"I Might Be Young, But I'm Not Stupid"
L'rinhi Kett is a seventeen year old Miqo'te from the Seeker of the Sun clan. She is the only daughter of the late Kett Nuhn and L'raya Rinh'i and sister to L'raha Nunh; the two of them are of the few remaining survivors of the Viper Tribe of the Southern Sagoli Desert. Over the years, she took up conjury and proved herself as a capable protector and healer. Her and her brother traveled many years throughout the land of Eorzea before finally settling down in Ul'dah. Her passion and desire to help others drove her to form the small company known as The Wayfarers of Eorzea. The company started small only containing four members for the majority of it's infancy. As time went on, Rini found herself alone in Ul'dah with her friends all traveling to unknown destinations. During her time of solitude, Rini had made plans to further her now almost nonexistent company. With the help of an interested investor, Rini opened Wayfarer's Rest in the Goblet and began to build a refuge for others. In only a few months time, she had her 'dream' ready to open and she was reunited with her brother. As the company grew, complications arose that convinced Rini that her company was better off without her. Lately, she has began to see life in a new way, and retained her company once again, rebuilding it to as it was when she treasured it so dearly. Nevertheless, she pushes forward with a wounded soul but an impervious spirit.

Rini as a Lunette by Kousagi

Rini is quite pale for a desert farer, usually found wrapped up in bulky robes or long sleeves. Her hair is naturally snow white, coming down under her jawline and to the nape of her neck when properly kept. Additionally, the tips of her hair are dyed a deep crimson red for personal reasons. Her eyes are a very light green, lustrous in a way, and possibly her most notable feature. As with many of the Kett family, her eyes are still hold the deep shade of green, but, unlike her brother, her eyes carry an iridescent glow that makes them shine brighter than her kin. This has been linked to the amount of aether that she currently possesses. When casting a higher teir of magic, thus burning more Aether, her eyes take on an even brighter glow.

L'Rinhi Kett by Xenellia

Her face has a soft, rounded shape and her lips are rather plain and only lush on occasion; she abhors makeup and will only wear anything related to it for certain occasions, save for the two tribal markings under her eyes.

She is rather short for a Miqo'te, but this is arguably because of her age. It is interesting to note that her tail is slightly longer than her older brother's and lacks the bushiness due to her grooming. She keeps her hair and fur neat and cut short. She would appear a little "chunkier" then most Miqo'te, but one might ponder if it is the bulky robes worn or all the sweets she consumes. When not wearing robes, she would seem an average build with a few extra pounds around her hips. Rini also has a very distinct and large scar on her chest in the shape of three claws. It starts just above her right breast and cuts at an angle between her bosom. While the wound is healed and the scaring is light, some might still see it from the top of her cleavage. Other the the few scars here and there, Rini takes care of her body relatively well. She bathes daily and keeps lavender in her clothes after washing to retain the smell. One might also catch a hint of sweets among her as well.

♦ Behaviour

---

Rini was normally always a very

L'rinhi Kett by Braeya Vilheim

energetic, upbeat girl who wandered throughout the world with an ignorant bliss. From her mannerisms to her speech, L'rinhi thinks, acts, and speaks with innocence. Though this isn't exactly by choice, Rini would see things for what they are, often overlooking and missing inside jokes or innuendos. With a hyperactive personality and blissful ignorance, she could turn from being overly cheerful to dumbstruck and lost with a single comment. Though this is a flaw in many ways, she never hesitated to help someone in need no matter the problem and tends to try to befriend the most unlikely of candidates.

When she assumed the rank of Matron and began to lead her company, Rini pushed herself to have a more serious and thoughtful persona. While she still hel onto her empathetic attitude, she had adapted it into a protective and comforting state. Because of this Rini tried to act older than she really was and threw weight that never was entirely there. Though her heart was in the right place, this led to conflicts with others when they suggest a firmer action or question her authority. In the end, Rini is still a young, teenage girl.

Throughout the course of time, many of L'rinhi's innocent traits have endured, but that's not to say that time hasn't changed her. The better those around her get to know her, the more some realize she's not as cheerful as she puts on. With the burden of leadership comes the stress and responsibility that is associated with it. This can even go as far as pushing her into a depressive state that leaves her thinking over her choices, both good and bad.

After her departure from her company, and passing leadership to another, Rini has slowly, but surely, began to drift back to her old carefree, 'innocent' state. But even so, the miqo'te has grown, and with every day comes more experience as she wanders into the age of adulthood. But regardless of what omen life brings her, well or ill, it seems that Rini will always be Rini.

♦ Equipment

---

L'rinhi's equipment varies on a day by day basis. Her casual wear varies from simple tunics and skirts to long robes and armor. There is very rarely a time that she would be found without an earring with a large pearl hanging from her ear; a momento of her mother. Rini's pockets and belt usually contain an assortment of items for her daily life including: Her linkshell, her mother's ring, a coinpurse and sack of herbs attached to her belt, a bottle of water, a bottled elixer, and one can usually find several cookies wrapped in cloth stuffed in her pocket.

Outfits

The following are just a few outfits that Rini can by found in on occasion.

Battle Healer

L'rinhi's Combat Garb Rini's Battle Healer attire consists of thick, over lapping layers of vanya silk with a metal frame woven into the fabric. This thin metal frame is covered by Thavnairen silk dyed gold, but not all the borderings of this nature conceal part of the frame. Several large, smooth stones are built into the metal frame; these stones are actual large pieces of various resistance materias, aiding in the magical defense of the armor. A small, intricate tiara carved out of a chunk of moonstone accompanies the robes. For her hands, a delicate, silk wrapping held together by a round, copper medallion. For her legs, simple, black, linen tights that stretch to form around her figure for easier movement. Her boots are made of a very tough, flexible leather; while there is a slight heel in the sole of the boots, the bottom is flat. Though the dangers of the world are ever changing, and there are far superior outfits as time moves on, L'rinhi has a hard time replacing pieces of her armor with new ones, seeing them in a light that they have become part of her.

White Mage Robes

L'rinhi in her White Mage Replica Coat She can occasionally be found wearing robes resembling the ones wore by the Padjal. Though she studied under one for some time they were not officially given to her. They were instead crafted by her as an imitation. Rini frequently attempts to re-craft weapons and armors that she reads about or finds throughout the world. These robes were no different, crafting not only one but two versions of these robes. They have several pockets and pouches crafted into the garment. Unlike her battle robes, these robes offer little protection to physical attacks.

The Heart of Ul'dah

The Heart of Ul'dah Named more for a persona than the clothes themselves, this outfit is little more than a Goldsmith's attire. Another outfit she crafted her, This was the first project that Rini mixed her skill of Weaving and her passion for Goldsmithing. The result was mediocre, but this has been Rini's favorite set of clothes to wear during her relations with her company. As such, her compassion for people and her passion for her work has inspired some to look up to her. This is currently the most complimented outfit she has

History

The Early Years

Rini was one of the last daughters born unto a small Viper Tribe that migrated among the Southern Sagoli Desert. The second born between Kett and L'raya, Rini was sheltered for the majority of her tribal life. In the latter years, and the coming of the end of the tribe, she was allowed to befriend a small number of the other children who did not see her as an outcast. While Rini herself does not recollect this memory, the tribe was not as open minded to her father's choice of taking a keeper as his mate; before their departure, this joining would almost result in an uprising. After the events of Dalamud, Rini, now age nine, and her brother found themselves homeless after an invasion by a neighboring Amalj'aa tribe. They wandered the desert and almost died themselves if not for the help of a wandering merchant.

The two children aided the merchant for the next several months and tried to cope with what was now their lives. Rini always had the feeling that her mother would come back and retained this hope for many years to come. The merchant, only known to Rini as Farce, would pass on many of the skills that she would continue to use even in present day. During their travels they would both learn how to wield a sword or, in Rini's case, a dagger in order to protect themselves. It was also during this time that Rini found her affinity for aether. While faint, she began to hear the call of the elements and learned the most basic and crude of healing magic. However, their new found guardian became very ill within a year into their journey and passed on in a small inn on the outskirts of Ul'dah. Even with Rini's new found power, she was no skilled enough to save him. Driven and determined, the children began to take on work in the local cities.

At first, the city was very unforgiving to the children. Many refugees had already took up making camp outside the city walls and the majority of work that was within their means was taken. Ra, her brother, had turned fifthteen that summer and began taking leves from the workboard that required combat. These times were especially dark for L'rinhi as she was solely dependant on her brother. Day in and day out she would notice more and more of the cuts, bruising, and gashes that littered his body. On more than one occasion she would attempt to heal him, but only resulted in herself fainting. Even with her brother's hard work, the children would live on bread most days; something that Rini herself started to resent and abhor. This continued for several months, but in this time Rini found a way to make her own small amount of income. Each day she would gather reeds and weave them into baskets. While these didn't supply them with much it was the first time Rini felt that she had finally contributed to her brother and the world around her. As she started to grow, she insisted on accompanying Ra on several leves and trying, once again, to prove herself useful. These did not always go well and ,more often than not, caused more trouble than actually assisting. One instance inparticular, had them escorting a wagon between Blackbush and Ul'dah. While she had good intentions, it is known that the wagon ended up crashing into the river and its cargo swept downstream.

New Gridania and the Orphanage

L'rinhi and L'raha never stopped believing that their parents were out there, somewhere in the world waiting to be found. After several years the children were becoming more efficient and were able to slowly save money for their journey to come. At age thirteen, she left with her brother in search of their mother's homeland, the Black Shroud. After trekking through East Thanalan for several days, they took their first steps into the dark forest. Most of their journey was uneventful and fruitless as no one knew of their parents. As time passed, they found their selves in New Gridania. Rini took to the woods quickly, enjoying the atmosphere and climate. While wandering in city, the two siblings came across an orphanage. Both of them were allowed to stay and for the first time in her life Rini discovered what, to her, a real bed was. However, Ra was eighteen by this time and was not allowed to make permanent residence there. So Ra took this opportunity to join an order and train, honing his skills. While he would have to leave her, L'rinhi would finally have a home.

While Rini did not agree with her brother's decision, she grew comfortable among the other children and started to develop her personality. Once a very meek and shy girl, an energetic, upbeat, and positive young woman took her place. While living with the Matron she continued to practice her weaving trade, learned basic math, found a sense of morality, and, most importantly, found hope that there was more to life than dusty streets and stale bread; one of the older boys even thought her the basics of using a bow and hunting in the woods. These were good times in the young miqo'te's life and while she missed her brother dearly she was happy that she finally had a place to call home. After several months, Rini applied to the Conjurer's Guild in order to learn how harness her gift. While she struggled initially, within a year she had begun to catch on quickly with many of the advanced teachings, but still struggled with the art of mending.

Several years passed, she remained happy at the orphanage as she became proficient at weaving, hunting, and, most importantly, her Conjury. She would frequently spend many mornings hunting in the woods to bring her family fresh food and water. She had finally felt like she had a place to belong, but, even after years had passed, she had not forgotten the thoughts of her parents. On her 16th birthday, she was greeted by a man she would later come to know as Lynx, her father's younger brother. Lynx was not part of her tribe and had been in the world several years prior to the downfall of their clan. After explaining who he was, he presented her with an old, wooden staff that had previously belonged to her mother along with a small music box. While the music box no longer played, it contained several items that belonged to her; two rings, a necklace, and round, smooth stone. While she was enthused to have found another family member alive, Lynx left a few days later, stating that he had another to find. Later that year, the orphanage burned down, killing four of her friends and leaving her homeless yet again.

Siblings Reuinited

After the destruction of the orphanage due to an unknown cause, Rini migrated between staying at inns in the Shroud and the Shroud itself. With her Conjury classes taking most of her time, Rini did the small jobs that she could from the leve board to get by and fed herself. It was only 2-3 weeks before L'raha found her. An emotional reunion, the two reminisced and told stories of their lives in the time they were apart. Even after meeting their uncle and the passing of years, neither of them heard any news of their parents. The next morning they both agreed that they would travel back to ul'dah together and pick up where they left off, silently abandoning the search for her mother and father.

As she walked through the Southern Gate of Ul'dah, Rini returned to a familiar atmosphere, but now a grown and capable woman. It was evident that life had changed for them both once they began working together. Ra, whom spent the many years training himself, would be the front-runner as Rini protected him from afar, using the earth and elements to aid them in battle. From escorts to the Wanted, they pushed through and through each job and reaped the rewards. They went far from hungry, Rini enjoying their spoils with large dinners and desserts; she even grew fond of keeping cookies wrapped in her pocket. Now staying in an inn room full time, Rini started to miss her time at the orphanage and the people she grew to love. While they were not blood related to her, they were the closest thing to a family she had experienced at that point. With this grew an idea that would later blossom into a dream.

As they spent more time in ul'dah, they would both meet a variety of people. C'jihn Tia,a trader, was one of the first close friends Rini made during her free time in the stone city. Another male, Kyrio Lamansque, was the first person to ever show interest in her as a woman. Insulted at first, Rini avoided him most days in fear that she would be teased. Innocent from any carnal thoughts, Rini had yet to understand the meaning of love and didn't find attraction in people, regardless of gender. Eventually, they both would be reunited with another member who survived their tribe. Now calling herself Zy'dala, Zy'dala Shen was kipnapped before the raid on their tribe. The three found solace with each other, and, eventually, love. Ra and Zy would date off and on many months and became part of their daily lives. Within a few months, Rini finally had the family she was looking for in Jihn, Zy, and her brother, Ra. Occasionally they would even work together under the name "Wayfarers" that Rini had dubbed them. This put a spark in the small miqo'te, leading her to found a small company with the name "Wayfarers of Eorzea".

The Falling Out

Life progressed and time seemed to stand still. Each day was more full of life than the previous 15 years she had lived. Adventuring by day, relaxation at night, the siblings had finally found where they belonged. Except, to Rini at least, they were still missing something; a home. Thus, Rini began plans to build a house in the Goblet, a residential area for the citizens of Ul'dah. Days came and went until Rini began to realize that she would never be able to afford such a thing for her family. While they were far from poor, the market was far too high above what she could provide. With that, Rini was giving up

her 'dream' to make a home for herself and the others. During a wedding reception, Rini met Kyrio again. This would turn to be a pivot for two important events in the young girl's life as she found the man's admiration enchanting. They spent the night catching up and in the midst of the conversation Rini mentioned giving up on her dream. Ra, who was no stranger to eavesdropping on the two, overheard this and felt as though he had let his sister down. Dealing with his own problems, Ra left the reception that day without a word, and, to Rini's dismay, would not be heard from again for many months.

After that night, they began to part ways one after another: Jihn, went back to his merchant business and traveled to Limsa; Zy'dala, had joined a new company and began to work for the Flames again; but Rini remained in Ul'dah, alone again and heart broken at the loss of another family.

During this time, she met someone who would lessen the stress on her life and expose her to a new world. Her name was Floria, an interesting woman who had claimed to be a Hyur turned Miqo'te by a potion. While it was awkward, Rini slowly began to warm up to her new friend. Between working small leves and keeping enough gil to have a room, Rini would often visit her home in the Shroud, a building owned by the Everyn Academy. Her visits there taught her much, including the first time she had ever worked as a waitress. This exposed her to a new world, seeing how happy people could be in a peaceful setting with Waiters and Waitresses in a small environment. As time passed, she grew to feel different about her friend than she had before. Growing more and more attached, she had grown to love the woman who had taught her so much. However, this did not end as she had expected. Upon confessing her love to her friend, Floria regretfully turned her down, feeling there were too many years between them. Embarrassed, hurt, and confused, Rini made her way back to Ul'dah with a heavy heart, never returning to the small house in the Beds again.

The Aftermath and the Construction of Wayfarer's Rest

Rini gave up the life of an adventurer, unable to bring herself to use her bow again and not strong enough as a conjurer to complete them alone. Instead she began to waitress at the Quicksand, serving drinks and food to the patrons that resided there. Even after giving up on the dream, she still thought of it often, wondering what could have been and how much it would have helped the people in the world. The orphanage had done so much for her as a child, but what if there was a place for people in general. Ul'dah was still littered with refugees with no homes and little work. On occasion, she would sneak out plates of food to those on the street behind the establishment, but this wouldn't go unnoticed for long. The night of her 17th nameday, she bought a small cake and sat at the crates in which the four of them once shared. Alone, she ate the cake in tears, not quite understanding why life had led her down this road.

One day a man whom she was serving asked her a very precise question, "So you want to help people?". While the conversation was short, she briefly explained of what she had originally planned to do, but she lacked the money to push the project forward. While briefly encouraging her, the man told her to meet him outside the local Goldsmith's shop after her shift; reluctantly, she agreed. That night the man revealed himself to be Casmi Hawke, a runaway noble from Ishgard. He offered her a chance to have her home built if she would use the home to give him refuge and occasionally gather information and gossip for him. L'rinhi hesitated for only a moment before agreeing. If the man was teasing her she would only make a fool of herself, but if he was serious...She would finally have what was only a fleeting thought hours ago. Within only a few days she was given the deed to a plot and informed that construction would begin immediately. Stricken with disbelief, she hugged the man, thanked him, and made her way to see if the tale was actually true.

Construction began the following week and would last two months before it's completion. With the civil war in Ishgard growing more fierce, Rini found it an oppurtune moment to theme her home. Rather than serve as an orphanage, Rini made it a home for the homeless; anyone who needed a place to lay their head was welcome. Additionally, she turned the basement in a tavern to feed guests and provide drinks. Hawke also saw the potential of using the tavern to overhear gossip and information, fulfilling his request of L'rinhi. She would name her establishment, Wayfarer's Rest. She was only missing one thing, people.

Wayfarers of Eorzea

Within a few months of the completion of Wayfarer's Rest, Rini was given a second surprise; her brother had returned. Zy'dala would also return a few months later as well and the relationship between the two would grow more serious. As for Rini, she continued to work as a waitress as she furnished her business. Near the last moons of the year, Rini quit the job and began to work on her company full time. She would cycle between advertising, hiring, and planning the direction that the company would take. After much discussion, they decided the company would also serve as an inn for more income if the patrons only wanted to stay for a night or so. A man by the name of Gan, would soon be hired by Ra to help in the construction of their first airship, know as Kett's Pride. Rini grew to Gan quickly, finding reason and wisdom in him and his words. With him, came his mate Sarnai and they both agreed to join the company and make her home their own. After this point, many would join her ranks, including Casmi's childhood friend Magdelena. But she would also gain something very unexpected. While posting on the leve board in Gridania, she wandered upon a blind Au Ra, Arietty Moonfall. After a short conversation she learned that he woman was building a school. Being the Matron and business woman she had become, Rini wasted no time in forming an alliance with her. They met on several more occasions and it seemed that Rini inadvertently made a very close friend. On the 2nd day of the 6th Astral Moon, the doors were opened to the public. On the 9th day of the 6th Umbral moon, she held her first event for singles, employing the few that lived there. The event was unbelievable, surpassing even her biggest expectations. She had finally achieved what she had sought out to do those many months before.

The trend continued, with her and her company growing in popularity. With the experience she had learned from working at taverns before, she brought a comfortable, homey atmosphere for any who would walk through her door. More members joined to raise their families and for work. But not everything was so joyful, as Zy'dala and her brother fell out and resulted in her departure from the company. Gan, as well, would eventually depart. But, even as she lost two of her closest friends, something unexpected would happen to her again. Her close friend, Arietty, would ask for her to try dating. Unsure at first, Rini agreed, fearful that it would again ruin a friendship she treasured and, also, break her heart, but worried that saying no would hurt her friend instead. Unbeknownst to her, the integrity of her company, as well as he resolve and will, would soon be tested as a pianist from Ul'dah would soon stumble upon her doors.

The Dark Messenger

An Au Ra, whom was only know as The Dark Lord, made residence in her home. He brought with him a burden that struck at her heart. Bringing ill tidings that could result in a change in the balance of the elements, Rini agreed to help him on his quest. During his stay, many of the residents would have issues with him, whether it be by his rude nature or his dark intent. Rini began to question her judgement and his intentions. However, it would tear her company into a civil war between those who saw him as evil and those that saw him as good. Regardless of the infighting, Rini continued to aid him and observed his ritual. One of these excursions ended horribly, injuring almost every member except for the Dark Lord, whose name later was revealed as Stroud. Upon returning, a brawl broke out in the company hall, resulting in more injuries and fueling the hatred.

After the incident, Rini gave Stroud a choice. He was either to join the company, and abide by their rules, or depart from Wayfarer's Rest. He submitted, and swore to never cause strife in the company again. While this was enough for some it was not for others, and tensions would continue to grow through the next few months. Ra had also found a new love in this time in O'sena Rhen. Rini missed the next expedition that Stroud led, sick and exhausted from a conflict that threatened Arietty's life. Like the last, this expedition ended in terror as the two sides would end up trading words and blows. Members of both sides were beginning to question her leadership and judgement which led her to a great deal of stress. Stroud had comforted her days before, giving her permission to punish him to ease her pain. In the end, tension had reached its boiling point, and Rini sent the Dark Lord away.

The Cult of Drilltooth and an Unlikely Ally

Rini stepped away from most of her company duties, allowing others to do her chores as she pursued a means to get her mind. While working on a trade agreement with merchants in Ishgarde, Rini overheard that a cult of some sort was growing in the Brume. Curious, she wandered the Brume until she found the man who was preaching a 'heretic' type message. Ignorant to the ways of Ishgard, Rini looked on with curious eyes. Although she does not know why, the crowd rebelled against the man preaching, throwing stones and cursing him with foul words. Among the crowd was an elf, Evangeline Primrose, who sheltered the man to protect him. Being Rini, she rushed through the crowd to aid his wounds. It was then that an inquisitor appeared to take the man away. Rini pleaded for the man's life and, to the surprise of many, was able to convince him to spare both the old man and Evangeline. It was here that she first met Rhea Zaheela; it was here that Rhea first warned her that her innocence could cause her to be taken advantage of.

Two weeks later, she bumped into Rhea again, L'raha in tow, and assisted her in revisiting a library. Little did Rini or Rhea know, Evangeline had come prior to their arrival with others. Eva's descent into the library was not as peaceful as Rhea's and had angered the keeper. As Rhea was the one who first brought them there, she was held responsible for their actions and the stolen artifacts. It was here they were tasked in finding three stolen books; failure would come at the cost of Rhea's life. As they tracked Eva and the books down, Rini grew close to Rhea and made it her business to befriend her. Rini had felt she finally had the sister she had always longed for.

The Journey for Enlightenment and the Second Fall

Later that moon, Rini decided she would take a journey to find an old friend, Gan. In doing show, she hoped to learn his teachings to surpass what she had become as a conjurer. As she was planning her trip, more infighting would occur and the arguments had spread to her personal life with Arietty. Reluctant at first, Rini had finally grown to love the woman she once considered her best friend. But, with the arrival of unknown figures and hidden truths, a rift was starting to form between them and test their trust. In mix of frustration and anger, Rini threw down her mother's staff, Taeru, and shattered it against the floor of the tavern before leaving for several days.

When she returned, she apologize to the people in her company and Arietty, but still felt like the rift was growing between them. In order to save herself from further heartbreak, she announced that she would be leaving to Orchard. The morning of her departure, she asked Arietty for her hand in bonding, but she was rejected at that time. Arie made Rini promise to come back and when she did they would have the proposal open for the entire company. Rini took comfort in this and made peace with her friend and her company before leaving.

The journey itself was a failure, lacking any productivity whatsoever as she could find no traces of her long time friend. Three weeks later, Rini returned and stopped by Rhea's home for advice before heading back home. Embarrassed that she utterly failed, Rini found comfort in Rhea's words. The next day, Rini returned to her home and was greeted by Ari. Unlike what she expected, she was met with the words that she feared the most as Arie broke the relationship off. Rini did not take the breakup well, reacting irrationally and leaving Wayfarer's Rest yet again. For the next few months she would stay with Rhea, who accepted her, and made a home for her, with open arms.

Wayfarers Abandoned

For almost a full moon, Rini stayed in the confines of Rhea's home, either in bed or wandering through her extensive collection of books. Eventually, she was pressured to get back into the outside world and try to get back to her normal, cheery self. She had taken time to send her brother a letter and announcing that she wasn't coming back to Wayfarer's Rest and that the company should move on without her. During this time, L'rinhi took the time to wander through Ul'dah and meet new faces and friends. The most noteable would be the couple of Az'rhyael and Syerra Cian'brigh. The married couple took a special interest in Rini and helped boost her spirits during the day as Rhea continued to support her at night.

Some time later, half a moon or so, L'raha came to see Rini and asked for her to come back. O'sena had left the company and many of the members had left and went separate ways. He proposed that they rebuild the company together and move forward. Conflicted, Rini was not sure how to respond but reluctantly agreed to come back to the Rest. While much of it had changed, it was still home.

Rini agreed to help Ra put Wayfarers back together and began building her company back, filling it with new furnishings and rebuilding old relationships with companies they had dealt with in the past. In her free time, she continued to meet new people and forge new friendships. While she was rebuilding Wayfarer's, she still lived with Rhea at the time and decided that it would be for her best interest, and her friend's, if she found a new place to live. While she had the Rest, Rini still worried that she would have to leave it again one day wanted a home of her own. She started her search in Gridania's Lavender Beds but, inadvertently, got lost in the shroud. While asking for directions, she met a young woman, Tira, who aided her in finding her way.

Friends 💗 Rhea Zaheela – L'rinhi's best friend and "older sister". They bumped into each other after finding themselves in the middle of an uprising in Ishgard. After Fate crossed their paths together through several random events, Rini accompanied her as a mercanary for an expedition. As things took a turn for the worse, she took it upon herself that she would help Rhea whether she liked it or not; Ironically, Rini found herself asking for help more than giving it during the early stages of their friendship. Regardless of the origins, she looks up to the woman as the older sister she never had. ❤ Arietty Moonfall – Arietty and Rini met in Gridania one night while Rini was advertising the first event at Wayfarer's Rest. They became close very quickly, and remained good friends for several weeks before dating. Rini grew close to her over the next few months, but, in time, her loved one had a change of heart. The aftermath devastated the mi'qote's heart, however, she has pressed over nevertheless. 💘 Kyrio Lamansque – Kyrio and Rini met after Rini and Ra returned back to Ul'dah. She was put off by the male's advances at first, but ,as time and maturity set into her heart, it has slowly grown into a deep, secretive love. She often thinks of him, but she realizes and accepted the reality of never being able to tell him how she really feels. ● C'jihn Nunh – An old friend that Rini knew in her past. With a warm smile and always full of encouragement, Jihn became some Rini looked to in her hours of confusion in life. He's been missing for months and it's weighed on her mind since his absence. ● Gan – A domain who showed up at her tavern with Sarnai. He was first employeed to build an airship for their company by Ra, but soon after fell into the Wayfarers. He soon became a trusted friend and a place of consolement. He has been missing for many months after traveling back to his homeland. ● Oko Kaprei – A strange woman who Rini befriended in Ul'dah due to their grooming habits. ● – ● Floria Raine – An old friend whom is dear in Rini's heart. They met shortly after Rini returned to Ul'dah from her travels and grew closer the longer they spent together. But time has not been friendly to their friendship, and they have been growing further appart as life and time moved on. She was the first person Rini has ever had feelings for in the romantic sense and her memory still brings a soft smile to the miqo'te's heart.

Family 💗 L'Raha Nunh – Her older brother by five years, Ra has always held a special place in her heart dispite his overprotective nature. Though Rini had multiple half siblings, Ra is her only full blood brother. After the Calamity, he became the centerpoint of her life, and after the events of recent years that brought them back together, they still carry the same bond they shared as children. 💗 Zy'dala Shen – - Her sister-in-law,Zy and Rini have been close for several months and was the only friend the young Miqo'te had while her brother was missing. Because of this, she has formed a bond over time that borderlines romance. Recently, this has faded due to Rini's travels. Acquaintances ● Person Here – Enemies & Rivals ● Person Here -

Rumors

Player Character Rumors

The following rumours can be heard about Rini, predominantly in Ul'dah and Gridania. (If your character has an opinion about her, feel free to add it here.)

Common rumours

• That girl could lighten up a bit on the sweets. I've never seen anyone devour a dozen of cookies quite that fast.- Ul'dah Bakery
• The Miqo'te with the white and red hair with the hood? She comes in here and stares at the leve board; it's creepy.- Quicksand Waitress
• She runs a shelter for homeless folks down in the goblet. The soup is horrible, but the drinks are good.- Ul'dah Refugee

Uncommon rumours

• I hear she's in league with an Ishgardian Heretic, several of em actually. I suppose her crew don't care where you are from.- Quicksand Regular
• Rini Kett? Watch that kid around your customers. She sold me three music boxes and before she walked out of my shop she sold five to my customers for under half the price. She has no class.- Ul'dah Goldsmith

Rare rumours

• She's the daughter of L'raya Rinh'i? But wasn't she a Keeper of the Moon?- Gridanian Guard

What PCs are saying

■ "Unfortunately, some undistinguished gentlemen torment female Miqo'te who bear a little 'extra padding' around the hips. Such thoughts are abominable. Why, it is indisputable that plump kittens tend to offer the warmest cuddles. For example, Miss Rinny, who clearly enjoys the 'occasional' cookie, offers warm hospitality, kind, and hugs in droves. She's a real gem. Especially if you bring her something sweet to munch on." -- Sigurd Sundsteigen

From the Player

Some of the following sections contain OOC information about L'rini's Player and OOC spoilers of the character and her mindset...So...Spoiler alert.

About Me

This is just a little bit about me to let you know what type of player and role player I am and what you can expect from me if our characters cross paths. I've been roleplaying for about seven years now and have done so over several MMO titles. Most of my years were spent on World of Warcraft RPing as several characters on both factions. Other notable games include Guild Wars 2, Star Wars: The Old Republic, Rift, and even Runescape at one point back when I was very young and didn't know what roleplay was.

Roleplay Style

I have a very open mind when it comes to what can happen in a role play, but I do try to stay within the means of lore. I can short post, long post, paragraph post, post while moving, post while standing still, etc. While it sounds silly, I want you to know that I don't have a real standard for my RP as terms of length. I am fine with the casual conversations or the in-depth ones. I can match my rokleplay partner's style to whatever makes them comfortable. I am also 100% fine with those new to roleplay or Final Fantasy roleplay. If I can help, I will on most occasions. I, and my character included, both enjoy helping others out and being a positive force in the community. As for questionable things such as ERP and such, I don't mind it, but I don't pursue it or forsake story for it either. If ERP ever does happen, I don't do scenes that would be considered extreme.
