Appearance

5"5 A tall, curvy miqo'te, with Natural Jet Black hair, though she may change her hair color constantly through dyeing. She usually has her hair in pigtails, preferring her Foestriker coat, she typically wears it for her hunting gear and mixes and matches her other parts of her gear depending on the mission, favoring lightweight gear over heavy gear. When in casual wear, she typically wears a Tabard, and shorts, with cockcrows. Overall she prefers rather loose or skimpier clothing so don't be surprised if she's found in cascade uniform top. She has a black butterfly Tattoo on her Right cheek, which is the brand of her former owner.

Combat

Prefers to use stealth as opposed to upfront combat. When slaying monsters, she will sometimes attack an enemy other than the party's focus of attention, only if she knows she can handle it. Otherwise, she tends to use her stealth abilities to bypass needless battles at all possible. When in hunting parties she's very impatient, wanting to rush through the area rather than waste time on lower tier enemies.

General

Ashley Kirine is an 18 year old Mi'qote adventurer who grew up on the streets and, post calamity, in the brothels of a small city outside Ul'dah. She's rather brash, and unforgiving, not very kind to those who cross her or betray her. Due to her harsh upbringing, she has a strong distrust and dislike of people. She'll use her stealth abilities to help her hide herself when nervous and attempt to dodge the question should it prove too personal for her. She tries to keep her upbringing a secret, for fear of judgement, and worst of all: fear of being outcasted by her own Free Company. She often tries to hold her true ways away from the public doing what she can to change her lifestyle of thievery and murder.

Originally being a pugilist she became a Rogue upon visiting Limsa, and became what she calls: "a full time rogue". She loves hunting, and when killing monsters goes into a sense of battle high, almost becoming completely different in personality, when enraptured by the thrill of battle, her shy, worrisome personality drops completely no longer considering the concerns of others. When she's into her relapse state, from her earlier days of her childhood, she becomes extremely submissive, and open to suggestion though it rarely happens. She hates and loves Anba, a paladin who took her in and trained her, not seeing her as a mother or older sister, but more like a close companion she's come to care greatly for, while also wanting to cause extreme harm at the same time.

Ashley, due to her way of life prior to Ul'dah, desperately craves forms of affection, especially for a loving eternal bond partner, poor or rich. Occasionally she will relapse into her previous mental state, slipping away from her companions to regain her sense of self. She continues her work in the daily slaying of monsters, trying to find a reason to her life as she slowly adjusts to a life no longer filled with thievery to survive.

Running Heavensward Arc

By this time, Ashley has become more mature, and less naive. After a vicious battle against in a transformed Dravanian that her and her fellow company mates took part in, she was trained by her friend, love interest to be able to use her mudras back-to-back in a longer string before her body wears out. Due to her feelings being revealed about her former love interest, she's become less trusting, and more angry towards others. She still uses her Rogue and ninja training in her day-to-day life. After her former love interest had told her she did not feel the same way about her, she had gotten her own room and opted to become more independent, preferring to work and be alone most of the time rather than be involved with anyone. Now she's become more of a drinker, preferring to drink herself to forget her troubles. Though she's still happy to help her fellow company mates and friends without hesitation.

She's decided it would be best for her to start helping out with events to take her mind off things, which she does well despite her shyness. Now with even more friends and allies, she's become a bit more open to people, and was convinced by her friend Saber to start reading more so she could improve her vocabulary. unfortunately, she still has a hard time saying the new words she's learned and still speaks with a rather crude dialect. Due to her time training with her love interest, and her and the ninjas, she has come to know a lot about Doman culture and has even more love than before for it altogether. She still regrets the day she broke Vic Valcrist's heart, as she stopped a relationship from getting too serious due to her feelings for him not being solid enough, and tries to avoid talking to him, or even being around him at all costs. She still cares greatly for him though, and will watch after him to make sure he doesn't get into trouble or get hurt.

Due to a variety of people, she's given up her previous profession, still plagued with relapses, she struggles to maintain her withdrawal from the lifestyle. Becoming very aggressive and hostile when affected by it. Nowadays though, she still works as a assassin for hire and a hunter, if she's not busy with her voluntary work. While trying to come up with a way to drown out her anger, she decides to take up the art of Axe-wielding. Though he still prefers her daggers, and always trains to be a better ninja, she does practice her swipes every now-and-again.

Bent on no longer focusing on her older life, and the troubles that befell her, she continues to live-on, trying to adjust to a more simple life.

Ashley's Wrath Arc

After a year of travel, and training. Ashley has trained herself properly in the ways of the Warrior, putting a stop to her training with the her stabbers for the innate stress relief of swinging an axe. She's come to find great comfort in her axes just as she has her 'stabbers' feeling absolutely useless and incomplete without her weapons. Ashley, having been training with her trusty axe for so long, has become easier to infuriate before, her rage growing to consume her every waking moment. When she isn't swinging her axe at something, she's quietly seething with rage and and anger at her current state of being. When talked to by general strangers, she growls or hisses at them, signaling her discontent with being bothered by people she generally doesn't know.

Compared to her younger self, she's grown to be more unforgiving and less caring for others, due to her constant anger, and impatience. Ashley has grown to become rather impulsive, no longer caring about risks in a battle, nor stealth, and prefers to go in full axe swinging. When in battle her nature becomes feral and savage-like. The only thing in her mind left in the wake of battle being the physical destruction of whatever enemy stands before her. Around her companions she tries to remain calm, but rarely manages to do so. After days of hunting, and days of fighting and hiding, she's grown tired of the life she's adjusted to, wanting more than what she currently has. She wishes to return to her older life, when she was happier.

Her current whereabouts are not known to her friends of AoE, and is lost to all outside her personal circle.
