RP Info
I'm down for almost any kind of RP. I personally tend to prefer long-term storylines, especially with darker or more mature themes. This isn't to say that I'm opposed to casual/"slice of life" RP though. U'xaya can be rough and brooding at times, but once she warms up to someone she's quite the friendly cat.I am not against ERP or character romance should it develop naturally, but do not come up to me specifically to seek it out. If you are unable to separate IC and OOC when it comes to romance/ERP I will also ask that you refrain from pursuing either for both of our sakes. If you are making me uncomfortable I'll ask you to take a step back, and if you continue after that point I will cease communications with you, and potentially file a report if necessary.I try to follow the lore for my own characters, but I have no problem with lore bending or breaking characters provided they aren't wildly overpowered or too out of place in a normal FFXIV RP setting.I am fine with Discord RP as an alternative to in-game, but whenever possible I would prefer to RP in-game. I would prefer that any long-term RP happen primarily in-game as well.
History
It would seem there is nothing here...
General Hooks
These hooks might be known by almost anyone.
A close inspection of U'xaya reveals many deep scars and patched rips on her clothing. She's clearly been through a lot, and may have a story or two to tell.
A trophy in the shape of a horn hangs from a belt on her waist. Even the least aetherically attuned person can feel the strength of the fire-aspected aether radiating from it.
Specific Hooks
These hooks will most likely only be known by specific groups of people.
Every moon, U'xaya typically returns to the Springs to deliver skins and meat from her hunts, as well as to visit the grave of her sister. However, she has not been seen in close to three years now. There hasn't been a single trace of her in some time. (Known by any U tribe Miqo'te or frequent visitors of Forgotten Springs)
There's a heavy air of guilt and anger surrounding her. The dark in you feels drawn to her. (Recognizable by any Dark Knight)
You've come across this Miqo'te before in some of your shadier dealings. Perhaps you share some connections in the criminal underground. (Known by any sort of smuggler, headhunter, pirate, or other criminals)
OOC
Thanks for taking the time to check out my RP profile! If you like U'xaya and want to RP sometime feel free to shoot me a /tell in-game, or a DM on Discord or Twitter!A little background about me, I've been roleplaying for probably close to eight years now, starting out with cheesy forum roleplay when I was younger and moving to more detailed and "mature" RP in the last few years. I spent a long time roleplaying in WoW on Wyrmrest Accord, and moved to FFXIV about a year ago. I'm a shameless fan of generously angsty (but still tastefully so) plotlines, but have no objections to lighter/more casual RP as well!As I did mention being OK with ERP, I want to reiterate that I do not actively seek it out and will turn you away if it seems like you're only interested in ERP with me. I also have a hard stance on not doing anything even close to ERP with Lalafells, or with anyone who I suspect to be under 18.Nights work best for me, but I'm typically available most times. My current class schedule is all over the place so it's hard to say when I'll consistently be online, but typically Tuesday, Friday, and weekends are the best days to plan things.

What I've planned may be confusing to some.
And I must insist that nobody stand in my way.
Recently, things have felt... wrong.
Determined to find an answer, I've left this place behind.
