Character
Onuma is a miqo'te that lived on the outskirts of Gridania prior to the Calamity. She was one of a family of three that lived somewhere in the southern thickets of the Black Shroud, but since that time she is the only surviving member. Thinking she lost everything, she moved to the harsh desert region of Thanalan to try to start her life anew. When she arrived at Ul'dah, she had little but the clothing on her back, two throwing knives and a few mint currencies of gil on her person.
Nearly four cycles later, Onuma has now made a fairly earned name for herself in the city; from battle in the Coliseum to merchants and trade, where she is sometimes seen as a threat for her craftsmanship. Despite this reputation, she raised higher goals for herself and took up arms, defending the traveled trade routes leading in-and-out of Thanalan and Ul'dah herself. She became a familiar face to many a Brass Blade or Immortal Flame member, and gained recognition for her efforts.
She eventually moved on to other things, traveling everywhere to both learn and spread her capabilities. She makes daily use of those learned skills. It was only at an enlightening point in her life that she decided to engage her endeavors to be a free-reign paladin. Over the course of her time spent with her friends, Onuma had a long way to go before she began to understand what it meant to be one, and what kind of path was carved out for her.
Onuma has undergone significant changes and trials over the many passing moons. She's had her ups and downs, the mindset and the heart shaken, and through it all her willpower and strength tested. Haunted by a history that plagued her, Onuma sought out a path to right what the past wronged. As time goes on, Onuma has gained much experience from the battles she and the 81st Foreign Levy have fought, though there have been significant losses which has inevitably led to the feeling of victory being tarnished for the paladin.
Now, a new chapter begins in her life, this time without her beloved.
After a particularly traumatizing event, there have been some notable change in how Onuma appears. The one that stands out the most is her hair, which appears to have lost a large amount of pigmentation. White streaks course through the black, slipping even so far as to reach the fluffed tip of her tail; it has turned completely white. Despite this, she stands tall, determination set on her features. Her amber eyes possess a boldness in them that's only accentuated by the savage looking markings painted meticulously on her pale face. In idle moments, her small lips are drawn into a thin line. She hides what she may be feeling beneath a stony mask. These days if she isn't locked away in her workshop, she's most certainly seen in armor.
Onuma has come a long way from where she was. She is not as icy as she was before, and has warmed up to meeting others, dependent upon their initial impression on her. There are moments when she may seem distant or appears to be reflecting on a thought, but it doesn't happen as often as it used to, though sometimes it may be her trying to see a situation from all sides. Her ears and tail are the most visible indicator of how she may be feeling, however, as they become animated when she feels strongly about something.

- ■ "That girl is trouble with the Wood Wailers." - Gridanian Villager
- ■"Oh! Onuma! Smart lass; would love to know where she even got a hint of her bargaining knowledge. Money's a hard thing to come by these days. She learned well." - Ul'dahn Civilian
- ■ "Watch out for that one; a strong fighter and her words bite even harder if ye don't watch yer tongue. She's fiercer than a couerl." - Bloodsands Participant
- ■ "I never got to thank her after she intervened those monstrous Amal'jaa, ransacking my caravan and threatening to steal my poor chocobos!" -Foreign Merchant
- ■ "I heard she was responsible for the Roost losing a window." - Gridanian Resident
- ■ "She made it up to Second-Lieutenant, but she doesn't look very proud of herself. Like she's scared. Who'd be afraid of that?" -Flame Private
- ■ "Her father own plantation. Traded with us once. Then never again." -Unnamed Tribal Keeper
- ■ "A kid was hurt by her idiocy, throwing weapons in the dead of night in the Roost. Found embedded in a tree, it was! Fool girl." - Gridanian Wood Wailer
- ■ "Her friend came back one night, lookin' like a bleedin' maimed corpse. Not sure what happened to 'em, what havin' not seen 'em since he lost his eye, but people 'round here be whisperin' about her. Say she did it." -Passing Adventurer in Gridania
- ■ "Her pop and kid died shortly after hell rained from the sky. Coincidentally, so did a party of four Wood Wailers. Of course, no one knows what happened that day, but sometimes I wonder when I see her in the city. Who knows; there's still a missing man out there." -Gridanian Resident
- ■ "Aye. I heard o' her. Don't know what much I can tell ye, but I think she's somethin' to hide. No one stays quiet fer that long and don't have a tale to share." -Wandering Adventurer
"She is the greatest! She's smart, and pretty and I bet she holds alot more secrets then I do. I will grow up to be just like her and one day I'm so going to ask about those secrets. But for now I'll just hide over here and watch her." -Surilian Blu
"Her? She's a sorry excuse of a blade maiden. But then again I can see talent there. And her clothing colors are all so wrong. Waste I say! Tragic waste. But I suppose it could be worse. But then again we have something in common...I can smell it." -Liana Blu
"Onuma? I can't quite confirm it, but I've heard musings that her mercenary work has the makings of myth. She and Lotan'to even assaulted a Garlean garrison alone, if the rumors ring true." -Kodaro Ba'rococo
"She sounds a leader, looks a leader. She and her lover. I don't know how she fell in with this troupe, but I feel safe with my back to her, at least. Again, my expectations are shaken, in what to expect from a Moonkeeper. Also, she wears a warrior's armor; I am not eager to fall in her ill favor." -Solelle Frilaix
"Lotan'to's passing has changed something deep within our Onuma; if she loses control of it, it may consume her. Perhaps if I can help her in even a fraction of the ways she has helped me, we will be able to overcome this struggle together." -Dawson Colwell
"Since Y'adebh was taken from me, I'd not thought to have a family, again. Not like that. Onuma has proven to be a sister born apart from me, and I shall do all in my power to honour this sentiment. Knowing I've someone I might confide in....certain, such a circumstance as our meeting must be significant." -Y'lyfriel Sikah
"First impression? She's a Warrior, through and through. Now, though? I'm not so sure that's all there is to her. Time will tell, I guess." -Alex Castell
"Oh, Onuma. She always tries to project a rough exterior, and she certainly has a potent bite to her words. But you should see her when she thinks she's alone; always playing with those little clockwork toys I make her. She's surrounded by the pets I find for her. I know her better than anyone, even herself. Hehe." -Lotan'to Jiub
"Onuma? Hmm.. She may seem scary, but she's really not! She's a nice, kind person under all her lack of smiles! She's really, REALLY sweet! You just gotta give'r a chance!" -Rah'na Lihzeh
"Tha' poor girl's go' a lot on'r mind. She's a young'n though, n' far be it from me t'tell her what t'do with'r life. She's strong though... N'she'll make it through, m'sure." -O'vitah Nunh
"The two times I met her, it was always pleasant. I wouldn't mind talking to her again, honestly. Maybe over coffee or tea or whatever she likes to drink. Maybe she can even give me a pointer or two with using a sword." -Sizha'to Chalahko
"She's got talons, I swear. She took her gloves off one day and I saw them - she even had a nail file that she used to sharpen them!" -Lynn'wo Vahnal
