Yanno, sadly, Siobhain is far more shaped by her weaknesses thus far than her strengths, I think.
Since starting the Grindstone, she's encountered several Miqo'te. She has a particular weakness for their ears and tails which manifests in, sometimes, an inability to speak or really... angry... glowering. She tends to make darker and darker expressions while she tries to contain herself and at two points she's stalked off from a group of Miqo'te that congregated too close to her.
Though, after prolonged exposure to the rather rowdy ones in the linkshell, she's slowly becoming more and more acclimated. She just doesn't want to touch any of them.
Also, after enduring some many, many rather derisive comments from others over a long period of time about her manner of conducting herself ('being overly sensitive and concerned for others as well as religious'), she tends to take those who present themselves as noble, pious individuals at face-value, assuming that they -must- be devout simply because they say that they are. Those few people will likely be the ones she holds in higher regard, and while she doesn't often defend herself against the jaded verbal onslaught, she may or may not be more protective of them. I'm really eager to see how those conversations play out!
And finally, despite the skill level I intended for her to have, she's lost two matches. One was in a 2 v 2 where she was caught off guard by a Pugilist who virtually attacked her under a Lancer's arm and knocked her down. (And the Pugilist ended up getting conked in the forehead with her peace-bound sword) In the other fight, she ended up distracted by shouting at her brother who was harassing a pair of Miqo'te and the distraction was taken well advantage of by her opponent. In a rush to get away from him, she slipped (after a recent drizzle in Thanalan that turned the dust and sand collected on the stone bridge too slick) and sprained her ankle, as well as caught her opponent in the side of the leg with her sword, nearly toppling him as well.
And not to mention her slight naivety will likely still extend to Plainsfolk Lalafell, if not Dunesfolk as well. Yet to meet one ICly but really hoping for it.
So I think Siobhain has plenty of weaknesses. Perhaps -too- many.
