<tr>: Reina Dancer is a somewhat small but healthy looking young woman in her midtwenties. She is intelligent, keen, inquisitive and unrelenting, and has a habit of finding trouble just for the thrill of it. Her hair is currently long and blonde, though the color and style are known to change at her whim. Recently, she's taken to wearing an intricate and well-made suit of light armor when attending events such as the Grindstone, or when expecting not to be entirely safe. She's hard to pin down, hard to understand, and often more than a little unpleasant. In fact, she sometimes seems like she has not human feelings at all….

==Appearance==
+
===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
Reina is a slender, fit woman of average height and build. She has striking blue eyes and beautiful hair, but by the sum of her parts she's otherwise not incredible in any way. She has a scar across the bridge of her nose that pulls all attention from her features, as well as several scars of various types along the curves of her form. All of these, however, are kept carefully hidden beneath her clothing. One especially--which is the most meticulously covered of all--is a rough, ugly scar that spans a good deal of her right shoulder and upper arm. It's impossible to tell what might have made it.
+
: Reina stands at five feet and six inches, with a slender, athletic body and a subtle control to her movements. Her eyes are a light grey-blue and her hair is a natural, light blond. There's a bright blue tattoo on her right cheek, just under her eye, and a small scar crosses the bridge of her nose. As for clothing, she generally dresses modestly and comfortably. Personally, Rei can be rather difficult to understand. She'll adopt a different manner depending on who she's talking to, right down to the body language and the accent she uses, and at this point it's not entirely voluntary. The girl struggles with PTSD, ASPD, and night terrors, and she tends to keep people at a distance. Her sociopathic tendencies include an ability to separate herself from subliminal social pressure and the ability to lie without any tells. She also lack affect and empathy in most situations. Still, while she's loyal to almost no one but herself, once a person has gained her love they can't easily lose it.
  
The hyur manages to have near complete control over her mannerisms, tone of voice, accent, and expression at any given time. She may seem to one person a snivelling child of a woman while the next person may watch her fill up a room with her confidence--it all depends on her scheme at the time. This ability could easily be called sociopathic in nature--who knows? She may just be a good actress.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===
 +
: This section will contain bits and pieces of Rei's history, but not everything. If you want to learn, you should RP with her!
 +
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====
 +
: <Currently unavailable>
 +
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====
 +
: Rei spent most of her older adolescence sailing on a ship with pirates. Supposedly, she was a part of the crew and taught to use and build guns, to sail, to move nimbly over unsteady ship, masts, and the like, and more. It is where she got her tattoo from, but when asked she does not often divulge much information. The ship was known to take and trade slaves, as well as raid poorer ports and seaside towns, and other ships--including maelstrom and allied privateers.
  
As for clothing, Reina tends to walk around in inexpensive fabrics and patterns. She always wears something with a large hidden pocket somewhere, and generally feels no need to apologize for her shabby looks. On rare occasions she can be seem wearing something more expensive--a set of materia enhanced armor or a nice dress. But this is very rare, either because she doesn't want to mess up her hard-won prizes, or because she doesn't like being forced to stand out.
+
: Unfortunately, she does not remember her life before living on the ship.
 +
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====
 +
: About three years ago, a new street rat appeared among the droves in Ul'dah. Reina Dancer seemed well-suited to making her own way with her charms, wit, and extremely deft hands--that is, she liked to con and steal. She spent a good year and a half living with the refugees or in back alleys, cutting purses when she needed quick money, going outside the city gates and bow-hunting when she couldn't do that. It was oddly easy, most nights, to get a tipsy Quicksand patron to buy her a meal for the intangible promise of future meetings.
  
==History==
+
: About two years ago she started actually making friends. She stole from the wrong man and ended up with her first boyfriend--and warm bed to sleep in. She befriended an outlaw who ended up bringing her into his tribe for a short time--although she never felt truly safe there. She began to explore the many skills she'd picked up, expand them, hone them, and in some cases figure out where she got them. She left Ul'dah, joined a ship's crew in Limsa for a couple months, then left and began to drift. She went off the map for almost a year. When she returned she was living in Ishgard but still wandering all over the place, making regular appearances at the Grindstone, and sporting some extremely well made armor and a nice new bow. Still, something has been off since.
*The following is OOC knowledge only. Any hint of IC knowledge of this will be ignored and potentially cause me to be wrathful.*
 
  
Reina was born Andrea Thorne, fifth child and first daughter of a noble family in Gridania. She was raised well, highly educated, taught to play several instruments, dance, philosophy, and theories on arcanima. By the time she was ten her parents were dead and the youngest of her eldest brothers--seven years her senior--had taken over the role of raising her. Reina bullied him into learning to use a bow and a gun, although her interest in scholarly studies and her passion for music remained.

At age fifteen she was taken to visit La Noscea for her birthday, but on the journey back to the Shroud their ship was attacked my pirates and she was captured in the raid. Andrea lost all her memories at that point.

:<font style="color:#B2B2B2;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[S'imba Tia]] : A young blond Seeper of the Smoon, S'imba managed to make Reina hate her before he won his way to her heart. She found him amusing for a time, but as misadventures abound ties strengthen. For a short time they call each other their mate, but Reina left him alone for a long time and they grew apart. Now, Reina barely even calls him friend--but she remains as fiercely loyal to him as ever.
  
Given the name Reina Dancer by her captors, the young woman was convinced that she was a part of the crew and taken as the captain's 'pet'. For the next almost eight years she was abused and conditioned to be obediant and one of the crew. Only her naturally tenacious and defiant persona kept her independent and allowed her to make a rather violent escape about a year ago.

Basile beat her, but offered her a drink which she accepted. After several adventures ranging from tavern dates to the slaying of blood mages they have started up a romance. It scares Reina, and she's just waiting for the moment the man makes her snap and shoot him….  
  
Now she is known to travel among any of the three city-states and the surrounding wilds. She makes her meager way as a masterful bluff, con, and pick-pocket. Recently, she's branches out and made a few connections and allies. But the name she's making for herself seems to be causing as much problem as it is ease.
+
:<font style="color:#B2B2B2;" size="3">●</font> [[Armont De'bayle]] A long time ago, Armont mistook Reina for someone else in the cold snows of Coerthas, and after being swiftly corrected he simply showered her with compliments. Reina gave him the impression that she was generous and good-hearted when she bought him a warm meal and some wine, when in reality he was amusing and she was bored. She did not see him again for close to two years, surprised to find he was now the head of the De'bayle household and the Lord of her new friend, Basile Feurieux.
  
==Personality==
+
:<font style="color:#B2B2B2;" size="3">●</font> [[Leah Carsen]] : Now known as Leah Leyweaver, Reina met Leah when she stole from her many months ago. Leah started at Reina's friend, but managed to disappoint or otherwise hurt Reina enough that they share something between a friendship and mutual animosity. They rarely speak, now.
Reina is stubborn as all hell, incorrigible, tenacious, playful, mischievous, clever, sly, intelligent, energetic, and friendly. She adores the thrill of defying those with more power than her and enjoys the tickle she gets up her spine when she successfully bluffs or lies to someone. Challenges are opportunities for fun and consequences are far-off and unthought of. Her resourcefulness makes up for her impulsiveness on many occasions, but she in known to get in over her head far too often.
 
  
Physical, emotional, and mental trauma has messed up her head. She acts compulsively and has adopted several ticks, or tells, that a keen eye can catch when she's lying, fearful, or upset. Otherwise Reina has developed an uncanny ability to lie and act which border on the sociopathic, and she uses this skill to get into trouble almost every day.

:<font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Aekira Swyfte]] Reina met Aekira in the Quicksand after he was snooping on one of her conversations, at which point the wrangled him into her company and spent the next short while getting to know him. A few other meetings, and she found him amusing, cute and interesting--but now she hasn't seen him in so long she doesn't know if he's even still alive.
  
Reina is nosy, but generally not obnoxious or unkind as a person. She holds no loyalty to random strangers, but once a connection is formed she will grudgingly give special treatment. Such as no longer stealing from said person. Or helping them out.
+
:<font style="color:#ECCA67;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#B2B2B2;" size="3">●</font> [[X'khai Tia]] Reina originally met X'khai as 'Sig', the outlaw with a penchant for killing and stealing. They had some dangerous fun together, but it wasn't long before she'd pieced together what was happening with him and his 'pride,' the Lynxfang. Despite helping him piece himself back together, Reina ended up feeling badly used by the man, and currently neither likes nor trusts him.
  
There are so many layers and complexities to her actions and motivations due to her PTSD that she often doesn't know why or how she's doing many of the things she does. She is controlled by compulsion and fear and in turn attempts to impose control on her surroundings--largely unsuccessfully. The closer one gets to her real self, however, the less control, confidence, and energy she tends to exhibit.
+
:<font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Rawkin Forgeheart]] Since seeing her wipe out in the Grindstone, Rawkin has made it a point to tease or ridicule Reina every chance he gets. This has made her not only dislike his presence, but 'affectionately' dub him "Asshole." His griefing only made it all the more satisfying when she beat him in the first round of one of the following Grindstone.

Basic Info

: Reina Dancer is a somewhat small but healthy looking young woman in her midtwenties. She is intelligent, keen, inquisitive and unrelenting, and has a habit of finding trouble just for the thrill of it. Her hair is currently long and blonde, though the color and style are known to change at her whim. Recently, she's taken to wearing an intricate and well-made suit of light armor when attending events such as the Grindstone, or when expecting not to be entirely safe. She's hard to pin down, hard to understand, and often more than a little unpleasant. In fact, she sometimes seems like she has not human feelings at all….

Appearance & Personality

Reina stands at five feet and six inches, with a slender, athletic body and a subtle control to her movements. Her eyes are a light grey-blue and her hair is a natural, light blond. There's a bright blue tattoo on her right cheek, just under her eye, and a small scar crosses the bridge of her nose. As for clothing, she generally dresses modestly and comfortably. Personally, Rei can be rather difficult to understand. She'll adopt a different manner depending on who she's talking to, right down to the body language and the accent she uses, and at this point it's not entirely voluntary. The girl struggles with PTSD, ASPD, and night terrors, and she tends to keep people at a distance. Her sociopathic tendencies include an ability to separate herself from subliminal social pressure and the ability to lie without any tells. She also lack affect and empathy in most situations. Still, while she's loyal to almost no one but herself, once a person has gained her love they can't easily lose it.

Biography

This section will contain bits and pieces of Rei's history, but not everything. If you want to learn, you should RP with her!

Childhood

<Currently unavailable>

Teenage

Rei spent most of her older adolescence sailing on a ship with pirates. Supposedly, she was a part of the crew and taught to use and build guns, to sail, to move nimbly over unsteady ship, masts, and the like, and more. It is where she got her tattoo from, but when asked she does not often divulge much information. The ship was known to take and trade slaves, as well as raid poorer ports and seaside towns, and other ships--including maelstrom and allied privateers.
Unfortunately, she does not remember her life before living on the ship.

Present

About three years ago, a new street rat appeared among the droves in Ul'dah. Reina Dancer seemed well-suited to making her own way with her charms, wit, and extremely deft hands--that is, she liked to con and steal. She spent a good year and a half living with the refugees or in back alleys, cutting purses when she needed quick money, going outside the city gates and bow-hunting when she couldn't do that. It was oddly easy, most nights, to get a tipsy Quicksand patron to buy her a meal for the intangible promise of future meetings.
About two years ago she started actually making friends. She stole from the wrong man and ended up with her first boyfriend--and warm bed to sleep in. She befriended an outlaw who ended up bringing her into his tribe for a short time--although she never felt truly safe there. She began to explore the many skills she'd picked up, expand them, hone them, and in some cases figure out where she got them. She left Ul'dah, joined a ship's crew in Limsa for a couple months, then left and began to drift. She went off the map for almost a year. When she returned she was living in Ishgard but still wandering all over the place, making regular appearances at the Grindstone, and sporting some extremely well made armor and a nice new bow. Still, something has been off since.

S'imba Tia : A young blond Seeper of the Smoon, S'imba managed to make Reina hate her before he won his way to her heart. She found him amusing for a time, but as misadventures abound ties strengthen. For a short time they call each other their mate, but Reina left him alone for a long time and they grew apart. Now, Reina barely even calls him friend--but she remains as fiercely loyal to him as ever.
Basile Feurieux : Yet another stranger she met via fighting with him at the Grindstone, Basile was one of the first people Reina truly paused to get to know after returning from whenever she's been. Basile beat her, but offered her a drink which she accepted. After several adventures ranging from tavern dates to the slaying of blood mages they have started up a romance. It scares Reina, and she's just waiting for the moment the man makes her snap and shoot him….
Armont De'bayle A long time ago, Armont mistook Reina for someone else in the cold snows of Coerthas, and after being swiftly corrected he simply showered her with compliments. Reina gave him the impression that she was generous and good-hearted when she bought him a warm meal and some wine, when in reality he was amusing and she was bored. She did not see him again for close to two years, surprised to find he was now the head of the De'bayle household and the Lord of her new friend, Basile Feurieux.
Leah Carsen : Now known as Leah Leyweaver, Reina met Leah when she stole from her many months ago. Leah started at Reina's friend, but managed to disappoint or otherwise hurt Reina enough that they share something between a friendship and mutual animosity. They rarely speak, now.
Aekira Swyfte Reina met Aekira in the Quicksand after he was snooping on one of her conversations, at which point the wrangled him into her company and spent the next short while getting to know him. A few other meetings, and she found him amusing, cute and interesting--but now she hasn't seen him in so long she doesn't know if he's even still alive.
X'khai Tia Reina originally met X'khai as 'Sig', the outlaw with a penchant for killing and stealing. They had some dangerous fun together, but it wasn't long before she'd pieced together what was happening with him and his 'pride,' the Lynxfang. Despite helping him piece himself back together, Reina ended up feeling badly used by the man, and currently neither likes nor trusts him.
Rawkin Forgeheart Since seeing her wipe out in the Grindstone, Rawkin has made it a point to tease or ridicule Reina every chance he gets. This has made her not only dislike his presence, but 'affectionately' dub him "Asshole." His griefing only made it all the more satisfying when she beat him in the first round of one of the following Grindstone.
K'washi Amada Rei's oldest friend and one of her most trusted, Kou has been in her life for years. She's saved his life a few times, and he's saved hers. While he seems to have disappeared for now, Reina knows that should he ever turn up she'll be there for him once again.
