Aiswyda Nuthalwyn

Pirate out of water

Crystal / Balmung

What if I hate who I was?

Aiswyda woke up on the beaches of Limsa Lominsa, a million holes in her memory. All she had was a letter in her hand.

You are Aiswyda Nuthalwyn. Forge yourself anew, and never look back.

Something terrible had happened - but what? Wandering into town, there were some that recognized her, and helped piece together a foggy image of her past. She had grown up alone on the Northern Empty isles, and at a young age, joined a pirate crew. But there, the trail went cold. No news of where her crew was, or why she couldn't remember anything for herself.

For now, she tries to follow the letter's advice...But a growing curiosity gnaws at her heart. Ais wishes she knew who she was - but fears losing who she is today.

Character Overview

Aiswyda is a Sea Wolf Roegadyn in her mid-twenties. She is a warm person that bumbles through life with an addictive curiosity. However, she uses this friendly exterior to keep others from getting too close. Inside, she is frustrated by her situation, and has a short fuse when things get more personal.

Hooks

Hopeful mentee, hopeless cause
Ais is eager to learn a trade that will get her away from the sea and away from her past - but she's naturally terrible in everything she tries. Perhaps a careful, patient hand could guide her.

Mercenary for hire
To make ends meet, Ais works as a mercenary. She's always willing to lend a hand if it means a cut of the reward. Likewise, she's quick to share a good contract with others, even complete strangers.

Adulting is hard
She doesn't take the best care of herself. Money made is money immediately spent on treating 'friends' in the tavern to drinks. She sleeps on a pile of hay. Someone could whip her back into shape.

Fish whisperer, sailor expert
As an ex-pirate, she has a lot of technical know-how on fishing and sailing. However, she avoids the sea like the plague, so anyone who wants to learn will have to learn on a lake or river...for now.

Sleepwalker
Sometimes, she goes to sleep, and wakes up days in the future in the middle of nowhere. Ais can't control when this happens. Perhaps her body is trying to tell her something...

OOC

Eyo! I'm Nutley. I've been roleplaying on and off for the past 10 years. Nowadays, I'm a game master for DnD and Pathfinder, and have been roleplaying in FF14 for about 2 years now! Anything goes - I'm eager to share stories!

OOC banter and trust is important to me. I always prioritize the human behind the character, and part of that is (very slowly) getting to know you.

I live in the PST time zone, and casually play around 9 to 11 pm on weekdays, and anytime on the weekends. Generally speaking, a lot of my rp happens between 4:30 pm PST to 8:00 pm PST. I pretty much only roleplay in-game, but feel free to ping me on tumblr or Discord (Nutley#8251) to get started!
