'''Evien mal Bellveil''' is a Miqo'te from the imperial-conquered kingdom of Dalmasca, but has "betrayed" his countrymen (not that he sees it that way) to happily work as a mal-ranked researcher for Garlemald.

==History==
Evien was born in Rabanastre, capital of the prosperous trade nation of Dalmasca. A natural-born genius in the ways of manipulating aether, in his boyhood he was found by a visiting Sharlayan and invited to the island nation for schooling. In Sharlayan he became an expert in the field of aetherochemistry (using aether to modify lifeforms), so much so that when Dalmasca was conquered by Garlemald during Evien's young adulthood he was recruited into the IVth Legion's science division and quickly climbed the ranks to mal. He was happy to do so, as Garlemald's funding and resources gave him more opportunities than he could ever achieve otherwise.
+
Originally X'Evien Tia and hailing from Sharlayan, when he was younger had attended the Studium and graduated as an Archon. X'Evien quickly became a renowned expert in aetherology and the manipulation of souls. When he met a young woman named Celhi Sheol, he moved with her the the Shroud and changed his name, loving her enough to embrace the Keeper of the Moon culture. Their daughter Invia was born shortly after in the South Shroud.
  
Despite not being native Garleans Evien's rank afforded his family a nice life in the IVth Legion's base of operations, the port city Valnain, because of Legatus Gabranth's openness to other races, though his wife Kallen died of illness shortly after giving birth to their daughter Invia. Evien was often seen as a traitor to the Dalmascan cause, but he does not see it that way; after all, has not the level of technology and understanding of aether rocketed since Dalmasca was conquered? He is only helping them prosper!
+
Celhi died when Invia was young, and Evien fell into his work as a coping mechanism, and perhaps a desperate home to try and revive her. It wasn't long before his aetherology research on the soul seemed to have become all he cared about. Eventually it came to a head five years ago, when lamenting the lack of research resources that Gridania could provide to him and Sharlayan's refusal to let him back in after leaving them, Evien turned to a third option: the Garlean Empire. This caused a terrible argument and falling-out between father and daughter, but all Evien seemed to care for was the opportunity to further his research. In the dead of night he crossed Baelsar's Wall to betray Eorzea for the Empire, and from his already existing reputation and skill, he quickly saw himself rise through the ranks to mal. Invia stayed behind in Eorzea and became an adventurer to fulfill her childhood dream of being a hero.
  
After Rabanastre's destruction by the empire, Evien's daughter Invia would leave Dalmasca to "become a hero", something Evien dismissed. Even though he truly does love her, they had a rather large fight and falling out over the matter because they fundamentally disagreed about Garlemald. Evien continued to research in Valnain until he was assigned a more dangerous task: aiding against the Bozjan Resistance.

Evien mal Sheol is a Miqo'te originally from Sharlayan who betrayed Eorzea to join the Garlean Empire.

History

Originally X'Evien Tia and hailing from Sharlayan, when he was younger had attended the Studium and graduated as an Archon. X'Evien quickly became a renowned expert in aetherology and the manipulation of souls. When he met a young woman named Celhi Sheol, he moved with her the the Shroud and changed his name, loving her enough to embrace the Keeper of the Moon culture. Their daughter Invia was born shortly after in the South Shroud.

Celhi died when Invia was young, and Evien fell into his work as a coping mechanism, and perhaps a desperate home to try and revive her. It wasn't long before his aetherology research on the soul seemed to have become all he cared about. Eventually it came to a head five years ago, when lamenting the lack of research resources that Gridania could provide to him and Sharlayan's refusal to let him back in after leaving them, Evien turned to a third option: the Garlean Empire. This caused a terrible argument and falling-out between father and daughter, but all Evien seemed to care for was the opportunity to further his research. In the dead of night he crossed Baelsar's Wall to betray Eorzea for the Empire, and from his already existing reputation and skill, he quickly saw himself rise through the ranks to mal. Invia stayed behind in Eorzea and became an adventurer to fulfill her childhood dream of being a hero.

Stormblood

During the Eorzean Alliance's siege of Ala Mhigo, Invia temporarily split off from the rest of the group to locate her father in his laboratory. During their emotional confrontation the battling throughout the city caused ceruleum tanks to detonate and bring down the laboratory, and despite everything that had happened, Invia shielded her father from the explosions and raining debris. Though on the verge of death, Invia knew she had saved someone she loved...only for him to do shortly the same. Using the fruits of his research into the soul, Evien used forbidden magicks to give his life for his daughter's. Invia was brought back from the other side at the cost of her father's life, and as his last act of love toward his daughter, saved from the destruction and spirited her to safety.

Appearance

Tall, thin, and with facial features that can only be described as 'bony', Evien is probably the dictionary image of a Garlean scientist.

Personality

While consumed by his research since Celhi's death, ultimately everything he has done was for Invia and his late wife.

Evien has a surprising love for theater despite his cold exterior. Even more oddly, he has a taste for pickles.
