Appearance

Y'kkris cuts a relatively imposing figure for a miqo'te. Standing at 5'5", rather tall for a female miqo'te, and bearing a fair bit of muscle, she looks almost like the kind of woman who could punch a hole in the wall. Battle-scars adorn her arms, torso and face, giving her a rough and ragged look, which contradicts the smile usually present upon her face.

Y'kkris has three distinct features which set her apart from most miqo'te. Firstly, her pale, mismatched eyes - while perhaps not particularly unusual for miqo'te - have a striking solidity to their gaze, and the paleness of the green and orange often stand out in peoples' minds. In addition, there was a bit of red tattooing around her eyes, helping accentuate her gaze, wherever it happened to fall.

And finally, the last distinctive feature was a bizarre tattoo or marking between her shoulderblades. Y'kkris has no idea where it came from, or why it is there, and certainly helps to identify Y'kkris to others.

History

"Oh, good morning miss! I'm surprised you're awake! You were out cold for at least a week, and by all rights that head wound of yours should have killed you!"

In Wineport, a Maelstrom private quickly carries a half-dead Keeper of the Moon in from Bloodshore. He yells for assistance as the battered, ragged miqo'te lay limp in his arms, barely breathing. A passing adventurer manages to heal the split in her skull before she expires, but it would be a week before she would awaken.

Y'kkris Tuanij, the only thing that the Keeper could remember. A name? It must be her name, right? If it is the only thing she can remember, it stands to reason she'd remember the name attached to her before she remembered anyone else's.

Y'kkris staggered out of the bed she was kept in, with the help of a kind lady - one of the vinyard workers who'd been watching after her between shifts. She tried, desperately, to recall who she was or even where she was, but very little came to mind.

She was told that she was found half dead near Bloodshore. Somehow, without having to look up at a map, Y'kkris found her way to Bloodshore, towards the spot the Maelstrom private had indicated. There, she found an old, worn axe lodged within the rocks - blunted, rusted and eroded, with an engraving on the head of the axe too worn to tell. Y'kkris felt compelled to pick it up, like it was a piece of her.

The next two months were filled with struggles. Y'kkris tried her best to find work anywhere - but a vagrant with blunted axe and ragged clothes does not cut a good impression. In fact, the only reason she is finding paying jobs now is thanks to the generosity of one Llaine Tetheros.

Personality

Affiliations and Known Associates

Y'kkris is an unknown quantity. She isn't aware of any prior affiliations or connections, and finds herself needing to forge new ones now.

  • Llaine Tetheros: Llaine took pity upon Y'kkris's struggling career as an adventurer and offered her some old gear to replace her worn axe and complete lack of armour. With this gear, Y'kkris has began earning some coin as an adventurer, and Llaine had taken note of Y'kkris's talents with an axe.
  • L'yhta Mahre: Though she did not know Y'kkris, L'yhta did encounter Y'kkris before, and described her as perpetually confused, ragged, and with a blank, glazed look in her eyes. She also claimed that Y'kkris knew a fair bit about Arcanima.
  • Mysterium/The Ivory Tower: Llaine introduced Y'kkris to the Tower, and while she's not particularly familiar with any of them, she's started to show up from time to time. She is not a member, but has been welcomed so far.

Rumours

Common rumours

  • That Y'kkris lass used to be a lot poorer. Good to see she's doing better for herself now.

Uncommon rumours

  • You used to see that girl walking around Limsa in a complete daze. Couldn't get two straight words out of her, like she was addled, but then she went missing and now she appears to be better. It's a bit of an improvement.
  • Nobody knows where that girl came from, she just up and appeared one day near Limsa. One person said he saw her appear in a flash of light but I'm pretty sure that part's just drunken idiocy.
  • I don't know what a Keeper is doing with a name like Y'kkris. That a Seeker name.

Rare rumours

  • She's some sort of veteran, I swear! The way she swings that axe is mesmerising, and there's no way a novice could have that much skill! Did she fight the Garleans with the Maelstrom or something? No, no, I think she's a little too skilled for that even. There's something more to her than meets the eye.
  • She reminds me of someone from years ago...I can't quite put my finger on who it was. I don't think she's the same person, but this person she reminds me of was part of the Maelstrom before the Calamity.

What PCs are saying

Known Haunts

You might have run into or otherwise know Y'kkris from:

  • Limsa Lominsa. Limsa is essentially her home, sort of, and she takes a lot of naps in the shaded tunnel near the Anchor Yard.
  • Mist. Being a new associate of Mysterium, Y'kkris has begun hanging out here.
  • Any number of old ruins/dungeons. Y'kkris is starting to get into adventuring, and her skill is certainly being noticed.
