This character was originally written by Zakuro Kaifu, a friend and longtime FC mate, and was entrusted to me for NPCing. She doesn't come around very often, but when she does, she's fun to play! Sayuri is Zakuro's elder sister, and is much more serious and tradition-focused than the Nixie's Chief Engineer. Both sisters, native to Doma, were conscripted into the Garlean army at a young age; Sayuri is a more recent defector. When she left, she was a Frumentarii, using her shinobi skills to serve the empire from the shadows. Of late, she can be found lounging in the Lavender Beds cottage belonging to Zakuro and her fiancee, Odile Vremaix.

Middle daughter of the minor Ishgardian House Bale, niece to the former Azure Dragoon Alberic Bale. A wandering Mystic Knight, First-Shard-traveller, and a scholar with a lot of feelings.
House Bale is an Ishgardian minor House known for occasionally producing Azure Dragoons; most recently and notably, Alberic Bale, mentor and foster father of Estinien Wyrmblood. Alberic’s elder brother, Raphael Bale, carried on the lesser-known duties of this House and passed it on to his three children, Felix, Anne-Sophie, and Noémie: namely, to foster all knowledge, though it may be considered heretical. Long shielded by the auspices of a few Azure Dragoons along the way, all those born to this House learn from a young age to avoid causing a stir whenever possible. Thus, they attend church, they train and serve as Temple Knights, astrologians, chirurgeons and teachers; all in service to what they view as their sacred duty to preserve knowledge and enrich Ishgard with all they know.Anne-Sophie, the middle daughter of Raphael and Mathilde Bale, is nearly always seen wearing her House ring and earrings; brilliant fire opals, with House Bale’s words, Suos Cultores Scientia Coronat (“knowledge crowns those who seek her”), engraved on their settings. Like all those who came before her, she trained in sword and spear from a young age, as well as receiving a comprehensive education at home and, later, the Scholasticate. Her ability to manipulate aether led to her serving in Ser Ibaux’s First Irregular Arms Unit in the Dragonsong War; a unit of so-called Mystic Knights, sanctioned by the Holy See in order to gain an edge against Nidhogg’s wrath. Every Ishgardian suffered in that war; Anne-Sophie was no exception. Once her first tour of service ended, she devoted herself entirely to the study of finding a different world; a gentler one, full of flowers, peace, and faerie tales. Though she succeeded in travelling to and eventually returning home from the First Shard, it came at great cost; the details of which can be learned by asking her in character!Anne-Sophie's insatiable curiosity led her to return to the First Shard at last, never to return to the Source. One can imagine she is still out there, dreaming, and serving a new code of honor.

Made for the meme of a Lalafell playthrough, and then became a bit character in a few storylines. A quiet, secretive sort, she is fond of chocobos, hot drinks, and being able to exist beneath most people's field of vision. She is mute IC, but is an effective communicator all the same. She also has a small FC house on Maduin, Lavender Beds, Ward 6, Plot 17 that's being worked into a Gridanian summer cottage.

↪Hi! I'm Esper. I love all things FFXIV (including the mighty paissa, in case that's not obvious), and have been playing since 2013.
↪41/F/US Pacific Northwest (GMT-08:00).
↪I am generally lore-adherent, but this game's lore is eminently flexible, and I absolutely take advantage of that elastic creative space. In general, I really love incorporating elements from other Final Fantasy titles, as well as a few other JRPGs and real-world myths here and there.
↪As of 2026, my schedule is pretty flexible. I live by The Calendar :tm:, and I can be open most times for RP so long as I have at least a day of advance notice! I have a few people that I write with a lot, so it may take some finagling to schedule new things, but I'm always happy to try.
↪Currently, I only do in-game RP. I don't trust myself to stay focused on Discord, gdocs, or other mediums, unfortunately.
↪It's not a hard-and-fast rule, but I greatly prefer to write with people who are 30+.
↪I am an experienced roleplayer and writer, and I take particular pleasure in storytelling and DMing. I love nothing more than learning about others' characters, and generally live by the play to lift philosophy.
↪I am open to almost all RP so long as players are mature, respectful, and friendly about everything. I am not a fan of hardcore military-style RP or excessive gore, however. I do enjoy ERP so long as there's a reason for it. It's fun!
↪I do use a very limited set of mods now; I finally got tired of the ugly sandals, underwear, and the horror of floating furnishings manually. Currently, I stick to a few and don't use any sort of sharing tool; just the old-fashioned exchange with whomever I'm RPing with. I'm also on PS5 about half the time, and prefer to RP when I'm on PC.
↪If you see me online and I'm afk and/or running into a wall...I probably fell asleep while playing on the PS5. I really enjoy listening to some of the music and ambience while dozing off, and sometimes forget to put my controller away. Please give me a headpat and leave me to my future embarrassment.
↪I can be reached in game (please never hesitate to send me a tell!) and/or at sugarshockshutdown on Discord. I am generally a very laid-back, approachable person...even if I am sometimes slow to respond.
↪I hope to hear from you (yes, you) soon! If you message me, tell me your favorite food!
