Lore

Past

Helene "Ellie" Florence was born with her twin sister, Avyaana, to a wealthy family in Ul'Dah. Their parents watched them closely, leaving little to no room to experience the world. Avyaana was a more independent soul, so the two of them grew up together, but very distant from one another.Ellie's world was made for her by a wealthy father who funded the best education available, any items and food she could ever need, but was otherwise absent. Her mother was the opposite. Also neglected by the father, her mother put all of her attention to Ellie. Over time Ellie began feeling suffocated, never really being able to find her true self.To their displeasure, Ellie began alienating herself from her family and grew closer again to Avyaana, learning to embrace her free spirit. She began making her own choices - some leading to low places, but some leading her closer to her true potential. She first found solace in cafes and lounges, getting to know the local bards and trying new kinds of coffees. Music was always a safe space for her so she started to explore Eorzean night life. She slowly built her own fortune by flirting at the bar and carefully playing games of chance.Ellie followed a path of self-discovery. She learned that she wanted to bring the love, care, and affection to others that she had never properly received for herself. She swiftly ended her career as a Red Mage and instead began her career as a Lady of the Night. After many employment opportunities at nearby night clubs, she decided once again to forge her own path.Over time, Ellie amassed an enormous amount of gil and began building her legacy at The White Rabbit, a speakeasy style nightclub on the beaches of Shirogane. She wished to bring the joy of a cafe into Eorzea night life, by providing a classy, personable night club - a place where the patrons could enjoy local DJ's without losing the closeness of a daytime cafe.

Present

current plot/story building

The further she leans into the venue, the more she craves mutual intimacy - someone who wants more with her than just the night. But she is struggling with this idea. She spent her entire adult life getting away from the mundane, the "normal." How would she ever be able to build something with another person, while maintaining the freedom of her preferred lifestyle?

Goals

Ellie wishes to find a companion who supports her lifestyle and provides her with the affection she is always so eager to give. She craves reciprocated love, care, communication, and freedom to be herself. She just wants to be herself with someone.
