// Context: Ajhure did something at the Shiokaze Hostelry that REALLY shouldn't be done in public, and now she doesn't want to face Hancock. She is in peak shitbird mode here.

// Ajhure's carbuncle, Twinkletoes, does double-duty as her summoner egi and scholar fairy. She used dissipation on him once. Now when she tries to cast that spell, he materializes a dagger in his mouth as a deterrent. Eating him is not only difficult, but dangerous!

// G'raha started using his gravity magic for ceiling sex with Ajhure, much to her delight. Buuuuuuut... while he was still getting the hang of it, he did lose focus once and drop her. She thinks this is hilarious and will never let him live it down. 🤭

// When Ajhure's researching, she uses a pencil instead of quill to write in her notebook so she can make adjustments to diagrams and equations. While she's reading or thinking during these research sessions, she often taps her pencil against her notebook or desk.

// Which is why I'm making September #ajhurelore month. If I do NOT post a little bit of info about Ajhure any day this month, please feel free to bully me about it. 😄
Since I'm starting this on the 2nd, I'll post two tidbits today. To keep things organized, they will all be added to this thread.

// OK fam. I've been meaning to post a little #ajhurelore tidbit every day, both to help me flesh out her HC and to give the one or two people on the internet who want to learn more about her the opportunity to so do. The thing is, I never quite get around to it.

// 4'11" She's smol, but mighty. 💪
Don't expect her to be intimidated by you just because you're twice her height. She will fry your ass with her carbuncle. 🔥

// Ajhure is incapable of saying "hero" or "heroic" without at least a BIT of sarcasm. She doesn't use air quotes, but you can heeeaaaaarrrrr the air quotes in her tone.

// Ajhure has done a great deal of experimental arcanistry (both summoning and scholaring), so if she ever tidied up her notes and put it in a monograph, it could earn her an Archon mark.

// Ajhure's most common recurring nightmare is failing to save her friends and watching them die because of it. She knows someone has been added to her heart's friend list when they enter the rotation of people she watches die every night.

// Of all the hells, the Hell of Ice sounds the most miserable to her. She HATES the cold.
She should probably watch out for the Hell of Wind though, with her history of piracy.

// Same goes for any OCs from the east. Ajhure's originally from Yanxia, and Garlean fuckery in Othard is seminal to her backstory. If not for Garlemald, she might have grown up to be a farmer in the same backwater village where she was born, just like countless generations before her.

// Where Ajhure goes, Dion goes, whether across space, time, or alternate dimensions. And since Dion is Ajhure’s shard from the 7th (the reflection that was rejoined when Dalamud fell), it would probably be harder to explain if G'raha HADN'T yoinked Dion along with her.

// Her answer was the canon "Think what you will. But I'm not letting you leave this place." And I'm happy with that being her answer. She, however, *deeply* regrets it. She wishes she could have been honest with Zenos, honest with herself. He really was her friend.

// Before recycling her for FFXIV, Ajhure *was* a D&D character. That's where her last name, Melshimber, comes from. (Melshimber is one of the noble houses in Waterdeep.) D&D Ajhure was a School of Necromancy wizard.
Now, the OG Ajhure was a dark elf enchanter in Everquest.

// Ajhure doesn't try to force herself to sleep. Down that path lies (even greater) madness. She throws herself into a task (research, hunting, making 10,000 tisanes) until she falls over.

This is classic Ajhure btw. Going to great lengths to avoid hurting a belligerent drunk she barely knows while having approximately (checks notes) zero regard for her own safety.
And helping someone in the most chaos-gremlin way possible is pretty on-brand, too.

// Ajhure's singing voice isn't all that great. It's not terrible. It won't make your ears bleed. She can hold a tune, but her tambre is not great and her breath support is nonexistent. And she's most likely to sing when she's drunk, which doesn't help.

// Amazing!
I hc Ajhure as always too cold and loving warm, sunny weather, but it's not because she's a lizard (even though I make lizard jokes). It's because she's tiny and has no body fat, so she's shit for retaining heat.

And it has me thinking about how much manhandling Twinkletoes tolerates for Ajhure's sake. She LOVES kids, loves making them smile and giggle. But Twinkletoes hates how grabby and sticky they are.

// This is not an easy question to answer for Ajhure since she essentially has no memories pre-ARR. So does kid-Ajhure have her childhood memories back? Does she then keep those memories when the spell wears off? And then there's the question of age.

// So to give you a sense of how fucked up Ajhure is, when she realized she was Hydaelyn's tool, her reaction was, "That makes sense. I'm expendable, after all."
No, that's not sarcasm. That's how she actually feels about it.

// Can she? Yes, absolutely. And with a great deal of skill.
Should you let her? Probably not. She drives like a maniac. *Anything can be a race track if you go fast enough.*
