N'hadiya Khei -- or Hadiya, daughter of Khei, of the Aldgoat tribe -- is a Sunseeker Miqo'te whose origins lie deep within the Sagolii Desert. Brought up in a traditional Sunseeker environment, she had never anticipated the turn that her life would eventually take. Yet circumstances have now found her venturing past the borders of the N' tribe's territory, renouncing a 'family' that had forsaken her in pursuit of her beloved siblings and the ideals that they had both shared. However, Ul'dah is nothing at all like the closeknit community that she had grown used to. Now she finds herself far from home in a confused, overwhelming, and even intimidating land, with further yet to go.

[ Pronunciation & Nickname Notes! ]  N'hadiya's full name is pronounced as follows:  "NAH - dee - yah KAY". However, her given name by itself -- Hadiya -- is pronounced "AH - dee - yah". The initial aitch (H) is silent, save for to other miqo'te. For other miqo'te, they would likely pronounce her name the same, albeit with a slightly throaty, hissing tone on the initial stressed syllable. As such, in terms of nicknames, she is commonly called "N'hadi" or "Adi" by those close to her.

Character Information

Appearance

N'hadiya is an average height and build for her kind, standing at around 5 fulm 2 ilm and weighing in around 110 - 120 ponze. She inherited a good number of her mother's attractive features -- a soft facial structure, full lips, and wide, bright green eyes. Her skin is considerably tanned from a marriage of genetics and a life lived in the Sagolii Desert, which goes beautifully well with her long and dark brown hair. Yet despite her attractive features, she doesn't quite come off as 'dainty' or 'delicate' as some would perhaps assume. She has an air about her that gives the impression that she can very much hold her own.

Personality

WIP.

Combat

Fighting Style

While still living with the tribe, N'hadiya was given the standard education in how to hunt, chiefly with shortbow and spear. Though proficient enough to hunt with either weapon, she dropped both in favor of hand-to-hand weaponry upon leaving the tribe. She simply prefers the more up-close way of fighting, not to mention that she finds the art of pugilism to be more 'elegant'.

Armor & Weaponry

As a pugilist, N'hadiya favors light armors that do not restrict her movement. Leathers are particularly favored. Likewise, she favors bladed hand-to-hand weapons over blunted, but is equally proficient with either. 

History

The Early Years

N'hadiya was born to N'hakhara Rhalo of the Aldgoat tribe of Sunseekers, her second child and first daughter, three years after the birth of her son, N'hazir. One year later, a third child and second daughter - N'hamira - became part of the family. The three siblings, despite all of their childhood squabbles and bickering, were nigh inseperable. N'hazir loved and protected his two younger sisters, and in turn, they practically worshipped the ground he walked up.

However, it became apparent very early on in N'hadiya's life that her mother - a staunch upholder of traditional Sunseeker tribal life - favored her, the more reserved daughter, over her much more free-spirited, worldly siblings. Whereas N'hazir and N'hamira possessed an uncanny obsession with the world beyond the sands of the Sagolii Desert, N'hadiya was content with their simple life amongst the dunes. While N'hazir chatted with travelers and traders that passed through their territory, sharing tales of far-away lands and while N'hamira fought with her mother every set of the way during their upbringing, N'hadiya put all such thoughts of leaving their homeland far from her mind and focused on becoming a loyal huntress of the N' tribe to make her very strict mother proud.

Before the Calamity

When N'hadiya was 15, only four years before the Calamity, her elder brother finally renounced the N' tribe and left home to become an adventurer. She was heartbroken to see him leave, and to add insult to injury, their family suffered a good deal of shame because of it. Even more bewildering to her was the way her mother simply acted as if she no longer even had a son. Every time N'hazir would send letters or packages, she would demand that they be destroyed, forcing the girls to read them in secrecy and to hide the gifts he sent. Each time he actually returned home to see his family, she refused to let him inside their home. 

During the last year before the Calamity, as the red moon Dalamud grew ever more swollen in the skies, the letters and visits from N'hazir became more and more scarce. Those missives that did reach them spoke of the conflicts going on past the desert's borders - the summonings of Primals, the descent of Dalamud, and the invasion of the Garleans. The two young women became extremely worried for their older brother, especially when the letters stopped coming entirely just before the Calamity.

After the Calamity

The N' tribe was not spared the widespread destruction brought by the release of the Elder Primal, Bahamut. Most of their territory was destroyed or warped, forcing them from their longtime homelands. They were forced to wander for almost a year before their tribe found a new, albeit smaller, piece of territory to settle upon. During this time, both N'hadiya and N'hamira held out hope that they would hear from or see N'hazir again. That hope kept on for years, no matter how often their mother liked to tell them that he 'may as well have died years before any of this even happened'. 

Two years after the Calamity, N'hamira begged her to leave the tribe with her - to find their lost brother and to become adventurers to help people, rather than hide in the desert and let the world pass them by. Terrified at the thought of leaving the familiarity of home and disappointing their mother, N'hadiya refused and begged her sister not to leave. Yet the younger Sunseeker would not be persuaded and reluctantly left without her.

Heartbroken all over again, N'hadiya held out hope that she would find comfort in her mother and her tribespeople. However, her mother - stubborn as ever - simply disowned her youngest daughter as she had her eldest son and claimed that the only family N'hadiya had left was her brothers and sisters of the tribe. However, they too provided little more than open ridicule and even hostility towards her after not only one, but two members of her family had deserted the tribe. N'hadiya, once thought to be well on her way to becoming a high-priority to be partnered with the Nunh and perpetuate their tribe, was quickly passed over for others and pushed to the very edge of their society.

Unimpressed by the way her remaining 'family' was treating her and desperately longing to see her siblings again, N'hadiya finally made the decision to leave her homelands whilst talking with a group of adventurers passing through their lands. She convinced them to take her with them to Ul'dah, renouncing her tribe the same way her siblings had in hopes of becoming an adventurer. 

Recent History

After a week of travel, N'hadiya finally arrived in Ul'dah. She finds the city overwhelming and confusing, what with all its different peoples and customs and cultures. Yet despite this, she quickly buckled down to get her adventuring career rolling, signing in at the Quicksand and taking on odd jobs to earn coin and perfect her skills.

Player OOC Information

N'hadiya's Player

Hi! I'm a long-time forum RPer (for over 10 years now) but a newbie MMO RPer. That said, N'hadiya is my first real attempt at breaking into the FFXIV RPing community on the Balmung server. I'm also a long-time FFXIV player in general, having joined in patch 1.19 back in version 1.0 of the game and playing ever since. My strictly OOC, game progression character is located on Excalibur. For the sake of keeping this short and sweet, I'll just say that if you're curious about me or want to chat OOCly, just send me a tell!

RP Style & Preferences

• [ Chat Modes ]  I'm equally comfortable with private modes of RP (tells, party, etc.) and open RP in /say. Therefore, if you have any specific preference, just let me know beforehand!
• [ Walk-ups & Tells ]  Generally speaking, I very much welcome walk-ups! However, there are times when I'm busy or otherwise pre-occupied and may miss your posts at me in /say. Therefore, if you see N'hadi around with the busy symbol, I would prefer if you send a /tell to ask for RP before posting. Likewise, there are times when I just don't feel up to RPing. If you see N'hadi rocking the AFK symbol, that means I am currently either AFK or OOC and not interested in RP at that point in time. However, that doesn't mean you can't /tell me if you're interested and set up something for later / chat!
• [ Family Relationships ]  N'hadi has two unplayed siblings. While I wouldn't be opposed to them being played later on, I'm preferring to leave them as NPCs for now. I'm not actively looking for other family relationships at the moment, but I'm always willing to consider ideas!
• [ Romantic Relationships ]  I'm not opposed to romantic relationships cropping up in RP, nor am I content with romantic relationships being the sole focus of all of my RPs. I am also not a huge fan of pre-planning romantic relationships and forcing them to happen. Basically, I see it as we RP and if the characters start going that way, I'm cool with seeing where it leads.
• [ Mature Themes ]  Much like with romantic relationships, I follow the rule of 'If sexual-themed RP comes up in the natural course of the plot, it's fair game'. However, the majority of the time I may not be up for roleplaying out scenes of an explicit nature and would prefer to Fade-to-Black. In terms of other mature / dark themes, such as extreme violence, I'm totally okay with. Just let me know if you have anything drastic planned!
• [ Combat ]  Admittedly, combat isn't my favorite thing to RP, but again.. If it comes up naturally in the flow of the plot, I'll play it. Combat RP for the sake of combat RP, though, is not my cup of tea. Not with this character, at least. But if combat-oriented RP does come up, I expect us to operate on the expectations of realism and courtesy. Don't auto-hit / godmode / metagame, don't control my character, and basically just don't be a jerk about it!
