Character

Appearance

Sigrid is a remarkably tall, well-muscled woman. In the past she has been, from a distance, mistaken to be Elezen or Roegadyn based on height and stature alone, a mistake she seems reasonably amused by when it happens. She carries herself tall and proud, as befits her heritage and choice of profession. By most measures Sigrid could be described to have a 'rough' sort of attractiveness or appeal. She keeps her long, dully red hair braided and mostly out of her face, of a medium-long length. Her face bears its share of scars, in particular one goes down her left eye, though the organ itself is present and fully functional. On her right cheek rests a blue tattoo that could be taken to be a stylistic interpretation of Rhalgr's symbol. Her eyes are a pleasant green, usually friendly enough. Sigrid is somewhat paler than most Ala Mhigans, though there's a light, healthy tan to her skin more often than not. Her body has a few scars here and there as well, though less than one would expect given her profession and general lack of armor that she seems to favor. The sailor has well-toned, firmly muscled arms, legs, and torso, with a rather sizable bust. She, surprisingly, seems to wear a little bit of cosmetics here and there, having some dark eye shadow on more often than not as well as a dark variety of red lipstick.

As for attire, she can most often be seen in light, simple cloths, dyed a variety of colors, though she seems to prefer the darker variety. Usually, she wears high black boots with an accompanying black skirt, worn with a loose, dark blue shirt with the front mostly open save for a few strands of fiber to keep the piece together, with a dull, brown bra fully visible underneath to maintain her modesty. Sigrid seems to prefer wearing a dark brown sailor's bandanna tied around her head, with a few scrimshaws and other baubles hanging off a little of the side of it. All in all she seems to enjoy light, airy pieces that are easy to move in and keep one cool in the breeze.

That makes her choice of equipment rather surprising. She carries a large, brutal looking greataxe on her back usually, with a few tomahawks stored in her belt. Also looped on her belt is a boarding hook, a vicious looking length of chain about ten feet in length when uncoiled that ends in a spike with prongs leading back, better to grip something and pull it in. She seems to carry the marauder tradition with her if nothing else, though in times of anger or stress if one looks in her eyes, a fire or beast within that's struggling to be unchained is evident. When Sigrid lets loose fully, it's a sight to behold.

Personality

If there's one word that best describes Sigrid, it's genuine. She seems to barely hide anything about her emotions or opinions. If she likes a person, she'll make that clear in her word choice and pleasant demeanor. If she doesn't, she gets rather brusque and rude in short order. In general, she seems 'crude', but with a kind heart under all of that. She generally tries to be amenable and friendly to most on first impressions, and is always fond of good company and humor. Her own humor borders from observatory to a dry sense of humor. That being said, there's clearly some edge to Sigrid, something lying just underneath her skin that is docile most of the time, but can be awoken to terrible potential. She is generally slow to anger, though her state of intoxication does change that, but when she does get angry, she gets viciously angry, especially if in battle. Yet in general, she's a friendly, casual person that doesn't try to make enemies, though she throws good-natured jibes at all people whenever she can.

Relationships

Friends

Laen Ruelfal: Sigrid met the courier during a Valentione's Day ball, and they became friends in short order. Though poor timing has prevented them from becoming more, Sigrid still enjoys a healthy, if occasionally bitter and resentful, friendship with the merchant.

Arala Makeo: More an acquaintance and ally than a true friend, at least for now, Sigrid met this paladin while fighting her in the Grindstone. She took to calling her 'Kitten' out of mildly racist fondness in short order, and does seem to hope for a rematch with her, and more time spent in friendly company.

Enemies

Sigrid has been 'lucky' enough to avoid any notable enemies. For now.

Rumors

Common Rumors

• "Eh, Sigrid? She's a kind enough lass, seems real genuine and honest. Just don't get on her bad side, aye?" - Midlander merchant at Limsa Lominsa
• "She just has that look about her. Highlander. Ala Mhigan. Weird a lass like that would come to Limsa Lominsa, but I suppose they don't all linger at Little Ala Mhigo." - Elezen observer
• "Wicked with that axe, the lass is. She has to be guild-taught." - Marauder

Moderate Rumors

• "See that woman here more days than I don't, I swear. Always seems to be either ordering a drink or restocking her stash." - Baderon, Proprietor of The Drowning Wench
• "Sigrid? Aye, I know th'lass. Word is she sailed pirate when she were younger. Up and disappeared from that life a couple of years after the Calamnity, though. Can't much blame her. Poor pickings, after that, and the work felt like taking candy from a Lalafell with how we were all hurting." - Roegadyn sailor at Limsa Lominsa
• "There's something behind those eyes, I swear. I don't know whether to worry or not when an operation gets sour with Sigrid around. The woman's made for stress, one way or another. Question always is, will she stop and calm down after the enemy is dead, or will she just lose herself to whatever beast drives her?" - Maelstrom Captain
• "Heard how she got that magitek armor of her's? Well, during Operation Archon, she.. Lead ten men into Castrum Marinum, lopped off the heads of thirty Garleans, and rode off in victory with that armor!" - Storm Private (Intoxicated)

Rare Rumors

• "Did y'hear what th'scout said? Swore he heard some'un like th'Lieutenant screamin' bloody rage down in the Mines the other night. Also saw some blood-drenched figure stalk out of them in th'night, but it were too dark t'make it out. But tha'd be insane. No one goes down into those mines alone without good reason or a deathwish..." - Storm Private at Camp Overlook
• "Some nights when I'm closing up shop, I see some red-haired sailor on the pier, just looking out to the sea with moon and stars overhead. Whoever she is, she looks rather lonely. Guess it's a common thing for them sailors. Weeks, months at sea.. Can't be easy." - Fishmonger
