[edit]
NameHer name speaks for itself that she is a Plainsfolk [[2]] with an Ul'dahn origin, being that her name is a mixture of Plainsfolk and Dunesfolk [[3]] naming. Both of her parents have thematic names, so they decided to continue that legacy with Lulu's name having an abundance of letter L's. Her name bares the meaning of a protected treasure, a self-fulfilling prophecy that in a way started her story.
AppearanceLulu's hair is ginger, a very distinct feature of hers, as well as her green eyes. Her left eye is of brighter color and she can't see with it since some recent events. She also has a heart shaped scar on her right cheek. Her hair is currently shorter than it used to be, but she's determined to grow it out again. She usually wears light clothing because her light body doesn't support heavy armor. Her favorite color is dalamud red, so she will usually wear something red and white. Her left eye is usually covered with an eyepatch, but when she's in company she likes and trusts, she will take it off.
What follows is a recollection of Lulu's past, from her birth up until this point in her story.
|
|
★Reiko Takahashi: Adopted sister, Lulu loves Reiko and occasionally pulls her into her escapades and more often than not, trouble. ★Bexy Amalaryssia: Adoptive mother, mentor, and role model, Lulu sees in Bexy a person she would one day like to become as. ★Maximilen Amalaryssia: Adoptive father, Lulu feels like she can trust this person when it comes to any trouble the young girl has. ★Nicole Desborough: Reiko's lover, a intriguing girl who appears to have trouble with even the bare concept of aether. Lulu likes her mostly because of Reiko and hopes that she will be kind to Reiko after she was dumped twice already. ★Peneli Zuneli: Lulu's ex boyfriend, someone she loved with all her heart, but can't be with anymore. Her Chocobo Knight, her hero who saved her from many dangers, and who she also saved when he needed help. She misses him very much. |
♠Mistress Koko: A Lalafell witch who cleansed Lulu from the Voidseed. She looked up to her, but lately feels as if she can't trust her anymore. ♠Nananomi Nomi: One of the first people she met when she first entered Goblet. For a while she had a slight crush on him, but then she met Penny. She calls him a sandpirate because he dresses like a pirate even while he's in the middle of a desert. ♠Linala Lina: Lulu's mother who she hasn't seen since she was four years old. She doesn't remember her, but knows that she isn't in jail anymore. She hopes to one day meet her. |
♦Lalalo Hululo: Otherwise known as Hulu, a Sultansworn who became quite the enemy of the girl even before her adventure began. She avoids him. ♦Dadanpa Darenpa: A Lalafell who she met on her 16th Nameday. He claimed she is his betrothed, but even if that may have been true, Lulu had the support of her new family and managed to fight her way to be able to choose who she marries. He later admitted that he was really after Scally's eye. Lulu doesn't really like him. ♦Scally the Ahriman: An Ahriman Lulu accidentally summoned and finished a several years old spell. The Ahriman came through weakened at first, but later grew in power and was an important part of the Voidseed Arc. Lulu shudders at the mention of him and doesn't like to talk about him. |
○Chichamu Chamu: Her first best friend, who died during the Calamity. Lulu and Chamu were inseparable, and Chamu followed Lulu everywhere. They were a duo like no other. She was there when Lulu encountered the Voidsent in the Thaumaturges Guild. |
A DAY IN THE SUN
The paint was fresh. Lulu sat as she watched her father's newest painting being dried in the afternoon sun. The canvas was fairly small, but so was the commission. "What do you think?", she heard her father's voice.
Lulu slightly inclined her head, putting a finger to her mouth. Her emerald eyes glistened in the sun that hit their balcony. She sat on a red pillow on the ground, her long hair tied into a small bun, leaving only a few strands that fell on her rosy cheeks. At last, she took a deep breath.
"It's pretty.", she said and promptly nodded.
Lumo smiled at his daughter. She was merely nine at this point, but already a handful. Just the day before he found her questioning merchants on where the Silver Bazaar is and how many days would she need to get to it. His daughter was starting to show her mather's traits and he didn't like that. It's been a year since the Calamity, and they only got their lives back in order. Many were still struggling. The mountains of sand that overflowed Ul'dah were dealt with, but that left the jewel city with the damage it caused. Many shops closed when the sandstorm hit and were still that way. Owners dead or missing in the catastrophe, leaving their shops still filled with the goods procured in the days before. The Garlean threat was gone for now, and the war profiteering stopped. But other things started. Refugees started flowing into the city from all over Thanalan. They lost their homes in the Calamity, some lost families. Lumo was grateful that his daughter was alive when he found her, lying in the street just outside the Thaumaturge's Guild. She didn't remember what happened, the girl looked dazed and lost. But she was alive. He wasn't left all alone.
"Is that for the Sultana?", she asked, still staring at the painting.
"No, dear.", he shook his head. "It's for a merchant on the Pearl Lane."
He sat on the floor next to her, putting a hand on her head. She smiled as he combed her hair gently.
"Well, if the Sultana ever sees it, she'll like it and then she'll come here and you can paint her, right?", she blabbered. Lumo nodded. Who was he to shatter her perception of her father? Even though he always did claim he wanted to paint the Sultana, he knew she would probably never be interested in being painted by a poor plainsfolk. This is a dunesfolk city and anyone who is someone is either a dunesfolk or wealthy, or both. And most of them are born into it. A mere plainsfolk that came here from Vylbrand is not going to get in that good grace with the Sultana. But just looking at Lulu being so proud of him made him try harder, search for opportunities, and there actually was a slight hope that one day he might actually succeed. To paint the Sultana… that would be the greatest honor any artist could experience. And so he tried day after day. To continually impress his daughter. The only family member left, the only woman in his life now.
"Papa?", her voice shakes him from his thoughts.
"Hm? Oh, sorry sweetie, papa was just… lost in thought."
He smiled at her and then looked around the balcony. It wasn't big, but it had memoried. They lived here for almost ten years now. In this small apartment above the Gate of Nald. The first few years were a bliss. He had a happy family. A good wife, a newborn daughter, he painted and was doing fairly well. They were new in the city and his art dazzled everyone. Back then, he was so sure that he will soon paint the Sultana and that will lift their social status.But, things suddenly changed. Lina, his wife, started acting differently. She would stay out in the city longer than usual. She would sometimes take Lulu with her, but most of the time she would leave her with him. He knew she was frequenting the Quicksand. That horrible place where she met those adventurers. Soon, she started getting noticed. Lina was a beautiful woman, there's no debating that. And her beauty got noticed by a Sultansworn. A dunesfolk fellow, not that high up in command, but clearly on his way there. One evening, after Lulu was crying for hours for her mother, Lumo went to get Lina home. He entered the Quicksand with a crying child. The place was absolutely rancid. Filled with a heavy aroma, smoke and drunken laughter. No place for a child, and he knew he needed to find Lina fast to get them both home. He made his way through the crowd of people and found his wife… arguing with a Sultansworn. The guy was obviously coming onto her, but she wouldn't have it. Her adventurer friends stood by, but let her handle it. Lumo decided to intervene. He grabbed her by the hand, and without a word started dragging her away. The next thing he felt was a strong punch on the back of his head. His knees gave and he fell to the ground, still holding his daughter. There was a loud gasp.
"Lumo!", he heard, as he looked up, facing his wife, who stood there covering her face. She dared not look at him then, because he knew that she was the one who hit him. She was obviously agitated, and provoked by the Sultansworn.She followed him home without a word that night. But, incidents like that one continued. And it all escalated one evening when she was provoked again, only this time, she punched the Sultansworn.
A life sentence in jail for attacking a Sultansworn. Lumo was devastated. His happy family destroyed. The burden of raising a child fell on him alone. From that moment on, he swore he will not let Lulu become like her mother. But to no avail. Her mother's traits soon started showing in the girl. And try as he might, her curiosity about the world started growing. When she asked about her mother, he realised, she doesn't remember her. He told her the truth. That her mother did something bad and is now being punished. Lulu didn't really understand what he meant, but as the girl was curious about everything, she soon found a new thing to focus on. Lumo was grateful for that. He didn't like talking about Lina. He visited her often in jail, telling her about Lulu. Lina loved him for that. He didn't even realize what's to come. But soon, not long from this moment, something will happen. The Calamity. And the visits will stop. They'll tell him that a lot of the prisoners died that day and that she was one of them. Buried in sand.
"Paaapaa…", he felt tugging at his arm. He looked down at Lulu, who looked at him frowny faced. "That hurts.", she said. He realised that he's been combing her head while lost in thought so much that her bun fell apart.
"Oh! Sorry!", he chuckled, helping her make the bun back. "Say… while we wait for the paint to dry, how about some ice cream?"
Lulu's face lit up as a firebug, and she immediately jumped from her red pillow.
"Lemon flavored!", she jumped around the apartment in joy, as he scrambled onto his feet.
"Lemon, huh? Since when is lemon better than rolanberry?"
She looked at him, grinning. "Since now."Lulu put her hands behind her back and gently twisted her hips, a familiar pose that Lina sometimes made. Another trait. Another step closer to his wife, and further from him. Soon, a day could come when she will want to leave to explore the world. And that means… she would be in great danger. In that moment, Lumo made a decision. He will train her in art, maybe if she becomes more like him, she will want to stay in the safety of these walls.
He smiled at her and then took her hand. "Okay. Ice cream time. Come, let's enjoy this day in the sun properly."
Lulu greeted his decision with a smile.
Easily heard rumours"Her father was a great painter. It's a shame what happened to him." "The ginger Lalafell running around Ul'dah? Yeah, she loves spending time in the Quicksand. Momodi seems to taken a liking to the lass." Moderately heard rumours"She got into some trouble with the law. Her mother was also like that." Hardly heard rumours"The lass had some dealings with Voidsent, I heard. No good thing can come from that." "Her father was overprotective of her, made her elope with a boy!" "She's the daughter of that bandit adventurer Fury. I dunno her real name, but hear she left the poor lass with her father when the little one was merely a small child." |
Rumours by other characters she meets"If I were to describe what I felt about Lu... I would be here for a while. I love her so much and would never see her in any other light." - Nunupu Nupu "She's... She's lovely. Her lust for adventure and inquisitive nature is second to none. She... Reminds me of me, in my youth. After... What happened with her father, i couldn't turn her away. I'd not suffer another to be alone,her above all people. I'll look after her... Protect her best i can. She is like a daughter to me." - Bexy Amalaryssia Feel free to add! |
