Chaalyi Annwn
River Speaker
"Who, me? Oh no - I think you meant that person over there."
When the conversation falls upon Chaalyi, one might see that she's quick to misdirect, deflect or redirect the topic, making it quite clear this Rava isn't comfortable in the spotlight.Or, perhaps, she has something to hide.Quick to smile, she can be seen as a cheerful sort - but those that catch her in the odd moment may see a faraway look and the smile faded. What thoughts flicker behind those vibrant green eyes?

At First Glance
Generally cheerful, would be how those who only saw Chaalyi in an instant would describe her. Those who only saw the smile. Who discussed fishing with her or were easily swayed by the conversation being brought back upon themselves. A good listener, attentive, caring. Honest, perhaps even a bit fearless in topics broached.
Beneath The Surface
Those who have been around Chaalyi for any length of time would come to tell you that the woman is secretive to a fault, stubborn, and perhaps independent to the point of a death wish. Usually, those who have worked with her.Getting information out of the Rava about herself is like pulling teeth if you want anything beneath the surface details. Only a rare few have had that privilege - and even they may not have all the puzzle pieces.
What Lurks Below
Few have reached the depths of the secretive woman - usually through a means of unlikely trust or intimacy forged. Those that have, won't divulge their secrets.
Will you?
RP Hooks
If you were to get this woman talking about fishing, you may have your ear talked off for an hour or more. Though don't mention sky fish to her. She will argue you down that they exist at all.
Chaalyi loves to explore and travel, though she has a knack for finding strange things or places - to the point where her friends almost no longer ask where she got that weird thing from.
Notice a small blue fish or tiny sea serpent around Chaalyi? That's Annwn. Who she may or may not discuss.
Given that the woman is not a great drinker, getting her drunk will usually get her to loosen up and loosen her tongue. Too much though, and you may get more than you bargained for.
Chaalyi can occasionally be considered a flirt and has no qualms about discussing intimate topics in public. Unless they involve her. Then she turns red and flees.
Get her anywhere near water and she's instantly entranced and fascinated. Especially by the ocean.
Chaalyi's aether is dense and water aspected. Those that have aethersight usually can see it churning around her. Expect water to be reactive around her.
Are you a Gleaner? Are you a fisher? Do you work for the Fisher's Guild in Limsa or the Studium in Sharylayn? Any of these might be ways you know Chaalyi!

Relationships
Margie Detemps
Chaalyi's mother, whom Chaalyi loves and adores... from a distance. Chaalyi's feelings towards her mother are confused due to not having been around her for over 20 years.
Covva Djt-Marouc
Chaalyi's father, a surprise to them both as Covva didn't know he'd had a child... and Chaalyi didn't know her father existed. The two step around each other less than gracefully in social anxiety fits while barely talking.
Bjorn Qerel
Chaalyi's older brother - a typical sibling relation. Both would die for the other, yet both would also bully the other into oblivion. An ear when she needs it, Bjorn does his best to look after his little sister - even if it is a little awkward because he never knew she was his little sister until recently.
Varis Sinclaire
Chaalyi's taciturn older cousin, whom she spent time with when she was a child more often than with her brother. Having been reunited, Varis can often be seen teaching the more bubbly Viera of her heritage, and her duties.
Baidar Vipre
Chaalyi's best friend and occasional confidante, the Xaela may get on the Rava's nerves from time to time - but they both know they can go to the other if needed.
Argas Ura
A teacher for the Rava in the ways of the elements at first, the pair discovered a bond that made them fast friends and beyond. Trusting the Xaela beyond reason, Chaalyi usually turns to him first for any large life choices or events.
OOC Information
First things first! Hi! I'm fairly new to roleplay in Final Fantasy, though I've been roleplaying for decades now.I'm in my mid-thirties, have a full-time job, identify as female in real life, and am happily married. What else do you put in these things?Oh right, I'm in the Eastern Time Zone and I'm usually on after 5 pm EST until 11 pm EST during the week. A little later on Fridays and weekends!Be an adult and you'll get treated like one! I'm open to most RP, as long as there's communication going on if it might be outside someone's comfort zone. Yes, this includes adult themes - but please have a story-driven purpose behind them. (ERP for ERP's sake is just boring, c'mon folks.)
I'm mostly looking for friends, good stories and to have a good time. I can adapt to most roleplay styles, though I tend to personally prefer shorter paragraphs while playing in public. One-on-one RP or small groups is my absolute jam, and I love having someone to consistently write with.I have a very hard time keeping track of things in large group settings, so if I miss something don't feel bad if you have to poke me!I am generally a shy person and tend to have social anxiety issues - to the point where I constantly think I'm a bother/burden/upsetting people by simply existing. Please don't think this is something you've done if we're rping together.On the other side of that, if I find you to be great to write with - I will pester you for more writing because I love writing.
