Character

General

Kikira Kira was born to two young entrepreneur Lalafells in the grand city of Ul'dah. Teteragi Vavaragi, her father, and Kokode Kode, her mother, are the founders of the North Sands Trading Company. This small trading company quickly became one of the more prominent in Ul’dah thanks to the prosperous trade routes between Ul’dah and Gridania. Her parents, now influential members of the Ul’dahn upper crust, have their eye on the Syndicate. As such, Kikira grew up wanting for nothing and tutored by the very best Eorzea had to offer. From a young age she took to the art of mathematics and her parents had her schooled in the practice of tactics and finance. Her other lessons included finishing classes, subterfuge, history, and modern politics.

By the time Kikira was seven, her parents had entrusted her care over to her body guard, Leuvianne Agache. Leuvianne was an interesting character, and while present was hardly ever seen unless in private. This allowed Kikira to have autonomy in her adventures around Ul’dah with little to no danger. This also allowed Kikira to see to state in which the poor of her city lived. Kikira immediately fell for them and wanted nothing more in her world than to see everyone happy, healthy, and safe. She made it her life’s quest to end poverty and want in Aldenard. When Kiki, as she now preferred to be called, was ten she started her first mission to help ease the pain of the underserved. She started spending her allowance on provisions and would sneak out of the house with Luevianne in tow to have the Duskwight help her hand out food, clothes, shoes, and blankets to the denizens of Pearl Street. Soon, she saw that food and clothes could only help so much. The wounds of the victims of street crimes and disease that comes from living without shelter and medical care where things that she could not fix. This prompted her to research ways to care to the wounded and sick. She found her studies leading her to Gridania and convinced her parents to take her with them on one of their negotiating trips. While in Gridania, Kiki sought out the conjurer’s guild and started a very meager training in communing with creation. Kiki continued to go hone her skills in secret from her parents and would go with them on their trips to Gridania with a feigned interest in the family business. When Kiki was twelve, her parents discovered her foray into conjury and were furious. They insisted that if she were to learn any of the arcane arts that she should at least learn one that would be useful to the business. They then hired an Arcanist by the name of Aparoto Beroto from Limsa Lomisa in order to train her in the ways of the nature of Aether as expressed by mathematics. Kiki begrudgingly set upon learning this skill and while she hated the thought of hurting people, she sure did enjoy her new Carbuncle friends. Then, the Calamity happened. Kiki saw waves upon waves of the newly outcast reaching towards Ul’dah for help and getting denied. She saw their pain and suffering. Her parents, she noted, were part of the problem. They took advantage of the downtrodden and weary just looking to survive and employed them at near slave wages. She saw her parents deceive and connive their way into the hearts of these people only to tear them out and step all over them. Kiki was ashamed of her heritage. She did the only thing a girl could do in this situation, she plotted how to help these people without her parents finding out. By age fifteen, Kiki had started her own sect of the North Sands Trading Company. She successfully had donation supply chains in the guise of trade routes running from Ul’dah to Little Ala Mhigo. As the citizenry of Little Ala Mhigo are not a trusting sort, she had made arrangements with one of the local merchants to accept the donations and sell them at a steeply discounted rate to the people there. This was going along smoothly until Kiki was sixteen, almost seventeen. Her caravans started getting attacked by strange groups in unmarked clothing. She had to start hiring adventurers in order to keep her supply chain safe. Kiki was puzzled as to where these groups were coming from as they never seemed to be after her or her guards, just the cargo. One day, she overheard her father hiring a group to “disturb the routes of his competition.” Kiki listened closely to the conversation and realized that he was after her caravans. She was furious. She decided that she needed to find the absolute strongest adventurers she could and put her father in his place. The next day, Kiki and Luevianne went to the Bloodsands to scope out the fighters. There she noticed a young Miqo’te by the name of Kodaro Ba’rococo fighting his heart out in the arena. She was taken by his skill and approached him after his fight. She then set down a heaping bag of gil in front of him and announced that she would like to hire him for her next donation mission to Little Ala Mhigo. Surprisingly, the Miqo’te agreed. Kiki spent the rest of the day in the bloodsands looking for someone who fought with as much passion as Kodaro had and was unsuccessful. She resorted to posting a request for an adventurer in the Adventurer’s Guild. Rookerin Jackson, a lancer, replied to her plea for help. After a demonstration of the Hyur’s skills, Kiki was satisfied that he would do for this mission. The next morning, the four set out on their mission. Kiki chatted with both of the adventurers to pass the time. She was surprised to learn that Kodaro was a member of the Immortal Flames. She begged the Miqo’te to tell her stories of his adventures. Kiki, now thoroughly enamored with the life of an adventurer, started day dreaming of how awesome it would be to help people as Kodaro had in the 81st. When the Corpse Brigade attacked, she was caught off guard and reacted by using the skills she swore she would never use. She hurt people. She strangely didn’t feel any remorse as these people were trying to hurt her and her new found friends. The adventuring party was able to fight off the bandits with relative ease. This opened up Kiki’s eyes to a whole new world of being able to help people. She begged Kodaro to help her become an adventurer. A few weeks later, Kiki showed up at the 81st headquarters in the Mist with a note from Kodaro. This is where her adventure begins.



Appearance

Kikira has always been small, even by Lalafell standards. She stands at two fulms ten ilms and wears her hair in buns to make her seem taller. She has the appearance of constant wide-eyed innocence and can typically be found wearing silks, velvets, or cashmere. She tends to favor pink, purple, blue and silver shades and prefers items of quality instead of presence. Recently, she has begun to wear her hair down in order to seem more “mature” after she realized that part of her problem with being taken seriously was that she looked like she “crawled out of a daycare.”


Behaviour

Kikira’s behavior can be described mainly as energetic. She often acts childishly as this is how she deals with her traumatic life experience. She will happily help any person who asks of her, especially if they need food, shelter, or healing.


Combat

Kikira hates combat in all of it’s forms. While she is quite an accomplished Arcanist, she prefers to remain seemingly helpless. After years of study and continuous training the young Lalafell is able to sustain having both of her carbuncles summoned at once. This is rather draining to the girl and she only does this in times of dire need or when she desperately needs comforting. The carbuncles are like pets to her and her only friends, outside of Leuvianne, from her childhood. Due to her training in being able to sustain two carbuncles, she also is quite capable when it comes to channeling extra aether into her attacks when no carbuncles are present. When she is in distress she can shoot forth a Ruin that has multiple times the aetheric energy as the geometry would typically allow. Kikira also has minor training in conjury and would much rather use these skills. She will gladly poor all of her aether into healing her friends and companions.

Y’lyfriel Sikah – ”Mama-Lyf” is someone who Kikira aspires to be. She is loved, adored even, and has a happy family. Kikira also looks up to Lyf for her accomplishments in the fields of scholarly pursuits. As with Rhesh’ir, Kikira would do anything to keep the miqo’te family safe.
Kodaro Ba’rococo – Kikira idolizes Kodaro, plain and simple. The miqo’te unknowingly saved her life during their leve to Little Ala Mhigo. Since then Kikira has decided to follow him where ever he goes and took up his invitation to join the 81st. Kikira is currently working on building a community center on Pearl Street in his honor.
