She kisses like a guillotine:she has no regard for where your head falls

At A Glance: While an air of unpredictability is inextricably entwined with her very existence, this reactive Veena exile's every action is part and parcel with intention. There's a method to her madness, but Fairuza Marx would prefer you not notice. See, this scoundrel knows full well: Power and control are all about the optics.The proud anti-establishmentarian is known for her compulsive devotion to ongoing volatility, and playing passenger to her many vices. With a rabid pursuit of self-indulgence and pleasure: Fai is frequently found at local taverns drinking to excess, thriving in the light of praise and ego-stroking, insidiously planting seeds of revolution, and weaving threads of disorder and dissent.

Name: Fairuza Marx
Birthname: 'Fadat'
Nameday: 7th sun of the 4th Astral Moon
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Irrelevant
Status: Bonded
Birthplace: Skatay Foothills
Occupation: Goldsmith, quick and effective "contractor", fence
Personality: Sociable, antagonistic, menacing, loyal, protective, confrontational, impulsive, usually cavalier, occasionally rowdy.Details: Fai smells of cloves, cardamom, warm vanilla, ginger, and cinnamon. She smokes signature clove cigarettes hand-rolled with black paper. Her smile is inherently sinister, full of perfect teeth, vibrant white incisors, and a single gold-tooth adorned with a dark sapphire next to her right fang. Her right ear has noticeable scarring. She and her husband have a baby girl, Valdis.History: A scrappy, hostile young veena who spent most of her life punished for constant fighting, slipping away from the confines of her homestead to explore without permission, carelessly defying her village's elders and the tenets of the Green Word. Ultimately, her chronic disregard for these norms contributed to her exile.What Fai (pronounced like Fay) lacks in civility and scruples is more than compensated for with resourcefulness and guile. Arrogant to a fault, she's liable to shoot anything positing as more important than her ego on sight.Voiceclaim: Denise Poirier as Aeon Flux, animated series.

Whatever Doesn't Kill You

Better Fucking Give Me

My Money Back

• Criminal Activity: Need to offload items from a score? Sell stolen goods? Need distance from evidence? Palmed unique jewelry and want to make it unrecognizable? Can't stop dreaming of making off with a prized painting from a museum? Fai's primary skills: Fencing/receiving/dealing stolen property, identification and document forgery, and( of course) theft/larceny. She's usually more than happy to take on jobs collecting blackmail or the brokering of information as well.• The Over/Under: Fai's skillset offers her plenty of opportunities and jobs, mostly ones of less than legal aim. If you're looking for work, she's a name some may have whispered as reliable or as reliable of a source as someone can be in the underworld.• She's a run of the mill lush; your stereotypical alcoholic. Comment on her prized, hand-crafted gold flask, ask about the boozy contents, or have her read the carefully engraved stanza on its side. Rumor is she's actually got some goldsmithing chops -- mainly with such flasks.• If your character has Aethersight: Fai's aether strobes from black to white -- appears like TV static -- and can be described as "unsettled" or "haunted".• Fairuza is a notorious shit talker. She enjoys trading barbs with clever minds and talking trash competitively, or for laughs. Want to volley some burns back and forth? (Send /tell first, please).• Bar Brawls, Blood Sands, and other Fight Clubs Fairuza loves going to fight clubs and watching spars. It's no surprise she enjoys fighting herself... Win or lose. But she sure isn't above throwing a fight for profit. And she's almost always happy to spar/brawl.

Feel free to walk-up if my tag is on!

Note: Due to my tendency to multi-task, sending a tell if you don't get a response in a reasonable time is encouraged!


"No one is filled with madness like to mine/ In all the taverns! my soiled robe lies here,/ There my neglected book, both pledged for wine./ With dust my heart is thick, that should be clear..." - Hafez

a delayed response to the sentencing of fadat, a veena from the ornedwesfv clan, to exile and death: your lesson in failure.

To those who swung their metaphorical axe at my neck,A verdict of guilt was handed to Fadat, 58 at the time, from the Veena Clan for egregious violation of the Green word 7 years ago. Her offenses included but were not limited to: communication and relations with 'outsiders', manipulation of aether, summoning blasphemous, mist-sourced creatures, which was upgraded to execution due to repetitious and unjustified violence. The resulting punishment of exile is completed and satisfied, but my death remains woefully unfulfilled.I have confidence all of you who remain are still motivated by fear from superstition and antiquated tradition. You should have confidence I remain wherever conflict and questionable morality blossoms like a serpent, armless, choking on its own tail. Such hubris reeks of hypocrisy; don’t think it goes under the radar the massive bounty you paid of precious relics to guarantee my demise with an outsider, the very outsider I was banished for cavorting with. Tsk.It's unfortunate to have anything in common with you, but truth be told: he duped us both.While I derive much joy out knowing this bruises your arrogance, I gain more schadenfreude than any person should be allowed with how generously it flows from my ongoing and unhindered survival which, I am happy to say is also quite pleasurable. As far as the jerk who ripped you all off goes? He'll never feel pleasure again, hells, he's never going to feel anything at all. His ability to survive seemed to have been subpar.Sometimes I think back to my youth with all of you. I think, maybe the eventual outcome of my course, could I have stayed, would have been me succumbing to tradition and behaving; perhaps my violent streak would have subsided and I’d be giving you kits instead of giving the warders bloody noses. Maybe my studies and abilities would have been fruitful if you had opened your hearts and minds. If I’m honest, which I will be: that’s doubtful. I was not made for your world; simply put -- no verdant whispers could or would ever get through to me.I must admit, sometimes I truly miss the sounds of birds calling while I, in a somber solitude like none of you shall ever know, gained more knowledge and experience than countless numbers of the generations who came before me combined. I miss feeling the wind as it ricocheted off the cliffs of the Skatay, before weaving an unknowable journey through the wood, and eventually to make the branches of the Golmore to the south tremble and shiver. I smell dirt and stream water, and I miss the home I once knew, Gods, I especially long for the scent of petrichor only found in the small triangulated area our village sat within.

But all of you?
All of you can suck shit.

Sincerely,
Fairuza “Fadat” MarxP.S. Thought I'd send you a little gift. Just a little piece of art from a hobby I picked up. It's a print of my ass. You can kiss it. Fuck you.

Info + OOC


General Rule of Thumb:
Please don't make things weird.

●Lore-bending (within reason) is okay! Breaking lore, ignoring it, god-moding, over-powered players/characters, meta-gamers, and perpetual-protagonists are all non-starters.● I am very communicative OOCly regarding expectations, etc. Transparency, honesty, and respectful communication should be the default, both ways. We ain't gotta be besties, but good communication is critical.● Of course : IC =/= OOC. IC/OOC bleed sucks, keep it to less than a minimum for your own sake. IC/OOC separation is crucial and IRL always comes first. I won't ever forget there's a human being driving the characters I interact with in game; thus showing respect is my default.● No ERP. If you're looking on my card specifically trying to figure out if I write smut/will ERP with you, you're already fucking up. In short: Probably not. I generally don't write lewdness with people I don't know and trust.● I have zero tolerance for bigotry. No racism, transphobia, sexism, queer-phobia, xenophobia, misogyny, ableism, etc.● I do not script-ship (or whatever) characters, nor do I force interactions/situations which don't make sense/aren't organic. It's not personal -- don't try to force it.● I only RP in depth with people 25+ years old or over. Casual slice of life, family-friendly roleplay situations may be okay for younger, but deeper RP relationship building will not occur.● Lastly, no murdering Fairuza/no permanent disabling/maiming of her. Most severities/injuries are ok -- discuss first. She's mere mortal, but I'm not retiring Fai yet.

About me: Hi. I'm gettingstabbed. It's my internet handle so I can introduce myself by saying that. It's also my Discord username if you want to message me. I'm in the EST time zone, and my pronouns are she/they.I've been roleplaying since I was a pre-teen via Vampire Tavern (AOL chatrooms). I've also RPed in multiple TTRPGs and in City of Heroes/Villains as well. I'm aging myself right now, huh?While I fight turning into an old bore, I still don't qualify for senior discounts, and my body aches match my 25+ years of dice-rolling, writing emotes, and playing make-believe via virtual dolls on the internet. I love writing, and will drop multi-paragraphs until my heart falls if nobody stops me. In any case, I default to mirror the energy I'm receiving without realizing it.I love playing with different systems, mechanics, and methods in RP. I appreciate anyone who lets me use them as a guinea pig for RP system/mechanic ideas. I am a loud fanatic for the Forged in the Dark's system, and implement it where I can in FFXIV when I GM.
