Background

Before Eorzea

Originally the heiress to a noble house in a far off land, I’delia Tohka had what she would consider a generally nice childhood. She had a fine education, including a study of many fighting styles and arts. Her favorite of these, however, was always the bow and arrow. It felt unique to her in a way that no other weapon or art did.-She continued her study throughout the years, focusing more on the bow than anything else. Her skill grew fast, and with it, a wonder of what may be waiting outside in the world. She read of adventurers and their stories and grew jealous. She wasn’t meant to go down in history. Her name wasn’t meant to become anything but a show of wealth and glory that she had never earned herself. The training she’s done would ultimately amount to nothing more than a waste of time.-She researched more for many months, calculating and making heavy preparations. In the dawn of that year’s spring, she approached her parents and informed them of her plans. She would become an adventurer and make a true name for herself. One that she could be proud of. One she thought they would be proud of. Instead she was given a long-winded speech and an ultimatum: stay and inherit the family fortune, or leave and remove herself from the lineage.-The choice wasn’t hard. She already had her gear with her and a ferry set for the next morning. The hard part was hiding her face. She wouldn’t give them the satisfaction of seeing how much this hurt her. She walked the distance that she was hoping to cover by carriage, though it proved to give her some well-needed practice with moving targets when she was attacked by wild animals. Still, she made it safely on Aldenard and journeyed to Gridania in search of her own wealth, and maybe new friends.-After months upon months of hard work, she had attained several groups she works closely with, as well as a home to call her own. Even months further past that, a year past the time she left home, she's found closure to things that she thought would haunt her forever. She has begun practice on her blade and shield skills, as well as finding locations to perform. Thanks to friends and contacts she's met on the way, she's well toward her goals.

Eorzean Travels

As of late, much has happened to the miqo'te. She's accepted that she is not nobility here; however her goals have not changed. She is determined to become a noble by any means necessary, and has taken up the position of merchant, trading both approved and illicit goods throughout Eorzea.-She has a wife and child now; though is still as adventurous as always. Even with most of her previous contacts scattered to the winds, she looks forward to what the future has to offer.

Appearance

I'delia has light purple eyes, with light markings resembling claws on either side of her face. The right side of her cheek holds a small scar. A memory of her first true fight. Her hair, while tough to maintain, is almost always found curled to a point on either side, and braided behind her. Her face appears to hold a pattern, though on closer inspection, shows to be a healed burn scar.-She stands straight, though tends to be slightly clumsy when she walks. It's not uncommon for her to be lost in her own thoughts, unfortunately bumping into passerby. However, in combat, she seems to have a higher sense of agility. Likely due to her full concentration being on the battle.-Her outfits tend to depend on the situation, with a typical performance, formal, and travel outfit.

Currently...

Delia's goals at the moment are to find a way to become a noble once more while expanding her trade routes to regain the fortune she once had.In addition, she seeks to advance her career as a performer, intending to become an idol of sorts, well known throughout Eorzea.

Nobility

- Having recently displayed her family from their tyrany, her home needs new sources of supplies and trade. Perhaps you're a noble house, or a merchant looking for a new opportunity. In which case, she'd be happy to do some trade.- Delia has experience dealing with nobility, and would be excited to be invited to a ball of sorts, or simply to entertain- Delia has a very specific view of what it is to be a noble, which means she sticks to what she considers "her place." She will scoff at "commoners" and drop to her knees in a bow if encountering one that claims to be royalty.- I'delia makes it no secret that her goal is to attain nobility once more, by any means possible. Mayhaps you've overheard her, and have got connections.- In an attempt to get in the good graces of Ishgard's noble houses, she recently moved to the new adventurer's ward and can be seen often in the Pillars, shopping for necessities.

Eorzean Idol

- I'delia plays music most anywhere she travels, and her tunes can be heard far beyond where she normally hides herself. She's also begun playing at various venues to try and spread her name more. Perhaps your character's heard of her, or seen one of her shows.- Do you run a venue and need some talent to take up a show slot? Delia doesn't charge anything, and her performances can either be text-specific roleplay performances, or with proper songs and routines set to macros!- Do you see yourself as a manager of sorts? Delia's not exactly one to take orders from another all that often, but she'll take all the help she can get with finding a way to get her name out there- Perhaps your character wants someone to practice with. Duets are so much more fun than solo acts, anyway.

Miqo'te Huntress

- While she aims to make a fortune with trade routes, gil must still be made to put towards the endeavor. I'delia is a hunter of both game, and bounties. She can also be hired as a bodyguard, with a sword and shield at the ready, or a bow and arrow as necessary. The jobs she typically takes are less intense nowadays, but she can be convinced to run something particularly tough.- New to the art of swordplay, she is always looking for a chance to practice her skills with a blade, happily accepting any challenge given to her, and open to mentorship.- She's been looking into her family's past, particularly with the I tribe. She wishes to learn what it means to be a Seeker. Though she's happy to learn from any tribal miqo'te; not just the I tribe.- Having taken on most any bounty she could get her hands on, it's no doubt that I'delia's made a few enemies. Either encountering her from a bounty of your own, or simply coming after her for revenge could be a possibility.
