Basic Info

R'ikve Niall (Rik-vee Nee-al) grew up as one of only two daughters blessed to a Jali (spiritual leader) of the Raptor Tribe in the deserts beyond Ul'dah. She escaped much of her mother's spiritual oversight by dedicating herself to the tribe's warrior ton. While R'ikve fought alongside the ton's mentors, her younger sister, R'Rhanorn, worked to take on their mother's place as spiritual leader for their village. Just before R'ikve claimed her own warrior title, R'Rhanorn died, shoving a reeling R'ikve up the line of succession.

Now she clings to an illusive sense of freedom, Singing the World, before stepping up as heir.

Personality

UPDATED! R'ikve is still very much a tribal girl. She prizes her warrior's instincts and harbors a small spiritual side. She dislikes Ul'dah and puts little weight in the city-state's policies and the worries of its people.

Behavior

UPDATED! Quick to anger, quicker to fight. R'ikve is a foul-mouthed heathen who thinks little of those around her. She doesn't like it when strangers butt in on her business. Woe to the White Knight who tries to defend her honor in the midst of her many arguments.

Relationships

UPDATED! R'ikve doesn't keep many Ul'dahn friends. The few she likes give her gil or provide opportunities for bloodshed.

• R'Ria: R'ikve's mother and Jali of her tribe.
• R'Rhanorn: R'ikve's sister. Deceased.
• The rest: A great number of sisters, uncles and little brothers as befitting a Seeker tribe.
• Renault Delumiere: Employer.
• Augustine Frost: Rival henchman.
• C'kayah Tia: Employer.
• Emelie Annel: Employer.
