"You’ll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken and you live for yourself." - A traveler from another plane of existence.

Appearance

Standing at two foot ten, Yuki is considerably small, even for a Lala. Her skin is a nice looking chocolate color. Her hair is neatly kept, and short, a black in color with red highlighting and accenting very well. Her skin is relatively flawless, not a single pockmark or scar. The only marking is a collection of cute freckles crossing the bridge of her nose and across her cheeks. Indicating raw traces of untapped aetheric energies is her Heterochromia, normally sapphire blue eyes, one now shines a gold in color with her kind, inquisitive stare.

History

Yuki was born in Ala Mhigo with the name Nonora Nora, not that she recalls it. Her earliest memories come from later years in life, being anxiously pulled along in the streets by her mother, her father hurrying her along, urging her to keep up. Next, laying low in the bushes looking around with her parents before darting out across the hot desert towards an oasis where they could stop and drink. Another, running along the roads, playing with a stuffed moogle before the sound of yelling came from the homestead they were working on. She ran back, hiding and peering around the corner to see bandits with weapons rounding everyone up. Her father motioned for her to leave when the bandits backs were turned, but she ended up backing into a solid pair of legs, the stranger picking her up and calling for his allies to do a better job. Tied up tightly and thrown over to join her parents, the bandits ransacked the place before placing the adults inside, taking the girl with her.

She kicked and screamed the entire way until she was hoarse and tired, passing out from the exhaustion. When she awoke, it was cold and dark. The smell of sweat was thick in the air, the only sounds were whimpering, groaning and chains clanking together. She could feel that she was chained up, and the manacles were attached to the next person. Brightness blinded her as the people were roughly forced out of their transportation. The air was heavy with the smell of salt, indicating the ocean. They were in La Noscea, and she was freezing. Led onto a rough stage platform area, they were presented to an audience, and an auction began. They were to be sold as slaves to these strangers who were now placing down their bids. One by one, each of the people from her left were detached from the links until it came to her. The winning bid on her was a fat, gross looking Hyur man who took her away immediately to his house. She was treated poorly, like an animal, forced to entertain him and guests, and on rare occasions cook. She was kept in a cage or had a collar on her tightly, tied to a bedpost so that he had a 'cuddle buddy.'

A few years of this man's abuse and a Roegadyn bought her, having her transferred to his house where the living conditions improved, but treatment was no better. She entertained when ordered, cooked when he demanded it, and rarely, was sent to fetch things from dangerous places or act as an intermediary for an unsavory customer. She was eighteen when he apparently grew tired of her, bringing her to a cage for transferring people and handed her over to some private security guards. Manhandled roughly, she was thrown into the cage and locked in, set for a slow ride across the desert. The heat was unbearable that day and she had on some rare eastern clothing the previous owner liked to see her in, a gift to her new owner, he said. Already on the verge of passing out, the guards laughed at her pleas for water. Out of nowhere, one of the guards dropped and a small band of Hyur, Mi'qote and Elezen attacked the caravan, killing the guards and looking what they could. Most passed the dehydrating Lalafell up, claiming she was dead, but a white haired Mi'qote took pity.

Filling her mouth and splashing her face with water from his canteen, he helped her gather her wits before running off. Alone, stranded, but free, the Lalafellin girl wandered off, stumbling until she hit Ul'dah. She began to make a name for herself, doing odd jobs to raise money, staying in the Inn and eating there too. She kept the spiteful name and outfit, having grown quite fond of both over the years.

Personality

Yuki is relatively shy, not opening up to people and tending to keep quiet and to herself for the most part. When she opens up, however, she is bright, bubbly and jovial. Talking about her past, however, makes her tense up in fear and shake with anger, unable to suppress the memories brought up once more.
