BACKSTORY
CHILDHOOD
Yavra was known to be an adventerous youngster, infamous among her friends as someone to know if you wanted to cause some mischief. While the adults of her clan did not appreciate her humour the other children gravitated towards her quickly. Yavra's memory of her childhood are hazy, she remembers waking up one morning to find the clan suddenly feared her. Children who once played with her ignored her, adults who once handed out apples to her turned her away and even her own mother acted distant towards her. Whispers carried through the clan of Yavra holding dangerous magics, too dangerous to let known and as such she was "weakened".TEENAGE YEARS
As Yavra grew older, into her teenage years, she began to become increasingly aware of how others treated her. She was often referred to as "weakened", "controlled" or even "unwitched" and with no knowledge as to why and nobody willing to tell her she began to coduct herself as a loner. Hunting, scouting and even eating by herself. Her relationship with her mother grew to a breaking point, leaving Yavra feeling as if she had no choice but to move out of the hut she shared to live on her own.ADULTHOOD
Yavra was kicked out of her clan for breaking "The Green", a set of strict rules the clan followed. She had been caught in an intimate relationship with an outsider, a Miqo'te woman by the name of Revan Tirel. With no other option, Revan extended an invitation to join her mercenary group which Yavra gladly accepted. Once more there were gaps in her memory. After the calamity that rocked Eorzea Yavra no longer remembered a Revan Tirel, nor the mercenary band she travelled with and thus was forced to seek shelter. She found said shelter in Ishgard where she wandered the alleyways desperate for food and water. She was soon spotted by a male hrothghar by the name of Derome who offered to give her shelter, food and water if she helped him in his medical clinic in the Brume. Derome treated Yavra as his apprentice and the two became platonically inseperable. Unfortunately, her life would be shaken once more when the conflict between Lady Iceheart and the people of Ishgard grew, taking the life of Derome as he bought Yavra time to run for it. She took over the clinic, running it for a time before being noticed by a knight of House Fortempt by the name of Kadan Hornecaunt. While the pair initially detested each other, they grew to work the clinic together, Yavra would heal while Kadan would stand guard. The pair soon became romantically involved before marrying just six months after meeting. Another life was to be stolen from Yavra however as the day after their wedding, Kadan was assasinated in their own home.
HOOKS
Healer
Common
While Yavra no longer runs her clinic in Ishgard she does still help those in need. Had a bad run in with a morble? Yavra will gladly sit and tend to your wounds. Broken bones? Yavra will fashion casts for you. Whatever it is, Yavra will try her best to make you feel better.Ishgardian Citizen
Common
Having sought refuge within Ishgard, Yavra was officially made a citizen for her work in the medical field. She lives within the Empyreum and can be found in Ishgard a lot. Maybe you could bump into her?Nose in a book
Uncommon
Yavra is mostly tucked away in her office looking at her studies into the underworld. However, she is known to take her undead tomes out in public, can you translate her books?Dead Man Walking
Rare
Yavra has the ability to let the dead inhabit and take control of her body. She aims to use this power for good, helping the dead pass by seeking revenge and finishing their business. Have a soul haunting you? Yavra might be your gal. (This one requires some planning so please send a tell and we can organise the storyline.)Hit List
Requires Planning
After the assasination of her husband, Yavra swore to seek revenge on all those responsible. She has a hit list which she plasters across cities in the dead of night. Have you found one of these lists? Do you want to help her seek her targets and bring them to justice? (This requires a lot of planning and the hit list is minimal. Yavra will let you know who her next target is. This is open to be done through writing instead of RP if preferable.)
RELATIONSHIPS
Lorei Fyth
Father
While it is traditional for male Viera to be away from the clan for years and only to return when necessary for reproduction, Yavra's father would still send letters of goodwill to her. He had only seen Yavra in person a handful of times and each time would remind her to make her own life decisions and to follow her heart. It is a shame then that he did not get to see her one last time before she was kicked from the clan.
Song Dewmorn
Boss
As manager of EDGE it is Song's responsibility to keep the venue working and as such Yavra respects him highly. While the pair may not have a lot of time to relax together or converse Yavra still admires all that he does to keep her employed and happy. Plus, as the main DJ, Yavra has always been one to dance to his music.
Eru'a Roossa
Paid Mercenary
What is the best way to describe Eru? While Yavra may not get along with him she did pay him to help her in locating those on her target list and for that, she will be grateful. However, this does not stop Yavra from throwing punches at him. The pair bicker constantly and while Yavra could handle that usually for some reason when it comes from Eru it infuriates her more.
Juno Vhen
Mother
Yavra's mother is a kind-hearted woman who wants nothing more than her daughter to be safe and healthy. However, this desire has led her to become overprotective and as such her relationship with Yavra is now extremely brittle. Rumour has it that Juno had a heavy hand in the decision to "unwitch" Yavra and as such Yavra no longer trusts her. Yavra hasn't had seen her mother in years and doesn't know if she is still alive.
Dayn Hthrana
Close Friend
Yavra has always struggled to make friends, mostly due to her nervous and too bubbly for some nature. However, Dayn became one to work well with Yavra's tendencies. The two work together at the venue EDGE and can often be seen cracking jokes and relaxing together. When Yavra needs someone to calm her down Dayn is always the first in line to aid her.
E'lithas Tamsin
Boss
Yavra respects all her bosses at EDGE but often finds herself bursting with questions for her boss E'lithas. An individual with extraordinary powers, Yavra is always desperate to get to know him better. However, with the pair often busy with their own business, there hasn't been much time for Yavra to ask her burning questions.
Gehenna Nimue
Close Friend
As one of Yavra's closest friends and advisors, Gehenna prides herself on keeping Yavra on the right path. After losing her sister, Gehenna has attached to Yavra quite quickly. While their opinions may clash the pair are undeniably loyal to one another and value each other highly. However, is all as it should be or is Gehenna hiding more than Yavra thinks?
