You'll likely see me around a lot! Feel free to say hello! :)</p> |

Revision as of 13:39, 20 November 2015
[edit]
ONUMA AHNTIFI (Pronunciation: Onu-ma Ann-tee-fee), is a miqo'te that lived on the outskirts of Gridania prior to the dreaded Calamity. She was one of a family of three that chose to recreate their lives somewhere in the southern reaches of the Black Shroud. Since that time, she is the only surviving member. Thinking she lost everything, she moved to the harsh desert region of Thanalan to try and start her life anew. When she arrived at Ul'dah, she had little but the clothing on her back, two throwing knives and a few mint currencies of gil on her person.. Six wild cycles later, Onuma is now the lieutenant of one 81st Foreign Levy -- otherwise known as the free company with no name. What began as a group of stragglers and misfits has turned into something formidable and unbroken. There is not a moment where this weathered woman does not express pride over the people she oversees on a daily basis, and though it is evident that they are a diverse lot, with differing levels of morals, honor, and loyalty, it is this very nature which she strongly believes has brought them together. She has made it her duty to stand beside her captain and her comrades, and help manifest the change they want to see.
Onuma, to many would appear to be a disheveled soldier first before anything else. She is almost always wearing her suit of armor when seen on the field, and she is not always clean or orderly, many times appearing disheveled and tired. Having suffered from a particularly traumatizing event, parts of her natural pigmentation have been lost, resulting in the shocks of white coursing through her hair, her scruffy fur, and her leonine tail. Her complexion stands out in contrast from her hair, soft and pale, almost with a bluish tone beneath moonlight, and upon her face she wears faint marks of warpaint. Wrapped around her tail is a sapphire blue ribbon; it stands to reason that it bears something of significance to her.
Blunt. Honest. Tenacious. Onuma is nothing if not steadfast and protective. To this end, Onuma looks upon outsiders with a measure of wariness, and many times can be regarded as ruthless to enemies of her and the people of her free company. Because of this, Onuma's relationship with someone tends to begin through their first impressions. She either likes you or she doesn't, and that is how the way of things are. Her perceptions can change, given time and effort. Her feelings about things are sometimes hard to read, but her emotions boil on the surface often. Her ears and tail often reveal the most about her, when they become animated.
This is a list of the items that Onuma currently is keeping on her 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: 11/18/2015.
Since coming to Eorzea, Onuma has had to learn how to defend herself from predators both from mankind and the wilderness alike. When things started to take a wrong turn during her living in the Black Shroud, Onuma took a rare opportunity and stole a pair of throwing daggers that were left behind at an unoccupied camp used by the Wood Wailers. It wasn't until she fled to Ul'dah following the Calamity that she learned how to wield something greater besides self-teaching herself how to throw knives effectively. Given her time as a student in the Gladiators' Guild, Onuma has since mastered the art of the sword. Yet, she has also learned decently at wielding the lance, and her ability to wield daggers is nothing to sneeze at. Surprisingly, she has become efficient in applying debilitating and devastating toxins -- a handy skill when infiltrating. Something she has rarely had to do.
Here is a list of recent and/or notable fights, roleplay scenes, etc. that Onuma has been a part of. This list is by no means all inclusive, and serves more as a general reference as to what she has been up to.
Though many things have occurred in Onuma's short time on Eorzea, the past two years have been the most eventful. After her departure from the Gladiators' Guild, Onuma went on to be instructed underneath the Sultansworn, learning about the path of the free-paladin. She was gifted the Soul of the Paladin stone once her training was complete, many of her trials which sent her far and wide across Eorzea, yet also included aiding the Immortal Flames and the Brass Blades fend off the Amal'jaa from the trade routes leading into and out of Thanalan. But she had a long way to go to understand what it meant to be one, and what kind of path was carved out for her. It was when at last she was free to do as she wished that she traveled many a place with her companion, soon to become her lover. Taking on the occasional odd job, making deliveries, and focusing building her own skills as a smithy -- all things that eventually landed her and Lotan'to in the middle of a group of people that, at first glance, had no relation to each other. And they truly didn't, not by flesh and blood alone. Yet one thing led to another and, looking back on it, where once they were a group of six now numbers easily sixty and more on the 81st's rosters. Over the course of her time spent with her free company, Onuma's had her ups and downs, the mindset and the heart shaken, and through it all her willpower and strength tested. Haunted by a history that plagued her, Onuma sought out a path to right what the past wronged. She gained much of her experience from the battles and trials she and the men and women of the 81st Foreign Levy have fought to overcome. Victory is, though ever struggling to remain a clear and concise goal that Onuma can set her sights upon, with so much loss encountered in so little a time. Strife and change appear to have no qualms arriving hand-in-hand these passing suns, and Onuma has endured a significant one, within herself. Since then she has relinquished her Soul of the Paladin stone to the one she believes solely capable of carrying on in her name, the captain. Rhesh'ir has once more set his sights on an old foe, and Onuma has chosen to stand beside him in this decision. The question ever lingering in her mind now is, will she live to see their enemy vanquished? Will they be able to carry out their duty, their promise, to protect the others as the world grows ever more dangerous?
These are mostly backstory-related relationships.
Listed here are the non-family characters, both PC and NPC, that Onuma has interacted with enough or in such a way for her to form a real opinion about them. Please don't take personal offense if your character isn't listed here, or how the interaction or relationship is described. It isn't that I dislike your character or our RP. I just tend to only add these as necessary for those who make a real impact on Onuma, and descriptions are purely based upon in character experiences and opinions! Last Update... 11/19/2015 * An asterisks denotes that Onuma doesn't know the individual's true name.
◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely!
◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first!
◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using!
◢ Player Character Rumors - Feel free to add rumors of your own!

Onuma has led a life of adventuring - and in craftsmanship - that's brought her to many places stretched across Eorzea. Though not all of those roads have brought her to good discoveries, she wouldn't be where she is today had she not walked them. Because of this, there are several ways someone would know about her.
