About

Being taken in by a well-off but humble Gridanian couple allowed Motte's passion for life to be established at a young age. Her mother, a botanist, instilled in Motte a deep fondness for, not just flora and fauna in The Shroud, but even those that exist outside of it while her father, a merchant, stressed the importance of knowledge and learning, no matter the cost. When she was 10, a fated trip to Ul'dah with her father lead Motte to discover alchemy which then lead to a bout of obsessive studying that lasted well throughout her teenage years. Her understanding of the science and her aspiration to maintain a symbiosis with the nature around her prompted Motte to combine both passions of alchemy and botany. Nowadays, she makes plant-based potions for any who ask (and those who don't), insisting that their natural properties not only heal the mind, body, and soul but can awaken a person's true potential.

Hooks & more

Open Hooks

  • Alchemist looking for work: Unable to find the concoction you need? Motte is willing to make it for the right price. Flyers advertising her services are left in The Drowning Wench, The Roost and The Forgotten Knight when she has the opportunity.

  • Novice Arcanist: Motte has recently taken up studies of the arcane arts as a hobby and will train her carbuncle in the open.

  • Out Foraging: Her occasional return to Gridania is usually spent in The Shroud, restocking materials and reagents for her potions. (For more dangerous trips, Motte will seek out mercenaries to protect or assist her)

  • If you have any other ideas, please DM me. I'd love to hear them.

Closed Hooks(Please DM me first):

  • Childhood Friend: Self-explanatory.

  • Business Associate: Her father is a successful merchant through out The Shroud and Uldah. His willingness to sell wares of many sorts has gained him and his family all kinds of notoriety. Though Motte is a stranger to the majority of her father's partners and patrons, there are a few who do know her.

  • Alchemist's Guild: Does your character know her from the guild? Or maybe they studied together.

Facts, Quirks and Habits

  • She will wring her hands when she's overly nervous.

  • Motte has taken a liking to seedkin of all kinds, but namely morbols.

  • She is a hugger. If there is any reason at all to grant someone an embrace, Motte will act on it.

  • Motte feels that plants are here not just to heal the body and mind, but that they are a key to the evolution of a person's consciousness.

  • Motte speaks to plants as if they'll speak back.

  • Motte wears gloves whenever she's around others.

  • Motte is a bibliophile.

  • Motte has a skewed but strong sense of justice. She feels those practicing whatever fits in her view of "evil" should be punished somehow.

  • She has access to both a great deal of wealth and a large web of connections (thanks to her parents) that she will not hesitate to use if needed.

OOC

Introduction and Availability:

Hellaur, I go by Totokii and I have been playing FFXIV on Mateus for four years now. I am a casual RPer that prefers medium RP. My timezone is EST and I'm free after 5:30pm on weekdays (except Tuesday) and all day during the weekend.

Rules and Expectations:

  • Must be over 18.

  • Please be respectful.

  • IC is not OOC. Please know the difference.

  • Please be open to communication.

  • Please don't force the interaction if it's clearly not working out. Not every character is going to mix. It happens.

What I'm looking for:

At the moment, I am looking for connections for Motte. These include:

  • Friends (open, secret and unlikely~)

  • Enemies

  • "Frienemies"

  • Role models

  • Confidants

  • Teacher

  • Etc! (DM me with any ideas)

--Please know that while Motte is affectionate, she is currently not romantically inclined. This doesn't mean she can't be romanced, but it certainly isn't the first thing on her mind. If it does come up, it needs to have a natural progression and I prefer slowburn.

--I know that Eorzea is not perfect and has its fair share of crime and misery. With that in mind, I do not mind dark and mature themes in RP but please, DM me your suggestions first. With the exception of the latter two in the list below, it can be discussed. Worst case scenario? I turn you down.

What I am not looking for:

  • WOL RP

  • Realm travelers

  • AU/non-lore compliant/ lore bending RP

  • Godmodding

  • Metagaming

  • Purposeless ERP (I cannot stress this enough. ERP will be situational at best. Do not contact me with the sole intent to ERP or expect to ERP after a few RP sessions)

  • Dismemberment

  • Death of the character
