I’ve had enough hurt already in my life. More than enough. ❞ Appearance Eyes Hair Skin Build Voice White, foggy White, slightly wavy White, smooth Lithe, effeminate Sultry, harmonic Bearing Laterality Scars Markings Style Graceful, cautious Right-handed None None Dancer garb, silks Hair & Eyes Serdtsevina is possessed of near-shoulder length white hair, of which the quality is primarily straight - save for subtle, wavy silhouette. It is quite soft, alike to down feathers, and well-taken care of despite such appearance as lends an unkempt nature to it. The courtesan's eyes are milky white, pupil appearing far paler and fogged than black - almost to the point it is scarce there. Physique & Markings Serdtsevina is a lithe, effeminate man - unnaturally small in comparison most Auri men, effectively a "runt" for all intents and purposes. His form is that of a dancer - subtle musculature hidden well beneath smooth snowy skin, a thin frame, long legs and delicate, beautiful hands. There is little to mar the unblemished white swath he cuts wherever he goes, save for severely discolored skin around his eyes; a product of terrible insomnia he has lived with for years. Hygiene & Attire Serdtsevina prides himself on being well-kept and clean, despite living in a climate which does not always make such things easy. As a courtesan, he must appear presentable and desirable at all times - and even were this not a necessity of his work, Serdtsevina has never been one for letting himself go dirty for long. His attire is that which one would expect of a high-class entertainer such as he; silks, satin, jewels and silver glittering at all angles, decorative coins jingling along his hips from sashes and belts, tiaras and coronets that would befit royalty. All of this and more - Serdtsevina is expensive, and whether intentionally so or not, he looks the part. Personality Psychological Profile Aloof and distant, Serdt lets few people see him as he really is, preferring to remain apart from others so he doesn't get hurt. One could say he wears many masks: that of a courtesan, mystifyingly attentive and with a sultry undercurrent to every movement, every action or word; that of a sociable upper-class citizen, eager to spend afternoons discussing anything from Ul'dahn politics to new tea blends; even beyond that, a man who is kind and far more gentle than he wishes to let on, a man who has seen too many hardships and come away the worse for them. There are too many layers which stand between the outside world, and the broken soul hidden beneath smiles and silk; few may ever hope to peel through all of them. Speech Serdtsevina is a well-spoken individual, his voice carrying subtle regal undertones; though despite his origins lying outside Eorzea, he carries no distinct accent or strange vocal tics that would be noticed as odd by native speakers. Just as with his personality, Serdtsevina's speech can ebb and flow into various forms, akin to water which fits itself anywhere it wishes. He can speak as properly and gracefully as a high-born noble - too easily, really, for one who supposedly has not come from such brood - and other times swear as heartily as a Lominsan pirate, though he is more akin to do the former than the latter. His vocabulary is equal parts common and learned, and while one moment Serdtsevina could be speaking to someone as easily and normally as any other, the next he could be speaking as if a poetic giving form to thoughts, an artist shaping air into beautiful paintings brought to life with nothing more than a voice. Mannerisms Outwardly, Serdtsevina may appear to have little in the way of particular quirks or subtle, unconscious movements - at least, none which would stand out as odd or unusual, no more so than the everyday mannerisms of any other within the realm. Yet look closer, or catch him when he is unawares, and you would begin to see things which heavily tell of the man's disability, as well as the efforts taken to keep it from hampering his day to day life. Serdtsevina has a habit of tilting his head towards noises, sounds, or voices - the latter more so than the former two, perhaps an unconscious attempt to seem as though he is making eye contact with the speaker; a polite gesture, meant to hide the fact he cannot see another's gaze at all. Similarly, the courtesan tends to run fingers across surfaces - walls, corners, doorways, even foliage - perhaps in an effort to envision them, but more than likely a habit brought on by his need to orient himself at all times to locations. Sometimes, he may even reach out and touch upon or trace over another's features... but rarely would the man do so in public, and especially not so with those he has only just met or barely knows. Impropriety as well as a wariness to grow so close to another outside of business arrangements keep this particular unconscious action at bay. Preferences Likes ● Tea. All sorts - especially chamomile ● Rain. The sound, or even the touch.. ● Dancing. It helps.. ● Animals. Especially small fluffy ones! ● Quiet. No need for a mask. ● Books. Even if he can't read them.. ●Purring. ♡ Dislikes ● Attachment. Never again.. ● Unwanted contact. Either he allows it or it doesn't happen. ● Manipulators. Speak truth or not at all. ● Walking home at night. ... Quirks ● Ghost. He may as well be, to many. ● Say again? He has a habit of tilting his head towards people, angling a horn to them rather than facing. ● Stay still. He fidgets when nervous or uncomfortable.

Truly didst I feel great sorrow and regret for your plight, sister.

But you've never minded, have you? All you've done is give me a new life, and cared for my health even as I seem to forget all the things required by my body in order to keep functioning.

I am weary, frightened.. for truly are you insanity in purest form; malady beloved, that which lay unerring claim upon my soul. My every thought ravaged, sanctity of solitude corrupted in radiance as blinds me anew. Ever do you shine alike summer's chosen, angelic splendor what intoxicates piteous whore as I... wintry nightmare melted beneath tender caress of heavenly warmth. Sweetest predator at my throat; and oh, how I want you. Impossibly.. desperately. Consume me.. such is desire as beckons forth, morn to eve - sleepless nights familiar, yet cause ever differed. For my heart sings when you are near, a dirge when we are parted; know I that your voice cajoles this broken body breath anew, your touch begs fire through my veins. To know the depths of your heart, is my wish... even as I fear to show you mine own. For still are we seasons meant nay collide, who yet dance temptation. But would you still wish of my step, if you looked upon the beast I am beneath..? Mess me up; for already have you ruined me. For my every thought is consumed of naught but your scent, your promise... my senses assailed of memento, reminiscence as threaten drown me beneath endless sea. Khaz... you terrify me. For denial cannot hide admittance any longer. And so I beg of you... linger a moment more. Gift another smile, one last laugh; smother me in the essence of your soul.

And just as with savior cruelest, he of shadowed wake and Cheshire grin... so too, feel I as though you hide pain. Deep, relentless pain; you spurn the world, decry those as reside upon earthen soil... afraid to trust, afraid to care. I.. know only too well, such solitude as this. Perhaps presumptuous is it to think, but so still does wonderment find of nature beyond that as claimant figure wrought sea-swept breeze and faraway wood. A puzzle likened to nay be solved by hand mine own - but so may this be for the best.

Know I nay, whether such language of Eorzea yet eludes - or if veritable ruse hadst you shown. Yet together we suffered, and together we pled in ways our own for life spared of prisoner opposing; so too, didst escape find us both with aide of repentant souls. From slaver pens of pleasure dolls were I thusly saved... and from the sea's depths, were you. You are warrior, stoic and unrelenting. A sword belonged to no man; so chose you raise for mine behalf. Wounded savior inscribed within memoir.. full glad am I, martyr nay. Perhaps winds may yet find of paths crossed anew, but whether so passes, to you owe I much - and I will not soon forget, Khai."

And yet... and yet I sense pain in you. Deep pain.. familiar pain. Perhaps I assume too much, in this. But regardless of all else, you saved me from a fate worse than death - for that, I owe you a great debt I may never be able to repay. But I hope you will allow me to try, somehow.. someday.

N P C . ◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely! ■ “Ye' e'er 'ear tell o' that ghostly courtesan in Ul'dah? Male, 'e is, yet as fair an' petite as if 'e were some princess from a faraway land. Picks an' chooses 'is clients to 'is likin' rather than jus' by the gil they throw.. some would give anything t' 'ave even a single night wit' the lad.” - Limsan pirate ■ “Serdtsevina? Of course I know him - any courtesan in Ul'dah has to, seeing as he rakes in enough gil from a single night that many of us wouldn't even see in a week. I don't know what it is that's so amazing about him - he looks like a bloody ghost.” – Ul'dahn 'courtesan' ◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first! ■ “Ye'd think a whore'd be used to lyin' on their back and spreadin' their pretty little legs for anyone what throws coin, but not that one. Not what I heard tell, anyroad - some merchant with a gullet the size of three lalafells was complainin' 'bout it here, few days back. Guess all the money in the world can't get the piss-ugly some fun, eh?” – Ul'dahn miner ■ “Heard tell there's been a man what frequents his home far more oft than is typical of even... that profession. Young Miqo'te lad, last I were told. Had the strangest thing on his arm, too... odd to think, what a sort as that would have going with someone the likes of Serdtsevina. – Goblet merchant ◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using! ■ “He smiles a lot more now, you know? The poor thing's been here for years, and I've rarely ever seen him smile... and when he does, it's always been so sad. Like there's so much pain hidden beneath that pretty face. But ever since that boy came around... well. You didn't hear it from me - but I think he may have finally found someone to smile for again.” – Katherine, Ul'dahn potwatch ■ “-----” – ~

P C . ◢ Player Character Rumors - Feel free to add rumors of your own! ■ "Watch your filthy fuckin’ mouth and where you’re lookin’. He’s no one’s whore. Wanna know what he is? Mine. You heard right, gotta problem with that? Didn’t think so." - Khaz ■ "...Ah, yes. I’ve heard rumor tell he was nearly attacked one night... and wouldn’t you believe who came to his rescue? They say it was The Reaper. Fallacy I say, but troubling nonetheless. I fear for Serdtsevina's safety should even an inkling of truth merit such rumor." - The White Wolf ■ "I can't stand the sight of how he cowers. It reminds me of what I once was, and I hate it. The way he looks at me like I'm gonna slap him, it's sickening. These hands don't take innocent lives anymore. His fear is misplaced and achingly familiar. Part of me almost wants to help him, but.... that's impossible with t'way he sees me now." - Chip ■ "(To be added)" - [~]

P E R S O N A L    R P    E T I Q U E T T E My Do’s & Don’t’s Consent. PLEASE. DISCUSS. IDEAS. WITH. YOUR. PARTNER. Ideas are absolutely wonderful, especially so when directly involving someone else's character - and I will be more than happy to brainstorm and talk about them so long as they are consented to on both sides. But please ensure I have given you the go-ahead to continue on with them before you actually plan anything out - do not throw life-altering or traumatizing situations at I or my muse completely out of the blue. Permanent or even temporary imprisonment of any form is something that should always be done with mutual agreement between all involved parties. Please note this includes all forms of imprisoning: physical, mental, and emotional. If at any point your character plans to somehow confine mine - regardless of means - you must first discuss this with me! Forcing any sort of "bond" or "tether" is also counted as a form of imprisonment. In short, if at any point Serdtsevina's free will is impeded this is a form of imprisonment and is not okay without my consent. The need for consent and heavy discussion also extends to any injuries your character plans to inflict upon mine, minor or otherwise - physical or mental. If it involves my characters in any way, I ask that you first speak to me - my permission is required for anything regarding them. This also technically extends to any sort of gift art - unless it is of Serdtsevina by himself, doing nothing, I ask that you please discuss any artwork ideas you have with me before doing so. Whether it is IC development or OOC things, please respect me as a writer and respect my characters as people - do not plagiarize my concepts and always ask first. Mirroring. “Mirror-RP” is when an RPer tries to match or “mirror” the length and style of their RP partner. I’ll be honest and say I don’t think it’s a great idea. I encourage individualism — we are all unique and how we write is unique to us. Please don’t try to “mirror” my RP length/style - if you can't match my length, it's okay! If I can't match yours, I would also hope this is okay! We all write in varying lengths, and sometimes one of us may not have a lot to say or do for our character in a scene, save for a small interjection. This is totally okay, so please don't feel as though you need to match me word length for word length in order to RP with me - I'd much rather have small posts than have my partner get overwhelmed or tired out due to trying to match my pace. Take pride in your own writing no matter the length or style! Exceptions. While I’d consider myself a “mature roleplayer” there are a few exceptions and things I just won’t RP. No rape plots. ERP will only happen between my character and whomever he has chosen to form a relationship with - do not pressure I or my character, ICly or OOCly, for sex scenes. Please respect my character's marital status; Serdtsevina is not someone who will cheat, and I will not become involved in adultery plots. Drug usage and violence can be discussed. Plot-Driven. I love creating storylines, especially with my RP partners! "Tavern" RP is also fun, and I definitely don't mind meet-and-greet types of scenes (I even prefer them to start out with!), but I'd like to build upon foundations laid out and really get the characters involved in all manner of things together, be it adventure, drama, or even just some slice-of-life stuff. Nitpicking. Please don't do this. I by no means mind questions for clarification purposes, or pointing out any majorly grievous typos you find in my writing - but please do not nitpick every single thing in my response due to not liking how I have worded something or simply feeling you cannot understand it as presented. If it becomes that much of a problem, we more than likely do not mesh well as RP partners. So rather than attempt to force me to change any small detail to your liking, I ask you simply do not continue attempting to RP with me. It will make us both happier. Lore. I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve got a lot to learn about the world of Eorzea but also really enjoy adding my own flavor to the mix. While I won’t blatantly break any lore that I’m aware of (and will do my best to correct things should lore surface down the pipeline as patches come out), I like to be creative and have a little uniqueness in my own characters, as well as headcanon lore stuff where there is lack of information. All I ask is that if you are very lore heavy, just be civil. If you notice something of mine contradicts the official lore in any way let me know. Other Stuff Posts. My posts can be considered "para" by RP standards, and I am one of the dreaded "purple prose" writers. If you dislike long or wordy replies, let me know and I will do my best to adjust accordingly - but do not ask me to completely change my writing style for you. When it comes to in-game RP, I will always attempt to keep my posts within manageable length to accommodate the flow of face-to-face RP, as well as be considerate of our surroundings (and also keep in mind chatbox text limitations). Where. I tend to favor RP outside of the actual game and generally prefer doing most of my RPing via PM on the RPC, shared Google Docs, or Discord. In-game RP is something I do plan to do sparingly, but if you prefer this, I will gladly meet with you for some casual RP! When. I’m CST, and usually work 8am to 2:30 or 3pm on weekdays. I check RPC often during the day, though, and can usually have responses ready within a few hours of getting home - at most, a day or two after. Contact Me. If you’re interested in RPing with me but can’t get ahold of me in-game, you’re welcome to contact me via PM/E-mail through the RPC, or Asks/Messenger on Tumblr!

Potential Plot Hooks ■ Ex-courtesan Though having left the profession to pursue a life with his beloved, Serdtsevina remains yet a common name amongst Ul'dahn nobility and those of wealthy mercantile class - and oftentimes, even elsewhere within the realm... however in frequency far scarce. Perhaps you were a former client, at one point in time - whom could pay exorbitant amounts for a mere few hours of conversation? Or mayhap a fellow courtesan having once worked alongside or in differed guild... whether as friendly compatriots, or supposed rivalry? 'Tis possible you are merely a curious sort, willing to seek out a rumored beauty who disappeared from upper society... ■ Ul'dah Having made home within Ul'dahn walls for over a decade, 'twould not be uncommon to have possibly run across the likes of Serdtsevina - whether a mere passerby as once glimpsed ethereal snow, or even a merchant unexpectantly graced of business from the effeminate raen. Perhaps you have even heard the ' 'rumors' ', about a particular pit fighter oft seen travelling to where resides Serdtsevina amongst the Goblet... ■ TBA ~
