With the Fantasia finally wearing off and Crimson's bounty now paid in full, the Scholar found herself wandering, lost and heartbroken. Steeling her fury and her resolve, she confronts Stehl herself, resulting in a spar between the two in which she was the loser. After leaving her to live another day, the Artifice member uses the power of his Echo to glimpse into his past, showing her the pain he'd been through in hopes it might calm her, telling the woman he had "buried" the love he had for her. Instead however, it merely sought to spark out the hatred she had for both the man and what she considered to be her harem--in her eyes, she considered him a traitor to her for all the pain she'd gone through merely to see him again--feeling that he had betrayed her completely, as Hellsguard are highly traditional and often keep with the first person they lay with. Heart and soul completely decimated, she fled Eorzea, seeking solace in the abyss of the Sea of Clouds once again. | With the Fantasia finally wearing off and Crimson's bounty now paid in full, the Scholar found herself wandering, lost and heartbroken.

− | However, no crews would take her, rumors of her former brutality too great for even the most foul of pirates to warrant keeping her around. Feeling abandoned and alone, Crimson wandered alone, feeling as though the woman she had once been had also been laid to rest. No longer considering herself Sharlayan, a Scholar, or a Sky Pirate, Elm went into a spiral of crippling depression for several moons on her own. | + | However, no crews would take her, rumors of her former brutality too great for even the most foul of pirates to warrant keeping her around. Feeling abandoned and alone, Crimson wandered alone, feeling as though the woman she had once been had also been laid to rest. No longer considering herself Sharlayan, a Scholar, or a Sky Pirate, Elm went into a spiral of crippling depression for several moons on her own. During such time, she threw herself at various amounts of men, aching to be rid of the constant suffering in her soul, desperate to fill the void Stehl had ripped into her--the number of which include Elpeaux Rondford, Kyrun Yun, Yoshi Ebonclaw, Yomi Kyuga, Aelfred Seigmondson, and nearly included Allister Dedrick himself until his striking likeness to her former lover sank in. Regardless of her efforts though, the Sharlayan was unable to feel the way she once had. |

General Information . Appearance
Personality
Her exterior is not too unlike a frozen flame: cold at a distance, and passionately burning closer up. The newest member of the Artifice of Reason is quick to cover her emotions, goals, and weaknessses...but give her a means to spark her instant anger, and she becomes a boiling pot of cursing rage. Strangely enough, her actions and ways of speaking cover for an incredibly intelligent woman--she is a Scholar of Nymian Lores, a study of Aetheric Formulae, and a student of Sharlayan knowledge--well-read and with a strikingly good eye for tactics and critical exploitation. Easily infuriated by the stupidly brash, morally unjust, and careless, many people see Crimson as a hard-ass, incapable of showing emotion beyond scowling and being generally cross. However, she is actually rather sensual, warm, and friendly behind her layers and layers of thick skin. She puts people at their limits to test their abilities, in an attempt to improve themselves. She cares for the safety and well-being of people she meets, but would rather see them fight for their survival, rather than running and hiding. Although she appears to be reluctant to do so, if asked for advice in the matters of combat, the Sky Pirate is always pleased to test their mettle, reforge it, and improve it. Arrogant to a fault, prideful of her knowledge, heritage, and courage, she finds it difficult to admit when she's wrong, if she ever does at all. To her, weakness is something she'd rather hide. Despite the crap-free attitude, cold exterior, and less-than-polite means of communication, the Scholar is good at heart. Although her methods are definitely unorthodox, she means well in what she does, and does legitimately feel for people when they're in some form of trouble. She has a soft spot for kids, though she'd never admit it, and takes silent joy in teaching them...even if she does have to ram information into their skulls from time to time. Crimson would do just about anything to defend the unprotected, unwary, and innocent, to include putting her own life on the line. Fearless to death as her father was fearless to the loss of his hand, the Hellsguard takes life by the horns, and refuses to let go. A fighter until the very end, it could very well come to pass that she does go down swinging... In spite of her demeanor and mannerisms, Crimson Elm is highly intelligent; at a young age she demonstrated an uncanny knack for the arcane arts and was sent from her village to the north to Limsa Lominsa, where she took up tutelage from the finest the Arcanist's Guild had to offer her. She has great experience in the ways of Aether and Magic, with knowledge in survival skills attained only through vigorous amounts of personal experience. While her physical power is lacking from practice, her ability to tap into Aether has become a point of high praise from her allies, and a dangerous mechanic to her foes.
The Scholar finds ignorance to be the greatest enemy of being liberated, over everything else. Thus, she has sought to teach herself, and strives to teach others, even if it means beating them upside the head to get them to understand what they need to learn. Keeping people uninformed and unintelligent will only regress society, giving way to the rot of collapsing nations, and casting away what could be wonderful potential into the abyss of history, in her opinion. The only true way to set yourself free...is to learn about the world around you, and take advantage of it in every way you can. Elm also has a vicious taste for dishing out her own brand of justice. She feels strongly about giving people choice to make their lives as blissful as they can, without being pushed down by higher authorities or circumstances. Because of this, she often starts or gets herself into a number of bad situations. Despite how much trouble she'll get into, however, Elm is always willing to do so time and time again.Preferences
