History

Abandoned in Ishgard at a tender age by persons unknown, the Miqo'te was given the name "Nora" (a diminutive of an Elezen name meaning "foreigner" or "other") by the residents of the Brume. Nora was never formally adopted, instead kept alive by a loose collective of compassionate individuals until she was old enough to fend for herself. Before reaching her twentieth summer, she left the city proper for Tailfeather, where she worked for two years as a Chocobo wrangler before moving on to Idyllshire. She has a transient lifestyle, working odd jobs as a Chocobo trainer and "acquisitions specialist".

Of mixed lineage, she does not know which tribe she belongs to, and - though she has an interest in her origins - presently does not observe any tribal customs. She enjoys reading about astrology and stargazing, and has recently taken an interest in magitek.

Personality

Nora is independent and possesses admirable grit. She believes in working hard and playing harder. Although she is slow to trust, she is eager to have a drink with just about anyone, and loathe to turn down an opportunity for adventure. She is often outspoken, opinionated, and even a little combative, but many of the same traits that make her a struggle to befriend also make her a valuable ally.

Affiliations

  • Former Employee of Skysteel Manufactory
  • Friend of the Goblins of Idyllshire
  • Hobbyist Chocobo Breeder, Trainer, and Jockey (Manderville Gold Saucer)

Notes & References

You may reach me in game (Nora Gatsby - Mateus), or contact Manaheart#8882 on Discord for plotting and RP. My availability fluctuates, but I do my best to be a flexible RP partner. I am interested in plot and character development, but RP partners do not necessarily need to be long-term, or deeply involved with Nora or her story.

Nora is my first Final Fantasy XIV OC. I have done my best to keep her grounded in lore. Because she was abandoned before she was verbal, her birth name and date are unknown; the name "Nora Gatsby" is an assumed one. Although she does not know the circumstances behind her abandonment, she suspects that she had an illicit sire (either a Keeper or a Tia). I intend to reveal her parentage further into her character development.
