3. Who are/were your parents? Â (Know their names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
Her brow furrows. "That's important to ya, then? ... Well, if you say so. Uh... Ma's Jojore Jore an' she's  a lotta things. Tough as nails an' just as sharp. We... we don't talk no more. Pa was called Sasanome Yayanome. Don't recall much about him to be honest but he isn't around anymore, what with the moon and all that..."
4. Do you have any siblings? Â What are/were they like?
"Oh, you know. Irritating, noisy. Siblings." She grins and shrugs. "Nothin' special about them, though, the little sand rats. I do miss 'em but... well. Anyroad."
5. Where do you live now, and with whom? Â Describe the place and the person/people.
"I suppose I live here now... Uh, sorta by myself at the moment." Jajara sniffs, glancing briefly at passers-by. "It ain't as friendly a place as I thought it'd be but I don't reckon it's as bad as some folk make it out to be."
6. What is your occupation?
"Goldsmith, mostly. I do errands now an' again for folks that need 'em, an' I mine a quite a bit on the side as well. Nothin' real special."

"Uh. Short. Yeah, har har. I guess I'm darker skinned than most...? And I got kinda red hair an' orange eyes. Oh! And these tattoos. Bet I look kinda scary, huh? ... no, that weren't a joke.

8.To which social class do you belong?

9.Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?

10. Are you right- or left-handed?
"Right."
11. What does your voice sound like?
She smiles. "Like an angel's, yeah? Heh heh. I guess it sounds a little deeper than most other girls, at least in my head."
(( I imagine her sounding a lot like Tanya Tucker, kind of low and raspy especially when she sings. ))
12. What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently?
Her mouth opens then closes. "Well gee, now that I'm tryin' ta think of 'em..."

Part 2: Growing Up
15. How would you describe your childhood in general?
"Itchy. Cause of the sand, y'see. It could've been worse though. Guess we were spared a lot of the, uh... destruction and what have you out here. It was quiet enough to be dull, but in a way maybe that was a blessing now that I think on it. A'course there are things I might've changed but... well, it could'a been a whole lot worse."
16. What is your earliest memory?
"Watchin' ma and grandma and them weavin' by the fireside. I remember the shadows an' the colors the most. I dunno why."
17. How much schooling have you had?
Jajara frowns and her eyes skip around passers-by. "Uh, well, I ain't ever officially been in a school or nothin'..."
18. Did you enjoy school?
"I probably wouldn't have even if I went."
19. Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities?
"Family. Pa taught me how ta hold myself in a fight. Uncle Horonamo taught me my letters an' my numbers. Ma taught us Gods. The rest, I guess I kinda picked up on my own more or less."
20. While growing up, did you have any role models? Â If so, describe them.
"Auntie Boro did a lot for me. A -lot-. She weren't as... as toxic as Ma was, an' she spoke up fer me a lot. She's the kind of woman I wanna be: kind an' smart, an' generous. If it weren't for her, I wouldn'ta made it to Ul'dah."
21. While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family?
"... Mostly, I guess."
22. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
"A weaver."
23. As a child, what were your favorite activities?
"Sleepin', an' slidin' down the dunes. Also, eatin'! Nothin' makes ya happier than a good dinner, I say."
24. As a child, what kinds of personality traits did you display?
"I think... I was a lot more shy. I worried a lot more about my family an' what was expected of me. Maybe in a way I was more kind?"
25. As a child, were you popular? Â Who were your friends, and what were they like?
"Hah! Nah, not really. Our herds didn't meet up too often but I s'pose from the ones that did... There was this girl, right? I forget her name now but we were pretty good friends. She taught me games you could play with a bit 'a string an' yer fingers. I wonder whatever happened to her..."
26. When and with whom was your first kiss?
Jajara's expression darkens somewhat, a scowl forming on her lips. "I don't like thinkin' about him all too much. He don't matter no more. Hells, never did."
27. Are you a virgin? Â If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity?
"Yer real nosy, ain't ya?" She fidgets with her fingers and glares down at the ground a few moments. "... No, I ain't a virgin. An' again: he don't matter."
28. If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. Â If you are just a normal being, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today.
"I... guess it were mostly a matter of not wantin' to do what I was s'posed to do. Is that a good reason for doin' anythin'? I ain't so sure sometimes."

46. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any being could do?
"Intentionally hurt another."
47. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?

48. What do you believe makes a successful life?
"Goodness. That is, bein'... good. Bein' good in any an' every way you can. I don't think it matters how much gil ya got in yer pockets, or how big a house ya got, or how many children ya have... It's how good yer heart is."
49. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings (i.e. do you hide your true self from others, and in what way)?
"I might, uh... hide things. But I ain't in the habit of gettin' real emotional-like about things, especially not if it ain't gonna help me or anyone else."
50. Do you have any biases or prejudices?
"... To be honest, I'm kinda... Well. We didn't really, uhh... -mingle- Â much when I were little. So it still kinda confuses me a little when I see all of ya different folk runnin' about everywhere. I don't mind, no no. It's just different."

I worry about her, too, 'cause she's... Well, she's been through all kinds of awfulness. Uhmm... There's Edgar, he's real sweet but he needs to eat more. An' A'tirramei! She's so nice!"
57. Do you have a spouse or significant other? Â If so, describe this person.
"Didn't ya ask this already...? Well, kinda. Uh, well, he's... Respectful. An' he's clever, so clever! An' real strong, too. I can't imagine anyone doin' the kinds'a things he does. It's kinda scary, really, but... eh. He's good."

61. Have you started your own family? Â If so, describe them. Â If not, do you want to? Â Why or why not?

"Probably Mister Baelon. He'd know how to help with anythin', I'm sure."
63. Do you trust anyone to protect you? Â Who, and why?

"I think Tia would. Reverend. I'd hope the rest of 'em, too. I'd miss them if they were gone."

67. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
"Hah! Nooo, no. I ain't a leader, no sir."
68. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Â Why or why not?
"Kinda? I'm used to bein' in groups. Just gets kinda hard hearin' myself thinks at times, y'know?"
69. Do you care what others think of you?
"I'd like to say no but I do care a little. I hope they don't think I'm just some dumb sand-licker."
53. In general, how do you treat others (politely, rudely, by keeping them at a distance, etc.)? Â Does your treatment of them change depending on how well you know them, and if so, how?

85. What is your greatest strength as a person?

"Uhh, kinda in between I guess?"
89. Are you generally organized or messy?
"Oh, Gods. Messy! So messy!"
90. Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at.
Jajara counts things off on her fingers. "I'm good at sayin' helloooo, an' cuttin' stones. Oh! An' makin' friends, I guess. I'm awful at maths, an' magic, an' not spendin' money."
91. Do you like yourself?
"A'course I do."
92. What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)?  Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public?  (If so, detail both sets of reasons…)
"I ain't an adventurer, so I guess I can tell ya why not? 'Cause... I dunno, it just isn't my thing. I wanna make my name in other ways."
93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?

"I'd... Huh." She pauses to scratch at the side of her nose. "My first thought was 'have sex' but I dunno. I'd probably make sure everythin' I got goes to someone important to me. Maybe me an'... an' someone would ride out as far as we could into the Sagolii, closer to home. An' I'd probably pray."
97. What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death?
"For not lettin' Ul'dah as it is now change me. Or, for helpin' Ul'dah be a better place."
98. What three words best describe your personality?
"I'm livin' honest."
99. What three words would others probably use to describe you?
"Silly little thing."
100. If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character?  (You might even want to speak as if he or she were sitting right here in front of you, and use proper tone so he or she might heed your advice…)
Believing in yourself is the first step to carrying on. Just because you think you are insignificant does not mean that you are - even if the world may not remember you when you are gone, there will always be someone who will remember you both in good and in bad.
