Appearance & Personality

"Someone has to be a light in the world. Otherwise it's all darkness, and even the shadows die."

Short (4'11"), thin, and fairly plain, Rinh's appearance blends easily into a crowd. While she does cherish her face paint, and her scars aren't exactly hidden under make-up, her features just aren't really remarkable. Her dress is also simple and unobtrusive, though typically she's covered in something pink, her favorite color. The hue might contrast with her dark blue fur and well-kept hair, but she's never been one to care.

Rinh's upbringing was as the youngest of eight, and on top of that, the youngest of triplets. Her bookish nature was her rebellion against her mother, who wanted a very stereotypical life for her. Rinh instead devoted herself to becoming as smart and knowledgeable as she could, only paying her mother's wishes lip service until she struck out on her own.

Now out in the world on her own, Rinh has taken her desire to do good to others, mixed with her talents with magic and a little bit of sword-swinging, and is almost impossible to hold down. Her positive personality has a way of not grating on people, since she does know when to tone it down and be serious. She has, however, no problem using peoples' assumption that her bubbly personality means she's a fool to her advantage. She is far from being so, instead being blindingly intelligent and perceptive.

Rinh is outgoing and emotive for a Keeper, a trait she was often chastised for as a child. She is also particularly innocent, and while not actually sheltered, she can seem to be naive in some circumstances. She is bold in action, but can be fairly timid around strangers, or at least those whom she has never encountered before at all.

Basic Info

Short, wiry, and witty, Rinh fancies herself to be an adventurer, if only to get out of inheriting the family fishing business. Rinh is the youngest of eight, and of two of those eight by four minutes.

Likes ■ Boats, sailing, anything to do with them. ■ Learning anything she can get her hands on. ■ Astronomy, especially if she can get time at the telescope in Coerthas, but stargazing is just fine.

Dislikes ■ Overtly seducing Rinh is the easiest way to get under her skin. ■ Denying her something is the best way to make sure she tries even harder to get it. ■ She hates malicious people, especially malice upon those unable to prevent it.

Quirks ■ Rinh has an extremely low tolerance for spicy food, which provides amusing responses. ■ Despite growing up on it, Rinh is tired of Limsan dishes. ■ Rinh can be brutally honest, and usually is, but she does try to temper her honesty with compassion.

Hobbies/Talents ■ Swordplay ■ Reading ■ Teaching ■ Tenacity and kindness

Relationships

Family

Senah'a Amariyo: - Rinh's father. A solitary Keeper, his monogamous habits made him shunned by his family early on in life. Even in Lominsa, where he lived and was (and still is) an independent fisherman, he had a hard time finding himself a permanent mate until he ran into Rinh's mother while on a rare trip to Gridania. Rinh still maintains a close relationship with her father, visiting him when she is in the city, but does so only if she knows her mother won't be involved in the meeting.

Pheli Amariyo: - Rinh's mother. Despite tolerating Senah'a's monogamy, she maintains a mostly traditional view of how a Keeper family should be. That said, her tolerance for it was her ticket out, her tribe wanting little to do with a female who only wanted one mate. She has amicable relationships with all her daughters except Rinh, whom she accosts every opportunity about procreating.

Pheli'a: - Rinh's brother, the oldest child of the family. Pheli'a shares his father's love for fishing, but does not share his tendency towards monogamy. Rinh has a distant relationship with her brother, though mostly from cultural and geographical reasons rather than any actual emnity.

Thya, Yhah, Yabi, Rubh, Lhei: - Rinh's five older sister sisters, in order of decreasing age, all of whom tended not to associate with the three youngest very much, and continue not to to date. All five are mothers. None of them remain in touch with Rinh, though when they do meet up, the conversations are little different than between Rinh and her mother.

Rhela, Rhaq: - The two youngest sisters that Rinh is triplets with. Of the two, only Rhela ever showed Rinh much favor. Rinh still writes Rhela, though their communications are infrequent, at best. Rhaq has struck out on her own, already a mother of two, all but severing ties with the family.

Enemies

Rinh violently opposes the Garlean empire on an ethical basis, though she judges its individuals as individuals. This mindset applies towards other mostly-hostile groups as well, including beastmen. She will often butt heads with those who seek to enforce law for the sake of law, especially if it is unjust law, in her view.

Player Character Standing

♥ Agápe    ♥ Éros    ♥ Phillia    ● Good Standing    ● Neutral Standing    ● Poor Standing

♥ Mauh'a Relehna - Rinh's self-appointed mentor, Mauh'a is the lead healer of the Kindred, Rinh's first Free Company. The Keeper made an instant and caring impression on Rinh, and she views him as an informal teacher of the healing arts, even if they only rarely discuss such matters.

♥ Z'sisha Tyata - Sisha and Rinh became fast friends after running into each other in Coerthas, where Rinh happened to be walking between camps after a slot on the telescope. They bonded over Sisha's spontaneous adoration of a karakul, and since then, Rinh has felt the urge to give the Seeker nothing but kindness. Rinh considers Sisha the closest thing she has to a sister,

● Sashana Star - Rinh and Star became fast friends after a chat on the roof of the chocobo stable, and though Rinh does show deep concern for her, she doesn't have the same level of attachment to her that she shares with Sisha.

● Bexy Amalaryssia - Rinh considers Bexy a trusted friend, but not quite a confidante. She's answered some difficult questions for Rinh, and though Rinh may have moments where she sees Bexy as a kind of mother figure, it's not lasting.

● Ronin'ra Jinehga - While initially Rinh trusted Ronin thanks to a blackout-drunk night that didn't turn into a nightmare for her, she has learned that Ronin is not simply misunderstood - he is the kind of malicious Rinh cannot and will not tolerate.

♥ Wolfskull Nortyrdaeg - Wolf's initial approach to Rinh was an offer for armed escort. When that didn't work out, she brought Rinh to the restaurant at the airship landing, where she got to see Rinh's first reaction to spicy food, as well as her first encounter with brain freeze, both of which were highly amusing. Despite Rinh having nothing more than a friendly interest in her, the Roegadyn nonetheless remains a good friend, and is now learning to read under Rinh's tutelage. Slowly.
