<font style="color: #000; letter-spacing: 0em;">Soft-featured with very large eyes, she looks a fair-bit younger than her twenty cycles, though calling her "kid" is a real quick way to get the full force of her well-practiced snark turned on you.  She is slender, some have even gone so far as to suggest scrawny, though her arms have some muscle to them and she carries herself confidently in a manner that belies some martial training.

<tr>J'Lyneth Khal is no one noteworthy, just another tribal Miqo'te who left the wilderness for the (debatably) greater opportunities available in the city-states. She didn't even get off the boat before she'd fallen in with disreputable sorts and now she makes her, admittedly meager, living on the seas when she's not playing messenger, trader and all around errand girl for her Captain in far flung and land locked corners of Eorzea.<br /><br />
 
  
She is generally good-natured, though prone to snark and utterly incapable of remaining serious for more than a minute or two outside of a dire, life or death crisis. Her friends mostly find this endearing. until it isn't.<br />
+
'''Voice:''' Lyneth has a soft voice with a melodic lilt to it. Some effort has been made to incorporate a hint of a Limsan accent into her speech but it is slapdash and not very convincing.

: Soft-featured with very large eyes, she looks a fair-bit younger than her eighteen years, though calling her "kid" is a real quick way to get the full force of her well-practiced snark turned on you. Her taste in clothing has slowly shifted away from the practical fight-ready garments she once favored to tailored coats in fine materials and a massive collection of hats. With feathers. She carries herself confidently in a manner that belies some martial training. She hasn't been sailing long enough yet to have developed the sea dog's bow-legged swagger but if she's been out for a lengthy sojourn a slight wobble in her gait will be evident when she gets back to port. This is made much worse by the amount of carousing she tends to do when in port, as well.

:Lyneth nocked an arrow and stared down the length of it at her target; a sandscale peiste, skinned and stuffed. She had just watched her elder sister Lhiira put an arrow through the hole where the eye had been. She didn't think that she could make that shot herself, but that gaping maw would serve almost as well.<br />
 
<br />
 
She was painfully aware of the Nuhn's eyes on her back and of the importance of showing him her progress. Khal was a busy man, with many children to oversee. Another chance to impress him might not come along for moons.<br />
 
<br />
 
Her arms were shaking with tension by the time she released the arrow, and watched it sail wide, missing the target utterly. There was a murmur of laughter from behind her that fell abruptly silent as her sire turned to glare at the gigglers. His expression softened when he returned it to her face. She blinked rapidly to try and clear the tears from her eyes.<br />
 
<br />
 
"Keep practicing, Netha."<br />
 
<br />
 
That was all. The small crowd that had gathered dispersed as the Nuhn strode away, leaving Lyneth to collect her scattered arrows and put away her gear in shaky silence, teeth clenched against the sobs fighting to bubble up from her chest.<br />
 
@~'~~<br />
 
"Hells with him," Lhathus said from her doorway. Lyneth wiped her eyes and tried to pretend it was a nap he'd interrupted instead of a lengthy cry.<br />
 
<br />
 
"Him and every bugger who laughed," her brother continued, flopping down on the bed beside her. "I was watching faces. Some people are going to find an unpleasant surprise in their bedding tonight."<br />
 
<br />
 
The yawn she was faking gave way to a laugh and she shimmied up to kiss her brother on the cheek. "You're very sweet, but please don't. Don't want to give our sire even more reason to think I'm still a child."<br />
 
<br />
 
"You are still a child, Netha," Lhathus ruffled her hair, laughing as she turned her head to bite at his hand.<br />
 
<br />
 
"Don't call me that," Lyneth sulked. "I hate it. It's a baby name."<br />
 
<br />
 
"Would you rather just be 'Tia'?" Lhathus was still laughing but there was a bitter edge to it now. "That's all I am, half the time, when the Nuhn deigns to speak to me at all. Don't be so quick to throw away that affectionate pet name, Lyneth. You're the only one us he ever gave one to."<br />
 
<br />
 
He ruffled her hair again before sliding off the bed. "Anyway, dinner's ready, stop sulking and come eat, eh?"

:The whole tribe clustered around the ring of stones, festive chatter filling the air, a stark contrast to the grim silence that had hung over the last challenge. Lyneth let it wash over her, tried to let it lift the dread from her chest. The last challenge had cost her a brother. She wondered what this one would cost.<br />
 
<br />
 
''"You'll only be in the way," Lhathus said, turning his back to her firmly. "I'll barely be able to feed myself in the city, won't need a child hanging off my tail, dragging me down."''<br />
 
<br />
 
Challenger and Nuhn knelt on opposite sides of the ring, equidistant from the weapons in the center, and waited on the cry that would signal combat. Lyneth felt her eyes dragged onto Shihan. To the dark braid hanging over his shoulder, the sweat glistening on his brow, the tense pursing of his lips.<br />
 
<br />
 
''"Like a fall of rain in the heart of the wastes." Shihan whispered against her lips. His thumb grazed along her cheek, leaving an aching heat behind it as he drew away, slipping from her side as the rest of the hunting party caught up to them.''<br />
 
<br />
 
Across the ring and apart from the crowd, Rhosahl paced. Favorite mate of J'Lhator Nuhn and heavy with his child, she stood to lose a great deal if this challenge was successful. Lyneth felt a brief stab of guilt for wishing such hurt on her.<br />
 
<br />
 
''Lhathus ducked to the side, spinning away from Lhator's blow and the Nuhn stumbled. He had overextended, leaving his side exposed. One strike and the challenge would be over. And Lhathus simply laughed and tapped his brother's side with the flat of his blade, as though this bout were merely sport. Lhator growled and answered with an uphand swing that opened a gash across the Tia's face, from cheek to forehead, spraying blood across the sands.
 
''<br />
 
<br />
 
The crowd fell still in anticipation as the moment approached, all eyes on the combatants. The cry sounded and they moved as one, darting across the sand to lay claim to their weapons and gain the first strike. Speartip was batted aside by blade, counter thrust sidestepped and spear brought round again in a whistle of wood and bone. So it begins.<br />
 
<br />
 
''Lyneth felt Shihan's back tense against hers and her feet started to move, matching his turn, keeping them back to back even as she loosed one arrow and drew another. The bolt struck the amalj'aa warrior in the shoulder but did not slow his charge. She took a spinning side-step of her own and Shihan moved with her, spear at the ready to gut the enemy as he fell upon them and her second arrow lodged in the beastman's throat. The Amalj'aa were falling back. As the victory shouts of the tribe rose up around them, she met her hunting partner's amber eyes and laughed and laughed.''<br />
 
<br />
 
Lhator kept the fight close and fierce, pressing the advantage of his greater size and weight. Shihan ducked another blow, but he was tiring and clearly growing frustrated as his every attempt to gain enough ground to make use of his weapon's greater reach was thwarted. His eyes rose to meet Lyneth's and she darted her own, briefly, to the left. He feinted in that direction and the Nuhn followed, realizing the mistake an instant too late. His leg was overextended, the knee a tempting target, and his opponent spinning into a strike.<br />
 
<br />
 
''"You had him! One strike and you'd have won. Why did you tease him instead?" Lyneth scowled at her brother from the doorway.''<br />
 
<br />
 
''"You think I wanted to kill my brother?" Lhathus hissed at her between gritted teeth trying not to tear the stitches on his cheek. He would keep the eye. And the scar. "You think I ever actually wanted to be Nuhn?"''<br />
 
<br />
 
''"You acted like you did," Lhiira sneered as she packed up her medical supplies. "Sneaking off into the brush with a different huntress every evening. What did you think was going to happen?"''<br />
 
<br />
 
''"Exactly what did happen," he said bitterly, rolling onto his side, back to the door. "Get out, the pair of you. The wounded need to rest."''<br />
 
<br />
 
The shaft of the spear came down on the Nuhn's knee with a sharp crack and Lhator screamed and crumpled to the sands. Shihan took a step back, spear at the ready for an advance but none came. The blade slipped from the Nuhn's grip and the crowd exploded into cheering, save for Rhosahl who rushed to her mate's side and Lyneth who watched her hunting partner being swarmed by the congratulatory crowd with an odd sort of detached dread.<br />
 
<br />
 
''There was a ripple of movement from within Rhosahl's stretched stomach and Lyneth drew her hand back quickly. The older woman laughed. "She's feisty today."''<br />
 
<br />
 
''"Doesn't it hurt?" Lyneth pressed a hand against her own, flat, stomach with a grimace and Rhosahl laughed again.''<br />
 
<br />
 
''"You'll have one of your own, someday. If we ever get a Nuhn who isn't one of your brothers."''<br />
 
<br />
 
''Lyneth made a face. "Long way off, then. Thank the Twelve." A hand fell on her shoulder, making her jump.''<br />
 
<br />
 
''Shihan backed up a pace, laughing. "Whatever were you talking of, I wonder, to put you so far off your guard?"''<br />
 
<br />
 
"The Nuhn requires you this evening," the messenger gave a small bow at the doorway and Lyneth's heart leapt into her throat. She glanced over at her eldest brother, injured knee propped up on a cushion as Lhiira finished securing the splint.<br />
 
<br />
 
"He wastes no time," Lhator huffed, laying his head back in Rhosahl's lap. She, at least, would not be called for until after the child was born.<br />
 
<br />
 
Lyneth set down the knife she had been using to cut bandages and wiped, suddenly clammy, hands on her breeches. She rose on trembling legs to face the messenger only to be met with a mocking smirk. "Not you." The two words knocked the breath from her and she sank back to her seat in a daze as Lhiira looked up from the finished splint and nodded, rising gracefully to follow the messenger from the room.<br />
 
<br />
 
''He hadn't made it ten paces before Lhathus turned and swept her up into a fierce embrace. "I'll come back for you, Netha." he whispered. "I promise. As soon as I've scraped enough together to make a half-way decent home for us. There's a world out there where we can be whatever and whoever we wish, not just play the roles laid out for us by tradition. I'll map it out for the pair of us. Just be patient til then."''<br />
 
<br />
 
Lyneth leaned against the wall of her room and waited for the tears to come. They wouldn't. A steely resolve was rising in their place, flooding her senses, drowning out all else.<br />
 
<br />
 
"I can't wait for you, Lhathus. I can't stay."

:Lyneth padded across the decks in bare feet. She'd grown accustomed enough to the rolling of the ship not to be in danger of losing her meager dinner with every swell, but her legs were still unsteady. The Roegadyn woman glanced up as she approached and gave a little nod to indicate that company would be welcome before returning to the tuning of her instrument. Lyneth perched on a crate to watch her fingers move across the strings, a pluck here, another bit of fiddling with the knobs that tightened them, a strum, a frown, more fiddling. The Seeker watched the waves and the sky, the distant shadow on the horizon that promised land soon. A series of plucked notes in proper tune drew her eyes back to the larger woman.<br />
 
<br />
 
"Sing the song about the mermaid," Lyneth said softly. It was a silly song with all the dirty words replaced at the last moment with more acceptable alternatives that did not rhyme, leaving the audience to guess what the replaced words had been. Lyneth had found it to be quite an education though she still wasn't sure what was supposed to rhyme with "dispatch."<br />
 
<br />
 
"That's a song for a crowd, isn't it love?" The blue skinned woman said with a smile. "And a jollier mood than this mist has left me in." She strummed idly for a moment and Lyneth watched in silence, marveling at the deftness of her fingers and the complicated rhythms they could draw from six stretched strands of metal wire. After a moment a somber melody emerged and then the woman's voice lifted to join it.<br />
 
<br />
 
''I have put my days and dreams out of mind''<br />
 
''days that are over''<br />
 
''dreams that are done''<br />
 
''Though we seek life through''<br />
 
''we shall surely find''<br />
 
''there's none of them clear to us now''<br />
 
''not one''<br />
 
''But clear are these things''<br />
 
''the grass and the sand''<br />
 
''where sure as the eyes reach''<br />
 
''ever at hand''<br />
 
''with lips wide open and face burnt blind''<br />
 
''the strong sea daisies feast on the sun''<br />
 
''The loves and hours''<br />
 
''of the life of a man''<br />
 
''they are swift and sad''<br />
 
''being born of the sea''<br />
 
''hours that rejoice and regret for a span''<br />
 
''born of a man's breath''<br />
 
''mortal as he''<br />
 
''Loves that are lost''<br />
 
''ere they come to birth''<br />
 
''weeds of the wave''<br />
 
''without fruit upon earth''<br />
 
''I lose what I long for''<br />
 
''save what I can''<br />
 
''my love, my love''<br />
 
''and no love for me''<br />
 
<br />
 
Lyneth could find no words when the song was done, eyes drifting back to the waves if only to avoid having to meet her companion's gaze. After a moment the older woman laughed.<br />
 
<br />
 
"It's not my song, nor writ bout any of my own troubles. I've no wish to burden you with a confession, little one," She stowed the instrument, still chuckling. "Still a proper enough lament for them as takes the sailor's life. Sea's a fine place to go to run from the pain o' the past. And no one aboard'll ever be so chiseling as to ask ye what you're running from."<br />
 
<br />
 
"Not from," Lyneth answered, eyes still on that promise of land on the horizon. "To."

<tr>I am always happy to have walk-up RP and if you want to claim to know my character from someplace, I will usually play along. Best bet for that angle is to claim to have met her in some tavern somewhere. She doesn't clearly remember a lot of those encounters anyway. Also, despite the character being incapable of staying serious for long, her player is more than willing to delve into dark or disturbing themes so long as permission is asked before causing the character any serious, long-term physical or psychological damage.

She became very fond of him despite his social awkwardness and frequent bouts of melancholy gloom. He made some awkward attempts to court her which she, quite frankly, had no idea what to do with. Her attraction to him very quickly cooled under the intensity of commitment he expected from her and the speed at which he expected it. After her attempts to bring things back to a more casual arrangement failed miserably the two opted to give one another some space to sort out their respective feelings. They have barely spoken since.<br />

Lovely Lyneth.png

Soft-featured with very large eyes, she looks a fair-bit younger than her twenty cycles, though calling her "kid" is a real quick way to get the full force of her well-practiced snark turned on you. She is slender, some have even gone so far as to suggest scrawny, though her arms have some muscle to them and she carries herself confidently in a manner that belies some martial training.

Scars & Markings: None visible.

Voice: Lyneth has a soft voice with a melodic lilt to it. Some effort has been made to incorporate a hint of a Limsan accent into her speech but it is slapdash and not very convincing.


Clothing: Her taste in clothing has slowly shifted away from the practical fight-ready garments she once favored to tailored coats in fine materials and a massive collection of hats. With feathers.

Lyneth is generally good-natured, though prone to snark and utterly incapable of remaining serious for more than a minute or two outside of a dire, life or death crisis. Her friends mostly find this endearing. Until it isn't.

Family and Friends

Akhutai Urit ( ) ( PC ) - The Thorn in My Heart
What started as playful banter and endless snark became a fierce friendship and eventually a fierce love. Though she can become genuinely frustrated with the taciturn lizard and the constant storm of chaos he seems to attract, he has earned her devotion, her protection and occasionally her nagging.
Arblis Ellhis ( ) ( PC ) - Marmot
An ever-bounding bundle of energy that Lyneth finds utterly charming and has come to rely on for that little push of honesty she often can't quite muster on her own but that is sometimes needed to broach an awkward but necessary conversational topic. As a bonus, the girl is simply a joy to talk to.
Flora Valerian ( ) ( PC ) - Coeurl Girl
Though the relationship started on somewhat rocky footing, Lyneth has come to respect the Ala Mhigan woman more than she'll probably ever admit aloud. However, much as she admires the focus, dedication and certainty with which her friend goes through life, she still thinks that Flora deserves a chance at a childhood, even a belated one and often attempts to 'help' with that, with hillariously predictable results.
Ilthus Dawnsinger ( ) ( PC ) - J'lhathus Tia
Closest of her siblings to her in age and the perrenial black sheep of the tribe. Lhathus left three years before she did. They have only just recently rediscovered one another in the wider world and are in the process of rekindling their previously close relationship.
J'khal Nuhn ( ) ( NPC ) - Father
Lyneth's father and longtime Nuhn of their branch of the J. Killed in an Amalj'aa raid when Lyneth was 13.
J'lhator Tia ( ) ( NPC ) - The Fallen Nuhn
Lyneth's eldest brother and Nuhn of the tribe for a time after her father's death. That honor was lost in a challenge 5 years later. Gave his life to allow his former mate and their cub to escape when the tribe was pushed from the desert by the Amalj'aa.
J'lhethra Uhrtono ( ) ( NPC ) - Mother
Lyneth's mother. Taken in the same raid that killed her father. Presumed dead. She doesn't like to consider the alternative.
J'lhiira Khal ( ) ( NPC ) - The Gilded Viper
Lyneth's eldest sister. Beautiful, deadly, ambitious and utterly ruthless in pursuing her goals. The needs and feelings of others are rarely considered. She and Lyneth don't see eye to eye on much.
J'shihan Tia ( ? ) ( PC ) - The Hand That Moves With Mine
Lyneth's assigned hunting partner in the J tribe and a man she was desperately and hopelessly in love with. His successful challenge of her brother and elevation to Nuhn of the tribe led to her leaving it to seek out a life elsewhere. A Nuhn cannot devote himself to one above all others. She chose to remove the temptation. Since the tribe was pushed from their lands he has given up the title and its duties but neither of them can say any longer what their feelings now are for each other. Time will tell.
N'khai Nunh ( ) ( PC ) - The Masked Goat
His motives are inscrutable, his manner shifts with the wind, she can't predict his reactions or control an encounter with him in the slightest and yet she trusts him implicitly and believes him when he says the word 'friend.' That's a stable enough foundation to build on. What's actually being built remains to be seen.
Piers Hayward ( ) ( PC ) - Eye of the Storm
Although their first meeting involved her rescuing him from death at the hands of an angry Amalj'aa, the pair have been through enough together in the cycles since that she's given up on keeping a tally of who owes who how many lives. He is her partner, her best friend, her favorite target for barbs and jests and the person she trusts more than anyone else in all of Hydaelyn. No matter how dark, chaotic or just plain strange her life may become, Piers Hayward will always be there. The love of her life, though that love has been strictly platonic for some time now.
Xehn'a Hmyr ( ) ( PC ) - Butterfly
A chance encounter in a Limsan tavern. Romantic fictions batted about over a bottle of brandy. He offered another encounter and then another; windmills, waterfalls, rooftop chases, swordfights in the rain. A swirling dance of chaos that, looking back, was either the worst series of choices she's ever made, or the best. A gulf of silence has opened up between the two in recent days, neither staying still long enough for the other to make contact and discover if the flame that once burned there can be rekindled, or if the time apart has snuffed it out.


Others


Aimee Mayuzuma ( ) ( PC ) - The Bartender
Lyneth does not know the woman well but anyone who can serve a cocktail that perfectly suited to her tastes is a person to keep around as far as she's concerned.
Anneliese Valerian ( ) ( PC ) - Mama Coeurl
Though she has only met the woman a few times, Lyneth has full confidence in her abilities as a medic and her common sense. She is also ever so slightly terrified of her.
Atlas Irvine ( ? ) ( PC ) - Hummingbird
Had she known in advance that she was blithely strolling over the edge of a cliff she might never have approached the man at all. Or might have done so sooner. There's an intensity in those odd eyes of his that burns away every attempt at pretense or snark or any of her usual social defenses. She is naked under his gaze. Every time. She's still not sure why she didn't just run.
Cailleagh Hayward ( ) ( PC ) - The Ice Queen
Piers' sister and, of late, the primary source for job opportunities for the pair. Relations between Lyneth and Cailleagh tend to be somewhat icy and full of backhanded compliments and barbed retorts even when they're both really trying to get along.
Devereau Beauregard ( ) ( PC ) - Purple Peacock
It was the clothes. She's never even tried to pretend otherwise. There was simply no way to walk past the man without saying something complimentary. Then he started talking and it was all over. She was hooked, and had to know more. Her friendship with the flamboyant elezen has been largely casual and intermittent with her using him as a cultural translator of sorts, when she's able to translate anything the man says. She's fairly certain he's getting paid by the syllable. It's the best explanation she can come up with.
Ghalleon Helseth ( ) ( PC ) - Walking Parable
Never judge a book by its cover. That is what they say. And it's a lesson well worth heeding where the Ishgardian born priest of Nald'thal is concerned. While, on first meeting, she was eager to write the man off as a stuffed robe, she has since come to respect and even admire his gentle spirit and unwavering faith. His very enthusiastic appreciation of her cooking has also endeared the man to her more than slightly.
Keimhmal Syhrbhirwyn ( ) ( PC ) - Provider of Odd Drinks
Lyneth is curious about the woman and would like to get to know her better, or at least learn where she buys her alchemical concoctions.
Klynestyn Ketteram ( ) ( PC ) - Friend Kly
A calming presence, despite being three times her size. She's fond of the Roe, even if she doesn't know him particularly well.
Landenel Peaumasquier ( ) ( NPC ) - Only Good Reason to Set Foot in the Shroud
Lyneth met the man in a tavern during a lengthy recuperation from a nasty tumble off a very large tree and they soon became drinking buddies and swappers of outlandish stories. She still doesn't know that most of his are actually true. As frequent recipient of packages and letters from LaNoscea they still see one another with some regularity and she will often stay for drinks as she quite enjoys his company, even if he is a terrible cheat at cards.
Some of these rumors are untrue, speculation, or are greatly exaggerated. Please feel free to add your own rumors under the Player Character category!

◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first!

    ""Any tale you tell her will find it's way back to you in a few moon's time, embellished beyond recognition. The girl has a positive gift for outlandish fancies." -Landenel, Camp Tranquil"

    ""What, that skinny Miqo'te wench that hangs about the place, mooning over the Captain? Yeah, I know her. Who's asking?" - Bodyguard at the Seventh Sage"
    ""Heard her whole tribe's been caught up in indenture to some merchant in Ul'dah. Don't loan her any money. She'll just pour it into that hole and you'll not see it again. " - Bartender in Vesper Bay"

◢ Player Character Rumors - Feel free to add rumors of your own!

    "Sure, she can be a handful, but I guess I'm not really one to talk. She's good to those around her though, that's what's important. Wait, did she put you up to this?" - Piers Hayward
    "The dread pirate Lyneth? Have you been hiding under a rock? She is the Seductress of the Seas, the Dame of the Depths, the Crimson Rapier! I once saw her enter a tavern, gut seven men who looked at her funny, command the loyalty of seven sailors, and charm seven more to follow her fates know where... All I know is that they are the luckiest ones of all...." - Xehn'a Hmyr
    "By the Braves, Lady Khal you speak of?" Atlas Irvine began with a telling smirk, "An intelligent and beautiful woman with little doubt in any mind, however her cleverness in word and action might leave one caught off guard. Surely though, do not mistake this for complaint. There is a truth and trust to her beyond most masks that adorn those vibrant eyes. What's not to enjoy? Hm?"
    "When Lyneth and I are in the same room, nobody can ever be upset. We rip people's problems right out, and if comfort and sweetness will help? BAM Lyneth has it covered! If a more aggressive touch is needed? BAM I got em! We make the perfect team! ... Sort of." - Arblis Ellhis

Personal RP Limits

I will play mature content and themes (violence, sexuality, drug / alcohol use) as long as they're logical in a plot-driven encounter. Coarse and excessive language. Temporary injury and incapacitation. Temporary imprisonment. Most walk-up encounters.
Ask about long-term and/or permanent injury and disfigurement. Long-term captivity or imprisonment.
I won't play permanent character death or rape plots.
Disclaimer
