"If through my efforts others are able to live a better life,
then I have done my best.
Service is a gift."
The third of five children born to Lord Guile and Lady Mdbwyn Beregast, Zelphinia was the first daughter born to the noble House Beregast of Ishgard. While only being of minor nobility, she still enjoyed all the benefits (and drawbacks) of growing up in the upper class of Ishgard. Its plain to see from her mannerisms that she is well versed in everything a proper Lady should be, even if she is not the prim and proper Lady some wished for her to be.Her mixed race background (Elezen and Roegadyn) has led to some repeated difficulty, but this only helped make Zelphinia to become the strong and talented woman one may meet should they linger long in the flowered regions of Gridania, the chilly skies of Coerthas, or the halls of certain establishments.The same can be said for her time serving as a Dragoon of Ishgard during the Dragonsong War. Her training brought her into contact with the eyes of Nidhogg and from that moment she began to slowly change into a dragon. It was around this time she was also discovered to have a peculiar gift known to some as the ECHO. The two have a connection, but what it is has yet to be revealed.Her family, having gained considerable position in recent years, still reside in Ishgard proper, overseeing their growing network of greenhouses and distilleries throughout Eorzea. Zelphinia herself assists from time to time, but has a cottage hidden away amongst the flowers and trees of the shroud where she revels in the nurturing of her own greenery and brewing a myriad of delights from her original recipes.A subtly pleasant scent of Rolanberries mixed with Lavender hangs about her at all times and while it does happen, you will rarely ever see her wearing colors other than the Rolanberry and Silver of House Beregast.

Ishgard: Anything dealing with the Nobility, Dragoons, or frankly any topic regarding her homeland. She's VERY proud of skills as a Dragoon and will wax poetic at length.-Dragons: Zelphinia has an obvious connection to them and will happily spend days on end discussing them. She frequents Dravania regularly...-Flowers: Being the daughter of a renown botanist, Zel has picked up a deep love for all things flora. Their cultivation, uses, even the language they speak or can convey. If you ask nicely enough she just might even help you understand that bouquet your lover sent you...-Mixology: Zelphinia is a very skilled hand at the mixing and pouring of cocktails, not to mention creating them. Ask about her time at the Fairy Tale Lounge, or her current employment at the Royal Chambers and the Vena Amoris.-Servitude: To some its a menial thing that is beneath them, but to Zelphinia, serving with pride is something to delight in greatly. Whether its a well crafted drink, a lovingly prepared floral arraignment, or something more....visceral... she puts her whole heart and being into making sure the act is one of utmost detailed dedication and passion.
She wears a collar for a reason...

-RP:
YES! I adore RP and find it to be one of the biggest reasons I play FFXIV.
All manners and flavors of RP are up for discussion, so hit me up and we can set up something. If you see me in game, say "HI!"
-IC =/= OOC:
What happens between our chars does NOT translate to IRL.
What happens in Eorzea STAYS IN Eorzea.

Personal Info:
I play on a very sporadic schedule based in the Eastern Time Zone (EST)
Setting up a time for our chars to hang out might be the best way to make sure we get some RP together.
