Profession: Former Heretic Hunter, Bounty Hunter, Mercenary, Beast Hunter
Job: Dark KnightPersonality: Her rough appearance betrays her character, instead harboring a fun loving adventurous free spirit who enjoys socializing, especially when food or drink is involved. Although being long from home, despite her residence in Ishgard, the Steppe lives on within her and she retains much of the rugged nature of it's people, often coming off as slightly feral, dense or hard headed, giving little care for the politics and formalities of the capital. She lives for the thrill of battle, rushing in with reckless abandon, with little to no concern for self preservation. Due to her upbringing, she has a particular soft spot for animals, despite abandoning much of her tribe's traditions, a side of her that she is often embarrassed to show, as it dispels the tough aura that she seeks to uphold.Bestial Esteem - Arazyal: A warped shadow born from Sarangerel's aether, a being constructed of the purest of furies, an amalgamation of rage, pain, guilt, and deepest fears, taking the form of a towering horned beast with the appearance akin to a Shadow Wolf. It's silver coat covered in tattered cloths and celestial parchments, with eyes covered, blind to any sin or misdeed, it obediently carries out the commands of it's progenitor, capable of summoning a broad executioner blade and employing the use of knifelike claws. Although subservient, it is capable of autonomy, garnering a protective obsession for it's creator. A more than capable hunting partner, it utilizes an ability to pursue aethers beyond it's master's perception.Notable Arazyal Details:
Height (Quadruped): 3'5" (More likened to a direwolf in appearance, generally outside of combat.)
Height (Bipedal): 6'8"
Sarangerel, born to the Sagahl, a smaller Xaela tribe mostly known for seeing beastkin as equals to men, their respect for beasts making it a common destination to settle for the Lupin in the areas adjacent to the steppe. Sarangerel harbors a unique beastial appearance due to her mother being a full blooded Xaela, and her father a Lupin, formerly of the Doman royal guard. Her mother would teach her the ways of the tribe, teaching her how to forage, gather, craft, the care and taming of animals, as well as the traditional arcane knowledge passed down through the generations of the tribe, including thaumaturgy, geomancy, and other more obscure Xaela magics. However, a warrior at heart, as a young adult, she would take an interest in learning the way of the Lupin samurai, training underneath her father and eventually following him to battle to join the Doman Liberation Front during the onset of the garlean invasion.Retreating after a debilitating defeat and losing both her father and land to the hands of the XIIIth Legion, now lumped in as a refugee along with other Xaela, she would find herself attempting to settle in Ishgard alongside them. Upon arrival, however, because of the misconception that Au Ra are of Dravanian descent, she would meet the immediate resistance by Knights of the Holy See, slaughtering her bretheren left and right. A more than formidable warrior, able to hold her own and protect any remaining survivors until the Dark Knight Ser Ompagne arrived to keep them from their unjust executions. Quickly becoming acquainted with Sidurgu as one of the few survivors, they would each follow the path of Dark Knight together, but ultimately for different goals. Sarangerel's, more selfish and concerned with restoring her honor and restoring her personal value, she would offer herself to the Holy See to take on the role of Heretic Hunter. Along with her new hunting partner, her bestial Esteem of which she'd name Arazyal, having no deep allegiance to the capital or the See, nor any sort of discrimination towards her targets, she would become a valuable asset, a judicious executioner with an unwavering blade that operated beyond the watchful gaze of any god or deity.After Aymeric assumed leadership of Ishgard, however, the need for her newfound "career" slowly dwindled, having already amassed a violent and bloody, but effective and reliable reputation, she would offer her services as a mercenary, the Temple Knights would then allow her to seek vengeance by supporting Ishgard in the battle to liberate Ala Mhigo from the clutches of the XIIIth Legion. Continuing her work as a mercenary, she would eventually find herself supporting the contingency at Camp Brokenglass, where her value as a hunter would become extremely prevalent, for Arazyal would be extremely proficient in sniffing out and dispatching the aetherial anomalies and horrors of the Final Days, and eventually the Voidsent that would follow. After the events of the Final Days and beyond, she would return to Ishgard, which would become her permanent place of residence, she now fills her time with miscellaneous bounties, and strengthening her bond with Arazyal through hunting any stray voidsent or other beasts.
Long From Home: An immediate observation, it's unusual for a Xaela to be far from the steppe, it may quickly become a topic of casual conversation, although something else about her appearance may take precedence..Sagahl Tribe: Those of the steppe or familiar with the history of the Xaela may know of the Sagahl and may be confused or surprised by some of Sarangerel’s behaviors that do not align with the traditions of the tribe, those less versed may find the tribe unheard of, perhaps sparking some level of curiosity.Blade For Hire: A warrior with an extensive reputation, for her assistance in liberating Ala Mhigo and notable specialization in dispelling the horrors of the final days and beyond, quickly proving herself to be a valuable asset to any party, however, her bloody past may be too much for some to bear..Bestial Esteem: Characters with a heightened Aether sense may detect her shade, Arazyal, long before she summons it. Arazyal is also unique in the way that it can sniff out aether outside Sarangerel's own perception, and in addition is a more than capable adversary, often alerting her to the presence of the entities attached other characters, such as voidsent avatars and other aetherial anomalies.Survivalist: Brought up to live off the land in the Steppe, Sarangerel is a proficient gatherer and forager, capable of making simple tools and shelters, allowing her to spend days or weeks away from civilization, a valuable set of skills to possess while on any mission or adventure.
Hello! I'm Luna! Thank you for looking over my character's page! I’m a very shy transwoman in her late 20’s looking to break out of her shell (the other one) through getting out of my comfort zone by the way of forcing myself to socialize more. Outside of XIV, I love Gaming, Arcade Rhythm Games, Music, Touhou, Mecha (Western), Anime, Animals and spending time with my girlfriend and with my friends!I'm extremely new to the world of FFXIV RP and RP in general, but have always been fascinated by people's character's, the way they interact with eachother and the general creativity that goes into roleplay, and have always wanted to get into it myself. I would say that I am a beginner as far as roleplay and writing goes, but I'm not completely illiterate!My intention is to form deep and exciting friendships and relationships with other players and their characters! I'm very excited to see how characters interact with Sara! Mare is definitely required for the full experience of her character, feel free to swap codes!!I’m okay with a variety of themes, from general everyday type stuff to dark, depressing, thrilling, more esoteric themes. I’m also okay with smut and romance, so long as it’s carefully built up to through our character’s own interpersonal relationships. I’d think I’d like to leave my character’s preferences ambiguous, but I suppose OOC I definitely would prefer to keep to my own personal preferences (female, trans female), but a male relationship is definitely not out of the question.All of my characters exist within current day Etheirys, and may have actively participated in it's history, or at the very least acknowledge it, and I prefer to think of the WoL as an ambiguous entity that is completely separate from the lives of my own characters, but their canonical actions may influence their stories and character development.At the moment, my schedule is pretty open, but I do like to keep at least a somewhat normal sleep schedule, I’m usually up at around 7am - 11pm (MT).You are always free to reach out to me on Discord or through in-game tells if you’d like to arrange something, or just to chat and say hi! You may also reach out to me on any of my social media pages! It goes without saying, but no bigots please. :3
