[edit] Details Personality History Relationships Gallery OOC Notes GENERAL INFORMATION "Though I sympathize with this dandiprat, firmly entrenched betwixt crime and poverty, I am nevertheless helpless, yet to continue admonishing her for the laws she breaks. Her chicanery is ever the decision she seems determined to make, and as such her lot will end in tragedy." ~ Guard Sergeant Tilmund Strongfist "Had she the physical strength to swing the sword, or the focus to cast her magics consistently, a job would have been proffered. Alas, she can do neither. Behind those sapphire eyes the gears turn forever forward, but none are privy to her thoughts." ~ Momoru Moru, Adventurer. "The quality of your goods are fine, flaws imperceptible when examined by less than master smiths. If not for the brand placed upon, I would have assumed them stolen. Though your body remains frail and fragile, ever does your imagination and crafting skill shine brilliantly. 'Tis clear supplying to the underbelly pains you, yet I am not of mind to release your debt, as your ingenuity is too valuable a commodity." ~ P.X., Black Market Supplier APPEARANCE Labeled "diminutive" and "slight" by strangers, in truth she is underfed, scrawny and physically weak. Malnutrition in her younger years left her a head shorter and more fragile than many other Miqo'te. Oft confused for a Seeker of the Sun at a distance due to her fair complexion and light-toned, wild and short hair, it is only upon closer inspection can one see her deep teal irises and round pupils, if they can overlook the dirt and grime layered upon her skin. Her clothes are tattered, old and patched, marking her as being firmly in the claws of deep poverty. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ Wears absolute garbage clothing for the time being. Loves deep red clothing when she can get it. ■ Her hair is short and feral out of necessity. ■ Physically fragile and scrawny PERSONALITY Shaped by stories of eld, of legends and departed heroes in a bygone world and creatures fantastic, Teora dreamt of following the footsteps of an adventurer and creating her own tale. Yet, tales of the wondrous and the intriguing are not granted to all to who ask, no matter the desire. Ever slighted by the lack of her physical mastery and scarcity of focus, Teora bears the burden of her perceived failures; and though others would label her an accomplished healer, she has mind to disagree and mention, instead, that she is an "excellent crafter" and "inventor". Over time, she has become wont to fall into the depths of her machinations, and new acquaintances oft remark on her proclivity to gravitate towards the technical in conversation. Once, she harbored ambition to supply the adventurers and heroes of Eorzea with superior weapons and goods to compensate for her inability to participate, yet the fangs of poverty have ensnarled her betwixt its jaws. Teora's time is now oft spent crafting illicit goods for Ul'dah's dark underbelly, causing her no small amount of resentment and self-loathing. Engaged regularly with her own thoughts and oblivious to the outside world, loud noises easily startle her and lead to swift frustration. Described at times as 'inattentive' and 'neglectful' by outsiders, she can, at times, be an acquired taste -- though this stems not from lack of interest or the pursuit of hostility towards others, but merely a lack of ability and awkwardness towards socialization. Not always apparent, she is abhorrent of being lonesome, yet she can frequently be found only in her own company merely due to her sheepishness; and at other times she may be found speaking directly to her creations. Still, she finds other ways to show affection and appreciation, unusual they may be. In a twist of fate, she yearns to have recognition yet despises being the center of attention; a destructive combination that makes her malleable, easily misled and prone to manipulation. Counted among her greatest values are freedom and independence for herself and those around her. L I K E S ■ Creating. Thoroughly enjoys crafting and creating items for others to use. It brings her great pride. ■ Stories and culture. Loves fantastical stories and legend, especially ones tied to historical events. D I S L I K E S ■ Physical Engagements: Shies away from physical violence, extremely inefficient in spontaneous, unprepared combat. ■ Loud Noises:Easily startled and scared by loud noises. Often, she is thinking deeply and not paying attention to the world around her. ■ Teora:Detests her full name and prefers Teo. Becomes irate when someone mentions Teora. H O B B I E S ■ Tinkering ■ Learning. Absolutely adores reading, studying and learning. History "From that canyon he plucked me as a babe, and like a sire he became onto me. Knowledge and stories he bequeathed to me, in that I learned to be resourceful, intelligent in my applications; and ways of healing magic became known to me. Truly, a better education could not be afforded. In those days we had companions with whom to sit by the flames after the passing of the sun and enjoy company; but their names and faces have been obscured from thought. My adopted sire, too, escapes my memory. When I attempt to recollect his face, I see naught but brightness and shadows. That day, those many years ago, I lost all, like so many others. Yet though their identity fades from me, the lessons imparted have never strayed from my mind. In this, I am as I began: with wraiths stalking my every footstep in the darkness." - Teo on her past RELATIONSHIP STATUS LEGEND ♥ Family – ♥ Involved – ♥ Romantic – ♥ Platonic – ♥ Physical – ♦ Friend – ★ Acquaintance – $ Business – ✝ Deceased – ✔ Positive – ✖ Negative – ● Neutral – � Unsure FAMILY Person Name, relationship.

Artwork Screenshots ಌ OOC NOTES ಌ OOC INFORMATION Player Note Hello! I am a fairly experienced roleplayer and I'm able to adapt to any type of situation. I consider myself a "mirror" roleplayer; that is, I copy the style of person I'm playing with. Therefore, I'm very flexible in resolutions, length of posts and types of roleplay. However, I am sometimes shy and I am often slow in responses so please be patient. This is my first character in FFXIV so I'm not certain of the lore, but I do learn quickly! Personal RP Limits This section is where I tell you what I will and will not do! Keep in mind though, because I am flexible these are more guidelines than actual rules. I tend to follow the RP where it goes. ■ I will play basically anything. It has to make sense though! I roll with the punches and will do a lot of off-the-wall things at random if that's what we're all doing, but it has to be within the narrative. If someone randomly comes up and stabs my character without warning, I'll go along with it; but if said person is doing it without being serious or having intent to follow through on RP, I may choose to ignore it depending on the circumstances, though I hate doing that! I absolutely love spontaneity! ■ I won't play very little. I'll let people know if it's too far for me. Usually, I draw the line at permanent maiming and mutilation unless it's pre-discussed. In fact, character death and permanent maiming/scarring are the only things I would like discussed beforehand! Everything else is fine with me. My stance on ERP is 'not frivolously' and only within a narrative; even then I rarely participate and may opt for fade-to-black, but again, everything depends on the story. Disclaimer Little Tidbits. ■ I am new to FFXIV but not to roleplay! Please be patient with me. I can be shy, and, again, may take a while to respond to posts. If you want to get in touch to set up some sort of family/friend/enemy/whatever relationship, please let me know! CHARACTER TIDBITS Potential Plot Hooks Your character may know (or know of) Teo if: ■ They spend copious amounts of time in Ul'dah or Limsa Lominsa. If Ul'dah, she lives on the streets in the alley of Pearl Lane. If Limsa Lominsa, she spent a year on the streets there near the Fisher's wharf. ■ If you frequent the underground markets, you may have run into some of her creations. She peddles black-market crystals, weapons, explosives, etc., which are marked with her branding of a fang mark. She has gained slight notoriety (albeit begrudgingly) for her illegal wares. ■ If you are a black-market or grey-market seller, vendor, or broker in Ul'dah, you've probably had dealings with her, if you deal with the street-level. It's likely she may owe you a lot of money, or has sold you products. ■ If you are an investigator, law-bringer or other, you may know Teo and her illicit affairs. Character Lore Adherence I adhere pretty strictly to the lore of FFXIV. I don't know it all that well, but I'll rarely break the lore without a reason intentionally. This just means I won't do things like jedi or vampire stuff or something unless it has roots in lore. ■ No changes required.
