Rin's Tale

Rin was born to a small community of Moonkeeper Miqo'te in the Black Shroud, however, she's been surrounded by an uncanny misfortune her entire life. She was only six when she and her brother were kidnapped by a strange group of men during a pretend hunt one night.The two were quickly separated and she'd found herself in the arid region of Thanalan when a mysterious stranger confronted the men. A fight ensued, in which the stranger easily won, freeing the kidnapped children and seeing to it that they found new homes.Rin was placed under the care of U'odh Nunh and the U-Tribe in the Forgotten Spring and given the name U'rin. She mostly kept to herself whilst with the U-Tribe, often being teased for her name, her terrible fortune, and her nocturnal habits, but she never took it to heart. She spent her time hunting alone within the Sagolii Desert, much to the Nunh's chagrin.Upon coming of age - and with U'odh's blessing - Rin made the decision to leave the Forgotten Springs and set out for Ul'dah in hopes of becoming an adventurer and experiencing all that life has to offer instead of joining the U-harem.

OOC

❀ My name is Lan, I'm 21+ and from the U.S. I've been a fan of video games and Final Fantasy for as long as I can remember!❀ Thank you for reading Rin's card! Rin began as a character I made for a D&D campaign when I was younger and has been adapted to fit various media, so the character is very dear to me!❀ I have an adaptive writing style, though I tend to shoot for longer posts in one-on-one roleplay and shorter posts during group roleplay!❀ [Timezone - EST] I mostly play during the evenings or late night/early morning, though it is not entirely uncommon to see me online during the day either!❀ In-character relationships and mature themes are welcome, however they must feel authentic to the story we are writing. I am not interested in simple ERP, as that is NOT Rin's character. I enjoy a slow burn!❀ OOC and IC are not the same, nor should they ever be treated as such! We are writing a story together, and my character's feelings or actions do not represent my own! I am not looking for a relationship! Please keep this in mind and respect boundaries!❀ If you have any concerns about our RP content or anything else in our interactions, make it known clearly! I'm very open-minded and want to make sure everyone is comfortable!❀ With all that said, I am always happy to make new friends, so feel free to reach out! Ask for my Discord! Let's have a great time!
