FIRST GLANCE FOR THE HASTY:- Very small for a Duskwight, about 180cm (5’11″) in height
- Nose and chin have quite hard features, almost like a Roegadyn
- Ice blue piercing eyes, slightly reflective in the dark
- One eyebrow consistently higher than the other, often giving her a roguish or skeptical expression
- Pitch black hair, usually streaked with red highlights
- Compact, muscular body of someone who seems to have done a lot of hand-to-hand combat
- Charcoal like skin, covered in many places with old scars of minor and major cuts
- Tattoo on her right arm, four stylized tree branches, three black one red, stretching from her shoulder down to her fingertips
- Knuckles are always either bandaged or gloved
- Protruding, relatively large ears, the right one with scarred nicks and missing parts of its tip
- Scratchy, deep voice as if she has spent a lot of time in smoked filled rooms
- A smell like when moist earth meets sweet honeyFOR THOSE WHO HAVE MORE TIME TO SPARE:Though she seems large to the eyes of an Hyur, the Duskwight in front of you is one of the smallest Elezen around. But don't be fooled, what she lacks in size she makes up for with her rather compact and exceedingly muscular physique.Kazara's black and red streaked hair frames a face that, because of its hard edges, has probably often been confronted with the suggestion that one of her parents might have been a Roegadyn. An implication that the Elezen might just comment on with a constant raised eyebrow and a smirk on her lips.Upon closer examination, the observer would probably refrain from insulting her anyway, as the Elezen looks like she would make short work of troublemakers. Her charcoal-like skin, if visible, is covered in many places with older cutting scars, and her bandaged knuckles indicate a long history of various melee fights and brawls. Even her excessively long ears seem to have been partially affected, the right one in particular showing some old nicks and is missing a part of its tip.In general one has the feeling that the big ears and her ice-blue eyes would not only give you but at the same time every other person in the room a certain amount of attention.However, if Kazara manages to fully focus on you and start a conversation, it quickly becomes clear from her deep, raspy voice that this Duskwight has spent most of her life in the company of smoke and alcohol.And if you finally dare to get real close to her, your nose might be rewarded with a mixture of moist earth and sweet honey. And probably a hint of coffee.ADDITIONAL META INFO:Name: Kazara Dawncreeper

***...if your char has its origin in or a connection to fishermen or sailors from Limsa Lominsa or Western La Noscea: ***
Sooner or later, a sailor in the region might come across the tragic story of the "Dawncreeper", a small merchant ship that had the distinction of belonging to a family of Duskwight, who were dedicated to seafaring and known for getting their hands on rather unusual goods from the Black Shroud. They imported them via the Strait of Merlthor and shipped them all over Vylbrand.
Just as the family was about to retire and invest their fortune in one last great crossing, the Dawncreeper disappeared without a trace. Some suspected that she had sunk in a storm, others whispered that she might have been the victim of a pirate attack.***...if your char has visited bars or brothels in Limsa Lominsa before or shortly after the last Calamity: ***
Kazara worked as a bouncer in various establishments for almost two decades, and many Roegadyn sailors had made the mistake of underestimating the little Duskwight due to her size, until they found out the hard way what the word "leverage" really meant. The Elezen knew pretty well how to stay in the background and in the shadows, to only appear in case of emergency. Her hypersensitive hearing and excellent eyesight in even the darkest environments made her a perfect watchdog, noticing even when one of the "guests" in the back rooms misbehaved. And when it came to the safety of the staff, the Duskwight knew no mercy, whether someone came at her with fists, knives or smashed bottles.
The aftermath of Calamity also brought various changes in leadership at the places Kazara worked, and often not for the better. There were rumors of a Duskwight that gave a brothel owner a free flight out the window of his office into the murky waters of the bay after he allowed patrons from the city's executive ranks to do things to his employees that even hardened sea dogs would only wrinkle their noses at.***...if your char is familiar with taverns within Gridania from the last seven years: ***
In a small back alley of New Gridania, close to Quiver's Hold, there existed for a while a cozy little tavern called "Shrouded Sisters", run by a Wildwood and a Duskwight who acted like siblings, but couldn't have been more different. One tall and lean, the other small and muscular. One always in the spotlight, the other always in the background. One was the figurehead of the place, the other the real heart and soul of the tavern. Kazara, unlike her partner Marielle, always seemed to have an open ear when serving drinks behind the bar, but if you had ever tried to flirt with her or even got close to her, you would have been irritated by the fact that a few days later she would have hardly recognized you, or often not at all, and sometimes even behaved as if you were meeting her for the very first time.
Then one morning, there was nothing but smoking debris where the building had been the day before, and the Twin Adders officers in charge couldn't even say for sure if the owners hadn't been inside during the fire.***...if your char has dealt with mercenary troops around Ul'Dah in the last two years: ***
In recent years, a small group of mercenaries has been gaining attention. They had their headquarters in one of the many back rooms of Pearl Lane and specialized in so-called "vermin extermination". Speaks, problematic wildlife and smaller voidsent incidents. One member of the force in particular stood out for her overabundance of sarcasm and often unbridled brutality. The short Duskwight was known for throwing herself with her gauntlets into frontline battles without inhibition, often not letting go of her pitiful opponents until they were already spread out over several spots on the battlefield. In the bars of the city she was hardly to be found, and if then mostly only after a particularly violent operation, seeking solitude with a whiskey glass in her hand in one of the farthest corners.***...if your char has been frequenting bars or cafes lately: ***
After disappearing from the scene for quite a while, Kazara seems to be paying regular visits to all sorts of venues lately. Those who knew her from before would now describe her as more reserved but also more balanced. Sometimes alone, sometimes accompanied by a small over-enthusiastic Viera, but almost always with one hand on a coffee cup and the other flipping through a small red notebook.***...if your char is often out at night in Shirogane: ***
Meanwhile, the Duskwight is a regular nocturnal stroller in the residential district of Hingashi. Sometimes in civilian clothes, sometimes dressed in a red suit, but often lingering and with a dreamy gaze that goes out to sea.***...if you have any other idea to hook up for RP: ***
Just whisper me beforehand. I am open to most ideas and I am sure we will find a way to meet one way or another!

I am a 30+ roleplayer generally interested in all kinds of RP. Slice-of-life, romance, sensuality, adventure, you name it, even darker themes. I love meeting new people and their characters and form relations. However, due to my RP often taking a mature turn, I do not roleplay with minors as a strict rule.Walk-ups welcome, especially with the RP tag on! Also feel free to whisper me in crowded places, but be aware that I will treat /tells as IC as well, unless they are flagged with OOC brackets.I prefer down to earth roleplay. All my characters are people from the street, who try to stay out of larger politic themes and especially away from godlike entities who could trigger world altering events when sneezing at the wrong time.Fights can be resolved either by roleplay or rolling, but please whisper me beforehand to lay down the rules.In a 1-on-1 situation my RP is mostly paragraph based, but I'll happily adjust to match that of my partner. Just let me know if you'd prefer it in a different way.I'm not interested in an OOC relationship. All romantic or ERP interactions are to be kept IC.
