        Some form of ornate documentation, most likely of political or mercantile nature, likely to be an issued copy rather than the documentation proper.

 +
: <li>'''{ Account ( Unread ) }'''<br>
 +
        Ornate official records, the scale on the front infers it has some relevance to Ul'dah, hence almost certainly of political or mercantile nature, the
 +
        documents detail & material make-up seems to suggest it being the documentation proper rather than a copy.
 +
:
 +
: <li>'''{ Account ( Read ) }'''<br>
 +
        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, it's of a specialized consultancy company known as " The Crown "
 +
        whose brand ( logo ) rests in the middle of the document, the initials bellow it reading [ A.W ], further bellow it, it is stated that this is official documentation
 +
        issued by the immortal flames & that all information contained within is available & considered public knowledge, every member of a vassal affiliated company having
 +
        a military rank & is privy to the same rights & respect. It is further written that all personnel & individuals enumerated within this document is under the jurisdiction
 +
        of " Chief Aetherial Consultant Wrenn ", founder & owner of " The Crown " & that all inquiries pertaining to " The Crown " to be directed to her. <br>
 +
        As it's an officially issued copy of the document, the purpose of the issued documentation & it's relevance to the reader is also recorded, it reads :<br>
 +
      " With the increase in criminalistic & illicit operations & actions within Thanalan & a subset of provinces in proximity to the Ul'dahn governing body, it is for your own
 +
        safety & the safety of the Ul'dahn populous that we dispatch a representative of The Immortal Flames to assist & primarily monitor company operations within The Artifice Of
 +
        Reason. We are of one mind that the mobilization in Gyr Abania has our priority, even so, The Immortal Flames is taking such actions to assure you that you are no less protected
 +
        & provided for, even in these times of war. For The Sultana."
 +
:
 +
: <li>'''{ Crux - Mercantile [ Ul'dah, Thanalan & Neighboring Regions ] }'''<br>
 +
        Ornate official records, the scale on the front infers it has some relevance to Ul'dah, upon closer inspection you recognize the brand, it's of a specialised consultancy company
 +
        known as " The Crown ", it occasionally appears in conversations among merchants & suppliers that claim that a lot of odd & miscellaneous supplies are brought in & out of the company,
 +
        that the owner has some personal projects she must be running unbeknownst to the Immortal Flames, it's all word of mouth however. You are certain that it's a high quality copy rather
 +
        than the documentation proper, no one would sanely walk around with legally binding documentation in tow.
 +
:
 +
: <li>'''{ Crux - Political Knowledge [ Grand Companies / Ul'dah ] }'''<br>
 +
        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, the brand you recognize, it's of a specialized consultancy company, " Erudite " as you recall it
 +
        being modestly denoted as; the name to the best of your knowledge is unknown by the majority of their client base, the company being primarily referred  as the " The Crown ", apparently originating
 +
        as a joke by Immortal Flames soldiers who witnessed the owner & primary field agent " Ahlia Wrenn " & quote, end quote: " Wouldn't mind pledging allegiance to her... " Having caught on, it wasn't
 +
        long before the venture re-branded itself as such. The company itself has been the subject of both praise & concern as of late in aetherological circles, the leaders decisions being as innovative as
 +
        they are self-harming / endangering. The Immortal Flames approaching the venture with an affiliation proposition themselves was more than enough to warrant attention among political circles as well.
 +
        You are certain that it's a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no organisation would sanely walk around with the legally binding documentation in tow.
 +
:
 +
: <li>'''{ Crux - Military [ Ul'dah ] }'''<br>
 +
        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, upon closer inspection you recognize the brand, it's of a specialized consultancy
 +
        company known as " The Crown ", the joke that brought about the name isn't lost on you, originating as a joke by Immortal Flames soldiers who witnessed the owner & primary field
 +
        agent " Ahlia Wrenn " & quote, end quote: " Wouldn't mind pledging allegiance to her... ", you yourself have heard it being recycled tirelessly for a while before the soldiers finally
 +
        deigned it prudent not to run the joke into the ground. You have seen her at least once, being called to assist & provide specialized help in the field, her methods are truly odd from
 +
        what you've heard or seen & her seamless negligence of her own safety kept yourself & your equals bracing for the worst as panic became commonplace in her presence, if a soldiers
 +
        duty is to give their life for the safety of the people of Ul'dah, she seemed to embody the concept.<br>
 +
        Where one would admire her fair complexion & laugh at the notion of her even being alongside them past the safety of the walls, solemn respect, fear & concern would surely mask them by the
 +
        time her work is done. Whether you'd of seen her with your own eyes or merely heard your fellow soldiers regale her in admiration or tell of her in naught but hushed breathes, it'd of been
 +
        hard not to recall it. You are certain that the documents in tow are a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no military official or affiliate would sanely walk around
 +
        with legally binding documentation in tow.
 +
:
 +
: <li>'''{ Crux - Intrigue [ Underground - Aether / Magitek / Machina / Mercenary ] }'''<br>
 +
        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, you recognize the brand immediately, it's of a "Choir" referred to as " The Crown ", formerly
 +
        officially licensed as " Erudite ", its front is of a specialized consultancy company & is a known "Choir" of "The Church." Accounts mostly speak of them burning out clients of mercenary
 +
        corps before a call to keep them away from certain altercations, seemingly arbitrary in nature. Questionable supply flow in & out considered: aether, magitek & machina included; It's no
 +
        less known to you the attempts to draft them in on a fold since they first started calling, accounts of the attempts follow the same pattern, they don't like their hand, they don't play.<br>
 +
        As to why, you can only presume to ask yourself: "Are they bluffing?" "Trying to play up their game?" Whilst that's all well & likely in the underground, you get a feeling it isn't all as
 +
        arbitrary & rudimentary as it seems. Whether you yourself had a run in or merely heard the murder drawl, it would be hard not to be aware of them to some capacity. You are certain that the
 +
        documentation itself is a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no "speaker" of "The Church" would sanely walk around with legally binding documentation in tow.

'''Ahlia Wrenn''' ''(Eorzean Designation)'', formerly known as ''"Sakushi no Kana".''<br> <br> ''"Ahlia is merely my Eorzean designation, they tend to have a hard time with our names, understandably, I am well...Sakushi no Kana, first kin to the Sakushi Line."''<br>

First born of ''"Sakushi no Shun"'', Ahlia would act as the eventual heiress to the Sakushi Line, a line of Yanxian Strategists formerly stationed at Doma Castle, prior to Garlean Occupation.<br/>
  
'''Chachanji Gegenji''' ''(21st Sun of the 6th Astral Moon)'', also known as "Chachan," 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.<br/>

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.

''" One must never shy from suffering, for suffering breeds challenge & with challenge comes the pride of doing what must be done, when there is no answer, people look to us! "''<br>
 +
The Sakushi line & title spans only as far back as ''"Sakushi no Shun"'', Ahlia's father, which through his efforts granted the family their name & position, a new legacy for a family of formerly Yanxian commoners, henceforth giving birth to what promised to be a line of successful Doman Tacticians to follow in Shun's steps & meet the great honour & expectations granted to them.
 +
<br>
 +
<br>
 +
As heiress to the line, Ahlia's training & preparation began at a very young age, resulting in her growing to derive pleasure & joys from self-perfection, pain, challenge & adversity; Her position as the eldest meant she would one day take her father's place as the ''"Head Tactician Of Doma"'', a position that, for most, held the weight of the lively-hood of the Doman populous, one wrong decision potentially endangering the lives of the aforementioned; Ahlia knew full well her responsibility, not letting her age blind her, she took the pain, adversity & challenge as her own, turning it into her strength, will & pleasure going forward as she held her fathers words & the families creed to heart.
 
<br/>
 
<br/>
<section begin=featured-blurb />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 resolve.<section end=featured-blurb />
 
 
<br/>
 
<br/>
 +
Her father reciting his late father's teachings, always being told that there is no honour in a fight you know you'll win, his teachings tempering the girl as one would a blade, unyielding, strong & resolute, naught but a smile gracing her whenever adversity she faced, her own struggles & the tests her father would subject her to only bringing her pleasure as she pushed through the pain with a grin & the desire for greater challenges yet.
 
<br/>
 
<br/>
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.

<br/>
 
<br/>
 
<br/>
At Chachanji's side often enough is stalwart, little <b>Gran</b>; 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.
+
Ahlia's grandmother was of Xaela decent, namely the Kha, which is how she happened about her grandfather many moons ago; Whereas her father taught her: warfare, martial training, tactics & strategy, political & diplomatic conduct, trade / bartering & merchantile arts, Ahlia's grandmother taught her the finer trades: song, dance, fine arts & tailoring all accompanied by the scholastics of literature, calligraphy, prose & poetry, history & culture of the many peoples she has come across in her lifetime of travel, imparting every skill & knowledge she has earned through her tribes endeavors.<br> <br> Alongside which, tales of the Xaela people, which Ahlia holds as dear as her own birthright, her grandmother's heritage clearly flowing through her veins as she seeks a world united, embracing the cultures of the world other than shunning them & aspiring to take on the struggles of the entire world on her shoulders one fateful day.

====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Quirks</div>====
 
 
: <ul>
 
: <ul>
: <li>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.</li>
+
: <li>'''{ Tactician }'''<br>
: <li>Speaks with a cobbled-together "Eorzean accent" 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 due to finding it "fun" and thinking people enjoy hearing him talk that way.</li>
+
      Born of a long line of Doman Tacticians, she was trained from a young age to read the flow of combat & battle, accounting unexpected variables.
: <li>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 "in-keg-neato" and "thundermentals." Others he mispronounces as part of that "Eorzean accent," and has stuck to them out of habit - "halp" and "swording" being two of the most common. Frequently likes pointing out corrections with "That's what I said."</li>
+
      As well as the values of leadership, words & will.  
: <li>As a little hero to be, Chachan often jumps in to try and "halp" 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.</li>
+
: <li>'''{ Iron Will }'''<br>
: <li>Despite his smithing skill, it's almost entirely focused on the making of weapons and armor to an almost ridiculous degree. If it's not related to the crafting of either, he is likely to be unfamiliar with it. He can replicate the look, but would have difficulty making it fit its purpose - such as a frying pan that would be better suited as a mace.</li>
+
      Having the Sakushi name to uphold, her training was not kind, having to learn through pain & strive to match the expectations given to her.

 +
      This eventually developed a strong love for challenge / hardship / adversity & pain.  
 +
: <li>'''{ Mortality }'''<br>
 +
      Her love for pain & adversity leads her to often time neglect herself, putting herself in harms way more often that not.
 +
      This recklessness at her own expense is seldom healthy given the concepts of mortality.
 +
: <li>'''{ Ravaged }'''<br>
 +
        A Magitek bolt pierced her arm, rending her flesh & musculature, leaving her incapable of wielding a blade & carrying out sudden movements.

: <ul>
 
: <ul>
: <li>Energetic and positive, always eager to go out and make things better.</li>
+
: <li>'''{ Forever Young }'''<br>
: <li>Always willing to lend a hand, which often leads to him doing all sorts of tasks and errands.</li>
+
      Ahlia possesses an endearingly childish demeanor, grinning & laughing at the simplest provocation, even when faced with morbid or terrible implications she rallies people
: <li>A loyal, if oddball, friend who will always try to be there for them.</li>
+
      behind her with a smile & gleeful empowerment. Alike how she shunned other tacticians who hid behind the battlements in battle, preferring to take the front-lines, leading
: <li>Surprisingly knowledgeable about armor and weapon materials, and knows his way around a smith's hammer.</li>
+
      from alongside her people.  
: <li>Stubborn desire to protect means he oft refuses to give up when the chips are down.</li>
+
: <li>'''{ She's A Lady }'''<br>
 +
      For all her childish tendencies, Ahlia is very well spoken, elegant & well mannered, seldom referring anyone in a familiar fashion unless explicitly permitted, more often than
 +
      not referring to even the lowest of trade & questionable of intentions with honorifics & pleasantries, almost exclusively regarding anyone by their last names until prompted
 +
      otherwise, unless they are of a tribal demeanor: Xaela especially.
 +
: <li>'''{ Objection! }'''<br>
 +
      Ahlia doesn't stand being contradicted on factual accounts, prompting the only occasion she has to fake her smile, this seldom affects her enough to warrant her dropping
 +
      her smile, if it does however, she will do so, taking on a perfectly professional demeanor, yet NEVER speaking ill or regarding someone impolitely & NEVER keeping a grudge
 +
      or holding anything against anyone, she knows that most of the time, individuals demeanor are out of their control, often times being the product of societal adaptation,
 +
      temporary mood swings / experiences or social reprisal.  
 +
: <li>'''{ Intrepid Polymath }'''<br>
 +
      Ahlia has become accustomed with recording all her findings to the extent that she does so incredibly quickly, recounting & accounting next to anything of importance
 +
      for future use & reference, even going as far as creating full scale painting to recount events or happenings for posterity.
 +
: <li>'''{ Rehabilitation }'''<br>
 +
        Ahlia has attended to her rehabilitation enough that wielding a blade is possible, yet the sheer pain makes it implausible, at least for right now to do so effectively.
 +
        Her body & musculature, unlike her build & appearance would suggest, is well defined yet still possessing her kinds fair features & elegance, defined more so than you
 +
        would expect given her condition, making it apparent that she struggled through the pain to maintain herself.
 +
: <li>'''{ Miss World Wide }'''<br>
 +
        Ahlia's Xaela Kha heritage & her time in Eorzea further enforced her desires & love for the cultures & history of all nations & civilizations, going as far as collecting
 +
        history & attire of importance to each culture, wearing it & adoring to regale people with tales of the civilizations proper.
 +
: <li>'''{ Eorzea, In Season }'''<br>
 +
        Eorzean influences made their way into Ahlia's aesthetic quite substantially over time, whereas she seldom adorned her face with hues & her clothes with gold, she slowly took
 +
        a liking to the practices, recently being of one mind to fully commit to her international appraisal, adorning her visage with red hues. As well as donning attire & applying
 +
        accessories that featured ellectrum, to better permit the flow of aether as well as propagating that Ul'dah flair she adores so!

: <ul>
 
: <li>Terrible decision-maker, usually going for what seems like the easiest or "most helpful."</li>
 
: <li>His friendliness and willingness to help also makes him easily fleeced and taken advantage of.</li>
 
: <li>A bit of a crybaby, and can shut down if things go south for him.</li>
 
: <li>While he's been learning how to use sword and shield to protect people, he lacks any sort of combat skill or the willingness to draw blood.</li>
 
: <li>A bit of a dumb when it comes to anything beyond his smithing profession.</li>
 
: <li>His desire to see his friends happy can often lead to him becoming a bit of a worrywart, and frequently gets upset if the best option to help is to "do nothing."</li>

====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Occupation Of Doma</div>====
 +
Ahlia was naught but 12 when the Garlean offensive first struck, for all her training & contribution in the council, she was kept from joining the field, gracing each other with a wry smile & knowing nod as her father headed out into the chaos, never once did she anticipate her fathers demise & the Garlean offensive that came to shake the foundations of Othard. As Master Gekkai tore a hole through their plans & chaos devolved. With her father's death Ahlia would take formal leadership of the line, her unwavering smile not being broken for a second as she knew what was to come.
 +
<br><br>
 +
That fateful day showed her first hand the terrors of war, the challenge that she so longed for... & she wanted more.
 +
<br>
 +
<br>
 +
Years later, with the War Of Succession underway, an opportunity had arisen to strike back at the Garlean threat; The challenge, the challenge she sought out so fervently was there, burning the fields & men before her very eyes, the might of the Garlean technological superiority, the destruction that was wrought by the Garlean Magitek beasts, it burned into her eyes, the image leaving her agasp, she understood then, even if Master Gekkai didn't turn his blade against their kin & the battle was won, she knew, they would of lost the war, in that moment of unbridled fascination & absence however, a Magitek bolt flew, piercing her arm, rending her flesh, dropping her blade. Regaining her composure, a toothed grin graced her lips as she quickly relayed orders to retreat, sparring the lives of her men was all she could do, the offensive had failed.
 +
<br> <br>
 +
In order to protect the families, prevent further bloodshed & find aid among the people of distant shores, it was unanimously elected that we flee Othard & set sail to Eorzea, where Yugiri & the remaining loyal shinobi would yet hope to elect the kindness & assistance of our yet distant Eorzean kin.
 +
<br> <br>
 +
Ahlia, anticipating the possibility of the failure of their attempt at retaking Doma, took measures to assure the safety of her family & those loyal to her; she journeyed to the Azim Steppes, home of multiple Xaela Tribes, where she faced the trials of Bardam's Mettle, granting her the rights & honour of a warrior of the steppe. This allowing her to arrange a refuge for her kin with the ''Kha'' & ''Malaguld'' tribes,  be it that they failed.
 +
When the retaking of Doma failed, the poeple of Kha rejoiced to see one of their elders having returned from a beautiful & resounding life, no second too late before barraging the Doman & our family with curiosity & praise, pride in their eyes as they saw her kin, me & my siblings, it was enough to wash away the terrors of that day away, as the celebrations commenced, prior to Ahlia's departure for Eorzea.
 +
<br> <br>
 +
Ahlia with a toothed grin & a dangerous joy in her eyes, left the next day for Eorzea alongside her fellow Yanxians, hope & passion burning in her heart as she craved to understand Aether, Magitek & the source of the Garlean superiority that left them so powerless in the end & which marked a new day for herself & her people.

: 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.
+
Upon reaching Eorzea, Ahlia dispersed from the rest as they sought refuge, having had the musculature of her right arm torn by the magitek bolt, rendering her unable to wield a blade, she left pursuing knowledge, so that the mistakes she made would not result in the death of any more of her kin; Kana, adopting the designation of Ahlia Wrenn, began to seek out authorities on aetherology & it's applications across Eorzea.
: <br/>
+
<br> <br>
: 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.
+
As an intrepid polymath on a journey to aetherial understanding, she eventually made a name for herself as a strict practitioner, with an air of unwavering resolution & almost terrifying joy, braving the depths & limits of the study, stopping at nothing to expand her understanding on the applications of aether; upon completion of her studies with what must have been her 14th mentor yet, she was redirected to ''Saint Coinach's Find'', in Mor Dhona, where the Sharlayan's stationed there welcomed her with open hands & endeavored to teach her the last of the art.
: <br/>
+
<br><br>
:  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.
+
Upon learning all she could, Ahlia had to bid farewell to those that she had come to know as family once more, seeking out Ul'dah, where she enlisted in the Immortal Flames.
: <br/>
+
<br><br>
 +
Her reputation among aetherological authorities in the area & the renown of her dealings with multiple highly prestigious aetherological researchers, quickly secured her a position as an Aetherological Consultant for the Immortal Flames, a position which she yet holds until today.
 +
Stationed temporarily alongside the Machina & Magitek division, Ahlia had come to associate herself with individuals of varying pursuits & allegiances, the pleasure of working alongside others of similar predisposition & craft was exactly what she needed to push her forward in the domain, however, with recent events & happening leading to the Eorzean Alliances focus on reclaiming Gyr Abania from Garlean occupation, the division was quickly deployed by the flames. Her priorities being first & foremost her own people, she promptly disappeared, resigning from their employ & seeking out news of Doma.
 +
<br><br>
 +
A forum of Yanxian & Doman loyalists was called, many young souls speaking of their home's liberation as soul after soul went about preparing for the efforts that would soon be made to reclaim our home.
 +
Her unyielding passion for the technology that ravaged her home led her to actively seek out knowledge to empower herself & take on greater challenges yet, all with a childish grin gracing her lips as she herself readies for that fateful day to come.

: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
[[File:Chachanfool.png|300px|left|Tarot Card by Rhea Zaheela]]
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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!
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.

: 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?

=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Ul'dah Small Things''</div>=====
 
 
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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 "adopted big sister" [[Leanne Delphium]], and slowly came to see the Hourglass as a sort of second home to replace the fallen Doma.
 
[[File:Chachanshocked.png|300px|right|Shocked Chachan! by Elicoidali]]
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
 
 
=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Coral Me, Maybe?''</div>=====
 
 
 
: 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 "The Coral Sea": 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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 "attack" in the Quicksand. He interjected then, offering his help and nearly demanding that the pink-haired Lalafell seek help for her problem.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: [[File:BunnySamurai.png|500px|left|Amazing arts by Shadottie!]]
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: Bolstered by such news, Chachanji finally executed his plan for a surprise cheering-up party for his "adopted" 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 "family." 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.
 
: <br/>
 
 
 
=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Pink-Convenient Truths''</div>=====
 
 
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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 "fighting" 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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' "Meli Day" 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.

=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Wake Me Up Before You Gogon''</div>=====
 
[[File:GegenjiBros.jpg|350px|right|Gegenji Brothers by Sasha Rochester]]
 
: 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 "adopted sister" Leanne happened across Chachanji's missing older brother at the Bobbing Cork in Fallgourd Float. And it was not a pleasant meeting.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
 
 
=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Stop, Hammer Time''</div>=====
 
 
 
: 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 "killer instinct" 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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.
 
: <br/>
 
: 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. Calling 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 - the smallfolk spent much time honing skill and technique, from combat to Chachan's aiding one [[V'aleera Lhuil]] in the restoration of an ancient Doman naginata.
 
: <br/>
 
: In what seemed like no time at all, the Lalafell returned home to the Still Shore with their respective skills greatly improved. However, Virara would seek to continue returning to the North to hone her abilities ever-higher, though her first attempt to return there started rather ignobly with a panicked flight that left the ever-worried Chachanji with nearly-broken legs that required ample healing magic - and a week in braces - before he could walk properly again. This, of course, drew the ire of his older brother - who hunted Virara down along with others of Chachan's Free Company in order to bring her home. When she displayed little remorse for what she had done, however, the conflict between Virara and Gogonji's views on what was best for the youngest Gegenji came to a head, resulting in Gogonji forbidding the two ever being in contact again.
 
: <br/>
 
: Little Chachan attempted to heed his brother's words at first, but so suddenly and sharply severing the bond of friendship he had made with Virara was a painful and ultimately impossible task. The two came to blows on the beaches of Mist, in a strange reversal with Chachanji seeking to show how useful he could be compared to Virara's complacent display of what he had already shown her. The two made up and resumed their friendship, and Virara even bade the boy resume his unique combat training so that he could be at her side when they ultimately faced off with her Master. Yet while that solved part of the problem, it set the seeds for another when a visit from Annunu led to Gogonji learning of his younger sibling's disobedience.
 
: <br/>
 
: The meeting between the two Gegenji brothers was doomed at the start, which Gogonji verbally berating his younger brother for his actions - naming not only Virara but the entire Free Company he was a part of as being nothing more than dangers to the boy's safety. He demanded that Chachanji permanently sever ties with Virara in accordance to his earlier edict, and even ordered him to come stay with him and Annunu to further protect him from the inherent threats of the Still Shore. Chachanji, for the second time in his life, defied his brother - refusing to heed his words and even going so far as to inform his elder sibling of his disinheritance. The result of their heated argument and the revelations therein was Gogonji blacking out - the situation giving the remaining fragments within him a window to assault his mind - and little Chachanji forced to shoulder the weight of his actions both figuratively and literally as he carried his sibling to Annunu.
 
: <br/>
 
: The two spoke at length as Gogonji slumbered, Chachanji defending his actions as best he could against Annunu's berating. However, in the end, the boy was forced to admit that there was truth to the words of both his brother and his now-mate: he still acted much too childish for someone set to be the next heir of the Gegenji family, with his veritable tantrum at his brother's demands the latest proof of that. While he still refused to give up his friends at the Still Shore, he conceded that he needed to act more appropriately of someone his age and position. And now he faces quite an adult burden indeed: how to prove to his older brother that he is fit to fill the role their father has given him, and ensure that he will bring honor to the Gegenji name instead of childish disgrace...
 
: <br/>
 
 
 
=====<div style="padding:0px 0px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">''Inci-Dentra-l Reports''</div>=====
 
: And so little Chachan turned even more focus towards improving both his smithing skill and his standing with his fellow smiths. The boy who had been so against "just making weapons and armor" when he first came to Eorzea was now making regular visits to Limsa to aid in the workload. He took jobs that he would've turned up his ideal-driven teenage nose at before, and started receiving more distinguished projects: making new chain shirts for the Yellowjackets, and his work with Cyneler's refitting got the Sultansworn coming to him now and then to do further customization work for their Paladins.
 
: <br/>
 
: That was not to say that he had forgotten his promise to Virara. During his breaks, the little Lalafell could be seen at the Free Company's training dummy - strangely draped in weapons and armor of both his own and other's make. There he'd practice his still in-progress fighting style, seeking to damage and break the gear while leaving the dummy itself as unharmed as possible. While his skill at the technique grew from moons of practice, there was still a flaw: this sort of combat would have little to no practical use against pugilists and others who relied little on arms and armor. However, a chance meeting with former-Coralite [[Valentinoix Thibault]] provided a solution - the knowledge and skill of one [[Berrod Armstrong]] - who, on meeting with the Lalafell, bequeathed him with a scroll on pressure points and the sage guidance that lethality in combat was dependent on the user's self control and technique. The new combat style - which Virara has taken to calling the "non-killing sword" - is still very much in the developmental phases, but is continuing apace.
 
: <br/>
 
[[File:ChachaZhara.png|350px|left|Another amazing piece by Ayaka, commissioned by Zhara!]]
 
: And such skills would be tested in short order, for a strange misshapen ingot brought to him by the kindly Jancis Milburgia cast the both of them - along with Virara and Jancis' close companion [[Barengar Armsbreaker]] - into a deadly puzzle indeed. Hidden within the tin shell was three other ingots - one of silver, one of magnetic iron, and one of mythril - with a message to "seek their kin." A visit to Poor Maid's Mill to seek the smith who gifted the strange item to the lady Conjurer resulted in few answers but further intrigue as the man was found dead suns later, drifting down the river and the entire crew with a feeling of being watched. Such eyes also began to follow Chachan's newfound friend [[Tiroro Roro]] after speaking on the matter at the Grindstone, bringing the other Lalafell into the fold as well. Things only got worse as the group investigated the mines where the ingots originated - dealing with attempted poisonings, mind control, open conflict, and even Jancis herself being used as an arcane bug to keep tabs on their comings and goings. In the end, however, they overcame the red-earringed rogues and Chachan found himself bequeathed the title of Seneschal of House Dentra - and with it, proprietary control over their smelting guild and various patents.
 
: <br/>
 
: Suddenly being thrust into the position of figurehead for an Ul'dahn organization that held claim to mining facilities as far as La Noscea added a whole new pile of responsibilities onto the young Lalafell, further complicated by his mother's insistence that all aspects of House Dentra's operations be double and triple-checked to ensure all was working as it should. Combine that with his personal obligations as a smith, and such tasks quickly ate up a lot of his free time. In a desperate attempt to try and reclaim some of his freedom, Chachanji sought to enter his Draught Chocobo Avenger into the Gold Saucer's sanctioned chocobo races. And it was there he crossed paths with then-Saucer employee and aspiring performer [[Y'zhara Zekial]], and repeated meetings ultimately led to the two entering a relationship with the two supporting each other in their new endeavors. Zhara helped with managing Chachan's now sizeable workload, and the Lalafell in turn supported the Miqo'te as she debuted along with three other girls as the band WYNG.
 
: <br/>
 
: Maintaining a personal smithy, serving as figurehead to a smelting guild, developing a non-lethal fighting style, and now in a relationship - little Chachanji certainly has his hands full.

| <div style="font-size:11px;">Chachan's second - and current - girlfriend, who just recently hit the music scene as part of the pop idol group WYNG. The two met at the Gold Saucer by chance, and continued interactions developed into a relationship. Cheerful on the surface, but with a myriad insecurities and worries underneath, the two make for quite the pair of kindred spirits. He is supportive of her career to a fault, and makes a point to try to make it to every one of her performances - with WYNG or solo.</div>

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 "little brother" definitely included.

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. Various other interactions with her have solidified that view - that Virara is a good person deep down.</div>

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.</div>

| <div style="font-size:11px;">One of the many "princesses" 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. To this day, he finds her presence comforting and enjoyable.</div>

Ever since, he's tried to keep an eye out for his much larger new friend, doubly so since she lacks sight. This has been made all the easier due to her endearingly friendly nature and general lovability. If she ever needs help, Chachan would certainly be among the first in line to give it.</div>

Upon learning of the Elezen's light-sensitivity, the Doman hunted down a pair of smithing goggles - to better help Val see the world around him. After all, there's an entire world for him to see and enjoy during the daylight hours! Seize the day, Mr. Val!</div>

The Miqo'te's trip north to Ishgard put a bit of a damper on those plans, but the little Lalafell eagerly awaits seeing him again.</div>

| <div style="font-size:11px;">A Sultansworn-in-Training that started her training at the same time Chachanji started his own. First they were "rivals" to see who would complete their goal first, though Rose ultimate won that particular race. She and Leanne dated, and the subsequent breakup that left his "Big Sister" depressed and heartbroken immediately soured the Lalafell's opinion on her. She took his promised shin-kicking relatively well, but further lack of interaction has left Chachan's feelings on her nebulous at best.</div>

| <div style="font-size:11px;">Meetings with the apparently much older Dunesfolk almost always seems to turn sour. Conflicts over Chachan's pet baby behemoth Gran led to personal jabs to Koporo's strange self-appointed mentoring to toughen up "Rabbit-Ears." Beating the older Lalafell at the Grindstone ceased some of the more overt conflicts, but interactions continue to be troublesome at best. And after Koporo's outburst at the Halone pilgrimage, it's unlikely Chachanji will ever really see him in a positive light.</div>

: * Chachanji's cactuar earring is part of a matching set, with the other belonging to his older brother Gogonji. Both earrings originally belonged to Gogonji, and we given to him as a Namesday gift by their mother after a return trip to her home city of Ul'dah.
 
: * Chachanji has won the Grindstone exactly once - on January 3rd, 2015. Unsure what to do with the sudden influx of gil, he put it instead towards helping pay for a funeral for a fellow Coralite and later to booking the Bismarck to cheer up his depressed adopted 'sister.' Nearly two weeks later, on the 14th, a drink appeared on the Quicksand menu that consisted of sweetwater and a random mix of fruit juices - a Champion Chachan.
 
: * Chachanji's very first girlfriend ever was [[Yukumazi Mikazi]], who kissed him on a dare at [[Memeli Meli]]'s slumber party on January 10th, 2015.
 
: * Chachanji was crowned 2015 Mr. Eorzea on April 14th, despite a grand showing by Highlanders and Roegadyns. He was purportedly talked into entering by his then-girlfriend [[Memeli Meli]].

    The character must be actively inspecting it, meaning it has to be in their possession & necessitating a sensible enough amount of rp time to read the available information. The exact amount of time I leave to your discretion.


      { VISUAL ACCOUNT : FRONT COVER }
  • { A.T.A }
  •        Some form of ornate documentation, most likely of political or mercantile nature, likely to be an issued copy rather than the documentation proper.
    
  • { Account ( Unread ) }
  •        Ornate official records, the scale on the front infers it has some relevance to Ul'dah, hence almost certainly of political or mercantile nature, the 
           documents detail & material make-up seems to suggest it being the documentation proper rather than a copy.
    
  • { Account ( Read ) }
  •        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, it's of a specialized consultancy company known as " The Crown " 
           whose brand ( logo ) rests in the middle of the document, the initials bellow it reading [ A.W ], further bellow it, it is stated that this is official documentation 
           issued by the immortal flames & that all information contained within is available & considered public knowledge, every member of a vassal affiliated company having 
           a military rank & is privy to the same rights & respect. It is further written that all personnel & individuals enumerated within this document is under the jurisdiction 
           of " Chief Aetherial Consultant Wrenn ", founder & owner of " The Crown " & that all inquiries pertaining to " The Crown " to be directed to her. 
    As it's an officially issued copy of the document, the purpose of the issued documentation & it's relevance to the reader is also recorded, it reads :
    " With the increase in criminalistic & illicit operations & actions within Thanalan & a subset of provinces in proximity to the Ul'dahn governing body, it is for your own safety & the safety of the Ul'dahn populous that we dispatch a representative of The Immortal Flames to assist & primarily monitor company operations within The Artifice Of Reason. We are of one mind that the mobilization in Gyr Abania has our priority, even so, The Immortal Flames is taking such actions to assure you that you are no less protected & provided for, even in these times of war. For The Sultana."
  • { Crux - Mercantile [ Ul'dah, Thanalan & Neighboring Regions ] }
  •        Ornate official records, the scale on the front infers it has some relevance to Ul'dah, upon closer inspection you recognize the brand, it's of a specialised consultancy company 
           known as " The Crown ", it occasionally appears in conversations among merchants & suppliers that claim that a lot of odd & miscellaneous supplies are brought in & out of the company, 
           that the owner has some personal projects she must be running unbeknownst to the Immortal Flames, it's all word of mouth however. You are certain that it's a high quality copy rather 
           than the documentation proper, no one would sanely walk around with legally binding documentation in tow.
    
  • { Crux - Political Knowledge [ Grand Companies / Ul'dah ] }
  •        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, the brand you recognize, it's of a specialized consultancy company, " Erudite " as you recall it 
           being modestly denoted as; the name to the best of your knowledge is unknown by the majority of their client base, the company being primarily referred  as the " The Crown ", apparently originating 
           as a joke by Immortal Flames soldiers who witnessed the owner & primary field agent " Ahlia Wrenn " & quote, end quote: " Wouldn't mind pledging allegiance to her... " Having caught on, it wasn't 
           long before the venture re-branded itself as such. The company itself has been the subject of both praise & concern as of late in aetherological circles, the leaders decisions being as innovative as 
           they are self-harming / endangering. The Immortal Flames approaching the venture with an affiliation proposition themselves was more than enough to warrant attention among political circles as well. 
           You are certain that it's a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no organisation would sanely walk around with the legally binding documentation in tow.
    
  • { Crux - Military [ Ul'dah ] }
  •        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, upon closer inspection you recognize the brand, it's of a specialized consultancy 
           company known as " The Crown ", the joke that brought about the name isn't lost on you, originating as a joke by Immortal Flames soldiers who witnessed the owner & primary field 
           agent " Ahlia Wrenn " & quote, end quote: " Wouldn't mind pledging allegiance to her... ", you yourself have heard it being recycled tirelessly for a while before the soldiers finally 
           deigned it prudent not to run the joke into the ground. You have seen her at least once, being called to assist & provide specialized help in the field, her methods are truly odd from 
           what you've heard or seen & her seamless negligence of her own safety kept yourself & your equals bracing for the worst as panic became commonplace in her presence, if a soldiers 
           duty is to give their life for the safety of the people of Ul'dah, she seemed to embody the concept.
    Where one would admire her fair complexion & laugh at the notion of her even being alongside them past the safety of the walls, solemn respect, fear & concern would surely mask them by the time her work is done. Whether you'd of seen her with your own eyes or merely heard your fellow soldiers regale her in admiration or tell of her in naught but hushed breathes, it'd of been hard not to recall it. You are certain that the documents in tow are a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no military official or affiliate would sanely walk around with legally binding documentation in tow.
  • { Crux - Intrigue [ Underground - Aether / Magitek / Machina / Mercenary ] }
  •        The official personnel records of a decently ranked Immortal Flames vassal affiliate company, you recognize the brand immediately, it's of a "Choir" referred to as " The Crown ", formerly 
           officially licensed as " Erudite ", its front is of a specialized consultancy company & is a known "Choir" of "The Church." Accounts mostly speak of them burning out clients of mercenary 
           corps before a call to keep them away from certain altercations, seemingly arbitrary in nature. Questionable supply flow in & out considered: aether, magitek & machina included; It's no 
           less known to you the attempts to draft them in on a fold since they first started calling, accounts of the attempts follow the same pattern, they don't like their hand, they don't play.
    As to why, you can only presume to ask yourself: "Are they bluffing?" "Trying to play up their game?" Whilst that's all well & likely in the underground, you get a feeling it isn't all as arbitrary & rudimentary as it seems. Whether you yourself had a run in or merely heard the murder drawl, it would be hard not to be aware of them to some capacity. You are certain that the documentation itself is a high quality copy rather than the documentation proper, no "speaker" of "The Church" would sanely walk around with legally binding documentation in tow.

    Upbringing

    Ahlia Wrenn (Eorzean Designation), formerly known as "Sakushi no Kana".

    "Ahlia is merely my Eorzean designation, they tend to have a hard time with our names, understandably, I am well...Sakushi no Kana, first kin to the Sakushi Line."
    First born of "Sakushi no Shun", Ahlia would act as the eventual heiress to the Sakushi Line, a line of Yanxian Strategists formerly stationed at Doma Castle, prior to Garlean Occupation.



    " One must never shy from suffering, for suffering breeds challenge & with challenge comes the pride of doing what must be done, when there is no answer, people look to us! "
    The Sakushi line & title spans only as far back as "Sakushi no Shun", Ahlia's father, which through his efforts granted the family their name & position, a new legacy for a family of formerly Yanxian commoners, henceforth giving birth to what promised to be a line of successful Doman Tacticians to follow in Shun's steps & meet the great honour & expectations granted to them.

    As heiress to the line, Ahlia's training & preparation began at a very young age, resulting in her growing to derive pleasure & joys from self-perfection, pain, challenge & adversity; Her position as the eldest meant she would one day take her father's place as the "Head Tactician Of Doma", a position that, for most, held the weight of the lively-hood of the Doman populous, one wrong decision potentially endangering the lives of the aforementioned; Ahlia knew full well her responsibility, not letting her age blind her, she took the pain, adversity & challenge as her own, turning it into her strength, will & pleasure going forward as she held her fathers words & the families creed to heart.

    Her father reciting his late father's teachings, always being told that there is no honour in a fight you know you'll win, his teachings tempering the girl as one would a blade, unyielding, strong & resolute, naught but a smile gracing her whenever adversity she faced, her own struggles & the tests her father would subject her to only bringing her pleasure as she pushed through the pain with a grin & the desire for greater challenges yet.


    Ahlia's grandmother was of Xaela decent, namely the Kha, which is how she happened about her grandfather many moons ago; Whereas her father taught her: warfare, martial training, tactics & strategy, political & diplomatic conduct, trade / bartering & merchantile arts, Ahlia's grandmother taught her the finer trades: song, dance, fine arts & tailoring all accompanied by the scholastics of literature, calligraphy, prose & poetry, history & culture of the many peoples she has come across in her lifetime of travel, imparting every skill & knowledge she has earned through her tribes endeavors.

    Alongside which, tales of the Xaela people, which Ahlia holds as dear as her own birthright, her grandmother's heritage clearly flowing through her veins as she seeks a world united, embracing the cultures of the world other than shunning them & aspiring to take on the struggles of the entire world on her shoulders one fateful day.

    •       Born of a long line of Doman Tacticians, she was trained from a young age to read the flow of combat & battle, accounting unexpected variables.

    • { Iron Will }
    •       Having the Sakushi name to uphold, her training was not kind, having to learn through pain & strive to match the expectations given to her.

    • { Mortality }
    •       Her love for pain & adversity leads her to often time neglect herself, putting herself in harms way more often that not.

    • { Ravaged }
    •        A Magitek bolt pierced her arm, rending her flesh & musculature, leaving her incapable of wielding a blade & carrying out sudden movements.
      

      Nature

      • { Forever Young }
      •       Ahlia possesses an endearingly childish demeanor, grinning & laughing at the simplest provocation, even when faced with morbid or terrible implications she rallies people 
              behind her with a smile & gleeful empowerment. Alike how she shunned other tacticians who hid behind the battlements in battle, preferring to take the front-lines, leading 
              from alongside her people. 
        
      • { She's A Lady }
      •       For all her childish tendencies, Ahlia is very well spoken, elegant & well mannered, seldom referring anyone in a familiar fashion unless explicitly permitted, more often than 
              not referring to even the lowest of trade & questionable of intentions with honorifics & pleasantries, almost exclusively regarding anyone by their last names until prompted 
              otherwise, unless they are of a tribal demeanor: Xaela especially.
        
      • { Objection! }
      •       Ahlia doesn't stand being contradicted on factual accounts, prompting the only occasion she has to fake her smile, this seldom affects her enough to warrant her dropping
              her smile, if it does however, she will do so, taking on a perfectly professional demeanor, yet NEVER speaking ill or regarding someone impolitely & NEVER keeping a grudge 
              or holding anything against anyone, she knows that most of the time, individuals demeanor are out of their control, often times being the product of societal adaptation, 
              temporary mood swings / experiences or social reprisal. 
        
      • { Intrepid Polymath }
      •       Ahlia has become accustomed with recording all her findings to the extent that she does so incredibly quickly, recounting & accounting next to anything of importance
              for future use & reference, even going as far as creating full scale painting to recount events or happenings for posterity.
        
      • { Rehabilitation }
      •        Ahlia has attended to her rehabilitation enough that wielding a blade is possible, yet the sheer pain makes it implausible, at least for right now to do so effectively. 
               Her body & musculature, unlike her build & appearance would suggest, is well defined yet still possessing her kinds fair features & elegance, defined more so than you 
               would expect given her condition, making it apparent that she struggled through the pain to maintain herself.
        
      • { Miss World Wide }
      •        Ahlia's Xaela Kha heritage & her time in Eorzea further enforced her desires & love for the cultures & history of all nations & civilizations, going as far as collecting
               history & attire of importance to each culture, wearing it & adoring to regale people with tales of the civilizations proper.
        
      • { Eorzea, In Season }
      •        Eorzean influences made their way into Ahlia's aesthetic quite substantially over time, whereas she seldom adorned her face with hues & her clothes with gold, she slowly took 
               a liking to the practices, recently being of one mind to fully commit to her international appraisal, adorning her visage with red hues. As well as donning attire & applying 
               accessories that featured ellectrum, to better permit the flow of aether as well as propagating that Ul'dah flair she adores so!
        


        Timeline

        Occupation Of Doma

        Ahlia was naught but 12 when the Garlean offensive first struck, for all her training & contribution in the council, she was kept from joining the field, gracing each other with a wry smile & knowing nod as her father headed out into the chaos, never once did she anticipate her fathers demise & the Garlean offensive that came to shake the foundations of Othard. As Master Gekkai tore a hole through their plans & chaos devolved. With her father's death Ahlia would take formal leadership of the line, her unwavering smile not being broken for a second as she knew what was to come.

        That fateful day showed her first hand the terrors of war, the challenge that she so longed for... & she wanted more.

        Years later, with the War Of Succession underway, an opportunity had arisen to strike back at the Garlean threat; The challenge, the challenge she sought out so fervently was there, burning the fields & men before her very eyes, the might of the Garlean technological superiority, the destruction that was wrought by the Garlean Magitek beasts, it burned into her eyes, the image leaving her agasp, she understood then, even if Master Gekkai didn't turn his blade against their kin & the battle was won, she knew, they would of lost the war, in that moment of unbridled fascination & absence however, a Magitek bolt flew, piercing her arm, rending her flesh, dropping her blade. Regaining her composure, a toothed grin graced her lips as she quickly relayed orders to retreat, sparring the lives of her men was all she could do, the offensive had failed.

        In order to protect the families, prevent further bloodshed & find aid among the people of distant shores, it was unanimously elected that we flee Othard & set sail to Eorzea, where Yugiri & the remaining loyal shinobi would yet hope to elect the kindness & assistance of our yet distant Eorzean kin.

        Ahlia, anticipating the possibility of the failure of their attempt at retaking Doma, took measures to assure the safety of her family & those loyal to her; she journeyed to the Azim Steppes, home of multiple Xaela Tribes, where she faced the trials of Bardam's Mettle, granting her the rights & honour of a warrior of the steppe. This allowing her to arrange a refuge for her kin with the Kha & Malaguld tribes, be it that they failed. When the retaking of Doma failed, the poeple of Kha rejoiced to see one of their elders having returned from a beautiful & resounding life, no second too late before barraging the Doman & our family with curiosity & praise, pride in their eyes as they saw her kin, me & my siblings, it was enough to wash away the terrors of that day away, as the celebrations commenced, prior to Ahlia's departure for Eorzea.

        Ahlia with a toothed grin & a dangerous joy in her eyes, left the next day for Eorzea alongside her fellow Yanxians, hope & passion burning in her heart as she craved to understand Aether, Magitek & the source of the Garlean superiority that left them so powerless in the end & which marked a new day for herself & her people.

        A New Home

        Upon reaching Eorzea, Ahlia dispersed from the rest as they sought refuge, having had the musculature of her right arm torn by the magitek bolt, rendering her unable to wield a blade, she left pursuing knowledge, so that the mistakes she made would not result in the death of any more of her kin; Kana, adopting the designation of Ahlia Wrenn, began to seek out authorities on aetherology & it's applications across Eorzea.

        As an intrepid polymath on a journey to aetherial understanding, she eventually made a name for herself as a strict practitioner, with an air of unwavering resolution & almost terrifying joy, braving the depths & limits of the study, stopping at nothing to expand her understanding on the applications of aether; upon completion of her studies with what must have been her 14th mentor yet, she was redirected to Saint Coinach's Find, in Mor Dhona, where the Sharlayan's stationed there welcomed her with open hands & endeavored to teach her the last of the art.

        Upon learning all she could, Ahlia had to bid farewell to those that she had come to know as family once more, seeking out Ul'dah, where she enlisted in the Immortal Flames.

        Her reputation among aetherological authorities in the area & the renown of her dealings with multiple highly prestigious aetherological researchers, quickly secured her a position as an Aetherological Consultant for the Immortal Flames, a position which she yet holds until today. Stationed temporarily alongside the Machina & Magitek division, Ahlia had come to associate herself with individuals of varying pursuits & allegiances, the pleasure of working alongside others of similar predisposition & craft was exactly what she needed to push her forward in the domain, however, with recent events & happening leading to the Eorzean Alliances focus on reclaiming Gyr Abania from Garlean occupation, the division was quickly deployed by the flames. Her priorities being first & foremost her own people, she promptly disappeared, resigning from their employ & seeking out news of Doma.

        A forum of Yanxian & Doman loyalists was called, many young souls speaking of their home's liberation as soul after soul went about preparing for the efforts that would soon be made to reclaim our home. Her unyielding passion for the technology that ravaged her home led her to actively seek out knowledge to empower herself & take on greater challenges yet, all with a childish grin gracing her lips as she herself readies for that fateful day to come.
