Ansabryda is a tall, lithe woman, who, at least as far as others tell her, is often considered attractive, despite her reluctance to wear revealing clothing. She dresses in well-tailored outfits, selected from a limited wardrobe -- ranging from heavy scholarly robes and tailored shirts, to heavy armour when preforming field work in especially dangerous areas of Eorzea.
As much as she embarrasses her, Ansabryda's body is muscular and busty as is the norm for Roegadyn women. Her skin is a very light sea-foam green and her eyes are ruby red. Ansabryda's hair is generally kept in some form of short bob.
Personality & Skills
◦ History: Aetheric Researcher
◦ Alignment: Lawful Neutral.
◦ Combat: Red magic, summoning, swordplay, and when necessary classic Roegadyn brute force.
◦ Sexuality: Pansexual, strongly leaning feminine.
Ansabryda is often far quieter or more reserved than people may expect for a sea wolf lady, spending much of her time quietly watching and keeping her thoughts to herself -- at least in public. When engaged with, she can be quite thoughtful, considerate, cunning, or witty, depending on the circumstances, though she tends to come off as slightly condescending.
She is generally uninterested in pointless fighting, though she is perfectly capable of fighting if the situation requires it. When a fight is unavoidable, she prefers to use her skills and wits to her advantage, rather than relying on raw power or strength -- though when the chips are down she's not above resorting to bisecting opponents with a massive greatsword/axe/scythe.
As far as personal relationships go, Ansabryda tends to be very reserved about affection or romance, especially in public, though both conversations about sexuality and teasing or flirting with others come fairly easily to her in most circumstances. If she does tease or flirt with someone, it doesn't mean she has any expectations of them -- she's perfectly content to just enjoy that interaction for its own merits.
Ansabryda prides herself on being much more academic and cerebral than her more "boisterous" kin and this can come off as arrogance. Overall, her particular talents lie much more in intellectual and social pursuits, rather than physical.
Roleplay & Hooks
Any sort of roleplaying is generally welcome, though this comes with some limits or caveats. Ansabryda is not a pushover, nor is she weak or vulnerable. She has her own desires, interests, and skills, which may aid -- or hinder -- in starting interactions with her.
Hooks
[For-Hire] Ansabryda can be hired for any sort of work (including illicit sorts), so long as the job pays out an appropriate amount for the work involved. Physical work will probably also require a non-monetary incentive such as a valuable tome or allagan bauble.
There's very few things she wouldn't consider doing for the right price, and even a scene where she turns one of them down could be quite fun.
[Subterfuge] Ansabryda is often fairly socially adept, and jobs involving some sort of subterfuge or social skills (such as espionage, information gathering, etc.) are particularly interesting, especially if involved with a storyline.
[Academia] There is little that draws Ansabryda's attention more than aetheric phenomena and allagan relics. Conversely there is nothing that draws her ire more than destruction or misuse of those things.
[Acquisitions] As scholar and researcher, Ansabryda retains some contacts in various ports and industries, and runs a small side business making use of those contacts to acquire rare or exotic items, potentially including illegal arcane ones.
[Magic] Ansabryda is not particularly shy about her skills with summoning magic. While she doesn't needlessly show off, the decade and a half she's spent practising has left their mark on her, as well as giving her a fairly solid knowledge base on magic in general.
[IC Approach] An IC approach is generally welcome to just see how characters bounce off each other. Please give something specific for Ansabryda to respond to, even if starting with a fairly short line, when doing this -- she doesn't often go out of her way to approach someone who seems to just be minding their own business.
[OOC Approach] An OOC approach is welcome for questions about a specific sort of scene or storyline.
[Relationships] I am open to the idea but frankly I won't bring it up myself.
Themes
[Mature RP] Adult themes are generally welcome, and will be treated seriously. Adult themes include mental health, violence, death, existential dread, and other such things.
[Immature RP] Comedy and silly scenes and elements are often welcome, Ansabryda will almost certaily end up the straight-man/tsukkomi.
[Dark RP] Scenes involving dark/unpleasant themes should be discussed and consented to, at least in general terms, before starting. Dark themes may include partner abuse, extreme/cruel violence, slavery, and similar. Not my bag normally though.
[Normal Character-driven ERP] If this happens, any erotic scenes must be private and between consenting adults. It would need to make sense for the characters involved, be a logical part of the story, or be otherwise somehow compelling. Additionally, Ansabryda's flirting doesn't necessarily mean she wants or intends to sleep with a character -- often, she just finds it fun for its own sake.
[Random ERP weirdos] I am extremely open minded and I would be willing to play along with pretty much any kink except rape for the right price/reward (I have no idea how I would RP getting raped with any degree of skill)
