Visual Notes

  • Always wears a practiced, smug expression. One can practically feel the glimmer of mischief behind those crystalline eyes of hers...

  • As she has no voice, the Miqo'te girl cannot speak. Communication with her in-character is limited, but flexible.

  • Underworld mercenary thief/spy/assassin for hire. If you pay her enough coin, 'Echo' is willing to forfeit a degree of her humanity to pledge her loyalty to her patrons.

  • Her eyes... so mesmerizing... like falling into an endless void. Why is it so hard to look away...?

  • Aether-Sensitive individuals might note a distinct lack of energy around this woman. She seems to sit beyond what should be natural -- a space devoid of energy where there should be more.

  • Depending on her choice of wear... one might note the arcane brand seared into the skin of her back... as well as the freshly-lain scars lashed upon. The scars curl around her shoulders, and under her breasts... marring that sigil in a complex weave of lashings.

Roleplaying Hooks

Thief/Spy/Assassin for Hire

Elana spent many of her early years of freedom making a living off of the skills that cultivated following her self-realized liberation. Where most courtesans were skilled in the arts of allure and entertainment, Elana tutored herself in the arts of espionage. She is not particularly skilled when it comes to one-on-one confrontations, but her unique skill-set and niche viability on the field has earned her quite the fearsome reputation among those with less than reputable connections.Your character could…- Hire Elana to do their dirty work, whether it involves thievery, assassination, or espionage.- Play as one of her targets, in which Elana will use any means necessary to get what she needs.- Work alongside her, or against her.

Running from the Law

Elana has been a wanted woman for multiple accounts of Grand Larceny, Sabotage, and her attempts to assassinate a local mercantile lord. Wanted Alive for the hefty reward of Five Million Gil, This keeper has had to tread incredibly carefully... taking immense care to conceal her identity and avoid being followed as she moves from city to city.Your character could…- Blackmail Elana with her past, using her precarious situation to make their demands of her.- Attempt to hunt her down and turn her in, regardless of whether they succeed or fail.- Happen to recognize her, and either sympathize with the girl – or question her motives.

Rehabilitation

Shortly after fleeing from the brothel she once served, Elana was found and nursed back to health by a Telempathic Shaman who sought not only to tend to her physical wounds... but her psychological ones as well. But rehabilitation is a slow process... how can one truly unlearn the cruel tragedies of their own continued existence?Your character could…- Find Elana struggling to survive, and attempt to offer her aid.- Try to "redeem" her from her misguided ways... Recondition her in such a way that perhaps the nifty little assassin might find some happiness in the future.- Attempt to aid her in her pursuit of vengeance, in hopes that it may sate her bloodlust.

Collared and Chained

Being enslaved so readily... raised to be the perfect, subservient puppet... such conditioning would be a shame to let go to waste. Perhaps some of it lingers... like an enchanting fog nestled within the back of her mind... simply waiting for the right passcode to activate it once more.Your character could…- Enslave Echo themselves by force... breaking her will with steady precision.- Offer her refuge within a veiled paradise... only to ensure she becomes entirely reliant on your support.- Manipulate her into submission... letting her think that every choice is her own.

Unlikely Encounters

Contrary to… No one’s belief, really – i’m not just here to be edgy Miqo'te Rogue. I want to have fun, and if our characters happen to meet in a public room, at a bar, a lounge, a spring… whatever – that’s fine! No need for dark storytelling, or kinky sex. Just tell me what you’re here for and we’ll figure things out.

About the Player

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to scroll through Elana's Carrd. Here are a few quick things to know about me, as her player.

  • I am typically online in the afternoons/evenings (EST) and can usually be found idling in Mateus or Balmung. My schedule tends to be very busy - but I try to make time for roleplaying whenever I can.

  • PLEASE do not try to solicit me for IRL things. I’m not interested in nudes, i’m not interested in a relationship, and my flirty OOC persona is not an invitation to come onto me.

  • I am well over the age of 18 and I ask those that wish to engage in erotic and mature scenes to be the same.

  • I don't mind people who ghost or occasionally need a break. Life happens, and your needs always come first. ♥

  • Anything my characters say/do in character should not be mistaken for my own actions. I really would prefer to avoid any drama sparked by roleplaying, so I would appreciate if you do the same.

  • While i'm relatively new to FFXIV, I consider myself a veteran roleplayer with 10+ years of experience. I'm still adjusting to the lore, so I may take some creative liberties here and there. But I do my best to stay lore-accurate where I can, so feel free to correct me if I may any mistakes!

  • If you expect to defeat Echo in combat, expect to do so with dice rolls involved. Unless an agreement is reached before a battle begins I prefer to leave the outcome of these battles up to chance.

  • I'm open to Echo having romantic connections in character, but please acknowledge that I make a point to separate myself from my characters. Relationships will remain solely in character unless you want to get to know me personally.

  • Feel free to message me anytime. Online, or on Discord! Discord tag is available upon request.
