Rynathan, usually just Ryn to acquaintances, is a fair skinned and habitually overdressed Seeker, 'retired' Rogue of Limsa Lominsa, and active member of the Ironclaw Order. With little recollection of his years before three years ago, he has shifted careers from full time Limsan dimber-dabber to struggling fighter amongst the Ironclaw Order. He's the sort to poke his nose into the cards others hold without revealing his own, and his aloof relationships with people have earned him as much ire as it has friendship. A romantic realist at heart, Ryn struggles with the more pragmatic practices of an Alliance at war and the nature of the Ironclaw Order's activities.
The runt of her clan, Wendy stands at five fulms and one ilm- and that’s in her shoes. The others of the ‘Sirens of the Shroud’ boast an imposing, strong, and athletic figure, whereas Wendy is small, scrawny, and with a consistency compared to mochi. Though she tried with her all to achieve the same physical prowess as the other females in her family, it seems it is just not in Wendy’s genetics. A trait, the other woman claimed, must be from her father.
In addition to her diminutive size, Wendy has an unusual coloration for a Keeper of the Moon. Her skin is fair, but peach rather than of darker tones or ivory undertones found in most other Keepers. While her preferred, and favorite, hair color is blonde highlighted in pink, her natural hair color is a snowy white- another anomaly among her clan. Her eyes are big, bright, and blue. They seem to take in everything at once and are windows into her emotional state. Between her expressive ears, tail, and eyes, Wendy cannot hide what she is feeling and in some cases thinking.
It is not uncommon to see Wendy’s hair in a rainbow of colors. Due to her profession, she frequently changes its style and color via glamours. Typically, she prefers to wear it in blonde and pink curls.
Scars & Markings: Ryn has two sets of tattoos to note; the pair of aquamarine lines on either cheek, and an arcane seal carefully inscribed into the base of his neck, on what appears to be Xaelic-make to those familiar with the region. As for scars, his body is a tapestry of them, ranging from a gouge across the right side of his forehead, to the many lines and blotches of blades and burns, to almost geometric flecks that cover both of his forearms in inconsistent density. His face carries nicks here and there, and his nose looks like it has been broken at least twice in a row at some point.
Voice: Ryn's voice is a mixture of Gridanian eloquence and Limsan cant, the latter of which could be described as 'caustic' or 'unintelligible'. When he isn't trying so blatantly to sound like he should be a pirate, his voice is fair enough.
Ryn's English Voice (Speaking): TBA
Clothing: Ryn's never one to underdress in public. His clothing veers away from typical miqo'te comfort in favor of leathers, vests, thigh boots, and long gloves, and his 'wandering gear' of choice favors oranges and chocolate browns. He has been seen in a light mail armor from time to time, though with not as much consistency as some of his fellows in the Order. But no matter what he wears, he is never seen without at least one gobbiebag stowed on his person.

Western Zodiac: Pisces
Eastern Zodiac: Rabbit
In addition to ‘hearing’ the aether’s song, Wendy can also carry her side of the conversation by singing. Wendy possesses a rare soulstone passed down through her clan, a songstress soulstone. Like a bard, Wendy is able to manipulate aether to her will via music- in this case, her voice. However, her abilities extend beyond a songstress’ typical arsenal. Incantations written into songs of an ancient and forgotten language come to Wendy naturally from the voice of aether, and she has the ability to use them to commune directly with the aetherical sea. In order to open direct communication, Wendy must be in a place of a high concentration of aether. If the occasion calls, she can serve as a medium for translation- however she can only do this for a short duration of time. Passively, she has become a mouthpiece for the aether for the Ironclaws or serves as a battle songstress, boosting allies in the heat of the battlefield.
Outside of her aetherical abilities, Wendy is a talented vocalist whose register sits in the soprano range. What she may be vocally best known for is her ability to tackle whistle notes and maintain high energy during even the most rigorous dance routines. Wendy, along with the other members of WYNG, is one of the lyricists and composers for the pop group’s music. Aside from her voice, instruments she is familiar with are the piano, drums, and pianica.
Domestically, Wendy is a skilled pâtissière who works part time at Kupocakes Patisserie. While she is able to cook a wide variety of dishes, she has an affinity for delicate cakes and breads. If you ask her why, she will tell you because she also enjoys eating them the best. Wendy is also excellent at handicrafts like sewing and jewelry making. She is, however, horrendous at organization is best described as ‘messy’.
"Meet me under shining lights, I've been waiting right here all my life...".
"And when the weight is like a million ponze, I'll stand behind you...".
"Even in the dark we shine, with fire and gold in our eyes...".
"Don't worry, it's safe right here in my arms...".
"Sometimes, I think we're the brightest stars..."
"Chosen by destiny, the Northern Star burns..."
" Don't keep me guessing. I've been waiting on standby..."
"Tried hide it, fake it, I can't pretend anymore..."
"Your love's worth saving, darling..."
"Would you rise up, come and meet me in the sky?"
"Anywhere, whenever. Apart but still together..."
"Under the bright but faded lights, you set my heart on fire..."
"When the sun came up, you were looking at me..."
"If we're reborn, we'll meet again someday..."
"Aimo Aimo ne de rusche..."
"The heart has its secret current, deep and without guide..."

- ■ "Why does she still work at that bakery? What is she spending all her money on?"
- ■ "I saw Wendy and Ser Gemini Argent sharing a hot cocoa! Are they a thing now?!" Ishgardian teenager.
- ■ "She's sweet, but dumb as a sack of rocks." Former co-worker at Eorzea Travel Agency.
- ■ "Everyone thinks her first performance was when she got into WYNG. Actually, Wendy was in a theatre production of I Want To Be Your Canary first, but I heard it got cancelled." A fan.
- ■ "That girl, huh? I remember when she used to tour guide here. She used to hand out whistles to the group. Wonder what they were for." Limsa dock worker.
- ■ " I heard she speaks fluent moogle." A fan.
- ■ "When you're lost in the dark, let music light your way." Wendy's trademark quote.
- ■ "Blonde? Pfft. Her hair isn't naturally blonde. She dyes it." A die-hard fan.

- ■ "Don't touch the button." Most of the Ironclaws to Wendy.
There is a hunter’s myth, that deep in the thickest part of the Eastern Shroud, reside mystical creatures who hunt beast and man alike by luring them out and entrancing them with a beautiful song. The tale cautions lone hunters from venturing too far into the bramble alone. They call the creatures these hypnotizing voices belong to, The Sirens of the Shroud.
The truth of the myth comes from a very real clan of Keepers who have made their home in the deepest parts of The Shroud. The predominantly female clan are indeed fierce hunters, but Spoken are not part of their diets. The clan possesses a unique ability to manipulate aether with their voices through song to calm their prey, and can sometimes be heard by passing hunters. The clan holds a very close relationship with aether, and believes they must come to the aether’s call in exchange for their gift. When in need, the aether will call upon one of their daughters. This chosen daughter bears the responsibility of fulfilling the aether’s will as their first matriarch did years and years ago. In order to do this, the chosen daughter will inherit the first matriarch’s soulstone- which only she will have the ability to understand. For the Sirens of The Shroud, this is the highest calling.
Wendy is the youngest of seven sisters born to the clan’s current matriarch, Chez. Wendy is the only daughter to be born of a different father- a traveller from a far away land. While she is the youngest, she is also the smallest and unlike the rest of her family in appearance. This caused Wendy a great deal of trouble in her youth. Often outrun and left behind by her sisters, or crowded out of gatherings, Wendy spent much of her childhood excluded. In addition to what was already setting her apart from her sisters, Wendy also developed the unique ability to ‘hear’ aether at a young age. This strange gift made socializing difficult for the young miqo’te, and further alienated her from the clan. Despite being physically less capable than the other daughters, Wendy often explored The Shroud on her own and did her best to make her own fun.
During one of her adventures in the woods, she came across a young moogle tampering with a small void fissure. Curious about the creature, and somehow able to communicate with him, Wendy joined the peculiar investigation. When the fissure tore wider, and voidkin began to cross through, Wendy saved the young moogle and the two escaped the danger. The moogle showed Wendy to the leader of the Shroud moogles, who granted Wendy one wish in gratitude for saving his son. Wendy’s wish was only for the friendship of the moogles. Touched by the girl’s request, the moogles in the Shroud granted her bloodsworn status and consider her to be a princess of kindness and heart. A lifelong friendship was forged.
No longer alone, Wendy spent her days with her new friends, unbeknownst to her that another party had taken interest in the peculiar Keeper. The clever voidkin, who had opened the fissure, kept a careful eye on the young miqo’te, seeing potential in her abilities. When the time was right, the voidkin made himself known to Wendy. Fooling the child, he befriended her, and introduced himself as Calcifer, then began to guide the development of her gift. It wasn’t long before Wendy’s family caught on to the voidkin’s presence and drove him away. Wendy would not see Calcifer again for many years.
Just after the Battle of Carteneau, the aether called to the Sirens of the Shroud. The balance of light and dark was shifting. Each daughter was presented with the soulstone until the aether chose. It chose Wendy.
After receiving the soulstone, Wendy’s clan life improved somewhat, though she had long since come to feel out of place. While her duty weighed heavily on her, she also longed to use her voice for more than communication with the aether. She longed to use her voice to move people. She wanted to write music and perform it. This seemed impossible…
Until, one day while singing to the aether, Wendy was given a task. The aether told her to find a warrior with a light inside, and to help grow that light and to strengthen it. Wendy decided that if she was to fulfill her calling, she would need to venture out of The Shroud- and it wouldn’t hurt to pursue her own dreams at the same time!
Her clan gave her blessing to set forth on her journey to see to the aether’s will with the understanding she would return when the task had been done. Afterall, she held a great responsibility to her family as well. Eager and excited, Wendy embarked on her grandest adventure yet.
Wendy soon discovered what made the world outside of The Shroud revolve. Money. Needing a place to stay and a way to get by, Wendy took a job with the Eorzean Travel Agency as a tour guide. She worked primarily out of Linsa Lominsa, but guided tours in all three major Eorzean cities. While not exactly her calling or dream job, Wendy worked hard in hopes she'd be scouted by a talent agency.
With the travel agency, Wendy was often stuck with the tasks the senior guides couldn't be bothered with. It wasn't uncommon for her to be asked to deliver leaflets between cities or work the under booked tours. It seemed she was again the black sheep of her peers. Despite her friendly and outgoing personality, Wendy still had trouble making friends and was criticized by the other tour guides as 'dumb’. While the treatment hurt, Wendy did not lose heart!
Her persistence to stay positive won her a friend in Khidyr Dotharl who soon became Wendy’s first roommate. The two girls with strikingly opposite demeanor somehow found a common ground in which an alliance of the strongest friendship was formed- and so the Bestie bond was forged.
Shortly after meeting Khidyr, Wendy was offered a part in the classic theatre production, I Want To Be Your Canary. Little did Wendy know she was being used for her voice’s unique effects. Word about hypnotized audiences and missing coin purses soon caught the attention of The Ironclaws who began an investigation. Their leads led them to Wendy whom they discovered was being fooled by a pair of con artists! The Ironclaws stopped the operation and took Wendy in as a ward to prevent others from using her gifts for nefarious deeds.
It was shortly after this that Wendy answered an audition call for a new all female songstress group under the Shooting Star Eorzean Talent Agency. The audition introduced her to two of her bandmates of WYNG, Y’zhara and Gwen. WYNG was formed shortly before The Rising tribute, and debuted their first performance at the ceremony. Now, her dream on the right track, Wendy quit the Eorzean Travel Agency to turn her focus to her new responsibilities as a professional songstress.

Stances on RP: I am probably a medium-heavy rper, and can jump in character upon request. Across the board I do not ERP, and for Wendy's purposes I also do not RP over the top gruesome scenes. PG-13! I value OOC communication when it comes to planning things, so please DO ask me questions or make suggestions for ideas.
Hooks and relationships: Wendy can be just about anywhere, so if you'd like to rp, worry not! Wendy will do the heavy lifting for the when,where, and how. She has zero issue with pulling a stranger into an adventure. The biggest hook for Wendy would obviously be music or performing. HOWEVER- she's got a lot more going on than just that, so if you're a big aetherical mess... Well come on over! But really... if you want to rp with Wendy, I encourage you to just walk up to her, or whisper me if I'm on and ask where Wendy is. It's very easy to get involved with Wendy, I promise.
RP combat and injuries: It all depends on the situation. Serious injuries I reserve the right to decide for Wendy- and I will be upfront here, I stray away from any serious injuries due to needing the ability to perform sometimes last minute. Sorry =(. BUT, I am a strong advocate of making the most of a scene, so I won't let you down!I can roll or not roll, I am fine with either.
Miscellaneous: Wiki page is pure OOC knowledge unless your character specifically knows or learned about it.
Important! If anything that my character does or says unsettles you in an OOC manner, or if suddenly you are not okay with something in my RP, please let me know right away! Communication is key!
Player Info: NA player, PST. Usually available between 5:30PM and 9:30 PM (usually later, but I try not to start anything time consuming after this point) in the week, or most of the afternoon and evening on the week end.
