Nellaure Larille (known also as Nellaure Tol Larille), born on the 14th Sun of the Sixth Astral Moon, is a Garlean Elezen who once served as the leader of the VIIth Legion's intelligence branch, and was a Tribunus Laticalvius (though really only by name) serving under Nael van Darnus. She was one of the few who belonged to said legion who escaped it's destruction, as she was not present at Carteneau. After Nael's death, she went on to be transferred to the XIVth Legion, and until Gaius's death, served as a researcher. Due to having no other work for her, she is now a low-ranking member of Regnum Garlemald, a Garlean Nobles' organization who work as a pro magistrate of the Garlean Court itself in Eorzea.

Appearance & Personality
- Nellaure can be considered petite for her race, and some midlanders beat her in the height department. She is white-haired with red eyes, and is very pale in complexion. She has a scar that runs downward at the middle of her forehead, beginning about an inch from her hairline and ending just a few centimeters before her brow.
- She is a relatively quiet individual, thinking it better to not speak unless called upon to. Due to this, she is a rather isolated individual and over time, her social skills have suffered thanks to it. But, at the same time, this is the reason her intelligence has soared so high above most others' - as a child and even now, she much prefers to call books her friends. However, despite this, she still harbors a sort of "Garlean pride," and will not suffer to have her name pulled through the mud. This is usually the reason she speaks "out of turn."
- By Garlean standards, she is weak of mind, thus why she has hardly any place on the battlefield. While she has toughened up slightly thanks to her accident, she still finds it difficult to fight alongside fellow soldiers, so she much prefers to stay behind and relay information the best she can there.
- She is the type to take any job offered to her. And so when she lost her first job due to the VIIth Legion being nearly wiped out, she didn't mind the downgrade in rank that came with her second at all. Rank doesn't mean much to her, all she desires is to be of some use somewhere, no matter where that happens to be.
- She is capable of reading, writing, and to some degree, speaking several different languages, including Eorzean, and certain ones originating from the Eastern Continents, making her an expert in translation.
Biography
- Nellaure was born into the noble House Larille, one of the few houses of elezen that are classified as such. She is the second of two siblings, Nantain Larille being her older brother and already being 14 at the time. She was heavily sheltered by him, this becoming extremely prominent once their parents began to fight, and as such, lived a childhood of innocence.
- Eventually, Nantain moved on to join Garlemald's military as a medicus, and left her on her own not long after she turned 8. Still, she was the innocent little girl who could see no wrong in the world, even when she continuously witnessed her parents' arguments, and the two eventually parted. From the age of 9 to 16, she lived with only her father, the imminent divorce leading her mother to leave the care of the children to him. The heavy sheltering that her older brother showed continued on through her father, and so she grew up believing the world contained no evil. In the end, she was not prepared for what she saw when she joined the military at the age of 16.
- The sight of the ravages of war haunted her for years after that. She decided she could not bring herself to fight, and was nearly discharged when they could not find a use for her. However, soon they discovered her aptitude for strategy and intel, and so that became her job. She was assigned to the VIIth Legion, and in a few short years, rose to become the legion's intelligence leader, earning her a spot as a Tribunus Laticalvius under Nael's command. She kept this position for about 4 years before the White Raven met his end and she was forced from it, leaving her just a worthless body once again.
- But, despite the fact that she was now at relative peace until she was reassigned, it didn't last long. She was a victim of an assault (an attempted stabbing, to be more specific), whether it was a spy or a soldier or a civilian that did it, no one yet knows, but in the end, it gave her the scar on her forehead as a result. She ended up stripping the weapon from her assailant's hand and stabbing him with it to defend herself, and he was dead before anyone had come to assist her. This event ended up hardening her, at least to the point where she can fight and kill, but still she remained weak by Garlean standards. She took up training in arcanima for better means of defending herself, though she has not yet mastered this art presently.
- Soon after, she found a job working in the XIVth Legion as a researcher, specifically working on the Ultima Weapon for a time. She came to dislike this job soon enough, and so when Gaius died, she took the opportunity to leave with little hesitation, instead finding a place in the small organization called Regnum Garlemald.
