Views on RP combat and injuries: If it can be done within the engine, go for it.
Views on IC romance: From an OOC point of view... Wouldn't be the first time. This particular character, however, is a widow, with a young child. She's not interested.
Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc): Cai's family is already determined. No outsiders claiming ties please.
Views on lore: Work within it where I can (ie: where I actually know the damn lore)
Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): /Say is, unless otherwise stated, always IC, as are communications within Black Diablos RP. /Yell, /Shout, FC and Black Diablos LS are not IC. /Tell may be IC, depending on situation and context.

VI. Character Details: Relationships
Family:
Theophanu Truespear (Theo). Younger sister. Gridanian Adventurer and former member of the Black Cat Couriers. Retired due to a badly healed shoulder injury that prevents her from holding a lance properly. Currently staying with her daughter and Cai's son.
Nerisstina Nightowl (Neri). Youngest sister. Ul'Dahn Adventurer and former member of the Black Cat Couriers. Lost an eye during the Calamity, wasn't able to compensate well enough to continue adventuring (though she did try). Retired back home to help care for her niece and nephew.
Ellannan Tigersoul. Son. Born 4 months after the Calamity. Currently staying with his retired aunts.
Krisnys Truespear. Niece. Born 6 months after the Calamity. Theophanu's daughter. Currently living with her mother and aunt.
Jonathan Tigersoul (Deceased). Cai's husband. A Chief Sergeant in the Maelstrom who died at the battle of Carteneau. Ellannan is his son. Cai took his last name as a reminder of his sacrifice.
Farex Truespear (Deceased). Brother-in-law. A Second Lieutenant in the Order of the Twin Adder. Like Jonathan, he also died in the battle of Carteneau. Krisnys is his daughter. Theophanu took his last name as a memorial, following Cai's example.
VII. Character Details: Background/History/Timeline
An adventurer before the Calamity, Cai didn't make the cut to join her new husband in the battle at Carteneau (being five months pregnant didn't help matters either). Following the Calamity, she retreated to her home to await the birth of her child. Following the boy's birth, she began making plans with her sisters to return to Eorzea.
Five years later, she and her sisters left Ellannan and Krisnys in the care of their parents to return to the Eorzean Adventurer's Guild, and establish their new business: The Black Cat Couriers. Specialists in acquisition and delivery. The plan was for each of the girls to operate out of a different city-state. Cai's base of operations was Limsa Lominsa, and surrounding La Noscea.
Sadly, the plan was short-lived. Neri had lost an eye during the Calamity when a piece of debris struck her face, and she was struggling to compensate well enough for adventuring work. She made a valiant effort, but eventually was forced to face the cruel fact that she was going to get herself killed if she continued.
Theophanu, on the other hand, suffered a serious injury to her right shoulder while exploring the Tam-Tara Deepcroft. Her attempt at field first-aid held up at first glance, but when she eventually got to a healer, she was informed that the injured bone and muscle had healed incorrectly. She would never hold a lance again, much less fight.
Faced with the end of their adventuring days, the two sisters returned to their home, and the kids, leaving Caiemita as the only remaining Black Cat in Eorzea. Determined to stay and fight for the realm her husband died protecting (and earn enough coin to pay for her son's upbringing), Caiemita began marketing her skills to various Free Companies.
The Black Diablos, under Kassandra Enora, accepted Cai as an unofficial Quartermaster and supplier of goods. For a time, she was also given charge of the garden.
Caiemita has recently returned from an extended absence while dealing with a family matter. Any attempt to ask her about what happened has been met with either a curt end to the conversation, or a blunt change of subject.
VIII. Character Details: Combat
Cai is a skilled fighter, utilising a number of different weapon styles and approaches. Her goal is to master every Discipline available in Eorzea: Hand, Land, War and Magic. She excels at both taking and dealing damage, primarily as a Marauder and Arcanist respectively, but she is a poor healer, despite studying the Scholar's arts in tandem with the Summoner's.
X. Notes
I have omitted her time in the Echoes of Tomorrow from this bio, as it is ultimately inconsequential.
Only a handful of people know she has a kid. Even fewer know about her niece.
Following the opening of Ishgard's gates, Cai has become an infrequent sight at the estate hall. The reason for this is made clear by the note on her desk in the company stockroom:
"Gates of Ishgard open. Opportunity for new materials. Gone to establish sources. I'thumna will provide basics for a restocking fee. Don't wait up. -Cai"
((OOC: The stock room is Caiemita's "Private Chamber", serving as her office and sleeping quarters as well as a repository of materials. I'thumna is the Material Supplier within this room. The note is essentially an IC explanation of why she isn't around much. When this is no longer relevant, this notice will be removed))
