Attitude
Quine is becoming steadily more unpredictable as a result of recent events and other means not known to her. While usually a smart-aleck and mild tempered, it can switch to complete withdrawal...or the opposite. This causes her to be slightly reluctant to make any kind of bonds but this will likely not be admitted. Instead, she forces herself to make contacts in an effort to be friendly. Her loyalties to her friends maintain a strength that would rival steel....but only once the person has been judged to earn it and hold it.
Appearance
Quines hair changes often as she gets bored with it. It appears that she has a decent amount of it as it rests on both her shoulders and extends down the back of her neck. Both of her rather stern eyes are mismatched in color: the left one a blood red and the right one a silver rose hue. She bares a scar on her forehead that looks like it was fairly recent as scars go. Likely due to her tall stature, she often looks rather imposing to be near in person.
As far as her clothing goes, she's been experimenting with punk style looks lately and darker tones. The stains from the blood of many things patch the outer lining of her long coat and even to her gloves. Her boots are the clothing most worn of all yet, surprisingly, seem to have lasted well through the wear and tear of her daily ventures. Perhaps the last thing to note is a large choker around her neck that's mostly shielded by her high collar. In the middle appears to be a large cats eye gemstone of the most peculiar colors, being the only thing that you can see of it if she moves a certain way.

Biography
In the Beginning
Born to an elezen mother and roegadyn father, Quine was brought up under the watchful eye of her father who taught her the tools of his trade: Piracy. She would spend the next sixteen years of her life pillaging ships and plundering them, much to the despair of the Limsa people. She and her father even went so far as to target villages. She was very difficult to apprehend as he held decent sway in the city since much of his money was laundered and footed under the table to support rather unscrupulous acts. It didn't help that they often traveled together.
This changed, however, when Quine came of age and began to notice things about the village folk. She saw them as little challenge to fight and hardly worth the effort of stealing from or extorting. After razing her first village, she realized that the lives she had just taken were from innocents that lived and grew in families just as she did. This struck her when she watched a father die while trying to save his child from a falling building, making the experience difficult to erase.
Realizing that this was no longer how she wanted to operate, she began to question who she was. She chose to change herself drastically to the image that she desired and stripped her fathers name from hers. Their relationship became greatly estranged from not only the act of defying him but the mutiny she staged only days later to steal his ship and his crew. It was a long battle but she won in the end and tossed him into the sea, sailing the ship back to Limsa. There, she spent the next four years proving herself to Admiral Merlywyb and laying her weapons down to her cause.
Leading to Present
On her 19th birthday, her crew threw a celebration for her during a return trip from a bounty. Quine had been sailing the high seas as a bounty hunter since she was taken under Admiral Merlywybs wing and watchful gaze. But as the celebration continued, it began to dawn on them that celebration wasn't on the minds of all the crew. It started without warning: the disappearance of her shipmates, the loss of her senses and the sound of guns firing. Many of the crew killed her more loyal mates who tried to protect her, each of the betrayers having a strange aura about them that only now seemed to surface. She didn't understand what was happening but had little to no time to react. Instead, she found herself being rushed to one of the smaller ships upon the side to be rowed quickly to land and guarded. The journey itself wasn't an easy one as the tiny boat was barely a match for the gigantic waves that threatened to toss them overboard. They were still less prepared when they thought a krakken was attacking the ship...until the creature rose from the water and showed its visage. Quine would never forget the face as long as she lived, astounded beyond belief that she was unable to lift her gun and kill the deformed voidspawn that was once her father. It barely held the same features, drowned out by the seaweed barnacles and writhing tentacles. But the seething void within its eyes scarred a deep imprint upon her psyche.
Present Day
Following the two years of her attack, the last three surviving members split up to have a better chance to escape whatever was clearly cursing them. Quine decided that she needed to earn more skill towards defending herself, quickly taking an interest in thaumaturgy as her primary art and creating her own fighting style using destruction magic and guns. She traveled as an adventurer to Ul'dah and remained there for study. While stationed in its walls, she is now researching the strange occurrence she faced in an attempt to better understand the threat that's so close to home; all the while, perhaps dipping into more unorthodox practices of magic under their nose to further the success rate of her endeavor. She wouldn't forget it...but it didn't mean she couldn't use it for good...especially if it meant protecting her home and land.
Miscellaneous
- She has a love for ancient history
- Shes one of the few that can keep up with Admiral Merlwybs drinking.
- Considers Noah Kelten to be her brother and often spends time studying and creating magic with him.
