While I'm okay RP'ing with this, I think I need a more serious tone of an assistant for RP x.x.... I'm not sure if she'll work, sorry to make you go through all that trouble. Definitely would like to RP some time though! (again it feels like I'm saying that too much to people and I'm making empty promises but it's true, I will RP with anyone that does a walkup to me while I'm IC XD)(07-21-2017, 03:12 PM)Valic Wrote:How embarrassing! I totally did not mean to leave that section blank. Regardless, I hope you'll find the goals section on the wiki page I linked in the succeeding prompt to satisfy your curiosity. I would age Velrithe at 28. I thought I had that on the wiki, but apparently I did not. I'll fix that.(07-21-2017, 11:55 AM)Vericute Wrote: Velrithe JorogumoNot sure if you meant to skip the goals section or not but that and I'm curious what age she might be. Other than that, I might have to think this one over for a lil bit, has a lot of potential to offer. My only concern is the accuracy of witchcraft to FF14's lore opposing Valic considering he's very keen on most magical studies.
RP style(s)(such as M, E, Paragraph, etc): Any and all. Depending on the situation, I sometimes prefer more frequent dialogue over paragraphs of description every few minutes. I don't like to be 100% serious all of the time.
Race:Â Hyur (Highlander)
Gender: F
Interest(s): Cute things, money, mental intelligence, brewing potions, walking through forests with bare feet.
Hobby(ies):Â Reading romance novels, finding things that intrigue or gross out other people.Â
Profession(s):Â Witch (Sells good luck charms, curses, love potions, etc)
Personality: Obsessive. Afraid of failure, of being left alone. Motherly.
Goal(s):
Background/Story: https://wiki.ffxiv-roleplayers.com/pages...e_Jorogumo A harvest witch with little clue as to who her ancestors were or what they did. Despite being well-traveled, she had found few leads and eventually resigned to pursuing other interests.
With the loss of her business partner, Sylvia Jesal, the magical services business Mother's Embrace had to close due to lack of clientele.
Personal question:Â I feel as though Velrithe's obsessive nature would lend quite well to a yandere retainer persona, which honestly sounds quite fun and funny to me. I tend to cling to one partner at a time for role playing things and being held to a professional bond seems like the kind of idea to keep things glued together.
You've seen me ingame, but you can also message me on discord at Vericute#9145
My own stance on the witchcraft is as loose as the ingame lore surrounding them. They appear alongside vampires and other monsters as costumes from the Continental Circus for the All Saints' Wake celebration, so at the very least they're a fictional thing known in Eorzea.
When hexing or cursing others, all of her results are simply placebo effects. It'd be too close to godmoding otherwise. Velrithe always has an excuse ready for when her less-conventional magics fizzle out.
The more complicated rituals that she does are things that she reads about. They're akin to showmanship or throwing things at a wall to see what sticks (few things ever do.) She pursues obscure rituals as a way to find a connection to her ancestry or any hidden talents she may have. These fruitless shots in the dark are consistent with her other behaviors, such as travelling to the far east to find clues based on nothing more than the etymology of her surname.
