I'm a wanderer
so let that be my name -
the first winter rain
--Bashō
Race Elezen (Duskwight/Ishgardian)About : Born to a Gridanian Duskwight carpenter and Coerthan stonemason, Breandan was raised as a ward of House Dzemael while his parents toiled on the House's building project - largely to keep them motivated on their work.His entire life became, then, an effort to regain his freedom and justice for parents after they were killed in an accident. This led him to leaving home to adventure, returning to serve at the close of the Dragonsong War, into the poisonous corridors of High House politics and even into the nascent wings of peace and collaboration with his ancient foes, the dragons.Now working out of a small office in Ul'dah, Breandan works with a team that advocates for people in similar situations to his upbringing: smallfolk abused by those who hold power.Hooks

Race Hrothgar (Lost)About : From a timeline devastated by an Eighth Umbral Calamity and the chaos and societal breakdowns that followed. Anatoly joined with the Garlond Ironworks of that future for stability, putting both aetherical and technical learning towards the Ironworks' efforts to circumvent the catastrophe before it began.And it was a success, ostensibly, even if it did little for their own lives.

(Blaise oen Gallus)

But I hope to die in a battle of my choosing.
But if it is to be this one, do not bury me in our sad little cemetery. Burn me, and cast my ashes to a strong eastern wind.
-King Arthur (2004)
Race Elezen (Ilsabardian)About :Born of the Eschva - a nomadic peoples who traveled the breadth of Ilsabard with no regard for national borders. With the coming of the Garlean Empire, they refused to settle.Eventually, they were offered a compromise by Legatus Noah van Gabranth of the IVth Legion. They could keep their practices in exchange for a number of their strongest men to serve in the Legion for a period of time.When Blaise came of age, he became one of the capable chosen.Posted in Valnain in occupied Dalmasca, he saw action broadly across the IVths operational territories, including locations in Nangxia and the Bozjan fronts.Until it all crumbled and fell apart.Two thirds of the IVth legion surrendered in the aftermath. But surrendering, to Blaise, meant abandoning the beasts he'd come to trust more than people, including a new acquisition that was too young to properly survive on its own.It also meant betraying his promises to van Gabranth and his people, with several years still left on his appointed term of service.He chose instead to flee back into the closest occupied territory to regroup.Hooks

Race: Roegadyn (Hingan Hellsguard )About A young geiko in the 'Flower and Willow World' of Kugane's Sanjo Hanamashi, Chizuru's days are crowded with lessons and her nights going from teahouse to teahouse, entertaining the city's up-and-coming merchant class as well as their foreign guests, the smile on her face never faltering.One of the last members of a house with a history dating back through the Age of Blood, the women of the Fujimori okiya have long used their skills to collect information about their environment, subtly advising their patrons when need arises.Hooks

Constantia dus Metella
In the face of a tragedy too bleak to know
the death of some grand illusion.
All the treasure we pilloried, splendour we stole
They never told you that in school.
-Thomas Dolby, Budapest by Blimp
Race: GarleanAbout An archaeologist who spent a fine career exploring the breadth of the Empire. From balmy Locus Amoenus to the hidden Clockwork City of Goug, said to be the ancient origins of the Garlean people.And even further afield, buried behind the protection of various expeditionary Legion movements and the security of Castra across the three continents.As the Empire's territory shrunk, so did her ability to travel safely, until she found herself working in the Capital in the middle of the civil war, and all that came after.After narrowly surviving only with the help of the Ilsabard Contingent, she is now focused on cataloguing artifacts from the wreckage of the former Imperial Palace, now the Tower of Babil.Hooks

Corine
of the Scarlet House of Ashgrave
Bring me my broadsword
And clear understanding
-Jethro Tull, Broadsword
Race: GaldjentAbout:The descendant of a house of knights, court magicians and advisors in the old Kingdom of Voeburt, Corine’s family fled to Eulmore in the wake of the Flood of Light. They settled as free citizens and carved out a good slice of existence in a land touched by perpetual Light.Raised on family tales of life before the Flood, Corine often yearned for more, but what is more at the end of the world?Joining Eulmore’s military gave her some direction and reprieve from the tedium. She proved herself capable enough to accompany General Ran’jit’s detachment into Lakeland and Il Mheg in pursuit of the wayward Oracle, Minfilia.It was in Il Mheg that her life took a radical change. Fleeing an assault by the fairy kingdom’s mischievous pixies, she managed by luck to desert straight into the graces of a Nu Mou with whom one of her ancestors a century previous had formed a pact.It was by this pact that she managed to avoid being turned into a leafman.Her life just got far stranger from there.Hooks:

Danilys Waentyrnwyn
... if we wrapped up against the cold, we wouldn't feel other things, like the bright tingle of the stars, or the music of the aurora, or best of all the silky feeling of moonlight on our skin. It's worth being cold for that.
-Phillip Pullman, The Golden Compass
Race: Roegadyn (Sea Wolf)About:
A colonist from Dravania relocated to the motherland with the Exodus, Danilys' academic career involves incresingly esoteric and eccentric fields of study - using one discipline to transfer into another. She's published a few papers in academic journals, both as a solo and co-author.She's been enrolled at the Studium in near perpetuity, save for a period of time shortly before the Final Days. With a friendly caution from an advisor that her projects were close to mandating her transfer to the forbidden quarters of Labyrinthos permanently, she chose instead to take a 'gap year' in Eorzea, funding her endeavours there by offering private tutelage to the children of wealthy families as well as supporting public education and literacy projects where they existed.With the Final Days at an end, she found the climate more hospitable to return to her studies, both with caution and finding more avenues strangely open after the event.She is at odds with many traditional Sharlayan isolationist policies. Inspired by the world at large, she believes that sharing knowledge and wisdom only increases both.It is this, combined with her ever-evolving interests that will likely keep her from ever achieving Archonship, but she seems to simply enjoy the journey her path takes her.

-Abney Park
Race: Elezen (Ishgardian)About: When he saw the salvage of the ruined airship, blistered by dragonfire and cast aside, it reminded him of his own life. Any number of his friends and comrades - unwanted unless useful. Discarded once not.It cost the better part of his Manufactory wages that month to purchase it from his Haillenarte superiors. He fixed it up with spare parts he saved for (or 'misplaced' on the Manufactory floor).He named it Corposant - a fancy descriptor for the will o'wykes of the Coerthan Highlands that lure travelers astray in the night.And when it was skyworthy, he took wing for what felt like freedom and fairer weather...Hooks:

Daya binh Mariyaam
The life of an archer is more precious than that of a bow.
-Dhanurveda
Race: Au Ra (Thavnairian Raen)About:
The fourth and youngest child in her family, Daya was given no particular direction for her life growing up. She developed an interest in physical and martial pursuits at a young age and her parents indulged her, arranging teachers from several disciplines, including a well-renowned bowmaster.It was natural that she would join the Radiant Host, and was assigned to the security detail of an attaché working out of the embassy in Kugane for a time. Cutting her teeth in the experiences of a larger world before returning home for a duty rotation in country, as the Tower of Zot arrived off the shores of Yelihimad.In the aftermath of the Final Days, Daya has returned, after a fashion, to diplomatic service. She travels where she is needed to, providing protection for merchants and government representatives wherever Thavnair's interest take her.Hooks:

Eillian Locke
The summer will reveal itself to those whose hearts are true
And to the faithless few.
-The Mountain Goats, High Hawk Season
Race: Hyur (Dalmascan Midlander)About:
Ser Eillian was a young man, a new-made knight when the Imperials first came to Dalmasca.Thirty years later, when the nation breathed free air again, he was no longer young.The intervening years were fraught with darkness: countless thousands dead, countless more subjugated. A darkness Eillian delved into reluctantly, then willingly, then gladly. He joined with a resistance cell, then another, until he found himself leading one. When Othard began to extract itself from Imperial rule, he was part of the uprisings in
the royal city of Rabanastre - and part of the reason the IVth Legion bombed the city to powder.After that, he found himself taking the fight abroad. To Bozja, deeper into Ilsabard. Thirty years of fighting and running haven't left him unmarred, though, and have taken their toll on both his body and spirit.When at last, he found himself circling back towards home, someone suggested he take some time for rest and contemplation, or at least to find a quieter project. He found it in a group to reclaim and restore a place of worship in the new capital of Valnain.How long this peace of soul will last remains to be seen.Hooks:

Ergene Noykin
Cascading stars on the slumbering hills
They are dancing as far as the sea
Riding o'er the land, you can feel its gentle hand
Leading on to its destiny
- Loreena McKennit, Night Ride Across the Caucasus
Race: Au Ra (Xaela)About:
A courier rider carrying messages between the vast and changing encampments of the various tribes of the Azim Steppe, Ergene all but grew up in the saddle. They learned, quickly, how to navigate hostile territory, how to avoid getting intangled in intertribal feuds.During the last Nadaam, they took the field by horse, swiftly carrying messages and orders between scattered alliances and combatants seperated in the din of the fight. It was noted when the competition was over and the victors decided by those with the eyes to see.It wasn't so long after that a message came for them, for once. From a representative of the nascent Eastern Alliance, by way of the Mol and their Doman ally, Hien Rijin. An invitation to lend their skills towards connecting and relaying between greater and even more disparate peoples, all in the name of freeing Othard from Garlean influence.They accepted without much hesitance, and soon found themselves riding across places they'd scarcely heard of and among people they'd never imagined they'd meet.Hooks:

Eyrigraeb Agatansawyn
Cursed your captain and stow me below
Hold me amongst all your cards
Oh we were sea bound, and aimless at best
Clutching to the wheel and those charts
But that sea was just a gambler at heart
- Gregory Alan Isakov - That Sea, the Gambler
Race: Roegadyn(Sea Wolf)About: When her infamous mother's pirating ways led her down an irredeemable path, young Eyrigraeb was taken in by a particular 'convent' that raised her and gave her a little direction in a life that could have otherwise foundered.Her outgoing nature and innate ability to read people made her a good lookout, and she took to hanging around Limsa Lominsa's various docks and piers, chatting up travelers and making friends (and "friends") from various places.Her penchant for cards and games of chance gets her into as much trouble as it does anything else, and sometimes it's almost like she's got a sixth sense for being in the wrong place at exactly the wrong time...Hooks:

B. Francoix Robichaud
Emerald ivy wrapped around my skin
Pulls me deeper, drags me back again
Tangle me up in your vines
Take my spirit, take my mind
Take me over to that Other Side
-Avi Kaplan
Race: Elezen (Gridanian Wildwood)About:Born in an impoverished and crumbling estate in the Black Shroud, to a Wildwood family with more pedigree than any other asset, Francoix' early life was spent mostly within the confines of the family home, dogged by illness and weakness that followed him like a shadow. Never able to be fully lifted.To provide him some ease, his family arranged for private tutors to educate him at home, and later arranged for him to travel and life in Ul'dah with familiar friends as an adolescent - which is where his health seemed to improve and he began to thrive. Being scouted and taken as an apprentice by a thaumaturge in the employ of the famous East Aldenard Trading Company opened further doors to him.Posted in Kugane as a teenager with his master, he fell in with a diverse group of friends, including a well-off local youth and the children of a Garlean attache at the local consulate. They didn't quite have the run of the city like they imagined, but forged fast friendships that lingered even as they parted ways to adulthood and their respective places of origin and business.Now settled, Francoix is on the cusp of his adult life and career - with a talent for languages and learning them and a little bit of magic learned to help turn it into something useful.Hooks:

Geoffrey Wodeward
To all things housed in her silence
Nature offers a violence
- Hozier, Blood Upon The Snow
Race: Hyur (Gridanian Midlander)About:A survivor from a South Shroud encampment devastated by the Calamity, Geoffrey fell in with the Trapper's League out of necessity. A keen-eyed hunter, skilled in woodcraft, he makes a living catching game in the Shroud and selling and trading the meat, hides and pelts.His good standing with the League means he avoids being shaken down for poaching most of the time and he takes a care not to upset the Wood's delicate natural balance.Still, a darkness seems to follow him at times, like the shadows cast by the tallest trees at midday. Maybe because he walks a little too deep into the forest. Maybe because he's often glimpsed near places where the barriers are thin and oft finds himself in conflict with voidsent who slip through. Or also, that sometimes people still go missing in places he might wander. Consumed by the Greenwrath or whatever stranger might be lurking out there.Whether he is possessed of exceptionally good luck or exceptionally bad, he doesn't mention. He just keeps to his work, returning to settlements with his catches, then moving on.Hooks:

If I can't evade my fate
Then I won't sit around and wait
A fallen star will be thy bane
I call you by your ancient names
-Lord Huron, Ancient Names II
Race: Hyur (Ishgardian Highlander)About: Driven from the Observatorium for pursuing the 'wrong' questions around the Battle of Silvertear Lake, Gisela escaped the Inquisition's clutches by fleeing, leaving her family and entire life behind.There are always people to take in those who fall from the Holy See's graces, however, and she quickly fell in with one of such groups of them. She speaks little of that time and those people - outside of information she turned over at war's end when it was safe to come and reconcile.She's returned to the city to try and eke out some kind of living inside its walls, out of the worst of the cold. She's no longer young and she is tired, and just wants to live out what's left of her life in peace.Hooks:

Father of light

give us your wisdom

-James McAlister, Jupiter
Race: Hyur (Gyr Abanian Highlander)About: Golnar narrowly escaped being shipped away to Ilsabard as a child. Escaping off an Imperial transport as it was jostled on a rough mountain road, she managed to flee and hide by some grace or luck.Though she was deft enough to avoid recapture, she had less luck simply surviving the elements until she was found and hidden by a collection of local industrialists.The collective of silk weavers managed to survive the Mad King's purges by hiding the sigils of their true faith, posing themselves instead as humble devotees of Nymeia. The Spinner, they insisted, showed Her favor through the practice of their craft.When the Imperials came, they survived by hiding again. They hid the sigils of all faiths, presenting themselves as simple craftspeople eager to make a living under anyone's rule. They adapted to weaving Garlean fibers instead, though always with a subtle flaw in each.Instead of whatever else the gods may have had in store for her, Golnar grew up there instead, in a monastery of the Destroyer that had survived by destroying itself - in favor of whatever it needed to appear as instead.-Silk Mercantile

-Jim Henson, The Rainbow Connection
Race: Lalafell (Plainsfolk)About: As an engineer in Labyrinthos, Professor Henson worked on a few of the Ragnarok's automated and supplementary systems. Knowing that the people of Etheriys would likely need assistance of many kinds should they need to flee the Final Days, he put his prodigious knowledge of mammet-crafting to work. Inspired by mysterious bits of information that trickled down from a friend sitting on the Forum, he crafted automata designed not only to be helpful in any theoretical settlements, but had kind and welcoming visages to help manage any emotional distress during the transition.The circumvention of the Final Days an obvious relief, and learning more about the identities of the Forum's mysterious 'allies' a wonder. far from bereft of purpose, Professor Henson instead adapted his creations for education and entertainment.

-Idris Elba, Choke Hold
Race: Miqo'te (Hhetsarro )About:
Hhesenya's Arcadion career was over before it began. When Zoraal Ja, Alexandria's King of Resolve, demanded the arena's collection of feral souls for military use and shuttered the arena.This included the Thunder Spirit Hhesenya had been selected and was becoming comfortable training with. The soul he'd come to think of like a familiar one, not unlike the hhetso his ancestors venerated and listened to.The upcoming Light-heavy, Ghostwing Reaver, would never see a single bout, never see his name in lights, never hear the cheers of fans screaming his name.Bereft of an assignment and a career, he was left with a few things. Among them were a sense of embitterment and a case of suspicion: knowing first-hand the kind of power a feral soul could bring to bear, the sudden movement of a large quantity of them stuck something in him that wasn't easily dislodged.Armed with curiosity and some terminal skills gained before his Arcadion stint, he went looking for answers. And he was lucky that Oblivion got wind of his activities before the King's knights did. And once he'd learned even a fraction of what the covert organization knew, he knew he'd never go back to the ring.He now aids Oblivion in information retrieval and operational coordination - a 'hacker' in the iconic sense of the word. Far from passive, though, he's got a few tricks up his sleeve from his time spent with the Thunder Spirit that he can pull out in a crisis.Hooks:

"Free us of our weary wings"
-Emily Portman, Tongue-Tied
Race: Hyur (Gridanian Midlander)About: One of the last of a Gridanian family of talent, Ivoria grew up in the markets of Shaded Bower and the Conjurer's Guild. Following an aunt more gifted than she could ever dream of being, she nonetheless studied diligently and aspired to nothing more than a good life.Until her aunt, Asir-O-Kara became one of the many victims of the Calamity, lost while trying to save both people and animals of the Twelveswood.Bereft of one of her most beloved mentors at a formative time in her development, she floundered for a time before seeming to find her own feet, and her own talent for hearing and perhaps, something of her own purpose.Hooks:

-Peter Gabriel, Here Comes the Flood
Race: ViisAbout:
Jaelle first came to the sands of Ahm Araeng with a purpose. Part of a duo who had left the shade of the Rak'tika Greatwood, carrying a wounded and sick member of their tribe with them.It was hard to say how the rumor reached the ears of their isolated home - that there were people in the distant desert who had a cure for a Sin Eater's wound. But they came with that hope, and found only a place for their sister to meet a peaceful end, so far away from their home and their ancient duties.She doesn't speak of the fate of her companions, or why she chose to stay rather than make her way back. But - stay she did.Hooks:

Å mannen han gjekk seg i vedaskog
der såg han ei kråke i lunden som gol
- Traditional (Kerstin Blodig)
Race: Viera (Veena)About:A warder from a settlement at the terminus of the Skatay range, Kjeren was assigned to watch over what they named 'The bones of the Earth' - the encroachment of the Burn from the north, as well as the desert kingdom to the south. Dalmasca, from whose water supplies came down from the snow-capped peaks.And, closer within the confines of their domain, perhaps other things. The ruins of civilizations past, the treasures within that should be kept from unworthy hands.When the Garleans came to Othard, it became clear to his elders that their ways needed to expand. Their warriors and warders had tested their mettle against the monsters who dwelled within the aether-starved lands of the Burn for countless generations. They added testing their mettle against Imperial machina and weaponry to their feats of strength.They maintained a certain level of isolation for their own protection, and were quick to cut down Imperial patrols venturing into the mountains. Yet, they opened their territory to shelter a few refugees from their neighbors in Dalmasca and Nangxia. Both those fleeing the Empire and those hiding to strike back at it.They expanded further once the Empire had been driven out. As a gesture of the camaraderies forged during those times, they decided to gift an antique relic of the Dalmascan faith to the restoration of a church in Valnain, far to the south. And chose Kjeren as the bearer of said gift along with a mission to learn more about their neighbors' ways and those of the world at large.Hooks:

Race: Elezen (Ishgardian)About:
Laszlaux was sent to study at the Scholasticate from a Manufactory apprenticeship by a visiting lord who saw promise in him. In gratitude, and not wanting to let an opportunity go to waste, he applied himself diligently, and dreamed of particular ways that he might elevate himself. Make himself useful and obtain a better life.He doesn't often speak of the time he spent in service to the Vault afterwards, but emerged from it as Ishgard moved into a new dawn at war's end.Armed with a remarkably prodigious amount of historical knowledge, he took up a more public position as lead curator of a museum designed to illustrate Ishgard's tumultuous and bloody-handed past, and guide well into the future.Hooks:

I watch the parade begin
Searching for one familiar face
And I wonder where I fit in
How will I know if there's a place
for me in the Brave New World
