a name like mine
A mercenary-turned civilian-turned mercenary again, Torrjm (tohr-imm) is a mercenary/bounty hunter of lance and scouting prestige, currently navigating the chaos involved with keeping her life together as she builds herself up from (and routinely knocks herself back down to) a brutal rock bottom.Vulgar, brazen, chummy, and self-destructive beneath it all thanks to years upon years of sellsword work from all shades of gray, Torrjm is jarringly intense in combat, graceless in conversation, uncultured in presentation, hedonistic to a dangerous fault... but above all else, fiercely loyal to those who earn her respect.
at-a-glance bio
Name: Torrjm ("tohr-imm")
Age: Vieran aging appears to have halted around early 30s
Gender & Pronouns: she/her
Orientation: pansexual, monogamous
Occupation: mercenary, bounty hunter, tavern manager
Alignment: Chaotic NeutralCharacter traits:
Over a decade of combat expertise. An expert lancer resembling a dragoon and a longtime mercenary willing to weather even the darkest of jobs for the right gil, Torrjm wears the hundreds of stories in the scars across her skin. Relying heavily on her fine-tuned physical senses in both combat and everyday life, she excels in fast reflexes and impressive acrobatics above all else.
Highly trained hunter and tracker. Her original calling back in her tribe, Torrjm nowadays puts her hunting and tracking skills to work in bounty and monster hunting.
Brash, surly, social, uncultured, good-natured, loyal. Torrjm acts as if she isn't afraid of anybody, reports to no one, and isn't afraid to pick a fight. This also means she can strike up a friendly conversation with most anyone and anywhere, and can even be the life of a party if the setting is right. While boorish and not the most intelligent, Torrjm has a big heart behind a lot of moxie and swagger. She is bluntly honest, unsophisticated and not the most socially graceful, but she is generally well-meaning and kind until she has reason not to be.
Self-destructive, hedonistic, independent. Concerning amount of substance abuse. Sloppy. Indulges intensely in most anything she can. Insistently refuses help. Workaholic. Both bad with money and deep in debt. A little sleazy. Short-tempered, defensive, slow to trust, prone to outbursts. Fiercely private about her personal life.

rp hooks
Sellswords, adventurers, healers and apothecaries: Torrjm is a mercenary of over a decade. She could have worked alongside or against your character for a job more or less anywhere across Eorzea, or could have been at some point hired by, connected with, or patched up by them, too.
Hunters and the hunted: Torrjm is scary enough in combat, but her strongest skills are in scouting, tracking, and hunting down targets, which includes bounty hunting and monster hunting. She's an easy recommendation for jobs of this nature, whether by your character or of your character.
Backalley & underworld types: In all three major cities thanks to her long duration as a mercenary, Torrjm has a strong underworld reputation as a no-nonsense, rather intense mercenary who takes on most any job for the right gil.
The Burrow: Tucked into the bad end of the Goblet is a small, haphazard tavern open sporadically after dusk, where Torrjm appears to live and work as its only employee.
Goofballs & good-timers: Considering her hedonistic tendencies, it's entirely possible to have mingled with Torr in her off-time one way or another, e.g. gambling at the Golden Saucer, drinking at some dive bar or strip club, even a foggy one-night stand she doesn't remember.
New Gridanians & The Shroud: Longtime inhabitants or frequent visitors within a specific window of time several years back may have known or even worked with Torrjm.
Nothing here works? I'm happy to thinktank something more personalized that would work if there's interest. DM away!

Additionally, I like playing rabbit-Barbie and dicking around with FF14 glamours as a silly, fun hobby. My glams are on Eorzea Collection if you're interested in glancing at them!
player info
Pronouns: she/her
Age: 30s
Timezone: ET
Availability: Most weeknights, sporadic weekdays, some weekends
Discord: Ask.I'm a writer, artist and gamer who has been RPing and DMing since I was little across many MMOs, forums, and LARPs. I've dipped my toes into most things nerdy or craftsy one way or another.Torrjm is my main and only character on FFXIV. I do pretty much all PvE things except Savage content, but especially love RP, glams, housing, and dicking around on BLU. I'm usually happy to jump in and help out other players in PvE content where I can.
Preferred RP: Interactive, mentally stimulating stuff, e.g. developing tight friendships, delving into character backstories, small/large arcs, anything with character arcs or growth, and so on. I deeply prefer groups of 5 or less and love gray-gray morality content.
RP Locations: In-game preferred, whether pre-arranged or sporadic. Discord is OK on occasion/once established/for specific or longer scenes.
Mature content: Very few triggers, most content is fine. No problem with blood, cursing, and most heavy material so long as it serves an actual purpose for happening.
Misc: I am not interested in RP with players under 21 years of age, usually due to a difference in experience and priorities. Sorry!
