Appearance

One of violet the other azure, both peer toward you with curiosity filling them. A kind expression toward those passing by or whomever wish to converse.  Draping locks flow down her front and back almost the shade of ebony only to be a facade once stepping into the sunlight. Violet hues now appear along with the former white highlights that now hold a tint of blue. Skin exposed to the sunlight hold an apparent olive undertone to which add an alluring tan if under the rays long enough.

Backstory

Sorry to say you won’t be spoiled in getting to know her backstory here. I’m not one to give it out in a LF post! You’re just going to have to read her stories! Mwuahahahha!

Currently

Wandering around aimlessly through the Far East and Eorzea. She never remains in one place for too long seeing the heavens always shift to lead her in another direction of life. A deck of cards in her hand and even a globe amongst her belongs to guide her. Along that note, she does take time to mend the wounds of those on the front whenever she happens across a battle.Ask politely and she may give a reading!

RP Hooks

Wanderer : She can be wherever you really want her to be! If your character happens to be stuck somewhere, chances are she’ll probably be there looking at the constellations or trying to. I have no qualms with dropping her in some random location for RP. 

Readings: Ever curious what the future may hold for your character? Why not ask her for a reading, but of course she does have to mention what it is she exactly does first. If you’re okay with divulging details about your plans for your characters, it can be woven into story. If not, no problem! Can be generic or in-depth. Though if it’s the latter I may have to do some digging on your character with permission of course!

Friendship: Let’s be honest, everyone could use some friends to make their life better. Nixe (and myself) just want to get out there and meet people. Learn about the people of the world around her.

What I’ve been listening to on repeat alllll day!

[divination-nixe]

From Ashes & Tears

{Music}

Words of the confrontation between all of Eorzea and Empire had reached far and wide. Day by day, the rallying cries of those oppressed sung high to the heavens. From the docks of La Noscea to even the forest of The Black Shroud, they press toward the frontline with guidance of their leaders. From the tallest to the shortest Eorzean, all were prepared to lay day for the freedom of the realm. Unbeknownst to them would be what the Empire had planned to use to raze the world to recreate it in the imagine they desired. Now the red death known as Dalamud lingered above their heads and seared fear into their hearts. Each passing moment lessened the yalms from collision until the sky glew with falling remnants of the moon.

The cries from residents of the Black Shroud rang for malms on end as the small meteors soared. Their full symphony came forth the moment of impact as shards collide with the land. Nixe stared for only moments until a member of the Twin Adders pulled her along to avoid being crushed by the debris of a nearby dwelling that had taken the brunt of impact. Her ears rang as she was nearly trampled by more that fled the village. All thoughts were to find shelter only to stop as the skies filled with another blinding blaze of the battle in Carteneau. Once again the ground trembled and quaked making it near impossible to gain a proper footing to run. A once humid evening now scorching as if she had been in the day covered dunes of Thanalan. The very ground beneath her being torn up to throw her aside into a gathering pile of rubble. What air she held in her lungs now gone and filled with ash and heat. 

Blinded by the light of the ancient primal’s fury as its prison was strewn about Eorzea, Nixe had been convinced that this was the end. All of her family gone as they had been called to the front line. Her mother a conjurer and mender, her brother fledgling of the Gods Bow. As for her, the keeper was merely a failed acolyte as she couldn’t quite pinpoint why it felt more forced than what truly called to her. Every onze of regret filled her heart as she clung to life as many did the same around her. The destruction  felt an eternity when in truth was only moments of time, cries of anguish dwindling as their very inner life was snuffed out and the dreadwyrm’s roar of fury rang along with it. All the strength that Nixe could muster was fleeting while struggling to find any salvation. Clawing in the upturned soil only to find something warm and wet touch her fingertips. A shaking hand raising to see what it was, her focus peered past her fingers toward a fallen elezen that gasped for life. His own hand outstretched and vision pleading toward the miqo’te for assistance. 

..Live…Prevail..

A voice resembling her mother’s filled her thoughts to drown out the world around her. The demanding tone to the words drawing what she could out of her to draw lines through the dirt that marred her features. Her crimson covered digits once more dug into the ground, ears pinned to her head as she wept. All the strength left within to drag her away from the elezen and what ruin was in her way until finding shelter under an enclave created by rock and fallen trees. Her worn gaze blurred by tears bearing witness to the embers of Bahamut finally be quelled to bring the land relief. Aether descending to extinguish the fire that nearly swallowed the forest, to restore what was nearly obliterated.

….Thy Life is a riddle, to bear rapture and sorrow To listen, to suffer, to entrust unto tomorrow In one fleeting moment, from the Land doth life flow Yet in one fleeting moment, for a new it doth grow In the same fleeting moment Thou must live Die and know….

Lifetrap: Dithaya Astora

Your lifetrap is:Failure-Impairment

You are characterized by feelings of apathy and despair. You feel as if there is no point in making the effort when you are doomed to fail anyway. As a consequence, you may avoid developing skills, tackling tasks, or taking on responsibility – all of the activities that might otherwise enable you to succeed. "What's the use?" is a thought that keeps recurring in your mind. You procrastinate, get distracted, do your work improperly, or mishandle the tasks you take on. To you, this feels like the normal state of things, but in reality these are all forms of self-sabotage.

It is easy for you to be filled with feelings of failure. This is a familiar feeling that you have had for most of your life. As a defense, you may have chosen a career below your potential or avoided taking the necessary steps to get a promotion in your career. It is possible that you feel safe in dead-end jobs.

Most likely you have avoided taking chances to become a success. You ignored your potential and gifts, even though others have pointed them out and, at some level, you knew that you possessed them. Instead, you kept setting yourself up for failure, which was the one thing you felt that you were good at.

What made you start wanting to roleplay?

Oh you know...

But in all seriousness, it’s been so long that I can’t even remember at this point. If we’re talking about FFXIV, then it’s easy because I wanted to see what FFXIV was like compared to WoW. On WoW, it was because I used to do a lot of forum and chatroom RP back in the day. But before all of that? I was a tween in the early 00′s when internet culture was gettin’ real. 

[Thanks @kugane-bois! Ya nerd!]
