Most people consider A'quila a beggar- which in some cases. She is. Others get the right first thought and become wary. She's a thief; and she will pickpocket you if you let your guard down.
Being so young yet; and fresh to the life of theft and being a thief; she's still learning to hone those skills, and often times her attempts to steal end up with her running into the back alleys. Using them to lose the people chasing her.
Often; she's found alone and on her own. Currently; she's found at the side of V'aar Tia. Working with him as an assistant. The end result of pick-pocketing gone wrong. Working for the Sister of Lyyre, she's currently under the wing of the older Tia; being mentored in other skills and traits as opposed to theft and pick-pocketing.
Behavior and Personality
A'quila is at first-reserved, bashful, and very quiet. Usually thinking and calculating the world around her, constantly learning and adapting to new situations. She's nervous and not very welcoming to new people. Over time though; she eventually will relax and calm. Her personality usually playful, sassy, and impish.
She has a bad habit of fidgeting. (Especially when nervous or on edge.) be it from her fingers moving, to her leg jiggling. She's constantly in motion. Despite her skittish traits, if listened to close enough, often she hums or sings to herself. Having a very wide variety of lullabies and songs.
(Rarely,if caught unaware she'll sing out fully. Able to sing quite well- she's usually to shy to do so in front of others.)

Combat
To sum it up in a word: Inexperienced. She'd sooner run than fight, and when she does fight- It's trickery and ways to confuse or blind an opponent so she can get away. One major trick up her sleeve is she has a powder she'll throw at people. Sylph powder mixed with spices designed to launch into an enemy's face and blind them along with clouding their sense of smell (Since a lot of Miqo'te track with scent as well)
Usually fast on her feet and a quick wit; she'll often try to outrun, or outsmart an opponent as opposed to physical violence. When she is pushed to extremes; she has two stabbers she'll use to threaten, or try to stab with.
Occupation, Skills, and Pastimes
A simple homeless thief Currently learning the Ins and Outs of working along side V'aar/ working for the Daughter of Lyyre. Her skills include mainly working with her hands. She adores machines, weapons, and armor. She's aspiring to become a Machinist, but also wants to learn Blacksmithing, and how to make Armor/Weapons.
She loves music, and often will sing to herself or hum. (Even more so before she falls asleep- literally will sing her own lullabies to get to sleep.) Despite the thievery, she actually has a high work ethic but has a hard time finding anyone to accept her for work due to the damage on her arms.
Favorite past-time? Eating and napping.
Past
A'quila doesn't overly like talking about her past; her mother and father being very touchy topics which usually will make her just go silent.
Her father is (Or was, she's not sure now) the Nuhn of her tribe; Her mother passed away when she was around 14, from there she's lived on her own since. Taking up odd jobs and living on her own as a form of wanderer. It was then she found pretending to be a boy was safer, and easier than being a girl. Thus, her androgyny developed once she hit puberty.
Wanting to become someone who works with metal (in any form) she began collecting scrap metal and parts. From there in her stay in Gridania, she found an old abandoned forge in the Shroud. Beginning to use it and try to hone her skills, one day the forge collapsed; pinning her arms between the stone, and the red hot metal and coals. Luckily; her hands were spared since she had on heavy leather-gloves.
But from the wrists up to her elbows; she suffered serious burns. (She was very lucky she didn't break bones.) Having her arms heal; it was then she was cast aside, ostracized, and rejected for work. People looking down upon her for her disfigurement. Over time; she fell into depression, rejected/resented her belief in the 12.
| ♥♥●V'aar Tia: Currently working by his side and tightly nestled under his wing. Learning and growing rapidly with him.--recently, he's opened the doorway to more adult thoughts, actually showing an attraction. In turn she's slowly budded and attraction to him in turn. | ●L'Vi Lyyre: Meeting L'Vi, she's highly intimidated by the woman. The looming threat of being sold off to the brothels looming heavy over A'quila's head--(saved, due to V'aar stepping in saying he wanted to keep her as his apprentice.) She's unsure what to make of Vi. All she knows is that the female reeks of wine and perfume, and wants to avoid her as much as possible. | ♥♥●Flynt Reddard: Meeting Flynt after trying to steal his gil, the notorious fighter took pity on her and in a way managed to seat himself as a big brother figure/mild girl-crush. Unlike some of the rumors she's heard about his savage ways; she only sees a kind (if not confused) man. Rapidly growing to adore the Hyur and see him as one of her only few, and closest friends. |
| ●E'vrett Tia: One of the ones that helped in catching A'quila when she pickpocketed V'aar. He was the one to hint to V'aar about taking her as an assistant. Originally, V'aar had the same idea to sell A'quila off for a profit. Realizing it had been E'vrett's idea to bring her to L'Vi and get her to work with V'aar and L'Vi; she grew to respect him. Plus, finding E'vrett was slightly older than she is; she found kinship in the fact that the two were within the same age-range. | !●Grish'a Zolnerowich : A Keeper Miqo'te with a very heavy,thick accent that's still learning the common-language around Eorzea. Found by L'Vi and V'aar and assigned to be A'quila's tutor in machine-works. A'quila grew a fast liking for the flamboyant eccentric Keeper. She grew to admire him and like him enough that she gave him the first airship she ever made (Note:It's a toy-sized airship.) | ●---- : ... |

| ●S'honji "Hayakawa" Nunh : Having S'hon find out she was a female; he got a bit too handsy for her liking. She's not sure what to make of him, and in turn would rather avoid him than confront him again. Slowly; She's caught him in Ul'Dah a few times and spoken more with him, thus making her calm down but she still doesn't fully trust him. | ●---- : ... |
