Quill Vespertine

"Whatever you lost from fate,
be certain that it saved you from pain."

Appearance

At first glance, Quill is an atypical Viera. Unlike her much larger counterparts, she is smaller in stature, lithe and delicate. Her skin is smooth and quite pale, bright cinnamon hair, wide emerald green eyes, rosy cheeks, full yet petite lips and proud ears crowning her head, the soft tufts of fur at the tips forming a mock diadem upon each one.

Personality

Sure of herself and confident, Quill moves about the world with purpose and at times an almost childlike curiosity. Carefree and open to social encounters of all kinds you will often find her stopping to offer help or a kind word to a new face. She is tempered by her suspicion of those who offer compliments eagerly and will often brush off encounters should she be alarmed. Skittish at times, painfully clever and a dark sense of humor are among her most coveted traits.

Born in the burrows of the Skatay mountain range, Quill is one of three fraternal triplets, though she was the smallest and weakest of the bunch and the only one with the bright cinnamon locks of hair that would set her apart from her siblings. She found her purpose early in life, at the age of four summers. It started with a small scratch on her cheek, the punishment for running too quickly and slipping in the snow. It felt like a pull in her core, the small Kit conjuring the rock that had injured her and using its mist to mend the wound.As she grew, so did her abilities to use the mist around her to repair the broken and injured. So strong was her urge that even animals caught in hunting traps were healed by her and set free, something that would become a great annoyance to her kin, thus facilitating her eventual departure from the burrows.For many years she had been teased and shunned, even on occasion harassed by the other females in her tribe for showing too much compassion and not being strong enough in their eyes. She did prove useful to the sick and injured, though it was the only time she ever received genuine thanks and appreciation.Realizing that she was only tolerated and not accepted weighed heavy on her mind, to the point she thought of breaking the Green Word and escaping the prison she now felt confined to. A proud Viera to the bitter end, she could not dismiss the foundation on which she lived by, so she sought another way. She knew her skills could be improved but it required more teaching and books and even alchemy, so she approached the Elder of her tribe and made a simple request to be granted the permission to travel to Old Sharlayan and learn with a promise to return to the burrows when her training was complete.Much to her surprise she was granted this very rare and practically unheard of permission to do just that, though she would never be able to shake the feeling that the permission was not given out of love for her but rather it was a gentle way to dismiss her, permanently. Whatever the truth may be, she would never find out, setting off almost immediately to seek the training she so desperately desired, no matter the cost.What she found in Old Sharlayan shaped who she is at this current day, no longer was she restricted to conjuring mist to heal, she now looked up to the sky and learned to harness a limitless source of power, manipulating the stars and even fate to favour her endeavours.Mistweaver, Astromancer, Astrologian, Alchemist, Arcanist, she is all of them, an overachiever and master of her art now traveling Eorzea in search of more knowledge, experiences and friendships.
