  ❝  

  I may think of you softly from time to time. But I'll cut off my hand before I ever reach for you again.  

  ❝  

 rule 001. 

IC is not OOC: How my character acts and behaves is not a reflection of me as the player. If you have any genuine concerns with my character, bring them to me in private.

 rule 002. 

Ellie as a character does not follow the lore 100%, and does bend it liberally (while being logically explained that fits within lore constraints). TLDR: if you're a lore purist, she is not for you.

 rule 003. 

While I understand and respect that lalafells are adults, I will not ERP/engage in any explicit/lewd RP with them. What you do is your business, I am just personally not comfortable engaging with lewd lalafells in any form.

(I'll gladly interact with SFW lalafells for SFW interactions only.)

 rule 004. 

Please understand that Ellie is not friendly towards garlean characters; don't expect sudden violence, but do not expect an immediate welcome mat either.

 rule 005. 

Ellie is polyamorous; she is willing to be romantically involved with romantic partners/allow her partners to seek others (with proper OOC communication). This does not mean I will ship with just anyone, let alone engage in any sort of romance/erotic roleplay.

 rule 006. 

Due to my schedule/health-related issues, I prefer to do longer-term RP in discord, and shorter scenes in-game when/if possible.

 intro. 

Hello, you can call me 'Ellie' (much like my character). Thank you for reading over my carrd! I know it's a lot to take in, but I appreciate the lookover regardless. I hope you enjoy her as I have.

 disclaimer. 

Absolutely no minors/anyone under the age of 18 years old. I am an adult in their 30s IRL and my character was made for interactions with other adults. Please do not take this as a slight, this is not only for my own comfort and safety, but yours.

personality

There's many ways Eliceyn has been described. Convoluted, contradictory, but above all: puzzling. Most have known her to be reserved and taciturn; the very few who see what she hides behind her mask claim beneath the cold exterior is a woman who has bent and bowed but never broke.

It's difficult to say where the mask she wears ends and the true person beneath it begins, but there's no doubt behind it is a complex puzzle many have tried and failed to solve.

 Eliceyn Birch 

❝ I am mine...

before I am anyone elses. ❞

 strengths 

 flaws 

 Rennir Swale 

relationship type: Romantic (Strained)

An important person from Eliceyn's past she thought long-gone, and the biological father to Eliceyn's son.

A former conscript, he was forced to join the garlean army after his home came under occupation (at the threat of execution if he refused), stationed in Kugane for a number of years for training until he was deployed to Doma.

On record, he is said to be deceased, having met his demise after an explosion at Castrum Lacus Litore. The few who know he's alive know the true story of his "demise".

Currently he is making a life for himself, and trying to learn more about his former flame and their son.

 Evelia Soleux 

relationship type: Family

Eliceyn's mother; to say the two have a strained relationship is an understatement.

For over twenty years, Evelia sat in the gaols beneath The Vault in Ishgarde, imprisoned by her late eldest daughter (for reasons she will not say).

Though she and Eliceyn frequently butt heads, it is clear she cares for her daughter and wants whats best for her.

A member of the Sharlayan Forum, she carries out her duties with pride and skill befitting one of her status.

Currently she resides in Sharlayan with her husband and their grandson, where she acts as his caretaker and one of his mentors.

 Grayson "Sparrow" Soleux 

relationship type: Family

Eliceyn's son.
The center of her entire world.

Growing up isolated in the stone walls of Ishgarde under the care of his late aunt, he knew very little of his mother as a boy. By the time he learned of her afflictions, of his family's origins, he was already a man of eighteen summers.

A penchant for mischief, and a history of catastrophic antics that have given the forum enough grey hairs to last a lifetime, he's a young man who hides a mess of complex emotions and feelings behind sarcasm and wit.

Make no mistake, he wears his foolishness as a mask, concealing his true strengths until the need arises to reveal them.

There is no doubt which of his parents he takes after, in personality and prowess.

 <Caedis Tenebrae> 

relationship type: Friend

Do not let the rather callous treatment Eliceyn shows the aura fool you: there is a genuine bond between them.

A semi-frequent patron of The Rookery, as well as one of her co-workers in other venues of employ, Caedis and Eliceyn share a hobby in certain... 'recreational substances'.

Caedis being a prolific botanist and skillfully crafting and even creating new sorts of herbs and plants for their wares is what keeps Eliceyn around, and them in her good graces (despite the fact that Caedis killed a beloved plant in her bar one drunken evening).

Callous bickering and back and forths aside, you will find yourself hard-pressed to find two people so different but still maintain a genuine bond.

Carrd Temporarily Unavailable

 Dante Redstone 

relationship type: Romantic

One of Eliceyn's first partners; the two of them met under strange circumstances, and after spending a single night together, the spark between them quickly burst into a wildfire.

His silly antics and personality mixed with his uncanny ability to tolerate her snark and sarcasm managed to charm her and effectively, helped warm her once cold heart.

Often he is away for travels, but when they can see each other, they act as if they had never been parted.

 Garrik Fallon 

relationship type: Romantic

The bond between Garrik and Eliceyn formed in a very non-typical fashion for the hyur. Where as many vied for her favor, Garrik saw her for more than what others believed her to be. So it was no surprise that the two eventually became romantic partners.

He saw who she was behind the complex mask she always wore, and rather than turn away, showed her the compassion and understanding she never expected from anyone, as well as patience.

He's also one of the few people who can put up with her shenanigans since being freed from the voidsent that she once hosted in her body.

 Kugane 

The Red Lantern District:

Despite no longer having a business in the infamous district, she still has a myriad of friends and colleagues who not only reside in it, but work within its walls. she is frequently seen at a strange medicine shop, cavorting with an elezen gentleman.

Her name tends to have various reactions, some in respect, others out of fear or wariness.

 Sharlayan 

Sharlayan:

In the very early days of Evelia's newfound freedom, Eliceyn hid their relationship, claiming to be an assistant. Once Eliceyn was no longer a danger to herself, her own mother revealed the true nature of their relationship.

Because of their unique heritage, Eliceyn willingly subjects herself to be a "research specimen" for those born with void-tainted aether in hopes of understanding their condition.

 The Rookery 

Eliceyn's own bar and establishment; recently opened in a corner of The Goblet, when she is not seen at her usual hauntings, she is often there either hiding in her offices, or slinging drinks to the thirsty patrons who occupy its doors.

• The Rookery

 The Royal Chambers 

A risque venue meant for those with heavier desires to be fulfilled in the sheets, Eliceyn works there to capture guests and staff in their best forms (when not working in the back rooms). She rarely speaks to other patrons, but is always willing to take your photo upon request.
