⁘About⁘



This Miqo’te doesn’t immediately come off as beautiful, so much as striking in her looks. With facial features perhaps a bit too exaggerated, she might seem awkward if not for the utter confidence she carries herself with. Luminous orange eyes lined in dark khol are bright with a keen gaze, while her lips bear an often mischievous tilt. She stands quite tall for a Miqo'te woman and her stature seems that much more exaggerated for her lithe, dancer's build.Her age is difficult to discern, her only tell being the faint lines that appear at the corners of her eyes when she smiles. Thavnair is known for its peerless alchemy after all.Her ears and nose are adorned with several small piercings, and gem sits at her brow. She seems to favor airy, flowing garb, suited for heat.

With the aforementioned mischief and confidence, Irsia has an almost dangerous air about her. Still, when approached, she maintains a friendly, sociable front and a wicked sense of humor.

Strengths: Irsia is nimble, quick, and quite good with daggers and chakrams. She has a good knowledge of healing herbs (and harmful ones, too), and can make decent potions and tinctures for common injuries and ailments. She is a quick study for concepts she has interest in.Weaknesses: Stubborn, and slow to accept help and advice from others, she often finds herself isolated. She has a pessimistic view of the world and often assumes the worst of people. Though she hides it well, she's very paranoid.

Common

An Artist's Artist: Whether through dance or just a keen eye, wherever Irsia goes she can often either making art of her own, or inspiring artists around her.Near & Far: Her thick Thavnairian accent gives her away, though frequent use of Dalmascan slang speak of her travels.Cordial Companionship: In Radz-at-Han, Irsia was a fairly well known, formally trained courtesan. Since appearing in Eorzea, she hasn't taken up the profession again, though she has rubbed elbows with some elites in Ul'dah, perhaps flirting with the idea of it.

Rare

Sedition Through Inspiration: Though Irsia patronizes artists and seems to inspire them, she also seems to provoke dissidence, somehow subtly pushing these artists to speak truth to power, often to their misfortune.

Exceptional

Imperial Inclinations: For those of the especially observant and lucky types, one my note that Irsia has been present in areas where Garlean officers have gone missing. (As an aside, if you're looking for a someone to hunt your Garlean down, let's discuss!)Every Sun Must Set: Every Dawn Must Begin Anew


There must be some kind of way out of here. . .

🠶I'm open to most themes, but I do like darker ones come with a little OOC communication. This doesn't mean that I need to pre-plan everything, just that I like a little heads up.🠶 I'm comfortable mirroring and my own style wavers between paragraphs and shorter, faster replies. I switch it up depending on the situation.🠶 I prefer to RP in game, but don't mind a few catchup sessions through Discord here and there.🠶 If any of my RP or writing makes you uncomfortable, please don’t hesitate to bring it to my attention. I’ll be happy to work it out, even if that means retconning. You being comfortable and safe is more important than my RP!∵ Disclaimer
🠶 I have the fucking awesome combo of ADHD and dyslexia, so I often miss posts. Especially when the RP is moving quickly. I promise it's nothing personal! If you think I missed one of your posts or read it wrong, please send a whisper! It happens aaaaaall the time, trust me.
