You need some manner of beast or bounty killed. While Xochitl is a fighter-for-hire, she still has a moral compass. She'll hunt dangerous beasts without compulsion, having spent a number of years hunting vidraal in Tural as a Landsguard. When it comes to Spoken targets of bounty missions, If you have an official, sealed bounty from one of the Grand Companies, she'll help you. If you don't, she won't bite. She's not going to murder people in cold blood just on someone's say-so.
You need protection. If you need a bodyguard or an escort through dangerous territory or situations, she's more than capable of providing what you need.
You are or were a citizen of Tural. Tural-based characters are welcome to have known Xochitl from her time in the Landsguard. She spent twelve years touring Tural on various patrols and hunts, which makes her well-connected and well-traveled across the whole of Tural.
You are an Arena Enthusiast. Xochitl is a world-famous arena fighter from the Iron Arena of Dalmasca (headcannon location). With a capacity of 10,000 spectators, gamblers, and fight enthusiasts, Xochitl fought for years beneath their banners. She even travelled the world on tour, fighting in various reputable fighting pits and arenas the world over in order to drawl people to the Iron Arena.
Friends, acquaintances, and adventuring buddies, age 21+. Nothing against younger players, I’m just a 40-year old lady and enjoy playing the game with other like-minded adults.
People who like growing things organically, particularly relationships. I don’t like making things up out of thin air and I don’t like friendships and romances that flourish overnight. Put time and effort into creating things!
In-game RP sessions, primarily! (Discord available for OOC coordination.) I’ve had pretty bad luck with keeping Discord threads and the like active, so I prefer in-game sessions whenever possible. Not to say those methods are completely off the table, but reserved for folks who are genuinely interested in upkeeping and maintaining them.
Lore flexibility. I’m well-versed in FFXIV lore but I don’t need/want people around me who want to hammer the Nth of the lore and make roleplay feel more like homework. As long as it’s a good story and an engaging character, that should be enough!
Story and Character-driven Plotlines. I love a good epic story. I love long-term connections, be it friendship or rivalry. I thrive in a story-driven environment, if there's no story, then the RP just feels empty and more like filler until people find something better to do than there is a passion for writing.
Late Night/Overnight Friends. I tend to keep late hours, so people who are around/available between 8pm and 2am (Central US Time) are ideal.
People who aren’t afraid of OOC communication. Seriously, this is a big one. If you can’t talk to me OOC about a session, what you like, don’t like, or have issues with then please don’t seek me out. I view roleplay as collaborative storytelling that we should all have fun with and a large part of that is talking things through OOC to ensure we’re all on the same page and having fun.
IC & OOC Blending. If you’re a person that can’t keep your IC and OOC separate, don’t seek me out. I am not my character. My character is not me. Whatever interactions you have with my character are not a reflection of my views/personality as the Player. Do not conflate them.
ERP, gore, extreme violence, torture, horror, et cetera. I have a pretty stressful life, I RP and play games to relax and these topics don’t contribute to that. At the very least, please ASK me before starting anything involving these themes.
These first two, especially, are deal breakers and I will cease contact with people that can’t respect these boundaries (which is why OOC communication is a MUST with me.) If you aren’t sure – please ASK!
Most roll-based system RP. I’m a big fan of D&D-style systems, if they incorporate character sheets that allow Characters to have aspects to them that shine and fail. Being subject to random RNG without attributing bonuses for character skill and experience feels imbalance to me. (And RNG generally hates me, so... XD)
Mundane-focused RP. Slice of life, hanging out, and less-active scenes are fine, but only in moderation. If that’s all you care to do, Xochitl and I are probably not a good fit, because we both are adventuresome souls that like getting involved in things!

Experienced Roleplayer. I’ve been roleplaying for almost 35years now. I love discussing roleplay ideas and implementing them. I’m not worried about “spoilers” or ruining immersion by discussing and planning storylines OOC. Planning ensures that everyone has a chance to contribute ideas that are fun for *them* so everyone has a good experience.
Patient and Understanding. I tend to be patient with people of all roleplay styles and experiences. Just be courteous if you need to AFK mid-RP for an extended period or reschedule the scene. I understand well that Real Life and your own well-being come first, so just be up-front with me about things.
Special Information. I am a 40+ year old woman with severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. This means I may need to cancel plans last-minute depending on my pain levels/fatigue or I may need to leave mid-scene. This is NOT an indicator of interest – or lack thereof – I have a disease that needs careful tending and I have to listen to the needs of my body before anything else.
Availability/Contact Information –––
Timezone: GMT/UTC -5 or Central (US) Time. I’m mostly avaliable from 8pm to 2am, Sunday through Tuesday. Beyond that, my schedule gets pretty unpredictable, but I’ll do my best to let you know ahead of time if I have any conflicts and what my availability is.
Discord: Only provided to repeat writing partners for OOC coordination purposes only.
In-Game: Xochitl Canek@Mateus

Plug for Maev's Carrd
"Over and over have I berated the little Fool to drop this nonsense over tracking the Mirage of Deceit but because of you lot he keeps pressing forward! So-! I have elected to take matters - and this delicious body - into mine own hands. Quite a generous Mistress, aren't I?"
Tinkered around last night to make some subtle changes to Kel's face when Angoscia is "piloting" as a physical tell something is wrong. I thought it would be fun to match the way I draw him when she's in control - smaller, wider pupils and slightly more downturned eyes - and I really like the results so far!
