Rose Typhoon Corelyn: "She is certainly not the brute she seems. Quite a good conversationalist, to be frank." Corelyn encountered Rose during a meeting at the Order of the Compass headquarters, and spoke for a short time about some of her own findings on a mission on which she and some others had embarked. Though uninterested, Rose eventually piqued Jadoth and Corelyn's curiosity with her unusual fire-aspected fist-weapons. They spoke at length about the properties and how they worked before parting. They have met once or twice since. Sven Volkorus Corelyn: "There is so much more to this man than I feel he could ever let on." Corelyn initially met Sven when directed to the Order of the Compass by a band that aided her research in a ruin in Thanalan. While slightly intimidating to her, she also admires him a bit for what she sees as a great relationship between himself and those with whom he works in his Order. She is leery of him since an incident during a meeting at which she is present, but she has enough trust in the man to stick around, especially as the Order has been so good to her since her initiation, not to mention he, himself, has proven to be a trustworthy person thus far. S'imba Tia Corelyn: "Troubled. Very troubled. Something about him seems off, but..." S'imba accompanied Corelyn, Jadoth, and Aya on a mission to the Dravanian forelands to investigate the expansive ruins therein. While a very effective bodyguard, and an even better scout, he struck Corelyn as highly aloof and pensive a good deal of the time. She would like to find friendship in the tia, but feels it may be an incredibly difficult road, and, being ever averse to even "simple" social situations at times, she has avoided it.
