DOSSIER.

biography.

Villanelle grew up in a Gelmorran community near the North Shroud. Her community prized itself upon preserving Gelmorran history, particularly those of the arts. Picking up the harp at the age of five, she quickly learned traditional music and compositional skills, piecing together music lost in the ruins, as well as composing her own works. While in the ruins, she would collect as many scores and poetry books as possible, and immersed herself in the lyrics and sonnets of the previous eras, in particular those from the Pact. Her younger brother, Etienne, was also a skilled musician, and it was rumored that Villanelle sabotaged her own singing career to allow him the chance to flourish.
Not much else is known about her life from this time, as she has a knack for deflecting questions regarding herself. It is rumored, however, that she became acquainted with a reclusive, retired Dragoon from Ishgard who frequented Fallgourd Float, and that she was exiled from her home just before the Calamity.
A few turns of the star following the Calamity, Villanelle was spotted in Gridania, playing her harp near the aetherite and the Carline Canopy. She became a hostess at a local venue, and has found in them her second family.

behavior.
Warm and inviting, dreamy and irreverent, Villanelle prizes herself on being a generous and attentive hostess at The Pelagio, a lounge in Limsa Lominsa. Outside of work, she is much the same: friendly and genuinely curious about the world around her. Though one will not gleam much from her past, she is eager to learn more about others and to be their source of comfort. Guests to The Pelagio can expect a hostess who utters puns, riddles, and occasional rambles. Keenly aware of risque poetry and novels, she herself is oblivious to most flirtations, mistaking them instead as genuine compliments or signs of an impending fever. In the mood for a warm drink? Villanelle is an expert with latte and hot cocoa art--the more absurd, the better!--though she keeps the origins of her art a secret, much like everything else about her.

OOC.

rules
OOC is not IC, and Villanelle is not me. 21+ SFW and NSFW RP is okay, just as long as we communicate. (Sorry, this character is not available for ERP.) In-game RP is generally preferred before we write Discord RP. Due to my work and life schedule, it may take up to a week for Discord replies, sorry--but hey, I try to write really neat posts! My posts are in the third-person with an average length of 1-2 short paragraphs. Response times are typically within the range of 5-10 mins with some variation depending on the scene. I also do not engage with players who engage in racism, fantasy racism, transphobia, or homophobia.
