Character: [OU] "Ellie" is the name she goes by.
Canon: Quest for Glory
Info: Ellie was the leader of a gang of well-organized brigands where she comes from, and isn't quite sure what to make of being called to this place as a 'hero of light.' Right now she's feeling out the world and the heroes, and so far, she's not that impressed with the situation. (Just as planned.) She's of average height, well-versed with knives, swords, and bows, and hails from the fantasy equivalent of Germany so she's got a similar accent. I just don't bother typing it out because it annoys me.
Job(s): Thief/Archer. Warrior is up next!
Housing: B-11 with Albel, Yugi, and Tsubomi
Other Housing: None yet, but she'll probably pack up and live in another city and/or make a secret fort somewhere in a thickly wooded area once she gets herself settled with some brigands.
Moogle: Kupozen. He's friendly, gentlemanly, and secretly a conniving little monster. But he's totally your pal, what can he help you with? :D
Status: Right now Ellie is just getting settled. She's trying to learn more about the world, its inhabitants, political situations, and opportunities. She's neutral about the idea of being a 'hero' but given that it would be suicide to support the growth of the cataclysm, she'd really prefer to avoid that. As for the rest of the heroes, she has no love for those who don't seem to take their calling seriously or dedicate themselves full-time toward the threat of having an entire world destroyed. Ellie is judging you. But she wants to get involved, if anything just to better educate herself on what's going on, and she will absolutely get a job done. She just has other goals...like becoming The Brigand Leader as a secret secondary identity, and attempting to wrest political power away from those she believes to be incompetent or unworthy.
Employment: Nothing official, but she'll slay monsters for fun and profit and fulfill quests. She's also conducting business away from the public eye by establishing relations with various merchants (of favorable and ill repute both).
Plans: I HAVE SO MANY PLANS! I hesitate to list them all for fear of some people metagaming in order to have their character 'win a scene' but Ellie is going to be an antagonist, hopefully one that has enough power and influence to create some great plots for you guys. As such, any opportunity that allows her to gather resources, personnel, connections, and allies is right up my alley. I want to plan with YOU! What kind of situation would you like for your character? I don't mind being foiled, and I don't mind being evil (though some acts she likely wouldn't withstand personally, so I can NPC it through someone under her employ if that's the case). Please don't be shy about discussing plots and what you'd like to do, I'll do my best to make it happen and make it fun.
Desired CR: The thing I want most are allies that she can legitimately trust. I don't need moles or backstabbers just yet (I'll allow them later once she's established), so if your character wants to do less than savory things for whatever reason, they can either form an alliance, or even work with/for her. If you want her to do something evil, she can form false friendships as well, since she does want to build up trust and a shining reputation as a dedicated and competent hero.
Undesired Things: People who immediately expose her before I have a chance to do anything plotworthy uuuuuuuuuuugh. She doesn't need to be humiliated or put in her place either, not if she's going to be taken seriously at some point. The more effective she is as a villain, the better the plots I can make for you, so please don't try to solve anything without checking in with me first.
Shipping: I'll put this as a 'maybe' because it is possible in the future, and I don't mind laying some groundwork beforehand. She's 20, and only into men, but at this point she won't trust anyone enough to form an actual caring relationship. If you can be patient and willing to work with a super slow burn, then yes. A ship is absolutely possible. (You can impress her with proof of monster slaying, magic weapons, and being trustworthy and honest at least with her.)
Additional Comment: Please don't metagame or godmode. I am so, so approachable and easy to plot with, so talk to me. I will give you plots, and they will be awesome. (Apologies for the icons, Ellie has very little canon game art, and what she does have isn't that great.)
