Name: Hautbois D'amoure
Birthplace: The Black Shroud
Race: Miqo'te
Clan: Keeper of the Moon
Pronouns: He/They
Age: 30Based on first impressions, one would find Hobie to be your typical con artist, not above manipulation and flattery. However, beneath the facade lies an intuitive mage and sensitive soul.
Mercantile Upbringing
"Did you know my parents are lalafellin merchants? Someday, I would recount for you the tumultuous tale of my adoption... For now, just know that I'm as capable a merchant as any Ul'dah citizen, born and raised."Duplicitous Dreamer
"To chase dreams, one must live in the tomorrow, rather than be shackled by present circumstances. If one is afraid to twist the truth, then they are the one getting twisted instead, are they not? So don't hold it against me when I speak of hypotheticals as simply... 'theticals'."Proud Pet Owner
"Have you met my wonderful Ifrit-egi? He's able to act independently at any range, which is quite handy! If I had the talent to command arcane constructs, he would certainly be more obedient... but I'm happier to have a partner rather than a tool of war. That said, I would advise strangers to stay out of biting range."

Name: Malchite Dazkar
Birthplace: Azim Steppe
Race: Au Ra
Clan: Xaela
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 35An aspiring alchemist with eccentric interests, Malchite never quite understood why others find him to be an unnerving presence. He bides his time as an Ironworks contractor while uncovering the secrets of life and death (or so he thinks).
Toxic Personality
"Purbol toxin production is fascinating. The proteins responsible for causing paralysis are not synthesized by plants, which means they are acquired through predation. I would love to compare samples between specimens that have different diets. Morbol toxin on the other hand-"Allagan Conspiracist
"They would have you believe that vilekin disappear during the colder months, but do you know where they actually go? The truth is that they are depositing blood samples in underground aetherochemical laboratories for cloning purposes. Don't believe me? Remember when Cid said he saw me staring motionlessly for an hour? Total clone behavior."Aetheric Oddity
"I'd rather patch myself up. Anytime I go to a healer, they look at me funny. Why can't I detect your aether? Why is your pulse so slow? I don't know man, can you just stitch my arm back on already?"

Name: Kuroki Nokohira
Birthplace: Yanxia
Race: Doman
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 48Prior to the Garlean occupation, Kuroki sometimes shirked his geomancer duties to pursue other interests. His lengthy imprisonment caused him to regard this as a fatal mistake. However, he finds he has much to teach to a newly liberated Doma.
Words of Revolution
"Arrogant slavers,
Mastering people, not growth
See not your own fruits"Practice What You Preach
"Lest you wonder, I care not about tradition for tradition's sake. Superstitions and ceremonies are tools, interchangable. However, if your faith is in rain dances, you best not have idle feet."Consistency Matters
"Geomancy is not a cheap trick to whip out on a whim. Does the earth give out beneath you whilst you walk? If you give up on rainy days, it will be as mud. If you train, it is solid stone."

Name: Soleis Abaoth
Birthplace: Shaaloani
Race: Hhetsarro
Pronouns: He/Him
Age: 29An adventurer hoping to find fame and fortune across the salt, Soleis instead finds himself fatally wounded by a voidsent. Revived by Hydaelyn, he's happy to play the role of "Warrior of Light". Perhaps, more than he should be.
Max iLvl Plot Armor
"So there I was, eyeing the treasure chest across the hall. Ain't about to go to the next floor without taking a gander. Neither me nor the mimic woulda guessed that we were only two landmines deep in a three landmine room. Now, anyone know how to cure pox?"Politically Clueless
"Garlean occupation? They should get a real job, am I right guys? But seriously, someone explain it again. Didn't I beat their king already? Ya know, back when Thancred turned evil?"Good Memories
"Ya know, it still doesn't feel real that Hydaelyn is gone. At least we can look back fondly on the times we shared.Meeting the scions.

Bickering Brigands
"Brother, can you please explain why our haul is now a smoldering pile of ash?""Well, if you're going to have me slinging fireballs, it would be wise to mention the cargo is filled with bloody fire crystals.""Oh, I'm sure that would be useful information. A handy itemized list of which crystals are explosion-proof, and which ones are not.""I'll start scrubbing the scorch marks..."Ozzifyr's Day Job
"The gleaners have their eyes set on the southern sea. Aloalo Island. Supposed to have a rare fish that make you smarter.""Hah, I suppose if you're dumb enough to cross the salt for a damn fish, there's nowhere to go but up. Better eat a whole school while you're there. It'll be the closest you'll ever get to bein' educated!""Laugh all you want. They're going for the fish, but we also know the island is the birthplace of arcanima. I'm sure they won't notice if I bring home a souvenir."
