Parker Connor (pronounced [Par-Ker Kaw-Nr]) (6th Sun of the 3rd Umbral Moon (June 6)) is the jovial, emerald-eyed proprietress of Wulver's Den. Spending much of her day sleeping or working on the general upkeep of the Den, Parker comes to life at night. A welcoming hostess to most, the Den is often filled with her warm, boisterous laughter. Though maintaining the Den is her first priority, now that it is once more up and running, Parker has found some spare time to put in to her other passion - adventuring. Many of the staff members who work alongside the highlander lass have accompanied her into the field, knowing full well her skill in combat. Whether serving a drink or fending off a creature's attack, Parker seems to always have a smile on her freckled face.

Appearance & Personality

Parker is 72 ilms tall. An average weight for a fit Miqo’te. My eyes are a dark orchid purple and my hair has a similar streaks through it. My hair is short black naturally slicked back looking. I have 3 noticeable scars on my face. One across the bridge of my nose and two on either cheek slashing up towards my hair. My Miqo’te markings are mirrored on each side of the face. They are two long thick slashed points towards my mouth and nose then a single slash pointing diagonally towards my eyes. The clothing style I tend to enjoy are loose fitting tops and bottoms and flared boots of any height.

Notable Clothing/Items

- A pair of grey fingerless working gloves, made for her by her grandfather. Though worn frequently, the gloves show little wear and tear.
- During her visits to Ul'dah, Parker wears a golden medallion around her neck, an item also given to her by her father. The front features the hourglass of Althyk while the back has been reworked to reveal an inlay of a golem's hand grasping a gem.
- A silver ring with an inset of peridot sits on Parker's left index finger. A token of victory in the original Wolves Den fighting area, Wulver gave the talisman to his daughter after she won a brawl against a Roegadyn at the age of 14.
- A sword made of a fine blue metal, kept sharp and ready. Won in a drinking and card contest; Parker lost at cards, but was declared the winner by the owner of the Quicksand herself when the young highlander was the last of five people still conscious after fifty shots of Limsan Ruby Rum.

RELATIONS

Romantic Interest     Platonic Love      Good Standing     Poor Standing
♥♥♥♥♥ Klav'ar Opine : Parker's first friend once she moved to Ul'dah, Klav'ar is the daughter of a merchant on the Sapphire Avenue Exchange. Less than a year younger than the Highlander, the small-statured Keeper became a fast friend as the two girls would often sleep over at each others homes, play cards, shop on the market streets, and 'do battle' with the small beastkin and vilekin just outside the city gates. As the pair grew so did their affection, but it was not until the age of fifteen that Klav'ar made the first move and came out to Parker with a well intentioned kiss. Weeks later the two were a couple, lasting for a few years. After the Battle of Carteneau, Parker returned to Gridania,
●●● Enja Niuhali : Enja, the tailed 'purple wonder', was the other troublesome half of the childhood duo. When not otherwise occupied with family dealings, Enja was often running and laughing through the wooded paths on the outskirts of Gridania with Parker. Most often having her tail chased by the ginger girl, Enja was always a step ahead of her friend. The pair would play in the tall grasses of the glades, tucked away from the eyes of adults; or swim in the cool, shaded streams of the Black Shroud. Many a time, when the sun began to wane, Parker would find her friend curled up in a tree, napping.
The two lost contact after Parker left for Ul'dah, but, upon their meeting again, near a decade later, they fell into their friendship as if they had parted only the evening before.

Appearance

Height: 6 fulms 2 ilms - Of average height for a female highlander, Parker stands toe to toe with most Midlander men. Not giving much attention to her height, she has been annoyed with it at times - usually when it comes to purchasing clothing and armour.

Weight: 130 ponz - A fine weight for any female highlander, Parker maintains it with consistent training of her martial skills.

Complexion: Pale and freckled are the two words that best describe Parker. Spending most of her youth in the shadows of giant trees in the Shroud has kept her skin quite milky. Freckles, from her mother, are very abundant upon her nose and cheeks and can be found in almost the same count on her shoulders, arms and just below her collar bone. Living in Ul'dah for a decade did end up giving her a tan, though after returning to Gridania just before the Battle of Carteneau, her skin has once again become pale.

Physique: Surprisingly slim, Parker nonetheless boasts arms and legs of roped muscle. Her upper arms and shoulders are especially taught from years of practice with sword and shield. Small rounded hips and an average sized bust give away her sex.

Hair: Her bright red hair with light and dark highlights throughout was almost always pulled back into a tail, with a pair of small braids along the sides of her head, set to mirror her father. Recently however, she has cut her hair, giving her a more tomboyish air. Somewhat self conscious about her new look, her close friends constantly insist it suits her.

Eye Color: Flashing emerald green orbs keep watch of every twitch of an enemy, or patron. At certain angles her eyes seem to have minute golden flecks.

Distinguishing Marks: The callouses on Parker's fingers and palms are the result of years of swinging a sword and cleaning a tavern. Her left forearm is sometimes tinged a slight blue due to fending off attacks with a shield.

Friend - Amaare Margolis: A Lominsan friend of Wulver who acted somewhat as an older brother to Parker in her teenage years. This relationship continued as she got older, Amaare began to frequently flirt with her in a friendly manner, usually leading to Parker becoming playfully annoyed and getting back at him. Amaare briefly dated Enja, though the two ultimately ended the relationship in a less than civil manner. After leaving Ul'dah to rebuild the Den in Gridania the two friends have drifted apart. A fellow highlander, Amaare is roughly a decade older than Parker.

Friend/Lover - Klav'ar Opine: Parker has known Klav since her early years of living in Ul'dah with her father. The only daughter of a merchant on the Ruby Road Exchange, Klav and Parker met while Wulver was paying a delivery bill to Klav's father. Growing up together, the two would frequently play prank on both Wulver and Klav's parents and two brothers. When the pair hit their teenage years Parker began fostering a crush on Klav's older brother. This infatuation lost its appeal when, while she was helping Parker wash dishes in the back of the Den, Klav'ar initiated a different kind of relationship by kissing the highlander. The incident, having kept the two apart for a few days in the beginning, led to a full-force same-sex relationship that lasted for several years. After the death of her father and returning to Ul'dah to reopen the Den, Parker rekindled the relationship which had fallen apart due to lack of contact. Now in their twenties, the two continue their relationship whenever they have business dealings with each other or Parker is in Thanalan for the Adventurer's Guild.
