As you scan the crowd a cascade of lustrous black hair and brilliant green eyes peering at you from a bench catches your eye. At first glance, the elezen woman appears like many others there that day in the bustle of the city. A simple white blouse covered with a worn but well-cared for leather jacket in tones of brown wraps her form, and an earthy green skirt covers her lower half to the ankles. Around her waist is a set of sturdy-looking leather pouches. You see no obvious weapons about her person and her expression seems to be open, warm, and approachable.
Catching your eye she quickly looks down to a book in her lap, but you see the shadow of a smile on her lips. A flush at the tips of her pointed ears and about her cheeks highlighting the faint freckles splashed across her nose. She knows she was caught staring.Let's discover together in RP!

For the Aether Sensitive
Avianne keeps tight control of her aetheric abilities and how much aetheric influence she pushes against the world when she's not actively casting. For those who are particularly sensitive, they would feel a gentle manipulation of aether close about her person, interacting with the energies of the world with something like curiosity. A warm summer breeze, gentle and unintrusive. Some might call it calming- a friend holding your hand.

Hooks

Always open to other ideas if something isn't listed but you wanna try! Just message me, I promise I am going to be open to most anything.

Known Oddities Merchant
((Common))If you're looking for something unique, aetheric, or mundane, The Bluebell Caravan may have something you're looking for; from trinkets and gifts to charms and aetheric binding or identification services. Stock up on supplies, tools of your trade
((Custom-made items for story progression are always available and can be paired with open contracts for a good bit of story flavor!))

Black Destrier Chocobo
((Common))Wherever she may go, a rather large black destrier chocobo is not far away. Over twelve fulms, close to five hundred ponz, this bird is big enough to carry an armored Roegadyn. He has fine, thick feathers, a lustrous beak, powerful talons, and an intelligent gaze that can easily convey deadly intent or gentle curiosity.
To a trained eye, it seems an odd breed of chocobo for a Gridania native.

Adventure's Guild Contact
((Common))Merchant Thodis is a common name among the Adventurers' Guilds in all major cities across Aldenard and Vylbrand, with various jobs on offer.Additional Contracts
((Uncommon))Sometimes the name Thodis is circulated among mercenary and bounty hunter circles for jobs that require discretion or intimidation.

Natural and Discrete Healer
((Somewhat Common in the Shroud, Rumored Elsewhere))Her Aetheric Balance isn't fitting for magical healing, but she is skilled in more natural remedies. Alchemy and Apothecary work that utilizes the aether and properties in nature, common sense, and care. It's a slow path to recovery, but far more holistic in Avianne's view. Healing is more than just the body.Some know her to be exceptionally discreet when dealing with injuries of... questionable origin.

Pickpockets, Thieves, Rivals & Other Enemies
((Happy to Talk))A chance encounter in the markets leaving her bereft of gil? A raid on her shop? A well-timed ambush on the road for the contents of her wagon? A threat from a rival in the form of a mercenary's message or aggression?Being a merchant in Eorzea has risks!A world of danger awaits those who try to make a living in such a way.
Perhaps you're just down on your luck, perhaps you're targeting her for something specific? Will a strange friendship bloom, or a bitter rivalry?

Player Contacts

Avianne is a character that is well connected in her way, and while she might have never left Eorzea, she is has so many connections with cahracters of all kinds. She also has a desire to spread the word of any characters or oginizations that she has a good report with as a form of appreciation and to help those who are looking for something.OOCly I love to see connections being made and bringing the RP community together.To marry the two ideas together, I've put together a list of PC contacts that I have enjoyed writing with!

OOC Rules of Thumb

RP is an interactive and shared exercise in story creationCommunication- Respect me and I will respect you. I expect clear and open communication with anyone with whom I write.Story Consequences- Realism within a setting is important to me. Guards, wounds, mistakes, time, weather, fate, consequences- all of it. As characters interact with the world, they should be changing. Opinions should shift over time, world views should alter, and mental, physical, and emotional stress should take a toll.All Stories- All literary and story-telling themes are welcome and encouraged. From slice-of-life to combat, horror to romance. Any character interaction is usually good, and I accept most things regarding an RP scene.Your Character- I have run story campaigns and write in my spare time. It's a big passion of mine, and I adore small and significant character development.
This character is designed to help push other characters towards desired or new ends in their narrative journey. I will typically prioritize your character's themes and ideas to give you the spotlight. I like making others shine so don't hold back on the details.Let Avianne become your quest giver!Fairly Lore Abiding- We're all here because we like the setting. Some bending and interpretation is acceptable/inevitable, but I would prefer not to interact with things that are wildly incongruent with the setting or the context of the RP Story.21+ I'm an adult and prefer mature RPers who can handle the nuance of mature storylines that may not have black-and-white answers, sensitive or complex themes, and adult content- Dark, horror, chemical abuse, and violence.

FFXIV is rated as a T for Teen game. At public events and in the open world, I prefer to interact with the pg13 rating to be inclusive to all players. I am happy to RP with younger writers (teen & up) and with Newer RPers. Say hi! I don't bite.In closed events and closed RP I am much more open to all themes

Avianne almost always has her hair down and free. The only time she has it up is when specified.

Body Shape

Avianne is an Elezen and is characterized by longer proportions. Longer neck, limbs, and torso. She's an hourglass figure with slightly heavier hips and legs. She's not overtly muscled, leaning more towards the (more traditional) soft/feminine, but she is toned and clearly takes care of herself.
