RP Info Location & Probability Places where the character is very likely to be seen ■ Ul'dah, Quicksand: High ■ Beaches (Mist, Costa del Sol): High ■ Limsa Lominsa: Med Affiliations Most of these aren’t public, and would have to be asked after! ■ The Pleasure Dome: Free Company. IC Inventory The following items are things that this individual carries on their person at all times. These are noted for pickpockets, and those watching her closely. This information is meant to be a prompt for insight and is not to be meta-gamed, though feel free to use this information if it comes up logically in RP (pickpocketing, a search, etc) with use of a simple /tell. ■ Coinpurse: Containing 3000 gil (a gift from her mother) ■ Journal: Covered in cute drawings ■ Clothing: Fashionable, not practical ■ Swimsuit: For beach trips ■ Glasses: For reading ■ Lance: Her weapon RP Limits I like to consider myself a flexible player who is willing to commit to a number of different types of scenes and role-play scenarios, but even I have my limits. If something is on the play list, assume it means yes, as long as it's within the context of the current play or ongoing plot. No's are typically a hard no, and it means don't ask. ■ I will play Anything that isn't mentioned below ■ Ask about ERP ■ I won't play Death or permanent injury to Marissa RP Hooks While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. Longer plots that are meant to run for more than a few quick RP's, please feel free to send me a tell so we can work out a good reason for our characters to get to know one another. I'm always looking for RP, unless I'm actively spamming PvE content. ■ She is looking for traces of her father, any help is appreciated. If you are a Raen from Doma you may recognize Marissa's surname, but likely won't know her father had a daughter. ■ Likewise, if anyone has knowledge of her late grandparents it would help her piece together her family history. If you are a Xaela who knew/were from the Hotgo tribe you may know of her grandparents or mother, but will not recognize Marissa's name. ■ She likes a drink, a drinking buddy ■ She loves to relax at the beach ■ Will help you clear out monsters/dungeons

OOC Notes Player Information Player Note There is a lot of information on this character wiki, but it is by no means completely comprehensive. There are chunks of backstory that are left intentionally vague so that details can be later added as developed through creative writing or in role-play revelation. Feel free to use Common or Uncommon rumors freely, if you want to use a Rare Rumor as a plot hook or to spark RP, I would ask that you send me a tell first, to make certain it's alright. I am from the UK, on GMT timezone. Because of this, and the fact that I play with IRL friends on a different server, I am limited as to the times I can play. Please understand that I won't be online all the time and I might not be available to RP when I am. I am over 18 years old (in my twenties tbh) Character Lore Adherence Everything concerning this character that has not been confirmed by in-game lore should be taken with a grain of salt. Anything that has had to be changed because of lore shifting will be noted below. ■ No changes. Character Concept I originally created Marissa as a FFXIV equivalent of my DnD character, a Teifling sorceress, but I ended up fleshing out her story and personality in a different way to how I RPed her in DnD, and she became who she is today. Character Tidbits Links Out Links that lead off the wiki, but are technically relevant to the character. ■ Instagram (screenshots and light RP): [1] ■ Tumblr (Journals and Letters to Mother, the odd OOC post): [2] Relationships I am not adverse to Marissa being in a relationship but I am unwilling to rush into them. If your character is interesting in dating Marissa, be prepared for it to take a while. I am not against ERP, and while I would be okay with Marissa partaking in an one night stand of sorts, I would like a tell first in order to arrange a plot around how this would come about. I hate I have to say this but please remember that IC =/= OOC and any relations I have IC are not reflected OOC, love or hate. I have an IRL boyfriend. Of course, there is nothing stopping me from engaging in casual/non story based ERP just for fun, just know that mostly I will not include it in Marissa's backstory/journals etc.
