P E R S O N A L I T Y

The first thing about Neena is that she is relatively quiet, especially if she is in the presence of strangers due to social anxiety. She doesn't say much unless she's spoken to, interested in the topic or in the presence of her friends. This doesn't mean she isn't listening; in fact its quite the opposite. She listens to everyone around her, even if they aren't at her table or even know she's there. Some may call it creeping and Neena won't deny that at all, but sometimes conversations are more interesting when it isn't necessarily your business, and may even get a laugh out of it. While she doesn't actually tell others that she listens to their conversation she won't deny it if they ask her. But if you want to fight with this young Black Mage, then its recommended you wear something fire resistant. For Neena isn't just a Black Mage, she's a pyromaniac Black Mage; a woman who loves fire and is her first line of offense against her enemies. If someone insults her or her friends she will attempt to, or at least contemplate, flaying them alive with no remorse or regret on the action. Not to mention she can get rather sadistic with such things, even if fire isn't involved.

To her, her enemies are the most entertaining when they see her flames, see her lack of remorse or 'morality' as some may think. When she sees their fear, she smirks, grins and revels in their questioning of her own sanity when she lets her flames blaze forth towards anything that threatens her friends and, possibly, the area she's visiting. To her its all in good fun while also progressing in her Black Magic and getting better wielding the darkness that resides within much like how her mother once did. That is about the extent of her 'insanity' thankfully enough as long as you don't count scaring her friends and setting fire to the small things like hair or clothes.

Despite being devious and often times 'insane' Neena isn't without her humanity. If you become her friend, if you earn her trust and get her to come out of her shell, she will care for you and will defend you even if things seem to go against you entirely. This is especially to those very, very close to her, that she looks up to and feel she can put her emotions and thoughts out to them without fearing her own anxiety. To those who win that sort of trust gain a love that isn't so easily thrown away or destroyed, not unless there's undeniable truth to betrayal. To her it wouldn't matter if you had a bad reputation or even killed people, if she truly cared and loved for you then you were safe from her and would often be protected by her if she feels you are in need of assistance. To those few people, she gives her thoughts to them and it would legitimately make her upset if they came to be annoyed or despise her, but won't show it unless alone with them or someone else she trusted enough to help support her in her emotional state. Because she derives support from the friends she has, Neena is often very judgmental to those who say bad things to them, often wondering how accurate their claims were or if they were out to get her friends. Unless they talk to her themselves about her friends or herself, Neena will continue to silently judge them while occasionally thinking on how to burn them alive.

L I K E S ■ Adventuring // Exploring. She loves traveling to new places and getting the lay of the land, thinking that the world, itself, is her home rather than just the cold lands of Ishgard. ■ Fire. Obviously being a pyro, Neena enjoys the destructive force so much that she uses it the most when summoning her magic. ■ Dragons. As ironic as it is, Neena adores dragons now that she knows of their plight and the exact reason they waged war so many years ago and will defend them with her life. Even if she goes against her father. ■ Cooking. Its one of her favorite pastimes that she has used to remember her mother. She is so dedicated she has decided to go out and gain materials for cooking instead of just buying them. ■ Darkness. Since she is often using the darkness within to channel her Dark Magic, Neena loves the dark and is fascinated of those that live in it, namely Voidsents. ■ Swords // Armor. While she loathes her father's incessant orders to have her fight with a sword, shield and armor she can't help but love the stuff, especially the way they sound.

D I S L I K E S ■ Lord Durendaire. She hates her father, loathes him even because of how he treated her and what he did to her mother, she makes it her mission to do everything he hates just to spite him. ■ Betrayal. If she there is one thing she can't stand is getting stabbed in the back; if she does you bet your ass she will burn you to death. ■ Ignorance. Sure its okay with children but to older folk who feign ignorance to what is happening to them or around them is unacceptable, don't be a dumbass and not realize the entirety of your situation! ■ Strangers. Like a true Ishgardian Neena dislikes strangers, more-so because of her social anxiety than of narrow minded ignorance. ■ Snow. While not minding the cold winds and the danger being frozen to death she definitely dislikes the snow because it reminds her of Ishgard and the negative memories that usually are associated with the place. ■ The Archbishop // Heaven's Ward. She hates them with a burning passion, they deserve to be killed in the most painful way possible for what they did. ■ Ascians. To Neena they are a little more than annoynace in theroy while the biggest pain in the ass in the field, she wished they'd all just die already.

Q U I R K S ■ Eavesdropping. If Neena hears a conversation with those large ears of hers she is definitely going to listen to the conversation to see if there is anything interesing. ■ Ear Twitching. Her ears often twitch when she hears something with interest or something significant to her. ■ High Places. Often times when she wants to think Neena will go to high places and sit to gaze upon the scenery below.

R E L A T I O N S (NPC)   Dodo ( ♥ ) - The Dodo Dodo, the dodo, is her best friend and long time companion who would travel with her to the moon and back again. When he is not curiously waddling around or sitting by her, he is most likely getting himself or the two of them into some kind of trouble. Whether it be small or big, Dodo’s stubbornness and slightly sadistic behavior tends to get them into some displeasing situations. Despite this, the two are almost inseparable. There are only a handful of instances where D'ly would leave Dodo behind(and not for long).   Vorsaile Cornu ( ♥ ✔ ) ( NPC ) - Persistent Caregiver The two have long running history that started back during D'ly's early childhood. They consider each other close.   Williams Ford ( ♥ ✔ ✖ ) ( NPC ) - Father Figure For the majority of D’ly’s life, Williams had been her father figure and her mother’s significant other. He was a kind, intelligent, and wealthy man who played an important role in D’ly’s upbringing; being a positive parental figure, a teacher, and supporter of her dream to travel. Unfortunately both he and D’ly’s mother were unable to see their daughter follow her dream as they succumbed to illness one after the other. Williams had been the last to pass away, thus entrusting everything he owned to D’ly. D’ly holds fond memories of Williams and never has a negative thing to say.   Unkown ( ♥ ♥ ✖ ) ( NPC ) - Mother The bond between D’ly and her mother was strong and warm. They cared deeply for each other and stood by each other's sides through thick and thin. Pretty much the ideal mother and daughter relationship. As a teacher her mother taught her how to cook, bake, and sew. She also bestowed the knowledge of tribal traditions that were passed down throughout the Dodo tribe they had once been apart of during D’ly’s early childhood. It was around the age of eighteen that her mother caught illness along with Williams. Soon after they passed away within a year of each other.   D'lhuil Nunh ( ♥ ♥ ✖ ) ( NPC ) - Father Before his death he was the Nuhn of the small Dodo tribe located in Thanalan who sired D’ly. Although she has little memory of her father, her mother and Williams spoke highly of him. All three were close friends. R E L A T I O N S (PC)   P'azih Tia ( ♥ ♦ ? ) - Moons Within the first hour of stepping within Ul’dah the Seeker male had become lost. Eventually he encountered D’ly and Dodo who stopped by The Coliseum to have a look around. After asking for directions to the Adventurer’s Guild, the two showed him the way. Before she knew it she and the Seeker, with encouragement from Bexy, signed up with the Guild thus becoming Adventurers. The Seeker soon after disappeared without a word of his dispatcher. Moons passed and when he returned(D’ly found him in The Quicksand) the first word out of D’ly’s mouth was, “Moons.”. Though she was upset at his disappearance, seeing him unharmed brought her great relief. Time passed and the two found themselves sharing company more often than not; many times traveling around Thanalan or resting at the Driftin’ Sol. Not long ago they bumped into each other in Limsa while D’ly was there taking care of Vorsaile( broken leg from a robbery). After their return to Ul’dah it was plain to see that their demeanor around each other has shifted. Just when their friends thought they'd never able to look each other in the eye, their demeanor once again shifted to a more comfortable state. That is, when they aren't bickering.   Scarlet Willow ( ♥ ✔ ) - That Overprotective Hooligan During one of her travels through Southern Thanalan, D’ly stumbled upon a camp where the Hellsguard female was staying with her pup, Frydhaerz(Fryd for short). At the time D’ly was unable to speak. Because of this she communicated with hand gestures and wrote on a piece paper that the Hellsguard gave her. Along with the paper, she was supplied with a water pouch and food so not to become dehydrated/hungry during her travel back to Ul’dah. D’ly has never forgotten that kind gesture, shown by how happy she was to run into the Hellsguard not long after their first meeting. Many moons have since passed and during them a close sister-like bond blossomed. Not only have they come to squabble like sisters, but they also take care of each other like sisters. Thanks to the Hellsguard, D’ly now works and lives at the Driftin’ Sol.   Osric Melkire ( ♥ ) - Like A Brother A male Midlander whom she had met and drank with at the Quicksand. The two quickly became close friends; D'ly thinking of the man as an older brother. Unfortunately it has been many moon since she last saw him. She fears his knack for getting into danger may have gotten the best of him.   Kanaria Galanodel ( ♦ ) - Pretty Lady Bonded to Osric, the female Midlander is one of the prettiest D'ly has ever seen. Like her partner it has been many moons since D'ly saw her.   Sounsyy Mirke ( ♦ ) - Rough Sea With Choppy Past The female Seeker just so happen to be drinking with P’azih in the Quicksand when D’ly confronted P’azih about his disappearance. Since that time the three of them have hung around Scorpion Crossing and just recently traveled to The Burning Wall. D’ly respects and worries about the Seeker, viewing her like an older sister.   Seiko Mamushi ( ♦ ) - Snake Girl During one of her visits to the Quicksand, D’ly spotted a female Hyur being asked a million question by a man. The Hyur was obviously annoyed, however D’ly felt she had no power in the situation. Feeling bad that she didn’t step in and help the Hyur, D’ly gifted the Hyur some chocolate hoping it would cheer up. From then on they two began to frequently hang out, until the Hyur became busy with other matters. As of late D’ly misses the female hyur, as she has not seeing her in many suns.   Tiergan Vashir ( ♦ ✔ ) - Battyguard During the All Saints Wake event in Ul’dah, the male Seeker collided with a book D’ly had been writing in. Except… he wasn’t a seeker, but a fluffy bat! With big adorable eyes the bat-afied Seeker begged for D’ly’s help. Of course she agreed and she, Dodo, and the Seeker began their quest to transform the Seeker to his original state. They headed to the Ossuary where they were told they would turn the Seeker back after they brought them ram horns. After trying to get said horns from a ram(and failing horribly), they bought some from the markets, returned to the Ossuary, and hands the horns to a delighted Thaumaturge who remaked that the ram horns will look FABULOUS on his wall. While the Skeeker was still on D’ly’s shoulder the Thaumaturge boops him on the head, transforming him to normal. Afterword the Seeker proceeded to give D’ly almost all the gil on his person to both repay her for the cost of the Ram Horns and to swear her to secrecy about the whole bat escapade while also promising his skills as a swordsman now that he is not a tiny cute bat. He thanks her profusely for helping her - especially when she could have easily abandoned him when they had to get Ram horns.   Bexy Amalaryssia ( ♦ ) - Selfless Their first meeting occurred at the Quicksand where D’ly and the female shared a table due to all the others being full. The two spoke of the bandana D’ly had been wearing; at one point mentioning that Bexy should get one for herself. Not long after their first meeting did D’ly and the Seeker meet again when she and P’azih were talking of becoming adventurers. With the encouragement and the generosity of the Seeker buying her gear, D’ly signed up as an adventurer along side P’azih. Recently the Seeker became wed, inviting D’ly, P’azih, and Scar to the wedding where there was sobbing on the inside.. It was beautiful. Much feels were had. /cry.   Mikhai'a Rohnav ( ♦ ✔ ) - The Quiet Doctor After having cactuar needles snap off in her skin, D’ly was sent to the male Keeper(The Driftin’ Sol’s doctor) by Scar in order to be treated. He did just that; cautiously removing the needles with magic. She thought that would be the last she would need his assistance until she, Scar, and P’azih went to the East Shroud to explore. While there Dodo thought it would be a wonderful idea to cannonball into the water that surrounds the Sanctum of the Twelve… even though he sinks like a rock. In attempt to stop her feathered friend, D’ly reached out to catch him only to have his weight pull her into the shallow water where she landed on her shoulder. The Keeper was called by Scar and upon his arrival he got right to work with putting D’ly’s injured arm into a sling. She hopes that one day she can repay him for his assistance.   Irynfyst Rohtskyfsyn ( ♥ ) - Pirate Dad Large and protective is an understatement when it comes to the Sea Wolf. He can only be described as a father sitting on a porch with a shotgun. Except instead of a porch it's a ship and instead of a shotgun its a cannon.   Endemerrin Rosethorne ( ● ) - Chasing Blue Skies At one time she considered the energetic, however stubborn male Seeker to be a close adventuring buddy; traveling around and being told stories. As time passed their traveling and interactions became less, and then nothing. It has been some time since she has seen him.   Zhavi Streetrunner ( ♠ ♠ ) - The Paranoid Runner In attempt to help D’ly get some form of income, Osric sent her to Limsa where he set her up in contact with the Keeper. The rough and intimidating Keeper took D’ly under her wing for a short while, teaching her little basics of being a runner and gathering information. Something happened to cause the Keeper to turn on D’ly(she doesn't know what she did). Thus the Keeper attacked her after she and Jager brought her onto Jager's ship. The attack left her with a scar on her left hip and behind her right knee. Since then D’ly has been cautious when visiting Limsa in fear of running into the Keeper.   Jager Si'kaye ( ♠ ) - Rain Can Change A Man Not long after meeting Zhavi did D’ly meet the intimidating male Skeeker whom she took an instant dislike to. The strong feeling of dislike wavered after they had a personal conversation at the anchor yard, only for it to gain strength again after he kept his back turned when Zhavi attacked her. Even with such a strong dislike, the conversation they had eats at her whenever he comes to mind. She has not seen him since the attack.

More butts. O O C    N O T E S Unless otherwise stated, all information below is OOC knowledge. ■ When she was younger D’ly would climb rocks, buildings, trees, walls, and anything else that looked climbable(minus people) without any hand protection resulting in many (mostly shallow)cuts on her palms. Her surface nerves have become dull due to this. She now wears finger-less gloves except when bathing. ■ When someone does something kind for D’ly, more often than not she will have to do something in return. She feels its rude if she doesn’t. ■ Many people think she has a stutter due to nerves. The real reason is because of a damaged vocal cords that she was born with, thus causing her voice to cut out. Thankfully it doesn’t cause her any pain nor does she seem to mind she has that ‘disability’. ■ If one were to pay attention to her words they would pick up that find doesn’t mean fine, but alright does. “Everything is fine.” vs. “Everything is alright.” ■ Spriggans make D’ly nervous and will do her best to avoid them. ■ D'ly really likes flowers and carries a variety of them in some of her pouches and bags. ■ Not only does she carry flowers, but also homemade lavender oil made from the lavenders she collects. (She likes the smell.) ■ When no one is around D’y likes to climb up onto the roof of the Driftin’ Sol to relax. Somehow she is able to get Dodo up there. (Goblet: Ward 1 - Plot 21) ■ D’ly is often found sleeping on or by rocks instead of a bed. She finds that beds tend to be too soft for her back/neck. ■ Within the past few months she has taken up smoking. ■ D’ly has no luck when it comes to fishing. One day she headed out to see if her luck has changed only to end up with a bunch of kelp. Out of annoyance she makes a kelp crown… “Try and laugh at me now, Llymlaen.” ■ She is unable to bare children.
