Her Story

As fleeting as a feather; many would say this about Allura.She was a striking thing, with all the colours she bore seemingly in contrast; dark hair and heavy lashes to frame vibrant azure eyes, and rose-tinged lips set against a pale canvas — though it was rare that one would find her sitting still long enough to notice the hint of foreignness in her features.If one did catch her, it was often high off the ground, twining herself around suspended silks and hoops. Her airborne grace earned her the moniker 'Black Angel', and she had danced in the grandest of theatres for months before a sudden disappearance; gone as quietly as she'd come.Words were a rarity with her, but she could be tempted to express herself a little more through music — through a voice that seemed to court all the hidden emotions of a heart, and relay the feelings hidden within her own. Where dance, speech, and song failed, her actions spoke for her.Caught her looking your way? That piercing gaze often lingered a little longer on those with hidden storms in their hearts and minds.

Easy Hooks

- Akasa / Aura Sense;
She is extremely receptive to people’s emotions or 'aura'. Her perception comes in the form of colours and shapes. She can often get a sense of a person's true intentions, though this becomes muddled in crowds (subject to writing partner's discretion!). Want her to sense something from you?- Suspended Steps;
She is renowned for her dancing, particularly in aerial silk and suspended hoop routines, having acquired the moniker 'Black Angel' for her ethereal performances. Want to hire her for your venue? Interested in her unique form? Feel free to reach out!- Soothing Slumber;
Rumours speak of a raven-haired songbird who could stave off painful memories and terrifying nightmares. For those desperate to find solace and rest, she may be able to help.- Calming Conduit;
She is able to 'calm' unruly or destructive aether, which could benefit those whose bodies are suffering physically from their aether strain. Pushed further, her ability extends to purifying wounds or poisons from the body.- Murky Memories;
Her mind was once infallible, holding onto every face and every moment that made up her life. Now, there are pockets in what should have been a perfect timeline. She is desperate to recover what has been lost.- The Gilded Gales;
Led by 'troupe master' Henri, the Gilded Gales were a renowned group that fancied themselves as a professional entertainment house. They specialised in exotic dance, mostly in astounding aerial performances, as well as music and, on occasion, live theatre. Not simply a business partnership, it seemed, for Allura was highly protective over her troupe.

Hard Hooks

Ask before pursuing!

- Tainted Ones;
Is your character Voidsent or similarly corrupted in aether/blood? She may be able to help with certain bespoke sufferings... for a small exchange.- In Tongues;
While she lacks fluency in Common and just about every other commonly used language in the present, she's well-versed in Ivalician (and some other older languages).- Dalmascan Dreams;
Speaking of Ivalice, it seems the land that housed Rabanastre and those ancient fairytales may also keep a record of her hidden history.- House Durand;
A minor noble house of Ishgard, the Durands had steadily fallen into decline over their long history, nearly dissolving during the Dragonsong War. What happened in that time was a mystery made up of heretical rumours and mystical guesswork — the only certainty was that their banner had changed come the end of the war, and their contributions tripled. Thus, the failing House that carried a name meaning 'to endure'... endured. Now, they were better known for owning the Holy See's grand theatre. Strange, how this shrouded House would go on to treat Allura as a precious member of their suit. Stranger still, when pressed for a surname, the dancer would sometimes answer 'Durand'.- Lady Luan;
The Luan family was once an esteemed line in the Far East. Now, it exists only in memories of grandeur, and in whispers detailing a bloody, murky end. Not much is known about them, but tales of the clan's far-reaching influence would find a sudden resurgence when their symbol — the Luan bird — was found decorating the banner of a reviving noble house of Ishgard. Question Allura about this old story, however, and one might find the dancer growing quieter. Softer.- Physical Releases; (21+)
As of late, she has been seeking more physical outlets for her growing mental and emotional strife. Simply put, she aims to drown herself in another when certain pains reach a fever pitch. (Note: She is not a sub.)- (RARE) Stray Feather;
No one is ever fully as they seem. This is a rare hook for those who wish to explore the character further. DM to discuss!

Rumours

"That lass? Turned up in Coerthas like a pool of ink in the snow one night. About the same time that haunting voice disappeared from the area.""Got a funny way of speaking, don't she? If you catch her speaking at all.""... But her singing, now that's something. She's got a way of making you feel things.""Not sure if she came by on a ship or if she's looking for one, but a ship is involved somehow!"
