Appearance & Personality

Standing at 5', with long white hair, darker skin, and ice blue-eyes, Khaida tends to be a striking sight for a miqo'te. Small and slender, she's definitely built more for agility than strength. Her hair almost always tends to be kept up nowadays, and she's rarely ever seen without her ash mask. She likes the 'mysterious' vibe it gives her. Otherwise, her sense of style seems to bounce all over, but without becoming a clashing mess.

Khaida is a driven, reckless woman with little patience for many things, great patience for the Thaumaturgic arts and those she calls dear to her, and no fear of death. She is almost always moving, doing something, and has a strong want to see the world righted, to see it flourish and for Eorzea’s people to stand tall and proud once more. She has a perhaps skewed sense of morality, but is very firmly against certain things, and she claims to have no time for romance or sex. Keyword being ‘claims’, since there are a few who have managed to get her thoughts going in ways that make her rather grumpy because it’s ‘distracting’. She really does care, though. She just likes her ‘masked mysterious Thaumaturgic master’ vibe, and that stuff interferes with it.

And don’t insult Nanamo ul Namo or Ul'dah around her. She’s fiercely protective of the Sultana and her city.

Biography

Childhood

Khaida Ahmahno remembers the Shroud, and growing up deep within it. She remembers her mother’s clan, and always wanting more, snapping up the lessons in magic that her clan’s shaman gave her. And always she wanted more. She didn’t want the quiet magics of the world. She didn’t want to hide away in the deep darkness of the Twelveswood. She didn’t want to live in a society where her dearest friend, a male born from a Tia and a Keeper woman, wasn’t even able to have his own name. She and her mother never saw eye-to-eye, but because she was the eldest daughter, she wasn't outcast for the arguments.

Teenage

One day, her mother pushed one too many times for Khaida to act like a proper Keeper woman, and the girl packed up and left. Five years ago. Except she thinks it was just recently she left, as do any who knew her. No one knows there's been five-some years between then and now. And what happened for that to occur? Well, no one knows, seeing as they can't remember.

Present

Khaida has, in the short time since she'd arrived to Ul'dah, made something of a...name for herself. She's proven herself a prodigy with thaumaturgy, has proven herself a staunch ally of Ul'dah and her people, and has made her way into the ranks of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn and the Immortal Flames. She's survived a battle with the primal Ifrit, ended up helping more people than she cares to think about [she's not in it for the glory, in all truth], and found herself dealing with things she wish she didn't have to...

RUMORS Some of these rumors are untrue or are greatly exaggerated. Please feel free to add your own rumors under PC! ◢ Common Rumors (Easily overheard) ■ "Lady Ahmahno is a friend to the Sultanate, make no mistake!" ■ "They say there's no face under that mask. Wouldn't be surprised! Thaumaturges!" ■ "She defeated Ifrit with a group of others. They're the heroes of Ul'dah!" ◢ Moderate Rumors (Moderately difficult to overhear) ■ "She seems to have a vendetta against amal'jaa. No one knows why." ■ "Momodi said she's disappointed by the lack of trysts Khaida has had." ■ "She seems to have a fondness for wild roses. I wonder if she would accept a bouquet..." ◢ Rare Rumors (Very difficult or rarely overheard) ■ "There are certain places in the Shroud that Khaida refuses to go. No one knows why." ■ "I heard a Couerlclaw call her something once. What it was, I'll never know for sure, because the poacher got poached. Oh come on, that was funny!" ■ "Lady Ahmahno has stood up against voidsent and lived to tell the tale. She seems to hate them as much as or more than the amal'jaa." ◢ PC Rumors (Rumors from the character's of other players) ■ ■ ■ ■

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Poor Standing ♥ Gracie Sournois : Gracie is a fellow Scion and a dear friend...and the source of more than a few 'distracting' emotions. They'd talked now and then early in their careers, but it was when they both started noticing the odd behavior of a fellow Scion that they really started to talk. And it all went from there. They work well together, a formidable duo of magic users. ♥ Thancred [NPC] : Khaida’s introduction to the Scions, and someone she’s come to trust with her life and soul. She often seems frustrated with him and his charming ways, but she never chases him off and wishes he would go back to being distracting…Yes, she's in love with the bard, and no, she doesn't want to talk about it. ♥ Brodi'a Right : Khaida's oldest and dearest friend, he was part of the same clan and left before she did. She cares a great deal for him, but the dating thing is just not a thing that's going to happen. Please stop implying it will. She's not interested in the fuzzface in THAT way. Have you HEARD his horrible sense of humor? Just look at the surname he changed to!
