Warren Castille · **10-14-2014, 11:24 AM**

A small handful of people know what Warren's like when he's out of his armor.

FreelanceWizard · **10-14-2014, 12:25 PM**

L'yhta's more or less an open book, but bits and pieces of her tribal past, especially the circumstances surrounding her departure, don't typically come up in RP because she doesn't like to talk about it. The whole affair is still traumatic for her, and only one person knows the whole story IC (though you can read about it on her wiki page).

She also doesn't talk a whole lot about her training with the Wizards' Choir, though that's just really a function of it not coming up in conversation. She has a lot of stories about her lack of finesse in training, including burning beards off and destroying furniture, as well as the quirky behaviors of a group of superannuated mages.

Also, she was an avid user of recreational substances to "expand her mind," though as her Very Good Friend disapproves of such, she's curtailed her usage considerably (and whines about it to other people, but she is rather immature).

Eva · **10-14-2014, 12:31 PM**

There's probably a lot of little secrets that only one or two people (and often not the same one or two) know about Eva. Â I suppose I can give up a few of these:

1. Her born name was not Eva. Â She changed it herself for two very specific reasons.
2. She was obese for most of her teenage years and the first half of her twenties.
3. For the few months after her father's passing and before the Calamity, she possessed tremendous wealth as the result of an inheritance. Â This was lost before she could figure out how to spend much of it.
4. She's skilled in sleight-of-hand and the use of daggers but makes no public mention of such and only performs simple parlor tricks for amusement (and will not be aÂ ninja ICly).
5. She does not understand how she's able to manipulate aether but simply accepts it - the more she tries to rationalize/understand, the less potent her ability. Â Apart from healing, she is only able to control water, though she has touched wind in the past under certain conditions.
6. She lost a son during childbirth when she was in her late twenties which supposedly left her barren. Â That she got pregnant and gave birth to twins more recently is something she looks upon as a miracle and blessing from Nophica.
7. After losing a dear friend several years ago she has had a difficult time forming solid friendships. Â She tends to think she is more respected than liked, and that others keep a certain respectful distance from her. Â She yearns for the days she had a 'bestie' who could break through those barriers and wonders if she ever will have that kind of friendship with anyone again.
8. Due to her cultural upbringing, she has a derisive outlook of people who proclaim to be family where there is no blood or matrimonial ties - e.g. close friends calling themselves brothers or sisters. Â She views it as a slight to actual family, but seldom expresses any negative thoughts about it.
9. She is slow to fall in love, but in those times when she does she becomes fiercely protective, a bit possessive, and unwavering in her devotion to that individual.
10. She borders on being obsessive-compulsive about cleanliness and tidiness, more pertaining to placement of objects in a room but also with some regard to personal hygeine.
11. She is an avid swimmer and will often swim early in the spring and late in the autumn when the water is too chilly - which she says doesn't bother her. Â As a result she often catches a cold during these times of the year. Â She also will only swim alone in private [or with a lover]. Â In part because of past meaning, and in part because of her own physical insecurities, she views it as a very personal and spiritual thing and not as a recreational activity - though she does not begrudge others who swim in public. It is just something sacred for her.
12. She's probably addicted to tea, chocolate, and white wine.

Telluride · **10-14-2014, 01:22 PM**

I'm still one of the new faces in town, so to speak, but these threads are always fun for development.

Nathan isn't really a private person, but there are two things, and really only two, that can short-circuit his jovial and unserious nature with a quickness.

He has buried a deep seated conflict that was created on the day he simply left his mother behind, with no warning and never sending her any kind of message, to tend the flock of sheep that he came to hate, and with which he associates repression and loneliness. In fact, there is as much to his outgoing nature in keeping this buried as there is in his natural personality. Attempting to push him too hard about his parentage and what happened to them will result in a very disgruntled bard, though he has had a decent amount of practice in steering away the conversation.

However, anyone who damages his custom-made lute, or attempts to steal it, will see something else entirely, since he sees the instrument as his personal talisman, the source of all his livelihood and identity. Damaging it, even accidentally, will quite quickly trigger the temper in him that exists in no other situation than this. Someone who breaks or steals the instrument will unwittingly have a huge Highlander, skilled with both bow and brawling, as a permanent enemy, one who will have absolutely nothing else to live for but revenge.

(As a player note, I make no apologies for the repercussions to anyone who tries to invoke this just because they read this OOC entry! *grins wickedly*)

Dogberry · **10-14-2014, 04:27 PM**

Dogberry's secrets are dwindling as time goes by. Some aspects of his past he never wanted to talk about, so he just never did. Lately, he's opened up about them as he comes to terms with his past. It's actually a really rewarding process to play a character in the middle of a healing process like this. At this point, all of his skeletons are pretty much out of the closet.

Iskierka's biggest secret is that nobody knows ICly what happened that made her wear a mask. She's admitted to a few that it is because her face is horribly disfigured, but the only explanation she's given for the nature of her disfigurement has been that "she is as her father made her." In truth, her voidsent obsessed father noticed her aptitude for magic and snapped, carving arcane patterns into her face. He said it would help her.

Marisa · **10-20-2014, 12:09 AM**

Well half the RPC forums knows it by now, but almost none of my in-game RP friends know that Ryoko is an apprentice inquisitor.

Xydane · **10-20-2014, 09:36 PM**

This seems fun! I'll post 5 things!

1) Xydane doesn't always act like the "badass he thinks he is" 24/7. In fact, a handful of people have seen him is his comical carefree side. These people are:
- Jajara Jara (Barfights!)
- Clover Blake (Xydane gets weird feelings in his stomach.)
- Orpheus Arkouda (See that guy? Let's go hurt that guy.)
- Rinette Molkoh (More barfights!)
- Kiht Jakkya (Best person to act bipolar as hell in front of.)
- Osric Melkire (Second best person to act even more bipolar in front of.)
- Kyraeth Vale (We haz the same last name!)
- Crisiet Liautroix (Best Elezen to piss off and mindf**k at the same time! Come at me, bro!)
- Enju Abbagliato (Yep, I'm just sleeping underneath this tree. You can take my sword if you want, lolz.)
- Haruko Kokojo (You see that heavily guarded Ishgardian City? Let's go storm that city.)
- Aya Foxheart (Oh, I'm not a killer in a cloak. Don't mind me, I'm just a Super Moogle. I deliver... stuff... for the Moogles.)
- Jancis Milburga (Makes Xydane feel bad when she takes care of him.)

2. Xydane's past lover shares the same resemblance as Clover Blake!

3. Xydane's father, Kraven Vale, served under the Maelstrom a long time ago.

4. Though Kraven served under the Maelstrom, Kraven's family actually lived extremely far away in an undisclosed part in Eorzea.

5. Xydane and his brother Marcus are not Ishgardian born.

Jethas Zykyri · **10-21-2014, 01:11 PM**

I'm one of the newer faces here, but i figured this might be fun to do.Â I'll focus on my main Jethas for this, seeing as not a lot of people have met him yet.

1.Â Jethas is overly curious, and is always up for learning new things.Â This can sometimes get him in trouble.Â Things he presently has some knowledge of are:
Using a Lance (very basic skills)
Using a Bow (again, very basic)
Using a sword and shiled (Basic stuff, he's no pro)
Fighting with his fists (a skill he began learning from his previous mate and her family so that if something got past his magic, he'd have a way to defend himself)
Healing Magic (again very basic.Â He can close more serious wounds and set broken bones, but that's really about it.)

2. Jethas passionately hates Amal'jaa.Â It was because of them that his previous mate died after they were attacked.

3.Â Jethas likes offering advice, but if someone brushes off his advice, he starts developing a dislike of that person, and ten to one gets rather pissed/insulted.

4.Â Despite his always trying to act strong and confident, inwardly Jethas has a lot of doubt in himself and his abilities.

5. Jethas can be very stubborn and rash, often times getting himself into trouble that could have been avoided.Â He also tries to do things himself instead of risking endangering those he cares about.Â This tends to get him in trouble.

Aya · **10-21-2014, 01:25 PM**

All sorts of things ^_^

Berrod Armstrong · **10-21-2014, 02:11 PM**

Berrod was once healed by a conjurer who used a bit too much of his own life force to get the job done, instead of borrowing from nature. The Conjurer died a few weeks later and Berrod has kept a pressed leaf in remembrance since then. He'll likely never mention it to anyone as long as he lives.

Jana · **10-22-2014, 01:54 AM**

This is coming up more and more often lately, but Jana's very vindictive. Her overall driving goal has always been payback for something or other, even if the exact target shifts from time to time. It's also why I RP her as having only the Titan-Egi (at this time): Titan's reason for attacking in the story is vengeance against the "sons of man" driving the Kobolds out of territory that is rightfully theirs, much how Jana feels about the Garleans setting up shop in Castrum Oriens.

W'seckhi Asah · **10-22-2014, 04:36 AM**

(10-12-2014, 09:31 AM)Askier Wrote: Also Askier sleeps with a stuffed animal. Lol.

Fio does this from time to time, as well. He's still got his doll from the tribe.Â

And he also wets the bed when he's crazy stressed.

Erik Mynhier · **10-22-2014, 05:33 AM**

This one is kind of dumb I guess, and really only three players ever knew this and all three are gone now but, when Erik designed the crest of the RWs, he used his family's Coat of Arms. So in short, the symbol for the Red Wings, is the same as the Mynhier's family crest.

Roswyn · **10-22-2014, 06:08 AM**

Ros has personality and developmental disorders.

Gaspard · **10-22-2014, 06:48 AM**

hmm lets see.
lucan shies away from displaying "true" emotions, because he dreads the lack of control they create. He hates being at the mercy of his own emotions.

lucan used to ve quite the dandy, enjoying the good things in life and with a penchant for meticously organizing pleasant days.

lucaniels name is a pseudonym and homage to his mother, an eorzean migrant by the name of clarke. His original name is lucan iel sidiatoris.

while he fashions himself a "bad person" he makes it a point to leave the truly innocent alone. A sort of mentality where he only harms those willing to raise the proverbial gun themselves.
