Xolia

Xolia played by xián

## Overview

*Xolia is a type of a person who rarely speaks much, however, her mind is always running, wishing to say way more. Xolia is a modest and down to earth woman who hardly gets surprised by anything; clumsy antics or quirky behaviour don't really draw a rise out of her, and she prefers to mind her own business most of the time. She often thinks about something, her mind is always running. She has an endless hunger for knowledge and learning, and she has her own little world that makes her comfortable and where she knows she is entirely safe.*

*Although she appears to be reserved, she isn't shy either; she can talk and withhold a conversation and once when she is adapted to her surroundings, or to people, she allows herself to laugh, joke, andbe a little bit more social. She isn't the most expressive in public but she is definitely very expressive in privacy and has a tendency to wave her hands around when explaining something.*

*She likes to think about things a lot, and question them. She's a good listener, and quite often can read people fully , and tell if someone is lying to her or not. Xolia doesn't have a bad nature, but she isn't too kind either, as she tries to keep her distance. However, she remembers things well and often makes sure to repay those who show her kindness.*

*When she has people who are close to her, Xolia likes to show more colours of personality; she can be supportive, and she likes to hear out people and question them until they come to some resolve. Xolia is wise, and she is a good guide to others even if she has her own unresolved issues. Xolia has a good spirit in base and would help out if she can. She is a very dedicated worker, fighter, and responsible woman.*

## History

*Xolia, born as Xiahoshi, was born on Fishman Island, in the Ryugu Kingdom, where most of the merfolk lived. Her father is a royal guard while her mother is a doctor, who had a hobby of sewing and knitting. Born as the fourth child in the family and second daughter, Xolia was considered the baby of the family for the longest. Something that she didn't appreciatebecause it often made her feel useless; her mother was a very doting one, and while it was a good thing, it also had its own bad side. All of her siblings, including their father, are royal guards and serve the royal family with pride. Xolia wanted to be like them, but she was physically inferior and often struggled to use her trident in the beginning. Her parents tried to coax her into something 'easier' as they liked to say, but it only pushed her back. She was still a toddler when she and her family came to understand that she was colourblind, having deuteranopia. But that didn't slow her down not even once.*

*She was ten years old when she used the observation haki for the first time, and it was the time when her father had taken her a little bit more seriously. He showed her how to use a trident, and it became her signature weapon. During her training, she was introduced to merman combat, but to Fishman jiu-jitsu as well. She found it befittingand eventually tried to learn some basics of it. When she was fifteen years old, a marine ship crashed into Fishman island, as they were heading toward the new world. Seeing humans for the first time made Xolia very curious about them, and she wanted to discover the world beyondthe Ryugu Kingdom. Decidingto go, she informedher family about it, but they disagreed, claiming she would get hurt. The idea of her being the baby of the family had hit her once again, and that's what made her snap and justsneak out. She begged the marines to bring her with them. They did, and when they reported back to base, there was whole havoc about having merfolk in, but she was allowed later on.*
