"It’s a pleasure to meet you. You may call me L'uth, most do."

[edit] Details Personality Relationships Rumors Gallery OOC Notes GENERAL INFORMATION L'uth is an adventurous Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te with an appetite for danger and risk. She's fun loving and cheerful most of the time, but does have a fiery temper. She keeps the truth about her origins a secret from most, and will often lie about where she was born. She was homeless and living on the streets of Ul'dah at the age of seventeen, and lived in that city for most of her life. Now she frequents all of the citystates. She lives in Mist, runs a tavern for her free company in Lavender Beds, and works in Ul'dah picking pockets and stealing from shops. She also takes treasure hunting and smuggling jobs and occasionally organizes heists.

She keeps her hair short for practical reasons, and also because she cut it when she first left her home tribe to help change her identity. Her hair is often a little tousled. She has tan skin and freckles. No noticeable scars. She usually wears eyeliner. L’uth usually wears comfortable but form fitting pants/shirts when she's not on a job, preferring form fitting because it's easier to sneak around in. She has to be able to move around easily and not be restricted or weighed down so she almost never wears armor. There is always a dagger strapped to her thigh and she keeps the tip poisoned, it's her emergency weapon when she's absolutely forced to fight in close range. She keeps her bow and arrows handy when not at home, except in the crowded city in which case she relies on her dagger if she gets into some trouble. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ Short Red Hair. ■ Tufted lioness tail. ■ Short and curvy stature. PERSONALITY L’uth is friendly, helpful, mischievous, charming, and charismatic. She conceals a darker side, often using her charms and friendly demeanor as a mask. She has a fiery temper which can often get the better of her. Tends to be emotional, but is usually still fair minded. She's very loyal to the people she considers friends, but everyone else is fair game to be robbed and/or scammed. Particularly men who hit on her without getting to know her first. There may have been a few unfortunate gentlemen left tied to a bedpost with all of their belongings taken. She makes a living robbing, cat burglary is her favorite (no pun intended) and she usually targets richer households. She despises snooty upper class people, but is very good at pretending to be one, and has been known to infiltrate upscale parties and rob the hosts of their valuables when they are distracted. L'uth is very impulsive and rash, is more likely to jump into a dangerous situation than run away from it, and often gets herself into all sorts of trouble. She is free spirited and fun loving, dislikes feeling tied down and loves to live in the moment. Romantically, she is a polyamorous. That doesn't mean she's got tons of lovers, it only means she is open to the possibility of having more than one partner, and is ok with sharing a partner as long as there's no double standard expected of her. She's also willing to be monogamous if the person she wants to be with needs that. She's open minded and flexible, as long as there is honesty and fairness. The idea of pushing out kittens doesn't really appeal to her though. She's hetero and demisexual. She's attracted to men, and does have her type (a handsome Miqo'te male will almost always turn her head, as will most handsome brunettes of any race except for Lalafells and AuRa). However, she never forms an attraction strong enough to be sexual without an emotional bond, and if she does form an emotional bond the person's physical appearance is of secondary importance. She literally has to like who you are as a person before she would consider being more than friends. Casual flings are not a thing she does, despite often trying to seem like she doesn't care. L I K E S ■ Red Wine. ■ Getting into trouble. She never misses an opportunity. ■ Seafood. Especially salmon. D I S L I K E S ■ Machismo, sexism..Any man who treats a women as lesser within her earshot will get sassed and possibly harassed. ■ Unnecessary violence/murder. If you’re going to hurt someone, she expects you to have a very good reason why they deserve it. The only valid reason in her opinion is if they hurt someone innocent. ■ Snobbery. Anyone who looks down on those who have less. H O B B I E S ■ Alchemy. She’s been known to hide away in her alchemy nook and avoid people for days whenever she’s feeling particularly upset. She finds it a good escape, and very relaxing. ■ Cooking. Just another sort of alchemy in her opinion. She loves to cook and bake, and it's one the ways she shows people she cares for them. By trying to keep them healthy and full. S T R E N G T H S ■ Stealth/Subterfuge. She's fast and quiet, and light on her feet. Capable of nimble acrobatics. She is also very skilled at lying, trickery, and disguise; capable of blending in with a crowd and changing her appearance on a moment's notice. ■ Smart and quick witted. While not scholarly or well educated, she is smart and can think on her feet. Well suited to scheming and cooking up devious plots. She never had the opportunity for a higher education, instead learning on the streets and from whatever books she could get her hands on. W E A K N E S S E S ■ Hot tempered. L'uth can easily lose her temper and say things she regrets, or give away too much information about her motivations in a moment of anger. ■ Fear/Distrust. She lives with a lot of fear, fear of relying on another person is one of the biggest. She can tend to withdraw and isolate herself when she's hurt by something because of it. She's also fearful all the time of her past coming back to haunt her, she panics when she meets other Viper tribe Miqo'te, because she fears they will realize she isn't really from that tribe and is lying. She fears running into someone from her past and being recognized, and she fears them taking revenge on her for what she did. M O T I V A T I O N S ■ Money, and thrill. Her schemes and plots usually have the simple motive of gaining money without much more to it. She doesn't hoard her gil though, often donating to help people in need, once her own needs are met. Also, she's a thrill seeker. She wants to do things just to have gotten away with them.
