Appearance & Personality

Very much the dancer, the woman's appearance has a svelte quality. However, with her height being oddly tall for a Miqo'te female, one could be forgiven for describing her as having a waif-like figure, if being draped in fine quality clothing did not oppose such a description. With long, pale pink hair, bordering on white, and eyes a similar hue, it would appear that she fits the stereotype of a fairytale princess; however, she has lately been forgoing her glamours and letting the viper mint shine through, looking moreso like her brother - and feint traces of scars can be seen underneath her face powder, if one was allowed such a close look. Her appearance is also littered with an assortment of piercings and inked tattoos, most likely her brother's doing.

Her personality is one that appears scatter-brained, however, upon closer inspection during a conversation, she can be seen to be quietly observing under the guise of air-headed blankness. With those she feels comfortable comes sarcasm and a devil-may-care outlook that Mother does not approve of, one little bit. She has been described as flighty in nature, but is loyal to those she deems worthy of her time; considering how select this aforementioned group is, it is of little wonder why melancholy strikes often - the recent business leading her brother to be distant does not seem to be helping the situation, especially in regards to having something resembling a healthy sleep schedule, as she relies on him to calm the nightmares that have plagued her since childhood.

Biography

The daughter of a courtesan and an unknown Keeper. Full-time fairytale Princess.

Said image would be unheard of if her Mother had not married into money through her step-Father who, being a wealthy merchant that he is, enabled such a lifestyle. Despite this, the children not belonging to said merchant, herself and her elder brother, are just as spoiled as the one who was.

However, that did not stop their step-Father praying to the twelve regarding how the odd children were not his; only the sweet youngest daughter held that claim.

Unlike some of her cohorts, money is no issue. A reason for this may be perhaps the day their step-Father took them down to the docks and asked them to pick out which ship belonged to him. The children enjoyed the game, choosing the largest, most dazzling ships at the port. They were only half right; turned out the entire fleet belonged to him.

Father laughed. Everyone else laughed. Her brother pushed Father off the dock.

Laughter continued.

L'Vivae ran for his life.

Childhood

Hours upon hours were spent playing in the gigantic library contained within the house. One minute it was a castle, then a dungeon, then a pirate ship. It was not only once that their Mother had to convince both Vanelle and Vivae to get down from atop the tall bookshelves.

For the most part, the siblings were inseparable. Incredibly possessive in regards to one another.

Then the youngest sibling came along.

Vanelle would be lying if she said she even accepted, let alone doted, on the newest arrival. Many plots to ship the infant to another part of the continent were conceived, but in vain. Thankfully, this attitude seems to have waned as the years have gone by and Vanelle spends more time out with the home. The relationship between she and her brother is also different as to how he is with the youngest. For if he treated them the same, the girl would most likely turn the house upside down.

Teenage

With a height rivaling that of most Miqo'te males, and the waiflike figure of a dancer, Vanelle was an awkward, gangly teenager. It was not odd for her to be mistaken for her brother from the back in their younger years. Thankfully, as :they grew older, they were able to be told apart due to obvious reasons.

These teenage years seemed to spark the rebellious personality trait in the girl. As her brother took on more responsibility :in the family, he began to become overprotective, especially in regards to his younger sisters. Not one to be :controlled, Vanelle was quick to learn how to climb out the window and escape the estate grounds undetected.

Present

The woman can usually be found in Limsa Lominsa or the market of Ul'Dah; Gardania is unlikely given the sickly humidity of its climate. The only valid reason to visit Girdania, in her mind, is to bother Romanaux Aubel in his shrub. If in Ul'Dah, she is normally found sharing company with a questionable cohort of individuals. However, the caution that should be taken seems to escape the female as she happily sits on the laps, and braids the hair, of mercenaries, murderers, and pirates.

She has taken to not covering the scars that litter her face and body through advice given by one of these individuals; however, if it were not for the excellent quality of clothing, poisons and arrows littered upon her person, one would think she was just one of them. She has lately been forgoing the glamours that masked the tell-tale green eyes of the Viper tribe, resembling her elder brother more and more as of late.

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Interest ♥ Sexual Desire ♥ Platonic Love ● Good Standing ● Neutral ● Poor Standing ♥♥ Romanaux Aubel : Meeting by chance in Limsa Lominsa when Romanaux had forgotten matches to light his cigarette with, the two seemed to hit it off with their snarky, sarcastic back and forth. However, in a make-believe game of 'points equal prizes'(10 points for 'bumming a cigarette', '30 points for winning at an archery challenge', 100 for a kiss, etc), things turned intimate very quickly...with both being competitive and aloof enough in nature to not really -care- about the full implications of their games. ♥♥ L'Vivae Tia : Vanelle's older brother, goes by the name of 'Greaser'. The fact is believable if one is to notice their childish bickering; however, the way they dance raises altogether different questions. They are an odd pair, even for siblings. It seems that they have little care for social norms, given not only the close way they interact together, but also the way they interact with others in a highly teasing, almost predatory, manner...unsettling would be an appropriate term to describe it. ♥ Teld're Eska'aldren : This handsome young Miqo'te gained her attention when offering tea and cake to the backdrop of a dismal afternoon outside Girdania. From then on out, Vanelle can often be seen perching on the male's lap, or idly braiding his hair, while calling him a 'savage.' Looking from the outside, with their behaviour towards one another, and the nicknames, one would think there is something more - they would state otherwise, especially when her older brother is concerned. Lately, however, she is more likely to tease her brother in regards to her closeness with Teld're, and the blonde is more than happy to join in for the sake of irking Greaser. In conclusion, Vanelle feels calm and content around the blonde. ♥ Mikh'a Elakha : The two met assuming the other was a courtesan - and only one of them was right. Despite such an assumption usually earning some kind of retribution, Mikh'a avoided such through his jovial charm and wit. The two appear to have a common love of reading, and of playing with words; they are generally not allowed to be left alone together in polite company, as they try their damnedest to drag the conversation down to the innuendo-laden gutter. ● Marlon'to Menai :: Vanelle met the blonde mechanic through Teld're. With Marlon's non-existing ability to blush and just get generally flustered...he caught her attention very quickly. A recent event caused the male to claim that he would drag her to the seven hells with him, inciting her need to tease him more. After all, his annoyance dissipates quickly when ear pets are involved. ● Earahvia Satorie : Vanelle met the woman by chance through Teld're, and has since taken her on as she and her brother's personal project. Although Vanelle does not understand Era's lack of confidence or willingness to take what she wants, she and Vivae are more than willing to assist her in these lessons through dancing. The lessons seek to enable the woman to be more confident, and less awkward; for if she becomes comfortable with herself and her body through dance, the rest writes itself. Vanelle was taught from a young age that it was essential to be elegant and deadly at the same time - a foundation towards her own lessons with the distinctively shy woman. ● Ethri'a Valnyr: Vanelle met this man through a chance encounter one morning. At first thinking he was a mute, she was soon proven wrong in that the male was just a particularly quiet introvert. However, she finds his bashfulness that contrasts greatly with his controlled and refined demeanour, all in all, intriguing. Ultimately, she likes to play with him. ● Aiouxdaux Beaumont : The two met through Teld're, but from that they have become good friends in their own right. With their minds usually living in the gutter, and their sense of mischief, these two hit it off quickly. These two are absolute menaces in social meetings, often leaving Teld're confused or turning red, J'azhar stammering and Mikh'a...well, he is usually in on the joke. Recent events have...confused this relationship, with the Elezen's plans to leave inciting Vanelle to numb herself to the good standing the male had before, namely for her own safety via detachment. ● J'azhar Tia : Vanelle can often be found using the small male as a leaning post, or leading him in a dance. She appears oddly protective of him, despite her teasing of 'Tiny Legs.' The male was gifted an amber jewel that matched his eyes; it appears as if she is trying to boost the male's confidence in his own worth. Given recent developments with Aioux, Vanelle has warned the small Miqo'te about getting involved, stating that there 'need not be more casualties when one shall suffice.' It does not take a genius to figure out that J'azhar is...wary, around her.
