GENERAL APPEARANCE: Upon initial impression, Hestia comes off to most she meets as either intimidating or petulant. She is tall by typical Midlander standards, yet far too short by those of the Elezen. Her heritage is more clearly expressed by her elongated ears - for better or worse. Despite her amalgam stature, the severe woman still manages to uphold an air of frigidity about her that either causes people to gravitate toward her or pushes them away. A typically icy touch accompanies her somewhat pale complexion; the faintest of colour due to what sun exposure she permits herself offers some rouge to her cheeks. Her long umber tresses reach almost abnormally past her waist - a strange feature for an elite knight - which she often wears braided or tied up and kept out of her face. When casually about, Hestia instead has a tendency to wear her hair down or loosened from her tight updos. It is mostly straight when properly handled, but retains some volume and curl without meticulous brushing.
The woman’s gaze is perhaps the most expressive part of her person. Most assume them to be purely a crimson hue, but upon closer inspection one might note that the half-Elezen’s eyes are in fact heterochromatic: originally pure hickory in colour, they are now almost entirely dominated by a bright ruby shade. Her eyes speak more than she ever will, and often contrast greatly over her desaturated visage.
SCARS & MARKINGS: Having committed nearly the entirety of her adolescent life to learning the art of war, Hestia has her fair share of stories that mark her body. Mostly small faded scars from expeditions or outrunning notorious monsters, she tended well to their healing to ensure their permanence is at least subtle. Even still, some were simply too severe to fully mend. Vertically across her belly and slightly spread over her back are the remnants of a large and gruesome impalation scar obtained through a campaign in Gyr Abania. Accompanying such from the same campaign is a bullet scar on the back of her left forearm.
Her stern visage is characterized with a pronounced scar marking her left brow, seemingly just barely missing her eye. Upon her forehead is her family’s brand, a mysterious marking whose purpose remains unknown to most. Last but not least, a dark beauty mark decorates the woman's upper lip, a feminine touch to her hardened countenance.
VOICE: Hestia’s voice sets the stage for first impressions: it typically sounds monotonous, but still retains a sonorous intonation that often comes across as irritation toward those around her. She speaks only when necessary, and always with the eloquence of a cultured woman. However, Hestia is not always serious. Those close to her will find her tone more silvery in nature, and her draconian persona reined in, but only when she is comfortable enough to do so. Hestia has learned several languages over the course of her time studying in linguistics, which is a personal hobby of hers. Perhaps as a result of this, her voice resonates with an odd sort of unrecognizable accent - one not overpowering, but certainly noticeable.
The half-Elezen is a talented and well-practiced singer, low and melodical in range, with a soft, clear timbre that speaks of hidden power in her voice. It is starkly different from her usual astringent tone. In fact, one might consider her singing voice quite appealing if they happen to hear it, but only a select few ever get the opportunity to find out; Hestia does not often sing in public.
ATTIRE: Hestia’s fashion-sense constitutes one of her few outlets of feminine expression. Aside from her Dragoon regalia routinely worn in field of work, she is surprisingly fashionable when it comes to day-to-day wear. From flowing skirts with billowing blouses to high-waisted pant suits, the young woman is always sure to stay up to date on the latest in Ishgardian couture. Despite the expected aesthetic of this outlet, Hestia is typically known to wear whatever theme she feels herself drawn toward. From lighter pastels to darker, harrowing hues, her chosen attire is a reflection of her mood for the day and whichever flavored chic she might find herself drawn to. Due to this, her chosen ensemble can likewise range from overtly feminine, to completely masculine.
Jewelry is commonplace in Hestia’s attire. Although perhaps strange considering her modish inclinations of clothing choice, the woman often wears vintage accessories, and never modern minted ornaments. Typically wearing hand-me-downs or gifts from friends, her jewelry is almost always something with sentiment behind it, such apparently having more value to her than that of actual fashionability.
Easily described as typically dour and otherwise monotonous, Hestia is the walking embodiment of focus and ambition. At purely face value, it would appear to most her only emotions are disinterest and irritation. Hard to sway from the path she sets before herself, the girl is all work and no play… mostly. While almost uncomfortably serious during most of all interaction with anyone not considered close to her, people who spend enough time digging through those thorns might find a surprisingly curious and playful young woman. Holding a great desire for knowledge gaining, a love for music and the arts, Hestia may be on the grouchier side but she is far from a mean or boring individual.
While her expression typically offers a different narrative, Hestia is a tough loving sort of woman; caring quite deeply over the safety and care of most people and animals, if not through a more forward approach. One aspect of Hestia that can often seep through even her more crankier displays is her stubborn pride. Such hubris, typically in her abilities, has more often than not caused her more issues then she might care to admit. While the girl always means well, she has a tendency of pushing both herself and others too far.
The Half-Elezen is rather devoted to her divine studies, dedicating a great deal of her studies to the Twelve while prioritizing the teachings of her patron deity, Halone. To the young woman, worshipping the gods is not enough, it is nothing. Her ambition leads her down the path of embodying the very being of the Fury.

Hestia is a younger woman of surprising martial prowess. Having trained from a very young age to wield a variety of weaponry, she excels in physical combat. Above all else, Hestia has dedicated most of her time alive to wielding a polearm, to follow in the image of her goddess, Halone. The Half-Elezen is powerful as she is fierce. There is not a day that passes that she does not dedicate some of her time to training her body and keeping fit.
A healthy body however, calls too for a healthy mind. Diplomatic, well spoken, and rounded in the art of strategy from years of pouring over countless texts, Hestia knows how to talk war, nearly as much as she knows how to plan for it. Text however, can vary greatly from the real thing. While well versed in her readings, it is not to say the fear of falling short of perfection has not, or cannot lead to the young woman's downfall from time to time.
While fit as a fiddle, considering her past health and well instructed, Hestia still suffers greatly in the field of magic. Past illness makes it difficult for her not only to cast magic, but to receive healing from it as well. Thus making any injury she might receive on a battlefield, a liability. While her training in becoming a Dragoon has forced her to put more effort into her practice with aether, it is still her weakest point both offensively and defensively.
Free-Company Combat Sheet:
- NULL⛤STAR System | Hestia de Bayle | Last updated 9/14/18
Hestia's current spear, bestowed upon her by the Holy See when she was formally inducted into the Knights Dragoon. If she has no reason to leave it behind, she will not as it is a symbol of her ambition.
A single, long ornate dagger Hestia keeps on her person at all times. She is not keen on ever being completely weaponless.
Hestia's previous spear since returning to the mainland. Despite having yet to name it, nor acquiring it by any special means, her lance does hold value to her. She always keeps it finely sharpened, and bound in leather during spars. While she may still bring it with her under certain circumstances, it has since been retired.
Hestia's journal. Anyone who might happen to get it cracked open, will find the entirety of it written in some odd language that most will be unable to understand. Certain pages have flowers pressed into them.
Hestia's personal chronometer. The young woman feels very strongly about her punctuality and will never be too early to enter a venue/leave for a mission, or be too late. Always exactly on the bell, making for the carrying of the time to be of the utmost importance.
A gold-plated fountain pen with ornate details etched onto its surface. Hestia brings it with her everywhere, as one never knows when something must be written.
Hestia's coin purse. The woman is particularly frugal, so her pouch is seemingly always jingling with gil. She finds little need to purchase things outside of necessity or gift for others, and therefore typically has money on hand.
Usually a tome containing some language of the sorts. Hestia enjoys the learning of a variety of languages, and therefore will keep at least one textbook at her if her satchel is on her. Sometimes it might be something more leisurely, but such a thing is unlikely.
Multiple potions given to her for safe-keeping. Hestia need carry potions with her as she finds healing by magic means to be difficult on her body.
These items are assumed to potentially be on Hestia's person. Those labeled as being regularly worn are always on her, while those labeled on occasion will be described to be on her person if worn.
Hestia's engagement ring, given to her by her partner, Killian. A bright silver band lined with rubies and diamonds with a larger diamond center. Etched along the inside of the band are the symbols of the Twelve. She wears it on her at all times, unless donning armour. Even then, she typically has it either tied around her neck, or safely tucked away somewhere on her figure.
Gift from Killian. Small pieces of carved crystals in the shapes of crudely made flowers and leaves. Shimmers in the light. While carried with her always, the bracelet is not always donned depending on Hestia's attire, often instead found in her satchel, or pocket instead.
A worn bracelet given to Hestia by Aeidida when she bumped into the woman in Ishgard. Certainly some turns old, it holds the appearance of a forget-me-not bracelet and being Elezen-sized, perhaps once belonging to a knights lover. It is usually worn wrapped twice over, due to its size.
A namesday gift given to her by Killian. It hold purple flowers encased in glass, held by an antique golden frame.
A handmade gift from Aedida. The gold is reshaped at the top to present a suitable place to mount two distinctly shaped pearls. Warped and overlarge, they have been fit together on the same gold plate no larger than the tip of a midlander thumb. The bottom cap had an attached trinket in the form of a very small, polished dark stone set in the same gold.
Aedida Aldricht - Nymeia - ♦ ♡ ●
|
---|
When Killian spoke to Hestia of a kind woman he had met out in Ul'Dah striking up a business opportunity with her, his wife was reasonably suspicious. Distrusting of those occupying Thanalan as it was, she feared this 'Miss Aldricht' to be taking advantage of her husbands kindness - almost immediately causing whatever impression she didn't have yet to be a negative one. However, such changed rather drastically upon meeting the woman. Hestia found her softer-spoken and smaller demeanor to be endearing, and their shared interests caused a draw to want to know her more; especially since Aedida seemed interested in hearing what Hestia had to say. Hestia has come to see Aedida as someone she trusts with surprising closeness, having never found someone so receptive of her affectionate gestures. Hestia decided on Aedida as her Nymeia after some interactions, claiming: "You embody the Spinner, by challenging fate where it would see you defeated." Along with choosing Aedida as her Spinner, the two have become sworn siblings, the woman now considered nothing less than Hestia's sister. Hestia took it upon herself to assist Aedida in rebuilding her old home in Abalathia, in the hopes of potential business prospect and also helping her friend. Together, the two began the Abalathaia Spine Village Reconstruction Project, or the ASVRP for short. ASSOCIATED MUSIC QUOTES

Astrelle de Bayle - Byregot - ⚯ ♦ ●

Of all of Hestia’s family, she is by far the closest with Astrelle. Lady of the House and twin sister to Guillemont, Hestia finds she and the middle sister have a great deal in common with one another. Both have a strong will and a desire to build their own path outside the consent of their family, Hestia has found herself on a few occasions sitting for bells with Astrelle and talking about things she might not otherwise share with anyone else. Hestia and Astrelle have very similar personalities, offering a very cold visage to most while having a surprisingly warm center. The youngest de Bayle admires the middle sister, finding comfort in the woman being one of the few female friends she has. GIFTS Given

Cinnabar Prentice - Menphina - ♦ ●

Someone Lenny brought back to the House before taking his leave, Cinnabar is an aspiring lancer with a particular admiration for Ishgardian culture. A stuttering but kind woman, her demeanor and stature also go entirely against the personality she has to offer people at first glance. Something Hestia can relate to. While the two could still be considered acquaintances, Cinnabar was responsible for leading Killian back to Dravania to seek Hestia out during a falling out. It is due to this, that Hestia feel she owes a debt to the Roegadyn, who without her assistance, she believes she might not have been able to mend her rocky relationship with her lover at the time.

Killian de Bayle - Azeyma - ⚭ 🌷 ●
|
---|
Previously Killian Waltz, Hestia met the man in Carline Canopy where she inquired to him about employment, the two have since had many interactions that led them down a path of many twists and turns. Killian is probably one of the few people Hestia has ever willingly put her guard down for after such a short period of time. His personality offered her nothing short of comfort and endearment, as she saw a pure light within him that reminded her why she fought for what she did, regardless of the issues that plague him. Over time the two grew very close, and while Hestia tried to subdue the growing feelings she held for the Hyur, it reached a boiling point after some long periods of loneliness had her confide in him for comforting. After some heartbreak and plenty of complication, Hestia agreed to being courted by Killian. Despite what her reluctance initially might have entailed, she loves the man dearly, and would do anything to keep him safe and happy. While the duo have reached rough patches in their relationship, with the help of friends and talking with one another, they were able to make it another day at each others sides. They were wed on the 29th sun of the Second Astral Moon. The two raise two puppies together named Mercy and Summer, and a cat named Petra. ASSOCIATED MUSIC SPAR SCORE Hestia: 2 | Killian: 1 QUOTES

Lawrence Wallace - Nald'Thal - ♦ ●
|
---|
Asked to be referred to as Law, he is a younger Elezen man Hestia found wandering about near Camp Tranquil. Warning him of the potential dangers of Morbols, she questioned Lawrence as to his reasons for being out there. After explaining he was working outside the law to search for a criminal, Hestia was swift to accuse him of being a vigilante, berating him some on his choices. The two almost immediately hit if off heatedly, them bickering at one another for some time before Hestia simply ended the conversation on a moral dilemma for Law to come to terms with on his own time, insisting that he come to her when he came to terms with the world he wanted to see made. Law is a zealous man, set in his ways and views good and evil as black and white. While this sort of mindset doesn’t particularly appeal to Hestia, she sees that he is a man of virtue and compassion who seeks to right the wrongs of the world they live in. Similar to herself and her own ambition. Something that differs from herself however, is that of Law's drops into self-doubt and fear. Often rather nervous when not focused and easy to rattle, she find this particular part of him a curious weakness. Since their meeting, the man comes to visit her often, discussing his philosophies and seeking her aid. He has agreed to be an ally of hers, and thus she depends on him for his help, offering her own in return when needed. While the two can be heated with one another, Hestia finds Law to be an honest confide. SPAR SCORE Hestia: 1 | Law: 0 QUOTES

Quarcy Questant - Thaliak - ♦ ●

An old friend of the Viscountess, brought into the House as a librarian. A strange, macabre sort of fellow, he verses himself plenty in the the grand study of literature and research stretching over many different cultures and subjects. Some perhaps darker than others. He is also know to be able to handle situations regarding the void and dark matters, something Hestia found to be of great use after an incident in the house got others killed. Since his arrival, Quarcy has been nothing but useful to Hestia. Providing her information and his services when needed, she has come to see him as a very reliable source. It is with that, that she came to depend on him as her Thaliak, being one of the most scholarly people she knows. His ability to provide her both his doubts and support, is something she highly respects. Has a hatchet fish named Witness that apparently feeds on sentient thoughts - also helps to run his library.

Rageant Lacordaire - Althyk - ♦ ●

A man who approached Hestia while she stood on duty as a Dragoon in Ishgard. Once the right-hand man of Father Isarn - the now deceased leader of the Black Sun Covenant, at the hands of the inquisition - the man Reageant who went by Ragi'zi, took up his mentors forename in memoriam. Since their meeting, Hestia has found herself drawn to Rageant's shared beliefs, them being quite similar in their stance on theology and morals. Their seemingly shared desire to hold an alliance with one another has made her view him as someone as close to a friend as she might allow, even with their short time knowing one another. She finds his unabashed honesty and forwardness, genuine. When it came to wanting him alongside her in her cadre, she found the decision to way heavily on her heart. The only god she saw fit for the man was that of the Keeper, both in demeanor and even in birthright. However, the title had become synonymous with that of her former lover, Siovant. Despite this, she decided she needed a voice of a reason - not the weight of her past - to help her continue forward on her path of righteousness.

Svana Heart - Oschon - ♦ ●
|
---|
A woman Hestia happened upon in Ul’Dah while watching a troupe play; the two seemed to hit it off well with pleasant enough conversation. Despite the rather awkward abandoning of an Au Ra who grew frustrated and irrate with Hestia, the two spent the rest of their evening back at the de Bayle estate talking over bread. The sun following, Hestia bumped into Svana once more within Carline Canopy - an encounter more than chance. Through some more prodding into Hestia, Svana decided to ‘accept’ the young half-Elezen's offer to be her ally, even offering her a friendly hug in return - much to Hestia's embarrassment. While Svana is a boisterous woman, Hestia finds some peace in her jovial attitude, it providing some relief from her typically dour persona. In time, Svana came to become a ward under the House, their name backing her gladiator competitions. After having dropped out from one of the House's joust nights, Svana and Hestia sat down some suns later where the woman apologized to Hestia for her shortcomings. Assuring her that the event is completely leisurly, they then took time to discuss the difficult times going on in Svana's life at that point, where Hestia attempted to comfort her. It was then she had mentioned also finding Oschon. From there, she expressed an interested in joining Hestia's cadre, claiming: "...Maybe it's easiest to say I've realized where I fall short of honoring a true understanding of living freely along the roadside, what I could have done, where I wish to go. Truth of it is, or so I suppose, that you might just be able to wander without losing yourself to the trail. Remain unbound, but not flee from what you find worthy along the way." QUOTES

Viscount of House De’bayle. Hestia held a great deal of respect for the man, and was rather willful to learn the art of being a Dragoon under him. In her time returned, the two have unfortunately seen very little of one another, due to the mans constant absence in the north for duties. Despite understanding the situation, this leaves Hestia bitter. Her ambition of becoming a Knights-Dragoon slowed and the Viscountess of the House typically left to her lonesome. While she does not hate Armont for this, some part of her is left disappointed. SPAR SCORE Hestia: 0 | Armont: 1 ⚠ Past Relation Show text |

Viscountess of House De’bayle. Hestia’s respect for the Lady of the house holds no bounds.

Baron of House De’bayle. Denz’s initial response to Hestia’s arrival home was mostly that of shock; having not expected there to be another De’bayle that he was unaware of. Since her eventual promotion to Baroness of the House as well, Hestia and Denz have found themselves both as confidants of one another and at eachothers throats. While it is clear that Denz views the girl through a jaded perspective of the world, seeing her ambition as far too wild to contain, Hestia see’s her cousin as a coward. Someone who would rather remain silent and ignorant than stand up for the good of the world. All in all, Hestia finds herself disappointed with Denz, seeing that he easily falls prey to the weakness of the the heart. A shame to her, as she sees the man is capable of far more than he believes. SPAR SCORE Hestia: 0 | Denz: 1 GIFTS Given

The first of her family to meet after her return from her travels, Guillemont welcomed Hestia back with a warm welcome despite the girl's initial confusion as to who he even was. Since her return a great deal has happened regarding her uncle. His eventual disappearance at the hands of questionable forces and reemergence as a man named Seisyll, caused the young woman and her lover a great deal of grief with all the circumstance revolving his absence over the moons of their searching for him. Their relationship especially declined after an encounter that saw them bickering with one another heatedly, followed with Guillemont slapping Killian. From there on relations only worsened, and eventually came to a boiling point before the bonding of her and Killian. Despite efforts to see the relationship mended, it was simply not meant to be.

A kind conjurer, and wife of Denz. Hestia’s initial views of Jancis were nothing but positive. However, as the two interacted more, the young woman found herself feeling mixed about Jancis and the presence the woman has in her life. Far too dedicated to her focus at hand, Hestia finds it difficult to find comfort in the memories Jancis wishes to share with her. Even more so, that she understands and accepts that she disappoints the Hyur by not holding to the same De’bayle spirit she might wish to see in her. As time passed, Hestia was able to grow more comfortable with Jancis' presence, and the maternal influence she wished to offer.

A |
A man Hestia first spotted at a Silver Table Accord get together, the two formally met one another at the De'bakery. Boisterous and if not also a bit crude, Ser Belliard is the stark opposite of what Hestia strives for. Overweight and somewhat lazy, the man prides himself in being more so the life of the party than he does making real strides toward improvement for either himself or his City-state. Despite such, Hestia feels no scorn toward him. Being an older Elezen - and a father at that - the man has offered plenty comfort to Killian. A certain paternal warmth he has never felt. Even though the Elezen’s prodding and teasing of her husband, Hestia can see clearly that Killian appreciates the Alex's attention, and therefore she finds him bearable as well. At least for the time being. |

Knight Captain of House De’bayle, Hestia finds Alleria to be a particularly odd woman. Her kind face matches her equally kind personality, and yet the woman worked under them as a knight. Having gotten a moment to question Alleria as to her reasoning's for picking up her blade and fighting, Hestia was left thoroughly disappointed with the woman’s lack of true ambition. Alleria eventually returned with a more firm vision to Hestia, but to the young Half-Elezen, a vision is only as meaningful as the force behind it. She hopes to have had ignited the idea within the Elezen woman, as that flame will be the driving force behind Alleria's action. |

There is one thing that Hestia is certain of Dalmar, since their chance meeting in the Canopy, and that is that he is by far one of the goofiest men she has ever met. Beaming with surprising enthusiasm, Hestia made a quick friend in the ruffian-wannabe. She worries for Dalmar, who often doesn't take care of himself or think highly of himself, or even gets himself stuck in the wrong crowd. Sometimes acting more mother-like to the man than she probably should, she tries to see that he is cared for, even if he makes a stink of it each time.

Elexia Renard - ●

Met as Alexis Arteme, Hestia's initial impression on the seemingly skittish Hyur that trailed her husband like a duckling was more or less indifference. She respected that the girl viewed Killian so highly, and thus saw her as a good influence in his life to help his confidence. However, upon learning of a strange stone she bestowed upon Killian, Hestia's impression of Miss Arteme could not be any more sour. Viewing her as the woman who gave Killian idea's that could put him in great danger - and even more, cause him to scorn his wife - there was a rift broken between the two of them. She viewed the Hyur as a cur upon her relationship, and felt nothing more than seething fury toward her over what she has done. While the situation did blow over with nothing substantially bad happening, Hestia doubts she will be seeing the girl again any time soon. |

A rather persistent, and still ever mysterious man Hestia met while on Dragoon duty; Elias seems dead-set on pulling conversation from Hestia and spending time with her. The young woman can't quite wrap her head around why someone so talkative or casual would enjoy her company, but she hasn't gone out of her way to make him go away. Hestia actually quite likes Elias' attempt of friendship, as not many like him try for such in light of her thorny persona. In their time together, Elias has also struck up a business partnership with Killian, via his own company Rose & Thorne. His kindness toward Killian and willingness to look past his difficulties, has made Elias a good man in her book. |

Hestia quite likes Fiona, finding the other woman's love for her study quite endearing. She hopes Fiona will find a similar fondness, and seek more of the girls company in the future, if not to just learn more languages, at least. Hestia watched Fiona pace about the Pillars one evening on duty, only to find out of something tragic the befell the woman. Taking her back to her home and offering her some condolences, they eventually left in higher-spirits. Fiona followed up such with a request that Hestia accompany her as she sought out vengeance for what happened. While somewhat hesitant due to the nature of the excursion, Hestia complied and took along two of her cadre members.

Gerel Kha - ●
|
---|
An older Xaela woman Hestia only heard of from Killian for the longest time. During her brief visits to Magical Misc. - a now closed shop of miscellaneous items - Hestia had the honour to finally meet the woman that had bestowed upon Killian one of his most treasured belongings: a book written in the tactile language only he can understand. Much to Killian’s dismay, the shop closed that evening after seeing Gerel one last time, and he losing one of his jobs with it. Somewhat disheartened by Killian’s sadness and fear in never seeing Gerel again, Hestia sought out the woman to come participate in Killian’s first namesday. More than just joining, the Xaela assisted Hestia in perfecting her gift for her husband, along with baking him a special cake for the event. Having helped to reconnect the woman back with Killian, they now remain connected through more than just him. Hestia hopes in time, Gerel might assist her in her curiosity revolving around the theology of the East. |
Ghalleon Helseth - ●
|
---|
Upon being delivered a seemingly out of the blue missive, Hestia was set to meet its sender 'Sir Helseth', who not only spoke of her in such high regard, but was also a son of the Fury. Replying to his letter posthaste, the two met with one another within the House's bakery to discuss interests, along with some slight touches into theology. After such, it had been time again before meeting once more, that being at the Grindstone. While the two discussed, they were approached by a Hyur woman who managed to do little more than infuriate Hestia with her beliefs. While finding trouble in appropriately talking down this woman, Ghalleon succeeded in being more of a mediator, and keeping a level head. Hestia respects this in the man, and looks to involve him more in future endeavors of the House. GIFTS Recieved

Hikari Inamoto - ●
|
---|
Found wandering about in the muds of South Shroud's Camp Tranquil, Hestia and Denz sought out Hikari due to her involvement with Guillemont, who had gone missing. Noticing a certain resolve and strength within the woman, Hestia found herself drawn to Hikari’s loving nature, wanting to be a hand to help support the Highlander in her endeavors. Returning her back to the estate to be washed up and redressed, in time Hikari found herself a place within the House. Denz took Hikari under his wing in teaching her how to use a greatsword. After an alarming incident reached Hestia’s ears, one that great differed from the Hikari she knew, Hestia found herself growing fearful of both what Hikari might become and her cousins methods. Given the time to brood over such thoughts, Hestia eventually came to terms with trusting the woman. While she may not ever be able to fully trust Denz, she did not want to be one to enable brewing feelings of insecurity within her new friend. Hikari was once considered Hestia's 'Menphina', but due to slow and steady distance, this is no longer the case. QUOTES

Hitokiri - 🍂 ⚖ ♦ ●
|
---|
Hestia’s long time instructor and one of her guardians. The man is strict as he was often times gloomy. Reluctantly taking the girl under his wing in the beginning, at the insistent request of Serick and by letter of her mother, their beginning turns were rocky ones. His training on such a young girl could be potentially be deemed as cruel or unfair for someone who was of her stature, but despite this he is a pivotal reason in Hestia’s growth. Over time, the two warmed up to one another through small gestures, and what started out a cold relationship the held tensions between both sides for different reasons, became a genuine friendship. At least as much of a relationship as Hito could have with a person. The mans dour persona rubbed off on the girl some, and in their time together Hestia learned many things about the man. Even in his attempts at keeping his personal life, his past, to himself. Hito is one of the people Hestia respects the most in her life, and while she can often seem ungrateul over his methods, knows she would be nowhere without them. She hopes to the man, that she was able to be the successful pupil she learned he always wanted. While the girl might never admit it, she is fully of the understanding that she might never get to see Hito again. While such an idea is devastating to her, she would never openly display such.

Jebe Qestir - ♦ ●
|
---|
A mute Xaela man Hestia approached during the Golden Gala. While obviously the two have shared very little words with one another, in fact, none at all - Hestia finds Jebe to be a kind man with a welcoming presence. Hestia knows just about nothing on the man, but despite this has invited him already to join her group when visiting one of the Twelve stones. She is interested in the way he conducts himself, the sort of language he uses to communicate. She is also curious of his culture, as she has never known an Au Ra well before him. |
Jehni Kaiyn - ⚖ ●
|
---|
Hestia's first impression of Miss Kaiyn wasn't a very positive one. Loud-mouthed and snarky, Hestia found the shopkeeper who ran Magical Miscellaneous to be far too crude for her tastes. A moment of weakness early on in Hestia's pregnancy however had Jehni there to comfort the woman, causing Hestia's opinion to shift. While still rough around the edges, she knew the woman's heart was in the right place. However, after Jehni approached Hestia via a call inquiring on the usuage of House workers without offering details as to what they would be used for - that in which Hestia declined due to liability issues regarding disclosure - the Miqo'te's personality suddenly twisted. Upon her and Killian's next visit to Magical Misc. the two were unceremoniously kicked out, and Killian without a job as the store was closed permanently. After that, Hestia knew Jehni was the sort of woman to only care about herself. |
Kale Aideron - ⚖ ≈
|
---|
Commanding officer of the 4th Auxiliary Regiment, Flame captain Aideron is a man Hestia met during their time together partaking in the liberation of Ala Mhigo. The man not only bestowed upon her the title of Hakkin-slayer, but also offered her a letter of recommendation toward her ambition in becoming a Knights Dragoon of Ishgard. In what times they have talked to one another, she has felt that the man believes her too young for such hefty ideals, and finds little comfort in his doubt. Even still, doubt is not something Hestia is un-adjusted too, regardless, it does not leave the best of impressions. |
Lendroit Gatineaux - 🍂 ●
|
---|
Having introduced himself to her as simply Lenny, he is a young Duskwight Hestia happened upon during one of her many wanderings into Carline Canopy. Striking conversation with him out of curiosity mostly, the two found pleasant enough company with one another. Wanderlusting over adventure he had never tasted, Hestia pushed the man to pursue his desires to leave the Shroud and find his place in the world, insisting he return to share epic stories of his ventures through song. Lenny is often self-deprecating due to the nature of his kin, something Hestia finds little to know pleasure in dealing with. In time, the man came to understand the Half-Elezen’s wild ambition, if even to some mild degree. To Hestia, Lenny is the Oschon to her Halone, an ally she believes will help her accomplish great things. Recent events brought a shift in the duo's relationship, and while it was certainly a divide between them, tears of all kinds can be mended. Made to be stronger than the first. While Hestia and Lenny still remain good friends, the man left her a letter telling her of his choice to wander and leave the House. While she finds this especially fitting of the person she titled her Oschon, due to the distance and lack of companionship, she can no longer rely on him as a close ally, let alone to be her Oschon.

Lucius Guiscareaux - ⚖ ≈
|
---|
A current knight of House de Bayle, and Lord of House Guiscareaux. Lucius served as Hestia's proctor for her Drachen Trials, being a still active veteran of the Order of the Knights Dragoon. While of the understanding of Lucius' severe demeanor at times, and his somewhat inexcusable past, Hestia is willing to offer Lucius opportunities to turn things around for himself, in return for him helping her finally achieve her goal of being a Dragoon. Her husband, Killian, holds an especially high disdain for the Elezen due to his harsh treatment of her during her trials, especially one where she found herself poisoned and the Hyur didn't know an antidote was present. While Hestia knows full well of her husband's frustration over her remaining respect toward Lucius, she also understands that he cannot grasp the complexity of why she chooses to offer Lucius mercy, rather than cast him aside for his occasionally ruthless behaviour. Lucius has been the cause of more than a few rifts between the couple, that they typically manage to work out in time. As it stands, the woman feels no particularly high inclination toward Lucius outside of base respect as a coworker. She hopes in time he will prove to her that a better man lives within him. |
Rhuli'a Kanjun - ⚖ ●
|
---|
A Keeper that stopped and chatted with Killian and Hestia at the Canopy. While their interaction then was brief, it would be some moons later before they would meet again by chance at the Magical Miscellaneous shop. Having begun crafting his own path as a Fist of Rhalgr, Hestia found interest in the mans somewhat changed demeanor. Having been invited out to Mor Dhona to discuss business, it was clear the two had on some unofficial level, become associates. After some more passing time, Rhuli'a requested Hestia's aid in helping clear a trading path to Ala Ghiri, by helping subdue a True Griffin. Under the pretense that the Griffin be safely handled and taken to a better location, the mission was a success, and Rhuli'a came some weeks later to inform Hestia that the Griffin was in good hands. She find Rhuli'a a respectable man, and holds no issue being a associate in change alongside him. To her, the more that use their talents for good, the better, and she is not the one to ignore such an opportunity. While the two are not particularly close on a friendship level, she has no difficulty having a casual conversation with him. About as casual as Hestia can get on a normal basis. |

Siovant Gascogne - 💔 ●
|
---|
A suave and ruthless Elezen man that was both Hestia's comrade and fiancé, Siovant is easily one of the most important people in the young woman's life. While typically driven away at the sheer idea of courtship, the young Half-Elezen considered Siovant to be her closest confide upon her return to the mainland. As handsome as he is intelligent, Hestia found herself initially drawn to neither, as much as she revered the man's physical prowess and draconian nature. While the two do not always see eye-to-eye on certain social or religious matters, the strength of their devotion was hardly wavered even in light of disagreements, as both make large strides in understanding and indulging one another. After some large periods of time apart, Hestia grew lonely in her lovers absence. She was often comforted by her close friend Killian, who had to see her fall into these bouts of depression on more than one occasion. One evening that comforting grew too heated for the both of them, and they were found out in their mourning by Siovant himself. The situation left Hestia and Siovant with a broken heart, and Killian some broken ribs. The two after some time are on talking terms. Siovant calls Hestia via her linkpearl to tell her all about his latest adventures. The man was once her Althyk, but due to their distance and his marriage to another, she found his position more of a weight she refused to let go of, rather than one that offered her any genuine assistance. The two have a cat together named Tartare, that in which Siovant took with him when he left. SPAR SCORE Hestia: 0 | Siovant: 4 QUOTES

Some of these rumors are untrue, speculation, or are greatly exaggerated. Please feel free to add your own rumors under the Player Character category! Any PC rumours marked red are considered rare, and will need permission from the gossiper or player before usage.
- ■ “How many of them damn Bayle's are there?! The girl's a new one but at least she's approachable. Well, as approachable as them Elezen folk can be, 'suppose.” - Ul'Dahn Traveler
- ■ “That Adelise woman has a stare that could pierce your heart. And not in a good way either. One that sends a death rattle through your bones. She comes here often; while she may be a looker, I would not stare too long.” - Isghardian Scholasticate Student
- ■ “Somewhat lanky girl? The one with the marking on her forehead, yeah? Those Bayle's seem to make face here quite a bit as of late. I see her around, typically escorting that one blind lad who is constantly coming in here. Poor lass, getting herself involved with a sorry sod like that.” - Carline Canopy Regular
- ■ “Lady Adelise is extremely well mannered, despite her often times apparent rebellious behaviour, it is often surprising how much she differs from her cousins.” - Madame Celeste, Estate Employee
- ■ “I sometimes see her about with a little blue lizard, or Wyvern or something. Aren't those things heretical in the Holy See?”- Gridanian Citizen
- ■ “I hear she goes by 'Hestia' now. Not quite sure why, but she claims it is her real name. If it was here real name, why tell everyone she was Adelise?”- Ishgardian Citizen
- ■ “Lady Adelise's arrival is a curious one indeed. I find it particularly peculiar that after the disappearance of our smallest lady, this distant cousin would make surface. Do I think Lady Adelise know's of the youngest daughters disappearance? Well, even with her polite persona, I cannot say I am not suspicious of her intent. I believe her presence is to take her cousins title of Viscount, starting with his lineage. When considering Lord Ceonix's behaviour toward Viscount de Bayle, I can hardly be surprised. However, you did not hear that from me.” - Anonymous Manservant
- ■“A woman with a brand on her forehead? Ah yes, the half-breed. She came here some moons ago. Offering me the fingers of a Duskwight to bless. She seemed rather devoted to doing the Twelves work. I can hardly say I was displeased by such, but one cannot help but fear such strong zealotry. If even to a minor degree.”- Oschon Priest
- ■ "Don't fuck with her." - Serick Aster | 9/5/17
- ■ "Adelise? She's..." He pauses for a moment, brushing a strand of hair out of his face as he thinks of how to respond. "I can't say I know anyone else quite like her, you know? She's got a lot of potential, and the drive to make the most of it." A quiet chuckle. "I want to be there, to see what she does, you know?" - Lendroit Gatineaux | 9/6/17
- ■ "A truly vexing woman. Her stubbornness is matched only by her ferocity. A fine ally, and one who I would not want to see turned enemy." - Lawrence Wallace | 9/20/17
- ■ "Pride. Honor. Fury. Look upon the faces of her parents, and you will see their qualities exemplified in their child. All of their good and... certainly some of their flaws, she is truly a De'bayle. She has a desire in her, a path to follow; One she carves out with a righteous fire. I pray she does not lose sight of the world around her in her mission... Then again, her father and I were not so different from her, in our youth." - Denz de Bayle | 9/28/17
- ■ "She's...kind, and understanding, and patient. She always smells like orange blossoms. She sees me...she sees me. Not my weakness. ... She's a friend. I don't have many of those." - Killian Waltz | 10/17/17
- ■ "I doubt you'd be able to find a woman quite as ferocious and protective as her. She would do anything for the people she loves. And she has helped me to understand why wolves howl at the moon." -Siovant Gascogne | 12/5/17
- ■ "Adelise...? Mmm. She is quite the strange girl. Hard-headed, distant, idealistic. But... she is also strong, and has been through so much. Protective... intimidating. Yes... quite like a dragon, I would say." - Carina de Bayle | 1/19/18
- ■ "She is so sweet, can see it with how stern she is. I think about her a lot. She is very strong. Wants to protect the whole world and carry it all herself. Bundle it all in her arms and heft it, fingers unable to touch, and carry it everywhere on her own. Even people she loves and love her; pick them all up. It puts her in a lot of danger. I always want to keep an eye on her, even though I cannot. I do trust her; it is not that. I want her to live a very long time. She gave me the most beautiful handkerchief. Forgive me, I am rambling on." -Jancis Milburga | 2/8/18
- ■ "Aye, she will likely become one of the greatest lancers her generation will ever bare witness to. Those on her side are very fortunate, though to be on the end of her blade... perhaps prayer would be best suited for that soul." - Armont de Bayle | 3/6/18
- ■ "Hestia is a fine warrior, who perhaps, may someday attain her ambitions, if the incompetence of her fellows do not drag her down." -Lucius Guiscareaux | 3/6/18
- ■ "Ah, Hestia? Her collection of plush creatures and dedication to bettering herself are both commendable. She could do with being a little more outgoing, but I've time yet to beat some sense into that thick skull of hers." -Elias Thorne | 5/21/18
- ■ "My niece is troubled with conflict. Her presence is strong but beneath lies a child who did not get to live a life she should have been afforded. It shows clearly in her room and in the reassurance she seeks only behind closed doors. I have never been a mother, nor have I ever wished to be — yet if I can see her as a friend as well as mine family, then I hope I can offer her something she has lacked in spades: comfort." - Astrelle de Bayle | 6/8/18
- ■ "Rumormongering ill suits me. If you would know of Hestia, ask of her thyself; she is honest and hides naught but that which thou art unworthy to hear." -Rageant Lacordaire | 7/8/18
- ■ "Hahaha! You've caught me in an odd mood, stranger! A rare blend of being well within my cups to see my guard fly yet still retain full motion of my tongue! Come, sit closer, do not shy away! You ask of Hestia? Of everything she has succeeded in, her partner being such a whelp vexes me! The man seems fit to fall over any day now; was this her plan? Cemented the union, though, I'll surrender that much. I cannot wait to see the child..." -Rhuli'a Kanjun | 8/22/18
- ■ "I wonder if Hestia keeps those out of reach because she herself is too short to reach them, and believes others will not go loo~king." -Aedida Aldricht | 9/4/18

Kale Aideron: "Adelise De'bayle, front 'nd centre!" Adelise De'bayle takes a deep breath as she hears her name called, raising her head and marching forward toward Kale. Kale Aideron gives you a Flame salute. Kale Aideron: "Adelise De'bayle! You are amongst the younger soldiers in our joint regiment, but you 'ave defied your so-called 'superiors' in age by fightin' like a twenty-summer veteran. Your great feat, certainly, was witnessed by many. The mysterious brood of Shinryu we faced we 'ave come to call a Hakkinryu. Your feat rivallin' that of the great Ishgardian Dragoons was most certainly recognized by that order. Hestia De'bayle!" "The Order of the Twin Adder recognizes the service of House De'bayle, and awards you with 'the Ironwood Leaf' [★★★]! Henceforth, you shall be known to the Eorzean Alliance as Adelise the Hakkinslayer." Adelise De'bayle tenses proudly, dipping her head in a nod, "an honour Ser," she bows toward the man. Kale Aideron gives you a Flame salute. Aghurlal Qar-akimusun murmurs to himself. "Bloody 'ell, ye really did face dragons, ey..." Astrelle De'bayle: "Well done, Baroness." Astrelle offers Hestia a smile before turning her gaze forward. Adelise De'bayle lightens for once, looking toward Astrelle with a fleeting beam. "Thank you." |

Things had been tense. Tenser than usual. Since his return. I did not want to see him, or know where he was. Not after what I had to witness that evening. I wished to forget. Forget the faces of those dead. The faces of their loved ones as they screamed and asked me ‘why’. I could not tell them. What would I say. I hated that. I hated that… Some suns had passed since that confrontation with Guillemont, and still nothing came of it. Truly I was a fool to believe anything would come from such, that they would see me as their family worth defending. Killian and I argued plenty over it, over my fears. But… they have yet to be elevated. |

“This fight is concluded, Hestia de Bayle. You have more then proven your aptitude with the lance. I am formally offering you your title of acting member of the Knights Dragoon, effective posthaste.” Lucius relaxed his stance, the spear thrown into the ground beside him. The helmet was removed, and the man did not smile, but seemed proud all the same. “You’ve made it.” |

✓ Long-term Roleplay. ✓ Combat Roleplay. ✓ Pregnancy/Children Roleplay. ✓ Organic romances. ✓ Sexual tension/actions. ✓ Slice-of-Life Roleplay. ✓ Paragraph Roleplay. ✓ Discord Roleplay.
● Final Fantasy XI mixed roleplay. I know this can be a bit iffy with some people, but I am certainly very willing to indulge in it so long as everyone involved is on the same page. Please Note: Any and all of Hestia's XI involved lore is generally kept very hidden from people ICly. She will not be going around talking on about her adventures in public places. This part of her lore is complicated and heavily built, therefore it is not something commonly spread around unless I personally know you the player better. ● Character Maiming. This applies to: severing of a limb, permanent disfigurement, and otherwise anything that could be extremely debilitating on my character for the rest of their life. ● Rape involved plots. While I am not against having dark things happen to my character, certain past experiences in RP have made this particular subject somewhat uncomfortable for me. If your character is villainous and looking to attempt something like this toward my own character, I will not allow such a thing to happen without OOC consent initially. Due to this experience though, be prepared for the answer to more than likely be no unless given a reasonable enough circumstance to work with. ● Prior friendship/romance planning OOC. While this is leaning more toward the "I'd rather not do this" I do make exceptions for a good enough reason. However though I strongly prefer organic friendships that build over time, rather than forced by writing. ● Lore-bending. So long as the lore is still intact, bend to your heart's content. After all, most characters wouldn't be all that interesting without stepping out a bit into deeper waters. Hestia herself bends lore in a lot of aspects, however I try to keep things as lore-friendly as possible. Anything that may stretch outside that realm, should be saved for private RP sessions and not in open public RP areas.
× Strictly ERP that is outside of organic plot growth. My character can and will ERP if the situation is put there, but she will not ERP with just any person that comes up and asks her. × Permanent character death unless asked of by myself. If you ask to kill my character, the answer will be no, always. No matter the situation they're in, I decide when they're ready to go. × Any sexual or romantic relations with a character that is a minor. × I will not indulge in or associate myself with characters that publicly and blatantly break lore. No 'The' Warrior of Light characters (this does not include warrior of light characters, they simply can not be the placeholder of the derplander who is directly involved in the MSQ.), or any heavy relations (Wife/husband, siblings, etc.) to primals or notorious NPC's. This also applies to: most if not all the mage jobs minus perhaps Black Mage and Astrologian. No Azure Dragoons. No people proclaiming themselves to be a notorious figure themselves (leader of a well-known clan ex. U'clan) No heavily open voidsent characters. Does this mean I won't play with people involving themselves with or who are possessed by voidsent, no, but if you walk into the Quicksand looking and openly speaking about how you're a voidsent, expect for me to most likely avoid you. An exception to this rule: If you have a well rounded character that can explain with reason why they have the job they have (minus White Mage/Azure Dragoon) then I am more willing to be accepting of it. |
It is important to note to all who choose to delve into Hestia's wiki, that some of the content and IC interactions revolving around the character are very lore-bending and to some potentially breaking (Though I wish for all readers to keep in mind that everything I do involve my character with, I make as lore-friendly as possible. Most if not all her actions are considered to be "possible" as proven by the MSQ in some way shape or form.). If this sort of content is something you as a player are not comfortable with, allow me to assure you that as an RPer I would never go out of my way to shove any content involving my character that might not coexist within the guidelines of public RP down anyones throats unless they so wished to respectfully interact with this side of my characters story. Most of anything that could be considered straying from these guidelines are typically kept from public view. If such knowledge causes you to be swayed from RPing with this character, I still thank you for your consideration nonetheless and hold no ill-feelings toward your decision. I am fully of the understanding that not all wish to stray away from strict-lore rules even if the character does not publicly display such content, and respect that.
