GENERAL INFORMATION

Y’zareen is a proud member of the miqo’te Jaguar tribe, with her family branch originating on a small island that is part of the Cieldales archipelago. A talented hunter that favors the spear and possesses a unique magical talent, Y’zareen has left home with the goal to win gil and glory- and save her tribe from extermination

Roughly 25 years old, Zareen is the eldest daughter of her tribe’s current Nuhn and as such has grown up with the weight of responsibility for not just her sisters and half-sisters, but in the wake of a void-based plague that has overtaken her tribe, she has taken it upon herself to do whatever it takes to sent home enough gil to buy passage for the rest of her tribe to a safe place- no matter where on Hydaelen that may be.

As a cub, Zareen was prone to wandering off on her own to climb trees, explore the jungle, and track and observe the creatures there. She had a fascination for elementals, particularly those whom displayed enough intelligence to interact with, and often caused small panics when it was found that she had journeyed far too far into the jungle to be safe only to be found in some little alcove or fallen tree, singing and chattering cheerily to sprites.

When it came time for Zareen to undergo her coming-of-age, she displayed great talents in aether manipulation and work with the spear but her stubbornness and unwillingness to accept her limits nearly led to her failing her trials due to overreaching her limits. Upon achieving adulthood in her tribe, Zareen enjoyed a fairly comfortable life despite the deadly environment she called home. She hunted and relaxed whenever she pleased, taking a great deal of pride in teaching her younger sisters as they went through their own trials.

In the shadow of Dalamud’s fall, the Jaguar tribe was beset by wave after wave of voidsent, to the point where many of the older members of the tribe had fallen by the time Bahamut burst from his prison. The effects of that day are far-reaching for the young woman- in the wake of the Elder Primal’s disappearance, an aetherial sickness has overtaken most of the Jaguar tribe. Madness and death became frequent and Zareen has yet to accept the tragedies she has had to face over the last few years. When her father and the two leaders of her tribe asked her to be the first to leave home and travel to the mainland of Eorzea, it was with a heavy heart that Zareen agreed.

Far from her homeland and all she’s ever known, Zareen refuses to admit how deeply she is in over her head. Failure is not an option.

APPEARANCE

Y’zareen is tall, roughly five fulms 6 ilms, with long, strongly muscled legs and an hourglass figure. Her hands are tipped with naturally black claws and sport calluses from a lifetime of work. Zareen’s skin is a rich, natural tan, and she often wears relatively light clothing that displays her figure and emphasizes the elaborate, colorful abstract tattoos that flow across her shoulder blades, along the outside of her hips, across her collarbones, and across her cheeks.

Her cheeks are high-boned, eyes large and a deep, dramatic emerald green- which stands out strongly against the black tattooing that frames them. Full lips are frequently colored with dark stain, which makes her white smile and very prominent, pointed eyeteeth eye-catching when she flashes her frequent, quick smiles.

Naturally purple hair is worn long, down to the small of her back, in carefully crafted thin twists that are adorned with filigreed gold bands, brightly colored beads, and brightly colored feathers. Her ears are rounded compared to many Seekers, furred in a similar color to her hair with the base a darker tone and small white spots near the tips. Pierced multiple times, Zareen wears very little jewelry when out in the field but can be seen with well-crafted and varied earrings in town. Her tail is uncommonly long and relatively thick, furred in deep purple with darker splotches and rings along its length and a small white patch at the tip.

Zareen favors gold jewelry and brilliantly colored gemstones, light, minimal clothing, and leather armor. She is known to use brightly colored makeup and gold to enhance her tattoos or play up her physical attributes, and enjoys lacquering her claws with gold tips.
Aspects That Stand Out:
Elaborate tattoos across her cheeks, collarbones, shoulder blades, and hips.
Accented speech.
Always wearing gems.

PERSONALITY

Zareen is, on first glance, a very personable woman- quick with a smile and confident in her place in life and her abilities. Curious by nature, she despises looking foolish and will lose her temper if she feels disrespected or condescended to. She has a great deal of respect for the family unit and loves children, enjoying the rare chances she gets to play with them.

To more conservative individuals, Zareen’s style of dress and adornment would border on scandalous, though she doesn’t seem to have any real sense of body shame and is just as comfortable (if not moreso) in very minimal clothing as she is in more elaborate costume.

Were one to ask a member of her family, they would be given a very different description of Zareen’s personality. She has not been in Eorzea long enough to make such deep connections with anyone, though particularly observant individuals may see that her easy confidence is not as easy as she makes it seem.

L I K E S

Jewelry. Zareen loves beautiful and elaborate jewelry, favoring delicate filigrees over heavier designs and appreciating well-cut jewels, particularly those with vibrant colors.
Music. Music and song have been known to pull Zareen down alleys or into neighborhoods just to find the source. She participates joyfully in song and greatly enjoys dancing both alone and in groups.
Competition. Zareen can’t seem to pass up a competition- games of chance and skill fascinate her and she joyfully travels to combat-based competitions around Eorzea.
Baths.Zareen loves a good soak, with fragrant oils, luxuriant soaps, or incensories burning with relaxing herbs.
Luxury. Though she’d be hard-pressed to admit it, Zareen loves luxurious fabrics, perfumes, beautiful craftsmanship, and the like.
Name. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.


D I S L I K E S

Strong Scents'. Strong, unpleasant smells (particularly cooking vegetables, like cabbage) have been known to drive Zareen retching from a room.
Civilized Miqo’te. Nothing makes Zareen snarl faster than confrontation with miqo’te who have appeared to lose sight of their racial ancestry.
The Guild System. Zareen is openly critical of the mages guilds and those that blindly support them.
Beige. She doesn’t know why, but Zareen simply doesn’t like it and finds it bland and boring.
NOTE.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.

H O B B I E S

Dance. Zareen loves to dance and will seek out well-known teachers or performers to learn from.
Combat Training. Since leaving home, Zareen has been introduced to so many different combat styles that she has become a perpetual student. She spends a great deal of time practicing what she’s seen.
Sleeping. Few things in this world are quite as well-loved as a nap in a comfortable place.
NOTE.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.

S T R E N G T H S

Survival. Zareen is, at her core, a survivor..
Adaptability. She is capable of rolling with the punches and changing her plans on the fly.
Imagination. Zareen is skilled in thinking outside the box. A natural problem-solver, she’ll rarely say she ‘can’t’ do something.
Aetherial Skill.Though lacking any formal training, Zareen is moderately/well-talented with making aether do what she wants- whether that is offensive or defensive magic.
NOTE. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.

W E A K N E S S E S

Pride. She is deeply proud, to the point where she struggles in situations where she must rely on others she doesn’t intimately trust.
Illiterate. She is unable to read, simply never having had the chance to learn as a child.
Untrained mage. Due to her disdain for the mage guilds, Zareen has never been properly trained. This can manifest in unpleasant, unexpected ways when she attempts to cast.
Stranger in a Strange Land. Having grown up in an isolated place, Zareen is unfamiliar with many social mores and unspoken rules of Eorzean society and morality.
Flexible Morality. Zareen’s sense of right and wrong is...flexible. She follows her own internal logic that doesn’t always fit with the greater society.
NOTE. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.


M O T I V A T I O N S

Family - Zareen carries a burden- she feels herself responsible for saving her tribe. To achieve this, she is willing to do almost anything.
Exploration - On a personal level, now that Zareen has gained a small understanding of the size and variety of the world, she has a deep motivation to see as much of it as she can.
NOTE - Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam pretium at magna nec volutpat. Ut et fermentum erat, a eleifend justo.

ಌ OOC NOTES ಌ

OOC INFORMATION

Player Notes
I’m a full-time university student, married, in my 30’s. Long, long time MMORPer as well as tabletop and LARP RP. Been around since beta of 2.0. Currently on Mateus server. My playtime is usually in the evenings after 5pm central US time and on the weekends.
Personal RP Limits
I am a strong believer in good communication making for good roleplay. While I’ve got some limits listed here, other situations may arise during the course of play.
I will play Almost anything. I play mature themes, dark/rated R themes, and sexual themes based upon the story or overall plot.
I won't play My character will not be involved in being violent/sexual towards children. Permanent death or severe, debilitating injury are not things I am interested in at this time.
Disclaimer
Little Tidbits.
Y’zareen does have passionate feelings about civilized or ‘city-fied’ miqo’te and she may be antagonistic upon first meeting or upon being challenged on that. If I overstep in playing this, PLEASE send me a /tell..
I am very, very fond of adventure-based RP. Tavern style RP isn’t really my bag unless it is part of an overall story/roleplaying interaction.

CHARACTER TIDBITS

Potential Plot Hooks
I am actively searching for roleplay at this time. Please message me in game or via Discord at Pixelsheen#4643 if you’d like to meet!
If your character is a well-known competitor in combat tourneys or gladiatorial combat- especially the illegal or underground fights- you may have seen Zareen in the crowd or in the ring
If your character is a performer, Zareen has likely been to one of your big shows if it’s in Eorzea.
If your character is involved with hunting the void, Zareen is developing a reputation for this.
If your character hunts down rogue mages (people who have artifacts they shouldn't, or magic that's not accepted by the Mage Guilds) then Zareen is on your radar as a potential threat.
Character Lore Adherence
To be totally honest, Zareen was created in a grey area of lore. She’s within stated lore insofar as what has been detailed, however I have created a custom soul-stone headcanon as well as the branch of the Jaguar tribe being fully head-canon with Final Fantasy influences as well as real-world influences. While in public, Zareen does not draw attention to her stranger aspects, should someone want to pursue long-term or FC-based RP, that is something that would come up.
