A poisoned flower...
Lissome and graceful in the way water bends around stone, Rairakku's complexion is that of a pampered noble, or perhaps a courtesan. As such: flawless skin in the shade of morning dew kissed at the cheeks and forehead with the blush of sunlight, eyes ever highlighted against the waterline, dusted with creamy shadows along the fold of their eyes—eyes as alluring as pools of rare yellow wine. Their features are narrow and angular, and combined with their manner, they are an epicene beauty, their gender out of reach, their full-lipped smiles rare and knowing.Their fashion seems to adapt to their environment, except in those instances where they don the ceremonial supple leather robes of their life at the monastery, with the collar held high as to cover their lips, hints of pale skin flashing through the garments like secret windows into the temple of light. However, the quiet, pale shadow they present themself as seems to favor neutrals, bruised plum hues, the blues of the deepest waters, and greens of high summer aspens.
I'm such a fool.
POLYGLOT...
Since arriving to Eorzea and the infamous Quicksands, Lilac has earned a reputation for themself as a master of languages. They speak and write in a number of tongues from Othard, including some more archaic such as High Ivalician. They tend to offer translation services to merchants and scholars in need of understanding uncovered texts or bills and writs. They can easily be hired for this work.
COSMOPOLITAN...
The bills and rumors fluttering through the adventuring halls of Eorzea suggest this Doman is a master scout and guide. They seem to have a keen eye for finding the safest, quickest paths through harsh terrain, and have led many a merchant or refugee caravan through these treacherous passes. They tender their services to naval captains, caravaneers, mercenaries, and more when they require a skilled scout and guide through the wilderness.More quietly, Lilac has a reputation as an urbanite tracker, too, navigating cities like they would a forest.
INSCRUTABLE...
Unruffled, almost impossible to read, Lilac presents themself as a servant ready to do right by others. Ever polite and sanguine, they don't rock the proverbial boat, nor ruffle feathers. Some wonder at what kind of training they must have had in the Far East. Rumor has it they were an operative in the Othardian Resistance, forced to maintain composure in dangerous situations. But nobody can confirm that. Nobody knows the name Lilac, which probably isn't their name.
DEATHSTALKED...
Mediums, seers, and diviners have felt the ashen brush of death at Lilac's heels. Stray cats and dogs avoid them. What could it mean? No one is really sure, and it's not as though they've ever commented on the issue. Maybe the matter can be forced...
This is the OOC section. Thank you for taking the time to read through this carrd! I go by Ani OOC (she/her), and I'm 21+ and LGBTQ+. This character is inspired by a Pathfinder 2e and D&D character who I love quite a lot, though Lilac has departed quite significantly from their source inspiration.This character deals in themes of subterfuge, guilt, morally gray situations, religion and faith, political intrigue, combat, and more. Lilac is as much a character in an ongoing story as they are a character to be engaged in via casual RP.They keep their status as a shinobi a very carefully guarded secret. If that's a secret you'd want to uncover about them, please reach out about that! I'm interested, I just don't want to be caught off-guard.Thank you again for reading :)
