Appearance & Personality

Xiriah is likely one of the tallest female Miqo'te you'll ever encounter, and if she didn't proudly show off her ears and tail she might just have been mistaken for a small Highlander. She is strong, but as most Miqo'te, not visibibly muscular. Her hair is dark blue, shoulder length, and mostly tied up with various braids and ponytails.

Her outfits vary a lot, but she generally wears heavy armors suiting her role as a warrior, often with feminine details and always a skirt.

Due to her past involving brawling brutes and pirates, Xiriah seems rude and careless, especially if you haven't proven yourself to her. Unless you can instantly impress her with your presence, you'll likely have to work to get to know her. She will not work to get to know you. If you do get to know her, it turns out that she has a relaxed attitude about most situations, and tries to make even the most boring things seem like fun.

When it comes to work she puts on a serious face, preferring to get it over with as fast as possible. If she has a goal in mind, she works hard to attain it, sometimes overlooking other important matters and the needs of others. She does however get incredibly happy when drinking.

Biography

Xiriah was born on a cold winter night to a small family in Coerthas. The family hailed from a mountain village in (Doma or someplace), from which they had escaped. Coerthas was however not ideal for them, the climate was even colder than what they were used to, and the Ishgardians not too friendly to the newcomers. Most of the travelers continued south, but Xiriah's parents were for some reason conviced to stay (sickness? people die?) Xiriah was soon adopted by a Hyur couple in a village outside Ishgard. Her adoptive father was a merchant, and on rare occasions he would make the travel to Limsa Lominsa to trade goods. In her early teens, Xiriah got to join him on a voyage, after nagging him forever about "never having left the village". Before they made it back, they got news that their village had been attacked and they had nothing to return to.

She started to frequent the Wolves Den, soon becoming a favorite brawler among the peers. She'd earn her living by fighting, and eventually the Maelstrom would spot her talents. Their terms seemed "fair enough" to Xiriah, and she became determined that since she had managed to climb to the top among the Den's lawless brawlers, she could do the same in one of Eorzea's grand companies. She struggled at the bottom of the ranks for quite some time, getting in fights with other newcomers and not always doing well on missions. Her driking habits got worse as she didn't always spend time with Limsa's finest, and ended up losing her fame in the Wolves Den. Eventually, broken from not being able to do better for the Maelstrom or herself, she got on a mercenary ship and left the city to seek fortune elsewhere. She returned to Limsa again some years later, having gained more experience and a new set of mind, ready to conquer again.

In more recent times she found her way to Kugane, and ended up moving there.
