Temulin Borlaaq

"I'm small with the might of the Steppe!"

Not-So-Dainty

A highly energetic Borlaaq, wanderlust seized the young Xaela as soon as she came of age. A daughter of the Steppe through and through, she sought permission from her Elders to go westward though one has to wonder if it's more than simple curiosity and glorious fight pits.

At a Glance:
Temulin's round, good humored face is framed by untamed thick black hair that she cultivates in short styles. In contrast with the alabaster skin, her obsidian horns are small, easy to miss and curve down the sides, blending in with the dark strands. Shunning feminine clothes for easy to move leathers and having a disdain for excessive jewelry or makeup, Temulin is a bit of a tomboy and it is rare to find her in a dress.The Xaela's large brown eyes glint with mischief and with a mouth that always seems to be on the brink of laughter. Temulin's loud voice is also at odds with her slight frame.

Brief History:
According to Temulin she has bested more than a hundred and one Garlean soldiers with her fists alone and has wrestled a giant bear! Regardless if one believes or doubts her claims, it is certain that she has the heart of a warrior and is a Xaela to the bone.Born and raised in the Borlaaq tribe, the Steppe is all Temulin has ever known until relatively recently. She decided to venture into Eorzea to broaden her horizons, taking odd jobs here and there while exploring.For now, she is content in testing her strength and going on all sorts of adventures.

Hooks:
-Home is Near & Far: The easiest hook are other Xaelas from the Azim Steppe, specifically from the Borlaaq tribe. Her mother is one of the tribe's many foremost warriors who is known for her many children--Temulin being the youngest.
Spoiler: Her father is a Dalamiq and members of this tribe can easily recognize Temulin due to her frequent visits.Need help? She can be hired as a mercenary or retainer to collect items out in the wild, for a price of course (a Xaela has to eat!)-Any smiths: Temulin is very interested in learning Eorzea's techniques!-Food: If there's something cooking, a certain lizard will be there! The girl can fight but she cannot cook unless burnt, tasteless meals are desired.-Hunting: She loves to hunt and Eorzea is still especially new to her.-Weapon Trainers/Sparring Partners: The Xaela is seek to hone her combat skills, especially with hand to hand but also swords, axes, spears and bows.
