&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is a &amp;quot;freelance educator&amp;quot; by her own description.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  After resigning, she started to live in the Harbingers estate and work there full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===After the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia has since left the Harbingers.  The reasons she left are not commonly known.  People close to her will know that this was a difficult decision for her to make.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After leaving, she returned to Ul'dah to work with her parents' store, The Magic Carpet, a clothier and upholsterer that caters to well-to-do clientele.  Because the bulk of their business is done by special order, Lilia was able to live and operate here in relative obscurity, primarily interfacing with clients and aiding in the fulfillment of orders.  Her primary occupation at this time, however, was caring for her aging parents and trying to see to it that the two of them were not pushing themselves too hard.  During this time she often told them that they should consider retirement, but business never slowed down enough for them to really contemplate any such plans.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As her parents aged and took a less active role in the operation of the day-to-day business, management of the Magic Carpet  became a challenge.  Lilia knew it would soon be necessary to bring in young management talent to help her carry forth the company's name so that the legacy of her parents would not die.  She knew of a few potential people who had both enough business acumen as well as enough practical knowledge of clothcraft that they would be fitting, but without knowing the whereabouts of these old friends of hers, she knew it befell her to seek them out and she would have to take up her adventurer's mantle once more.  The shop temporarily closed its doors as Lilia set out into Eorzea again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Adventures of Miss Lilia and Sir John, Her Butler===  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia felt she needed protection upon her outing, as well as aid carrying her parcels, so she specified to the Retainer Vocate that she would like a retainer who had an imposing height and also some skill in pugilism.  So began her employment relationship with [[John Lockfellow]], who would serve as her Retainer, Butler, and Bodyguard for the coming journeys through Eorzea.  Together the two of them spent many days and nights on the road, the deferential and polite John carrying on his duties with the respect he had learned as a Retainer, as Lilia took it upon herself to further his &amp;quot;education&amp;quot; in manners and fashion.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Among the people Lilia was seeking was a former protégé of hers, [[Connor Tavarin]], whose gifts with the needle had made a lasting impression upon her.  After a number of failed leads and declined offers, she was able to ascertain Connor's whereabouts and sought him out at the Aethertide estate in La Noscea.  As it turned out, he himself was just about to embark upon a business outing, one which had the potential to benefit her also.  After some discussion the two of them agreed to enjoin as business partners, with Lilia bringing over a share of the equity from The Magic Carpet to invest into potential foreign markets.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two of them, as well as a team of hirelings, and Sir John also, set out to pursue a potential lead: contracts in the Far East.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Knife with one edge sharpened an' no guard on the handle.&amp;quot; - [[Flameson Hammersmith|Flameson Hammersmith]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's a proper lady, always ready to reprimand folks for impoliteness. Not said much to me yet so I guess I'm doing alright thus far.&amp;quot; - [[J'Maaira Tuhl|J'Maaira Tuhl]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia? She left the Harbingers of Dawn under mysterious circumstances, I did not get much time to know her, something I hope to rectify some day.&amp;quot; - [[Vallerin Hortimont]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I don't know if she's capable of using &amp;quot;layman's terms.&amp;quot; She likes her high-class comforts.&amp;quot; [[Khyran Oisin]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Lilia has since left the Harbingers and is reportedly traveling abroad.  The reasons she left are not commonly known.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of late she may be seen traveling with the Caravan of the Wayfinders, and she routinely makes dealings with local merchants in the stops along the caravan's path.  Her carriage and demeanor are still highly domestic notwithstanding her change of living conditions.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is a &amp;quot;freelance educator&amp;quot; by her own description, currently unaffiliated with a free company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  After resigning, she started to live in the Harbingers estate and work there full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===After the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia has since left the Harbingers and is reportedly traveling abroad.  The reasons she left are not commonly known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is a &amp;quot;freelance educator&amp;quot; by her own description, currently unaffiliated with a free company and traveling in the Black Shroud.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===After the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia has since left the Harbingers and is reportedly traveling abroad.  The reasons she left are not commonly known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

Lilia Lia is a &amp;quot;freelance educator&amp;quot; by her own description, currently unaffiliated with a free company and traveling in the Black Shroud.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Knife with one edge sharpened an' no guard on the handle.&amp;quot; - [[Flameson Hammersmith|Flameson Hammersmith]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's a proper lady, always ready to reprimand folks for impoliteness. Not said much to me yet so I guess I'm doing alright thus far.&amp;quot; - [[J'Maaira Tuhl|J'Maaira Tuhl]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
'''Chachanji Gegenji''' ''(32nd Sun of the 5th Umbral Moon)'', also known as &amp;quot;Chachan,&amp;quot; is a young Dunesfolk Lalafell from Doma who ultimately seeks to become a great hero and, in doing so, protect all those he cares for - along with everybody else if he can manage it. While not the sharpest sword around, his childish determination and almost completely selfless goodwill towards others seem to be able to bring a smile to even the most cynical of people. Couple that with his surprising strength and constitution, and you have a kind individual who is more than willing to overcome any obstacle in order to see his friends smile.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #ECCA67;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Basic Info&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
Chachanji Gegenji is the youngest son of Zozonji Gegenji, the most recent head of a family of Doman weapon and armorsmiths, and Jijinya Jinya, aspiring daughter of a middling Ul'dahn merchant family who seeks to spread knowledge of the family's wares throughout all of Hydaelyn. He is preceded by his older brother Gogonji Gegenji and his older sister Nininya Ninya, leaving him in the position of spoiled youngest child with not much expected of him.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;section begin=featured-blurb /&amp;gt;Chachanji, like his siblings before him, was trained since he was old enough to hold a smith's hammer to follow in his family's footsteps. As such, he is surprisingly muscled and tough for a Lalafell, along with being quite the competent smithy. However, his rugged form is offset by his baby-like face and his childish, almost romantically-minded beliefs. He firmly believes that he would rather use what he crafts himself and protect others, rather than merely foist them upon those selfsame people for coin. And it was this belief that ultimately resulted in him traveling to the tumultuous city of Ul'dah, where the plights of the downtrodden there has only served to strengthen his beliefs.&amp;lt;section end=featured-blurb /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One can now often find Chachanji running to and fro about the desert city, usually running errands tasked to him by the Adventurer's Guild by way of the Quicksand's own Momodi. When he's not doing that, he can most likely be found in the company of the surprising number of friends that he has accumulated thus far during his stay. With his eagerness to help and genuinely caring disposition, it's no small wonder that so many would count the Doman Lalafell amongst their allies. Not to mention there are a few that he stubbornly considers his friends, whether they like it or not.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
At Chachanji's side often enough is stalwart, little &amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Gran&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;; a baby behemoth that has quickly become the Lalafell's heroic sidekick-slash-mascot. Originally an oddity that was handed off time and time again between vendors and easily-tricked consumers across Eorzea, the little purple porker has somehow wound up under the Lalafell's care. He's not complaining, though, considering the ample supply of entertainment and treats. Whether or not he's actually a baby behemoth or a piglet made up to look like one is still up in the air.&lt;br /&gt;

====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Quirks&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A bit of an oblivious dork, zeroing in on things that catch his interest and often missing things that haven't. Due to his training as a smith under his father, this often include focusing on someone's arms or armor.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Speaks with a cobbled-together &amp;quot;Eorzean accent&amp;quot; that he's picked up to hide his Doman heritage. While it slips when he's suitably distressed, he's gotten quite used to using it and maintains it more often than not.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;While relatively fluent in Eorzean thanks to the Garlean occupation, he has a harder time wrapping his head around more complicated words (and names) and often breaks them down into oversimplifications, like &amp;quot;in-keg-neato&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;thundermentals.&amp;quot; Others he mispronounces as part of that &amp;quot;Eorzean accent,&amp;quot; and has stuck to them out of habit - &amp;quot;halp&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;swording&amp;quot; being two of the most common.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;As a little hero to be, Chachan often jumps in to try and &amp;quot;halp&amp;quot; people whenever there's a problem, even if he can't solve it. This has included an incident where he tried to talk a thief out of being a thief. This often leads to him taking on more than he can handle, and is likely to lead to him getting frustrated and throwing a fit.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Energetic and positive, always eager to go out and make things better.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Always willing to lend a hand, which often leads to him doing all sorts of tasks and errands.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A loyal, if oddball, friend who will always try to be there for them.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Surprisingly knowledgeable about armor and weapon materials, and knows his way around a smith's hammer.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Weaknesses&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Terrible decision-maker, used to family making the big decisions and cleaning up his messes.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;His friendliness and willingness to help also makes him easily fleeced and taken advantage of.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A bit of a crybaby, and can shut down if things go south for him.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;While he's been learning how to use sword and shield to protect people, he hasn't learned some of the &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;other&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; necessary points to help people, leading him to a couple &amp;quot;round peg, square hole&amp;quot; situations.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Childhood&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji, like his siblings before him, was born in Doma and taught by his parents in the ways of business and metallurgy. However, it was silently understood that the eldest - Gogonji - would take over as family head once Zozonji and Jijinya stepped down. However, he was still expected to aid in the smithing of the arms and armor that was his family's lifeblood, so any slacking on that front met with strict discipline from his father. As such, his skill in smithing so no less than his siblings, though most of his economic and business lectures were oft spent daydreaming about fighting dragons and saving princesses.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Such heroic ideals extended to what little free time was afforded to him between his lectures, where he liked to play hero - swinging around a stick or one of his smithing hammers to defeat whatever dastardly shadow or bush that dared to cross him. Such adventures often resulted in him breaking something or injuring himself, ready to be pounced upon by his dour-faced father. However, more than one punishment was dissuaded by his elder brother Gogonji, who sought to protect the freedom that he lived vicariously through his younger brother.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:  As such, Chachan latched on to his older brother more than anyone else, often seeking to remain as close to his eldest sibling during lectures and nagging the future head of the family into playing with him. He was not unlike a Chocobo chick, always pattering along a couple steps behind his brother. For in his young eyes, Gogonji could do no wrong, and the mental acuity of his older brother - a trait inherited from their mother's side, though it was a resource that seemed exhausted by the time Chachanji was born - always left the little Lalafell in awe and wonder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Teenage&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: So, it should come as no surprise that the most shocking event in Chachanji's young life was when he overheard a heated argument between Zozonji and Gogonji. The normally quiet and studious Gogon was suddenly voicing his disinterest in taking on the family business! He believed that simple weapons and armor paled before the might of tactics and knowledge, which had the added benefit of having uses outside just combat. He spoke of the Arcanists of the south seas, he described tales of the Scholars of Nym. Spearheading the manipulation and control of information, he argued, was a better goal than stubbornly relying on antiquated weaponry - already dated against Garlean's magitek advances, even as the Garleans themselves snapped up the family's wares.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji retreated as the fight continued, afraid of being discovered or - worse - dragged into it. All he knew was that, shortly after that, Gogonji disappeared from their demesne, leaving naught behind but one of his two Cactaur earrings on Chachan's nightstand. The upset young Lalafell tearfully approached his father for clarification, for any information on where his older brother had gone to, but was gruffly dismissed and ordered to redouble his efforts on his studies. For after all, which Gogonji gone, it fell upon the second (and only other) son to take up the family business. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: What little free time Chachanji possessed before then all but evaporated. From dawn till dusk, he was either at the forge learning how to bend metal to his will or trapped behind a desk to droning and confusing lectures on proper business practices. And, while Chachanji would still dream of being a hero, he found himself frequently wondering where Gogonji was. What he was doing. If he was happy.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: As such did the next five years pass, with Chachanji's mind often drifting to thoughts about his wayward elder brother. His mental deficiencies continued to harangue his parents, and the matters of finance were soon hefted upon his older sister Nininya, who showed much more mental aptitude for it, though she bemoaned her fate nonetheless. As such, the forge became the center of the youngest Gegenji's world. Until, after a particularly vivid recollection of the argument between Gogonji and their father, Chachanji decided he had suffered enough.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Like his brother before him, Chacha confronted his father in within the smoky confines of the family's forge. However, his complaints were much more whimsical than calculating, more fanciful than fiscally sound. To the bright-eyed youngster, it was obvious the Domans held no love for Garlemald, so why not support the Eorzean Alliance more openly? Why not take up the arms they so lovingly crafted and defend Doma, Ul'dah, and the rest of Hydaelyn from their oppressors rather than just turn around and sell them to the highest bidder!? Buyers who included the Garleans themselves!&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji remembers little of how the rest of the argument played out, either too upset to remember or having actively refused to commit it to memory. All that he knew that he was on a ship to Ul'dah, to the land of his mother, to do more to help people than just offer them a fine blade for a price. Once there, the gap between the haves and the have-nots only inflamed his passion. He quickly found work with Momodi, taking tasks to try and make each day a little bit better for the locals - all the while dreaming of doing something bigger and better.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And yet, every once in a while, he'd look out through his bedroom window and wonder. How was his family doing? Where they okay? And what of Gogonji, who had still heard naught of even in the rumor-laden bustle of the Quicksand?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Present&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Ul'dah Small Things''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Imagine Chachanji's fear, then, when he heard of the razing of Doma. While he and his father had separated on less-than-friendly circumstances, those nightly musings were proof enough that he still truly cared for his family. So, when the refugees came to Ul'dah, Chachanji dropped everything to go see them - only to find they had been barred from the city just like the Ala Mhigans. Chachan himself almost ended up being ejected from the city along with them due to his heritage, but it was Momodi again who came to his rescue with paperwork proving the young Lalafell a properly registered adventurer under her employ and thus exempt from the ousting. Of course, the Doman Lalafell has still managed to end up in a poor spot or two due to this, and he quickly learned to keep his heritage quiet to avoid any more unneeded complications.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Despite that, the decision to travel to Ul'dah seemed to be mostly prosperous for the little hero-to-be. He's managed to make many friends during his stay there (with an oddly disproportionate number of them being Sultansworn), made a bit of a name for himself as an able hand around Ul'dah, and even began his training to become a Paladin under the watchful eyes of [[Warren Castille]], [[Roen Deneith]], and (hopefully soon) Ser [[Coatleque Crofte]]. He's even found a sort of pseudo-family in his &amp;quot;adopted big sister&amp;quot; [[Leanne Delphium]], and slowly came to see the Hourglass as a sort of second home to replace the fallen Doma.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: However, it was not all sunshine and rainbows as Chachanji would often try to make it seem. With his family trundled off to Revenant's Toll with the rest of the Doman refugees, he often found himself wondering if he should rejoin them and help them recover before following his own dream. Not to mention that his penchant for wanting to help as many people as he can leads to its own litany of problems - from dealing with a duel between [[Evangeline Primrose]] and [[Aiden Church]] to [[Romy Leonhardt]]'s losing of an arm and subsequent requesting of a reinforced gauntlet. His overwhelming desire to help as many people as he could, coupled with his often lacking ability to do so, resulted in two rather childish tantrums - one turned against his own adopted sister, who was slowly spiraling into depression.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Even his childish dream of heroism through becoming a Paladin has had several unexpected snares. Most of it stemming for a conversation with Ser Crofte when he sought her council as a third mentor. Her insistent questions poked obvious holes in his childlike dream, yet revealing a curious determination beneath the veneer. She tasked him with a Trial of Purpose - to find out '''why''' he desires so much to become a Paladin and defend people - and it has led him to having deep conversations with both Ser Warren and Ms. Roen. Conversations that forced him to re-evaluate his reasons, and seek out why he was so dead-set on still fulfilling his childish goal.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Why did he need to become a Paladin above all else? Couldn't he continue helping people as he did through Momodi and the Adventurer's Guild? It had been fine enough, but at some point he had wanted more. And he knew finding out when that point was would be important for understanding his tempered desire for Paladinhood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Coral Me, Maybe?''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In a bid to get away from Ul'dah, what she believed to be the source of her growing depression, [[Leanne Delphium]] retreated to the sanctuary of her Free Company &amp;quot;The Coral Sea&amp;quot;: their manor in Mist. At her own request - along with his own desire to try to cheer her up - Chachanji began to make frequent trips to the Coral House. Without even noticing, he began to integrate with the myriad of interesting folk there and even got invited to attend the wedding between their First Mate [[Dhemgeim Shyrdoenwyn]] and [[Tausenadel Geispyrsyn]]. At some point, he quietly approached them and applied to join their ranks.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: But even before he was inducted amongst their number, he had a hand in aiding them. He stepped forward when they asked for help in dealing with a cult of madmen who sought to use people as little more than cattle to have aether drawn from. His journey into one of their hideouts to save the captives would be his first bonding moment with [[Jancis Milburga]], who seemed the only one in their four-man team that seemed to agree with his non-lethal preferences. Together they all reached the deepest depths, and apprehended a crazed Lalafell and his harp.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: He stepped in again to help after he learned of a great tragedy that had befallen the Coral Sea. Not long after the wedding, Dhem took a turn for the worse due to a pre-existing condition - and the desperate bid to save her resulted in the loss of her life. Having just won the Grindstone a sun or two before learning this, Chachanji took a large chunk of it and proffered it up to the widower Tau to aid in funeral preparation along with his condolences and a somber request to be there at the funeral. After they had so openly accepted him and invited the little Dunesfolk to their wedding, he felt it was the least he could do.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It was also through Coral House where he crossed paths again with the bombastic pink-haired Lalafell [[Memeli Meli]], who had he encountered what seemed like moons before in a one-off incident at the Quicksand. She seemed to be just as energetic and carefree as ever - until the day after he had been tricked into attending Meli's all-girl slumber party and forced into pajamas and makeup. What started as a covert operation to her room to reclaim the clothes left there, he stumbled upon a drained and disoriented Memeli and quickly learned of her aetheric imbalance and the danger it presented to her. His fears for her health and welfare only grew stronger when she had a second such &amp;quot;attack&amp;quot; in the Quicksand. He interjected then, offering his help and nearly demanding that the pink-haired Lalafell seek help for her problem.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Their relationship slowly deepened as Memeli's condition grew worse - she began losing days at a time to slumber and her aetheric imbalance ate away at her hair and skin, the latter being something unknown to him until he finally convinced her to show him the reason behind her sudden interest in hats and hoods. He refused to leave her side, and continued to press for her to seek help along offering whatever he could himself. It's no small wonder then that, even despite his kinda-sorta relationship with [[Yukumazi Mikazi]] that had been borne from a timid kiss at the slumber party, the two would fall into a more serious relationship. Chachanji officially started dating Memeli after a quiet conversation out in front of Coral House, after a surprisingly touching Pie Swap.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: To add to this rapidly spreading web of relationships and connections, another individual entered his life during all this - on a trip back to Ul'dah to continue his mentorship under Ser Warren and Ms. Roen, no less. This was the Doman-raised Plainsfolk [[Virara Wakuwa]], who he found seeking the Holyfist at the behest of her Master... in order to kill him. Shock gave way to worry and then concern - not for the Holyfist, but for Virara herself - as he learned of her past and her stubborn belief that one could only rely on one's self. He has since been seeking to show her the strength in helping others, and to teach her the power of friendship starting with offering his own. She was originally hostile to his views, but has become much more open to his words after their fateful duel outside the walls of Ul'dah over their differing opinions - even going so far as to take on one [[Dren Ghonne]] much in the same way he did her.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: The roller-coaster of fate still had much in store for the youngest Gegenji, however. Not suns after the Pie Swap, he learned that the cultists had returned and kidnapped both Ms. Jancis and the masked fortune-teller [[Iskierka Stormspeaker]] to be used as their latest captives. While he was visibly upset about being detoured into dealing with the many aether-draining machines first, Chachan joined the fray and aided in setting back the cultists' plans. Shortly after that, he would head once more into the breach, this time with the Coralites successfully seeing the return of both their kidnapped members.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And the hits didn't stop there, though they did begin to turn much more positive. A bit of the conversation between Meli and himself after the Swap came to mind when fellow Coralite [[Sigurd Rainecourt]] announced an expedition into the Wanderer's Palace. The little Lalafell tagged along and, in doing so, learned from the enslaved tonberries that his older brother had once come through there - in fact, having aided in freeing them from the yoke of oppression under their horrible King. In seeking more information, Chachanji echoed his brother's path, though this time he was rescuing them from the Mamool Ja. While he learned little on his brother's current whereabouts, the youngest Gegenji took solace in the fact that his brother was still alive.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Bolstered by such news, Chachanji finally executed his plan for a surprise cheering-up party for his &amp;quot;adopted&amp;quot; sister Leanne, who had started getting help for her worsening depression. It turned out to be a rousing success on many fronts, not only did the Miqo'te seem to start smiling more and being an all-around happier person, she and Chachan adopted the wayward Virara into their little oddball &amp;quot;family.&amp;quot; In addition, who should attend but Ser Coatleque Crofte, allowing Chachan to finally approach her about the findings of his Trial of Purpose. While initially nervous, the following meeting with the Sultansworn in her Ul'dahn office resulted in his official recognition as a Free Paladin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Pink-Convenient Truths''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: With the return of Jancis, along with the help of a few others within Coral, Memeli managed to recover from her aetheric imbalance and returned to her normal, bombastic pink-haired self. While this would be cause for celebration, this also meant a sharp uptick in her pranks and antics. Which led to Chachanji being witness to one, but two duels that followed her recovered strength, wherein he learned just how out-of-hand she could become in the heat of battle. One was a (initially) more friendly match between Meli and Virara where he intercepted a flaming claw that would've pierced the latter's chest, and the other a much angst-ridden clash against the spurned Koporo that almost ended tragically via fireball overkill. While the youngest Gegenji managed to step in and prevent both potentially fatal blows, the fact that Memeli always seems upset about his doing so has become a bit worrying. And that issues are not just between the Lalafellan couple.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: In fact, the fallout of the fight betwixt her and Koporo has actually soured Chachanji's relations with the Lalafellan Sultansworn, with the latter going so far as to blame Chachanji personally for all the recent downturns in his life. Tensions have arisen even with Ser Warren and his newly wedded wife [[Sei Castille]], with their warning of the boy's favoring of his sometimes-violently erratic girlfriend. Sei even went so far as to consider their relationship a mistake and that Chachan should seek to control Meli's wild tendencies, much to the Dunesfolk's chagrin. He adamantly believed that he wasn't favoring Meli over anyone else he cares about, and would certainly rather guide her to more responsible decisions over an out-and-out attempt to force his will upon her.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Such concerns came to the fore as Little Lady's Day drew ever closer, an event that was nerve-wracking enough for the little Lalafell considering he planned to give both Memeli and Virara gifts in return for their Valentione's Day chocolates (Meli's gift requiring the assistance of fellow Coralite [[Jajara Jara]]). A misunderstanding over one of Meli's numerous teasings and flirtings resulted in confusion over the state of their relationship, confrontation over what both Lalafell wanted out of it, and an eventual reconciliation. However, the other subject of the teasings - Virara, whose understanding of love and relationships was even worse than Chachan's - didn't quite come out so unscathed. In fact, before she declared the events of the day never happened, the youngest Gegenji discovered that the soft-spoken Plainsfolk may have feelings for him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Memeli had demanded that Chachanji to give her gifts when her heart wavered, to talk with her when they had disagreements. Most of all, however, she had demanded that he not be willing to let her go - even going so far as to be willing to fight for her - which raised concerns in the little Doman until the situation with Virara was resolved through a heartfelt discussion in Meli's room. So, it should come as no surprise that - after an altercation with a spirit resulted in the stealing of the pink-haired popoto's face - he would do all he could to help her, even if it meant suffering such strange events as getting his mouth wired shut after failing the ghost's riddles. However, be it due to this strange, confidence-crushing situation she found herself in - or perhaps just a bit of that devil-may-care whimsy that attracted him to her in the first place - Meli seemed to heel-turn on her prior desire for staying together and broke off the relationship with the little green-haired Lalafell, claiming lost interest and a desire not to be tied down given her situation.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It had been Chachanji who had broken up with Yukumazi in his first ever relationship, so he had only seen the fallout from the side of the instigator. Being on the receiving end was... less than pleasant for the little Lalafell, and it took a bit of quiet introspection in front of the forge to come to grips with it. However, Meli had at least stated that she still wanted to remain friends, so he was able to take some comfort in that, along with an enigmatic hinting that he was free to keep &amp;quot;fighting&amp;quot; for her if he so wished. And yet, he still worries about imposing on that free spirit of hers he enjoys so much, and certainly does not wish to tread the same path Koporo did when she broke up with ''him''. Which left him at an impasse. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: He certainly wanted to stay friends, to maintain the odd little trio they had developed along with Virara. Yet bits of confusion and sadness about the sudden event made doing so difficult. Jancis' &amp;quot;Meli Day&amp;quot; only exacerbated such feelings and, to avoid going down the same route as Koporo, the little Lalafell decided to heed the words of newly joined Coralite [[Lilithium Rinannis]] and spend some time away from Coralhaus. He returned to his family up in Revenant's Toll, and was immediately put to work by his father - though he still found plenty of opportunities to sneak away and help with (and ultimately be a part of the resolution of) Meli's missing face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Wake Me Up Before You Gogon''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
: Amongst matters of face-stealing spirits, stealthy attackers after Virara to get at her Master, and the fallout from the whole cultist situation where Jancis was initally kidnapped, a more personal matter arose once more amongst all the others. Perhaps by chance or a fate spun by Nymeia's wheel, Chachan's &amp;quot;adopted sister&amp;quot; Leanne happened across Chachanji's missing older brother at the Bobbing Cork in Fallgourd Float. And it was not a pleasant meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: A conversation turned into an altercation upon the arrival of [[Annunu Nunu]] that resulted in a shattered linkshell, a temporarily paralyzed hand, and a disturbing bit of information. For some reason or another, Gogonji believes his brother and his family to be ''dead'' and sees Garlean threats on all sides. Are they real or are they merely figments of a paranoid mind? After all, he accused Leanne herself - a rather notable bard and adventurer in her own right - of being little more than a Garlean spy before escaping into the night, his retreat covered by Annunu.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It could only be fate, then, that Chachan himself would stumble across his brother during his stay at the Toll. A shout and the briefest of chases led to a conflict that left the little Lalafell reeling - in more ways than one. His brother refused to recognize him, even going so far as to accuse him of being a Garlean spy and attacking him! This left little Chachan burned, injured, and with little to go on regarding his brother's mind beyond a map riddled with shorthand notes.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It was his friends that rose to his aid in the matter. From his fellow Coralites coming at his father's behest to tend to the injured boy, to deciphering the notes and the meaning behind the map, to over a dozen of them turning up to stop the crazed plan of his brother to reignite the simmering flame of war between the Eorzean Alliance and Garlemald. Together, they chased after the commanders of Khamja - his brother's organization of revenge-hungry Eorzeans and Domans - and captured them before they could cause too much damage. And, together, they delved into Castrum Centri to stop Gogonji from trying to sneak into Garlemald itself and murder their newly-crowned Emperor in the name of revenge.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: What awaited them was not just a revenge-stricken Doman and the doll-faced Lalafell who remained steadfast at his side, but a tale of loneliness and desperation. Annunu was defeated and she retreated to the final confrontation, where they all witnessed the depths of Gogonji's madness - wrought from the spirits of the Soul Crystals he had collected and technologically forced to obey him. Together, Chachan and his friends overcame the might of ten ancient heroes manifested in one Lalafellan form... and Gogonji was left unconscious after a brief moment of mental clarity.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: The following days were worrisome for Chachanji - and not just from fretting over his brother's long slumber in the Free Company's Medical Ward. A fledgling primal lodged in Memeli was spurred to life - possibly incited by Gogon's actions - and overtook the pink-haired Lalafell. So, while the elder Gegenji was recovering, the younger was caught dealing with a False Phoenix that ultimately left Meli in a coma upon its first defeat, and another Coralite badly injured after hopping host and being subsequently laid low again. During this time, Gogonji regained some degree of awareness and mobility, and Chachanji found himself laden with new questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Stop, Hammer Time''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
: In the battles with the False Phoenix, Chachanji was forced to come to a realization about himself. As much as he wanted to be a hero and protect others - he was not without his many, many flaws in that regard. The most obvious was his combat prowess - which was wrought solely from moons of training with Ser Warren, and not from any sort of natural talent as clearly displayed in his numerous Grindstone attempts. Secondly, and possibly more pressing, was his lack of any sort of &amp;quot;killer instinct&amp;quot; like what Virara possessed; when faced with situations where someone might die, he froze up in stutters and inactivity. All he had was his stubborn desire to help and - perhaps the only real concrete thing he could bring to the table - the weapons and armor he crafted.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And it was the latter which had barely managed to squeak by with. While the Primal's weakened essence had been captured in a rod of his make, his armor had been torn to ribbons under its fiery talons during the final battle. If all he had was the things he could make, what good was he if they failed to meet the requirements? Such worries forced his attentions back to his profession, seeking to improve his skill at the smithy. Days of study and practice turned to frustration and mulling over fruit juice as he hit a plateau.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Things seemed to come full circle, with aid coming from Virara as he had aided her back when they first met. She too had seemed to have hit a wall in her own martial training, and sought the lands beyond Ishgard for a fresh outlook. At first hesitant and worried, little Chachan was eventually turned to the idea and possibly using the purple-haired Plainsfolk's training as a way to hone his own skills as well. Now he seeks to call in a promised favor by the Lady of the Red Wings - [[Cliodhna Eoghan]] - to provide the stymied Lalafell the wings to reach these foreign lands...&lt;br /&gt;

''Please feel free to add your own rumors!''&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Well he's okay guy to talk to infact he helped me once by Fitting my Armor&amp;quot;. [[Cyneler Fenrir]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;I'll do what I can to teach him. My concerns aren't with his learning, but with the world he has to face afterwards.&amp;quot; [[Warren Castille]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;He reminds me of someone I used to know. And I miss her. I hope he never forgets who he is now, come what may. Actually... I am hopeful that he will remind others what they have long forgotten. &amp;quot; - [[Roen Deneith]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;...I want to steal Gran.&amp;quot; - [[Steel Wolf]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;It's my sincere hope that one day, Chachanji will be one of the finest heroes of his generation, so I can get the perks of having known him in my old age.&amp;quot; - [[Artemis Newton]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;He's so sweet, as his little pet! He really seemed to adore Mikh'a! Never seen a man get so smitten over a baby.&amp;quot; - [[Lilithium Altair]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;He don't need it from me, but I'll watch his back.  Ul'dah needs more people like him, that really care about other people without nothing in it for them.&amp;quot; - [[Ha'uruh Nunh]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;He's just like the drink we named after him!  Fizzy, sweet, and just tart enough to make you notice!  I think he's Madam Momodi's favorite champion!&amp;quot; - [[Aya Foxheart]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;Sir Gegenji is brave and has the rare sight to see value in everyone. I admire him greatly far before he came for me. Even reminds me of Cici a little... except shorter. And manly. Younger, too. But, ah, he has a lot of heart and hides it not. I would follow him anywhere in wish his hopes would be fulfilled. - [[Jancis Milburga]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;  &amp;quot;... He's strong... And kind. My hand remembers the day we fought. An unforgettable will to protect. I want to face him again.&amp;quot; - [[Virara Wakuwa]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He's a sweet lad. As much as I enjoyed their display, I can't deny that I'm quietly pleased that Chachanji beat the musclemen tae the title of Mr Eorzea. Heh. Although with that said, he's fairly built himself, particularly for one of the smallfolk. 'Tis a bit odd tae see.&amp;quot; - [[Brynhilde Wulf]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He proved himself a true hero to me when he rescued me from Louvel's cult. And here I used to think he was a naive fool. His kindness humbled me, and made me rethink how quickly I judge.&amp;quot; - [[Iskierka Stormspeaker]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He made a small speech at the Celebration of the Builder.  A foreigner who does not even acknowledge the Divinity of the Twelve struck me as an odd choice for a speaker, particularly one who, by all appearances, had never spoken publicly in his life.  Perhaps the organizers were short on volunteers for the event.  Hopefully during his time in Eorzea, his dispassionate appreciation for the Builder may grow into a more sincere form of worship, but time shall tell.&amp;quot; - [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Leanne Delphium]], aka &amp;quot;Ms. Hat&amp;quot; - The two of them have kind of &amp;quot;adopted&amp;quot; each other as siblings, and care for each other deeply as such. When she's happy, he's happy and seeing her distressed upsets him - so the consecutive blows to her life and overall outlook have been extra hard on the little Lalafell. As such, he'll do almost anything he can to cheer her up and try to remind her that there are many people out there that really care about her. Her &amp;quot;little brother&amp;quot; definitely included. Best frands forever, Ms. Hat.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Warren Castille]] - Chachanji's arms teacher, who saved him from assault by angry bee outside Ul'dah, and now serves to teach him how to fight with sword and shield. If he knew what it meant, the Lalafell might even admit to having a platonic man-crush on the Free Paladin, whom he sees as both strong and righteous.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Roen Deneith]] - Met by happenstance through Gran bumping into her, Roen has become Chachan's second teacher, the &amp;quot;Free-Sworn&amp;quot; having that heroic heart that the Lalafell so admires. Whenever he sees her, she seems to be helping people, which is exactly what he wants to do. She's also been teaching him how to ride his Chocobo, Avenger.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Memeli Meli]] - The overly cheerful demeanor and seemingly boundless self-confidence of this bombastic pink-haired Lalafell initially grabbed Chachanji's interest, and a series of incidents involving her aether going wild made him realize how scared he was to lose her. While their sudden relationship seems to have ended just as abruptly as it began, he still cares for her - even if it's just as a friend.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Virara Wakuwa]] - In an already bizarre roster of folks Chachan calls friend, Virara is exceptionally odd. Possessing a monstrous strength (and appetite, he's come to find...), she seems more focused on fighting and relying on one's self. Yet, when he hears her talk of her Master, as much as she says she wants to kill her, he can't help but think there's something more there. He seeks to deter her from such a fatalistic reunion and show her a different way - and the power of friendship and helping others.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Ha'uruh Nunh]] - Good ol' Howl. Chachanji met him through Ser Warren, and has quickly forged a friendship with the guy. Though the man's brief stint as the opposite gender confused the little Lalafell, the reasonings for it and the Miqo'te's more subdued nature as of late has little Chachan trying his best to bring a smile to Howl's face and bring him in closer into his circle of friends.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Jancis Milburga]] - One of the many &amp;quot;princesses&amp;quot; of the Coral Sea, Chachan honestly considers Jancis a wonderful person and a good friend. The Conjurer's gentle and friendly nature is so very admirable to the little Lalafell, and he would do much to ensure that she can continue to help others unhindered. He went so far as to prove that point when he sought to rescue her and another Coralite from a band of cultists and their aether-draining machines.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Artemis Newton]] - One of the first folks Chachan met in Ul'dah, and one of the first to attempt to improve his swordplay and point him on the path to Paladinhood. Her myriad skill sets and knowledge on multiple matters (either personally or knowing someone who does) has been helpful to the little Lalafell to learn more about Eorzea in general.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Ninifae Nira]] - Met through Ms. Artemis, Nira helped Chachan through his first few days in Ul'dah almost as much as the Hyur! He's always in awe of her seemingly vast amounts of knowledge, and is most likely the first person besides his own brother that he'd think of when it came to booksmarts. With the latter still MIA, that means Nira holds a special place as the person for Chachan to turn to when he needs to know something.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Flickering Ember]] - While their first meeting was a bit of a terrifying one - the Roegadyn having reverted to a feral state - Chachan felt a strong desire to help calm her down so that she could be helped by the Coral medical staff. Ever since, he's tried to keep an eye out for his much larger new friend, doubly so since she lacks sight. If she ever needs help, Chachan would certainly be among the first in line to give it.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Coatleque Crofte]] - Chachanji has his eyes on this predominant Sultansworn to be his third teacher. Her calm and collected approach, along with her apparent ability to always know what to say or do, being something he wants to emulate. He has approached her about this and been given a &amp;quot;Trial of Purpose,&amp;quot; and where this leads for the both of them is still up in the air.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Shas Tarry]] - A Sultansworn that Chachan met through Leanne and has come to see as quite the friend and another example of how close Paladins in general are to his heroic ideals. She's been there for him almost as much as Leanne herself, and is quite close to being bumped up on this list.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Romy Leonhardt]] - Another Sultansworn that Chachan thought was actually fully-fledged until he heard she was, in fact, still in training. Though he may question her motives and sense of humor at time, she's both strong and reliable. Though, with the recent loss and reattachment of her shield arm, he's been a little more worried about the lady 'Sworn.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Kage Kiryuu]] - A fellow Lalafell that both got Chachan accidentally entered into his first Grindstone, and served as his adviser when he had his first big fight with Leanne. The guy seems a bit distant at times, but Chachan thinks they're on a good track to becoming fast friends, and possibly even smithy buddies!&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Aiden Church]] - A Sultansworn hopeful Chachanji came across in an interesting incident at the Quicksand. The farm boy's short temper and overzealous nature continues to exasperate the little Lalafell, but the Hyur's dream also resonates with him. As such, Chachan has found himself trying to keep an eye out for Aiden and keep him from blowing his chances. This has the added effect of the spritely Lalafell somehow being the straight man in most of their interactions. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Alexaria Whiteraven]] - Helping save a Lalafell from freezing to death from being a dumb is a great way to gain some measure of respect in his eyes. She's also helped him with the strange rabbit stone he received in the mail, though she was a bit dodgy in her advice. While he's not ''completely'' sure of the lady, he likes her well enough.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Koporo Aporo]] - Meetings between these two Lalafell seemed to always quickly devolve into arguing over whether Chachanji should be able to keep his pet baby behemoth, Gran, or not and usually consisted of personal jabs and derisive nicknames. Even after beating &amp;quot;Mumbles&amp;quot; in the Grindstone and getting a promise to not harass him about Gran, the other Dunesfolk continued to rub him the wrong way. The final straw happened during the Halone pilgrimage, and has all but ruined any remaining goodwill Chachan has for the older Lalafell.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Roysia Stone]] - A Sultansworn-in-Training that started her training at the same time Chachanji started his own. First they were &amp;quot;rivals&amp;quot; to see who would complete their goal first, though Rose ultimate won that particular race. Then she and Leanne dated, and the subsequent breakup that left his &amp;quot;Big Sister&amp;quot; depressed and heartbroken immediately soured the Lalafell's opinion on her. He gave her that shin-kicking her promised her, but further lack of interaction since has left little time for their relationship to mend.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Evangeline Primrose]] - Originally thinking the Elezan possessed a good heart, her actions have continued to tarnish his opinion of her. The fact that she and Leanne are quite at odds isn't helping matters much, either. He still holds out some hope that she'll learn what she's doing wrong, but that candle is guttering out quickly.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

'''Chachanji Gegenji''' ''(32nd Sun of the 5th Umbral Moon)'', also known as &amp;quot;Chachan,&amp;quot; is a young Dunesfolk Lalafell from Doma who ultimately seeks to become a great hero and, in doing so, protect all those he cares for - along with everybody else if he can manage it. While not the sharpest sword around, his childish determination and almost completely selfless goodwill towards others seem to be able to bring a smile to even the most cynical of people. Couple that with his surprising strength and constitution, and you have a kind individual who is more than willing to overcome any obstacle in order to see his friends smile.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #ECCA67;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Basic Info&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
Chachanji Gegenji is the youngest son of Zozonji Gegenji, the most recent head of a family of Doman weapon and armorsmiths, and Jijinya Jinya, aspiring daughter of a middling Ul'dahn merchant family who seeks to spread knowledge of the family's wares throughout all of Hydaelyn. He is preceded by his older brother Gogonji Gegenji and his older sister Nininya Ninya, leaving him in the position of spoiled youngest child with not much expected of him.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;section begin=featured-blurb /&amp;gt;Chachanji, like his siblings before him, was trained since he was old enough to hold a smith's hammer to follow in his family's footsteps. As such, he is surprisingly muscled and tough for a Lalafell, along with being quite the competent smithy. However, his rugged form is offset by his baby-like face and his childish, almost romantically-minded beliefs. He firmly believes that he would rather use what he crafts himself and protect others, rather than merely foist them upon those selfsame people for coin. And it was this belief that ultimately resulted in him traveling to the tumultuous city of Ul'dah, where the plights of the downtrodden there has only served to strengthen his beliefs.&amp;lt;section end=featured-blurb /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
One can now often find Chachanji running to and fro about the desert city, usually running errands tasked to him by the Adventurer's Guild by way of the Quicksand's own Momodi. When he's not doing that, he can most likely be found in the company of the surprising number of friends that he has accumulated thus far during his stay. With his eagerness to help and genuinely caring disposition, it's no small wonder that so many would count the Doman Lalafell amongst their allies. Not to mention there are a few that he stubbornly considers his friends, whether they like it or not.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
At Chachanji's side often enough is stalwart, little &amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Gran&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;; a baby behemoth that has quickly become the Lalafell's heroic sidekick-slash-mascot. Originally an oddity that was handed off time and time again between vendors and easily-tricked consumers across Eorzea, the little purple porker has somehow wound up under the Lalafell's care. He's not complaining, though, considering the ample supply of entertainment and treats. Whether or not he's actually a baby behemoth or a piglet made up to look like one is still up in the air.&lt;br /&gt;

====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Quirks&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A bit of an oblivious dork, zeroing in on things that catch his interest and often missing things that haven't. Due to his training as a smith under his father, this often include focusing on someone's arms or armor.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Speaks with a cobbled-together &amp;quot;Eorzean accent&amp;quot; that he's picked up to hide his Doman heritage. While it slips when he's suitably distressed, he's gotten quite used to using it and maintains it more often than not.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;While relatively fluent in Eorzean thanks to the Garlean occupation, he has a harder time wrapping his head around more complicated words (and names) and often breaks them down into oversimplifications, like &amp;quot;in-keg-neato&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;thundermentals.&amp;quot; Others he mispronounces as part of that &amp;quot;Eorzean accent,&amp;quot; and has stuck to them out of habit - &amp;quot;halp&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;swording&amp;quot; being two of the most common.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;As a little hero to be, Chachan often jumps in to try and &amp;quot;halp&amp;quot; people whenever there's a problem, even if he can't solve it. This has included an incident where he tried to talk a thief out of being a thief. This often leads to him taking on more than he can handle, and is likely to lead to him getting frustrated and throwing a fit.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Strengths&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Energetic and positive, always eager to go out and make things better.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Always willing to lend a hand, which often leads to him doing all sorts of tasks and errands.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A loyal, if oddball, friend who will always try to be there for them.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Surprisingly knowledgeable about armor and weapon materials, and knows his way around a smith's hammer.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Weaknesses&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Terrible decision-maker, used to family making the big decisions and cleaning up his messes.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;His friendliness and willingness to help also makes him easily fleeced and taken advantage of.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;A bit of a crybaby, and can shut down if things go south for him.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;li&amp;gt;While he's been learning how to use sword and shield to protect people, he hasn't learned some of the &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;other&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; necessary points to help people, leading him to a couple &amp;quot;round peg, square hole&amp;quot; situations.&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #ECCA67;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Biography&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Childhood&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji, like his siblings before him, was born in Doma and taught by his parents in the ways of business and metallurgy. However, it was silently understood that the eldest - Gogonji - would take over as family head once Zozonji and Jijinya stepped down. However, he was still expected to aid in the smithing of the arms and armor that was his family's lifeblood, so any slacking on that front met with strict discipline from his father. As such, his skill in smithing so no less than his siblings, though most of his economic and business lectures were oft spent daydreaming about fighting dragons and saving princesses.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Such heroic ideals extended to what little free time was afforded to him between his lectures, where he liked to play hero - swinging around a stick or one of his smithing hammers to defeat whatever dastardly shadow or bush that dared to cross him. Such adventures often resulted in him breaking something or injuring himself, ready to be pounced upon by his dour-faced father. However, more than one punishment was dissuaded by his elder brother Gogonji, who sought to protect the freedom that he lived vicariously through his younger brother.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:  As such, Chachan latched on to his older brother more than anyone else, often seeking to remain as close to his eldest sibling during lectures and nagging the future head of the family into playing with him. He was not unlike a Chocobo chick, always pattering along a couple steps behind his brother. For in his young eyes, Gogonji could do no wrong, and the mental acuity of his older brother - a trait inherited from their mother's side, though it was a resource that seemed exhausted by the time Chachanji was born - always left the little Lalafell in awe and wonder.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Teenage&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: So, it should come as no surprise that the most shocking event in Chachanji's young life was when he overheard a heated argument between Zozonji and Gogonji. The normally quiet and studious Gogon was suddenly voicing his disinterest in taking on the family business! He believed that simple weapons and armor paled before the might of tactics and knowledge, which had the added benefit of having uses outside just combat. He spoke of the Arcanists of the south seas, he described tales of the Scholars of Nym. Spearheading the manipulation and control of information, he argued, was a better goal than stubbornly relying on antiquated weaponry - already dated against Garlean's magitek advances, even as the Garleans themselves snapped up the family's wares.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji retreated as the fight continued, afraid of being discovered or - worse - dragged into it. All he knew was that, shortly after that, Gogonji disappeared from their demesne, leaving naught behind but one of his two Cactaur earrings on Chachan's nightstand. The upset young Lalafell tearfully approached his father for clarification, for any information on where his older brother had gone to, but was gruffly dismissed and ordered to redouble his efforts on his studies. For after all, which Gogonji gone, it fell upon the second (and only other) son to take up the family business. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: What little free time Chachanji possessed before then all but evaporated. From dawn till dusk, he was either at the forge learning how to bend metal to his will or trapped behind a desk to droning and confusing lectures on proper business practices. And, while Chachanji would still dream of being a hero, he found himself frequently wondering where Gogonji was. What he was doing. If he was happy.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: As such did the next five years pass, with Chachanji's mind often drifting to thoughts about his wayward elder brother. His mental deficiencies continued to harangue his parents, and the matters of finance were soon hefted upon his older sister Nininya, who showed much more mental aptitude for it, though she bemoaned her fate nonetheless. As such, the forge became the center of the youngest Gegenji's world. Until, after a particularly vivid recollection of the argument between Gogonji and their father, Chachanji decided he had suffered enough.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Like his brother before him, Chacha confronted his father in within the smoky confines of the family's forge. However, his complaints were much more whimsical than calculating, more fanciful than fiscally sound. To the bright-eyed youngster, it was obvious the Domans held no love for Garlemald, so why not support the Eorzean Alliance more openly? Why not take up the arms they so lovingly crafted and defend Doma, Ul'dah, and the rest of Hydaelyn from their oppressors rather than just turn around and sell them to the highest bidder!? Buyers who included the Garleans themselves!&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Chachanji remembers little of how the rest of the argument played out, either too upset to remember or having actively refused to commit it to memory. All that he knew that he was on a ship to Ul'dah, to the land of his mother, to do more to help people than just offer them a fine blade for a price. Once there, the gap between the haves and the have-nots only inflamed his passion. He quickly found work with Momodi, taking tasks to try and make each day a little bit better for the locals - all the while dreaming of doing something bigger and better.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And yet, every once in a while, he'd look out through his bedroom window and wonder. How was his family doing? Where they okay? And what of Gogonji, who had still heard naught of even in the rumor-laden bustle of the Quicksand?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Present&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Ul'dah Small Things''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Imagine Chachanji's fear, then, when he heard of the razing of Doma. While he and his father had separated on less-than-friendly circumstances, those nightly musings were proof enough that he still truly cared for his family. So, when the refugees came to Ul'dah, Chachanji dropped everything to go see them - only to find they had been barred from the city just like the Ala Mhigans. Chachan himself almost ended up being ejected from the city along with them due to his heritage, but it was Momodi again who came to his rescue with paperwork proving the young Lalafell a properly registered adventurer under her employ and thus exempt from the ousting. Of course, the Doman Lalafell has still managed to end up in a poor spot or two due to this, and he quickly learned to keep his heritage quiet to avoid any more unneeded complications.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Despite that, the decision to travel to Ul'dah seemed to be mostly prosperous for the little hero-to-be. He's managed to make many friends during his stay there (with an oddly disproportionate number of them being Sultansworn), made a bit of a name for himself as an able hand around Ul'dah, and even began his training to become a Paladin under the watchful eyes of [[Warren Castille]], [[Roen Deneith]], and (hopefully soon) Ser [[Coatleque Crofte]]. He's even found a sort of pseudo-family in his &amp;quot;adopted big sister&amp;quot; [[Leanne Delphium]], and slowly came to see the Hourglass as a sort of second home to replace the fallen Doma.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: However, it was not all sunshine and rainbows as Chachanji would often try to make it seem. With his family trundled off to Revenant's Toll with the rest of the Doman refugees, he often found himself wondering if he should rejoin them and help them recover before following his own dream. Not to mention that his penchant for wanting to help as many people as he can leads to its own litany of problems - from dealing with a duel between [[Evangeline Primrose]] and [[Aiden Church]] to [[Romy Leonhardt]]'s losing of an arm and subsequent requesting of a reinforced gauntlet. His overwhelming desire to help as many people as he could, coupled with his often lacking ability to do so, resulted in two rather childish tantrums - one turned against his own adopted sister, who was slowly spiraling into depression.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Even his childish dream of heroism through becoming a Paladin has had several unexpected snares. Most of it stemming for a conversation with Ser Crofte when he sought her council as a third mentor. Her insistent questions poked obvious holes in his childlike dream, yet revealing a curious determination beneath the veneer. She tasked him with a Trial of Purpose - to find out '''why''' he desires so much to become a Paladin and defend people - and it has led him to having deep conversations with both Ser Warren and Ms. Roen. Conversations that forced him to re-evaluate his reasons, and seek out why he was so dead-set on still fulfilling his childish goal.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Why did he need to become a Paladin above all else? Couldn't he continue helping people as he did through Momodi and the Adventurer's Guild? It had been fine enough, but at some point he had wanted more. And he knew finding out when that point was would be important for understanding his tempered desire for Paladinhood.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Coral Me, Maybe?''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In a bid to get away from Ul'dah, what she believed to be the source of her growing depression, [[Leanne Delphium]] retreated to the sanctuary of her Free Company &amp;quot;The Coral Sea&amp;quot;: their manor in Mist. At her own request - along with his own desire to try to cheer her up - Chachanji began to make frequent trips to the Coral House. Without even noticing, he began to integrate with the myriad of interesting folk there and even got invited to attend the wedding between their First Mate [[Dhemgeim Shyrdoenwyn]] and [[Tausenadel Geispyrsyn]]. At some point, he quietly approached them and applied to join their ranks.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: But even before he was inducted amongst their number, he had a hand in aiding them. He stepped forward when they asked for help in dealing with a cult of madmen who sought to use people as little more than cattle to have aether drawn from. His journey into one of their hideouts to save the captives would be his first bonding moment with [[Jancis Milburga]], who seemed the only one in their four-man team that seemed to agree with his non-lethal preferences. Together they all reached the deepest depths, and apprehended a crazed Lalafell and his harp.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: He stepped in again to help after he learned of a great tragedy that had befallen the Coral Sea. Not long after the wedding, Dhem took a turn for the worse due to a pre-existing condition - and the desperate bid to save her resulted in the loss of her life. Having just won the Grindstone a sun or two before learning this, Chachanji took a large chunk of it and proffered it up to the widower Tau to aid in funeral preparation along with his condolences and a somber request to be there at the funeral. After they had so openly accepted him and invited the little Dunesfolk to their wedding, he felt it was the least he could do.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It was also through Coral House where he crossed paths again with the bombastic pink-haired Lalafell [[Memeli Meli]], who had he encountered what seemed like moons before in a one-off incident at the Quicksand. She seemed to be just as energetic and carefree as ever - until the day after he had been tricked into attending Meli's all-girl slumber party and forced into pajamas and makeup. What started as a covert operation to her room to reclaim the clothes left there, he stumbled upon a drained and disoriented Memeli and quickly learned of her aetheric imbalance and the danger it presented to her. His fears for her health and welfare only grew stronger when she had a second such &amp;quot;attack&amp;quot; in the Quicksand. He interjected then, offering his help and nearly demanding that the pink-haired Lalafell seek help for her problem.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Their relationship slowly deepened as Memeli's condition grew worse - she began losing days at a time to slumber and her aetheric imbalance ate away at her hair and skin, the latter being something unknown to him until he finally convinced her to show him the reason behind her sudden interest in hats and hoods. He refused to leave her side, and continued to press for her to seek help along offering whatever he could himself. It's no small wonder then that, even despite his kinda-sorta relationship with [[Yukumazi Mikazi]] that had been borne from a timid kiss at the slumber party, the two would fall into a more serious relationship. Chachanji officially started dating Memeli after a quiet conversation out in front of Coral House, after a surprisingly touching Pie Swap.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: To add to this rapidly spreading web of relationships and connections, another individual entered his life during all this - on a trip back to Ul'dah to continue his mentorship under Ser Warren and Ms. Roen, no less. This was the Doman-raised Plainsfolk [[Virara Wakuwa]], who he found seeking the Holyfist at the behest of her Master... in order to kill him. Shock gave way to worry and then concern - not for the Holyfist, but for Virara herself - as he learned of her past and her stubborn belief that one could only rely on one's self. He has since been seeking to show her the strength in helping others, and to teach her the power of friendship starting with offering his own. She was originally hostile to his views, but has become much more open to his words after their fateful duel outside the walls of Ul'dah over their differing opinions - even going so far as to take on one [[Dren Ghonne]] much in the same way he did her.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: The roller-coaster of fate still had much in store for the youngest Gegenji, however. Not suns after the Pie Swap, he learned that the cultists had returned and kidnapped both Ms. Jancis and the masked fortune-teller [[Iskierka Stormspeaker]] to be used as their latest captives. While he was visibly upset about being detoured into dealing with the many aether-draining machines first, Chachan joined the fray and aided in setting back the cultists' plans. Shortly after that, he would head once more into the breach, this time with the Coralites successfully seeing the return of both their kidnapped members.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And the hits didn't stop there, though they did begin to turn much more positive. A bit of the conversation between Meli and himself after the Swap came to mind when fellow Coralite [[Sigurd Rainecourt]] announced an expedition into the Wanderer's Palace. The little Lalafell tagged along and, in doing so, learned from the enslaved tonberries that his older brother had once come through there - in fact, having aided in freeing them from the yoke of oppression under their horrible King. In seeking more information, Chachanji echoed his brother's path, though this time he was rescuing them from the Mamool Ja. While he learned little on his brother's current whereabouts, the youngest Gegenji took solace in the fact that his brother was still alive.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Bolstered by such news, Chachanji finally executed his plan for a surprise cheering-up party for his &amp;quot;adopted&amp;quot; sister Leanne, who had started getting help for her worsening depression. It turned out to be a rousing success on many fronts, not only did the Miqo'te seem to start smiling more and being an all-around happier person, she and Chachan adopted the wayward Virara into their little oddball &amp;quot;family.&amp;quot; In addition, who should attend but Ser Coatleque Crofte, allowing Chachan to finally approach her about the findings of his Trial of Purpose. While initially nervous, the following meeting with the Sultansworn in her Ul'dahn office resulted in his official recognition as a Free Paladin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Pink-Convenient Truths''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: With the return of Jancis, along with the help of a few others within Coral, Memeli managed to recover from her aetheric imbalance and returned to her normal, bombastic pink-haired self. While this would be cause for celebration, this also meant a sharp uptick in her pranks and antics. Which led to Chachanji being witness to one, but two duels that followed her recovered strength, wherein he learned just how out-of-hand she could become in the heat of battle. One was a (initially) more friendly match between Meli and Virara where he intercepted a flaming claw that would've pierced the latter's chest, and the other a much angst-ridden clash against the spurned Koporo that almost ended tragically via fireball overkill. While the youngest Gegenji managed to step in and prevent both potentially fatal blows, the fact that Memeli always seems upset about his doing so has become a bit worrying. And that issues are not just between the Lalafellan couple.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: In fact, the fallout of the fight betwixt her and Koporo has actually soured Chachanji's relations with the Lalafellan Sultansworn, with the latter going so far as to blame Chachanji personally for all the recent downturns in his life. Tensions have arisen even with Ser Warren and his newly wedded wife [[Sei Castille]], with their warning of the boy's favoring of his sometimes-violently erratic girlfriend. Sei even went so far as to consider their relationship a mistake and that Chachan should seek to control Meli's wild tendencies, much to the Dunesfolk's chagrin. He adamantly believed that he wasn't favoring Meli over anyone else he cares about, and would certainly rather guide her to more responsible decisions over an out-and-out attempt to force his will upon her.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Such concerns came to the fore as Little Lady's Day drew ever closer, an event that was nerve-wracking enough for the little Lalafell considering he planned to give both Memeli and Virara gifts in return for their Valentione's Day chocolates (Meli's gift requiring the assistance of fellow Coralite [[Jajara Jara]]). A misunderstanding over one of Meli's numerous teasings and flirtings resulted in confusion over the state of their relationship, confrontation over what both Lalafell wanted out of it, and an eventual reconciliation. However, the other subject of the teasings - Virara, whose understanding of love and relationships was even worse than Chachan's - didn't quite come out so unscathed. In fact, before she declared the events of the day never happened, the youngest Gegenji discovered that the soft-spoken Plainsfolk may have feelings for him as well.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Memeli had demanded that Chachanji to give her gifts when her heart wavered, to talk with her when they had disagreements. Most of all, however, she had demanded that he not be willing to let her go - even going so far as to be willing to fight for her - which raised concerns in the little Doman until the situation with Virara was resolved through a heartfelt discussion in Meli's room. So, it should come as no surprise that - after an altercation with a spirit resulted in the stealing of the pink-haired popoto's face - he would do all he could to help her, even if it meant suffering such strange events as getting his mouth wired shut after failing the ghost's riddles. However, be it due to this strange, confidence-crushing situation she found herself in - or perhaps just a bit of that devil-may-care whimsy that attracted him to her in the first place - Meli seemed to heel-turn on her prior desire for staying together and broke off the relationship with the little green-haired Lalafell, claiming lost interest and a desire not to be tied down given her situation.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It had been Chachanji who had broken up with Yukumazi in his first ever relationship, so he had only seen the fallout from the side of the instigator. Being on the receiving end was... less than pleasant for the little Lalafell, and it took a bit of quiet introspection in front of the forge to come to grips with it. However, Meli had at least stated that she still wanted to remain friends, so he was able to take some comfort in that, along with an enigmatic hinting that he was free to keep &amp;quot;fighting&amp;quot; for her if he so wished. And yet, he still worries about imposing on that free spirit of hers he enjoys so much, and certainly does not wish to tread the same path Koporo did when she broke up with ''him''. Which left him at an impasse. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: He certainly wanted to stay friends, to maintain the odd little trio they had developed along with Virara. Yet bits of confusion and sadness about the sudden event made doing so difficult. Jancis' &amp;quot;Meli Day&amp;quot; only exacerbated such feelings and, to avoid going down the same route as Koporo, the little Lalafell decided to heed the words of newly joined Coralite [[Lilithium Rinannis]] and spend some time away from Coralhaus. He returned to his family up in Revenant's Toll, and was immediately put to work by his father - though he still found plenty of opportunities to sneak away and help with (and ultimately be a part of the resolution of) Meli's missing face.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Wake Me Up Before You Gogon''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
: Amongst matters of face-stealing spirits, stealthy attackers after Virara to get at her Master, and the fallout from the whole cultist situation where Jancis was initally kidnapped, a more personal matter arose once more amongst all the others. Perhaps by chance or a fate spun by Nymeia's wheel, Chachan's &amp;quot;adopted sister&amp;quot; Leanne happened across Chachanji's missing older brother at the Bobbing Cork in Fallgourd Float. And it was not a pleasant meeting.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: A conversation turned into an altercation upon the arrival of [[Annunu Nunu]] that resulted in a shattered linkshell, a temporarily paralyzed hand, and a disturbing bit of information. For some reason or another, Gogonji believes his brother and his family to be ''dead'' and sees Garlean threats on all sides. Are they real or are they merely figments of a paranoid mind? After all, he accused Leanne herself - a rather notable bard and adventurer in her own right - of being little more than a Garlean spy before escaping into the night, his retreat covered by Annunu.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It could only be fate, then, that Chachan himself would stumble across his brother during his stay at the Toll. A shout and the briefest of chases led to a conflict that left the little Lalafell reeling - in more ways than one. His brother refused to recognize him, even going so far as to accuse him of being a Garlean spy and attacking him! This left little Chachan burned, injured, and with little to go on regarding his brother's mind beyond a map riddled with shorthand notes.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: It was his friends that rose to his aid in the matter. From his fellow Coralites coming at his father's behest to tend to the injured boy, to deciphering the notes and the meaning behind the map, to over a dozen of them turning up to stop the crazed plan of his brother to reignite the simmering flame of war between the Eorzean Alliance and Garlemald. Together, they chased after the commanders of Khamja - his brother's organization of revenge-hungry Eorzeans and Domans - and captured them before they could cause too much damage. And, together, they delved into Castrum Centri to stop Gogonji from trying to sneak into Garlemald itself and murder their newly-crowned Emperor in the name of revenge.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: What awaited them was not just a revenge-stricken Doman and the doll-faced Lalafell who remained steadfast at his side, but a tale of loneliness and desperation. Annunu was defeated and she retreated to the final confrontation, where they all witnessed the depths of Gogonji's madness - wrought from the spirits of the Soul Crystals he had collected and technologically forced to obey him. Together, Chachan and his friends overcame the might of ten ancient heroes manifested in one Lalafellan form... and Gogonji was left unconscious after a brief moment of mental clarity.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: The following days were worrisome for Chachanji - and not just from fretting over his brother's long slumber in the Free Company's Medical Ward. A fledgling primal lodged in Memeli was spurred to life - possibly incited by Gogon's actions - and overtook the pink-haired Lalafell. So, while the elder Gegenji was recovering, the younger was caught dealing with a False Phoenix that ultimately left Meli in a coma upon its first defeat, and another Coralite badly injured after hopping host and being subsequently laid low again. During this time, Gogonji regained some degree of awareness and mobility, and Chachanji found himself laden with new questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;''Stop, Hammer Time''&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;=====&lt;br /&gt;
: In the battles with the False Phoenix, Chachanji was forced to come to a realization about himself. As much as he wanted to be a hero and protect others - he was not without his many, many flaws in that regard. The most obvious was his combat prowess - which was wrought solely from moons of training with Ser Warren, and not from any sort of natural talent as clearly displayed in his numerous Grindstone attempts. Secondly, and possibly more pressing, was his lack of any sort of &amp;quot;killer instinct&amp;quot; like what Virara possessed; when faced with situations where someone might die, he froze up in stutters and inactivity. All he had was his stubborn desire to help and - perhaps the only real concrete thing he could bring to the table - the weapons and armor he crafted.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: And it was the latter which had barely managed to squeak by with. While the Primal's weakened essence had been captured in a rod of his make, his armor had been torn to ribbons under its fiery talons during the final battle. If all he had was the things he could make, what good was he if they failed to meet the requirements? Such worries forced his attentions back to his profession, seeking to improve his skill at the smithy. Days of study and practice turned to frustration and mulling over fruit juice as he hit a plateau.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: Things seemed to come full circle, with aid coming from Virara as he had aided her back when they first met. She too had seemed to have hit a wall in her own martial training, and sought the lands beyond Ishgard for a fresh outlook. At first hesitant and worried, little Chachan was eventually turned to the idea and possibly using the purple-haired Plainsfolk's training as a way to hone his own skills as well. Now he seeks to call in a promised favor by the Lady of the Red Wings - [[Cliodhna Eoghan]] - to provide the stymied Lalafell the wings to reach these foreign lands...&lt;br /&gt;

He made a small speech at the Celebration of the Builder.  A foreigner who does not even acknowledge the Divinity of the Twelve struck me as an odd choice for a speaker, particularly one who, by all appearances, had never spoken publicly in his life.  Perhaps the organizers were short on volunteers for the event.  Hopefully during his time in Eorzea, his dispassionate appreciation for the Builder may grow into a more sincere form of worship, but time shall tell.&amp;quot; - [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#F02311;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; Romantic Interest&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; Platonic Love  &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; Good Standing&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; Poor Standing&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Leanne Delphium]], aka &amp;quot;Ms. Hat&amp;quot; - The two of them have kind of &amp;quot;adopted&amp;quot; each other as siblings, and care for each other deeply as such. When she's happy, he's happy and seeing her distressed upsets him - so the consecutive blows to her life and overall outlook have been extra hard on the little Lalafell. As such, he'll do almost anything he can to cheer her up and try to remind her that there are many people out there that really care about her. Her &amp;quot;little brother&amp;quot; definitely included. Best frands forever, Ms. Hat.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Warren Castille]] - Chachanji's arms teacher, who saved him from assault by angry bee outside Ul'dah, and now serves to teach him how to fight with sword and shield. If he knew what it meant, the Lalafell might even admit to having a platonic man-crush on the Free Paladin, whom he sees as both strong and righteous.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#FA70BC;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;♥&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Roen Deneith]] - Met by happenstance through Gran bumping into her, Roen has become Chachan's second teacher, the &amp;quot;Free-Sworn&amp;quot; having that heroic heart that the Lalafell so admires. Whenever he sees her, she seems to be helping people, which is exactly what he wants to do. She's also been teaching him how to ride his Chocobo, Avenger.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Memeli Meli]] - The overly cheerful demeanor and seemingly boundless self-confidence of this bombastic pink-haired Lalafell initially grabbed Chachanji's interest, and a series of incidents involving her aether going wild made him realize how scared he was to lose her. While their sudden relationship seems to have ended just as abruptly as it began, he still cares for her - even if it's just as a friend.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Virara Wakuwa]] - In an already bizarre roster of folks Chachan calls friend, Virara is exceptionally odd. Possessing a monstrous strength (and appetite, he's come to find...), she seems more focused on fighting and relying on one's self. Yet, when he hears her talk of her Master, as much as she says she wants to kill her, he can't help but think there's something more there. He seeks to deter her from such a fatalistic reunion and show her a different way - and the power of friendship and helping others.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Ha'uruh Nunh]] - Good ol' Howl. Chachanji met him through Ser Warren, and has quickly forged a friendship with the guy. Though the man's brief stint as the opposite gender confused the little Lalafell, the reasonings for it and the Miqo'te's more subdued nature as of late has little Chachan trying his best to bring a smile to Howl's face and bring him in closer into his circle of friends.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Jancis Milburga]] - One of the many &amp;quot;princesses&amp;quot; of the Coral Sea, Chachan honestly considers Jancis a wonderful person and a good friend. The Conjurer's gentle and friendly nature is so very admirable to the little Lalafell, and he would do much to ensure that she can continue to help others unhindered. He went so far as to prove that point when he sought to rescue her and another Coralite from a band of cultists and their aether-draining machines.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Artemis Newton]] - One of the first folks Chachan met in Ul'dah, and one of the first to attempt to improve his swordplay and point him on the path to Paladinhood. Her myriad skill sets and knowledge on multiple matters (either personally or knowing someone who does) has been helpful to the little Lalafell to learn more about Eorzea in general.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Ninifae Nira]] - Met through Ms. Artemis, Nira helped Chachan through his first few days in Ul'dah almost as much as the Hyur! He's always in awe of her seemingly vast amounts of knowledge, and is most likely the first person besides his own brother that he'd think of when it came to booksmarts. With the latter still MIA, that means Nira holds a special place as the person for Chachan to turn to when he needs to know something.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Flickering Ember]] - While their first meeting was a bit of a terrifying one - the Roegadyn having reverted to a feral state - Chachan felt a strong desire to help calm her down so that she could be helped by the Coral medical staff. Ever since, he's tried to keep an eye out for his much larger new friend, doubly so since she lacks sight. If she ever needs help, Chachan would certainly be among the first in line to give it.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Coatleque Crofte]] - Chachanji has his eyes on this predominant Sultansworn to be his third teacher. Her calm and collected approach, along with her apparent ability to always know what to say or do, being something he wants to emulate. He has approached her about this and been given a &amp;quot;Trial of Purpose,&amp;quot; and where this leads for the both of them is still up in the air.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Shas Tarry]] - A Sultansworn that Chachan met through Leanne and has come to see as quite the friend and another example of how close Paladins in general are to his heroic ideals. She's been there for him almost as much as Leanne herself, and is quite close to being bumped up on this list.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Romy Leonhardt]] - Another Sultansworn that Chachan thought was actually fully-fledged until he heard she was, in fact, still in training. Though he may question her motives and sense of humor at time, she's both strong and reliable. Though, with the recent loss and reattachment of her shield arm, he's been a little more worried about the lady 'Sworn.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Kage Kiryuu]] - A fellow Lalafell that both got Chachan accidentally entered into his first Grindstone, and served as his adviser when he had his first big fight with Leanne. The guy seems a bit distant at times, but Chachan thinks they're on a good track to becoming fast friends, and possibly even smithy buddies!&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Aiden Church]] - A Sultansworn hopeful Chachanji came across in an interesting incident at the Quicksand. The farm boy's short temper and overzealous nature continues to exasperate the little Lalafell, but the Hyur's dream also resonates with him. As such, Chachan has found himself trying to keep an eye out for Aiden and keep him from blowing his chances. This has the added effect of the spritely Lalafell somehow being the straight man in most of their interactions. &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#9EC60B;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Alexaria Whiteraven]] - Helping save a Lalafell from freezing to death from being a dumb is a great way to gain some measure of respect in his eyes. She's also helped him with the strange rabbit stone he received in the mail, though she was a bit dodgy in her advice. While he's not ''completely'' sure of the lady, he likes her well enough.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Koporo Aporo]] - Meetings between these two Lalafell seemed to always quickly devolve into arguing over whether Chachanji should be able to keep his pet baby behemoth, Gran, or not and usually consisted of personal jabs and derisive nicknames. Even after beating &amp;quot;Mumbles&amp;quot; in the Grindstone and getting a promise to not harass him about Gran, the other Dunesfolk continued to rub him the wrong way. The final straw happened during the Halone pilgrimage, and has all but ruined any remaining goodwill Chachan has for the older Lalafell.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Roysia Stone]] - A Sultansworn-in-Training that started her training at the same time Chachanji started his own. First they were &amp;quot;rivals&amp;quot; to see who would complete their goal first, though Rose ultimate won that particular race. Then she and Leanne dated, and the subsequent breakup that left his &amp;quot;Big Sister&amp;quot; depressed and heartbroken immediately soured the Lalafell's opinion on her. He gave her that shin-kicking her promised her, but further lack of interaction since has left little time for their relationship to mend.&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#C24640;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;●&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; [[Evangeline Primrose]] - Originally thinking the Elezan possessed a good heart, her actions have continued to tarnish his opinion of her. The fact that she and Leanne are quite at odds isn't helping matters much, either. He still holds out some hope that she'll learn what she's doing wrong, but that candle is guttering out quickly.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is Co-Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaAndRaiByFaye.jpeg|400px|thumb|left|Lilia and Raisan by Faye Covington]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;

Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaAndRaiByFaye.jpeg|400px|thumb|left|Lilia and Raisan by Faye Covington]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|right|288x420px|thumb|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;

Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|left|288x420px|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|left|288x420px|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;

Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;

==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|left|206x300px|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.

For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|center|412x599|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:LiliaLiaByClaiTia.jpeg|left|300x300px|Lilia by C'lai Tia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, or at least ordinary by the standard of a child of the upper social castes.  However, Lilia always was a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Lilia by Nyx.jpg|right|300x300px|Lilia pontificating (Artwork by Nyx Ashkala)]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia is rather amusing; I think she's the only person I've ever seen get on Mimiru's nerves so much that she got thrown out of the infirmary for, like, a week! She's certainly eager and chipper and likes to flaunt her intelligence. Sometimes I want to stuff her and Val into the same small room and just let them go.&amp;quot; - [[Arrelaine_Fashonti|Arrelaine Fashonti]]&lt;br /&gt;

An elder Roegadyn with all the warmth of a cannonball, Hammersmith is an immense Hellsguard who's come out of &amp;quot;retirement&amp;quot; at the behest of someone blowing up large portions of the continent including, but not limited to: Where he was trying to retire to.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Never known for being cheery he's even less such now, having been forced to pick his weapons up again and return to a life already well traveled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;''&amp;quot;I know the cities pretty well.  Helped put a lot of holes in their walls.  Marched through a lot of those holes.  Don't trust walls.  Don't trust cities.  Don't trust people who tell you they're safe.&amp;quot;''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''&amp;quot;Hate's a strong word. I don't use it lightly.  I find I'm using it a lot these days.&amp;quot;''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''&amp;quot;People build.  People tear down.  That ain't stoppin any time soon.&amp;quot;''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''&amp;quot;Cause trouble.  Make things difficult.  Or else someone else will.&amp;quot;''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''&amp;quot;Few things worth being stupid for.  Best enjoy them while you can afford to pay their price.&amp;quot;''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Appearance &amp;amp; Personality&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hammersmith is very, very large, even for a Roegadyn.  His build is a working man's build.  The kind you get when you've never been allowed, or allowed yourself, an extended rest from toil and obligation.  His body is absolutely covered in scars, the most notable being the ones crossing his left eye and the dead orb inside it.  His age is hard to determine.  Without the protective sheath of armor or cloth, the extent of the large roe's scarring becomes even more apparent.  Most of his body is a merged length of burn scars, badly healed blade marks, and several akward craters of keloid flesh peppered throughout.   He could be anywhere from a very haggard 50 to a very well maintained and pissed off 70.  Hammersmith is, above all, a testimony that spite can serve as a preservative.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hammersmith is well spoken, assuming you catch him without a bottle in his mouth.  Given that this is a rare event, most times he speaks with the accent of his childhood village, which makes the torrent of filth, philosophy, and temptation all the harder to understand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hammersmith is slow to actual anger but quick to annoyance and even quicker to act on that annoyance.  People who aren't well acquainted with the giant Hellsguard often find themselves on the receiving end of poor impulse control paired to an even poorer tolerance for bullshit.  What is considered bullshit often has a wild variance at any given time, meaning it's often best not to be within direct reach of Hammersmith at any given time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hammersmith's fighting skills are based on a lifetime of heavy combat and the understanding of skirmishing that comes from it.  It's not flashy and it's not stylish.  It's efficient and practiced, with muscle memory retained from decades of taking people apart step by careful step.  The Hellsguard looks slow, and has a severe disdain for 'showing off'.  This works to his advantage in most cases.  He enjoys brawling but he considers pulling steel on someone as something you only do when you intend to kill them on the spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Known Biography&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Those who have encountered the giant in recent days liken it to camping on a volcano.  It's not a matter of if he's going to cause chaos.  It's a matter of when and how many people are around when he goes off. Attempts to find out why this eye of the storm has returned to the field after so long have revealed the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hammersmith has a military history in Ul'dah, with a long record of service stretching back decades from the current point in time.  The few that recognize the name in the leadership refuse to say more than 'He was a siege master and he was good at his job.'  His claims of retirement are validated by the official record with it marked as almost one year before Dalmud's decent. Several mercenary companies do have some record of a Hellsguard matching Hammersmith's description in their records pre-dating his service to Ul'Dah, though not under that name.  His records of service in the mercenary companies were always short and normally involved an extremely violent campaign against large cities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hammersmith claims that almost everyone he knew before Dalmud's decent is dead.  His age, combined with the high casualty rate of both siege workers and recent cataclysm support his claim.  With little to no support or social structure left to him in his advancing age, it's not a surprise he's been forced to return to the fields of war and his old bloody craft to 'rebuild'.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:What records remain in Limsa also support his claim of &amp;quot;retirement&amp;quot;, with a filed rank of 'master' at the armorer and blacksmithing guilds, as well as a deeds to a plot of land now several feet under water post Dalmud calamity.  There used to be a town there as well, named Copper Grove.  Now it's gone.  The question of why Hammersmith isn't underwater with it is a matter of debate and, for some, lament.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Miscellaneous&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hammersmith's teeth are filed to points.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* His one remaining eye is a dark, bloody red, usually matched to the often burst vessels surrounding it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* One of his current hobbies seems to be participating in the local underground fight circles between stints of &amp;quot;official&amp;quot; work for the Immortal Flames.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hammersmith's loathing of mages is only matched by his utter hatred of chronic liars.  There are guard records from the Yellowjackets several decades ago that suggest a sudden outbreak of tongueless &amp;quot;mutes&amp;quot; was due to politics and Hammersmith meeting head to head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*That's probably not his blood colouring his hair.  But it probably belonged to someone else, at some point, earlier in the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Speaking of which: The Limsa Maurader's guild refuses to speak about Hammersmith in any official capacity and claims to have no records on him.  Even those too young to know Hammersmith from that far back don't talk about his enrollment or lack there of.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hammersmith has been heard, in public, to claim to have had children.  If they survived to adulthood is up for speculation, as is who would be stupid enough to remain in arm's length of him long enough to start raising a family.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Coffee, smokes, and heavy alchohol seem to be all the giant consumes.  Local merchants in Ul'dah note he does purchase large amounts of Hard-Tack from the Immortal Flames stockpiles though. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hammer apparently has an extreme view of the Hellsguardian approach to names.  He views them as disposable and has used multiple over the course of his life when not signing his name to &amp;quot;Official&amp;quot; documents or in close company.  Names suspected to have been associated with a Roe matching Hammer's look, outlook, and attitude include: Pig Iron, Furious Goat, Hay Geezer, Hell Thrower, Tunnel Boar, Wall Demon, Wall Eye, Warm Furnace and High Lantern.  How he came to hold on to &amp;quot;Flameson Hammersmith&amp;quot; as a formal public label doesn't appear to be a story he's telling.&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#90AB76;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;I heard he worked for the Syndicate when he was younger.  He looks like one of their thugs.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#F37E1D;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;One of the Ala Mihgo refugees said one of their leaders knew him before the city fell.  He used to be one of the Destroyer's monks .&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#F37E1D;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;I've seen him offering coins to the Byregot orders.  Something about debts owed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#D83018;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;I heard he makes people sign contracts for smithing work in blood.

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#D83018;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He plays a &amp;quot;Violent Golf&amp;quot; with anything shorter than him.

: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Interesting fellow. For all of his bluster, he was affected when those knives sank into her. Gave me an earful on her behalf. I'd bet he was concerned, not that he'd ever admit it.&amp;quot; -- [[Warren Castille]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He arrived to me at the Grindstone, shirtless, covered in sweat, blood and ichor.  Anyone else and I'd have been disgusted, but on him it looked...natural.  Suitable.  Even a bit alluring, in some sick way.  We'll have to meet again, methinks.&amp;quot; -- [[Steel Wolf]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He keeps trying to get me to admit to something I'm not. . . I don't try to hurt people, I don't care what he says.&amp;quot; -- [[Aaron Frostheart]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Incredibly impressive that. Smart too, wearin' a steel cup in his codpiece. Love 'im for taking Reddard out last I helped Ser Castille by overseeing.&amp;quot; -- [[Kage Kiryuu]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;...whenever I see him at the far side of a bar I start praying to the Twelve a brawl doesn't break out. I think he might use me as a makeshift cannonball.&amp;quot; -- [[Luthiah Reyrmor]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;He's got those cunning eyes... eye. Definitely smarter than he lets on, probably intentional. Who knows?&amp;quot; -- [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;font style=&amp;quot;color:#aac5b4;&amp;quot; size=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;■&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Sir Flameson Hammersmith, forger of breastplates, bane of masonry.  I had been well acquainted with the legends both of his deeds and misdeeds, but only upon speaking with him myself did I get the faintest hint of his secret sophistication.  Sadly the gems of his wisdom are hidden away behind the castle walls of his acerbic personality and incomprehensible dialect.  If he could tear down these walls, then perhaps one day his treasured wisdom would be added to the inventory of his legends.&amp;quot; -- [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;

==Character==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Appearance===&lt;br /&gt;
Rather small for a Lalafell, Kanami has bright pink hair with blue highlights that go down to her lower back. Her eyes were bright pink at birth but on her 16th birthday after touching a mysterious book her left eye turned  an eerie icy blue. On her 18th birthday her right eye changed to blue as well. She has pale skin and a lean body. Wearing her pastel pink yukata gives her a look of elegance despite her behavior. Bearing no scars or any mark on her body. She always carries her grimoire with her and never lets it go or lets anyone touch it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Personality===&lt;br /&gt;
Being brought up in seclusion from the world, Kanami is a rather curious and naive individual. She was raised to trust everyone and to never disrespect others and treat people well. She is a carefree soul and loves to learn new things about the world. Her childish behavior makes her seem much younger than she really is though she loves it. She is ignorant in many social activities and relationships and often asks embarrassing questions. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite her actions most of it is an act or she is simply used to it but such is not known by everyone.&lt;br /&gt;

===PC rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;Sir Alistair's young paigess, Miss Kanami, is a precocious girl to say the least.  I am admittedly uncertain of the true nature of their relationship, and it is strange how both of them have... aetherical familiars.  I wonder what it is that brought the two of them together?&amp;quot; - [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Kanami lived in seclusion from the world with her small tribe somewhere in the La Noscean region. Her tribe was peaceful and devoid of any conflict. Her mother and father were of royal descendants and were the heads of the tribe. Never seeing the outside world nor the destruction and bloodshed that swirled all around they went about their days blissfully ignorant. Their way of comunicating with each other very differnt from the rest of the world. They would humm and sing, using the pitch and vibrations of each other's voices to understand one another. Emotions and what they need/want. On Kanami's 16th birthday she was to learn the origin of her tribe and what they were and why they lived the way they did, away from the world, but destruction eventually came.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hearing rumors of a secluded tribe filled with ancient magics and possibly more riches than you could imagine, a band of Roegadyn's searched and found the location of Kanami's tribe, and soon destroyed everything burning her home to the ground and slaughtering all of her family and friends. Kanami witnessed everything and was unable to do anything as one of the Roegadyn's took her away along with four other girls. Even as she tried to close her eyes to erase everything, she could still hear the melodic sound of her screaming family slowly dieing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kanami and the other girls were bound and thrown into a waggon and were being taken somewhere. As the girls cried Kanami noticed a book at the far end of the waggon that seemed to call to her. She shuffled closer and with her hands bound behind her back, picked up the book. Her hands suddenly were unbound and she stared at the book entranced by it. She flipped through the pages, which were oddly all blank. She began to slowly trace her finger along one of the pages, creating multicolored symbols, her left eye slowly began glowing, taking on an icy blue color. Kanami soon blacked out as a huge explosion happened within the waggon destroying everything, and killing the Roegadyn's and the four girls with her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kanami woke up a few hours later in a deserted road, confused, hurt and had no idea where she was. Next to her floated a fire elemental resembling a beast that looked down at her knowingly. He growled softly at her and hummed softly her then lied down next to a tree. Kanami curiously followed, knowing not what he was but knew far well that whatever he was he had saved her life. She knelt down beside him and slowly reached her hand towards him and began to pet him, expecting the fire to burn her skin. The fire did not burn, instead felt cool and refreshing. Kanami's eyes began to well up in realization that everything she had ever known was gone and sobbed loudly. The beast just pulled her towards him as if hugging her and Kanami let him, crying loudly against him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That was their fated meeting and the beginning of an unbreakable bond.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the Acting Lieutenant of the Crafting Friars of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Lilia by Nyx.jpg|right|300x300px|Lilia pontificating (Artwork by Nyx Ashkala)]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Lilia really pretty! Funny hat! She make funny robot thing that talk! He was nice. Lilia also talk smart. Make Kanami brain hurt...but Kanami still like!&amp;quot; [[Kanami_Nanami|-Kanami Nanami]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's an intense one... Often talks less like a goldsmith and more like a soldier. I'd be wary of her, if I were you. You never know what those types are capable of.&amp;quot; - [[Gwannes Oskwell]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;She's kinda high-strung, really easy to set off. I think she ''wants'' to be annoyed.&amp;quot; - [[Edda Vincents]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
==Character==&lt;br /&gt;
===General=== &lt;br /&gt;
This young Miqo'te seems to only have one goal in life, and that is to see people happy.  Often going to great lengths to bring a smile to someone's face, Connor would even risk his own well-being for the sake of others.  This trait tends to make him fast friends, though others tend to think of him as being too naive or idealistic.  Despite his frail body type, his magical capabilities are rather high and his quick thinking has helped him on more than one occasion. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He lived most of his life in the deserts of Thanalan with his clan.  Growing up there was not easy, as his weak frame made him an easy target for bullying.  He was subjected to both physical and verbal abuse by some of the stronger men in his clan, something that would eventually attribute to his hatred of arrogance and the tribal customs.  The only thing that kept him from going mad was the occasional intervention from a kind man named Joshua Tavarin.  Joshua was an old Hyur man who would visit the clan for trading purposes.  Whenever he visited, he often stayed for a couple of days and told Connor stories of adventure and romance, of great heroes who would do whatever it took to see the people happy and safe.  He grew to respect Joshua as a father more than his actual father and Joshua even told him he would bring him with him next time he came to trade.  Connor agreed wholeheartedly because anything would be better than staying with his clan at this point.  However, that would not come to pass, as Joshua's corpse was discovered on the road several weeks later.  Devastated by his death, Connor packed what he could and left his clan, changing his name to Connor Tavarin in honor of his father-figure.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since his departure, Connor studied conjury under E-Sumi-Yan for a few years and discovered he seemed to have a talent for it.  As he neared the end of his training, he heard word of a free company known as the Harbingers of Dawn.  Interested in what it would be like to be in a free company, he sought them out and applied to join.  After passing the initial trial period, he seemed to make an impression on the crafting branch of the company to the point Saint Raisan Arcmantle appointed him the company weaver, a title he holds with pride.&lt;br /&gt;
===Appearance===&lt;br /&gt;
Being raised in the deserts of Thanalan before officially moving to Gridania, Connor has a distinctly tan skin color.  He has long, dark brown hair and his face is youthful with no blemishes aside from a scar on his right cheek, possibly gained from one of his battles against one of his clan's Nunhs.  He has odd colored eyes, his right eye dark blue and his left eye dark green.  One aspect about his body he's not proud of is how frail he looks as this has given him much trouble his entire life.  He is about six fulms (feet) tall but has a low body weight in comparison to his height.  In terms of clothing, whenever he's not wearing his Oasis Tunic or his Weaving gear he is typically seen wearing long flowing robes, usually of a black and white coloration.  He only wears the robes when his conjury is needed or if he needs to look formal.&lt;br /&gt;
===Personality===&lt;br /&gt;
Extremely nice and kind to people by default, Connor enjoys making new friends and making people happy.  With an ever-present smile, he goes about his day and enjoys every moment he's among good company.  Though plagued with some confidence issues due to his upbringing, he refuses to let that get in the way of him developing good relationships with his friends and allies.&lt;br /&gt;
==Combat==&lt;br /&gt;
===General===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tendencies==&lt;br /&gt;
===Likes===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Making others happy is his personal goal in life.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Learning new things so he can further help others.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Being among trusted companions in the comfort of the free company estate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dislikes===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Arrogance and racism&lt;br /&gt;
::* The idea of him hurting someone, even accidentally.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Seeker tribal customs, believing there to be a better way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Hobbies/Talents===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Weaving and crafting in general.  He enjoys learning what else he could create that could benefit his friends.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Adept at Conjury and has managed to learn new techniques with it by thinking outside of the box.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Is an exceptionally quick learner, being able to pick up on new disciplines relatively quickly.  This is only fueled more by his desire and enjoyment of learning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Unless something is seriously bothering him, Connor seems to have a smile on his face at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Has extremely low self-confidence when it comes to relationships, believing he is incapable of ever finding love.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Has an affinity for cute things and wouldn't be above owning chocobo or moogle dolls.  He treats his chocobo, Slowdancer, more like family than a simple means of transportation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Relationships==&lt;br /&gt;
===Family===&lt;br /&gt;
'''X'unan Nunh:''' -The Nunh that sired him.  He doesn't have much to say about his father aside from the fact that he was very neglectful of him as he was growing up, possibly due to Connor's weak body.  X'unan prided strength and made it apparent he wasn't happy with Connor's weak frame.  Aside from that, all Connor knew about his father was that he continued to sire others and eventually forgot about Connor's existence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''X'oya Dhen:''' -Connor's mother. Though kind enough while raising him, she seemed to make it a habit of reminding him that unless he finds the physical capability to best a Nunh in combat, the most he's going to do in life is support the tribe through gathering or at best, crafting, until the day he dies.  This constant reminder of how he was gave him a quiet resentment towards his mother and Seeker tribe customs as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;
===Friends===&lt;br /&gt;
'''Wyra and Torora Panipahr:''' -Though they have not spoken much as of late, the twins Wyra and Torora were the first of the Harbingers Connor ever met.  They helped convince him to join the free company and has since been grateful to them for such an opportunity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Lilia Lia:''' -Connor easily considers Lilia one of his best friends since the first day they met.  Amused by her reaction to his clothing of choice, which at the time was a mishmash of off-color clothing, he went along with her as she helped make him more suitable clothing.  This gesture of kindness as he saw it inspired him to apply for the crafting branch of the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia has since been a reliable, trustworthy friend in his endeavors and her constant positive reinforcement helped bring him out of dark times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Raisan Arcmantle:''' -The crafting Saint of the Harbingers of Dawn, Raisan was a mentor to Connor, giving him advice on crafting as a whole while Connor trained in Weaving in Ul'dah.  This advice proved invaluable and encouraged him to press on with his crafting, earning his Weaver's Guild certification in less than two months.  Even after earning the certification, he still looks up to Raisan as a mentor and periodically asks him for advice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''H'elah Sonh:''' -Connor sees H'elah as family, trying his best to help her find her confidence and passion in life.  Giving her several books from his collection, he helped her discover hobbies and the fact that she pursued them warmed Connor's heart greatly.  He will always be there when H'elah needs help with anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Wemrys Quintos:''' -Having been a part of several missions with him, Wemrys in Connor's eyes is a great fighter and trustworthy ally you can count on.  Connor respects Wemrys being in the Martial Branch since it's because of people like him that the company remains safe.  After a particularly grueling mission, Connor's respect for him only grew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Mimiru Miru:''' -The support saint for the Harbingers of Dawn.  Mimiru was the second person Connor ever spoke with in the Harbingers as his initial plan was to join the Support Branch.  Even after his decision changed to the Crafting Branch, he still talks with Mimiru on occasion and enjoys her joking, deadpan snark at the company meetings.  At one point Mimiru even helped Connor out of a dark time in his life when he witnessed a woman who was pregnant get brutally maimed and lost her children.  Since then Connor knew he could always count on Mimiru for support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''J'maaira Tuhl:''' -Despite only knowing each other for a short time, J'maaira proved to be an excellent trainer and friend when she offered to teach him how to defend himself in hand-to-hand combat.  The training helped boost Connor's confidence and he kept training on the side even after she disappeared, an event that worried Connor greatly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Alistair Phoenix:''' -Alistair is a good friend of Connor's, always being there to speak with him.  Despite not having that much skill in it yet, Alistair inspired Connor to take up arcanima, mostly because Connor wanted to learn how to summon a carbuncle as well.  Connor will almost never pass up an opportunity to have a conversation with Alistair, whether it be about the company as a whole or just friendly chatter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Jikam Constans:''' -Jikam's demeanor and friendly attitude towards him quickly made Connor consider him a friend, especially after an...interesting curse took hold of the company.  After the curse had passed, they still speak occasionally and Connor even accompanied him on a mission, a mission that only further strengthened his trust in Jikam.  He finds Jikam's random antics fun and has even considered joining him whenever he thinks of some crazy scheme.&lt;br /&gt;
===Enemies===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Rumors==&lt;br /&gt;
===Common Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Despite his protests, many people seem to believe Connor is homosexual or at the very least bisexual at first glance.  This judgement completely baffles him.&lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Moderate Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;Oi, have you heard that that Tia...what was his name, Ulk, has been going around with some fancy free company called Harbingers of Dawn?  I pity those guys for having to look after that runt.&amp;quot; -Random X' clan Miqo'te.&lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rare Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Joshua Tavarin was rumored to be a Garlean spy going under an alias.  That slightest suspicion led Connor's clan to murdering him and claim bandits took his life, not wanting any publicity being drawn towards them.  Unknown to everyone but Connor however, even if this rumor was true, Joshua's intentions were purely benevolent.&lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===PC Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;He has a heart of gold and a good head on his shoulders. People of his mindset are few and far in-between.&amp;quot; [[Alistair_Phoenix|Alistair Phoenix]]&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;Sir Connor's skill at weaving is a testament to what his kind is truly capable of when placed in a nurturing environment.  When he arrived on the Harbingers lawn he may have passed for one of Sir Worren's scarecrows, so disheveled and unkempt was his appearance.  But the Harbingers have transformed him inside and out, and he is now one of the most capable clothiers I know.  Should his services be available to you, do not pass up the opportunity.&amp;quot;  - [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the House Goldsmith of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Lilia by Nyx.jpg|right|300x300px|Lilia pontificating (Artwork by Nyx Ashkala)]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Character ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Alyeis Daimeiris''' (''Al-eese Die-mere-ess''), is an outgoing, driven Miqo’te with an elegant attire. When people first meet her they may often find her very alluring, but mistrustful. She has professionalism about her over all with the pleasant mix of a mischievous demeanor. She’s exceptionally sly, and most certainly seems to hold her own independence as a high priority. She lives on the fine line between being a caring business woman, or being selfishly, and criminally, independent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Appearance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alyeis is much curvier than the average Miqo'te. She’s built very slim, but toned, much like that of a belly dancer. She’s just above the average height of a female Miqo'te, standing at 5 fulms. Her hair is voluminous, pin straight, and is very shiny like ebony silk. It falls down to almost her butt, but she is often seen wearing it up in a classy, polished fashion. Her face is very chiseled, and it always seems like the perfect lighting is on her complexion at all times, highlighting the subtle and unusual tan she has. Her lush blush wine colored lips almost steals away the focus of her face, if it weren’t for her eyes. Her right eye is a pale ice blue and stilted like a Seeker of the Sun, while her left eye is a rich sapphire hue with a round pupil as a normal Keeper of the Moon's eye would be. When first meeting her many men (or women) have found her appearance alluring, and hard to resist. Seia (Alyeis's rarely seen split personality): While Seia looks nearly exactly like Alyeis she has a few differences. Her hair has a slight wave to it, and although it is the same length she fashions it differently, usually in pigtails. Furthermore, her hair takes on a bright blue color as Alyeis changes over to becoming Seia. This fades down gradually into a lighter white, icey like hue where Alyeis used to have the deeper black hue. Overall, rather than Alyeis's seductive elegant appearance, Seia takes on an adorable feel to her appearance, and her features make her look much like an Ice Princess. Her face seems to be a bit lighter with a milkier complexion, making her appear more innocent, and her lips are a light, sweet pink, rather than the wine hue of Alyeis's.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Behavior ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alyeis is extremely secretive with people she 1st meets, or when in public. She may have some kind of act put up at times if she feels that it fits the situation at hand, and she’s very good at it. This side of Aly is very polite, held back, and nonchalant. The real Alyeis is very very different. She’s an animal, and by that I mean in all ways. She’s mischievous, a party animal, cruel, very flirtatious, devious, and sadistic. She cares very little about anyone due to how she was brought up, unless they are one of her boy toys, someone she has hired as her own, or who she considers family. If there isn’t something for her to gain, most often she will find her way out of it. She is very sly, and manipulative, and a bit of a genius (though she won't admit it up front), and she has relied on it for her survival. She’s also very curious, and because of this she makes an excellent information seeker. She dedicates most of her spare time doing research on anything and everything she can get her hands on, and may often even be found taking notes on the people she is around like they are constant experiment subjects, benefiting her knowledge of the world. Seia (Alyeis's rarely seen split personality): This side of Alyeis is not only different in appearance, but quite different in personality as well. Seia, as she is refers herself by, is a complicated mix of preciously sweet, curious and rude woman. She's overall a very happy, giddy individual, and expresses her emotions very clearly. Seia enjoys playing games with people, and often will make a game out of hunting others down. She loves the company of others, and will not be found doing research of any kind, although she may collect things for her other dominant half. She talks in riddles often, which take place of the original Aly's metaphorical inquiries or statements. She also speaks differently than the Original Alyeis, having a slightly Limsan laden accent, and she refers to herself as &amp;quot;we&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;us&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;I&amp;quot; or “me”.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Combat ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alyeis tends to be stealthy or very aggressive in a fighting situation. She has a very unusual gift for all of the magical arts, seeming to be able to use them interchangeably. By relying on the manipulation of crystals, her favorite weapon, she is able to control her abilities with utmost accuracy. Since she was born her atherial gift had been apparent, making her valued by multiple hungry criminal organizations, craving her potential. If lead to a situation where she needs to eliminate a target she often will float people right off their feet, burn them cautiously from the inside out, or strangle them by freezing the liquid in their throat, all of course after playing games with her victims for a while depending on her intentions, never leaving the evidence behind. She may use trickery to her advantage often, and had concealed weapons on her at almost all times, many of which may even hide in plain sight. Furthermore, for a magic caster, while her melee abilities are meek, she is very acrobatic and agile; sneaking around over the years only polishing this skill. She lastly takes great pride in poison crafting, not only to sell it, but to use it as a tool. There are even rumors that she has gradually used poisons on herself to build and immunity.&lt;br /&gt;

== Relationships ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Family ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alyeis was born to a Seeker of the Sun mother and a Keeper of the Moon for a father. Upon her mother finding out that she was pregnant she was forced to leave, knowing she would have been killed by the furiously jealous Nuhn of her tribe. Over time other tribes refused to take them as part of their family, seeing her parents actions as a disgusting betrayal to their cultures. This forced her father to start to lead his family into more criminal activities. Overall the course of unfortunate events led to her parents’ ultimate death, and Alyeis being taken for the potential she possessed atherically when she was only 5 years old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Other Relationships ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;quot;This change… I know he knew it would happen. He always said I would lead one day.&amp;quot; Alyeis would have a sad and thoughtful expression, “He’ll just have to watch through Hydaelyn.”&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[D’amein Tia]]:''' Alyeis’s dead mate. Best partner in crime, teacher, and ultimately who she looks up most to in life. A lot of her reactions to things now are somehow in honor of him.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Ririn’to Talecoss]]:''' Alyeis’s second in command to the Lunar Veil. He is currently the one who understands her the most, and in turn secretly loves her dearly as his only friend. She’s very territorial of him, as he is her 1st main member in her organization.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Una Zehlin]]:''' A woman who at 1st was a large figure in the good and faithful to the law. In an atherical experiment Alyeis drew another’s existence into her. This eliminated her as a threat and temporarily turned her into an ally. Over time she disappeared, her whereabouts nowhere to be found. It is suspected she was driven mad and left to her own destruction.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Aalriya Rose]]:''' A peculiar Midlander female (originally a Keeper of the Moon) who seems to have a great fondness for Alyeis. She has shown loyal friendship and followed Alyeis in her development of the Veil. She is Alyeis’s messenger, and most loyal tavern worker.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Grey Argentum]]:''' Originally a man that Seia, Alyeis’s other half, found quite a fondness to, but in the event of his own memory loss, and change in character, their relationship continues to mold back into friendship. He has a strong loyalty to Alyeis, indebting his life to her, and working as a protector of a sort for Alyeis and the other figures of authority in the Lunar Veil.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Yew’li]]:''' Alyeis’s Eos, and her most trustworthy companion. She is mute, and only communicates in images. She is a unique and most useful companion, their relationship as odd as the fairie itself.&lt;br /&gt;
::*'''[[Zohie Jurai]]:''' A sassy, kind Keeper of the Moon, rescued by Alyeis. She may be one of the 1st Alyeis learns to love in a motherly, very platonic way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== History/Timeline ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== History/ Timeline ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Starting off, Alyeis was set to have a rough life. Her parents came from two different tribes entirely, each a different sub race as well. Both parents were forced to run away after finding out that Alyeis was to be born to keep her mother, which was a Seeker of the Sun, from being killed by the head Nuhn of her tribe. Once Alyeis was born, any other tribes refused to take her and her family in as their own, once they learned about Alyeis being a half blood, feeling that it betrayed the gods that they followed. After a while, about at the age of 2, her father began deals with pirates within Limsa, gone multiple days at a time. After a while her parents became overly involved in illegal matters, which lead to their death, leaving Alyeis an orphan at the age of 5. The same organization that killed her parents also took Alyeis in as their own, only wanting her for the potential they saw in her, thus why they murdered her parents in cold blood. After a while, Alyeis slowly began to catch onto her strangely accepting, and loving family. By the age of 7 she began plotting the death of the entire organization, finding out what they had done. Before she turned 8 she successfully took revenge, wiping out every member in the organization, except for one which escaped. As she grew up, she furthered her skills in thievery and manipulation to survive, never going to an orphan’s shelter due to her lack of trust in the world. After a while she learned that her appearance was a valuable tool, and she would use it on men (or willing women) to gain food, and/ or shelter throughout her nomadic life style. One day, when she was about 18, she picked the wrong, or in her case the right victim, a Seeker of the Sun named D’amein who had abandoned his tribe due to a hatred for his tribe’s culture. He played along with her games, thinking she was unique, and he was intrigued by her cleverness. She stayed with him for up to a week, due to his abundant amount of wealth and attention. After the week was up she ran away, once again in the night, still unaware that he knew her game all too well, only to find that he hunted her down by dawn. Once she was found, he pleads with her to stay, explaining he knew her financial state, and told her that there could be a better way of life. Alyeis eventually agreed to become his partner and travel with him to make a living. Several years past as he taught her various other skills, and tricks, showing her the ways of the black market. Working together they were the perfect pair. A romance ignited as fast as the money they made, eventually leading to Alyeis becoming pregnant at 21. With great money however, it wasn’t long till the two made a name for themselves, and started to become hated by other organizations who were involved in the black market. Within the same year they were tracked down, captured and tortured, all leading back to the very 1st organization that killed Alyeis’s parents. In desperate attempts, D’amein sacrificed himself, to ensure the escape of Alyeis and his unborn child, Alyeis realizing moments later what he had done. In her shock, her guard was let down, and she led herself into the last ambush staged for her, and her now dead mate. In her anger, and adrenaline, she survived, barely. A spell had been cast on her, and without her control, her body did what any immune system could do to survive, and the child was terminated so her body would have the strength to recover. Alyeis spent days in a horrendous mental break down, such pain filled her mind that it too began to change. She started having visions, not only of the past, but also as the future. By this, she obtained what was commonly known as the Echo, and what she sometimes refers to as the Reverse Echo. After her gifts became apparent to her, she sought to bring everyone who ruined her life to an end, and by the time the year was up she succeeded. Now left to wander the rest of her future in utmost mistrust, she continued her nomadic lifestyle with the skills D’amein had taught her, and learned the art of remaining concealed, leading to the Alyeis known today.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Recent History ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alyeis spent much time recovering and growing off the little amount of money D’amein left behind. In desperate attempts to find a way to reach the social status she had a few year back she joined the Harbingers of the Dawn, but only for a short while. Well aware they would not serve as an efficient cover up for herself she cleverly left with a group of their members who no longer wanted to be affiliated with the leaders of the Harbingers. This Free Company became known as the Grand Watch, however instead of fully joining them, she kept a safe distance. In secret fondness for its members and how they treated one another she distanced herself, not only for her own good, but for theirs. Shortly after to create an organization that was known as the Rose Syndicate, readying the arrival of a woman she foresaw changing into a criminal leader. However, the future is always changing and it moved faster than she could predict, leaving the Syndicate to fall apart. After a while Alyeis, along with a circle of trusted friends decided to leave the Syndicate to form their own Organization, The Lunar Veil, where they could live out the lifestyle they always wanted. Now, she continues to live as she did, making her living in the black market, and for the 1st time in years, has brought herself to work with others. Will her connections continue to grow? The Lunar Veil is only the beginning to a newly turned leaf. [http://lunarveilroleplay.enjin.com/aboutus http://lunarveilroleplay.enjin.com/aboutus]&lt;br /&gt;

: &lt;br /&gt;
Garnet is a small, tan woman with light blue hair that's been faded by the sun and deep green eyes. She's a bit curvy despite her height. Unknown to most, under her bangs she hides a Garlean 3rd eye though, with it hidden, most assume from her size she's a Midlander Hyur.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Biography&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Childhood&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;
Garnet was just a baby when her and her father were killed in a conflict between Garlean forces and local rebels. Her mother, a conjurer, was unable to live with the loss. So she gave her life to give Garnet back hers. Just under a year old, Garnet was taken in by her maternal uncle, Obsidian. Obby, as Garnet affectionately called him, was the captain of an air ship. Just a shipping vessel, they spent most of their time safely out of the local conflicts and in the sky. Garnet was raised by her uncle and his crew. They were all very protective of her; it was like living with an army of fathers. They always told her to stay away from men, taught her to fight and protect herself while making sure she had useful skills. She found as a young child that she enjoyed the warmth of the engine room and so she spent most of her time there. She learned out to maintain, upgrade and rework an airship and it's parts. Not only was it a great talent for her but it would come to save her in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Teenage&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;
When Garnet was 14 her uncle got his hands on a magitek bit. He wasn't sure what to do with it but it was still operational and dangerous so he dismantled it as best he could and let it sit. Unbeknownst to Obsidian, Garnet began to sneak into his work area and toy with the bit. After only a few months, Garnet had reassembled the bit into a working state but she had de-weaponized it. She had it so that the bit would follow her around. Her uncle, so impressed, let her keep it and encouraged her to play with and learn more about magitek. She could tell that her was scared by it all a little but she didn't know why until the night her uncle sent her away. Word had spread of her ingenuity and skill with re-purposing magitek and she had become a target, not just by Garlean forces but by rebels as well. To protect her from it all, Obsidian sent Garnet away to Eorzea. In a land of adventurers and refugees, he figured she could take care of herself enough to blend in. He told her before she left about her parents. It was the first time he'd ever talked about them. Obsidian told her that her father was a magitek engineer and her mother a conjurer. The two had met, fallen in love and died in conflict. He worried her talent would draw her to conflict as well and so, before she left, he had her promise to put her safety first. She promised him. Not long after Garnet left, Obsidian's ship was shot out of the sky by Garlean forces. There were no survives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

In fact, it's not even the primary way she's interested in him. She's more interested in being close to him than anything else.

: &lt;br /&gt;
Garnet is a small, tan woman with light blue hair that's been faded by the sun and deep green eyes. She's a bit curvy despite her height. Unknown to most, under her bangs she hides a Garlean 3rd eye though, with it hidden, most assume from her size she's a Midlander Hyur.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Biography&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Childhood&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;
Garnet was just a baby when her and her father were killed in a conflict between Garlean forces and local rebels. Her mother, a conjurer, was unable to live with the loss. So she gave her life to give Garnet back hers. Just under a year old, Garnet was taken in by her maternal uncle, Obsidian. Obby, as Garnet affectionately called him, was the captain of an air ship. Just a shipping vessel, they spent most of their time safely out of the local conflicts and in the sky. Garnet was raised by her uncle and his crew. They were all very protective of her; it was like living with an army of fathers. They always told her to stay away from men, taught her to fight and protect herself while making sure she had useful skills. She found as a young child that she enjoyed the warmth of the engine room and so she spent most of her time there. She learned out to maintain, upgrade and rework an airship and it's parts. Not only was it a great talent for her but it would come to save her in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Teenage&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;
When Garnet was 14 her uncle got his hands on a magitek bit. He wasn't sure what to do with it but it was still operational and dangerous so he dismantled it as best he could and let it sit. Unbeknownst to Obsidian, Garnet began to sneak into his work area and toy with the bit. After only a few months, Garnet had reassembled the bit into a working state but she had de-weaponized it. She had it so that the bit would follow her around. Her uncle, so impressed, let her keep it and encouraged her to play with and learn more about magitek. She could tell that her was scared by it all a little but she didn't know why until the night her uncle sent her away. Word had spread of her ingenuity and skill with re-purposing magitek and she had become a target, not just by Garlean forces but by rebels as well. To protect her from it all, Obsidian sent Garnet away to Eorzea. In a land of adventurers and refugees, he figured she could take care of herself enough to blend in. He told her before she left about her parents. It was the first time he'd ever talked about them. Obsidian told her that her father was a magitek engineer and her mother a conjurer. The two had met, fallen in love and died in conflict. He worried her talent would draw her to conflict as well and so, before she left, he had her promise to put her safety first. She promised him. Not long after Garnet left, Obsidian's ship was shot out of the sky by Garlean forces. There were no survives.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the House Goldsmith of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, even those close to her, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
*''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;

Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  A short time after she began visiting the estate, she was offered a membership position and she accepted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Etiquette===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inextricably linked with her concern for education is Lilia's firm belief in the value of etiquette and good manners.  As she grows close to a person, she may gently correct behaviors and habits of theirs that she deems unbecoming.  Many people see this as intrusive, as she will often speak out on the topic in the context of personal disputes that she feels could be resolved with proper courteous gestures.  For example, she may take someone aside to tell them that they owe someone else an apology, or request a private minute with them to try and resolve a misunderstanding.  This too is something she considers part of her role as teacher.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PC Rumours==&lt;br /&gt;
''Feel free to post something but please keep it IC''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I can't say I'm very close to her, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love her sass and intelligence. She's a charm to have around and seems to tell things like they are, regardless of how much undeserved respect others demand from her, and for that, I respect her.&amp;quot; -[[Sasha Rochester]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;I met her by chance in Gridania. Woe betide those who underestimate her or seek to do her harm. She has a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue - yet she readily offers her support and friendship to those who deserve it.&amp;quot; - [[Graeham Ridgefield]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the House Goldsmith of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gridania and the Harbingers===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has always been Lilia's nature to engage in dialogue with complete strangers when she feels there is an opportunity either for learning or for teaching, but rarely does it become the start of a long-term friendship.  However, while in Gridania on business for the Flames she made the acquaintance of [[Jikam Constans]] and [[Graeham Ridgefield]] at the tavern in [[Carline Canopy]], and after some socializing and lesson-giving Jikam invited Lilia to attend an open-house event of their Free Company, the Harbingers of Dawn.  Lilia decided it would be a welcome diversion from her work as well as being a good opportunity for her to learn more about Gridania and the people of the Shroud.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometime after joining the Company, Lilia resigned from the Flames.  The reasons for her resignation are not well-known, but there does not appear to have been any animosity involved.  Since resigning, she has begun dwelling in the Lavender Beds at the Harbingers' estate and working for the Harbingers full-time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===NPCs and Background Characters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Player Characters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Character-stub}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Character==&lt;br /&gt;
===General=== &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Appearance===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Graeham beach stud.jpg|thumbnail|Showing off his wares]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One might argue that the most striking of Graeham's features is his piercing icy blue eyes, complimented rather well by his sun-kissed skin and disheveled dark blonde hair. Some would describe him as classically handsome due to the lad boasting strong facial features, a clean shaven jaw and a nose that is nicely proportioned. His physique has a decent amount of muscle definition and his limbs appear to be well honed yet overall he seems to be better built for feats of agility than brute strength. More often than not he is clad in comfortable attire often associated with those hailing from La Noscea. He is fairly tall for a Midlander, though he is by no means a giant. One could tell at a glance that despite his sharp features he is not yet a fully fledged adult - a correct estimate putting him in his late teens. Some may note that he has a slightly exotic look to him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Personality===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The youth appears to be well spoken and polite, rarely allowing his emotions to get the better of him. He seems to prefer to try and find a peaceful resolution to a problem when possible, even when his life is clearly endangered. He seems to be a lot less prone to diplomacy if the lives of his allies are at risk, however. Overall he seems like the trustworthy sort though despite his willingness to aid those who require his aid he often appears reluctant to remain in any given location for any major length of time. Although somewhat guarded at first - especially regarding the subject of his family - he tends to speak passionately about his hobbies, inviting those he comes to trust to sit back and relax as he catches and cooks some fish for them. He also appears to be rather flirtatious around both men and women who pique his interest. He is, however, capable of holding his tongue if he feels such an approach would be unwise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Combat==&lt;br /&gt;
===General===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although in favour of trying to reason with his opponents in order to avoid violence, if such an approach is not an option then Graeham is known to make use of a pair of daggers to strike at his enemies with the intention of gradually wearing them down whilst he himself makes use of his agile nature. He is by no means a legendary combatant but it would not be unfair to claim that he can hold his own in a fight if provoked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tendencies==&lt;br /&gt;
===Likes===&lt;br /&gt;
::* He has a fondness for seafood, especially fish.&lt;br /&gt;
::* History fascinates him, especially if it involves ancient ruins or tales of past triumphs over vicious beasts.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Individuals with a friendly disposition and good manners seem to be something Graeham appreciates deeply.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Beaches, particularly the stretch near Costa del Sol.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Loyalty. It is a trait he deeply admires in a friend or ally.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dislikes===&lt;br /&gt;
::* Alcohol, primarily due to the negative effects it has on many people.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Dishonest, aggressive and cowardly individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Being treated like a child.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Cold weather.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Hobbies/Talents===&lt;br /&gt;
::* He's a keen fisherman and is often eager to indulge in a spot of fishing during his travels.&lt;br /&gt;
::* Graeham's physique lends itself to athletic pursuits. He's a swift and effective runner, swimmer and climber.&lt;br /&gt;
::* He seems to know his way around a pair of daggers but he seems to prefer to disarm or injure an opponent instead of killing them.&lt;br /&gt;
::* He can be fairly diplomatic when required, sometimes acting as the voice of reason to cool tensions between others.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Other===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
::* &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Relationships==&lt;br /&gt;
===Family===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graeham's lips are sealed when it comes to the subject of his family. He tends to become increasingly evasive if people try to pry into the matter. Those who earn his trust, however, may learn that he has Garlean blood within his veins.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Friends===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Common Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;He does a lot of odd jobs to fund his travels. It always seems like honest work too.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;I used to see him working as a waiter in that classy restaurant back in Limsa from time to time.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;The man isn't shy when it comes to making use of that silver tongue of his. I'm sure it gets him into trouble from time to time though...&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Moderate Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;He has a good heart but he can be pretty naive. I fear many will take advantage of that.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;I've never seen him lose his temper though push the wrong buttons and he grows cold and distant.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;He seems to avoid making use of an aetheryte whenever possible. I saw the poor lad throw up his lunch the last time he tried using one.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rare Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;Apparently there's some Garleans trying to track him down. Oddly enough they want him alive and unharmed.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;Every few months he heads out to that graveyard near Wineport to place a bouquet of flowers atop one of the graves.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;He's Garlean! Well, his mother was - his father wasn't. I don't trust him one bit - tainted blood is tainted blood.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;There's a darker, more cynical side to him beneath all his charm. Be cautious.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===PC Rumors===&lt;br /&gt;
::* &amp;quot;An enigmatic man and former friend.  I was never able to delve into his mysteries satisfactorily.  He seems pleased not to be the center of attention and is skilled at remaining unnoticed.  But do take notice, look under the surface, even if he insists that there is nothing hidden there.  Maybe you will find it.  I never have.&amp;quot; - [[Lilia Lia]]&lt;br /&gt;

==History/Timeline==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Details surrounding Graeham's early life are scarce, though it is known that he arrived in Limsa Lominsa two years after Dalamud fell. He began renting a room at one of Limsa's many inns before securing himself a small apartment near the docks. Feeling the urge to wander he travelled to Gridania and offered his aid to the Harbingers of Dawn. He served their cause for a good few months before returning to the road. More recently he has made his way to Coerthas seeking to strengthen relations between the Ishgardians and the rest of Eorzea.&lt;br /&gt;

Lilia Lia is the House Goldsmith of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is general knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;

===Player Characters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Preferences and Prejudices==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Fashion===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;

Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.  She was a natural at this, her skill at identifying exactly what it was that her students needed to hear, adapting to different learning styles, and her enthusiasm for helping share her wisdom eventually caused this to become her primary function as a Flame.  Her magical skills started to become almost a footnote to her one true vocation.&lt;br /&gt;

The more Lilia learned about weaving and goldsmithing at the guilds in Ul'dah, the more eager she grew to share her wisdom on this topic.  Illiteracy of reading and writing is one thing, but illiteracy of proper dress quite another.  When Lilia sees people dressed poorly, she often takes it upon herself to give an impromptu lesson and may even offer her services as designer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Alchemy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons not entirely clear, Lilia is highly suspicious of alchemy and alchemists.  She refuses to use potions, preferring instead to rely on &amp;quot;holistic&amp;quot; methods of healing.  When friends of hers show interest in alchemy, she is likely to express extreme worry for their well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Miqo'tes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's experience with miqo'tes has given her the opinion that they are naturally dull and primitive.  The things she has learned about the Seeker tribal customs, and in particular the stories she's heard from her friends, have exacerbated this view.  However, she does not bear ill will towards miqo'tes.  She simply sees them as being naturally limited in their intellectual capacity.  Any time she encounters an exception to this &amp;quot;rule,&amp;quot; she might go out of her way to commend them on their high level of sophistication.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia Lia is the House Goldsmith of the Harbingers of the Dawn, a free company based in Gridania.  She is also a self-described &amp;quot;teacher-in-residence,&amp;quot; a post that she does not hold officially but still proclaims with as much pride as she does her official rank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Physically speaking, she is taller-than-average for her race, a bit on the portly side but not overweight, and has a tendency to wear flattering, high-quality gowns and large wide-brimmed headwear.  She has a distinctive heart-marking on her face which, on examination, is not a tattoo but is in fact painted on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's voice is loud and clear, and while talking to a person she sustains intense eye contact, unless she is closing her eyes while talking, which she sometimes does in order to add weight to her words.  Her carriage and demeanor are overall extremely confident and self-certain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''RP note:  The information in this section is generally knowledge about Lilia which is known by her former acquaintances in the Immortal Flames, her guildmasters, and a few of her friends.  It is not unfathomable that someone might know any of these things about her from second-hand accounts.  In other words, it does not contain secret or privileged information about her.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Childhood===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia lived a rather ordinary childhood in Ul'dah, though always being a bit of an outsider among the children her age. This wasn't due to shyness, but more due to the fact that the other children found her to be bossy and unpleasant.  The result of this was that she spent a great deal of her time as a child playing alone, in the public markets and causeways, where she would spy on strange adventurers who had come from abroad and marvel at their curious clothes and treasures that they had in tow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time the merchants of the market grew accustomed to Lilia's antics and welcomed her, even helping her hide from her parents when they would inevitably come looking.  As she entered her teen years, her parents gradually relented in their attempts to constrain her and Lilia became a frequently seen figure in the market, making conversation with travelers and marveling at stories of adventure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Voyage to Limsa Lominsa===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural extension of Lilia's childhood was that she wanted to see more of the world than just Ul'dah.  By the time she was no longer a teen, and at an age when she was expected by her parents to be preparing herself for marriage, Lilia convinced her father to let her travel to Limsa Lominsa with the promise that she would study the Culinary Arts, and thereby increase her attractiveness as a wife.  Her father was pleased by this, if a little skeptical of his daughter's real intentions, but approved and helped fund her journey to the island of La Noscea.  This was the last she would see of her parents for a number of years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lilia's life in Limsa Lominsa consisted of her dabbling in whatever struck her fancy, which, incidentally, never included cooking lessons.  Her main occupation was the time she spent as a student of the Arcanist's Guild.  She had seen the glowing companions of Arcanists in Ul'dah and was gleeful at the promise of mastering such arts.  She was able to fund her ventures and fill her belly with the proceeds of work from the Adventurer's Guild.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her peaceful life in Limsa, however, was abruptly interrupted by the Calamity.  Many of her guildmates and guildmasters enlisted with the Maelstrom to help in the military effort, but Lilia was distraught and tried to find a way to return home to her family.  But travel by ship was limited, and none of the ports she visited were willing to take her as a passenger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Return to Ul'dah===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When she was able to, Lilia returned to Ul'dah to be with her family once again.  To demonstrate her self-sufficiency, she enlisted as a Private with the Immortal Flames, focusing at first on magical combat, but gradually finding other applications as a Flame such as mending clothing and carrying on administrative functions.  Her high literacy and natural gregariousness gave her more than her share of promotion from within.  Eventually she was given the rank of Sergeant, and led a few small military missions for the Flames, though most of her work remained administrative in nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While in the field, the limitations of her companions made Lilia aware of how atypical her skills and talents really were.  Literacy was rare among the Privates, and Lilia was asked to act as a tutor for many of the Flames who were being promoted but required additional literacy skills to supplement their increased ranks.
