<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:12px; color:#585350;font-family:Georgia;">Sleepy is reasonably suspicious of most who approach her, preferring to make the first move: having spent the majority of her life as an untraceable ghost living on the peripherals of society, people approaching her usually meant trouble. To those that pass her initial appraisal, however, she is a warm and caring individual, always concerning herself with the welfare of others she considers even acquaintances. Those who have seen her off her guard are usually treated to a showing of a deep and enthusiastic love of life, an aloof and easily flattered sort that handles her burdens with ease. The few that manage to draw her ire, however, see a much different woman.
+
<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:12px; color:#585350;font-family:Georgia;">Flame Sergeant Moda'zi Jadu (simply Jadu to his friends) is, at first blush, an overly shy and perpetually uncertain young man. When one gets to know him, he remains this -- though one may witness him throw a punch that absolutely nobody of his demeanour has any business throwing. Though somewhat of an oddity in the Second Brigade due to his dual citizenship (which he claims is the result of a torturous, almost comically archaic legal process), certain circumstances prevented his enlistment in the Twin Adders, a topic he seems to be sensitive about.
  
Sleepy's body is covered in a variety of small nicks and scars, the scar along her right side being the most noticeable and nastiest-looking one. She is athletic, loves climbing and balancing on things, and enjoys the company of those she considers friends. She has a nearly insatiable curiosity which can sometimes land her in trouble, but one that lends itself well to any pursuits of justice she finds herself embarking on. She's little love for most authority, having seen enough of the worst of Ul'dahn society to convince her that her more vigilante (and at times, criminal) aims are for the benefit of the community.
+
Jadu has possessed a moderate speech impediment his entire life, and speaks with a noticeable stuttering, which worsens the more emotional he becomes. Despite the usual self-consciousness one would expect from this, Jadu has no qualms about his affliction.
  
Sleepy's drawl is the end result of numerous dialects and accents she's been exposed to mashing together into a horrific amalgam. Rarely, she is heard to speak in a much more scholarly manner: a holdover from the past.
+
He is known to get along quite well with his mother.

<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:12px; color:#585350;font-family:Georgia;">Sleepy, at first glance, seems a contradiction: a heavily-armed Flame Sergeant with a laid-back, almost demure demeanor and a penchant for bad jokes. Rumors would tell of a woman on the hunt, a self-styled vigilante wielding arcane powers, who allows nothing to stand in the way of helping her fellows and righting wrongs. Still others tell of an aloof, clumsy and melodramatic miqo'te who is a horrible flirt and possessing zero social grace of her own. All that is certain is Sleepy seems perfectly comfortable with the resultant obscurity surrounding her, wearing it as a cloak.

<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:12px; color:#585350;font-family:Georgia;">More on Jadu soon.
 
 
A long time ago, Sleepy was just another orphan being communally raised in various Thanalan refugee camps. Her childhood saw her developing a rather broad set of skills: climbing things, stealing things, and lying being chief among them. Despite the unsavoury connotations, she was determined to do some good with it, trying her best to help ease the burdens of life in Thanalan. She eventually made a few like-minded friends, and together they formed the Coeurl Kissers, a troupe of bandits, thieves and other talented sorts known primarily for disrupting wealthy merchant caravans before the Calamity. Afterwards, they broadened their horizons considerably (after some time spent scattered in the chaos): kidnapping, extortion, and more brazen acts of theft being their forte. Sleepy began to find herself becoming best friends with a fellow bandit and miqo'te woman: a nameless conjurer who she found herself spending many nights alongside.
 
 
 
Eventually, their group was betrayed by one of its senior members, Sleepy being the only survivor by way of her best friend's sacrifice. Sleepy seems hesitant towards discussing the particulars of what followed, only referring to it as a "closed chapter of her life". What is clear is that she spent upwards of two summers in Coerthas, became a Dark Knight, and found her way back to Ul'dah, where she enlisted in the Immortal Flames and met new friends: Shiori, a demure sketch artist; Majh, a mysterious old man who has assumed a somewhat fatherly role to Sleepy; and Jayne, one of Sleepy's closest friends at the time. Sleepy's struggle to come to terms with the obvious traumas of her experiences would see all three involved, eventually culminating in an event that left her broken, battered, and at the bottom of a cliff... but the keeper of her own soul once more.
 
 
 
In her recovery, she took up tinkering with Magitek and sent in various pleas to be re-accepted into the Flames: Eventually, her old squadmates represented her interests and pushed for her return after something scandalous involving the squadron's replacement Chief Sergeant. After her body and aether were both mended, she returned to Ul'dah a new woman... but there was still one thing at the back of her mind, refusing to be forgotten.
 
 
 
She wanted to get back to work. And so she did, after a fashion.
 
 
 
Motivated by her past struggles, she has transferred herself to a reserve company (amidst protests from her squadmates) to give herself more time to study what she has become. She is currently investigating other Dark Knights in an attempt to produce an easily accessible compendium, to prevent any from having to live through the same harrowing experiences she had, entirely without guidance. She entertains the formation of an order of sorts, but keeps it firmly planted in the back of her mind.

Current Residence: Unlisted property, Gridania

Occupation: Sergeant, Immortal Flames

Patron Deity: Menphina

Alignment: Lawful Good

Personality/Basic Info
Flame Sergeant Moda'zi Jadu (simply Jadu to his friends) is, at first blush, an overly shy and perpetually uncertain young man. When one gets to know him, he remains this -- though one may witness him throw a punch that absolutely nobody of his demeanour has any business throwing. Though somewhat of an oddity in the Second Brigade due to his dual citizenship (which he claims is the result of a torturous, almost comically archaic legal process), certain circumstances prevented his enlistment in the Twin Adders, a topic he seems to be sensitive about.

Jadu has possessed a moderate speech impediment his entire life, and speaks with a noticeable stuttering, which worsens the more emotional he becomes. Despite the usual self-consciousness one would expect from this, Jadu has no qualms about his affliction.

He is known to get along quite well with his mother.

Exploring.
Upholding the law.
Sandwiches.
Small groups and quiet places.

Dislikes

Overt bigotry.
Thunderstorms.
