Aina Stonebreaker

Highlander Hyur
Age: 40s
Gender: Female
Height: 5’7
Weight: 160 ponz
Eyes: Amber brown
Hair: Coal blackBe it land, sea, or air, Captain Aina Stonebreaker relishes being in motion. A salvager by trade, there are few places on this star beyond her reach, and fewer where she isn’t willing to go. Her devil-may-care attitude is tempered by the experience of soldiering and sailing alike. Unflappable in the face of crisis — welcoming it, even — Aina feels most at home in the chaos of the moment.Once a scion of a noble house lost to the purges of King Theodoric, Aina witnessed firsthand the despair the Garleans wrought in their conquest of Ala Mhigo. Per tradition of clans of Gyr Abania, a name is earned. From joining the Ala Mhigan resistance to marching on the trenches of Bozja and cliffs of Zadnor, Aina vowed to prove her mettle, again and again, to win the freedom of those conquered and enslaved. Though she has since departed the theaters of war, Aina will never stand for seeing hard-won liberties taken away.Do not mistake her kindness and patience for frailty of heart. In Aina sits a deep-seated pit of rage and violence, of cruelty and insatiable bloodlust. Only her goals and her concern for the welfare of her crew have set her sights to be palatable for the greater star.

Search and RescueWhether it be Allagan ruins, wreckage, or clean up you require, Captain Stonebreaker and her crew are available for expeditions into the unknown. Though primarily tapped for recovering relics or disassembling magitek, Aina has been known to accept contracts to find missing persons, make deliveries or assist in tracking dangerous game.Captain Stonebreaker has also been rumored to engage in more illicit activities, including smuggling and transporting packages of the most delicate nature. These services demand a higher premium, but rest assured that discretion will be of the utmost priority.A Woman of Wealth and TasteWhile no stranger to austerity and often traveling lightly herself, Aina finds great pleasure in experiencing the finest of what master craftsmanship has to offer. Be it a custom-forged weapon, libations, food, jewelry or fashion, she wants nothing but the best — not only for her, but to share with her crew. Hard work should be rewarded appropriately.Do you ply a trade? Make your pitch to Aina. Be forewarned: she does not take kindly to getting scammed, and will gladly roam to the ends of the star with a smile to get her investment back.The C, the C, the Open CIn her youth, Aina was once called Storm Sergeant. Unfortunate circumstances led to her departure from the Maelstrom, but gifted her with the love of open water and the sky. Perhaps you once served with her or have heard the epithet of Aina of the Bloody Stones.Occasionally accused of chasing waterfalls, Aina enjoys taking long walks on the shores near a body of water — rivers and lakes, oceans and the edges of floating islands. The sights and sounds of nature are one of the few things to quell her restless heart.Dearly BelovedEvery vehicle the Captain commandeers is lovingly named the Ailred. Though she’ll immediately shut down the conversation if asked directly, her crew knows that she has a twin sister whose whereabouts are unknown.Aina knows in her heart of hearts that Ailred is alive. Yet every attempt to find her has led to a dead end, as if she had disappeared from the star. The last time she heard from her, Ailred Stoneturner lived at the Dravanian Sharlayan colony prior to the Exodus, where she was a historian and fencer and a popular fixture in the Answering Quarter.Do you have history with Dravania Sharlayan, are a scholar in the history of Gyr Abania or Gridania familiar with Ailred’s published work, a scholar of voidsent, or a diviner of sorts? Aina will consider every lead she can and pursue it until it can yield no more.No Stone UnturnedMinerva sas Urseius. In that there are star-crossed lovers, so, too, are there fated adversaries. Time and time again has the Tribunus evaded Aina’s grasp. The Captain is not above taking bounty hunting contracts for other war criminals or going to criminal organizations in search for the one responsible for her life’s tragedies.Are you an adversary yourself, someone with a common cause, or wish to take advantage of the blind rage the very mention of the Garlean’s name sends Aina into?
