Elysande Hawke Magnanimous Mage About
Standing at a good six fulm two ilm, there is no mistaking Ely for anything other than a Highlander. Her hair is black with various, almost seemingly random streaks dyed red - and although the style in which her hair is kept can vary widely from day to day on a whim, she tends to prefer her hair being tied back. Her eyes are her own personal favorite feature - violet, and generally more expressive than she can manage to be verbally - and very rarely styles her hair to cover them. Years ago, she may have been considered almost dangerously thin for someone of her height, but she has since gotten into better and more consistent eating habits. Scars & Markings: Despite the rough nature of her youth, Elysande managed to live through it with minimal visible scars - the only noticeable ones are the ones covering the knuckles of both hands. Voice: There is a certain softness to her voice, somewhat jarring for those that expect most Highlanders to be a boisterous lot. She does not often raise her voice, instead falling silent if there is yelling to be had. Her singing voice is solidly in the mezzo-soprano range. Clothing: Her wardrobe consists mainly of various outfits combining red, black, or white - although she has been known to wear purple and blue as well from time to time - and the style of the clothing is fairly vast as she doesn't stay within any sorts of boundaries when it comes to clothing, ranging from what one would find standard in Eorzea to some Othard and Thavnairan inspired outfits. An introvert to her core, Elysande is an exceedingly difficult person to get to know. Not because she exactly intends to be such, but simply because she is perfectly happy being the silent participant in conversations going on around her. That's not to say she is short or callous to those that address her directly - quite the opposite, in fact - but the speed at which she tries to remove herself from the active part of a conversation is a solid indication of her preference to observe than participate. If engaged in conversation, she reveals her true nature; a kind woman despite the hand that fate's given her, an eternal optimist, and very eloquent for someone completely lacking a formal education during her childhood. She tends to downplay her own abilities and intelligence, though what drives such behavior - be it modesty or introversion - is unclear. Of course, none of this is to say she is kind all the time. Her sense of humor tends strongly towards dry wit and sarcasm, though she tends to avoid directly insulting those around her if she has any reason to keep their favor. To those few she actively dislikes, they are given no such courtesy. The difficulty with Elysande is getting actually close to her. Though she does not actively drive people away, she does not seem keen on attempting to attach or build relationships with people. She can become skittish if smothered too hard with affection and tends to make excuses, usually hiding behind her past, as the best indication of why she is incapable of true closeness or romantic commitment. While her past does have some effect on her outlook on life, as pasts tend to do, it is not as defining as it lets on and in truth she is simply hiding her insecurity. Her personality type is INFP-A.
