The Woman, The Myth, The Legend
Alicia is a middle child in a fairly large family. After some years attempting to toil away within Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern's mines, as all in her family had for at least some amount of time, she quickly veered away from the actual physical aspects of things toward more behind the scenes endeavors such as process, policy, and eventually research. Research would be where she quickly gained prominence within the company and soon found herself whisked away to the company's research division. Unfortunately, after a heated disagreement over her contract that ended in a lot of vandalism and property damage, Alicia found herself sans employment. Shortly after stopping off in Limsa Lominsa she heard of a Free Company that had recently fought and won against Leviathan. She was surprised to soon find herself asking them for a job and further surprised by the leader's interest.
Since joining, she's found herself increasingly disenchanted with only being stuck in her room, staring at tomes until her brain liquefies. She has since been seeking out training among friends and the guilds of Eorzea, which she's certain is a terrible idea.
Alicia has a head of long, red hair and skin that could said to be sun-kissed if we assume the sun is a very aggressive kisser. She stands at 5 fulm, 6 ilms and holds a surprisingly fit physique for such a bookworm, which she can thank Ferai's ceaseless training regiment for. She has a minor, light scar on her left calf from a mining accident. Her sense of fashion is largely lacking and tends to be based more around utility than attractiveness.
Alicia deals with most of her problems with humor. She's socially anxious, cynical, and obsessive, which she tends to laugh off with sarcasm and ridiculous comments. Despite this, she's stubborn to her core and borders on arrogant. She's convinced she knows better until proven otherwise. While she is quick to listen, she's also quick to dismiss advice or information she can't agree with.

- Others may have seen or heard of Onuma if:
- ■ They were a participant in the Bloodsands. She caused a ruckus concerning her identity a few years ago.
- ■They are - or were - a part of the Gladiators' Guild. She will likely speak well of the place.
- ■They are Sultansworn or are a free-paladin that trained under them, like herself. Onuma will often speak fondly of or look at them with respect.
- ■They live or have lived in Gridania. She gets plenty of wary and nasty looks there.
- ■They are a client or an interested party that previously commissioned weapons and armor from her.
- ■They are native to Thanalan and Ul'dah. She assisted travelers and merchants across dangerous roads when she could.
- ■They are enlisted in the Immortal Flames; Onuma was given an honorary title for working alongside them.
- ■They are members of certain craft guilds. Onuma took lessons from several of them.
- ■ They are enlisted or have worked for the Maelstrom. Because of her company's ties to them and the 81st's living location, she has moved much of her work to Vylbrand.
- ■ They have affiliations with any of the three grand companies; a false accusation has led to damage of her free company's reputation.
- ■ They are a merchant or trader of the city-states, namely Ul'dah. She dealt with them often, and provided as high quality goods as she could offer. Because of the damage to her free company's reputation, opinions might have soured based on word of mouth.

LETS DO SOME HISTORY SHIT HERE YO Her parents rose to the heights of middle-management with the Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern, which instilled in them a deep loyalty to the company. As such, every one of their children has worked for the company at some point or another and many continue |
- ■ "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
- ■ "Unbelievable! Dealing with Garleans... she and everything she owns should have been tossed in with the lot! Burned alongside the heathens!" -Scowling Ul'dahn Merchant
- ■ "She wouldn't really do that, would she? Help the people in black and red? Pa and ma looked up to her, said she and her friends saved them..." -Young Gridanian
- ■ "Don't be askin' me, mate. I just follow me orders. Never a good thing puttin' the Empire in the same sentence with a name under me own nation, tho'." -Maelstrom recruit
- ■ "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
"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
"You're asking me about Onuma? She's great! I love her to bits, she's quite literally my family. Sometimes she can be a bit bossy, but it's nothing sitting on her won't solve... Uh... You, probably shouldn't though, she may stab -you-." -Fen'rin Taveck
"That one is far less stupid than I originally thought. She keeps quiet when needed, which is a trait that I have come to admire when dealing with the 81st Company. It is obvious that she cares more for her allies than herself. Whether that is foolish or not, I am yet undecided." -Trisselle Rondelet
"Onuma is family to me in the sense that I always know I will have her support when I need it. She has helped me through some of the hardest moments in my life, and for that I will be eternally grateful." -Dawson Colwell
"When she ain't smilin', she looks fierce as seven 'ells, but she 'as a kind 'eart. Ain't another in whole world ah'd tell me deepest secrets t' an' know she'd keep 'em safe." -Ferai Caolann
"The truth of it? My worry for her is as strong as my faith in her every prowess. After witnessing her...her 'injury' in Coerthas, I have been haunted by the wonder of what truly occurred that sun. Regardless, she is my closest family. That which I would give anything to protect, and will stand with until the very end." -Y'lyfriel Sikah
"Miss Onuma is so beautiful, inside and outside! I hope one day she will tell me stories! Think of all the love she has seen in all of her experience..." - Mizuki Hagane
"Kitten? What about her? Quit asking me questions....you mess with her, be ready to deal with me....: - Vyncent Tanner
