Tatsuko Naeuri
[edit]
Tatsuko Naeuri (Pronunciation: Tots-u-ko Nah-eh-oo-re), has no memory of her family or where she was from. Even her name is something she's fairly certain she made up. General translation for her name is "Dragon Girl Seed Farmer", a very basic Raen styled name. The girl tends to be very shy, almost withdrawn, but for those who can coax her out of her shell she can be quick to smile with a quirky sense of humor.
Short and slender, even for an Au'ra, Tatsuko looks as if a good strong wind would blow her over. Despite her frail looking frame, strong muscle tone belies a hidden strength much greater than what one might expect. It's difficult to gauge her true height as she tends to purposely make herself appear as small as possible. Black hair frames a heart-shaped face and pointed chin. While usually cut short, lately Tatsuko has taken to letting it grow longer. Her skin is quite pale, almost translucent, covered in white scales that shimmer with a pearly opalescence. Her most distinguishing features are perhaps her eyes, one the color of amethyst, the other a deep green, both with pale blue limbral rings.
Tatsuko comes off as painfully shy, often doing everything she can to not be noticed when in a crowd. She tends to be so quiet as to be easily forgotten. Those willing to take the time to really get to know her, however, will find a bright young lady of extreme innocence. It is these people who are treated to her smiles and laughter, both which reveal her more light-hearted nature. Though it might seem as if she isn't paying attention to what's going on around her, those who have gotten to know her will find she is actually quite observant, able to remember odd details most failed to notice. It is perhaps this attention to detail that helps her when it comes to learning new things, often picking up the basics of a new task after only being shown once. Strangely, the girl can also be quite stubborn, especially when it comes to debts. She hates owing them. Tatsuko will often do all she can to ensure a debt is repaid as soon as possible.

Tatsuko has had no formal combat training. She has recently been taught the basics of archery, but her aim leaves something to be desired. Mostly, if she has to join a fight, she'll flail about and throw random objects in the hopes of at least being distracting.
Here is a list of recent and/or notable fights, roleplay scenes, etc. that CHARACTER has been a part of. This list is by no means all inclusive, and serves more as a general reference as to what HE/SHE has been up to.
Tatsuko doesn't speak of her past very often. What little of it she does talk about references time spent among the Garleans, though it's rarely anything positive. More often than not, when questioned about her past she is evasive or simply says she doesn't remember.
After being injured in a fall, Tatsuko was rescued by a passing Miqo'te who healed her wounds. He also paid her bill at the clinic she ended up spending the night at due to her injuries. Feeling herself to be in debt to him, she insisted on doing something to repay him. At first Keesa was reluctant, but he eventually accepted. A series of seemingly random events led them to being a pair of wanted criminals in Western Coerthas and now the pair has decided to travel to Sharlyan in search of a better life. Ironically, while the pair made it to the ruins of Sharlyan their journey brought them right back to Coerthas by way of joining a new school. Even more strange, Tatsuko and her traveling companion managed to score the highest in their respective fields of academia and combat ability as to be named Prefects for the first school year of the Haurchefant School of Knightly Pursuits. While it remains to be seen if they will retain their titles into the second year, Tatsuko has enjoyed the challenge of adopting to the student lifestyle.
These are mostly backstory-related relationships.
Listed here are the non-family characters, both PC and NPC, that CHARACTER has interacted with enough or in such a way for HIM/HER to form a real opinion about them. Please don't take personal offense if your character isn't listed here, or how the interaction or relationship is described. It isn't that I dislike your character or our RP. I just tend to only add these as necessary for those who make a real impact on CHARACTER, and descriptions are purely based upon in character experiences and opinions! Last Update...

Tatsuko is painfully shy, but very approachable. If you're looking for help on reasons to approach, look no further!
I've been roleplaying for a long time in various forms, from table top to forum to MMO. I rather enjoy the creative outlet it gives me and am willing to go just about anywhere the RP happens to go. That said, I do keep a very distinct line between myself and my character. For instance, and this is a big one, if my character happens to be dating someone's I certainly don't believe that I am dating that player. Conversely, if my character dislikes someone, that doesn't mean that I dislike them. I know these are usually unspoken rules, but I've come across way too many folks who blur that line, so I like to be firm about it upfront. Overall, I like to think I'm pretty easy going and drama free, though I am human so sometimes I do let my emotions get the better of me. Just know that if I cross a line, simply talking to me is the best way to work things out. I can't fix a problem if I don't know it's a problem. ^^
Overall, I'm pretty chill as far as guidelines go. I don't have an extensive list of 'Do's or 'Don't's or things that I personally find triggering. So chances are, you won't offend me or make me uncomfortable unless you're trying to or just being really skeevy in general. Still, for the sake of making sure everyone's on the same page here, let me make a few mentions in particular:
