Helza Relza

STATS

about

Helza is the sort who easily and often gets lost in a crowd, and that's exactly the way he likes it. He keeps his appearance neat and tidy, and prefers to keep his hair short and parted in a clean-cut fashion. He carries himself with confidence and pride. With such a swagger in his walk, it would be easy to simply think him arrogant; Those with no sense of danger will quickly discover their error.To acquaintances and new faces, Helza is every bit a charming gentleman who loves to chat about anything at all and makes friends easily. He frequently goes out of his way to help where he can, and is known to be excessively charitable to the poor and destitute.To those familiar with the darker side of Ul'dah, however, Helza Relza is a name only mentioned in hushed whispers. It is free and common knowledge that the lalafell is a member of The Yilan, a criminal group known for extortion, racketeering, and murder of the city's upper class along with his son, Kelza Rilza.

biography

Helza was born in a small fishing village, the youngest of a large family of Plainsfolk. Much of his early life was spent learning his family's trade and helping to move their produce between the village and the city of Limsa Lominsa for sale.During those trips, Helza would often hear stories from travelers of the many different places they'd visited, but one name always stood out to him: Ul'dah. It was described as the jewel of the desert- a place of endless wealth and opportunity with gilded halls and all the things a small Lalafell of modest means could hardly begin to dream of.When he was sixteen summers old, he took what small earnings he had and set out toward the great city with intent to find some of that opportunity and wealth for himself. Indeed, the city was just as bright and gilded as was described, but the young country Lalafell was not prepared for the kinds of people he would meet there. Within weeks he was swindled of nearly every last coin, and within a month he'd found himself barely scraping by and living in streets.It was during that time that he was approached by The Yilan, a then-small group of refugees and destitute residents looking to make a change in their communities. Helza was sold on their dream of a better tomorrow for the poor. As the Yilan grew, however, so did their ambitions, and soon Helza found himself embroiled in a myriad of criminal activities. It's not the life he wanted, but the pay is good, and the rich are getting what they deserve... at least that's what he tells himself.

HOOKS

Know a guy who knows a guy...

Those who are in the business of selling information will have a good customer. Those who wish to buy will have a reliable informant. There's little he doesn't know or can't find out about the darker corners of Ul'dah.

Up for a little adventure?

Helza yearns to see the world and will often take on jobs in far-away places to do so. He's a reliable companion and good company for those who simply need an extra hand to get somewhere.

TRY ANything once

From dreamweed to somnus, there are very drugs that Helza hasn't tried and he's often on the lookout for suppliers. Those looking for a drinking buddy are in good company. Do you happen to produce poisons? He needs those too.

bad luck lover

Helza's a hopeless romantic at heart and wants little more than someone special to settle down with, but luck hasn't been on his side. He'd like to think there's someone out there, but as the years go on, it feels more and more like a pipe dream.

ABOUT

Hello!I'm Vince (she/they, 30+, asexual), and thanks for visiting my character's carrd!All of my characters-- though small of stature-- are adults, and as such participate in adult situations up to and including blood, violence, and sexual themes. If any of this makes you uncomfortable, you're welcome to walk away. Those who prefer players interested in light, cheerful, wholesome stories will not find it here.I am a casual player in FFXIV, and am most often found on discord. In-game scenes can be arranged, but I will not be online every day. If you're looking for someone who is super active, that isn't me.Discord is my preferred method of RP, and post length depends on what I'm given to work with; I will mirror the effort of my partner. Patient players are welcome and wanted!TL;DR, seeking chill adult friends interested in telling engaging, long-term stories together!
