Backstory

Born in the sprawling undercity of Ul’dah, Ceki Nitka grew up under the shadow of glittering wealth and ruthless ambition. Her Keeper Miqo'te tribe had long abandoned the forests, trading tradition for the promise of prosperity in the city. Yet, prosperity proved elusive, and Ceki's family scraped by in the margins of society, learning to survive in a world that offered no kindness to the weak.From a young age, Ceki was a street-savvy tomboy, her demeanor a rebellion against the societal and familial expectations placed upon her. Navigating Ul’dah’s labyrinthine alleys, she quickly learned that survival depended on strength, wit, and a sharp sense of self. Her small stature often made her a target for those who mistook her size for weakness, a mistake they rarely made twice.Her love for fistfighting began in one of these encounters, when a gang of thieves tried to ambush her in a back alley. Though untrained, her raw ferocity and refusal to back down left the attackers bruised and humiliated. That moment was a turning point, and she embraced her fists as her weapons of choice. Over time, she refined her skills through countless scraps and underground fight clubs, where her reputation as a fierce and unrelenting brawler grew.

Her vibrant purple hair, streaked with lighter highlights, is more than just a stylistic choice, it’s a declaration of her individuality and defiance. She refused to fade into the shadows like so many others in her circumstances. Her tattoos, sprawling across her arms and legs in intricate designs of moons, stars, and abstract tribal patterns, serve as a living chronicle of her struggles, triumphs, and the unbreakable spirit that carried her through the harshest times.Despite her rough edges, Ceki has a fiercely protective side, especially for the downtrodden and those she considers family. Her black leather jacket and pants, paired with a black lace bra, are her signature look, worn both as armor in battle and as a statement of her confidence. On quieter days, she favors street-style outfits that prioritize freedom and movement, blending function with her unmistakable flair.As a lesbian, Ceki has navigated her share of heartbreaks, her guarded nature making it difficult to trust fully. Her life on the streets taught her that love, like a dagger, could be both a weapon and a wound. Still, she holds onto hope that someone will see beyond her tough exterior to the woman beneath.Her life took a new turn when she encountered a wandering monk who saw potential in her raw talent. They introduced her to martial arts, teaching her discipline, precision, and focus. While she respects the philosophy behind their teachings, she keeps her fighting style rooted in the gritty pragmatism of her street origins. Her punches may have gained finesse, but her resolve remains unyielding.Now, Ceki works as a freelance fighter, bodyguard for women, and adventurer, taking on jobs that let her protect others while carving out her place in the world. Her dream is to create a haven for misfits like herself, those who refuse to conform, who wear their scars and ink as badges of honor, and who fight for their right to exist unapologetically.
