A few moons after her 13th name day, soldiers from the Garlean Empire arrived at the island. They too had come to study the strange phenomena. While the Sauveterre's motives were academic, the Garleans were attempting to weaponize the phenomena. He mother hide away their most important research to prevent its theft at the hands of the soldiers. Once the soldiers discovered them, they demanded the family hand over their research. The family refused not wanting to give the soldiers something that could be used to harm people. Frustrated, the commander ordered his men to execute the family and take everything at the camp.

Alex survived the attack with a sword wound to the gut and a slash to the face. She kept herself from succumbing to her woulds thanks to what little healing magic she knew. It was 8 suns before help arrived for the orphaned girl. The Dawnchaser arrived to make its regular supply drop and found the horrifying scene. The LeClair's took Alex back to port where she recovered from her injuries.
 
  
The LeClair's adopted Alex and gave her a home upon the Dawnchaser. Over the years aboard the ship, she learned various hand to hand combat techniques from the crew. She learned how to use firearms from the chief gunner and this started a life long passion. She took up studying alchemy to make black powder and blacksmithing to create her own set of knives and a rifle. Any extra gil she earned went toward books.

At the age of 19, the Dawnchaser ran into a Garlean ship and fled into a massive storm out at sea. Whether it was the storm or the persistent attacks from the Garlean ship, the Dawnchaser sank. Alex, Sophie, Zoe, and a half dozen crew members survived but Geoffroy and Remy were not as lucky. Alex joined the Maelstrom a few moons later to help support her adopted sisters. She saw this as an opportunity to finally get revenge on the deaths of her two families on the Garleans. Her adopted sisters would  follow suite and join up as well.

The sisters were all present at the Battle of Carteneau. On the final day of the descent of the lesser moon of Dalamud, the sisters were in the thick of the fighting. Alex tried to get her sisters to retreat but communications were down. The might of the elder primal took the last of her family from her on that day. On that day she became known as cursed by the surviving members of her unit. This nickname caused few people to want to work with her as they were afraid that her 'curse' would kill them. She felt ostracized and left the Maelstrom after she recovered. Not knowing what to do and wishing she had died in the battle she returned to the sea.

H I S T O R Y


Alex was born to Bianca and Conrad "Kurt" Sauveterre, a scholar couple from Sharlayan. The family traveled all around the world thanks to the couple's studies into unusual aetherial phenomena. After Alex 's 8th name day, her parents tracked one of these phenomena to an island in the northern Rhotano Sea. The family set up their Research Camp and began their studies of the strange aether flows of the area. During a visit to Limsa Lominsa, the family met Captain Geoffroy LeClair, owner of the cargo ship Dawnchaser. He sailed with his family aboard the ship with his wife, Remy, serving as the ship's navigator. Their daughters, Sophie and Zoe, became fast friends with Alex. The LeClair's would become their regular suppliers making the trek to the island once a moon. This agreement would continue for 40 moons.


A few moons after her 13th name day, soldiers from the Garlean Empire arrived at the island. They too had come to study the strange phenomena. While the Sauveterre's motives were academic, the Garleans were attempting to weaponize the phenomena. He mother hide away their most important research to prevent its theft at the hands of the soldiers. Once the soldiers discovered them, they demanded the family hand over their research. The family refused not wanting to give the soldiers something that could be used to harm people. Frustrated, the commander ordered his men to execute the family and take everything at the camp.


Alex survived the attack with a sword wound to the gut and a slash to the face. She kept herself from succumbing to her woulds thanks to what little healing magic she knew. It was 8 suns before help arrived for the orphaned girl. The Dawnchaser arrived to make its regular supply drop and found the horrifying scene. The LeClair's took Alex back to port where she recovered from her injuries. The LeClair's adopted Alex and gave her a home upon the Dawnchaser. Over the years aboard the ship, she learned various hand to hand combat techniques from the crew. She learned how to use firearms from the chief gunner and this started a life long passion. She took up studying alchemy to make black powder and blacksmithing to create her own set of knives and a rifle. Any extra gil she earned went toward books.


At the age of 19, the Dawnchaser ran into a Garlean ship and fled into a massive storm out at sea. Whether it was the storm or the persistent attacks from the Garlean ship, the Dawnchaser sank. Alex, Sophie, Zoe, and a half dozen crew members survived but Geoffroy and Remy were not as lucky. Alex joined the Maelstrom a few moons later to help support her adopted sisters.
