| − | Alothia grew up in the forest of the Eastern Shroud, near Hyrstmill. She came from a small family consisting of her father, mother and younger sister. Her childhood was a happy one, with the only problem being that her parents were always working and didn't have a ton of time to spend with her. Alothia saw what this did to her parents, this constant working, and decided that she didn't want to be a slave to work. It was about the same time that Alothia realized that she had a gift for getting people to like her and befriend her...she had become a manipulator. With these skills, she left home against the will of her parents at the age of 15. It was not a peaceful leaving, and things were said and done at the time that Alothia doesn't like to discuss.
| + | ~ |
| − | | |
| − | <spoiler>
| |
| − | "My mother's name was Aughinae and my father's Emet. We lived in a small community not far away from Hyrstmill. My parents didn't leave the tribes, their parents had left...so I never knew what it was like growing up in that world. But, because my family wasn't a part of that group, they had to work extra hard to make it." She sighed at this point. "I remember being little and trying to get my parents' attention...but they were always working on something...I know it wasn't always like that, but that's what I remember most."
| |
| − | She shifted a little. "When I was 8, my sister Lini was born. She was cute...but she took what little time my parents had for me away. Over the next 7 turns, I grew more and more distant from my home, and started hanging out with kids from other families, and a lot of the kids I met when we took trips to the city to sell our goods." She played with the hem of her top. "I liked the freedom of the cities. I liked the people I met there. They liked me...I found I was...good...at getting people to do what I wanted."
| |
| − | She took the next part slow. "I ran away at 15. I remember screaming at my parents. I remember my mother crying...and then I left. And I never went back."
| |
| − | Her eyes glazed over, old feelings being dredged up, tears pooling at their corners. "I never got to apologize...when we came back from the skip, I went there to find them...but the house was gone. It was completely burned to the ground. There was nothing left..."
| |
| − | | |
| − | She wiped at the tears still left in her eyes and went on. "Life in the city was...very strange. I had made it a point to myself that I wouldn't become lost in work. So instead, I found no work at all. Instead, I let other people work for me. They did the dirty work. They got hurt. And I didn't care. I didn't really know any of them. They were merely faces that I could utilize to my end. It was a very hedonistic way of thinking, I know." She shrugged, the familiar feelings flooding her again. "I would take on jobs and send people out of them. Usually they were legitimate. Things like delivering a package...at least that's how it started. But I grew greedy. And my heart hardened. Why shouldn't I make more money? What was to stop me?" She shuddered. "I felt...powerful. People as my little pawns to use to my own end. I wasn't the one doing the work, so why should I care? Why would I care?"
| |
| | | | |
| − | She clenched her fists, "And so I began to take on more dangerous lines of work. Theiving. Roughing. Murder." She laughed callously, "But my hands are clean...for the most part. There were a few...tasks...I rather enjoyed." She opened her palm to show the familiar burning flame. "I was quite the firestarter~" She blew into her palm until the flame went out again, then closed her hand and her eyes.
| + | '''"We are but simple folk, some of us farmers, some of us smiths, some of us husbands, some of us wives. Some of us have children, some of us have none but ourselves. Yet there is something that unites us all. We are all from Ala Mhigo, and we have all made a solemn vow to fight the Garlean Empire until we have regained control of the home that was torn from our grasp...the home we lost fifteen summers gone." ---Thoughts Of An Ala Mhigan.''' |
| | | | |
| − | “By the time I was 20, I had built quite a name for myself in the shadier circles. People came to me with jobs, and I took them all. My network of people was changing...I wasn't so sure what the people I was hiring were doing. Didn't care. I did befriend one girl...she was a young hyur thing. I suppose she reminded me of Lini. She wanted to please me so badly...so I sent her out on a job. I didn't think it would be a big deal. Go and steal a small thing..."
| + | ~ |
| | | | |
| − | "When...when we found her...she was mutilated...she had been raped...they cut words into her flesh and left her there...they knew she was working for me and left her barely alive....they would have given her mercy had they killed her." She closed her eyes again. "It hit me then, the gravity of my actions. I left the city and wandered after that. I needed time to think..." She sobbed then, small squeaking noises escaping from her lips. "I was a horrible person..."
| + | When the great tragedy that befell Ala Mhigo occurred at the hands of Garlemald, Lily was but a little girl, born into the nobility, and from an early age it was intended for her to take up the sword, to serve the people and in turn earning their respect as it was the duty. Ripped from her homeland and her parents, the fates of which she has never been able to ascertain, Lily had taken a nomadic life, migrating from settlement to settlement, until the journey finally brought her to Eorzea. There, Lily would mature, content to ignore and be ignored, as she aspired to be a champion for the people, in the hopes one day she would return to her homeland and drive the Garleans out. |
| | | | |
| | + | Of course even the best laid plans often go awry; before her dream could be realized, she had to sharpen her combat skills, acquire funding, and social standing. This would lead her to the city of Ul'Dah, where she would begin these trials of body and spirit. There she would meet Dyne Evans, who would show her how to get around, the common places of interest, and companies of employment. Through Dyne, Lily eventually found [[Corvus Cinis]], and though it was slow at first, she came to find a family within their organization, the likes of which she had not felt for many years. |
| | | | |
| − | </spoiler>
| + | It need not be said that Lily had grown close to Dyne, though the happiness that followed would not last, as he would meet his death, triggering a series of events to find his killer. Even so, Lily found trusting to others completely to be difficult, yet it did not hinder her day-to-day duties in Corvus Cinis. And that is how it would be, until the sorrow became memory, and she found comfort in her friends and "family" once more. Lily has been diligently performing the tasks assigned to her by Corvus Cinis, between journeys of training and self-awareness, ever since, right until the day of the Calamity. |

| − | The next few years of her life were not so good. She managed to do well for herself, but at the cost of others. Many people were used in order to keep Alothia afloat, including a young Miqo'te girl. She was one of Alothia's lackeys, and she was sent out to do a job...which ended up being much more than was bargained for. When the girl returned to Alothia; bruised, battered, and broken; Alothia finally saw firsthand the damage that she was doing to others. She stopped her illegal dealings, and managed to run into a childhood friend, Frosty Mouse, who managed to help her set up a small mercenary company.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The company thrived, growing from a small group of 2 or 3 workers, to a more extensive company. With the help of Zenge Eien, she named the company Corvus Cinis, after Zenge's old unit within the Garlean Army. While her company was thriving, she met one Mister Oskar Helvig, and they began a relationship. This relationship caused much dissension within the company as many of her employees did not like Oskar or the way that he seemingly manipulated Alothia.
| |
| − | | |
| − | About 4 moons into their relationship, Oskar felt that he needed a break, and he and Alothia parted ways. Lost in her loneliness, Alothia focused on her company, strengthening it's bonds and helping to bring new employees into the fold. She kindled a new relationship with colleague and friend, Zenge Eien with whom she feelt much more at ease. Their relationship was passionate and just what Alothia needed to bring her focus back to the company and what was important.
| |
| − | | |
| − | However, as the moons went on, Zenge grew more and more distant, spending much more time out on patrols for the Twin Adders. By the time the Calamity hit, Alothia and Zenge were completely separated. Zenge left, worried that his ties to the Garlean Empire would mean trouble for Alothia, and indeed they did. Constantly worried about being hunted down, Alothia fled deep into the Twelveswood to hide. She was not seen by the company nor any others for quite sometime. Yet the day that Dalmud fell, Alothia, determined to do her part, came out of hiding to help tend the wounds of those in the battle. While she did not see any of her companions there, she felt that she had at least done her part when it mattered most.

| − | Alothia appeared again in the middle of the Twelveswood completely bewildered and unsure of what had just happened. The next few weeks went by in a blur, Alothia searching the Twelveswood for people she knew. On her travels, she found Endricane, equally as bewildered. They made their way to Quarrymill, or what was left of it, to try to find Kass. Instead, they found a house burnt to the ground, and no one who could tell them what had happened. Afterward, they made their way to where Alothia had grown up, only to find a similar situation. In their mutual grief they comforted each other, and then parted ways. Alothia then traveled to the three city states.
| + | Not even the members of Corvus Cinis had concrete knowledge of Lily's whereabouts prior and during the tragic event. It is presumed that she is dead, as many lost their lives in the battles that preceded it. |
| − | | |
| − | First, Alothia traveled to Gridania, searching for word of her parents and sister. There, she signed back up with the Twin Adders, and checked in with the Stillglade Fane. While there, she helped for a few weeks with healing the sick. She also learned about the skip, and that five years had passed since the battle of Cartineau Flats. She was dumbstruck and did not leave her in room for several days. Finally, she decided to head to Ul'Dah to check on her properties.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When she traveled there, the first thing she did was go to the Corvus Cinis headquarters, but found the building silent. She asked local merchants if they knew who currently owned the place, but none of them could tell her anything about the man who seemed to be living there. She frequented the Mineral Concern and the merchant stalls trying to catch wind of anyone she knew, until finally she heard that other people like her had been heading to Limsa Lominsa to the Soliloquy tavern.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the next few weeks, she made her way across Thanalan to La Noseca and eventually Limsa Lominsa. She managed to secure a room at the Mizzenmast and began traveling the city looking for familiar faces. She was pleased to see that Soliloquy was what everyone had said, a gathering ground for people like her. There she was reunited with Xenedra and Kass, and met quite a few other people.

| |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Zenge Eien]]: One of Alothia's closest friends, turned boyfriend. She enjoys Zenge's company, and his broken Eorzean speech patterns. She sees him as a kindred spirit as someone who followed the wrong path in the past and who is constantly trying to better himself and atone for what he did. She finds him a refreshing change from Oskar, as he is more of a partner than a controller, and is far more open with his thoughts and feelings. She still feels bad about what she did to Zenge regarding his Garlean heritage, and this drives some of her interactions with him. Shortly after Heavensturn, Zenge accompanied a group of scouts with the Twin Adder to run reconaissance on the Garlean forces. He was ever more absent from her side, until eventually he broke off all contact with her completely due to threats from the Garlean Army. Alothia has not seen Zenge since a moon before the Calamity.

| | | | |
| − | *[[Fearless Wynn]]: Alothia trusts Fearless completely, and even secretly admires that he stands up for her, even when she doesn't show it. She will often exact punishment on Fearless for his dealings, but never really means any of it to harm Fearless or make him mad. Fearless left for home during the long break for Heavensturn and returned to the company shortly after. They spent some time together before The Calamity, and have since reunited again. | + | *[[Zenge Eien]]: A member of Corvus Cinis. It was Zenge that personally recruited Lily, after her informal introduction to the group as a whole, and he shares some of the beliefs and convictions she has. On their last encounter, Lily had discovered he was now in a relationship with Alothia. She has not seen him for many years now. |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Relani saion]]: Alothia thinks Relani, while strong, is naive and an idiot, after she left Zenge for stupid reasons. | + | *[[Fearless Wynn]]: One of the many Roegadyn employed within Corvus Cinis. Fearless left for home during the long break for Heavensturn and returned to the company shortly after. When time allowed, Lily and Fearless spent time together, even formed a close relationship after events concerning Dyne Evans subsided. It is uncertain what Lily truly feels for him, and the time apart may have put a wedge between them, but she still trusts him implicitly. |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Oskar Helvig]]: Alothia's ex-boyfriend. She was deeply in love with him once, and still doesn't quite understand what went wrong between them. She is torn with her feelings because she would like to be friends, but doesn't feel that she can be at this time. Still has some feelings of resentment over the breakup. She does not need to hide her relationship with Zenge, as Oskar moved on as well. They still remained cordial up until his untimely disappearance from the usual haunts. Alothia believes that Oskar returned to the Caves of his family, perhaps never to return to the surface again. | + | *[[Alothia Starkwood]]: Company head of [[Corvus Cinis]]. Lily has the utmost respect for Alothia, knowing the trials one must go through to maintain an organization, even to lead people. Alothia is one of the few people Lily can have a conversation with and not feel awkward around. Unofficially, Lily is usually the one who will keep Alothia from letting her emotions get the best of her in certain situations that require a clear head, yet careful not to overstep her bounds. |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Lily Dawnsworn]]: Another employee of [[Corvus Cinis]]. Alothia respects Lily deeply, often wishing that she had as much skill and training with weapons as she does. Lily left after Heavensturn, and returned briefly around the time of Little Ladies Day, but has since disappeared again.
| |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Kassandra Dawn]]: Secretary for [[Corvus Cinis]]. Alothia sees Kass as a good friend, someone she could tell most anything to without fear of it getting out. She knows that Kass is a little innocent and naive, and so she tries to make her flustered at every turn. When Kass dated Kaliden, and Kal left for moons without a word, Aly consoled her friend in her grief, believing that Kal was dead. Unfortunately, Kal was not dead at all, but instead returned one sun, showing up at the Mineral Concern after some drinking. Aly stood up for Kass when she couldn't herself, and almost tore Kal's head off. Since then, they do not discuss the man. Kass began dating [[Endricane Feltaro]] and their relationship became quickly serious. Kass got with child from him, but has not been seen by Alothia since a moon before the Calamity. Alothia is not sure of Kass' whereabouts. | + | *[[Kassandra Dawn]]: Secretary for [[Corvus Cinis]]. Lily sees Kass as a good friend, someone to confide in when insecurities arise, sometimes while Lily dabbles in metallurgy. The last time she has spoken to Kass was on the eve of her first and only journal entry. |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Deirdre Ta'ea]]: Alothia knows Deirdre through dealings with the Guard. She respects Deirdre's skills, and generally finds her to be a fine companion, however she grew wary of Deirdre , after Deirdre attempted to stab Fearless. After Aly and Oskar ended their relationship, Deirdre began dating Oskar, during which time Aly had little to no contact with her. More recently, however, Deirdre has requested the help of Aly and Corvus with saving Shurin, her lover, and Falke, her child's, lives. How Aly is going to do such a thing she is unsure, but Deirdre has shown herself to be a friend, so Aly will do whatever in she can to aide the woman and her family. Alothia began trying to figure out what to do, but suddenly Deirdre and her family disappeared, leaving Aly to wonder if she was taken and harmed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Tessa Jalloh]]: Tessa is an eccentric Miqo'te who came to Ul'Dah from one of the tribe islands. Tessa is still learning the norms of living in society, which Aly finds endearing. Tessa often wonders her place in the company, and Aly always finds something to tell her, even if she is unsure of Tessa's role herself. Tessa is a brave fighter, a great friend, and a great source of amusement. Alothia thinks of Tessa as a sister.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Endricane Feltaro]]: Endricane is [[Kassandra Dawn]]'s lover, and father of her child. Aly has a soft spot for Endri, but would like him better if he didn't always monopolize Kass' time.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Tanum Ashurna]]: Tanum is a drunkard, has little tact, and is a heck of a fun guy to go drinking with. Aly likes his ideas for making money on the side, and has joined his latest money making venture...moonshining.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Burgenheim Rousa]]: Burgen is Aly's good friend. She loves his silent ways, and his love of books.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Leanna Milose]]: Leanna is one of the lalas that Aly has developed an attachment to. Leanna is a fierce fighter, and Aly is happy to have her as part of the Corvus team.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Xenedra Ambreaus]]: The owner of Soliloquy. Alothia has known her since before the Calamity, and although they are not close, close, she does feel kinship with the woman, and enjoys her company.
| |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Abaigeal Causland]]: The sprightly bartenderess of Soliloquy. Alothia enjoys talking with her, and could see her becoming a close friend, if she could ever catch the woman when she is not at work. | + | *[[Burgenheim Rousa]]: A Roegadyn that defines the "Silent" personality archetype. Burgenheim rarely speaks, but when he does, a fountain of poetry and wisdom forms in its place. The two of them often are considered the level headed members of Corvus Cinis, seeing as how their upbringing and experiences allow them to look at things objectively. |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Paradyme Capellago]]: A readheaded hyur she met one evening at the Mineral Concern. After a night of drinking and drinking games, Alothia ended up making out with the fellow, which she quite enjoyed. Since then, they've gone out on a couple of dates, spent some time chatting and other things, and are now dating seriously. The two of them together could seriously give people toothaches because of how sweet they are. They were both being watched by Para's brother and torturer, Joshua Nightcross. Alothia managed to overtake the man, killing him, and freeing Para from the man's tyranny. A few suns after the incident, he surprised her by proposing. They are currently engaged.
| + | [More to be added as the story progresses.] |
| | | | |
| − | *[[Vash Ashford]]: A miqo'te male that Alothia has met a couple of times before. She asked for his help in the rescue of Para, and laughed in his face when his boss manhandled him. She would like to get to know him better, as he seems to be an enthusiastic young man...Perhaps she could fix up her sister with him.

| − | *[[Rhu'to Brom]]: A surly miqo'te who appears to be in the same business as Corvus. Alothia sees him as a challenge, either to match wits or to melt his icy heart. Either way, he's fun to tease.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Kiyone Bloodrose]]: The woman who helped save Lainseworth's life during the Joshua incident. Alothia finds the woman amusing, due to her flighty speech patterns and behavior.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Inja Dehqon]]: A woman that Alothia has met on several occasions. She feels sorry for Inja because her things had been stolen, and Alothia offers her gil to cover the loss of her wheel, hoping that it will help Inja get back on her feet.

History
Before The Calamity
~
"We are but simple folk, some of us farmers, some of us smiths, some of us husbands, some of us wives. Some of us have children, some of us have none but ourselves. Yet there is something that unites us all. We are all from Ala Mhigo, and we have all made a solemn vow to fight the Garlean Empire until we have regained control of the home that was torn from our grasp...the home we lost fifteen summers gone." ---Thoughts Of An Ala Mhigan.
~
When the great tragedy that befell Ala Mhigo occurred at the hands of Garlemald, Lily was but a little girl, born into the nobility, and from an early age it was intended for her to take up the sword, to serve the people and in turn earning their respect as it was the duty. Ripped from her homeland and her parents, the fates of which she has never been able to ascertain, Lily had taken a nomadic life, migrating from settlement to settlement, until the journey finally brought her to Eorzea. There, Lily would mature, content to ignore and be ignored, as she aspired to be a champion for the people, in the hopes one day she would return to her homeland and drive the Garleans out.
Of course even the best laid plans often go awry; before her dream could be realized, she had to sharpen her combat skills, acquire funding, and social standing. This would lead her to the city of Ul'Dah, where she would begin these trials of body and spirit. There she would meet Dyne Evans, who would show her how to get around, the common places of interest, and companies of employment. Through Dyne, Lily eventually found Corvus Cinis, and though it was slow at first, she came to find a family within their organization, the likes of which she had not felt for many years.
It need not be said that Lily had grown close to Dyne, though the happiness that followed would not last, as he would meet his death, triggering a series of events to find his killer. Even so, Lily found trusting to others completely to be difficult, yet it did not hinder her day-to-day duties in Corvus Cinis. And that is how it would be, until the sorrow became memory, and she found comfort in her friends and "family" once more. Lily has been diligently performing the tasks assigned to her by Corvus Cinis, between journeys of training and self-awareness, ever since, right until the day of the Calamity.
Post Calamity
Not even the members of Corvus Cinis had concrete knowledge of Lily's whereabouts prior and during the tragic event. It is presumed that she is dead, as many lost their lives in the battles that preceded it.
[To be updated at launch and as the story progresses.]
Additional Info
Relationships
- Zenge Eien: A member of Corvus Cinis. It was Zenge that personally recruited Lily, after her informal introduction to the group as a whole, and he shares some of the beliefs and convictions she has. On their last encounter, Lily had discovered he was now in a relationship with Alothia. She has not seen him for many years now.
- Fearless Wynn: One of the many Roegadyn employed within Corvus Cinis. Fearless left for home during the long break for Heavensturn and returned to the company shortly after. When time allowed, Lily and Fearless spent time together, even formed a close relationship after events concerning Dyne Evans subsided. It is uncertain what Lily truly feels for him, and the time apart may have put a wedge between them, but she still trusts him implicitly.
- Alothia Starkwood: Company head of Corvus Cinis. Lily has the utmost respect for Alothia, knowing the trials one must go through to maintain an organization, even to lead people. Alothia is one of the few people Lily can have a conversation with and not feel awkward around. Unofficially, Lily is usually the one who will keep Alothia from letting her emotions get the best of her in certain situations that require a clear head, yet careful not to overstep her bounds.
- Kassandra Dawn: Secretary for Corvus Cinis. Lily sees Kass as a good friend, someone to confide in when insecurities arise, sometimes while Lily dabbles in metallurgy. The last time she has spoken to Kass was on the eve of her first and only journal entry.
- Burgenheim Rousa: A Roegadyn that defines the "Silent" personality archetype. Burgenheim rarely speaks, but when he does, a fountain of poetry and wisdom forms in its place. The two of them often are considered the level headed members of Corvus Cinis, seeing as how their upbringing and experiences allow them to look at things objectively.
