== Nahare Mergrey (née Rahz) ==

Nahare (pronounced Nah-ha-ray) is a descendant from the Lynx tribe residing in the Sagolii desert. Her parents, X'Rahz Tia and X'Ahlia Mahsa, grew despondent with tribal life and hoisted their belongings to Limsa for a new life together. Even though they are no longer part of the tribe, they still adhered to the naming convention for their daughter. However, Nahare detests Seeker tradition, and conveniently drops the Lynx portion from her name when introducing herself. Only those close to her know where her roots lie. A few nicknames she will respond to are Nah-Nah, Naha, and Oba-san (by one person only).

Two years after their move to Limsa, Rahz and Ahlia welcomed Nahare into the family. Rowdy from the get go, she never did learn the words "slow down." At the tender age of ten was when her chaotic streak started as she had become notorious for petty thieving, excessive white lie spewing, and in general letting rules go through one ear and out the other. Her parents had high hopes that their little cub was just going through a "phase" and would settle down as she aged.

Except she didn't. The aforementioned traits expanded and turned into a duplicitous and above-the-law attitude. Full blown lies, dirty fighting, thieving on a much larger scale, kidnapping, sabotage, espionage, and even on certain accounts, murder. Nahare had grown accustomed to using any means necessary to ensure success in her goals, even if it meant hurting others in the process to get to it. A philosophy of hers is, "If it amuses me, or provides me with some type of self gain, then why not?"

Her behavior molded itself into a type of bipolar, sociopathic frame of mind. Mentally unhinged, a loose cannon. She had garnered the attentions of the seedier people that prowled along Limsa's taverns and alleyways, and seeing that the kit was willing to throw caution to the wind for the highest bidder, she found herself as a sought after asset. After a few successful jobs and a heavy coin purse, Nahare enlisted herself as a full time mercenary and such has been her way of life since.

Despite the warped path she has chosen to walk, there is still a sense of love and loyalty to those whom have earned it. Her circle of close friends and allies is small, the one concerning her family even smaller. Nahare doesn't trust easy and won't hesitate to keep someone at arm's length for an extended period of time until she's feel like they've proven themselves. All it takes is for one single person to send everything you cherish into the throes of chaos. Then again, once you've managed to breach her defenses, you'd find a woman who protects and cares for those dear to her with every fiber of her being.

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The utmost admiration, respect, and sibling love is held for this Lalafell. She has known Nazyl since her days under contract beneath a different Free Company. His warm demeanor, practical way of thinking, and tenacity in never giving up on your dreams has benefited her many a time in the past. He was also present during a very fragile point in her life, serving as a guard and ensuring her needs were being met while she recovered. All of this has lead her to view him akin to a brother and she looks up to him as such. She is rather protective of Nazyl and wouldn't even think twice of charging into battle alongside him.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Flynt Reddard]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; The Hyena</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Another man she knows from previous contract days. Her and Flynt often bicker in a rather comedic love-hate relationship. They may hiss, spit, mock, and shoot at each other on a near daily basis, but underneath it all lies a silent agreement that should one of them fall into trouble, the other would be there in an instant to help them out of it. Flynt may be a self-entitled, lecherous brat, but Nahare sees the good in him where others do not.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Vyse Gilder]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; Seiryu</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">This young man's lust and enthusiasm for life is damn near infectious. Nahare can't help but smile when she's around him and is happy to call him little brother. His innocence often offers her a different perspective on situations through a teenager's eyes, something she lacks when her mind is wracked with bitter realism. They have learned much from each other, and do their best to maintain their bond over stories and their love of fruit juice.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Shirono Usagima]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Wolf of the Rising Claws; Shadow Walker</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Nahare used to be unsettled by Shirono as she had the uncanny talent of literally appearing everywhere the Claws went, stepping straight from the shadows. However, over a period of time, she's proven herself to be a formidable healer and combatant of Doman techniques. Eccentric, methodical, and oft times quiet would be words used to describe her. Now a Claws member herself, Nahare looks upon Shirono with a smile on her lips.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Yvain Dulimont]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Gryphon of the Rising Claws; The Noble</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Temple Knight of Ishgard. Nahare was leery of Yvain at first, concerned that he would present forth a holier-than-thou attitude towards the Claws. He proved her wrong, though, showing a benevolent smile and just as benevolent mannerisms. His main proficiency lies with that of a spear, of which she's been able to witness firsthand alongside him in battle. She hopes her growing sense of respect for the Elezen will hold as she learns more about him.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Julius Bennett]]'''</font> <font style="color:#8A0808;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Shield Bearer of the Charlemagne Knights; The Beacon of Light</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Hyur with diligent work ethic and a noble mindset, he and Nahare are close friends. He possesses a gentle and diplomatic nature that has proven to be a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos she is used to. Julius was the second person to serve as a guard alongside Nazyl during her period of recovery. She trusts this man with her very life and often seeks him out when she falters putting her troubles into words. He is a stalwart man through and through, holding the frontlines with a zeal that even the most seasoned of veterans would be envious of. Their unspoken affection for each other has recently been brought to light, leaving a very "star-crossed lovers" feeling between them.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Memith Ganajai]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Leader of the Hivemind; Little Spitfire</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Such a turbulent relationship. Memith used to be a member of the Claws, during which they called each other sisters. Nahare watched the young woman like a hawk, having deemed Memith as her ward. Unfortunately, tensions arose at one point between the Claws and Hivemind, resulting in Memith's expulsion from the Free Company. It pained Nahare to look at her former sister as an assassination target, but orders were orders. Over a few moons they would butt heads, fighting against each other relentlessly. Both of them were stubborn to a fault and never backed down until forced to. Thankfully, the civil war has ended, and the two are able to call each other sisters once more as they work on repairing the bridge that was broken.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Jenivieve Ravendale]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Informant of the Rising Claws; The Enlightened</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Wielding a quick wit and dry sense of humor, Nahare likes spending time with this woman. She has a knack for information brokering, with eyes and ears in places you'd least expect. If you want to know something, Jen is your go to gal. It's this talent combined with her skills of Thaumaturgy that make her a rather valuable asset one would be stupid to let go of. It got awkward between them for a little bit, no thanks to Flynt, but they've since been able to move past what happened and are able to coexist peacefully.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Wiegraf Westmoore]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Pup of the Rising Claws; Young Blood</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The newest member of the Claws and one that is quickly proving himself to be a man of his word. Though he may seem like he's primarily driven by gil, numerous times over has he shown a caring side for those he works alongside with. Nahare respects Wiegraf and hopes to see big accomplishments come of him one day.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Vinzer Reddard]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Howler of the Rising Claws; The Blowhard</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The Claw's newest engineer and Flynt's younger brother. Nahare nearly had heart failure when she learned a second Reddard existed. One of them was enough. Still, she tested his worth in a spar. Though his boisterous words and attitude may annoy the hells out of her, he did prove himself a rather competent foe, having given her a run for her money and nearly winning. So he was good with his fists and feet, but his fluidity with the wrench has yet to be seen, leaving Nahare curious to see if he can pull his weight.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Osric Melkire]]'''</font> <font style="color:#CD950C;" size="2">✔</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; Bearer of Bad News</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Known to Nahare as "Beardy", Melkire is a long time friend of Ki's through many moons of ups and downs. A man that's straight to the point, he wasted little time in bringing to light a common enemy. Now equipped with a new ally and further knowledge, the trio descend further down the rabbit hole.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Sasazi Sazi]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Shy One</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Also known as "Little Lady". Sazi is rather bashful, often times stuttering. These two girls have protected each other through some rough times and Nahare most certainly plans on continuing to do so. She's grown rather fond Sazi, lofting a brow the minute someone or something starts to bother her.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Siha Xinkei]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Nurturing</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A most unexpected friend and ally. Siha is the mothering type, ensuring her family and friends are well fed, with peace of mind, and staying out of trouble. She's a notable healer with knowledge on various magicks, as well. Nahare was afraid Siha would reject her the minute she'd find something amiss, but instead offered a shoulder to cry on and arms to be held in. She's quickly gaining Nahare's trust after showing her that it's okay to open up to people even if there appears to be no light at the end of the tunnel or a silver lining to look for.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Delial Grimsong]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Kinslayer; The Quick Witted</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A woman particularly skilled with wordplay, Nahare quickly took a liking to her when her mate introduced them to each other. Not much is known of Delial, only that she's maintained a strong sense of will after having been made to suffer through her little brother's shenanigans. Nahare is eternally appreciative of the help she offered in ensuring Askier was healed from a particularly dangerous ailment and is happy in knowing she can call upon her in the future should she need to.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The Twelve hold a twisted sense of humor in regards to this couple. Enemies from the start, they wanted nothing more than to spill each other's blood due to them having been pawns amidst a heated civil war. What was supposed to be "harmless spying" one day turned into a violent wrestling match. Instead of panicking, Nahare goaded him further in a fit of maniacal laughter. This sparked a flame of interest as the two realized they potentially shared the same deranged tendencies. The civil war was eventually resolved and they then experienced the joy of having to "play nice". Awkward tension developed into genuine interest and genuine interest further molded itself as passionate affection. They currently hold a strong and steady relationship, though that's not to say there won't be any challenges along the way.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The eldest of the Rahz sisters and one of the few that keep Nahare in line. They have a very strained relationship with their parents, and as such, cling to each other so they do not meet the same fate. Where one sister goes, the other is sure to follow, or isn't too far behind. Nahare adores and looks up to Nataru, doing anything within her power to ensure her safety and wellbeing. Nataru is known for her mean left hook, as well as her rib crushing kicks, and earns a living as an ambitious seeker of hidden shinies.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Her dearest brother. Nahare greatly misses this man, even his long winded philosophical rants. Akama was a wise man, a fountain of endless knowledge and a pinnacle of peace. He managed to get Nahare to slow down long enough and actually think, a huge difference aside from her usual strike first and ask questions later method. He taught her a sense of balance and it's a lesson she will be eternally grateful for. Nahare often wonders where he is and if she'll ever get to see him again.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Nahare's nephew and someone she considers like he was her own son. At first she didn't believe his seemingly absurd claim of their relation to each other. After Orenji provided her with evidence too rich in history for her to dismiss, she nearly broke down in tears in a mix of bittersweet memories and ecstatic joy that another family member was within her life. Although it took her a while to completely warm up, she didn't hesitate answering his offer to join him in a band of sky pirates. To this day she is fiercely loyal and extremely caring, and even if they may not see eye to eye all the time, she will always be by his side to help oversee family and business matters.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Askier and Nahare's son, though her step-son. Mikh'a works around the Dauntless as one of their healers and tinkerers of all things technology. He can be skittish in nature and is frail of body, but his sharp mind and big heart certainly gets his point across when it needs to be made. At first she thought he hated her, though after both of them worked through some miscommunication, she was relieved and ecstatic to find out he actually loves her and looks upon her as family. Nahare has made a silent promise to guard Mikh'a's life like she does the rest of her family's, her mind set on attempting to show him that she can be a good mother.</div>

He effectively crawled into her mind and wove a dark web, leaving behind deeply rooted psychological impacts still felt to this day. Qubh'li didn't truly love her, he loved Nahare's aggression and twisted mind. He played her like a marionette doll, effortlessly plucking at her strings as he attempted to shape her into a likeness of his image. Some of his last words to her before his disappearance reverberate through her ears like a broken record. "You're /my/ monster, darling. And we'll burn in the Seven Hells together one day." Despite shattering her heart and mind, she laments his presence, and maintains a soft spot for him in her heart.</div>

Though she ignored the question, her reply was loud and clear when she used his wish for a spar against him to steal an item needed for a job. He constantly reminds her of "the debt" she has to pay.

== Nahare Mergrey (née Rahz) ==

Nahare (pronounced Nah-ha-ray) is a descendant from the Lynx tribe residing in the Sagolii desert. Her parents, X'Rahz Tia and X'Ahlia Mahsa, grew despondent with tribal life and hoisted their belongings to Limsa for a new life together. Even though they are no longer part of the tribe, they still adhered to the naming convention for their daughter. However, Nahare detests Seeker tradition, and conveniently drops the Lynx portion from her name when introducing herself. Only those close to her know where her roots lie. A few nicknames she will respond to are Nah-Nah, Naha, and Oba-san (by one person only).

Two years after their move to Limsa, Rahz and Ahlia welcomed Nahare into the family. Rowdy from the get go, she never did learn the words "slow down." At the tender age of ten was when her chaotic streak started as she had become notorious for petty thieving, excessive white lie spewing, and in general letting rules go through one ear and out the other. Her parents had high hopes that their little cub was just going through a "phase" and would settle down as she aged.

Except she didn't. The aforementioned traits expanded and turned into a duplicitous and above-the-law attitude. Full blown lies, dirty fighting, thieving on a much larger scale, kidnapping, sabotage, espionage, and even on certain accounts, murder. Nahare had grown accustomed to using any means necessary to ensure success in her goals, even if it meant hurting others in the process to get to it. A philosophy of hers is, "If it amuses me, or provides me with some type of self gain, then why not?"

Her behavior molded itself into a type of bipolar, sociopathic frame of mind. Mentally unhinged, a loose cannon. She had garnered the attentions of the seedier people that prowled along Limsa's taverns and alleyways, and seeing that the kit was willing to throw caution to the wind for the highest bidder, she found herself as a sought after asset. After a few successful jobs and a heavy coin purse, Nahare enlisted herself as a full time mercenary and such has been her way of life since.

Despite the warped path she has chosen to walk, there is still a sense of love and loyalty to those whom have earned it. Her circle of close friends and allies is small, the one concerning her family even smaller. Nahare doesn't trust easy and won't hesitate to keep someone at arm's length for an extended period of time until she's feel like they've proven themselves. All it takes is for one single person to send everything you cherish into the throes of chaos. Then again, once you've managed to breach her defenses, you'd find a woman who protects and cares for those dear to her with every fiber of her being.

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Nazyl Tharazyl]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; The Onion</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The utmost admiration, respect, and sibling love is held for this Lalafell. She has known Nazyl since her days under contract beneath a different Free Company. His warm demeanor, practical way of thinking, and tenacity in never giving up on your dreams has benefited her many a time in the past. He was also present during a very fragile point in her life, serving as a guard and ensuring her needs were being met while she recovered. All of this has lead her to view him akin to a brother and she looks up to him as such. She is rather protective of Nazyl and wouldn't even think twice of charging into battle alongside him.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Flynt Reddard]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; The Hyena</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Another man she knows from previous contract days. Her and Flynt often bicker in a rather comedic love-hate relationship. They may hiss, spit, mock, and shoot at each other on a near daily basis, but underneath it all lies a silent agreement that should one of them fall into trouble, the other would be there in an instant to help them out of it. Flynt may be a self-entitled, lecherous brat, but Nahare sees the good in him where others do not.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Vyse Gilder]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; Seiryu</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">This young man's lust and enthusiasm for life is damn near infectious. Nahare can't help but smile when she's around him and is happy to call him little brother. His innocence often offers her a different perspective on situations through a teenager's eyes, something she lacks when her mind is wracked with bitter realism. They have learned much from each other, and do their best to maintain their bond over stories and their love of fruit juice.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Shirono Usagima]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Wolf of the Rising Claws; Shadow Walker</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Nahare used to be unsettled by Shirono as she had the uncanny talent of literally appearing everywhere the Claws went, stepping straight from the shadows. However, over a period of time, she's proven herself to be a formidable healer and combatant of Doman techniques. Eccentric, methodical, and oft times quiet would be words used to describe her. Now a Claws member herself, Nahare looks upon Shirono with a smile on her lips.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Yvain Dulimont]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Gryphon of the Rising Claws; The Noble</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Temple Knight of Ishgard. Nahare was leery of Yvain at first, concerned that he would present forth a holier-than-thou attitude towards the Claws. He proved her wrong, though, showing a benevolent smile and just as benevolent mannerisms. His main proficiency lies with that of a spear, of which she's been able to witness firsthand alongside him in battle. She hopes her growing sense of respect for the Elezen will hold as she learns more about him.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Julius Bennett]]'''</font> <font style="color:#8A0808;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Shield Bearer of the Charlemagne Knights; The Beacon of Light</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Hyur with diligent work ethic and a noble mindset, he and Nahare are close friends. He possesses a gentle and diplomatic nature that has proven to be a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos she is used to. Julius was the second person to serve as a guard alongside Nazyl during her period of recovery. She trusts this man with her very life and often seeks him out when she falters putting her troubles into words. He is a stalwart man through and through, holding the frontlines with a zeal that even the most seasoned of veterans would be envious of. Their unspoken affection for each other has recently been brought to light, leaving a very "star-crossed lovers" feeling between them.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Memith Ganajai]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Leader of the Hivemind; Little Spitfire</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Such a turbulent relationship. Memith used to be a member of the Claws, during which they called each other sisters. Nahare watched the young woman like a hawk, having deemed Memith as her ward. Unfortunately, tensions arose at one point between the Claws and Hivemind, resulting in Memith's expulsion from the Free Company. It pained Nahare to look at her former sister as an assassination target, but orders were orders. Over a few moons they would butt heads, fighting against each other relentlessly. Both of them were stubborn to a fault and never backed down until forced to. Thankfully, the civil war has ended, and the two are able to call each other sisters once more as they work on repairing the bridge that was broken.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Jenivieve Ravendale]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Informant of the Rising Claws; The Enlightened</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Wielding a quick wit and dry sense of humor, Nahare likes spending time with this woman. She has a knack for information brokering, with eyes and ears in places you'd least expect. If you want to know something, Jen is your go to gal. It's this talent combined with her skills of Thaumaturgy that make her a rather valuable asset one would be stupid to let go of. It got awkward between them for a little bit, no thanks to Flynt, but they've since been able to move past what happened and are able to coexist peacefully.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Wiegraf Westmoore]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Pup of the Rising Claws; Young Blood</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The newest member of the Claws and one that is quickly proving himself to be a man of his word. Though he may seem like he's primarily driven by gil, numerous times over has he shown a caring side for those he works alongside with. Nahare respects Wiegraf and hopes to see big accomplishments come of him one day.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Vinzer Reddard]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Howler of the Rising Claws; The Blowhard</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The Claw's newest engineer and Flynt's younger brother. Nahare nearly had heart failure when she learned a second Reddard existed. One of them was enough. Still, she tested his worth in a spar. Though his boisterous words and attitude may annoy the hells out of her, he did prove himself a rather competent foe, having given her a run for her money and nearly winning. So he was good with his fists and feet, but his fluidity with the wrench has yet to be seen, leaving Nahare curious to see if he can pull his weight.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Osric Melkire]]'''</font> <font style="color:#CD950C;" size="2">✔</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; Bearer of Bad News</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Known to Nahare as "Beardy", Melkire is a long time friend of Ki's through many moons of ups and downs. A man that's straight to the point, he wasted little time in bringing to light a common enemy. Now equipped with a new ally and further knowledge, the trio descend further down the rabbit hole.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Sasazi Sazi]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Shy One</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Also known as "Little Lady". Sazi is rather bashful, often times stuttering. These two girls have protected each other through some rough times and Nahare most certainly plans on continuing to do so. She's grown rather fond Sazi, lofting a brow the minute someone or something starts to bother her.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Siha Xinkei]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Nurturing</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A most unexpected friend and ally. Siha is the mothering type, ensuring her family and friends are well fed, with peace of mind, and staying out of trouble. She's a notable healer with knowledge on various magicks, as well. Nahare was afraid Siha would reject her the minute she'd find something amiss, but instead offered a shoulder to cry on and arms to be held in. She's quickly gaining Nahare's trust after showing her that it's okay to open up to people even if there appears to be no light at the end of the tunnel or a silver lining to look for.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Delial Grimsong]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Kinslayer; The Quick Witted</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A woman particularly skilled with wordplay, Nahare quickly took a liking to her when her mate introduced them to each other. Not much is known of Delial, only that she's maintained a strong sense of will after having been made to suffer through her little brother's shenanigans. Nahare is eternally appreciative of the help she offered in ensuring Askier was healed from a particularly dangerous ailment and is happy in knowing she can call upon her in the future should she need to.</div>

Enemies from the start, they wanted nothing more than to spill each other's blood due to them having been pawns amidst a heated civil war. What was supposed to be "harmless spying" one day turned into a violent wrestling match. Instead of panicking, Nahare goaded him further in a fit of maniacal laughter. This sparked a flame of interest as the two realized they potentially shared the same deranged tendencies. The civil war was eventually resolved and they then experienced the joy of having to "play nice". Awkward tension developed into genuine interest and genuine interest further molded itself as passionate affection. They currently hold a strong and steady relationship, though that's not to say there won't be any challenges along the way.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The eldest of the Rahz sisters and one of the few that keep Nahare in line. They have a very strained relationship with their parents, and as such, cling to each other so they do not meet the same fate. Where one sister goes, the other is sure to follow, or isn't too far behind. Nahare adores and looks up to Nataru, doing anything within her power to ensure her safety and wellbeing. Nataru is known for her mean left hook, as well as her rib crushing kicks, and earns a living as an ambitious seeker of hidden shinies.</div>

Akama was a wise man, a fountain of endless knowledge and a pinnacle of peace. He managed to get Nahare to slow down long enough and actually think, a huge difference aside from her usual strike first and ask questions later method.

After Orenji provided her with evidence too rich in history for her to dismiss, she nearly broke down in tears in a mix of bittersweet memories and ecstatic joy that another family member was within her life. Although it took her a while to completely warm up, she didn't hesitate answering his offer to join him in a band of sky pirates. To this day she is fiercely loyal and extremely caring, and even if they may not see eye to eye all the time, she will always be by his side to help oversee family and business matters.</div>

He can be skittish in nature and is frail of body, but his sharp mind and big heart certainly gets his point across when it needs to be made. At first she thought he hated her, though after both of them worked through some miscommunication, she was relieved and ecstatic to find out he actually loves her and looks upon her as family. Nahare has made a silent promise to guard Mikh'a's life like she does the rest of her family's, her mind set on attempting to show him that she can be a good mother.</div>

He effectively crawled into her mind and wove a dark web, leaving behind deeply rooted psychological impacts still felt to this day. Qubh'li didn't truly love her, he loved Nahare's aggression and twisted mind. He played her like a marionette doll, effortlessly plucking at her strings as he attempted to shape her into a likeness of his image. Some of his last words to her before his disappearance reverberate through her ears like a broken record. "You're /my/ monster, darling. And we'll burn in the Seven Hells together one day." Despite shattering her heart and mind, she laments his presence, and maintains a soft spot for him in her heart.</div>

== Nahare Mergrey (née Rahz) ==

Nahare (pronounced Nah-ha-ray) is a descendant from the Lynx tribe residing in the Sagolii desert. Her parents, X'Rahz Tia and X'Ahlia Mahsa, grew despondent with tribal life and hoisted their belongings to Limsa for a new life together. Even though they are no longer part of the tribe, they still adhered to the naming convention for their daughter. However, Nahare detests Seeker tradition, and conveniently drops the Lynx portion from her name when introducing herself. Only those close to her know where her roots lie. A few nicknames she will respond to are Nah-Nah, Naha, and Oba-san (by one person only).

Two years after their move to Limsa, Rahz and Ahlia welcomed Nahare into the family. Rowdy from the get go, she never did learn the words "slow down." At the tender age of ten was when her chaotic streak started as she had become notorious for petty thieving, excessive white lie spewing, and in general letting rules go through one ear and out the other. Her parents had high hopes that their little cub was just going through a "phase" and would settle down as she aged.

Except she didn't. The aforementioned traits expanded and turned into a duplicitous and above-the-law attitude. Full blown lies, dirty fighting, thieving on a much larger scale, kidnapping, sabotage, espionage, and even on certain accounts, murder. Nahare had grown accustomed to using any means necessary to ensure success in her goals, even if it meant hurting others in the process to get to it. A philosophy of hers is, "If it amuses me, or provides me with some type of self gain, then why not?"

Her behavior molded itself into a type of bipolar, sociopathic frame of mind. Mentally unhinged, a loose cannon. She had garnered the attentions of the seedier people that prowled along Limsa's taverns and alleyways, and seeing that the kit was willing to throw caution to the wind for the highest bidder, she found herself as a sought after asset. After a few successful jobs and a heavy coin purse, Nahare enlisted herself as a full time mercenary and such has been her way of life since.

Despite the warped path she has chosen to walk, there is still a sense of love and loyalty to those whom have earned it. Her circle of close friends and allies is small, the one concerning her family even smaller. Nahare doesn't trust easy and won't hesitate to keep someone at arm's length for an extended period of time until she's feel like they've proven themselves. All it takes is for one single person to send everything you cherish into the throes of chaos. Then again, once you've managed to breach her defenses, you'd find a woman who protects and cares for those dear to her with every fiber of her being.

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The utmost admiration, respect, and sibling love is held for this Lalafell. She has known Nazyl since her days under contract beneath a different Free Company. His warm demeanor, practical way of thinking, and tenacity in never giving up on your dreams has benefited her many a time in the past. He was also present during a very fragile point in her life, serving as a guard and ensuring her needs were being met while she recovered. All of this has lead her to view him akin to a brother and she looks up to him as such. She is rather protective of Nazyl and wouldn't even think twice of charging into battle alongside him.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Flynt Reddard]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; The Hyena</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Another man she knows from previous contract days. Her and Flynt often bicker in a rather comedic love-hate relationship. They may hiss, spit, mock, and shoot at each other on a near daily basis, but underneath it all lies a silent agreement that should one of them fall into trouble, the other would be there in an instant to help them out of it. Flynt may be a self-entitled, lecherous brat, but Nahare sees the good in him where others do not.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Vyse Gilder]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Master of the Rising Claws; Seiryu</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">This young man's lust and enthusiasm for life is damn near infectious. Nahare can't help but smile when she's around him and is happy to call him little brother. His innocence often offers her a different perspective on situations through a teenager's eyes, something she lacks when her mind is wracked with bitter realism. They have learned much from each other, and do their best to maintain their bond over stories and their love of fruit juice.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Shirono Usagima]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Wolf of the Rising Claws; Shadow Walker</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Nahare used to be unsettled by Shirono as she had the uncanny talent of literally appearing everywhere the Claws went, stepping straight from the shadows. However, over a period of time, she's proven herself to be a formidable healer and combatant of Doman techniques. Eccentric, methodical, and oft times quiet would be words used to describe her. Now a Claws member herself, Nahare looks upon Shirono with a smile on her lips.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Yvain Dulimont]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sworn Gryphon of the Rising Claws; The Noble</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Temple Knight of Ishgard. Nahare was leery of Yvain at first, concerned that he would present forth a holier-than-thou attitude towards the Claws. He proved her wrong, though, showing a benevolent smile and just as benevolent mannerisms. His main proficiency lies with that of a spear, of which she's been able to witness firsthand alongside him in battle. She hopes her growing sense of respect for the Elezen will hold as she learns more about him.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A Hyur with diligent work ethic and a noble mindset, he and Nahare are close friends. He possesses a gentle and diplomatic nature that has proven to be a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos she is used to. Julius was the second person to serve as a guard alongside Nazyl during her period of recovery. She trusts this man with her very life and often seeks him out when she falters putting her troubles into words. He is a stalwart man through and through, holding the frontlines with a zeal that even the most seasoned of veterans would be envious of. Their unspoken affection for each other has recently been brought to light, leaving a very "star-crossed lovers" feeling between them.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Memith Ganajai]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Leader of the Hivemind; Little Spitfire</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Such a turbulent relationship. Memith used to be a member of the Claws, during which they called each other sisters. Nahare watched the young woman like a hawk, having deemed Memith as her ward. Unfortunately, tensions arose at one point between the Claws and Hivemind, resulting in Memith's expulsion from the Free Company. It pained Nahare to look at her former sister as an assassination target, but orders were orders. Over a few moons they would butt heads, fighting against each other relentlessly. Both of them were stubborn to a fault and never backed down until forced to. Thankfully, the civil war has ended, and the two are able to call each other sisters once more as they work on repairing the bridge that was broken.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Wielding a quick wit and dry sense of humor, Nahare likes spending time with this woman. She has a knack for information brokering, with eyes and ears in places you'd least expect. If you want to know something, Jen is your go to gal. It's this talent combined with her skills of Thaumaturgy that make her a rather valuable asset one would be stupid to let go of. It got awkward between them for a little bit, no thanks to Flynt, but they've since been able to move past what happened and are able to coexist peacefully.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The newest member of the Claws and one that is quickly proving himself to be a man of his word. Though he may seem like he's primarily driven by gil, numerous times over has he shown a caring side for those he works alongside with. Nahare respects Wiegraf and hopes to see big accomplishments come of him one day.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The Claw's newest engineer and Flynt's younger brother. Nahare nearly had heart failure when she learned a second Reddard existed. One of them was enough. Still, she tested his worth in a spar. Though his boisterous words and attitude may annoy the hells out of her, he did prove himself a rather competent foe, having given her a run for her money and nearly winning. So he was good with his fists and feet, but his fluidity with the wrench has yet to be seen, leaving Nahare curious to see if he can pull his weight.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Osric Melkire]]'''</font> <font style="color:#CD950C;" size="2">✔</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; Bearer of Bad News</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Known to Nahare as "Beardy", Melkire is a long time friend of Ki's through many moons of ups and downs. A man that's straight to the point, he wasted little time in bringing to light a common enemy. Now equipped with a new ally and further knowledge, the trio descend further down the rabbit hole.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Sasazi Sazi]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Shy One</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Also known as "Little Lady". Sazi is rather bashful, often times stuttering. These two girls have protected each other through some rough times and Nahare most certainly plans on continuing to do so. She's grown rather fond Sazi, lofting a brow the minute someone or something starts to bother her.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Siha Xinkei]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Nurturing</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A most unexpected friend and ally. Siha is the mothering type, ensuring her family and friends are well fed, with peace of mind, and staying out of trouble. She's a notable healer with knowledge on various magicks, as well. Nahare was afraid Siha would reject her the minute she'd find something amiss, but instead offered a shoulder to cry on and arms to be held in. She's quickly gaining Nahare's trust after showing her that it's okay to open up to people even if there appears to be no light at the end of the tunnel or a silver lining to look for.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Delial Grimsong]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Kinslayer; The Quick Witted</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A woman particularly skilled with wordplay, Nahare quickly took a liking to her when her mate introduced them to each other. Not much is known of Delial, only that she's maintained a strong sense of will after having been made to suffer through her little brother's shenanigans. Nahare is eternally appreciative of the help she offered in ensuring Askier was healed from a particularly dangerous ailment and is happy in knowing she can call upon her in the future should she need to.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The Twelve hold a twisted sense of humor in regards to this couple. Enemies from the start, they wanted nothing more than to spill each other's blood due to them having been pawns amidst a heated civil war. What was supposed to be "harmless spying" one day turned into a violent wrestling match. Instead of panicking, Nahare goaded him further in a fit of maniacal laughter. This sparked a flame of interest as the two realized they potentially shared the same deranged tendencies. The civil war was eventually resolved and they then experienced the joy of having to "play nice". Awkward tension developed into genuine interest and genuine interest further molded itself as passionate affection. They currently hold a strong and steady relationship, though that's not to say there won't be any challenges along the way.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Nataru Rahz]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Treasure Hunter; The Ambitious</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">The eldest of the Rahz sisters and one of the few that keep Nahare in line. They have a very strained relationship with their parents, and as such, cling to each other so they do not meet the same fate. Where one sister goes, the other is sure to follow, or isn't too far behind. Nahare adores and looks up to Nataru, doing anything within her power to ensure her safety and wellbeing. Nataru is known for her mean left hook, as well as her rib crushing kicks, and earns a living as an ambitious seeker of hidden shinies.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Akama Kharn]]'''</font> <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Red Shadow of the Twin Serpents; The Force of Guidance</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Her dearest brother. Nahare greatly misses this man, even his long winded philosophical rants. Akama was a wise man, a fountain of endless knowledge and a pinnacle of peace. He managed to get Nahare to slow down long enough and actually think, a huge difference aside from her usual strike first and ask questions later method. He taught her a sense of balance and it's a lesson she will be eternally grateful for. Nahare often wonders where he is and if she'll ever get to see him again.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Orenji Kharn]]'''</font> <font style="color:#CD950C;" size="2">✔</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Sky Captain of the Rising Claws; Oi-San</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Nahare's nephew and someone she considers like he was her own son. At first she didn't believe his seemingly absurd claim of their relation to each other. After Orenji provided her with evidence too rich in history for her to dismiss, she nearly broke down in tears in a mix of bittersweet memories and ecstatic joy that another family member was within her life. Although it took her a while to completely warm up, she didn't hesitate answering his offer to join him in a band of sky pirates. To this day she is fiercely loyal and extremely caring, and even if they may not see eye to eye all the time, she will always be by his side to help oversee family and business matters.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Mikh'a Korofi]]'''</font> <font style="color:#CD950C;" size="2">✔</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Dauntless; The Voice of Reason</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Askier and Nahare's son, though her step-son. Mikh'a works around the Dauntless as one of their healers and tinkerers of all things technology. He can be skittish in nature and is frail of body, but his sharp mind and big heart certainly gets his point across when it needs to be made. At first she thought he hated her, though after both of them worked through some miscommunication, she was relieved and ecstatic to find out he actually loves her and looks upon her as family. Nahare has made a silent promise to guard Mikh'a's life like she does the rest of her family's, her mind set on attempting to show him that she can be a good mother.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Qubh'li Kharn]]'''</font> <font style="color:#8A0808;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">≈</font> - '''<font style="color:#000000;" size="2">Crimson Devil of the Twin Serpents; Master of Honeyed Words</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Former mate. Their relationship was... interesting, to say the least. He effectively crawled into her mind and wove a dark web, leaving behind deeply rooted psychological impacts still felt to this day. Qubh'li didn't truly love her, he loved Nahare's aggression and twisted mind. He played her like a marionette doll, effortlessly plucking at her strings as he attempted to shape her into a likeness of his image. Some of his last words to her before his disappearance reverberate through her ears like a broken record. "You're /my/ monster, darling. And we'll burn in the Seven Hells together one day." Despite shattering her heart and mind, she laments his presence, and maintains a soft spot for him in her heart.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Jin'li Epinoch]]'''</font> <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♦</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Puppet Master; The Damned</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Insufferable. Little. Shite. She loathes to think of him as her brother-in-law. This man has crossed one line too many, so much so to the point that Nahare no longer bothers with self restraint and will attack as soon as the opportunity presents itself. His death will be her sick pleasure.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Two Xaela Au Ra that have contracted her mate for a very particular mercenary job. Nahare doesn't trust them as far as she can throw them (which isn't far at all). She's reluctantly agreed to help, if only to get the job done faster so they no longer have to be in their presence.</div>

: <div style="font-size:13px; ">An associate of Ki's. Nahare does not like this mysterious Miqo'te. At all. She's only met him once, but it was enough to imprint a sense of dread within her. The less she sees of him, the better, but deep down Nahare can't help but feel that may be wishful thinking.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[N'thala Mystholm]]'''</font> <font style="color:#5F5F5F;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Head Elder of the Orochi Clan; The Serpent</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A threat to Sayuri no longer, she now hunts this man for a different reason, that being to pit herself against him in contest of battle prowess. His smug attitude both infuriates and intrigues her.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Mayu Cloudwalker]]'''</font> <font style="color:#5F5F5F;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Gilded Rose; Weaver of Spells</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">A soft spoken, and kind hearted, Raen Au Ri. Nahare had the pleasure of competing against her in a fighting tournament. Mayu made short work of their spar, dextrous fingers landing swift incantations with deadly precision. Since then, Nahare has made it a point to talk to the young woman whenever she sees her, finding their association most welcome and mind opening at the same time.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Blazerro Draken]]'''</font> <font style="color:#5F5F5F;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Ward of the Gilded Rose; The Peacekeeper</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">One who cares deeply for his friends, Blaze has helped Nahare and her family a few times when it boiled down to self defense and medical attention. Though she doesn't see him often, Nahare enjoys their conversations and appreciates his sunny disposition. Along with healing, he's also a remarkable lancer, having shown Nahare and the contestants of Grindstone a thing or two.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[Togy Brandmakt]]'''</font> <font style="color:#5F5F5F;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Leader of the Masks; The Peacock</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">Best described as an enigma, Togy attempted to recruit Nahare within his fold of cloak and dagger assassins. Though she ignored the question, her reply was loud and clear when she used his wish for a spar against him to steal an item needed for a job. He constantly reminds her of "the debt" she has to pay. She laughs it off, equating Togy to a bird trying to dazzle her with his feathers, though she thinks him full of shite in the process.</div>

: <div style=""><font style="color:#000000;" size="2">'''[[R'elend Tia]]'''</font> <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> - '''<font style="color:#fffff;" size="2">Brass Blade; Uncouth Degenerate</font>'''</div>
: <div style="font-size:13px; ">There is no love lost between R'elend and Nahare. She puts forth little effort in covering up her disdain for this pitiful excuse for a Miqo'te and most certainly doesn't regret shooting at him. His comments laced with vitriol and salaciousness have left a less than stellar impression upon her.</div>
