Her patience, eagerness to assist, and persist smiling in the face of obstacles saw her gain many friends within the customs agency, while her work ethic and aptitude saw her rise through the ranks, taking on the role of a delegator behind the desk of the customs office.

Basic Info
Merlgeim Barazirnwyn is a longtime customs officer who works at Mealvaan's Gate. She genuinely loves to assist people, smiling often, even as she puts up with various pirates and unscrupulous merchants in her line of work on a daily basis. She also assists her fiance in the management of his tavern, The Beast and Barrel.
Personality
Merlgeim is brilliant, positive, and outgoing. Her smile (her true smile, though it is hardly distinguishable from her practiced "customer service face") can light up a room, and her presence can bring order to a chaotic workplace. Sociable and charismatic, she strives to create a positive environment wherever she goes. She is idealistic, and truly believes in her work and a better Limsa Lominsa.
However, her idealism and selflessness can and often do lead to her neglecting herself and her own needs. Much of her motivations and identity revolve around her work as an assessor, and her ability to help others and improve her community. She puts great effort into proving herself to be trustworthy and reliable, and is frustrated by those who are slow to trust or reluctant to accept or seek help. She is not above resorting to subtle manipulation to achieve her goals and direct others to do what she wants them to do, while avoiding direct conflict.
History
Merlgeim was born to a scholarly pair of Roegadyn in 1551 6AE who worked as assessors of Mealvaan's Gate. Predictably, she was bright, and her parents saw this and spent much of their time nurturing her and her education. When she was nine, her younger sister Dyrstswys was born. When the sisters were eleven and two, respectively, the Arcanists' Guild was founded and established within Mealvaan's Gate. The two sisters grew up surrounded by books, arcanists, scholars, and maritime law, and it was from an early age that Merlgeim decided that she wanted to follow in her parents' footsteps and pursue a career within Mealvaan's Gate.
She and her childhood friend Thubyrgeim practically grew up together within the stacks of the Arcanists' Guild's library. The two showed great promise, becoming well versed in sums, history, and law. Though the two of them took interest in arcanima as well, Thubyrgeim took to the magic more strongly, while Merlgeim continued to pursue a role as assessor, learning to summon and train Carbuncles to inspect cargo and detect illicit substances. Her patience, eagerness to assist, and persist smiling in the face of obstacles saw her gain many friends within the customs agency, while her work ethic and aptitude saw her rise through the ranks, taking on the role of a delegator behind the desk of the customs office. She was well-liked among traders and coworkers alike.
Though she dealt with many, many people each day in her work as a customs officer, early in the Seventh Astral Era, Merlgeim was approached by one client who would change her life: Fyrilsunn Fiandoensyn, a sergeant of the 81st Maelstrom Foreign Levy Company. The Roegadyn man was seeking to uncover the fate of one Bararael Koelzantwyn, the late mother of his son, who apparently disappeared from Limsa Lominsa without ever telling him she was pregnant.
