Y'uraq Tia (3rd Sun of the 2nd Umbral Moon), .....
Contents
Basic Info
Y'uraq is a young, and spirited Sun Seeker miqo'te currently living his life to the fullest while finding his purpose in it. From researching tomestones and translated texts to the possible locations of lost Allagan artifacts, to indulging his creative side as an aspiring artisan, to braving in the risks only the life of an independent adventurer-scholar could provide, or even just plain honing his sparring skills at the Grindstone Tournaments every week.
Though bashful at times, Y'uraq is generally friendly to those he's come across in his travels. As far as doing whatever he feels is right for those he cares for, he is loyal to a fault. No matter how certain the dangers may be, Y'uraq has had no hesitation putting himself in harm's way and stand his ground with those who can't stand on their own, or mend their wounds through conjury and lesser healing magic with the best of his abilities, should circumstances allow it.
Y'uraq has no love for unnecessary conflict, but his travels have time and time again faced him with situations where his combat prowess is all that could make the difference between his journey's end, or living to see another day.

Appearance & Personality
At just an ilm over six fulms, Y'uraq stands slightly taller than the average male sun seeker miqo'te. His darker complexion suggest he is indeed, no stranger to the sun. As tall as he may be, Y'uraq's physical strength isn't as strong at it could be, as he never recalled being a Nunh before losing his memories. As limited as his strength may be, he continues to show gradual improvements since training to wield a sword and shield under the gladiator's guild, making himself just sufficient enough to train under the sultanguard. His high spirits and energies radiate through his youthful face, with sharp, dark amber eyes partly glinting in the light, the rest is concealed by his dark hairs at some parts of his face, while leaving others revealed to onlookers. Two longer bangs hanging down on both opposite sides of his head with his pointed furry ears slightly leaning toward the back of his head. With enrlarged front fangs that sometimes poke through his smiles
When he's not upset over the uncertainties of his past or choosing a focus study for his research, Y'uraq is generally upbeat and welcoming around his friends and strangers alike, until they give him a reason not to. To his dismay, Y'uraq is more driven by his emotions than by logical means, justifying his sensitive tendencies as "instincts". Call it as he might, it does very little to mask his true nature from those he's tried to convince.
Since his travels, Y'uraq has been advanced on by both men and women along his journey, which has also re-kindled some vain, and border-line effeminate tendencies about his appearance, not also limited to his interests in jewelry and fine embroidery, which soon protruded into his discovered interest in fine, and elegant fashion.
In times of confrontations and certain conflict, Y'uraq's cheerful and harmless mindset slowly shifts into feral tendencies. Focused, fearless, and savage in his strikes when locked in combat against his foes. Though his fellows and witnesses also found him to unhesitating to lay himself in harm's way to fight and protect those that fight at his side, even if he's not carrying a shield to protect himself with. Despite his lacking physical strength, Y'uraq has been noted by witnesses to fight with ferocity and calculated precision when armed with a sword and shield.
Fashion
Y'uraq's flamboyance is crystal clear through his style of fashion and glamour as well. Preferring to put style with some subtle elegance into both his casual and battle attire, while also keeping comfort and practicality in mind. Y'uraq prefers to have his own clothes, armor, and jewelry made to his to meet his own personal tastes. He is very often seen donning trinkets on some place or other on his person.
Whether it's an excursion into sahagin territory, or fighting off Garlean remnants in La Noscea, or even if it's something as simple as gathering herbs around La Noscea's wilderness, or a night of leisure, Y'uraq likes to dress to impress.
Occupation
Since his travels begun, Y'uraq has delved into almost all sorts of task that would keep him from starvation, or sleep under the stars every night. As his swordsmanship improved, Y'uraq has been able to offer his services as an accomplished sellsword to fellow travelers, scholars and excursionists alike, which has earned him even more success over the following moons, and a fairly comfortable home to call his own as well as getting to enjoy some of life's leisures every now and again.
In his personal time, Y'uraq has also developed an deep curiosity for the mysteries, legends, wonders, and dangers found over Eorzea's past and present. In result, he spends much of his time researching and planning possible excursions to ancient ruins, dig sites, and trips libraries from Limsa, to Gridania, to Ul'dah. Y'uraq's love for books and knowledge has earned him a special interest scholarly pursuits.

The blazing sun was high over the wastelands of Thanalan as a lost wanderer made his way through the wilderness with nothing but the dirt and dust covered clothes on his back. He made his way past the dry fields of Eastern Thanalan, still trying to make sense of his current circumstance, he was unable to remember anything prior to waking in the middle of nowhere. Having no idea where he was, who he was or he got there, he was lost and confused. Before long he spotted an unusual cluster of tall domed buildings and towers in the distance.

Echoes of the Void
(Jan 14, 2015 - February 8, 2015 - 2.5) - Seeking to find a greater purpose in his new life, Y'uraq turns to the distant past in search to path his future. ...
As Y'uraq began his days among more established mercenaries, his simple joys as a sellsword were diminished as he began to realize the little meaning behind being mercenaries in a sea of adventurers, sellswords and mercenaries alike. And even though the pay afforded him some more personal luxuries, it did little to make him forget about the mystery that haunted his private moments, his fears regarding the possibilities he imagined about what could had led him to forget everything before the day he awoke in the middle of Thanalan. His crewmates noted flashes of rage and savagery in his combat, unable to recall certain details himself. He sought to focus his feral tendencies, and extend his talents from a sword and board, to a man-at-arms under the guidance of the marauders guild. Though Y'uraq achieved gaining control over his mysterious inner rage, it did little to quell his clouded mind.
As his concerns grew, he looked to his own training in conjury in hopes of finding a balance as a healing hand, than a marauding sellsword. Under the guidance of his friend and crew made, Rahn'a Lihzeh, Y'uraq attempted to meditate alongside his new guide. However, his guide sensed much very clouded mind. Rahn'a deemed that Y'uraq would not be able to improve his limited studies in conjury until he frees himself from what keeping him from being able to improve.
- Y'uraq begins a scholarly apprenticeship under fellow Crewmate and Commanding officer, Ralamano Nulumano
- Y'uraq has been overwhelmed researching over a lost Allagan artifact for the past moon, only to find dead ends as every scholar and archeologist from the Sons of St. Coinach deemed it as mere "fable". Regardless, Y'uraq has been making frequent trips between La Noscea and Mor Dhona, in search of anything that might suggest otherwise. His trips have usually included a night or two in Gridania on the way.
- In his efforts to understand the links between Allag and the voidsent as well as their potential dangers, Y'uraq has enlisted under the Thaumaturge's guild guidance in Ul'dah
- Y'uraq begins to study the fundamentals of thaumaturgy in hopes of being able to start making connections between the voidsent and the ancient Allagans
- Y'uraq continues his pursuits as he begins to make connections, he is soon disturbed by his discoveries
- Y'uraq decides to discontinue his research in fear of the things he uncovered
A Local in a Familiar Land
(February 8, 2015 - April 23, 2015 - 2.5) - A second journey across Eorzea turned leisure to self-reflection.
Under the advice of his fellows of the 81st, Y'uraq took a much needed break from his overwhelmingly daunting research and took back to the roads of Eorzea. Unlike his first known experience as a lost wanderer, Y'uraq was able to revisit familiar sights from his first journey with ease. In addition, he was able to spend more time, further familiarizing himself personally with each regions and their respective city-states, while also taking interest in new hobbies and skills. From harnessing his rage into raw power with the marauders guild and learning the art of patience from the master fishermen of La Noscea, to perfecting his oversight with archery and further appreciation for the land through botany in the Twelveswood, to honing his physical combat through pugilism and mining once he returned to Thanalan.
Despite his efforts to distract himself with leisure travel and activities, Y'uraq's second trip across Eorzea didn't unfold without some reminders of his first journey as a stranger in a strange land. Despite his own past hardships, Y'uraq has been able to look back for the first time since that fateful day and realizing how far he's made it mostly by his instincts, and through the guidance of some kind strangers he's come across in his travels up to that point. His feelings of accomplishment were cut shot as Y'uraq began to realize the mystery that surrounded his circumstances still haunted his present life. Regardless of the unfortunate circumstances that still afflict him, Y'uraq seized his present situation and took extended stays in each region, exploring sights and places he may have missed or overlooked during his first journey, to mingling and interacting with more of the locals, and even partaking in events and festivities happening during his stays. Despite this previous fortune with side quests and encounters in his first journey, none of his new experiences availed more lost memories for Y'uraq, his efforts have been for naught.
In result, Y'uraq felt more discouraged than ever before, in no real hurry to report back to his crewmates in La Noscea. He entered through the Gates of Thal, unconsciously re-enacting his first moments in the city, only the night was setting in his present time. Y'uraq decided to wander through the city one last time before making his way to the airship landing high above the city. He wandered the busy streets, things seemed a slight more hectic than he originally remembered as well. Brass Blades roamed the city in greater numbers than before as well. As Y'uraq continued wandering across the city, he continued to feel more at home in the heart of Thanalan, than he did anywhere else in Eorzea.
As this familiar confidence came to him, he became more affirmed that perhaps he might found himself in Thanalan for a reason that fateful day. It wasn't long until he convinced himself he would find all the information in the one place he never thought to look. And even though his own decision to resign from his crew in La Noscea wasn't an easy one to make, it was clear to him that his answers, whereabouts of his kin, and his true calling are all waiting in the deserts of Thanalan.
