Character

Luna Fay /ˈluːnə ˈfeɪ/ is a bubbly botanist hailing from Limsa Lominsa. Born into a family of herbalist-healers, Luna could speak plant before she could speak... speak. But sampling weeds in La Noscean fields was not enough to sate her fancies of fantasy (dragons, damsels, danger...), and she dreamed of forests as tall as the sky with all manner of flora and fauna (and secrets) to be found. And so, she left, now traveling the lands as a lonely "merchant" known for asking too many questions and picking a pocket or two.

Eyes	Hair	Skin	Body Type	Voice
Amethyst-purple.	Straight and snow-white; falls to her mid-back.	Pale.	Small, thin.	Sweet yet joyful.
Bearing	Notable Features	Alignment	Element	Nameday
Elegant, nimble.	Crescent-moon markings on cheeks.	Chaotic Good.	Wind.	20th Sun of the Second Umbral Moon, 1560.

Her most notable characteristic would be her face: kohl-lined eyes of amethyst, large and expressive, set in snowy, pixie-like features and punctuated with a radiant smile. Tapering crescents of blue-purple curve along her cheeks and profile in the resemblance of moons, a tribute to the Lover and mark of her heritage. Of the body she is petite and wispy: with slender legs, soft-shaped hips, a slim torso and lean arms. Small on the Miqo'te scale, Luna's sprite-like build is that of a flyer, not a fighter. Despite being generally pretty, her size, slimness and youthful countenance frequently leads to confusion over age and gender (looks anywhere between fourteen to eighteen years old, though curves are beginning to show).

Her hair, often braided but never symmetrically, has an uneven fringe (cut by herself?) and cascades untidily to her waist in silver waves. Her inclinations towards fashion (feminine, frilly clothes that are form-fitting) have had to be repressed lately as she adjusts from rich kid to poor explorer. She rarely wears items of value anymore [or any indication of wealth for that matter], instead adorning herself with odd baubles, cheap jewelry and a multitude of blossoms (dirt and bruises are also common “accessories.”) Luna's ears and tail are nothing of extraordinary note, though they are of the Keeper's size and length and shimmer when caught in moonlight. Though her scent can vary from milkroot to maple, she does try and retain a characteristic smell of sugar (thanks to her perfume, heliotrope). During the day her voice is somber and serene, gaining a notable lilt, even squeak, in the evening-time.

Also, when the environment permits, she does not wear shoes.

Relationships

Family

Luna is the youngest of five boys. On her mother's side she has 7 aunts and 2 uncles, and on her father's 6 aunts and 4 uncles - not to mention the spouses/mates of each. She has a multitude of cousins, and a mingling of Seeker-blood through her mother's kin. Due to the extent of her relations, only family members of special regard to Luna will be marked here.

Yona Fay (Mother, Alive.) - Though loving and maternal, Yona has estranged her only daughter by forcing Luna into her own sense of "duty." The two have failed to see eye to eye for years, and will likely continue to alienate one another in the years to come.
Ari'to Jinn (Father, Deceased.) - Much more accepting of his daughter's unconventional (by Fay standards) behaviour, Ari'to has always encouraged Luna to chase her dreams. He fought and died in the Battle of Carteneau.
Amo'sae Jinn (Uncle, Miraculously Alive.) - Every family has its eccentric. A Gridanian tanner who has taken up scouring the Shroud for abandoned Garlean technology, Amo'sae moonlights as an inventor. Against her mother's will, Luna spent nearly a year living with her uncle while she studied the forest's unique flora, and decidedly he is her favourite relative. He fought in the Battle of Carteneau under the Gridanian standard and was presumed dead for six years.
Fuschia Fay (Cousin, Deceased.) -
Gerber'a Fay (Brother, Deceased.) -
Chani Fay (Cousin, Alive.) - A Seeker relative two cycles her junior, much of Luna's exuberance can be traced back to this fun-loving sun Miqo'te.

History/Timeline

The Tribe

As far back as memories could reach the Fay had been healers. Specialists of plants and their medicinal values, the tribe had long been geared towards gathering rather than hunting. While they maintained some (but not much, by Miqo’te standards) of their hunting rites and rituals through the post-Ice generations, much of the Fay-culture that developed in the Twelveswood revolved around nature, care-taking and of course, the moon. While unorthodox to the neighbouring Keeper clans (who often stigmatized them in earlier years for their ‘weak’ ‘disgraceful’ behaviour), the Fay were ultimately left to pick and prune as they liked, as they became known throughout the wood for their neutrality and healing of both sides during tribe-wars (much like doctors). For this reason, as well as their easily distinguishable pearly females, speculation turned to rumour that these were messengers of the Moon Goddess herself, Lover of them all. Therefore it was not unusual for an outsider to refer to the Fay as “Moon-hands.”
Despite a sincere desire to help and heal, the Fay, particularly the women, were known for being selective (*cough*snobbish*cough*) when it came to mating. By Miqo’te traditions they were undesirable – they were not huntresses and neglected their race’s value of “strength.” Even so the “suitors” were abundant, as Keeper-families hoped that by mating their offspring to Moon-hands they would receive priority in situations of medical need (which was true.) Fay of either gender could perform several useful duties to clans, acting as guests of religious rites, healers of warriors, mid-wives, etc. The females were tenacious and the males, serene, making them highly attractive in “spirit.” Consequently, they were also quite skilled with the working of wood.

The Family

Character Connections

One may know Luna from:

• Her family's business.
• Wandering the Twelveswood. (She could ask you for directions, require assistance with rabid roses, etc…)
• Likewise being stranded in the Twelveswood during the Calamity. (She didn’t quite make it to the Battle… traffic and fire-balls.)
• Hearing of the “Moon-hands.” (Typically just Miqo’te.)
• Growing up in Limsa Lominsa. (Applicable to anyone, really. Luna would get bored enough to talk to a post.)
• Saving her when she fell into a river and nearly drowned. (And then they could be friends!)
• Being victim of her sticky fingers. (… She could give it back?)
• Purchasing her herbal (or other...~) wares.
• Taking pity on a green adventurer.
• Requiring her healing aid. (As she passes by.)
• Recognizing and wishing to develop her natural talent in conjury. (Doesn’t have to happen, but then she could be less useless in battle!)
  

Trivia & Miscellaneous

Her signature is a cursive crescent moon, star and wings, all run as one.
Luna has kleptomania.
Time of day affects her mood and bearing.
Her connection to nature may be attributed to a latent power in conjury/white magic. I do primarily play a healer OCly.
Originally Luna was based off Kunoichi (I still have an intention to make her a Ninja...), but she may now also bear resemblance to Luna Lovegood and Yona, if anyone's seen Snowpiercer.
