:Through the many years under his employer, Gota'wo worked, adopting the name he now uses as he was presented from a pleasure house of other miqo'te for often selection from would be customers. His notation of being a 'Wo' was of his rank in line for the pleasure house he was sold to. After many years, one particular incident would give him reason to rise. During a renegotiation of services, he found himself set to be sold by his employer for sickened lust and coin. As he sat to await his new master, he overheard he had been bought by an Amalj'aa who had a 'taste' for miqo'te boys. Set before him was a veiled high ranking Amalj'aa general, smuggled into Ul'dah to collect his new 'toy'. As the beastman set himself upon the now 17 summers old Miqo'te, Gota'wo snapped, taking a Golden goblet and beating the beastman dead. In the state of blood lust, Gota'wo turned to find his employer having arrived in the aftermath, with little hesitation, Gota'wo lunged, and seperated soul from flesh of the small monetarist Lalafell. Gota'wo took what he could and fled from Ul'dah that night. | :Through the many years under his employer, Gota'wo worked, adopting the name he now uses as he was presented from a pleasure house of other miqo'te for often selection from would be customers.

During a battle to secure a large cache of allagan artifacts that some smugglers were trying to transport, Gota'wo was struck down by a powerful Au'Ra Death Knight. In one swing, Gota'wo found his legs in mid leap taken from him. As he gazed upon his battle with the fiend, he could see the vile man bring his blade on the rebound, another slash, Gota'wo's left arm reached out, and kept reaching out, far beyond what he was familiar with. Laying there dying to loss, Gota'wo could feel that if he dies, the world he saw from the Allag, the one he yearned for to be, to fix the mistakes the world saw fit to scar him with, begin to fade. He fell silent. |

Yet this would not be his end, thinking back to those moments of death, to the torment he was forced to take, Gota'wo glared up in the chiurgeon's recovery room, a vile gaze grew. By the next morning he was gone, seeming to have crawled from his bed, and taken a unguarded chocobo. The next time he would be seen, he would be whole, yet not. Part machine, part man, all hatred for others in power, seething behind his lips. | :After several days, he came too. He had survived, yet was forever Maimed.

Weaponry & Armor
Allagan Grimoire Book of Casting
A lost artifact of the Allagan empire that Gota'wo has obtained. It has been heavily modified so that its contents can be discerned for use. Additionally its pages seem to shift right before ones eyes when read.
Eikon Leather Corset of Casting
Gota'wo's modifed Eikon Leather Corset. Designed for flexibility and dependability in combat. Housed inside the shoulder and collar of this armor is a Magitek relay regulator that helps provide power and control to Gota'wo's Magitek arm and feet.
Scholar Soul Stone
There are many like it throughout time, each unique to the user and legacy. This stone however is Gota'wo's, unearthed some years ago during a treasure hunt deep in the lands of Outer La Noscea.
Portable inventory
Mega-Lighting Ward Potion
Due to the large amounts of metal that now are bonded to Gota'wo, he finds it sufficient and important to his survival to keep a steady supply of Lightning ward potions on hand.
Sesame Cookie
Essential survival rations for on the go. Highly caloric to Gota'wo's needs, and yet small and light to carry a large sum around with him always.
Personal Vehicle
Draught Chocobo
A commandeered mode of transportation Gota'wo obtained some time back. The previous owners of the beast of burden had little to no use of it after encountering a determined Miqo'te. In Gota'wo's words "I don't know the birds name, nor the owners, but that's of little importance, they are dead now."
Personal Room
Gota'wo has no residence. He lays and sleeps where he must, be it on the street, or another's house he has scammed his way into. However he does own a small workshop, hidden away in the windmill of the Goblet. Residence of the Goblet often complain of loud noises and flashing lights shining from the cracks of its walls, some even say the sky seems to darken when he sequesters himself away for days on end.
Gain +3 instead of +2 when invoking an enemy Consequence on a Fight attack.
For an FP, gain the Aspect Dreadwyrm Trance with one free invoke. This aspect gives +3 instead of +2 when used to attack with Magic.
Any time Gota'wo spends a round in combat without defending or changing zones, he gains a boost to Magic or Physical of his choice; this boost does not stack(see end). This stunt does not trigger on the opening round of combat. By utilizing the Magitek prosthetic legs and arm, large amounts of aether can be stored for a short period of time. If unused by the following round, the aether quickly discharges into the air.
Utilizing his Carbuncle familiar in combat, Gota'wo may use Fight to attack enemies in adjacent zones by throwing his Carbuncle at them. Target must be in line of sight and clear of obstructions.
Gain +2 to lore by tapping into the treasure trove of knowledge that was implanted into him.
Gota'wo's Legs from the knees down and Left Arm from the elbow down are Magitek Prosthetic. He has enhanced footing and steady grip when hanging and is particularly robust. Negatively, Electricity is extremely potent to him.
Gota'wo is obsessed with research and Lost Treasure, particularly allagan high tech interest and understanding. This drives his innate lore on subjects and understanding. The allure can often be too great, often putting him in danger.
Gota'wo is a hound dog by nature. It is not unlike him to stand out, take a shot for, cause trouble and become distracted when trying to flirt with the opposite sex. This has lead him to intervene and take attacks for some. When not negatively putting him in harm's way and instead aiding someone, he tries to score descriptive flair in his actions. ☩ C O M M O N - R U M O R S ☩
