Rules
Rule One
✦Lyreis isn't me. I do share a lot of traits with her, personnality wise we're close. But I'm not the character, and what she feels aren't my feelings. Meaning I won't fall for you even if my character does.
Rule Two
✦I do light RP in venues. For more important plots and stories, it will for the moment be locked behind my French group/Free Company.
Rule Three
✦I'm open to collabs of any sorts, SFW/NSFW, but will have to know you a bit before doing them. Don't come to me expecting ERP, as I don't do that at all. For NSFW collab, it's very rare.
Rule Four
✦More will be added as I see fit !
OOC

Origins
Born Sieryl Adelevy, she is the Crown-Princess of Rune-Midgard, a kingdom from The First that's now lost to history. Her father, King consort, wished for his name to become the new royal lineage and after not having a son, found a mistress to have one. Saerah, her mother, was very sick after her pregnancy, and depression came soon, rending her weak and easy to manipulate. She took poison to end her life, given by her husband's mistress. Greid then took over the kingdom and put his mistress and son on the throne, trying then to "sell" Sieryl to the highest bidder. The young girl was saved by a wealthy pirate named Amra Kerien, and her life changed forever.

Story
Pirate Years
Joining Captain Amra's crew, Sieryl changed her name to Lyreis Levy, cutting part of her mother's name for herself, and making it clear she was now a child of the Leviathan, their ship. She grew from a little princess to a real pirate after years of teaching and harsh conditions. The Leviathan was the only ship that could navigate the treacherous sea of her world, where magnetic storms leads many to their deat. Amra had a magic compass that could protect his ship, and he used that to travel to unknown islands and continents. He was against slavery, and soon Lyreis shared his views, fighting the many slave traders and freeing their slaves to bring them somewhere they couldn't be found again. Amra gave her his ship and role on his deathbed, and she holded unto his teaching until one day, the compass didn't protect them and she was thrown into the deep sea. When she woke up, she had lost her memory, emotions, and found herself in another world, on the eorzean coasts with an unknown power that was the Echo.
Early times in Eorzea
Found by gridanians, she was sent to the capital to be checked by E-Sumi-Yan who took an interest to her particular ether, and taught her about Conjuring and healing spells. She partook in the art easily, and was then thrown around as an adventurer, meeting with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. It took until the events of the Praetorium to get her emotions back, and until after the Dragonsong War for a man named Aether to find a way to unlock her memories. Between those, she spent months in the Gubal Library to learn as much as she could about this world and its magic, bringing some finding to an abandonned house south of Idyllshire. During one night she mistaked two bottles and drank a fantasia, turning into a miqo'te in the morning. Returning to Ishgard, she decided to learn the art of Astromancy and left her conjurer staff behind. Lyreis then met people by chance working with the Scions, and created friendships with a small group that would soon leave together and create a new Free Company named Edelweiss, after a hard fight against a creature akin to a Primal borned from nightmares. At that time, she also fell for Aether, and soon started a relationship with him and had her first child, Sohen, who sadly had his aether tainted by the "Primal".
The Edelweiss
A group of eight people started this Free Company that became known to work closely with the Warrior of Light, a role Lyreis took during her first years in Eorzea before the real one would be ready to take the mantle. While working to keep the company afloat, she lost her husband while having to take care of her son alone, before he was brought back from the sea of stars by their friends. But things didn't turned out well, as Sohen, their son, was sook by a powerful voidsent who felt the aether of Nightmare on him. Talking to the boy in his dreams, he told him he would be his friend. Aether decided against his wife advice to bring the voidsent to their world by giving him a body made from his own aether so he could control him. But things didn't went accordingly, and the voidsent could act on his own. He did though played his part as to lower the parents guard. At the same time it was found that Nightmare had created artefacts before being defeated that would bring him back, and posessed one of the Edelweiss member, forcing the group to find their friend. Lyreis had then to use the Benediction of Light attributed to her to seal the creature away in her friend's soul, having no other choice, but leaving her weak and cutting her link to the aether. At that time, she then doubted of Hydaelyn's place as a benevolant God, and started saying that she was a Primal, more powerful than any other. Now incapable of using the aether around her to heal, she met X'Rhun Tia and learned about red magic, training as much as she could while being pregnant of her second child, Lyra.
The Source and the Shard
It took a few years before Lyreis met with her Source counterpart. Given a strange tomestone by an elezen, she found a laboratory within Azys Lla with her friends containing a program to train loyal soldiers of the Emperor. Inside was a teenage girl stuck into a box, frozen in time, who would awake with the laboratory. She looked like Lyreis but with a red right eye, an allagan royalty of sort. Named Sieryl, she was the "real one" for the First Shard. This sent Lyreis into a spiral of thoughts leading to her thinking she shouldn't be there and that all was a mistake. At the same time, troubles stearing around her Company made her decide to move her family away in Hingashi, so they would be hidden from their ennemies. There, she visited Yanxia and at one point found rests of a shipwreck : it was half of her ship, the Leviathan. She decided with Aether to rebuild the ship, and seeing that even in Shirogane, their ennemies found them and put their children in danger, they sent them on the ship with their caretaker, Lilyven. Aether, on his part, wanted to leave anyway since he grew tired of this life, only wishing to return to his spy life. Without telling much of what he was going to do, he asked Lyreis to hide too, and having learned about the Populares faction in Garlemald, she decided to join them to maybe help settle the war raging near Gyr Abania.

Hooks
Redmancy Creator
Combining her skills and experience from her roles of Astromancer and Red Mage, Lyreis created a new magic school with a job stone : the Redmancy. The job works mostly as a Red Mage would, but the focus containing the magic of the stars. She can boost her own magic, being offensive or defensive, and her combo uses gravity and time stasis instead of Holy and Flare. She's looking to teach this new magic school.
Dynamis Archon
After losing her Benediction of Light, Lyreis saw her link to the aether broken. Thinking she could still use her own aether, she learned red magic, only to discover far later that she was indeed weaving dynamis. She've since wrote a thesis about dynamis and was accepted as an Archon in Sharlayan.
Populares' Emissary
For more than a year, Lyreis tried to find a diplomatic way to stop the war between Garlemald and Eorzea, and joined a group named the Populares. She was placed as a bodyguard for the Ambassador Asahi sas Brutus before being thrown into the Emissary seat in Doma. While in Garlemald, she became a test subject for Aulus mal Asina and lost her right eye.
Seamstress
Having been forced to sew her own clothes after changing form, Lyreis found it quite pleasing, and having an eye for fashion, decided to became a seamstress. Her house having a little atelier in the basement, she makes clothes for some specific clients.
The First
Born into the First Shard, Lyreis does have a different aetheric signature. A pirate of legend from 1000 years ago, you might have read about her in a tattered book, but who knows?
