Informal Personality Traits
Bound by the belief that every spark of life is woven together by the threads of fate, Lorelei seeks every chance she can to untangle these threads. She knows the signs, can read the stars when they guide, and can sometimes see an inter-connectivity between wishes and needs, but struggles to make a difference with her skills. Not one to want to change the world, she desires to make tiny ripples that will, perhaps once day, affect more than just any one person. Her own threads are intangible, unforeseen in every attempt, and so she tries to see a glimpse when scrying for others. Being of service to others might unlock clues to her own destiny, and that hope keeps her moving forward.INFJ ♦The Advocate.♦ Extravert(6%) iNtuitive(47%) Feeling(25%) Perceiving(3%).♦ INFJ's tend to see helping others as their purpose in life, but while people with this personality type can be found engaging rescue efforts and doing charity work, their real passion is to get to the heart of the issue so that people need not be rescued at all. They are decisive and strong-willed, but will rarely use that energy for personal gain – INFJs will act with creativity, imagination, conviction and sensitivity not to create advantage, but to create balance. Creative. Insightful. Determined and Passionate. INFJs like to know that they are taking concrete steps towards their goals, and if routine tasks feel like they are getting in the way, or worse yet, there is no goal at all, they will feel restless and disappointed.Tropes: You Can't Fight Fate, Damsel Errant, Wide Eyed Idealist, The City vs The Country

Plot Hooks
♦ Are you from, live around, or visit The Peaks, or the Lochs of Gyr Abania often? Then you might have heard of, or perhaps purchased help from the Soothsayer of Ala Gannha.
♦ Travel to and from Vesper Bay? You'll hear of a fortune teller selling readings from the locals.
♦ Are you a fellow pugilist? Perhaps you've trained together under the same teacher. Perhaps you have sparred against one another.
♦ You're a rich noble that deigned to hire a fortune teller to give you direction on getting richer.
♦ You're a traveling merchant that came upon Lorelei on the road and she volunteered to escort your caravan to safety.
♦ A student of the Athenaeum Astrologicum; Lorelei has just joined the ranks to learn more about Ishgardian Astrology.
Connections with the Character
Jamaivaux Morrelle: The Husband
An arrangement to share the skill of poetry did bring them together at first; an opportunity to enjoy the company of a new acquaintance. Yet fate is ever surreptitious, soon weaving them together as teacher and student, Jamaivaux promising to teach Lorelei in the ways of the Monks, something she had often wanted. Lessons of chakra, and of the Gods, occupied many days and nights, evolving their partnership into more. Feelings grew, talents expanded, and then on their 1st year anniversary, they decided to marry. She has blessed him with the rituals of her homeland, and he has blessed her with a portion of his soul-stone. Presently they move toward the future with the promise of full love and support for the other.

Inspirational Music
Lorelei's Personal song:
It holds us like a phantom
The touch is like a breeze
It shines its understanding
See the moon smiling
Open on all channels
Ready to receive
And we're not at the mercy
Of your shimmers or spells
Your shimmers or spellsWe are of the earth
To her we do return
The future is inside us
It's not somewhere else
One day at a time
We call upon the people
People have this power
The numbers don't decide
Your system is a lie
The river running dry
The wings of a butterflyAnd you may pour us away like soup
Like we're pretty broken flowers
We'll take back what is ours
Take back what is ours
One day at a time
