✦ Personality

All the world is a stage, and to the world she is mercurial creature. Having a talent for reading people and situations, she frequently will glean things from those around her that allows her to adapt her personality and persona just enough to find common ground and interest. She gives a show of warm smiles and playful chaos, to the point this persona has become a defense mechanism to hide the self she thought she left behind. And if one can ever get her talking of her past it is so very often greeted with deflection. Claiming the woman she once was had to make way for the insanity she is now.She has an inquisitive mind, often going well out of her way to learn more about the places and cultures around her. All to often forcing her to act recklessly to unearth the next find.

✦ The Past

“How could you Hasul?” Cried out as her spear quickly spun up narrowly deflecting the sword strike aimed at her head.“How could I? HOW COULD THEY ZALRA!?” The rage that spat with each word was chilling to the bone. “You know this better than any! You who stand vigil for us, you who guard the simpering crones that run this tribe. And you dare ask me Vakt Zalra, how could I?”Hearing that sneer in her voice when using her title fueled Zalra with anger. Turning the spear over, taking it with both hands and used the space between them to shove forward, thrusting all her strength to push Hasul back, forcing her to stagger several steps in retreat.“They are our people, Viera we grew up with! Lovers, mothers, sisters! Who is next? Who would you sell out next just to gain more power!? Nisa? Me? You would just trade us away into slavery, so you can have what? You are already next in line to rule!”The distance between them now remained, Hasul’s sword arm coming down to point the tip of the blade at the ground. Motionless except what it took for her to continue breathing and speaking.“Just one more Zal…then we can all be free. Free of the elders, free of the Green Word. We can open our borders and be a part of the world Zal!” Hasul spoke not with anger or malice, but with hope.A hope that she could convince her lifelong friend to see her side of things. Hope that she could get the Warden to lay down her spear. For a brief second, she thought she succeeded. Hasul watched the towering Viera shove the tip of her spear into the ground before her and released that ancient weapon completely.Zalra’s heart ached, the pain that seared through her was nothing like she had ever known. Listening to her friend and sister, to the only creature that meant more to her then her own life. Though none of this showed on the stoic Warden’s face, refusing to let anyone see just how shattered she truly was. Zalra stepped around her spear moving towards Hasul, arms lifting to stretch out before her, pushing her wrist together in surrender.“It will not be them. You will show me your convictions, you WILL show me how dedicated to your vaunted cause you are. Come.” She taunted with the last. “I willingly march as the last you need to fill your bargain.”A scream like no other rang through the forest, rage and heart break filled every second of the shrieking…


Truth is not what you want it to be; it is what it is and you must bend to its power or live a lie.


✦ Quick and Notable

■ A small pendant with the symbol of Halone is often in sight, and always present. It is a simple silver disc with three spears embossed upon it, though clean it is showing signs of its age.

■ Her hands are always covered, especially the palms of her hands. Through gloves or other types of wrappings, even some that look close to her skintone are constantly worn.


✦ Easy Story Hooks

■ She owns an inn within Ishgard called the Drunken Duck, a warm place for a simple conversation or a place to stay. Business with suppliers and other trade workers to help build or rebuild things. Plenty of opportunities for meetings and greetings.■ A ten-year career in the entertainment field, acting, singing, but mostly dance. Giving her a comfortable life and some notability. Though she has not been on stage in a very long time.

■ Some things are hard to change, despite her impulsive ways a good cause will always inspire Echo to give aid. Acting as a guard, helping a caravan get escorted, fetching items, or just beating down those harming others.■ She is a woman that wears many hats and does many things. Not because she is good at all of them, in fact she fails quite often, but she does this because she wants to discover something new either about the world, or herself.


✦ In-depth Story Hooks

■ Cause and effect, the movement of the star and the events within have cause still disgruntled citizens of Ishgard to act out. Former cultist seeking to regain their path to power through any means necessary. And she has been trying to hunt them down and bring them in where she can. (Medium to hard adventure hook)■ Formidable in the enough to rival even the veteran dragoon, never claims the title or request to join them. However, she is always happy to befriend and share knowledge. (Light to medium hook.)

■ After years of separation the dragoons that befriended Echo were finally due to meet again when Ishgard finally opened their doors to the world again. Sadly, it was at the meeting of those few left behind she discovered the one she longed to see the most had died just after the wars end under strange circumstances. (Rare hook, please discuss before approach.)■ Wandering spirit, a road less traveled, a new mystery to unfold, new discoveries on the horizon. These are the things Echo is most passionate about. So if you have ideas, want to work something out, or would like for her to share your story please just reach out.

■ My writing style is adaptive, and tailored to the scene, the location, and the people I am writing with. I believe quality is far better and will earn better results. (Quantity is not quality!)■ I ask that all role players who seek a longer-term connection with my character be at least 21 years of age.■ I enjoy all themes and forms of roleplay, from conflict, to soft slice of life, romance, and well into the dark and grim. Above all else I like character building. Things such as maiming, serious injury, and death are to be discussed first.■ I am a capable storyteller, fantastic at being a supporting role, and a capable dm. I am happy to share these things and build with you. However remember it is a two way street, and I do not want to be the ONLY one doing the work or reaching out.■ No lore breaking. I understand some of the lore in areas is vague, and requires a little lore bending! However, straight up breaking the lore is a huge no from me.

■ No god modding, or overpowered characters. WOLs are fine, but I’d ask you not go overboard with it.■ Please keep in mind, I am not my character, her thoughts, her actions, and her words are her own and do not reflect how I feel. That being said I am not a complete ass, if there are topics and such you are truly traumatized by, please discuss it with me. Or better yet, talk it over with the character, she might learn from it.■ Happy to give my mare code out for RP reasons. However, I'm sorry ya'll, I am, but some animations and mods are just...a little much for me. And some I find a little to far in the lore breaking territory. No judgement, just not for me. So note I will unpair, or pause you depending!■ Yes, I have discord, no I don't mind RP there. But I will give it out when I am ready. Please respect this.
