Athas Thatcher
Xaelen Au Ra
Formerly of Ishgard by adoption, calls Limsa home now.
She/Her
Age: Somewhere north of 20
Bisexual
A wanderer who washed up in Limsa and found it's jagged edges very welcoming. Holds to a simple creed of ax first ask later.
For all my boisterous claims I have to admit when truly upset the quiet comforts are best. A warm drink, a safe room, a friend relaxing nearby.
#wolqotd Today my tarot deck drew the Queen of Cups, a card of compassion and empathy.

What's the best way to soothe your character when they're upset?
My initial distrust of most of the scions, my blanket distrust of Ishgardian nobility, one particularly ill advised night in Limsa.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

What are some things your wol / oc feels guilty about if anything?
An end to threats within and without on the scale of destroying nations and peoples. Let me fight for its own sake, without loss meaning damnation.
#wolqotd Today my tarot deck drew the Nine of Cups, a card of fulfillment and satisfaction.

What is your character's "good ending"? What would it take for them to be satisfied?
Every time I think I've reached the heights some beast or imperial or ancient spirit or precursor shows up stronger, and I am compelled to redouble my efforts.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

Is your wol / oc actively trying to improve themselves, or do they think they are fine as is?
Excellent way to buy some time if you are running late, let someone announce all of your titles while you stroll in.
I've been told I can be attractive but much like finery and magic my attempts to intentionally do so always seem to fall flat.
A #wolqotd because I'm bored on the train (probs one that's been asked before too)

How attractive is your WoL? Do people see them as being conventionally attractive, are they average or not attractive at all?
I try to remain respectful of those enjoying. Besides its no fun hurling fruit at an image that can't react. But there are some shows that get rowdy. And I'll dare anyone to match me at those.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

What would your wol / oc be like in a movie theater? (Bringing in snacks in their pockets / purse, texting during the movie, quiet and respectful, etc)
If I'm trying to get the upper hand by flaunting convention I stick to Athas, only the truly powerful walk in with no title. If I'm trying for a traditional diplomatic route it's Lieutenant Thatcher. Anything else is held for emergencies.
#wolqotd

When at a very formal event what title/styles of address/names does your WoL/OC use?
#wolqotd

When at a very formal event what title/styles of address/names does your WoL/OC use?
I... fully admit that I have no ideas here and would likely ask others for opinions and assistance.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
What would your wol(oc) dress up as for All Saints Wake?
The axe was taken directly from the Ishgardian church armory under cover of night.

House Fortemps is missing a bottle of the good wine.

I once conducted a prolonged campaign of graffiti work across the three cities.
Hello #wolqotd I would like to play a game. I want you to tell me two lies and one truth about your WoL/OC.

The category is "Things that would get them sent to gaol if the authorities ever found out".
Good company demands good food and good drink.
#wolqotd Today my tarot deck drew the Three of Cups, a card of friendship and celebration.

How does your character prefer to spend time with their friends?
I didn't spend time as a privateer to *not* fall for it and then try to fight my way back to the surface.
#wolq #wolquestion
is your wol/oc falling for the mermaid bait? will they have to be dragged up off the ocean floor?
The warrior laughed and upended the entire bag of chalk dust onto the red mage, turning her white.
"And that, little one, is where my axe will strike you!"

Never did puzzle out why dad laughed so much when he told that anecdote.
A red mage and a warrior once met for a duel, each eager to prove their skill. The red mage dusted her finger with chalk and drew an X on a small join in the breastplate of the warrior. "That is where my rapier will plunge into your heart." She said smugly. 1/2
Reach the homeland, find a place i feel comfortable in my skin, and find some place to be after all this is done.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
What is something your wol(oc) wants to achieve?
T'asir's the boss. She says go I go. But these days we often seem to run in different circles. So hardly some deep connection in our lives. But It's there, and no idea what waits in the future.
How connected is your WOL/OCs story to another player's WOL/OC? #wolqotd
I was raised by remote Ishgardian farmers. We were lucky to rarely want for food but much else was a gamble. I spend freely, what use is money if you aren't spending it? And if that means a few hungry nights I'll manage.
#wolqotd Today my tarot deck drew the Four of Pentacles, a card with two meanings: stability and security, or greed and possessiveness.

When your character was growing up, how financially stable was their home environment? How has that impacted how they handle money today?
Left handed. Though I wasn't informed of it until some trouble on the farm as a kid.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

Is your wol / oc left-handed, right-handed, or ambidextrous?
Nearly any time I'm not actively on some gods forsaken mission and find myself near a tavern with friends. Or enemies. Usually results in some combination of drunk and disorderly, brawling, and a few times public nudity.
#wolquestion / #wolqotd

How often does your wol / oc find themselves drunk? What normally happens if they get like that?
If I don't...someone else will. Someone less likely to come back.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
What pushes your wol(oc) to keep going?
Judging by my track record... poorly.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
How does your wol(oc) flirt?
It bears repeating how much post processing really goes into bringing work to life. Without @tasirfortemps.etheirys.social working diligently for Halone knows how long it's no shield. It's a sketch, raw material, a suggestion.

Now to make one for myself.
