[edit]
Lsael Elswer (Pronunciation: /Leh-Sail Else-Wher/)
How does one spend their "happy ever after?" All throughout her life, while trudging through some of the darkest days in her past. A lonesome Lsael often looked enviously to the sky. Watching the birds flock overhead, the occasional airship flying past, and the stars that shimmered from high above. That sense of freedom in it's purest form, that at the time, felt like nothing more than a distant dream. So when this wanderlust sell-sword found herself with a substantial amount of gil one day. Instead of a sword, she armed herself with wings. Taking the opportunity to a buy herself a brand new manacutter. A manacutter which would eventually grow into her own airship over the years. And not once did the xaela ever look back on her choice. Free to fly it wherever she desires. A self-taught tinkerer, wandering explorer, and skilled pilot. Lsael put aside her sword, her shield, and other pointy business tools to seek a life in the skies.
If "happy ever after" meant flying a lonely yet clear blue sky all by yourself for the rest of your days... would you agree?
If not... For someone like Lsael, who'd disagree otherwise, do you think she'd even care?
Lsael is a young adult Xaela, appearing around her mid-twenties. Standing slightly taller than most women of her race Lsael last checked herself just above 5 fulms 7 ilms, which is noticeably taller than the average female Au Ra. She sports a lithe and well balanced, athletic figure. Her natural fair-skin is accented by her dark purplish scales. Her scales bearing no special traits in comparison to those of her other kin. With the slight exception of being slightly lighted in tone compared to most tribal grown xaela.
She has some notable scars on her body. A large, deep scar on her lower-left side of her waist indicating a very painful flesh wound. A fading, piercing-like scar on her upper right-shoulder visible from the front and back. A large slashing scar, cutting just above her right thigh, just below the waist. And several smaller and fading cuts littering her right arm. Her palms have a feint tint to them, indicating an old burn she received in the past.
Lsael has short black hair with feint red highlights, preferring to keep it to a minimal length. Occasionally her hair will grow out, but poor maintenance only sees it grow so long, most often covering the left side of her face with her bangs. A habit formed when she was still a training gladiator, as little hair maintenance was required under a plate helmet. Lsael also has heterochromatic eyes. Her left eye is what she describes as her natural crimson red. And her right eye, more recently changed, is a bright crystal yellow. Both are still enclosed enclosed with black limbal rings which remains unchanged.
Growing up. Most of her life was spent in long periods devoid of any meaningful social interaction. Combined with her rather docile persona, this has made Lsael a very silent and reticent character. While she's the type that could go for months on end without any sort of conversation. Those who manage catch wind of her would find it difficult to describe her as asocial, brooding or gloomy. Though she seems at first a very reserved character, she is quite adept in socializing and holding a conversation given a meaningful topic. Actually, most people would describe Lsael as rather pragmatic. A realist walking a fine line between general apathy and a quiet curiosity. Rude at most, and blunt at best. Lsael seems to show little care about the worldly ideals and politics unless it directly concerns herself. Her few acquaintances will note that Lsael remains oddly well mannered, though stubborn stubborn in her words, as long as they reciprocate an equal amount of respect for her in turn.
On the topic of respect, she absolutely despises those who think they are above others. Blind racists, pretentious high-born, politicians and radical religious zealots alike. Having grown up with her own set of struggles, Lsael could easily relate to those less fortunate. Even often giving away what little she could afford if the feeling ever occurs to her. But that's not to say she's the most kind-hearted person around. Valuing the strong-willed sensibility which helped her move along in her life. If introduced to a person who has given up in the struggles of life, she would hold that person up to no value whatsoever.
Though it was noted earlier that she is sociable to a fault, the xaela is rather untrusting and wary of everyone she encounters. While Lsael does occasionally enjoy a romp during her breaks in the cities. She'll often come across as reserved or easily irritated, especially to those who approach her for sex in mind before anything else. Opting to giving up only her last name, she prefers to keep her distance from strangers before she's gotten a hold of their true intentions. Should Lsael casually hold a conversation with someone, or even disclose details of herself at all. It would be seen as a small form of trust coming from her. When faced with an unyielding aggressor in an argument. Lsael has learned throughout the years that preemptive aggressiveness works as a proper deterrent. If faced with continuous harassment after being promptly asked to leave her be, for example. Lsael will not hesitate to swing the hilt of her blade or put a bullet in their thigh with no given warning. Whatever action it would take to desist the individual and make a point loud and clear. (While on this note, she's on a low alert criminal list in Gridania for this very reason. Which is why she never frequents the city proper) What little friends Lsael HAS come to trust however, would describe her as much radically different than the other persona's she would sport among strangers. Lsael is much as more talkative, given that they are around to start a conversation. Her tone changes slightly from a formal sense to rather casual dialogue.

Often coming across as crass or politically incorrect, Lsael is noted not to shy from the truth of the conversation, often stating her opinion regardless of other's reaction or consequence. Whether this is charming or rude to her friends is dependent on the thickness of their skins.
Outside of other's influences however, Lsael is still pretty much a lonesome individual. Years of strife and lonely hard work has tempered her will. Something which is readily apparent when the xaela is about to fight. She becomes eerily silent, often expressed with a motionless calm and neutral focus in her eyes. Lsael has lost her fair share of fights and brawls growing up, knowing fully well the consequences that awaits the loser, especially a woman. This silence is a testament to that, and her focus is the reinforced resolve in which she carries herself through those faults. Lsael's only confidence in a fight lies on sheer force of will. Her tenacity in a fight going sour is unbridled and defiant, and the lessons she had been taught over the years drilled into her instinct. She is very much an amazing close-quarters fighter, her martial prowess the sum of her hard-work and blind resolution to better herself. Despite her martial prowess, Lsael is very much considered average or below median when accounted for her magical and arcane skills. While her endurance, tenacity, strength and quick reactions are well accounted for. Her mental fortitude is also not up to par. Those who have readily teamed up with her in the past have noticed she was much more susceptible to certain mental debuffs when caught in them (such as Charms, Confusions, Fears). Though given a familiarity to attach herself to, she seems quite capable when Lsael is able to apply herself. For example, her Red Mage skills are above par in comparison to any other magic/arcane-based class she has picked up.
This is a list of the items that CHARACTER currently is keeping on THEIR person. Feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in the course of RP, such as pickpocketing, a search, etc. Last Updated: DATE.
