Vesper Lyall

[edit] Details Personality Relationships Rumors Gallery OOC Notes GENERAL INFORMATION A full moon and gunfire marked the birth of N'thaliah Xhin, who would later come to be known as Vesper Lyall. Named after an Ishgardian knight who sacrificed her rank and name for the protection of a miqo'te babe and her mother, N'thaliah lived among the Coerthan N tribe and led a simple life. Having born witness to the rapid changes of Coerthas after the Calamity, N'thaliah became used to the harsh reality of the world at a young age. Trained vigorously by her mother and elder sister, she achieved the rank of a fully-fledged huntress at the age of sixteen. When the tribe's nunh, her father, was killed in a challenge by a tia of another sect, N'thaliah thought foolishly to avenge him-- a futile plan that led to her eventual flight from Coerthas to the sanctuary of the Black Shroud. It was here that she began her metamorphosis into an adventurer-- taking on a new name and deciding to master the spear in honor of her late sister. It was within the Black Shroud that she met Asami Yamada, the one who would change her life forever. Sworn by her love for the Doman woman and by her love for the Doman's cause, N'thaliah pledged herself to the forming company known as the Order of Esper and became its famed Spymaster. Years passed and their passionate romance only bloomed further. Her heart could never have been prepared enough for the shattering truth that Asami had used her and the company to traffic Ala Mhigan children to the Empire. After a grim discovery, N'thaliah was forced to expose her lover to the Immortal Flames, which sparked a feud that could only be settled in blood. Under the guise of Vesper Lyall does N'thaliah hope to end the lives of her pursuers, her former allies and companions. One delicious murder at a time. APPEARANCE A girl of wild, ashen brown hair, Vesper stands only slightly above average for a female Seeker of the Sun. Her body shows signs of warfare in tiny scars that decorate her arms, legs, and torso, but they are largely faded. It is far more noticeable that she is muscular and has kept herself in good shape, though that has been deteriorating as of late due to health issues. Vesper's eyes gleam a pale green-- vivid with life. Her skin is quite pale in color, often kept concealed by clothing. A few hours of sun will only cause her to burn a dark crimson rather than tan-- an unfortunate genetic trait. Her complexion seems quite healthy otherwise, though a more keen eye might notice the perpetual shadows under her all-too-often bloodshot eyes. She strays from make up on a typical day, but has been known to indulge in common Eorzean eye shadows (particularly dark hues) or opt for tribal face paint. Rarely, she will dye her hair sunny blonde or dark auburn. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ The Mark of the Shemhazai-- a black tattoo on her left shoulder marks her as a former member of the Order of Esper. The mark on Vesper's shoulder is, in particular, the mark of the Whisperer, which was reserved to only the Council member who held the Spymaster position. This marking is often covered by clothing or make up. ■ Arm Scar-- Wrapping from halfway down her forearm to her shoulder is a swollen, purple scar. Given to her by her former lover during their last battle on the cliffsides near the Black Shroud, this mark is where Vesper came into contacted with something known as the "Cursed Blade". A venom was used on the blade to hamper healing the wound it would leave behind and cause it to ache terribly. ■ Freckles-- Clusters of freckles dot the area over Vesper's cheeks and nose. ■ Fluffy Tail-- The Coerthan N tribe has adapted quite nicely to the colder climate of the highlands. Even prior to the fall of Dalamud, the members of the tribe, Vesper included, sported long-furred tails. ■ Nose Scar-- given to her by N'zahrn Nunh during her attempt to avenge her father. His ceremonial knife is what dug the scar across the bridge of her nose. It is noticeable but has faded considerably with time. PERSONALITY Vesper is a woman of many facets, many faces– both literally and figuratively. Having made her profession as a spymaster for several years, she has a way of fluently lying and acting. The only catch here is that she is a woman of extremes– extreme anger, extreme joy, and extreme sadness being the ruling three emotions she experiences. Her acting is passable, but when she’s emotionally invested, she finds herself slipping in her own guises and lies. That being said, despite shrouding herself in layers of enigma, she is a good-hearted person. She follows the morals instilled upon her by the tribe she was raised in– do good, preserve your allies, and bring justice where it should be dealt. These teachings sometimes collide with her brash personality, and oftentimes, she finds herself at war with what is “correct”. Vesper picks her friends very carefully and prefers to keep them close to her. She is fiercely dedicated to her companions, willing to risk life and limb to make sure they are safe. She has a hard time sharing her feelings and her troubles with friends, however, not wanting to burden them with her problems. Because of this, she may sometimes appear aloof when it comes to serious matters, opting to deflect severe circumstances or topics with humor. She desperately fears that she will be judged for her past errors and tries to firmly keep a lid on her past. Sometimes, she takes this a bit too far out of fear. Overall, she follows the Chaotic Good archetype– although sometimes has fallen under scrutiny and question for what she considers to be “morally right”. Generally speaking, however, she tries her best to abide by the law as well as help others to the best of her ability. She has several bad habits– Vesper finds succor and relaxation in drinking, sometimes to the point where she blacks out. She occasionally dabbles in herbal medicines, but doesn’t make a habit out of it (it doesn’t “taste as good as booze” according to her). She indulges in gambling when given the chance, bonus points if she’s able to rig the game in her favor. Her depression often gets the best of her, spiking her already paranoid mind. On the worst days, she flips between not caring at all and caring too much. Signs of her anxiety are shown are on her arms, as she has a tendency to claw at herself/pick at her skin absent-mindedly when experiencing an episode. While nervous, she usually talks too much or really quickly, resulting in furthering her own embarrassment. She keeps a good portion of her feelings concealed by a snarky mask of humor. Her spy persona serves her well in that regard. L I K E S ■ Pranks. ■ Booze. ■ Kids. ■ Spicy Food. ■ Being wrapped in big hugs by taller people than her. ■ Sleeping.

Seems to have a friend that lives there that she likes to visit." -- resident of Aleport ■ "I see her doing missions fairly often. She's always training when she's not doing that. Punchin' things or wavin' that wand around. She told me once that she's tryin' to become a conjurer. I don't think she's got it in her, if I'm honest. She's a firecracker, that one." -- La Noscean sailor ◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first! ■ "Aye, I've seen that lass. She comes in a lot, listens to conversations but doesn't really interact. She always orders rum and drinks maybe a glass before leaving. Seems like she's always just trying to snoop if you ask me." -- patron at the Quicksand. ■ "She's from Coerthas. I only know that because I heard her talking about it one day. Said she doesn't miss the cold or the Ishgardians. But who can blame her, eh?" -- Limsa Lominsan drunk ■ "I've seen her around with a company before. Never knew much about them, but it looked like they were blades for hire. She used to carry about a pretty impressive looking spear too. Haven't seen her decked out in awhile. Maybe she gave up that sort of life for something else." -- Ul'dahn merchant ◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using! ■ "I've seen her before. She's got a bounty on her head or something. Saw some people in dark red uniforms looking around for her. Say they're old "friends" of hers. I doubt that, somehow. Ul'dah's full of backstabbin' shites. Hope they never find her." -- Ul'dahn citizen" ■ "I've met that girl. But when I met her, she introduced herself as V'nanni Kahen. Somehow, I don't think that's her real name. Having so many aliases can only mean trouble, if I'm honest." -- Quicksand frequenter ■ "She comes by the Conjurer's Guild every few moons to get treated for an injury that never quite healed right. I've not seen anything like it myself. The scar acts like it is alive... a fell sort of a magic. We are lucky the Elementals have weakened, lest I fear aiding her would invoke their wrath. I dislike what has afflicted her and pray it is not contagious." -- Shroud conjurer P C Feel free to add your own rumors to this section. ◢ Player Character Rumors - Some of these are more rare than others! ■ "Rumor." — Rumormonger.
