Eleonore Catriona Merielle
A Witch's Ruby Run Astray
About
Background
During the recovery period that followed the Seventh Umbral Calamity the Merielle family saw a rise to power via dubious means. Backed by a mountain of gold, the family's influence grew at an alarming rate. When their name finds itself mentioned in conversation, it is frequently bracketed between whispers of subterfuge and exploitation.
Raised amidst said wealth, Elyn is a woman who has come to resent her heritage. Despite her lavish childhood, her family's infamy fostered the prime environment for bitterness to fester. She frequently found herself sheltered by privilege; left all alone within the echoing walls of a home she had come to loathe.
Elyn fled from her family in Ul'dah when the opportunity arose; venturing into the wider world with hopes of broadening her limited perspective. The flames of spite have largely dulled since her departure. Even so, Elyn is cautious around the topic of her upbringing.
About
Personality
A wit so sharp she frequently cuts herself with it. Elyn is a balancing act between sarcasm and innocence. Acquaintances would likely speak of her snark, though beyond her teasing words lies a feint sense of frailty and a subdued sweetness.
Despite everything, she seems virtuous.
Elyn is a young woman who is no stranger to self-obsession. Desperate for attention, she is wont to make a scene if it results in her stealing the spotlight of a room. By her mind, both positive and negative attention are equally desirable.
Prodding for a reaction is not beyond her.
Honesty is a word of thin definition for Elyn; truth often a matter amusement rather than integrity. The lies she tells tend to be innocuous and obvious. However, the opaque nature of her fibbing is by no means a reflection of her intelligence.
Not all liars can be measured as fools.

A Wanderer's Paeon
"I gazed out to the world to lose my mind and find my soul."
Elyn has turned to travel and adventure in search of wisdom and truth. She has found herself in various corners of the world amidst her ventures. In turn, friends and acquaintances of all walks of life are waiting to be met. She is far from the image of the typical adventurer and must rely on those stronger than her for her own safety.

An Inherited Blade
"The weight she carried was one forged in burdens."
Elyn carries a regal-yet-weathered longsword bearing an Ishgardian signet. She rarely wears it openly outside of extended travel, but those on the road might chance to spot a dulled glint. Anyone with an eye for swordsmanship would likely note that the blade is in dramatically poor condition and is far too unwieldy for someone of her stature.

The Missing Girl
"No trail laden with gold is free of spilt blood."
Any who spends time in Ul'dah are likely to have heard of the Merielle name. Elyn's family is one that found its claim to power via a mass of gold. Par for the course, with wealth came hefty repute. It's fairly common knowledge that the family's youngest disappeared some time ago. Those in search of coin or favor might consider bringing a lamb back to the flock.

Appearance
Soft features make up the profile of the girl. Deep red hair which lightens the closer it gets to her shoulder contrasts against her cool blue eyes. Two scars bisect both her left brow and the bridge of her nose. Elyn's pale skin is dotted with freckles from crown to heel. She avoids wearing clothing that would draw attention to her bust.
