Althena Locke {pronounced All-theen-ah Lah-k} is a commoner within Ul'dah who's family has done well for themselves. The daughter of Cyril Locke, a man who works with all metals, she lives what is a comfortable life in Ul'dah. The woman is known to be both skilled with the sword and her magics as a Conjurer, preferring to heal rather than harm. Prone to traveling great lengths for business she can be found almost anywhere within Eorzea but is rarely seen out of the company of close friend, Chika Ito, or any within the Free Company she associates herself with.

Height: Below Average (will have height when I have access to the Character) || Weight: Average || Age: Twenty Years

Hair Color: Red with Black Lowlights || Eye Color: Electric Blue || Skin Tone: Tanned

Everything starts with a first impression. A first glance is simple, a pretty young Midlander with a bright smile on her face. But there is more to that upon a closer look. First to look at is her back. A strange thing to take notice of but if you look at her closely this is one of the things that could quite possibly make one realize what she is like. Her back remains straight in most situations. Rarely is she slouched or showing anything less but a proper, straight back. Shoulders are pulled back to further accentuate such and this is simple as to why she holds herself in such a proud stature. Not only is she proud of who she is but this is implemented in her training and as well as looked favorably on by her father. The girl shows natural curves of an average woman with a petite neck moving to well rounded breasts. Her chest and ribs tapering down to a proper sized mid section and then into wide hips. These hips moving on to curve into her long legs that end in petite, dancer's feet. Muscle adorns her form from her exercise and constant activity, leading to her having some toning. When she walks there is a gentle grace to the way she does so, as if she is born to be a dancer rather than anything else in the world. Looking to her hands one can find she has long fingers, the skin soft with slight callouses from the hard work she puts herself through but nothing harrowing to mar the delicacy of her hands. The young woman is below the average height standing at xx fulms and xx ilms and overall weighing in at xxx ponz.

Her flesh is that of a tanned coloration from living in the harsh deserts of Ul'dah and constantly being outside of her home. There are occasions when a sunburn will touch her skin but this isn't often as she has learned how to make sure she doesn't get one after growing up in the Lalafellen city-state. Her face is oval if shape and the features of her face is quite proportional. Her lips are full and can be seen pursed together when she is in thought. Her teeth straight and white, well taken care of and can be seen biting her lower lip in a nervous habit when she is unsure. Her nose small and slightly upturned at the tip, wrinkling when she finds something in distaste or is annoyed. These are little ticks that can be seen on the woman. Her eyes are round and nearly almond in shape, expressive in every detail. It is hard to mask her own emotions as she is fairly expressive. Irises are a bright, electric blue, startling in contrast to the tan of her skin and the dark red of her hair. The long strands of her hair come to just below her shoulder blades when let down. The color a dark red with what seems to be black lowlights but it is simply a darker red. However, she is prone to putting her hair up, mostly with braids and a ponytail to keep it up, however her bangs will settle in front of her face from time to time and she can be found blowing them up when they are in the way.

Personality

A heart of gold. That is the first thing one will learn about Althena. The young woman has learned from a young age that you help others where you can but don't be afraid to take care of yourself first. This was the first rule instilled on her when she was a child. Always ready to offer a sweet and kind smile to a stranger, there is nothing but kindness in the girl's heart. However, she is not naive. She grew up in Ul'dah where things are known to be ruthless and cut throat. She has seen the darkness of the world up close and personal in her life but that doesn't stop her from having hope that there is good in all of those around her. She has been known to give food to the hungry and spare a gil where she can, even if it isn't much. It is why she is a healer rather than a fighter.

It is well known she has a wanderer's feet and often will disappear without a second thought. Though for most of her life she has been tethered to one place or another. With new found freedom she has been exploring the world more and more and falling in love with her country even more so. But to her, nothing does compare to the barren desert of Ul'dah and the hidden beauty that it has. There is one thing she has fallen in love with though. She is prone to gardening since she had taken a trip to Gridania in her youth. Very fond of growing things and watching them flourish. It is what she enjoys as a past time.

To learn more about her I implore that you meet her in character.

Hobbies and Professions

If there are things that the woman is proud of, it is what she is capable of. Things she has developed over the years of her life and still is working hard to perfect.

Business Woman

It is to be known that the young woman is to take up her father's business and what her father does is simple among many things. Althena is learning how to network the people around her and make connections throughout Eorzea but for more than just keeping Free Companies informed of one another. She has been known to establish trades, set up transportation, as well as make sure that others have lodging in local inns or with local Free Companies of most areas. This also allows her to keep tabs on the people around her as well as figure out where her father's product is at any given time. What this product is will not be disclosed and she will not mention it if ever. This is the most serious aspect of her life and she takes her work very seriously. She is very happy to be known as the middle man in most transactions as it makes her feel useful. So as of now she is working on establishing herself in the world of business.

Healer

Magic is something that comes naturally to her. The flow of aether as normal to her as breathing is. The art of Conjuring is something that she picked up when she spent time in Gridania in her youth. A decision made out of necessity and want to help others.
