This is something I sort of struggle with myself. Manari has no IC affiliation with any Gridanian authority at all. She isn't ICly a Twin Adder, she isn't ICly a member of the Wood Wailers or the archer's guild. However, of her own personal doing, she is a self appointed defender and avenger of the Twelveswood. I've written her in such a way that she is always doing her best to uphold her own code of the forest and she loves it so much she hates to leave the woods.
So much so, that when ever I'm RPing anywhere that isn't in the Black Shroud, it really eats at me the entire time, because I know it would be eating at Manari to be hanging out in the awful salty air of La Noscea when she should be in her forest. As such, I always struggle to come up with any kind of reason why she would be in a place like Ul'dah. Anyone who knows Manari really well would think it extremely odd to find her in any place besides the Black Shroud. I don't really consider it being a case of "writing myself into a corner" because I love the way she is. But it does make casual random RP harder.
