Appearance

Physical Description

Robin's build is petite, with little in obvious muscle tone, save for what little muscle she may have in her hands and arms due to years of extensive calligraphy.

Identifying Characteristics

Robin's most distinctive physical feature is her hair, which lacks any form of pigment. Her eyes, by contrast, are vibrant and bright shade of emerald green.

Physical quirks

Even when cut short, Robin's hair grows extraordinarily quickly. If she were to shave her head bald, her hair would reach her shoulders in short time.
 
Despite being unable to lift much of anything, not particularly graceful and terrible at feats of athleticism, Robin is able to sustain a march, hold her breath, and resist disease much better than many people.

Apparel & Accessories

Robin can often be seen wearing her vestments, which features a pair of deep purple hakama and pink kosode. She wears a lighter purple obi, from which she has fastened a large pouch on either side. On her right, a pouch containing a large copper orb; on her left, a coinpurse. When traveling she wears a backpack which carries various supplies.
 
She also possesses an outfit for the winter

Specialized Equipment

Testament: A mythril bangle decorated with beads symbolizing people she loves.

Hope: A suit of wover mythril armor that has been installed into her robes.

Xochiquetzal: A dagger made by one of her father's previous lives as a gift for one of her mother's previous lives. It is named after this past life of her mother's.

Magic Augmenter Apparatus.

Special abilities

Whenever Robin channels her arcane powers, the air around her swells up, buffeting her hair and any loose clothing. This surge of air only seems strong enough to affect Robin herself, however, and is far too weak to be utilized in any way.
 
When Robin experiences intense emotions, she seems to electrify the air surrounding her, though this effect does not seem to cause any harm to those nearby.

Mentality

Personal history

Robin Weiss was born on the 12th of Vernari in the year 110 F.E. in the small Aurumi village of Vayu'Ped. Robin lived their with her biological father, who neglected and abused her. She was shunned by most of the superstitious villagers, who saw her as an ill omen. She had only one friend during her time there, which she met through the church.
 
She has been a member of The Holy Zygallic Church since the year 111 F.E. and began tutelage at the prestigious Saptagiri Monastery in 116 F.E. excelling as a student and impressing her instructors. After declaring her Third Catechism in 126 F.E., she accepted the mentorship of Bishop Dorothea Kramer.
 
She visited the Artemesia Sanctuary in 128 F.E., working under then Bishop Sophia De Borell III. Collaborating with Ulrich Ron Lamperos and several others, she completed a study on meteorological phenomenon in Morado. She then published a research paper on the group's findings.
 
She left Verous on Apreri 29th, 130 F.E. on Aunt Hare. Bidding farewell to her longtime mentor and friend Dorothea, she worked as the scribe of Siesko O'Lak's ship. During this time she met and worked closely with Malopher. She also met Delphine Finley under the guise of Sophia De Borel on the voyage, and later agreed to join her pilgrimage when Aunt Hare docked in Alluminos.
 
In Alluminos, she met Bishop Dekoga of the Dusk Mage, and used this connection to gain a better understanding of Abraxus during the party's investigation of the mysterious substance. It was also here that she met and befriended Elizabeth Ron Dolfore under the guise of Avalissa Alonim.
 
When the party arrived in Bend River, Robin helped the party to prove Malopher's innocence in the murder he was implicated in. After the issue was resolved, Robin revealed to Malopher elements of her own past, and deepened her bond with him in doing so.
 
In Yonara, Robin answered the pleas of a young girl to defend her mother, Lidda Hilvar, in court. It was here that she reunited with Ulrich and met Foltore Ron Hyouhaku, a former colleague of Dorothea's. She and the party traveled to the Karthanian plains to end the threat of the Talesharo to the village. Harnessing the power of the kavalah that rested in the ruins, Robin summoned the Thunderbird, and pacified the Talesharo army peacefully. She then succumbed to the rigors of casting such advanced magic, nearly dying in the process.
 
In the wake of this adventure, Robin learned that her mother was the daughter of one of the Te'Otel Sharo. Once she recovered, she spoke with Chieftain Vides'De, then went with the party back to Yonara, where she was able to form a compromise in court that worked to Lidda's favor. She sent the first Magic Missive ever to Dorothea Kramer. She also learned that Ulrich was being possessed by some sinister force.
 
In Faircaster, Robin befriended Arakan Harloff. She also learned more of the Occulo society from Carson. She learned more of sorcery from an ancient tome in the library, and shared these findings with Delphine. She also assisted Kazimier in the others in putting down the threat of Los Canteros.

Education

Robin is a polyglot who is fluent in seven languages.
 
She studied at the prestigious Saptagiri Monastery under Bishop Dorothea Kramer. She has always taken her studies extremely seriously, but her fervor for self improvement and education has only increased over the years.

Employment

She is employed by The Holy Zygallic Church. She works specifically as a Dusk Mage acolyte. Her duties typically involve drafting documents, translation, scrivening, or aiding senior acolytes in scholarly research.
 
She worked primarily at the Saptagiri Monastery in Aurumo, though she spent a brief time at the Artemesia Sanctuary in Ferox.
 
Currently, she is working as a guard for Avalissa Alonim, en route to Settledusk. She has also agreed to tutor Joy.
 
She has also been employed by Lidda Hilvar as a defense attorney.

Intellectual Characteristics

Robin has a generally well rounded understanding of imperial law and history, though she is far from a historian. She considers herself somewhat of a hobbyist, but not a professional.
 
Her expertise truly lies in her mastery of language. Ironically, her inability to speak is perhaps the most significant obstacle she faces in her day to day life.
 
Robin has a tendency to get along well with people. Despite this, she is not very well versed in the intricacies of interpersonal relationships.
 
She enjoys learning new things from people as well as educating them in her own areas of expertise. Perhaps stereotypically, Robin has a tendency to write exhaustively on topics of interest and occasionally get carried away by her own personal feelings in a matter. This tendency has been curbed in her later years, but still manifests itself frequently.

Morality & Philosophy

"People who join the clergy for power do not deserve that power. As members of the church we have a responsibility to help others in whatever way we might be able to. To make the world a better place. It is... heartbreaking to hear that such people were so prevalent where you lived."
 

Robin Weiss to Malopher O'Lak

13th of Gusterus, 130 F.E.

 
Robin holds a position of quiet resistance against the rigidity of Feroxian culture, especially pertaining to members of the clergy. She has long battled with the notion of fate, and has ultimately resolved that nothing is destined until someone resolves it to be so. Instead of resigning herself to the whims of the universe, she would rather seek her own fulfillment. She hopes that, one day, she can attain this dream and help others to do the same.
 
Robin holds a quiet contempt for imperialism, specifically in the erasure of the cultures that are consumed in the Feroxian Empire's continued expansion across the world.
 
Robin has demonstrated a rigid observance of etiquette. Despite being at philosophical odds with certain aspects of high Imperial culture, Robin's code of personal etiquette often sees her treating the powers that be with a great degree of respect, though she seems to extend this same level of courtesy to people regardless of their station in relation to hers.
 
Robin has demonstrated on a few occasions the belief that existing power structures ought to be designed to assist the less fortunate. She has gotten upset by the notion of government or religious officials giving way to or actively participating in abuses of their power.

Romance
 

"It is my experience that hearts are not prudent. They do not care about obligations and take no heed to concepts such as propriety. When they have chosen their mark there is naught we can do but succumb to their will or ignore what they say... and though we may ignore them, we never... we never forget."
 

Robin Weiss speaking of love to Avalissa Alonim

14th of Gusterus, 130 F.E.

 
 
On Vernari 12th, 126 F.E., the date of her 16th birthday, Robin swore an oath to Bishop Dorothea Kramer that she would abstain from romance for five years. Despite this, Robin realized two years later that she had fallen in love with none other that Dorothea herself. She desperately tried to deny these feelings and repressed them for a time, before she eventually came to begrudgingly accept the feelings. Though she has reconciled with her feelings for her dear friend and former teacher, she has continued to keep them secret. This secrecy has caused her much suffering.
 
Lying
 
As a Dusk Mage, Robin not only finds willful, harmful deception extremely distasteful, she refrains from doing so herself. While she is prone to misleading others, she strongly prefers to avoid telling outright falsehoods.
 
Robin's distaste for lying was clearly demonstrated when she revealed the party's secret affairs to Dorothea without any specific prompting. She simply did not want to keep secrets from someone she cares about.
 
Drinking
 
Robin avoids the consumption of alcohol under most circumstances, though she does not seem to be opposed to its consumption by others. This was once demonstrated when she bought Malopher a drink. To date, she has been observed drinking in limited amounts in Malopher's company.
 
On Gusterus 29th, in Whispermill, Robin became upset with Delphine and Kazimier for getting drunk the previous night, but did not tell them why. The following night, Robin herself became drunk and revealed how she felt about the party.
 
Speaking with Ulrich Ron Lamperos
 
On Gusterus 16th, 130 F.E. Robin was told by Mr. Bitter that she could not speak to Ulrich any more as punishment for bringing up his occasional possession of the young priest. Robin holds quite a bit of resentment for Mr. Bitter as a result, but seems to keep herself bound to the order, if only for the sake of Ulrich's personal safety.

Robin Weiss to Sophia De Borel

Walk and Talk in the Rain

14th of Gusterus, 130 F.E.

In Walk and Talk in the Rain, Robin explained to Sophia that her "disguise" is just her trying to look the way she feels until she can be that person. When Sophia asked if such a magic existed, Robin confirmed that, to her knowledge, it did not. Robin intends to either learn or create a spell that can give her the body she seeks.

Teaching Laypeople

"A... good friend of mine has long espoused the values of teaching the common folk ... Perhaps once everything has calmed down ... I will attempt to see that dream through."

Spirited Connections

15th of Gusterus, 130 FE

Robin intends to climb ranks within the Holy Zygallic Church, at least until the rank of Bishop. She wants to have the ability to found her own monastery. In Spirited Conversations, she told Avalissa that she was considering using that opportunity to spread education to more commoners, though she apparently got the idea from somebody else.

"Alone." The Journals of Robin Weiss

29th of Apreri, 130 FE

Robin is always looking to improve herself. Whether this is expanding her magical talents, learning new things, expanding her worldview, or simply improving her aesthetic appearance. As a Dusk Mage, she sees life as a constant state of growth and change, and she wants to always ensure that she is changing for the better.

Love

"I will not be conquered by such devilish wiles. I will not suffer the indignity."
 

Robin Weiss

"Beast." The Journals of Robin Weiss

29th of Vernari, 128 F.E.

Despite her denial, as well as an outward appearance of disinterest in romantic affairs, Robin harbors a powerful romantic love for Dorothea Kramer. Robin does her best to conceal this fact, due to the scandalous nature of her feelings, but the party and a few of their contacts have managed to catch on, much to Robin's irritation. Though Robin once held a lot of contempt for her feelings, she has since began the slow process of accepting them. As her relationship with Dorothea continues to evolve, Robin is constantly scrutinizing her words and behaviors to ensure that she continues to be a good friend to Dorothea without crossing any lines.

Quotes & Catchphrases

"Anything worth something is worth everything."

 

"If people are not suffering as a result of a lack of specific knowledge and have naught to gain through its proliferation, there is no need for myself nor any other to disclose such information."
 

- Robin Weiss, in correspondence with Priestess Sophia De Borel, Gusterus 2nd, 130 F.E.

Personality Quirks

Robin tends to dress conservatively, regardless of weather conditions. She is accustomed to life in a monastery filled with people who tended to wear clothing that was looser, with few major gendered distinctions in attire choices.
 
Robin was unable to verbally communicate under the natural powers of her own body for most of her life. However, she is an exceptionally articulate writer. Perhaps as a way to compensate for her limited ability to convey her ideas through speech, she has a tendency to be overly verbose in written correspondence. Since gaining the ability to talk, she has shown a tendency to be verbose at times, though without a filter of casting a spell or writing it is also clear that her words are not as meticulously thought out.
 
Despite being proficient in the art of deception, Robin seems to avoid telling outright lies.
 
Robin's sense of humor tends to be dry, and generally for her own personal amusement.
 
Robin honors verbal contracts, even when it causes trouble for her.

Hygiene

Due to her upbringing in Aurumo and her long life in service to the Church of the Dusk Mage, Robin is accustomed to a life of ritualistic cleanliness. She takes great care to ensure that her hair and her clothes especially do not become overly soiled if she can avoid doing so.
 
Perhaps due to these hygienic standards, Robin seems to keep her general appearance in an orderly, well-groomed state. Despite being rather frugal, Robin is liable to spend gold on luxuries such as makeup and perfume.

Chalchiuhtlicue
 
Robin's grandmother, who Robin met after touching the Glory Dias in the Karthanian Plains. She commanded Robin to find her voice before telling Robin that she had been waiting for one such as her for a long time. They were abruptly brought apart again, much to their mutual dismay.
 
Robin seems to have taken her word at face value, believing that she is her grandmother.
 

Former Kokuja

Bishop Dorothea Kramer
 
Robin met Kannushi Dorothea Laoshun Kramer when she came to initially retrieve Robin and bring her to Saptagiri Monastery. For the majority of Robin's life Dorothea was one of many instructors at the Monastery. She had a long unspoken appreciation for the way that Dorothea always seemed to understand her in a way that her peers and other instructors didn't. During this time, Robin saw the bishop as a role model of sorts, ever aspiring to be more like the woman who saved her from her old life.
 
After Robin declared her intentions for her denial in 114 F.E., the dynamic between her and the bishop shifted slightly, and she began to see Dorothea as a mentor and friend. As her only friend, Dorothea's advice was indispensable. Robin worked tirelessly to meet Dorothea's expectations and leapt at any opportunity to assist her.
 
When Robin left Saptagiri for Artemesia and worked under Sophia De Borel III, it was the first time that the two of them had spent a long time without seeing one another. It was this shock that caused Robin to realize that she had fallen in love with Dorothea. She struggled with this revelation for many months afterward, even after reuniting with Dorothea and resuming her work at Saptagiri. It was one of the contributing factors to Robin leaving for Morado.
 
Before the voyage, Dorothea gifted Robin a shield and taught her how to use it. It has become Robin's most cherished possession. In return, Robin gifted Dorothea a pen and a lock of her own hair. Since then, the two maintained regular contact via Sendings that Dorothea would send Robin. Robin would later invent Magic Missive for the purpose of being able to communicate with Dorothea more effectively.
 
At first, Robin maintained her communications privately, withholding the identity of her contact from the party. She was also cautious about the details she shared with Dorothea. As the party became embroiled in more treacherous situations, Robin feared that the wrong person learning Dorothea's identity could cause her trouble in the Empire, or that Dorothea may come to learn something that could make her a target of an evil scheme.
 
When Robin and the party learned the identities of the original Kokuja, Ela came to become suspicious of Dorothea. Robin, however, has not seemed to consider Dorothea's past anything worth concern. If anything, it convinced her that Dorothea could handle anything that she could reveal of their journey. She was immediately transparent to Dorothea about her becoming aware of her connections, and shared how it was that she came to learn it, and has not brought it up since.
 
After the events of Three Point River, Robin came to believe that she should be fully transparent with Dorothea, revealing all of the details of the journey to her. She has also decided that she needs to be transparent to Dorothea about her feelings for her. However, just as Robin came to these realizations, the party entered the influence of the Whispering Sands Aperture, and Robin's communications with Dorothea were cut off.
 
This lack of communication took its toll on Robin, causing her to become irritable, more cynical, and more prone to reckless behavior. When Robin learned of the Aperture, she became obsessed with overcoming it to restore her communications, regardless of the danger involved.
 
These feelings came to a head after the party went into the Whispering Sands. After an aperture to the Plane of Air split Robin's emotions from her, she was forced to reconcile with all of her feelings - including her love for Dorothea. When a mishap in a dream spell reunited the two of them, Robin attempted to confess her feelings for Dorothea only for Dorothea to fall asleep. Despite this, since their reunion, Robin feels a stronger connection than ever with her dearest friend - even as she actively denies the growing possibility that her feelings are reciprocated.
 
Archbishop Sophia De Borel
 
Archbishop Sophia De Borel of the Artemesia Sanctuary is a friend of Dorothea's. In 128 F.E., Sophia commissioned Robin to translate an important document for her on site at the Artemesia Sanctauary in Ferox. Impressed by Robin's work, she and Sophia have had an ongoing work relationship wherein Sophia has entrusted Robin with other works that make their way to her temple. When Ulrich made mention of her aspirations of becoming an Archbishop, Robin said that she wishes her luck in the endeavor.
 
When her status as an Archbishop was later confirmed by Dorothea, Robin expressed her congratulations, obviously happy for her.
 
Sophia would later be possesed by Vlad in an attempt to assassinate Dorothea. Though Robin initially reacted with hostility towards her, once she realized that her actions were not her own it seemed as though Robin had grown concerned fro the Archbishop's safety.
 
Siesko O'Lak
 
During the party's travel to Alluminos from Peschaniko, Robin worked for Captain Siesko O'Lak as a scribe. During this time, she came to respect the man as an employer as well as a person. When he offered her a full time position on Aunt Hare, Robin politely declined, but told Siesko that she might have loved to join him, were it not for her personal ambitions conflicting. She entrusted the captain with a letter addressed to Dorothea and parted ways with him amicably.
 
Asano Harloff
 
Robin and Asano first met one another when the party arrived at Stonescast. The two were friendly with one another right away, as Robin agreed to not only translate to the party on behalf of Asano, but was immediately on board with helping her with Los Canteros and their gang. Asano provided Robin with materials to produce a scroll of Magic Missive, as well as a handmade set of winter clothes. It was also Asano who revealed to Robin that Dorothea was once a member of the Kokuja.
 
Foltore Ron Hyouhaku
 
When Robin initially met Foltore, she regarded him with deference and politeness, as he outranks her in the Dusk Mage Church. Since then, the two of them have not interacted. When Robin learned of his implication in the greater conspiracy, she seemed to take it at face value, though she questioned Ulrich's possible involvement.
 
When Dorothea told Robin to be careful around Foltore and mentioned that he was the one who had asked her to marry him many years ago, her view of him changed completely. Seeing Dorothea shaken by the mere mention of his name inspired dark feelings in Robin. She now suspects that he could have implicit or explicit dealings with the party's enemies. She wants to treat him with caution until his allegiances become more apparent, but holds contempt for the man once tried to put Dorothea in a gilded cage.
 
After reuniting with Dorothea, and learning more about her past with Foltore, Robin's feelings for him have cooled to a cautious neutrality. She has realized that Dorothea's words of caution were more about protecting her than they were to disparage him.

Followers of the Dusk Mage

 
Lidda Hilvar
 
Robin made an agreement with Lidda's daughter to assist her in a court case, defending her and her meadery from the threat of repossession. Though Lidda was initially resistant to the idea of being helped, Robin stood her ground and insisted on helping. Through their temporary partnership, Robin grew to respect the widowed businesswoman, and went through a great deal of trouble to get to know her and her husband.
 
Robin is not aware that Lidda has converted to the faith of the Dusk Mage, but they parted ways amicably.
 
Ursula
 
Despite knowing very little about her and having little time to actually get to know her, Robin offered Ursula a job as a bodyguard and student. Ursula politely declined, stating that she had a duty to look after the children of Faircaster in the wake of Los Canteros's reign. When asked, Robin happily gave Ursula a copy of the Ars Arcanum and wished her luck while praising her for her priorities. She also told Ursula where the party was going and to keep in touch, leaving her invitation to join them open.

Clergy

 
Ulrich Ron Lamperos
 
Ulrich is a friend of Robin's. They met while assigned at Artemesia Sanctuary. On the 15th of Gusterus, 130 F.E. Robin found out that Ulrich is one of the authors of the White Rose Chronicles. She also discovered that he had been drawing pictures of main character Valeri that bore a strong resemblance to her.
 
On the night of Gusterus 15th, Ulrich confessed to having romantic feelings for Robin since the time they shared together in Artemesia. He also mentioned the possibility of them getting to know one another better once Robin's denial is concluded. Though Robin did not respond to this development in an overtly positive or negative manner, the revelation flustered her rather significantly.
 
On the afternoon of Gusterus 16th, Robin alerted Ulrich to the reality of his so-called blackouts. Mister Bitter took over Ulrich's body and commanded Robin not to speak to Ulrich again and to stop digging into the goings on in Yonara. Robin was promised that non-compliance would result in very bad things happening to Ulrich and possibly herself. Robin seems compliant with Mister Bitter's demands, though it has affected her greatly.
 
Bishop Dafi'E Malgrave
 
Bishop Malgrave is an old friend of Dorothea's. This fact alone made Robin fast friends with him. However, she admires his commitment to helping the poor and disabled of Yonara. She also commended him in maintaining the natural beauty of Yonara and working with the Akacheta to do so.
 
Bela'Luna
 
Since her rescue from the Water Tower Robin has been casually friendly with Bela'Luna, though they have not been particularly close. When Dorothea was pulled into the Great Elemental Mining Aperatus, it was revealed that Dorothea was the one who had killed Bela'Luna's father. Robin and Delphine worked together to help them talk through this history without it coming to blows. Robin gave Bela'Luna some distance after the fact, though the two did talk about the strain between them due to their varying histories with Dorothea.
 
Even so, the two remain friendly, though not without some awkward air between them.
 

The Party

 
Malopher O'Lak
 

"You're one of my best friends."

 
 
Malopher was the first member of the party which Robin met. They worked together on Aunt Hare as members of the crew. Since landfall, Robin has treated Malopher amicably. He was the only party member that Robin intentionally came out to. He was the first to learn of some of the traumas she faced in her childhood, and whenever he has shared elements of his own past Robin has always been compassionate in her response.
 
Robin always regards Malopher in a friendly way, even when confronting him about concerns about his behavior. When the party splits up, she often seems most comfortable with him, and in combat she has often been seen providing him backup and support more often than her other comrades.
 
Delphine Finley (Sophia De Borel)
 

"I know you think you're a bad person, and that you can't trust anyone, and that nobody loves you, and that even if they did they shouldn't. I know because I used to be that person. But you're one of the nicest people I've ever met, and people like you. They don't like you just because you're an oracle, or because you're cute, but because you're a good person."

 
Robin has tended to treat Delphine (as Sophia) with the level of professional respect that might be expected of her. Though she has demonstrated a friendly playfulness around Delphine that she does not frequently show others, she has not been keen on letting Delphine learn any intimate details about her past. After Robin was outed to most of the party, Robin and Delphine had a conversation, where Robin shared some of her personal aspirations. Since then, she seems to have loosened up around her a bit.
 
Delphine was the first party member to whom Robin revealed her connection to Dorothea, and has been transparent with Delphine about her intention of sharing most every detail of their journey with the Bishop. Delphine was also the first person in the party to realize Robin's feelings for Dorothea, and her supportive teasing never seems to fail in getting a rise out of the normally poised priestess.
 
When she was revealed not to be Sophia De Borel, Robin told her that the lies didn't matter to her, because she liked Delphine for who she was, not because of her name. Robin has confided in Delphine more than the other party members, and seems to care deeply about her.
 
Robin has also displayed a rather powerful sense of concern and protectiveness towards Delphine. During the Ta'LeSharo attack, Robin rushed the Ta'LeSharo head-on after they knocked Sophia out. She later described her feelings in her journals, explaining "I felt something within me snap like a twig underfoot ... Without thought, I found myself running past Mister Sivu and unleashing the most powerful spell I could muster". In Makeup and Precautions, when Delphine mentioned going out and investigating the conspiracy, Robin lost all composure and revealed a new side of herself before pleading with Delphine not to take Foltore lightly. In Whispermill, when Ulva struck Delphine with a Banishing Smite and she disappeared, Robin flew into an all out rage, causing herself bodily harm to wreak vengeance on Ulva, despite the danger.
 
When her love for others crystalized into Testament, Robin realized a truth that she had suspected but tried not to acknowledge - she had developed a crush on Delphine. She has opted not to act on this, and instead encouraged Delphine to pursue Bela'Luna.
 
Clem
 

"I'm sorry. Storyteller gave you a raw deal, and we aren't helping."

 
 
Robin seems to regard Clem with respect and curiosity. She has expressed interest in learning languages from Clem, and tends to ask him questions about Morado before anyone else. Differences in their background have caused them to occasionally have disagreements or misunderstandings, but Robin does not seem to let these arguments impact her personal feelings towards him.
 
On the 15th of Gusterus, 130 F.E. Robin and Clem touched base. During this conversation, Robin realized that Clem had noticed more about her than she had thought, calling him "sharp as a tack". After being pressed, she confessed that the person she saw in the dream spell was someone whom she missed from home. She also learned, much to her relief, that Clem has completely brushed off knowing her deadname.
 
Robin and Clem often agree when it comes to the acceptable level of aggression in any given situation, and are often on the same sides of internal debates within the party.
 
Ela Stonetell
 
Robin has regarded Ela with a sort of passive respect one might expect a younger person to have for an elder. For much of the journey, she has demonstrated a general concern for Ela's well-being, but has always backed off whenever Ela would try to brush her problems off, not wanting to pry. This sort of don't-ask-don't-tell relationship persisted until Ela told Robin explicitly about the fatal illness she has and her former life as a pirate. While Robin has expressed her discomfort with Ela's stealing and her tendency to get into trouble, it remains to be seen what she thinks about Ela's past.
 
In Spirited Conversations, Robin revealed to Elizabeth that she does not care for Ela's reckless and illegal activities. She stressed the need to guide those who have strayed from a virtuous path back onto it, provided they are willing to listen. She also told Elizabeth that she does not desire Ela's company, but tolerates her because the other party members seem to be invested in keeping her around.
 
After the events in the ruins in the Karthanian Plains, Robin has found a newfound respect for Ela. She has taken to addressing Ela by her first name instead of her last and is generally more friendly with her. She has expressed regret to Sophia for the unkind words she has said of Ela in the past, and seems interested in assisting her in the future.
 
When the party learned that Dorothea had been in the Kokuja, Ela came to suspect that Dorothea might be her enemy. Robin did not take kindly to this, and has both indirect and direct comments about fighting Ela to the death or seeking revenge if she hurts Dorothea. Despite this tension, she continues to regard Ela as a trusted companion. As Ela has taken on the oath of a Paladin and attempted to turn her life around, Robin seems to be delighted and supportive.
 
Zariya Marlowe
 
Robin took a quick liking to Zariya when she joined the party. It become clear that the two of them shared interests in scholarly pursuits, and had aligning philosophical ideals. Zariya's similarities to Kazimier sometimes mean that she and Robin end up at odds with one another, but it seems that these frictions between their personalities are something that Robin finds endearing.
 
Kazimier Marlowe
 

"You're really grumpy for your age. But guess what? You're a big softy."

 
Robin has had a tendency to leave Kazimier alone for the early stages of the journey. She recognized him as a veteran of the Kaldos Rebellion, and has privately written about feeling safer in his presence. After Robin observed his use of Infernal magic and confronted him about it, Kazimier's harsh reaction seems to have caused her to back off.
 
Robin and Kazimier reconnected a bit en route to Faircaster from Yonara. Robin informed Kazimier that Ulrich seemed to know of a Zariya Marlowe, but regretfully informed him that she knew nothing else about the situation. She also expressed concern for him again, but complied when Kazimier expressed a wish to be left alone.
 
After leaving Faircaster, Robin and Kazimier touched base once again, expressing admiration for one another. They also shared some playful banter, and it would seem that the walls are starting to come down there.
 
Since then, the two have grown somewhat close and they often agree in matters of justice and accountability, though they do not always agree on the appropriate response to transgressions. As a result, they continue to butt heads from time to time, though Robin seems to be intimidated by the older man when he is angry.
 
In the Air Tower, Robin was forced into bitter conflict with a rage-fueled Kazimier. Though they exchanged words of bravado with one another and fought bitterly on the battlefield, Robin delivered a eulogy for him after the party had been forced to kill him. She still considers him to be a dear friend.

Other Allies

 
Elizabeth Ron Dolfore (Avalissa Alonim)
 
Elizabeth was the first person on Morado to see through Robin's disguise. However, Elizabeth used this as an opportunity to give Robin a compact, which she has used since then to enhance her disguise. Elizabeth has actively worked with Robin to keep her secret, and Robin appreciates it immensely. When Elizabeth asked the party to work as her bodyguards, Robin was reluctant but ultimately agreed to do so, she rationalized that she would defend Elizabeth anyway if she were attacked so she may as well be paid to do it.
 
Afterwards she attempted to make herself useful to Elizabeth, both as a sense of obligation due to the younger woman's kindness as well as her general work ethics. She often asks for Elizabeth's opinions, advice, or general information.
 
When Elizabeth revealed her identity to Robin and Delphine, Robin recognized the name. She pledged to keep her identity a secret and implied that once her contract with Elizabeth expires in Settledusk she would still be open to accompanying her afterwards.
 
Robin also gave Elizabeth romantic advice regarding her feelings for Sivu and her betrothal. Robin seemed to display some distaste for political marriages, and encouraged Elizabeth to explore her feelings while she has an opportunity. The implication being that she'll continue to have the feelings regardless, she just has to decide if she'd rather regret following her heart or never knowing what things could have been like with Sivu.
 
In Spirited Conversations, Robin further explained that when the time came for her to make a similar choice she caved to social pressure and did not act upon them, though Elizabeth missed the point. Robin also revealed a great deal about her motivations to Elizabeth. She was the first person in the caravan that Robin has entrusted this information to.
 
Sivu
 
At first, Robin regarded Sivu politely, but respected his general desire to be left alone. Because of this, she knew very little about him. Regardless of this, she encouraged Elizabeth to explore her feelings for him. Whether this is a signal of trust towards Sivu or a sign of her being a closet romantic remains to be seen.
 
After Elizabeth put in a good word for her, Robin took the time to talk to Sivu and ask him about Chalchiuhtlicue and her own magical heritage. Since then, Robin has seemed to have quickly taken a liking to Sivu, having had a few conversations on a variety of cultural topics in the week or so since their initial talk.
 
On Gusterus 22nd, 130 F.E., Robin entrusted her shield to Sivu for safekeeping whilst she maintained her disguise as Valeri. Sivu, seemingly understanding the weight of the situation, pledged to protect the shield with his life, to which Robin promised in turn to give everything she had to rescue Elizabeth in Three Point River. After Sivu's death in Three Point River, Robin has continued to be vocal about the necessity of resurrecting him.
 
Joy
 
Since Joy approached Robin, she has gone out of her way to be friendly towards him. When he asked her to teach him how to read she agreed without hesitation. Her first priorities when reaching Yonara included buying supplies specifically to assist her in teaching Joy.
 
When Joy ran away from the party, Robin became angry with Kazimier for mishandling the situation. Since then, she has had a passive concern for the young man, but the maneuverings of the party's enemies took precedence.
 
Storyteller
 
Robin has shown interest and curiosity regarding the older man. She seems to enjoy listening to his stories and music, and respects his wealth of knowledge about the goings on on Morado.
 
During a Dream spell, when Robin was trying to reach out to Dorothea, she heard Storyteller's disembodied voice tell her to wait, implying that other matters are more important. Robin awoke from that dream angry at Storyteller, and expressed her frustration with Clem.
 
Vides'De of the Rosenhills Clan
 
Robin holds a great deal of respect for chieftain Vides'De. She has sought his advice and enjoyed listening to his stories, and tends to speak to him with a mixture of polite deference and friendliness. The fact that Vides'De allowed her to reunite with Dorothea plays at least some part into her fondness for the old man, but she seems to genuinely enjoy his company as well.
 
Arakan Harloff
 
Arakan managed to quickly endear themselves to Robin as a result of a lengthy discussion of magical theory and a heart to heart about their similar struggles with their gender identity. Robin has been forthcoming about her own identity and with giving Arakan advice. She also leapt at the opportunity to assist them with their research into the ritual Los Canteros used to transform into a weredemon. Since that night, Robin has been very friendly with Arakan.
 

Enemies

 
Mr. Bitter
 
Robin first met Mr. Bitter through Ulrich's possessed body. He threatened Robin and Ulrich, and ordered her not to speak with Ulrich again. When they spoke, Robin was cautiously respectful to the man. She did not challenge or antagonize him. In fact, she was submissive and compliant. After the incident, she left Lidda's Meadery in tears. Now that Robin knows they name of her enemy, and someone she cares for is in direct danger, she wants the man dead.
 
Ulva Clynestra
 
When the party first arrived in Whispermill, Robin had already heard stories of Ulva from the Zygallic Church. They had a moment after Robin rescued Pythia during a failed summoning at the local church. Robin later threw this in Ulva's face when Ulva and Madea attempted to sacrifice Pythia to fuel an ennic ritual. Robin has lost all respect for Ulva since, and seeks only her destruction.
 
Medea Ron Ostricla
 
At first, Robin advocated playing ball with Medea in Whispermill. It seemed the most pragmatic option to acquire the Aegis. However, the longer the party spent there, the more she came to realize that Medea's evil ran far too deep to justify any peace she claimed to spread. Robin has come to see Medea as a monster whom the world would be best without, though she fears the day they might meet again.

Religious Views

"It is for this reason one must never remain. Even if the path forward is unclear, it is imperative one take the steps forward, if only to step out into the new. Like the dusk, the lights behind us are but guidance to our past, and we must have faith in our ability to make sense of the darkness. It is my experience that as you walk out onto the way, the way will appear before you. As all things in life are."
 

Ars Arcanum, Visions, Chapter 5, Stanza 111, Verse 12317 - Stanza 112, Verse 1.

 
As a member of The Holy Zygallic Church, Robin is well educated in the religious practices of the Divine Quartet, especially those pertaining to The Dusk Mage. Robin also grew up in a rather rural region within Aurumo, giving her some insight into the spiritual beliefs of the region in particular.
 
Being taught by Dorothea has instilled in Robin a passion for the Dusk Mage's ideals of constant learning and improvement. It constantly drives her to better herself. It has also instilled in her a belief that people who have sinned in the past can be repent and be redeemed by their own actions.
 
Despite a strong adherence to the ideals of the Dusk Mage and a history of training under the Holy Zygallic Church, Robin has demonstrated a curiosity and respect for the spiritual beliefs of the Akacheta.

Social Aptitude

People tend to see Robin either as aloof and off-putting or as reserved and mysterious. As a result, Robin's social experiences are typically of one of two types. Either people avoid her, or they are magnetized towards her. As a result, Robin has little experience communicating with people who aren't already rather familiar with her, or who at least have some passive interest in her as an oddity or novelty.

Mannerisms

Robin has a tendency to joke dryly with people, and repeat the punchline when people don't understand that she is joking.
 
She stammers when she gets nervous.
 
She tends to freeze up when people are physically affectionate with her, as though she doesn't know what to do.

Hobbies & Pets

Reading historical, and archaeological records.
Exploring the ebb and flow of the magical storm that dwells within.

Speech

Robin is able to replicate speech through careful use of Minor Illusion, but it is taxing to do for prolonged periods of time and she seems to prefer that most people not know that she can do so. When she speaks in this way, the voice that is produced by the spell is quiet and emotionally muted. Whether she makes the voice lacking emotivity intentionally or not is unknown.
 
After learning how to speak, Robin is able to project a voice from her own body. This one is capable of emotional inflection, and tends to be a bit less soft spoken. She is also clearly putting less thought into what she says, which no doubt gives her the appearance of being slightly more down to earth.
 
When she is angry, she tends to raise her voice and speaks more deliberately. Though she is sometimes prone to using language that is more crass than usual.
