| | + | She's a small, shapely thing - a once gawky foundation turned to womanform. Or turning, judging by the chub of her cheeks and occasional stumbles, fumbles and tumbles (she's a ditsy helmsman). Her voice is bubbly and boisterous (inside voice? what inside voice?) and her tongue as foul as a sailor's. A tad of fire touches her blonde hair and her eyes are the sky and the sea. Beyond that, no real noteworthy brands. She's got a dim-witted smile though. |

| + | Chani grew up as a typical Lominsan youth: playing pirates, pulling pranks on tourists, pissing off the deckhands... She was happy (even with three older brothers tormenting her mercilessly.) Unfortunately her mother caught a cold, and it developed, and one can see where this leads to. Except before her passing, their was hope. An expensive one. The family's father (a failing merchant) said ''"'Ey!"''... and turned to gambling. If he could just get that jackpot! Needles to say, he racked up some serious monetary debts (the drinking didn't help). And when the hope faded and the family should've moved on... well, he approached a pirate gang for financial assistance. Except after a while the benefactors suspected the father was attempting to weasel out of his servitude, and so the Knights of Barracuda were anonymously tipped off on a "major pirate den" at Chani's residence. Acting on this information, the Knights ransacked the place, setting it ablaze and arresting the three brothers. Luckily (or not so?), Chani's escape was masked by the ensuing takedown of her brothers. As for the fate of her father... well, none of it she's very sure on. And as there's nothing she's been able to do (or find) in the ten years since, Chani has drifted on with her life. |
| − | [http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Cima Cima] [http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Fay Fhae] - translation: ''treasure'', ''faith''. Fae may also refer to ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy faeries]''. The 'h' is silent unless pronounced in Miqo'te tongue. Resembles the Roegadyn word "Frae" which prompted the Styr-siblings' pet-name "Fraestyr": ''free star''. Her name may also be associated with ''fray'' (the unraveling or wearing of fabric) in regards to the intentions of the Spinner. | |

| + | A loudmouth and tomfool, Chani is knowledge-starved and thrill-seeking. Trouble's her name and danger's her game. She acts out of her best interests and isn't above pushing someone under the choco-coach if it means another day of life in her lungs. I advise you to watch your pockets around this one: what's yours is hers, and what's hers is hers. And expect the unexpected. Or maybe she's predictably unpredictable. Good luck! |

| − | A slight sprite of a creature with wiry tone, Cima is built small but strong [''akin to: [http://soulcalibur.wikia.com/wiki/Talim#Gallery Talim]'']. She has eyes likes rubies and pine green hair, kept short for the desert's unyielding heat. A noticeable scar tapers over her left eye, a result of clumsiness and ill-timing on her part. Her skin, blemished here and there by other noteworthy injuries, is the typical Keeper complexion and as such, burns easily in sunlight.

| − | Around her neck dangles a bell-pendant - tinkling like wind-chimes with the subtlest of movements. Cima also commits to the time-honoured tribal paint of her people, accentuating the outer-corners of her face with blue-purple crescent moons for Menphina's boon.

| |
| − | Under construction. [[File:Eastshroud.png|right|220px|Eastshroud.png]]
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Born in the Eastern Shroud to the Fhae family - shamans regarded for their mystery, cunning and eerie intuition. Clan totem: [red-eyed] frog.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Raised harmoniously with the forest and its spirits; affinity for nature, as expected for a Fhae. However: lack of consideration/concentration and nosy nature makes her the "problem-child" of her family. Strives for positive recognition.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Occasionally visits Gridania and hamlets as they wander the Twelveswood - selling/exchanging herbs (medicines, spices; incense), their "gift of divine insight" (fortune-telling, channeling spirits), etc.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> A fateful night by campfire: their (proud) perception neglects to caution them of a nearby Ixali troop. Slaughtered or separated but all lost, Cima Fhae (eight cycles at this point) is a lone survivor.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> While slinking through the Twelveswood a half-cycle later, Cima is drawn into the throng of trees by a familiar song. She stumbles upon a campsite, unknowingly discovering the wandering crusader (and ex-gladiator), Fohcs, fast asleep. Foolishly drinks from a pot of mushroom-tea and finds herself [down The Rabbit Hole]. Fohcs rescues Cima from the self-induced nightmare and shows her the "silver lining." Cima pours her lonely little heart out.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> The two decide to stick together (along with his young coeurl, Klyn-Koena) and lead a life of unceasing exploration. Fohcs' views and values grow on Cima and she comes to admire him, considering him a funny-sort-of-father-like-figure. Troublesome trio of mentor, student, and really big cat.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Cima learns how to ''really'' fight - Fohcs passes down his expertise in combat and weaponry, fashioning her with a rapier to accommodate for her size and strength. ''"Each day is a lesson."''
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Some cycles later (Cima, thirteen). The wildlife has been behaving peculiarly and the group decide to trek through the dunes to pay Fohcs' sister, Wilfie, a visit in Ul'dah. Cima is impressed by their collaborative collection of treasures.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Fohcs seeks answers. A military draft is received. After deliberation, Fohcs takes up arms with the Immortal Flames and leaves Cima and Koena to Wilfie until his return.
| |
| − | : <font style="color:#466b69;" size="3">■</font> Calamity - the fall of Dalamud. Contrary to the wishes of the Styr-siblings, Cima can't stay idly by and takes up Koena as courser, racing to the Carteneau Plains to "save" Fohcs.

''"Ge' off yer arse an' do somethin' wit' yer sorry life! Sheesh." - Said the wise Wilfie''. She can pack a punch even if she's not an outstanding fighter.

| − | Fhae is a pawnbroker at ''Finders, Keepers'' on Emerald Avenue, Ul'dah. They receive their fortuitous stock (for various reasons) from all corners of Eorzea. If your character requires something unusual, be it an antique or product of the black market - please give me a ring! It'd be fun to make some connections this way. Wilfie sends Fhae out to do all sorts of odd jobs - be it errand-running, pick-ups and drop-offs, and hunting for treasures of their own. If you have a courier, merchant, smuggler, treasure hunter, thief, etc that counts as a potential connection as well!
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also, obviously, no reaaal gil is required for this role-play idea, I just wanna have an excuse to mingle with all sorts of character breeds (and have fun doing it!). The price would be pretend-gil or shinies of some-sort or another. Fhae and Wilfie collect rabbit trinkets.
