Hi there, I'm Sav! I am non-binary and use they/them pronouns, so please use those when referring to myself OOC, regardless of what you may see others use.I'm returning to the RP scene after taking a few years off, and I'm excited to see what I can get Sarina into these days. Feel free to approach me if I have my RP tag on in game, or if we've met before then you're more than welcome to just stop and say hi. I also own the character Your Problem on Brynhildr, and you are free to interact with me OOC on there as well. Please do not ask me for RP when I am on that character, however.I'm more than welcome to developing friendships outside of RP, however I am happily in a relationship and am NOT looking for anything of that nature OOC. This ties in with my #1 rule, but please do not conflate our character interactions with OOC feelings in any scenario.

but also a familiar burden.

  personality.     Sarina is very personable, and strives to be a light in the lives of those she knows. She cares for her friends and companions to a fault, as she will often put the needs of others before her own. She will do her best to help someone given the opportunity, but will also acknowledge when she or someone she knows is out of their element.
She is wiser to the world than when she had first arrived in Eorzea, but she can still be caught unawares and taken advantage of because of her kind and trusting nature.Sarina is by no means a quiet person, despite the calming aura she has been told she exudes, and loves to interact with passerby and acquaintances while carrying out her daily tasks. She also likes to partake in the nightlife of cities that she travels to, and often tries to employ things she has observed from venue to venue to strike up conversation. Whether it be a cocktail she's tried, or a particularly interesting speakeasy she's visited, she can make a conversation out of most things with a stranger.

botany. Sarina has devoted her life to the study of botany, it's principles meshing with her previous life in the Golmore Jungle seamlessly.
alchemy. While a pacifist now, Sarina still looks for ways to aid those who find themselves in physical danger more times than not. Her knowledge of flora and fauna have aided her studies in the alchemical over the years, and she takes pride that she can provide a service for those in need.
archery. Sarina was well-versed in the ways of the bow and arrow, though now she does not pick up the weapon unless an absolute necessity. While not as good as she once was, she is still capable of defending herself from any rare danger she may face.

do not shy away from it.

history.

LORE : origin .

Born in the Golmore Jungle, Sarina lived the first two decades of her life in the shade of trees that most men have not seen. She was content with sticking to tradition - aiding her village in sustaining itself and the jungle around it, and had only passing daydreams about life outside of it's boughs. Once the whispers of Garlean invasion made its way through the region, however, the trajectory of her life would be undefiably altered.After an unfortunate skirmish towards the beginning of the empire occupying the region, Sarina thought she had witnessed her brother fall at the hands of the enemy. Knowing there was little she could do, she made her escape, evading small contingents through the jungle and to Rabanastre.Not occupied just yet by Garlean forces, the hub city was the perfect place to find a willing sailor to shepard her away from the fighting before things escalated further, burdend with the knowledge she could not help the forest or her fallen brother. She hesitated for only a moment before buying passage on a ship headed to Eorzea at the behest of the kind captain that heard her plight.

Currently, Sarina has made her home and life under new boughs, with life in Gridania providing an environment close enough to home that she has come to love. Her past has left her a pacifist, focusing soley on non-violent means to make her way through the world. Events in past years with the Garleans trying to occupy Eorzea had made her nervous however, her bow and arrows still within reach should the need arise.Her love for botany has flourished in the decades that she has resided in the Twelveswood, and she is a staple in the Botanist's Guild in Gridania. Her dealings have lead her to explore more of Eorzea as a whole and even further, though she shies away from returning to the shores of her home to this day.Even now, Sarina finds beauty in the diversity of Eorzea, a staunch contrast to what she had experienced in her younger life in the jungle. The fleeting thoughts she had back then were no indicator of what she experiences now, and she makes a point of finding the beauty in a larger, interwoven society.
