===Childhood===
He lost most of the memories from his childhood, his earliest memory being at 12 years of age. He awoke to hear spirits crying from his surroundings, but could not figure out where from. He wandered for days trying to find it until he was discovered by Master Gekkai, and taken into his village. He remained there for five years before escaping to Eorzea because of the Garlean Empire's siege on Doma, which he believed to claim the life of his master, and his adoptive parents

He thought nothing of it until the spirits started crying out. He ran in the direction of the cries, only to find a Black Mage practicing his spells. He shouted for him to stop, only to be attacked himself.

After he was nearly killed by the mage, J'ikan decided to find a way to harness the spirits he could hear. He soon discovered ninjutsu, and sought a teacher in Eorzea.

He decided to use the spirits to defeat those who would endanger them, as well as research just what they are and why he could hear them. During his journey, he met M'dhori Rhea and studied alongside her for a time.

He found some work as a calendar model, which caused him to meet Kehda Mercer. She would serve to be his teacher in the years to come, and his caretaker for the years after. He eventually left to study the spirits which he had heard for so many years, hoping to unlock their secrets to strengthen his ninjutsu. While traveling to Gridania, he met another Miqo'te by the name of M'dhori Rhea, who could hear the aether in the air. They became fast friends, and even helped each other with their studies. They eventually parted ways, but his knowledge had grown from his time with her. To this day he still travels, studying the world, and the spirits that inhabit it.
