In General
Xiao Ninako is an eloquent Keeper of the Moon with a fiery spirit and a burning desire for knowledge. Illiterate, tradeless, and motivated by wanderlust, she moves from place to place, driven to discover what Eorzea has to offer.
Entertainment Services
You may hire Xiao for special occasions or recreational purposes! She makes spare coin plying her services as an entertainer - both publicly and privately. Be it dancing, singing, harp-playing, or in hosting a tea ceremony, Xiao's company is a pleasant addition to one's day.
Skills Include:
- Lunar Ritual
- Traditional Dance and Song
- Harmonious Harp Playing
- Tea Ceremonies
Appearance
Savage grace and youthful beauty combined to form this elegant specimen, worthy of the name of her kin. The timbre of the Miqo'te's voice betrayed a spirit of independence, confident, yet smoky in its undertones; coupled with her classy demeanor and smooth charisma, these things made her a bright gem in conversations. There were also many subtle features of the female which lent a hint of natural sensuality to her presence, including her scent: a sumptuous blend of pumpkin buttercream warmed with notes of crisp woodsmoke.
Diminutive in stature with a svelte frame, Xiao's feminine hourglass figure supported ample curves and slender muscle shaped by the physical activities of a dancer. Her movements were graceful and fluid, feline in their carefree lack of haste.
The exotic features of the Miqo'te were present also, unmistakable. Triangular ears which were feathered at the base protruded from her head on a common swivel, attentive to the smallest sounds. Prominent canines rendered even the most well-meaning grin into something almost unnerving, subtly dangerous to those unaccustomed to the sight. Of course, no oversight could be made for her long, slender tail. It ended in a curling plume of fur uncommon for her sort, and its range of motion made the extension a valuable addition to her articulate nature.
Despite a life walking by moonlight away from the sun, her skin was dark as chocolate and smoother still in complexion, lightly freckled atop her more rounded surfaces. That soft tapestry was free of scars, marked only with a few tribal slashes on the frame of her face.
The woman's physiognomy was striking. Expressive eyes of a deep amber flecked with brighter gold gleamed wolf-bright from behind thick, camel-like lashes. The almond-shaped orbs were set above a gentle aquiline nose and luscious, full lips, bringing together the comely charm of her heart-shaped face. What little paint she wore for beauty consisted of colorless lipshine to add gloss to the plush tiers, and sparkling powder of vibrant yellow shades to emphasize her eyes.
The cotton silk of the Keeper's hair was white as moonlight, braided back at the temples and long enough to hug her shoulders in an elegant fan, slightly curled at the ends. Here and there, a flash of blond could be seen where fashionable highlights had been dyed into the strands. It was rarely styled, but on those occasions, Xiao piled it high, letting the tresses flow freely about her nape in classical, elegant fashions. Those parts of her which were adorned with glossy fur were washed in the same pearlescent colors, pure white with a silken sheen.
Fashion
Typically garbed in clothing of Keeper styles, it was no rare thing to see Xiao in the fashions of other races. Her taste leaned toward brighter colors like yellow and orange, but equally common were subdued creams and beige hues. The styles had a tendency to reflect the climate she found herself in. Clearly, she was not shy about her love for clothing and experimenting on the subject.
Personality
This Miqo'te is a gentle creature behind any front of fortitude she might erect, and prone to a genial disposition. Charismatic and bright, she exudes a mysterious charm which many take notice of and respond to positively. She is cordial, but always easy to smile and laugh, and leans toward optimistic tendencies of thought.
Xiao's illiteracy does little to hinder her mental strength: she has an intelligent mind, eager and quick to learn. Having assimilated an eloquent manner of speaking in her travels, she articulates herself well despite being unable to read the definitions of what she is saying.
While she takes caution with most situations, the femme is also very gullible, far too easily-trusting. Without an extensive knowledge of the world beyond what teachings have been imparted to her through word-of-mouth or a mentor's warnings, many less savory concepts are quite foreign to her, and thus tend to be more painful and confusing when encountered. It is likely she will suffer many hardships with dishonest individuals in the future.
There are dark sides to every cloud, no matter how richly lined with silver, but the Keeper does her best to keep the negativity sealed within. Xiao is vindictive to a fault, especially in regards to those who deceive her; this, coupled with her tendency to bottle anger, makes her grudges quite long-lived.
Beneficial Traits:
- Confident
- Optimistic
- Clever
- Eloquent
Neutral Traits:
- Gullible
- Naive
Detrimental Traits:
- Bottles Anger
- Vindictive
- Prone to Extended Grudges

History
What can be said? Life, as the lady would offer in her optimistic (yet understated) manner, is life, and hers is just as fascinating and full of wonder as anyone else's!
After leaving the safety and security of her clan, Xiao sought out to learn about the world around her; she still hasn't quite yet figured out what she wants to do with herself. A tradition-bound Keeper educated in the arts of lunar ritual, cultural dance and song, and tea ceremonies, she moves from one area to another, carrying with her the rich culture of the Keepers of the Moon to share with others as she learns in kind. She has made many a tavern brighter with her presence, singing the songs of her people and entertaining patrons with the graceful dances of a Keeper.
For now (until she manages to settle herself with a proper societal trade) she has no actual 'place' in the world - just another Miqo'te lass with a keen eye for shiny things and a serious love for learning who also happens to be a star conversationalist.
