Appearance

Madigan, at a glance, is unremarkable in the most deliberate way.She weaves through ports, markets, and taverns with the ease of a seasoned sailor—her solid frame and relaxed posture blending seamlessly into the background hum of working folk. A crooked smirk often plays at her lips, the kind that invites familiarity or trouble depending on the angle. But to those watching closely, it becomes clear: nothing about her presence is truly careless.There’s a tension beneath her casual movements—a restless edge in the way she shifts her weight or flexes her fingers in idle affectations. It's the kind of readiness born not of nerves, but of habit; an instinctive poise, like a coeurl lying in wait. She never lingers without subtly scanning her surroundings, violet eyes sharp, alive, calculating. To the battle-hardened, the signs are unmistakable: a woman perpetually assessing, never fully at ease.Her copper-toned hair is tied high at the back of her head, a single braid slipping down to brush her collarbone, as if to balance the practical with the ornamental. Overlong bangs sweep across a face freckled from brow to boot, softening otherwise sharp features. Her skin bears the story her voice won’t tell: scars scattered like fragments of an unfinished map. Some are faint, forgotten slips of a blade or claw. Others are deep enough to hint at moments that should have ended her. None are worn for glory. None offered freely. They mark not just survival, but what was endured in silence, and the choices that left their mark beneath skin and soul.There’s a slight gap between her front teeth, a charming flaw that feels almost strategic—an echo of the same unexpectedness that lives in her lopsided smiles. Her physique speaks in contradictions: plush curves betraying a sweet tooth, tempered by the strength of a body shaped through labor. Long legs, thick with power. Calloused hands that know work. Blunt nails that never cared for polish.

Madigan is mercurial by design. In familiar company, her boldness flows unchecked—brazen in her affections, sharp in her humor. She performs entire dialogues in a glance; sarcasm blooms in a twitch of her brow, a crooked smile, a lifted chin that dares you to keep up. But in the face of aggression, the warmth cools instantly. She does not suffer fools. And she has no patience for posturing. Those who test her may be met with scathing wit—or a much quicker reckoning.To the untrained eye, she might still pass as just another rough-around-the-edges sailor. But to those with a keener sense for hierarchy, for predators, for masks worn too long—it’s clear: this is not a woman used to following.There’s a symbol inked at her collarbone—Llymlaen’s ironic blessing—and it draws the eye like a dare. She moves through crowds with the unconscious bearing of someone accustomed to command. People look away, or meet her gaze too quickly and regret it. Whether through charm, manipulation, or sheer force of will...Madigan always gets what she’s after.

Responsibility — Now Hiring: "What could you have?"【The Drowning Wench was alive with talk of the west; the New World.】Rumors swirled as sailors nursed their drinks, their voices rising with the booming confidence of men who had never set foot past Eorzea’s shores. Every few moments, another tale drifted across the room—beasts the size of ships, jungles with golden trees, entire civilizations untouched by trade or war.Madigan ignored them all.She sat at her usual table, set apart from the loudest clusters, the long hem of her scarlet coat pooled around her chair. Before her sat a towering stack of applications, an untouched tankard of cider, and a parchment rolled at the edges from frequent handling. Her map.Her fingers drifted to it absently, tracing faded ink lines. Her mother’s old handwriting wove between routes she had taken a thousand times. Every scratch of the quill, every word she read from the latest deckhand candidate, was another link in the chain. Another season. Another journey she already knew by heart.And somewhere, buried beneath the weight of responsibility, a bitter whisper in the back of her mind: It should be exciting. The vault. The secret cove. But if I chase that instead of leading them, am I already failing?She let out a long breath, rolling the quill between her fingers. She knew the answer.“Ain’t ye the Captain of the Swallowtail? Y'ever think of taking yer ship west, instead?”She finally glanced up, lips curling in a lazy smirk, though her grip on the quill tightened just a fraction. Madigan’s voice cut across the tavern before she even looked up.“Wouldn’t want to take all the adventure away from you poor bastards. What would you have to talk about then?” The words came easy, sharp, aimed at the drunken sailor who had sidled up nearby, leering at her like she was some novelty.A privateer captain not chasing Tural?Unthinkable.Markets of Radz-at-Han — Seeking the City of Secrets【Looking for anything to tell her she’d found the right person to talk to.】The markets of Radz-at-Han were a riot of color and sound. Stalls packed tightly together spilled over with exotic silks, gleaming jewelry, and wares imbued with half-whispered promises of power. The air was thick with the scent of spice and incense, mingling with the sharp tang of sunbaked stone.Madigan moved through the throng, shoulders squared, chin lifted—an air of confidence that did little to mask her distraction. Her gloved fingers trailed absently along a stall’s display of alchemical vials, violet eyes flicking from one merchant to the next. She wasn’t shopping, not really.Somewhere in this labyrinth of trade and deception, she knew the right seller existed. Someone who dealt in knowledge rather than trinkets, in hushed deals rather than haggled prices. But where in the hells were they?She shifted her weight, rolling her shoulders in irritation. The wrong question to the wrong person could mean a dead end—or worse, an unshakable tail. And she didn’t have time for either.The City of Opportunity — Hunted in Kugane【Madigan knew this place could easily get the better of her.】She had learned it well the first time, when her temper had gotten the better of her and a noblewoman’s sharp tongue had earned her a sharp crack across the face with a parasol. In hindsight, she could have handled that better.But no matter how many years had passed, no matter how careful she was, the city never quite let her forget.She moved with purpose through the winding streets of the Rakuza District, her hood drawn just low enough to shadow her face. Eyes forward. Steps steady. She wasn’t running, but she was careful—too careful, perhaps, for someone who was meant to be just another foreigner passing through.Something in the air felt off.A glimpse of movement in her periphery. A subtle shift in the way the crowd flowed around a certain point.Madigan rolled her shoulders, adjusting the drape of her coat as she slowed her steps near a market stall, pretending to inspect the goods on display.If someone was watching her, she wasn’t about to give them the satisfaction of running.Not yet.
