HI! I'm Chrissie, good to meet you!~ I have three characters here and hopefully you see maybe some connections for us, yes? :D
CHLOË DU GARD // thief Chloë prefers to work behind the scenes and is a thief with sticky fingers and loves the challenge. She will flirt to distract if necessary, but most of the time she'll just do the whole bump/nab yo' gil thing. She's energetic and happy, and fun to be around, though she doesn't really keep "friends," though really, she does, but she likes to think she keeps them at a distance. She doesn't like to make attachments much because she grew up in an orphanage and that sort of trained her into believing it wasn't worth it and people would just disappoint her somehow. She loves all sorts of gossip and if not thieving, she is also a machinist and makes gadgets and gizmos for Ofelia and Cian.
SAEED HADDAD // samurai Saeed was gone for the past six months and recently returned from Ordalia where he was raised. He's lived in Emillion most of his life and is part of the Fighters Guild, however, he works as a bodyguard to a wealthy noble family. He is a very accepting sort of person and follows his own code, which doesn't also jibe well with the actual law (i.e. a starving person is totally fine in stealing food for their family). He is nice to most everyone and has some good friends among the people of Emillino. If James has been around, he would known Saeed pretty well and they could be friends-ish, but lemme know what you think!
EMILY MILIONA // black mage Emily is the fiancée of Cormac and also one of the nicest people that James will ever meet. She encourages people, treats them nicely, and doesn't look down on others the way nobles do. She "died" for about five years though nobody (except Cormac) knows why she did it, though he didn't know she wasn't actually dead. Anywho, Emily isn't what she seems though. Underneath that nice face she uses people and gets them to help her without them realizing they're helping her half the time. Nobody, except Cormac currently, knows what she's really like, and apparently Cormac is okay with that. She did kill someone to fake her death, but again, only Cormac knows this. Everyone else has no clue, and to them, she's just Lady Emily Miliona, nice person extraordinaire!
Welcome to the game though and I'm happy to plot or explore any ideas you might have to see if we can make them happen! :) You can hit me up on GTalk as smile.chrissie or AIM at broodyelf.
