forever and always a wip

Lost in skies of powdered gold, caught in clouds of silver ropes.

Showered by the empty hopes, as I tumble down, falling fast to the ground--

I know I'll wither, so peel away the bark; 'cause nothing grows when it is dark.

basic info

, born the 1st day of the 4th Umbral moon, is a Seeker of the Sun, and of knowledge. Born to the [] by the nunh As'renha, she lived under them for only five years before their tribe was subject to raiding in which the village was razed for slaves. Her mother, As'virre, gave her to a friend by the name of Brennaux, a Scholar and Elezen, during the chaos in the hopes that they would escape somewhere safe.

Brennaux would whisk the young Miqo'te away several nights later, on a ship bound for the safety of the Sharlayan island, and she'd never see her mother again,
or anyone from her tribe, for many years to come. Not until she made way for Eorzea, in order to witness first hand all she'd read in books, all she'd heard of.
She wished to adventure.

As'koya Renha

( ass-koi-a ren-hah )

Wyvern Tribe

appearance & personality

As'koya stands at five fulm five ilms, and is relatively small, by most means. There is muscle, but there is not much; one can tell she has been using magic her whole life, that she's never been one for physical labor. She had begun to learn to control the flux of aether in her body since she was very young, beginning with the runes tattooed across her skin both to enhance her power, as well as help harness it. This led to her body seeming... soft, her body more meat than anything else. Still, she is relatively fit, though her thighs seem to catch what fat her body does spend, leading to quite plump hips. She is more than pleased with them, however.

Years of learning from sophisticated scholars has groomed her into a very precise step. She stands with her back straight, a ruler used to tell her where the back should curve and where it shouldn't. Brennaux would raise her into a graceful creature, though there are certainly times in which she lets herself slacken, where she feels no need to keep appearances high. Despite all the learning that went into making her all but a swan, she is rather wild inside, enjoying climbing trees, rolling through brush and sticking flowers in her hair, swimming in rivers, much to the chagrin of the man who raised her. Her love of these things has led to botany as a hobby; she can tell you what most every plant you come across is. She keeps a book of pressed flowers.

Her personality is welcoming to most degrees, though she can come across as too blunt or too smart for her own good. Having spent years poring over books and tomes and scrolls, she has more knowledge than she cares to admit, and often uses that in conversation to correct others, and they often hate it. She isn't very tactful, which is both a blessing and a curse, and is flirtatious and unyielding in what she wants. She takes a lot of pride in her appearance, and may even be seen as vain by some. While at times she isn't afraid to get down and dirty, she's more often than not trying her best to avoid looking disheveled, keeping in top condition (something that was ingrained in her by Brennaux.)

She is well-versed, reading and writing come easily, and has an expanded enough vocabulary. She knows several languages, both verbal and non. She can read just about anything put in front of her, and can decipher codes given enough time. Years of studying under the smartest individuals in the world has made her into quite the genius. This does not mean she's smart in every respect, that she's above everyone else-- though she tends to see it that way. It has gotten her in trouble, speaking out against those she ought not to in the past.

She is also prone to being nosy, and thinking she knows whats best for her friends, or perhaps that she knows absolutely everything. She has a motherly air about her, putting on concern for each of her compatriots. She is stubborn and headstrong to those who know her, often unmoving in her beliefs and her work, but does her best to be understanding of those around her.

As a healer, she is very skilled. She spent just under a decade becoming a certified Astrologian, and she is known for being very good. Not only can she read the stars and what they have to offer, but she can knit wounds closed and help the ailing. She will often do this for a price, but is not above helping those in need when they truly need it, and may not have anything to give her in return.

As'koya is, unfortunately, a hopeless romantic to the extremes. Her flirting tends to develop into more hardened crushes, but she ends up feeling more often than not unfulfilled. This leads her to many rendezvous with individuals of varying genders for... well, more immediate satisfaction, out of fear that she will break her own heart yet again. She truly does hope to find someone perfect some day, but until then...

biography

Born in the Wyvern tribe near the former colony of Sharlayans, As'koya was one of two children born to As'virre, both sired by As'renha. Unfortunately, the first child, was born still. This was very saddening to Virre, who considered never bearing again due to how traumatic it was to her. As'renha, who cared very much for As'virre, comforted her for months; eventually, she decided she wished to try again. This is how As'koya came to be.

When she was three years old, she was given her tattoos. Traditional inked into her skin, a painful experience that served to make her into quite the magic user as she grew older. She cried for days after they were applied.

At five years, the tribe was raided. Her mother, out of desperation and fear, passed Koya into the hands of a dear friend of hers who was visiting at the time, a man named Brennaux. He would take her, swaddled in blankets and his arms, and take her far from the village. For several nights, he hosted her in his home, until he decided that taking her elsewhere would be better. Then, together, they boarded a ship for the nation of Sharlayan, and began a new life there.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When she was ten, she began studying the way of the Astrologian along with her general classes. She was a natural, thanks to the aether inside her, and her enhancing tattoos. Quickly, she became one of the best in her class, and became a full fledged Astrologian by the time she was eighteen. Brennaux was quite proud of her, hosting a party to show off his 'daughter' and her newfound title. Soon after this, with permission from the higher authority, As'koya was allowed to travel to Ishgard for studying abroad. After a year, she decided this would be her new home. She still exchanges letters with Brennaux.

In Ishgard she stayed for five years, weathering dragon attacks and helping those who came to her door, knowing an adept healer lay behind it. Social unrest was beginning to rampage, but she did her best to remain apart from it, staying within the walls of the home she shared with a highborn family. They were more than happy to house a Sharlayan, though they were wary of her from the start. While living with them, their staff taught her a menagerie of helpful skills, from sewing to cooking. She likes to consider herself good at many of these, and hopes one day to apply them to earn herself more coin.

After the gates opened up, and adventurers from all across flooded into the city, As'koya found their stories absolutely enthralling, and wishing to undertake her own, she left the comfort of her highborn home, sent a letter to her father, and set out into Eorzea.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

After being in Eorzea for several weeks, she made her way to Ul'dah. Here, she met As'terryn Hyun, a living, breathing, member of her tribe who she'd thought was all but destroyed in the past. She's been told there are more of them, thriving and flourishing and existing, and she's excited to meet them.

current goingson

■ As'koya has just come to Eorzea, and is wandering aimlessly while trying to find so-called 'adventures.'

■ She is planning a trip to the Dravanian Hinterlands, to visit the ruins of her nation's old colony, and see what knowledge she may find in the dilapidated library.

relations ♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Neutral Standing ● Poor Standing ● -- As'terryn Hyun: Upon coming to the city of Ul'dah, Koya quickly was approached by someone whom she beared many striking similarities to, whom she'd discover was a member of the tribe she was torn from at a young age. The two have become good friends, and perhaps even slowly climbing the ladder to true family (though they already call each other as such.) Koya likes her very much, though their beliefs seem to differ at times, and would like to see her and her child happy. ● -- Orlandeaux Durellion: Having met the elezen man at an All Fool's Day party, she took to him quickly. His sourpuss attitude and expression, while off putting, only served to want her to bother him if only a bit (to see if he really could smile, which, the answer to that question is yes.) Their start was a shaky one, as the girl made a few poor decisions in quick succession, but they seem to have worked past this and are, hopefully, on good terms. ● -- V'rasha Tia: After having a particularly poor evening, As'koya had taken up a dinner table at the Bismarck in Limsa Lominsa, and thusly was approached by a man by the name of Rasha. He seems too nice, making her wonder if he's an ulterior motive or two, but seems to get no ill vibes from him. And so, she finds it with ease to talk to him, and looks forward to more encounters. ● -- Y'uraq Tia: During a brief excursion to the city of Ishgard, a quick visit to the Astrologicum would introduce the Sharlayan to a young man who wished to learn the art of the Astrologian. Quickly, despite accepting this offer, As'koya realized the boy hardly had a bone for healing in his body, much to her inner disappointment. Still, she wishes to see him succeed, if only to prove herself a capable teacher, and plans to further work with him to reach his goals.
