== Character ==
{{ItsuHeader1
|sectiontitle = "Dear _____, I've met you once before..."}}
===First Impressions===
:White paint made of a hunted kedtrap and powder. Turn to her left, and you will see that she has cut a portion of her hair- her destiny. Her face is softened with youth, searching seen in her hazel eyes. Her voice is soft, as if mixing itself into the wind. 
:You hear it. She is alone.

===Appearance===
:Standing at 5"3, the Hyuran woman stands tall in open spaces. White paint, made of Kedtrap serum mixed with powder, marks her face and she wears it with pride, a lasting memory of her home colony. Her softened chocolate eyes are filled with resolve as her fair skin glows lightly beneath the moonlight. Her lips are a light peach, soft with a rather light gloss.
:Her long raven hair falls to one side, cut on the other. With resolve, Itsu had cut her hair following a failed attempt to kill who is now her chocobo, Qin'jirah, during their first encounter as per required by her [[Itsu Neir#In'uljah|In'uljah]] trial. As a sign of her bond with her bird, on her head she often wears a chocobo feather: the fallen feather from her bird's first molting.

===Personality===
:As Itsu was raised in what is now known as The Burning Wall, the girl knows very little about city life, hence she often calls people "city people." Perhaps her upbringing in Gridania was a better environment; she is very attuned to wind aether, therefore will spend as much time as she can outdoors. She gets rather unsettled indoors, especially rooms with limited space and/or without windows. "I cannot feel the wind here" is not an uncommon utterance from her mouth. She feels most at ease in wide, open outdoor spaces such as The Black Shroud. 

:The girl is also rather shy, quiet at first. Around people she does not know, she prefers to speak very little. Much like a wallflower, she would much rather observe than speak. However, take a chance to approach her and she will be very interested in those she converses with. Itsu will speak primarily when spoken to, however as she begins to ease herself into circumstances, she will talk more than one would think. Normally Itsu would enjoy speaking about her home, Darjin, however given her missing home colony, she has spoken very little about it as of late. 

:Solace is found in caring for others. Itsu will always be vocal about the well-being of others, especially her wife, Yumi Hikaru, who is victim to the girl's constant nagging. Itsu is very, ''very,'' '''''very''''' vocal about Yumi's safety. If you ask her about the time she fell down a mine shaft literally seconds after telling Yumi to be careful you will probably evoke an extremely rare, dark piercing glare from the gentle girl. Her wife is no exception to this. 
:The Hyuran girl will also care for others, whether she shows it or not. This is especially for those whom have earned her wife's trust, who then receive a lesser barrage of "Please be careful" or "You don't make healing very easy, do you?". It is also known that Itsu will be very vocal and defensive if she notices Yumi is upset, quickly distrusting whoever angers/provokes her wife.

==== Wind ====
: For starters, Itsu has a rather high aetherical sensitivity, having trained and lived in Gridania. She has been recognized as a Conjurer who is a Hearer of the elementals of the Twelveswood. While she cannot hear the will of the elementals outside of The Black Shroud, she still tries to listen to the "feelings" of the elements around her. In particular, she is especially fond of observing wind patterns, shown in her preference for wide, open spaces. The girl will attempt to read feelings (ex. harsh, distressed winds as "unhappy") of the wind around her.

===Triggers===
:''Brayflox's Longstop'' - The run down houses of the Longstop materializes Itsu's very fear: the possibility that her entire society has been slaughtered. As the huts are similar to the structures used in Darjin pre-Calamity, Itsu finds the place unnervingly similar to her now-lost home. While she has a quiet personality, she will begin to panic at the thought of her village destroyed in a similar fashion to the Longstop. It is noted during her first meeting with Xai Hikaru that if provoked enough, she will let her repressed emotions leak through, invoking sadistic tendencies.

===Lover===
:'''[[Yumi Hikaru]]:''' Her significant other. Though unsure why, Itsu feels a strange familiarity with her.

===Family===
:'''Xa’in Neir:''' Missing mother 
:'''Kibotosek Neir:''' Missing father 
:'''Jikun Neir:''' Brother (currently on In'uljah) 
:'''Chocobo:''' Qin'jirah (Piidii)

===Friends===
:'''[[Iris Blanchimont]]:''' Free Company colleague. Iris had confided her trust in Itsu and Yumi. To reciprocate this trust, Itsu has sworn to protect her in return.

===Acquaintances===
:'''[[Taji Tribal]]:''' Formally met at Free Company post-Void Ark. She currently knows her as the Mi'qote who danced so hard she fell through the Mist docks.
: Shou Han: Met at Arche Koeln before departing, doesn't know her quite well yet.

===Enemies===
:'''Xai Hikaru:''' Met at Brayflox's Longstop. Yumi's Brother. Normally Itsu would think higher of him simply because he is her wife's brother, however tensions and arguments from their last encounter have left a sour taste in her mouth.
:'''Zinot Risus:''' Met at Void Ark, formally acquainted at Free Company. First impressions were terrible as he provoked Yumi's anger, and she still holds a partial grudge due to their first meeting. This distaste for him intensified following their adventure to The Wanderer's Palace.

==History==
{{ItsuHeader1
|sectiontitle = "There once was a place I used to know..."}}
=== Darjin ===
:Darjin. A once small colony located in what is now called The Burning Wall. Those in poverty and the working class determined to escape the social confines of Uldah learned the ways of survival. The elders sought to keep its generations in secret, spared the harsh ways of the Thanalan rich and, even more, the dying. Stolen food and stocked belongings lasted the community for a year, a time that saw much turmoil and unrest among the group. However, the late Pipili Pilu took upon herself leadership within the colony and established the colony's laws with a band of consultants chosen from both homeless and working class. As a precaution for future survival, the Depakka and In'uljah trials were introduced for children born into the colony. 
:Nothing is known of what happened to the colony following The Calamity, however only remnants and painful memories are left behind. Now littered with pieces of Dalamud, what was once Darjin is now infested with Mirrorknights. 

==== Depakka ====
:The ''Depakka'' is the Darjin children's first hunt at the age of 6. The duration of a Depakka lasts 24 hours. Each child hunts a monster in Eastern Thanalan while under the supervision of their assigned hunting instructor, usually a parent or a person who has returned from their ''In'uljah'' without a chocobo foot. Females hunt one month before the males as they begin their hunting training earlier. After a successful hunt, candidates and their supervisors return to the colony with a bottle of blood or serum. After both females and males have hunted, they are all marked at the Blood Marking Ceremony, in which children's faces are painted with a mixture of powder and the collected blood by their instructors. The adults pick the colour of the markings, each colour marking a blessing or fortune that they have for their student. 
:Those who had unable to complete their hunt are abandoned in the wilderness.

==== In'uljah ====
:The ''In'uljah'' is a coming of age ceremony set in place by the late Pipilu Pilu and her consultants shortly after the establishment of Darjin. At the young age of 12, children are exiled from the colony, required to survive in the wilderness on their own. They are required to bring treasures from the world back to the colony, artifacts to provide education for those preparing for the ''Depakka'' hunt. One of these required treasures is a chocobo foot, which will then be hung above the family's home to indicate to the rest of the colony that a son/daughter who is ready to be wed has returned safely from their In'uljah trial. Common practice is one who returns without a foot becomes a hunting instructor for Depakka candidates and is not allowed to marry. A person's In'uljah requires a minimum of 3 years in exile, and the longest trial is documented at 15 years.

=== Itsu ===
:Itsu was born to the missing Xa'in (née Tchyarun) and Kibotosek Neir, and is the sister of Jikun Neir, brother that is 3 years her senior. A fair majority of Darjin knew of her: she was the granddaughter of Darlin Tchyarun, a member of the Consult of Darjin. Within her family, Itsu was often nicknamed Dandelion, after the flower that blooms white air-borne seeds.
==== Darjin Life ====
===== Family =====
:She has fond memories of her brother, Jikun, who had taught her to make stone spears following his ''Depakka'' hunt. The two were almost never found without one another. When preparing for her own hunt, Itsu had spent countless nights staying up late with her brother, confiding in him her anxiety that she would disappoint their mother, her hunting supervisor. Her would often tell her stories of what he thought chocobos looked like to cheer her up before the two of them fell asleep. At the end of his Depakka, Jikun gives the stone head of his hunting spear to his sister, tied to a string, as a sign of good luck. The only time anyone had seen Itsu cry was when Jikun departed for his In'uljah. Ever since, she has been a quiet individual.

===== Depakka =====
:Itsu had chosen the wooden staff as her choice of hunting weapon. Her hunting instructor was her mother, Xa'in Neir, who had also studied to become a conjurer in Gridania during her own In'uljah. Itsu had stumbled her victim Kedtrap after losing sight of her mother late at night. The young girl had tripped over the Kedtrap's root, already panicked at the thought of not completing her hunt. She ran beside a nearby tree, chased at high speeds. With quick thinking while in hiding, she tied her brother's spearhead onto the bottom of her staff. The Kedtrap was slain as her mother had relocated her.
:Xa'in chose to paint her daughter's face white, the colour that represented Safety.

===== In'uljah =====
:Itsu had departed on her In'uljah with nothing but her mother's smile and her father's embrace. Her memento spearhead had been left behind, hung on her family's heirloom wall. She departed for the trial in the year 1570. She failed to obtain a chocobo foot; the same bird she had nearly killed is her current partner.

==== Calamity/Post-Calamity ====
===== The Disappearance of Darjin =====
: Even to this day, Itsu does not know what has become of her home, Darjin. During the calamity, Itsu had hid in Gridania, already under the instruction of E-Sumi-Yan at the Stillglade Fane. With the Padjal's permission, she had taken a momentary leave from her studies to venture back to Darjin following the Battle of Carteneau and the destruction of Bahamut. Upon returning to the cove, she found countless shards of Dalamud littering her home. She could not make out much of the debris, however no bodies were found. Itsu is continuously on a search for her people.

===== Qin'jirah (Piidii) =====
: Once night, a year following the start of her In'uljah trial, Itsu had encountered a traveling merchant, resting with his chocobo. The girl had lured the chocobo away from its owner in hopes of capturing it to claim its foot. However, Itsu quickly reconsidered her actions, realizing that this bird was genuinely terrified. Noticing the look in the bird's eyes, she left a shallow scratch in its beak before abandoning it out of shame.
:Years later, during her studies in Gridania, she was offered a chocobo by the Twin Adders following a series of tasks she had done for the Grand Company. Itsu quickly noticed the scratch on the beak of the chocobo introduced to her. Though they had a rocky start, Itsu and her chocobo have developed a close relationship with each other. She is often seen wearing one of her bird's molted feathers in her hair.
: The chocobo's name is Qin'jirah, the name of the imaginary chocobo in young Jikun's bedtime stories. However, Itsu often calls the bird Piidii as a nickname.

==Character==
===First Impressions===

The first thing you notice is the glint in her emerald eyes. The light smile on her lips. Her gently furled brow. She has the look of gentle determination in her eyes. She holds her shield steady and her sword behind her, ready to strike but only if it is necessary. The wind picks up her long hair as it flows behind her. Her short demeanor disguises her steadfast stance.

===Appearance===

===Personality===

She works hard to act as a beacon of light to those around her, trying to inspire courage in the hearts of her allies. The mistakes of the past haunt her, and drives her ambition alongside her deep desire for Justice and her lust for heroic deeds. She will do whatever it takes to do the right thing and doesn’t hesitate to put others before herself. Yumi almost always has a smile on her face. Only in times of personal turmoil will she expose that which haunts her. She does, however, commonly confide in those closest to her.

===PC Rumors===
::* "She reflects sunlight with her eyes, you know. She looks at Voidsent and they immediately explode into ash and fire. That sound you hear when she draws her sword? Cries of poor Voidsent parents, knowing their children will be orphaned by her blade. I mean, but seriously! We don't call her the Void Slayer for nothing, even if she hasn't quite perfected her finishing moves..." ~ [[Taji Tribal]]

==History==
=== Early Years ===
Yumi is a victim to Garlean Imperialism. At the age of 4, she was orphaned and became a refugee. She was brought to a small orphanage near the boarders of Eorzea, where she was bullied for being one of the only non-Hyuran children there. She became close friends with the other outcast, a Lalafell named Xai. They became siblings to each other and both adopted the name Hikaru, after the light they sought in their time of darkness.
She remained there for 10 years until the Calamity, which destroyed the orphanage. The survivors fled to Ul’dah, hoping to take refuge behind its walls. Yumi and Xai managed to slip into the city and lived off of the streets as Beggars. Yumi tried to live an honest life and made gil off of odd jobs and hand-outs. Xai, on the other hand, was bitter at the world for his lot in life and occasionally stole from some of the city folk. One day, he tried to steal a coin purse off of an old man, but he was caught off guard by the old man’s quick reaction time and found himself at the wrong end of a sword. The old man was sympathetic towards the young Lalafell, and after hearing about his sister, decided to adopt both of them.

===Days in Ul'Dah===

The old man was a Highlander Hyur by the name of Lancel Stillguard. He was a retired Paladin with years of adventuring experience and a small fortune for which to live out the rest of his days. He happily shared his stories with the young refugees, who became engrossed in his tales of heroism. They both decided that they too would become adventurers, in honor of the man who gave them the light the sought. They trained under the Lancel for four years. They wouldn’t have the chance to finish their training, however. Lancel was murdered one night on his way home by a thief. He was unable to defend himself, as Yumi had borrowed his sword and shield for training. Stricken with grief and guilt, she locked herself in the house for months. Meanwhile, Xai tracked down Lancel’s killer and exacted vengeance on him, taking the murderer’s daggers as his own. He decided to become an assassin who would bring the light of Justice to those who hide in the dark.

When Yumi was finally ready to face the truth, she left Lancel’s home with his sword and shield. She decided that she would become a Paladin, in order to follow in Lancel’s footsteps, and to make sure she has the power to protect the people she loves.

== Personality ==

=== '''''Flaws''''' ===
::* '''People-Pleaser''' - Iris has trouble saying no to others, even if she is suspicious of their motives.
::* '''Misunderstanding''' - If the opportunity arises for Iris to take something in a way other than intended, she likely does.
::* '''Calculating''' - Iris plans things in such detail that it seems annoying to others, and it often causes problem as things rarely go to plan. She does not rush in.
::* '''Easily Wounded''' - Iris is likely to take failure too seriously and insult too personally. She often blames herself, especially when the loss of other's lives is concerned.

=== '''''Fears''''' ===
::* '''Loss of Control''' - Iris deeply fears not being in full control of her faculties, so rarely drinks and is deeply bothered by mind-affecting magic.
::* '''Marbols''' - Her disgust with Marbols had evolved into a fear of encountering them in the wild. She hates them and will either avoid them or melt their faces off in an attempt to be rid of them.
::* '''Loneliness''' - The most intangible fear Iris has is of being alone. She has a lot of experience feeling isolate and ears never finding someone to walk the path with.
::* '''Death''' - The abyss has claimed loved ones and friends in the past that the thought of death coming for her or others drives her into a panic, which is why her attention to the healing arts has intensified since the Calamity.

=== '''''Talents''''' ===
::*'''Alchemy''' - Iris was adopted by a family with a long history of alchemical talent, so she has worked with an alembic since she can remember. She is not the best in the world or anything, but is confident in her abilities.
::*'''Aetheric Manipulation''' - Iris has a great aptitude for summoning creatures from the aether, be it carbuncles, egi or fairies. She has developed a deep bond with these aetheric entities and has used the knowledge she's gained from mastering them to become a master of disease as well, curing or inflicting plagues with the same science that summons her allies.
::*'''Research''' - Outside of her customs work, most of Iris' time consists of expeditions to ruins or reading books in libraries, and as such she is a blossoming expert in a variety of subjects. She has been working lately on researching the Gran Grimoire possessed by her company, Arche Koeln.

== Abilities and Skills ==

=== '''''Weapons''''' ===
Wisdom - While Iris has passing familiarity with a number of weapons and combat styles, she prefers to outwit opponents and, if possible, avoid combat altogether.

=== '''''Magic''''' ===
Aetheric Manipulation - While the work of conjurers and thaumaturges seems too superstitious for her, the science of aetheric manipulation appeals to her.

=== '''''Crafting''''' ===
Alchemy - Iris' stock and trade is alchemy. It is the Blanchimont's family tradition as well as something she has studied in detail in Eorzea.

Cooking - "Cooking is a degenerate form of alchemy."

Goldsmithing - It started as a way to make gifts for her first girlfriend Eliza Scarlet. Though she stopped practicing it after Eliza's disappearance in the Calamity, she has recently renewed her efforts and mastered the trade.

Weaving - She has found sewing relaxing for some time and recently became one of the more skilled clothiers in Limsa.
