Appearance & Personality

Long and lithe, Anu'ra's body holds the hue of a clouded moon. That paled grey is framed by the soft white of his hair, holding faint undertones of blue. He paints his face most often in lavender, drawing upon the intensity of his moonlit eyes. His fingers are long, with abnormally short nails for a miqo'te- clipped intentionally. He has a fondness of pale blues, but finds himself mostly dressing in dark shades accented by sharper colors. He is most comfortable in a lancer's armor, but privately enjoys the compression of tight leathers of minimal coverage.
Still adjusting to the world outside the tribe, Anu'ra struggles between his desire to 'do as the Romans do' and retain his clans expectations. He is keenly curious of people in general, content to observe the actions of passing patrons of various establishments, captivated by the variety of their individuality and freedom. Anu'ra is a social soul, whose initial reserve evaporates shortly amid conversation. He is an optimist, striving to the see the logic of every opinion, even if it varies from his own. Acts of prejudice, injustice and belittlement are quick to heat his anger.

Biography

Childhood

A fifth son born to a matriarch without successor, who was never again to conceive, the Anunnaki had found themselves at a crossroads. Had Menphina removed her love from them, that no daughter had been born for succession? Anu'ra grew in the midst of the clans decline. Rumors spread of the Anunnaki's misfortune, ebbing the desire for trade and kinship from other neighboring tribes. Perhaps because his birth seemed to herald this, Anu'ra would never receive much of his mothers affection.
Neither embraced nor rejected by the tribes majority, Anu'ra was left to his own amusements, always hopeful that the next morn might bring a visit from one of his nomadic brothers. Each of the eldest three would share with Anu'ra their knowledge, and he devoured the attention. Anu'to guided his hand in gathering, tracking, and living off the land. Anu'li taught how to craft weapons and build shelter, but from Anu'a he learned how to wield the lance, and these visits were secretly his favorite.

Early History

With little care given to his activities, Anu'ra found himself free to explore the vast forests of the Twelves-wood. Observing the people of Gridania became a favored pastime, and it was during one of these curious surveys that he became captivated by a young Elezen archer. Initially brief interactions became planned excursions, and even after an ugly skirmish (which resulted in the loss of the Elezens keen sight) the pair remained fixed in each-others lives. During the time spent in his company, Anu'ras' head was filled with tales of Ishgard, from which the boy hailed. Stories of chivalry, high-houses and Dravanian hordes defeated in epic battles by legendary Dragoons. These tales filled the young miqo'te with dreams of attaining such status, living among the clouds in the Holy See.
