Naja Elo'quie

>>Witch of the Shroud<<

Naja has a lot of dual aspects to her personality. She can be shy, yet social. For instance, Naja's fascinated by people, and often watches them from afar, yet she will also get right into stranger's faces, and attack them with a tirade of endless questions. This Miqo'te is sometimes sultry, and other times child-like. Naja knows how to get what she wants, when she wants it, and will use her charm, body, and other tricks to achieve her goals. Within the same hour, however, she can display an innocence and sense of wonder that could easily rival any youngling's experience of first snow. Naja's duality extends to her emotions, which seem to wane then grow like the moon. She can sometimes hide her feelings with almost insurmountable steadiness and grace. During other occasions however, her mood will explode without warning, and with a cutting jab, that could make anyone feel mortally wounded, by using her words alone. Her experiences throughout life are what shaped her unique personality.

A P P E A R A N C E

Naja's a Miqo'te of average height, with long, dark ash-brown hair that has naturally occurring teal streaks running through it. She has a shapely build, with pale, almost grey skin. Her eyes are a medium turquoise, and are downturn slightly on the outside corners. Her clothing is usually made of leather or soft fabrics in hues of blues, browns, whites and greys. She has a teardrop marking on her forehead as of late.

P A S T

Naja comes from a small clan deep within the Black Shroud. There she lived with her mother, father, and younger brother. She had an affinity for sensing and interacting with aether from a young age, and would read about thaumaturgy from her father's books.

An incident occurred between Naja, her clan, and local Wood Wailers when she was young. It's something that she prefers not to speak of, but will disclose the information to those she's close with. As a result of this traumatic experience, trust does not come easily for her.

Lost and alone in the Shroud after she got separated from her family, she stumbled upon a voidsent Ahriman. Instead of fighting or hurting the young Miqo'te, it befriended her instead, and shielded her through out the night. From then on the odd couple have been closely bonded. She named the voidsent Baldomier. In addition to having Baldomier as a mount and companion, she also has a pet lesser panda named Takku, and a chocobo named Dusty.

After she got separated from her family, Naja lived by foraging in the Black Shroud and stealing crops and food in order to survive. As she reached her teenage years she used her charms to acquire money, and often left both men and women alike with significantly lighter coin purses.

P R E S E N T

Currently, Naja resides in The Mist with her Free Company. There she has a meditation room, and all the comforts of home. As a part of her Free Company, she also waitresses and helps out with special events.

L I K E S

■ Moonlight. She'll often bathe in it, and it never fails to remind her of home.

■ Friendly People. As a shy Miqo'te, she often appreciates people who make the first move in introducing themselves.

■ Freedom. She's a carefree woman that can often be hard to pin down. Naja also enjoys traveling and working by her own schedule.

D I S L I K E S

■ Animal Cruelty. As someone who took care of animals in her family's village, she's especially disturbed by senseless cruelty to animals. She doesn't consider hunting cruel, as she knows it's a matter of survival.

■ Controlling or Bossy People. As a person who values freedom, she can't stand the thought of being under another person's thumb. She'll follow rules and leadership, but never blindly.

■ Scorching Heat. Naja is someone that prefers the cool moonlight of night. She loses stamina and exhausts easily in the heat in places such as the Sagolii desert.

Q U I R K S

■ Talking to Animals. Naja is someone who might seem strange at first as she easily opens herself upto animals, much more so than with people.

■ Skeptical about the Fear Surrounding Voidsents. When she sees a voidsent she doesn't condemn it automatically as something evil. This has a lot to do with her friendship with Baldomier.

■ WIP. Text, text, text, text.
