P E R S O N A L I T Y

Nearly every facet of Edda's personality is a finely crafted front. Raised by her father to be a perfect - but never accessible - lady, she is vastly out of touch with her own emotions, and refuses to share the worst of her thoughts and fears with anyone, believing them to be of little importance to anyone else, and a detriment to what she is meant to be. As a woman who places her duty before all else, Edda comes across as a very distant and lonely person.

Despite this, Edda maintains a very welcoming and pleasant bearing, and typically wears a smile on her face. She is both patient and kind, and always willing to lend an ear or a hand whenever asked. While she struggles to fight against her natural coldness and shyness, she enjoys conversing with people from different walks of life, and treats all those she meets with the manners that have been drilled into her. This of course, can be a double edged sword. Edda is quick to change her opinion of those who display an abundant lack of manners or any sort of adverse behavior, and will be to cold to such individuals, or even outright hostile. She is heavily territorial when it comes to her employees or those under her association, even when it comes to those she is close to. Her words can become exceedingly harsh when she is provoked, and though it takes much to get her there, it is very much like the flip of a switch.

More often than not, Edda gives the first impression of being a kind person, but frigid and easily forgotten. Out of fear for herself, as well as a complete inability to do so even if she wanted, her true self lies buried beneath several layers of fragile facades. However, at her core lies an affectionate and gentle girl that cannot be honest with herself, or others.

L I K E S ■ Sweets and Pastries. Her diet could consist entirely of them, if given the choice. ■ Traveling. She is not used to getting out much, so any chance to see a new sight is greatly valued by her. ■ Feeling Useful. Something she does not get to do very often. ■ Fashion. Will admire her own and others for days, and will wear anything at least once. ■ Hugs. She will never admit to this. Ever.

D I S L I K E S ■ The Rude. An egregious lack of manners will be taken as an offense - especially if displayed to others. ■ Trial by Fire. Stress wears heavily on her facade. She does not appreciate it. ■ Being in Danger. Once was more than enough, but she has come to accept it may happen again. ■ Filth. Cleanliness is Godliness. ■ Garlemald. Any reference to it will set her into a black mood.

F E A R S ■ Being Forgotten. A driving force behind her. ■ Death. She may talk big game, but she is always aware of this fear. ■ Dodos. One or two are fine, but any more than that at a time will send her into hysterics. ■ Sleep. A recent development, the dreams that come with it plague her thoughts. ■ Herself. No one truly knows her, least of all herself. A realization that haunts her.

S T R E N G T H S ■ Caring. Though she does her best to hide it, she holds a great deal of affection in her heart. ■ Generous. She is not afraid to use her wealth to do any amount of good. ■ Willful. Edda is relentless when it comes to doing something she believes what must be done. ■ Helpful. Eager to please and always willing to lend a hand in any way she can. ■ Her Mask. The outer shell she wears protects her heart and mind... or so she thinks.

W E A K N E S S E S ■ Dense. Sexual innuendo and suggestions will not get through to this one. ■ Self-Loathing. In her eyes, there is no one more wretched than she. ■ Overly Obedient. If someone she respects and cares for tells her to do something stupid, she will. ■ Self-Righteous. Those that provoke her will have to deal with this side of her, whether they deserve it or not. ■ Her Mask. It keeps hurt from coming in, but it distances her emotionally from others.

Q U I R K S ■ Voracious Eater. Can devour a third of her weight with alarming ease... if not properly supervised. ■ Cloistered. Many things about the common world confuse her to no end. ■ Clumsy. Normally graceful, highly uneven terrain will cause her to wipeout spectacularly. ■ Educated. Received rigorous education in a wide array of subjects and skills for most of her life. ■ Hypocrite. Quick to dole out advice and wisdom she does not follow.

A P P E A R A N C E

Always kept prim and proper by doting servants and her own practiced touch, Edda maintains a constant appearance of nobility. She is slightly tall for a Midlander, which is only accentuated by her impeccable posture. Despite her slim build, she is unusually curvaceous, a point to which she does not enjoy bringing attention, but is still generally oblivious to. Her facial structure is sharp and regal, offset by gentle green eyes and a typically placid expression. With pale skin and light blonde hair, Edda overall has the appearance of a fragile doll, and one not at all used to the struggles and dangers of the common citizen. This is further enhanced by her persistently clean and well-groomed presentation. Her most defining feature (depending on what she is currently wearing, anyway) is a small birthmark under her right eye, which she frequently forgets about. While she is typically described as beautiful in an objective sense, she is by no means alluring, her naturally frigid aura cancelling out whatever benefits her looks may give her.

As expected of one in her position, Edda has a great love of well-tailored and feminine clothes. She generally prefers skirts and dresses - lace, frills, ribbons, silks; the more of them, the better. Preferring lighter colors such as pinks, greens and whites, all of her clothing seems unnaturally clean at all times, as if dirt and grime never touch her. However, recently Edda has taken to wearing more ergonomic designs. They are still made out of the finest materials, but she stands out less, and appears more approachable. She will wear anything at least once, and holds no reservations about showing off her body - so long as no attention is called to this fact. Self-consciousness comes quick to her, and any untoward comments about her appearance will more often than not cause her to flee.

C O M B A T

To say Edda is not suited for combat would be a gross understatement. Despite being trained in a number of different fighting styles, almost all of them were for show only, her knowledge having no application in an actual fight. Though she does not fear combat in and of itself, she does fear being the target of physical harm. With a strong affinity for magick, Edda has a strong desire to aid her allies when she can, however, she sadly has all the combat savvy of a level 3 chigoe..

C O N J U R Y Both Edda and her brother were born with an innate talent for conjury, a trait that has been prevalent in the family for some generations. She received rather slipshod training from an arcanist in her earlier years, and therefor possesses little knowledge of the art in both practice and theory. Despite a monstrous amount of latent talent with the art, she is currently quite mediocre at it, starting from the beginning in order to unlearn her poor habits.

T H A U M A T U R G Y Edda has only received light training in thaumaturgy, to the point where she is only able to produce the weakest possible manifestations of common spells. However, she enjoys and is interested in studying it. As of now she has no time or means to, and is further held back by her father's distaste of thaumaturgy due to its association with the Ul'dah.

F E N C I N G Taught more as a physical activity for the sake of keeping in shape than a means to defend herself, Edda is perfectly average at this. While her form is fluid and graceful, she lacks the strength and agility needed to make actual use of this skill. At the very least, she knows which end is the pointy one.

A R C H E R Y With the limp noodles she calls arms, Edda is none too good at wielding a bow. The art was drilled in to her at a young age for the sake of showmanship and hunting for sport. Her aim and capability is good enough, but she tires easily from it, and finds her body not at all suited for it.

I am not so certain I know her at all." -- Roen Deneith ■ "I cannot say I really know Lady Eglantine. From our quiet conversations I find her rather reserved, timid even. Yet she wants to be involved with the world. The never ending dilemma of the shy." -- Coatleque Crofte ■ "She strikes me as one very shy and reserved. It's unnerving to meet another who has what seems like such a beautiful mask." -- Kage Kiryuu ■ "Ms. Edda? She seems... distant'n sad a lot. S-still! She seems like a nice 'nuff person ta me! Maybe she jus' needs more frands! ... Maybe I can be her frand." -- Chachanji Gegenji ■ "Edda Lady... She is calm, wealthy, and made a strange face when I said I came from near Othard... If you see her, tell her I am sorry. I threw Memeli into her. Also, to please forget what she saw in the Wench." -- Virara Wakuwa ■ "The highborn girl? Well, I certainly can't fault her stubbornness. Whatever fuels that righteous indignation, I certainly hope she continues to wield it with such finesse, but not all troublemakers can be silenced with a stern look and an upturned nose--however comely." -- Banquo ■ "Miss is a woman and mistress of singular sensitivity and ambition. I do, however, suspect a lifelong overexposure to disingenuous verbal rhetoric has soured her taste for direct expression. If you wish to know Miss's feelings, I suggest you analyze not her words, but her actions." -- Gideon North ■ "Easy on the eyes, sure enough, she's easy on the eyes.

She's a nice gal! Has that aura about her, you can tell she's got all sortsa silver spoons! She's great! Nyahaha! Excellent taste in wine. Though... The looks she gives sometimes...." -- Memeli Meli ■ "I am quite fond of Edda, truly, though... when I watch others about her, I find myself wondering if they pay any heed or merely presume to understand. The things some of them say... you would assume they simply look through her. I like it not." -- Ashmira Honzen
