Ehla is an unpleasant being and she does little to hide the fact. Her tongue is barbed, her laughter is sharp and shrill, and her lips take on an impish curl.

LIKES ■The Professor. Blind devotion, it would seem. ■Her mother. ■Her chocobo. Firewater. She treats him as if he were her own child. ■Fishing.

DISLIKES ■Ishgard. Lived on the outskirts very, very briefly when she was sixteen and hated it. ■Gigantoads. One swallowed her as a girl. If she sees one, she wants to kill it. ■Weak people. Blood in the water sends her into a feeding frenzy. She targets them specifically, either to drag them down or to build them up as a means to an end.

STRENGTHS ■Intelligent ■Manipulative ■Loyal Her trust is hard earned but once she has chosen a person to devote herself to, she remains steadfast in her loyalty. ■Driven

WEAKNESSES ■Vicious. She is a school yard bully, and relentless once she has sunk her teeth into a victim. ■Liar. Lies to make a story more interesting, lies to cover her tracks, lies to cover her lies, lies to cover those lies. Lies, lies, lies.

QUIRKS ■Hideous laughter. It will send chills up your spine.

APPEARANCE

Tall for a miqo'te woman, she was once described as a willowy, waifish thing but has grown decidedly pear-shaped from indulging in the luxuries the Coral Sea provides. Fat adds a soft layer to muscle, unevenly distributed to her hips and thighs, though it is easy to tell that she is strong.

There's a youthful aura about her, from the way she rocks from heel to toe, to the impishly insolent grin that seems to linger. Freckles cover her entire body, messily splattered across her cheeks, nose, and shoulders. A number of mundane scars mar her skin, most of their stories forgotten, but most notable and freshest ones are the gruesome, sunken claw marks down her back, inflicted by an Ahriman.

COMBAT

Following the Calamity, Ehla has honed her skills as an Arcanist under the careful guidance of her professor. Before then, she briefly trained in Conjury but her volatile and aggressive nature was not suited for the guild and so she left before she could be dismissed. Her roots lie in archery, though, having needed to hunt in the Shroud from an early age but her skills are not trained for combat.

HISTORY

PRE-CALAMITY Origins ■ 1559: Born to Lahza Nelhah on the twenty third sun of the Third Astral Moon. The kit's lion tail and rosy complexion immediately made it apparent that the child had not been sired Lahza's dusky and dashing mated partner as she had claimed. Oops.

Use sparingly or ask first! ■ “That scholar came to town after the Calamity and swept her right up to take her back to the big city with him. She was a kit, for Twelve's sake-- she's still a kit! Why her mother ever allowed this arrangement, I'll never know.”- Gridania. ◢ RARE RUMORS - Very rarely overheard.

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Attraction | ♥ Platonic Love | ✔ Positive | ✖ Negative | ● Neutral note: Characters with whom Ehla has interacted. Renee Becquerel ( ♥ ) - Leader The two have grown quite close quite quickly since Renee's transition from Renaud, despite Ehla's deep-seated distaste for the man. Ehla has a penchant for telling Renee just what she thinks of her, but the woman doesn't seem too put off by her barbs and exchanges a few of her own instead. Though Ehla considers Renee one of her closest companions within the company, she still remains very guarded and erects walls to shut her out. Faezbhar Rysswilf ( ♥ ) - Cuddle Buddy They surprised some old ladies when Faezbhar jumped out of a cake at the wrong Valentione's Day party. They then stole an Ixali airship with said old ladies and have had a beautiful friendship ever since. Y'rhen Tia ( ✔ ) - Battle Butler Purchased from Memeli Meli for a mere four thousand gil, Rhen has been renamed 'Rin' by Ehla and serves as her butler/retainer/minion. She swears it's legal. Sigurd Rainecourt ( ✖ ) - Target Practice She bullies him whenever she can. He's an easy target and doesn't usually fight back.
