Mizuki Hagane is a young Au Ra Doman refugee living in Revanent’s Toll. Some words to describe her would be: kind, gentle, bubbly, naive, optimistic, giggly, friendly, loyal, open.

Mizuki is the type of person to be concerned over everyone’s well being. It is nearly impossible for her to not want to help someone, even if they have wronged her in the past. She is able to turn the other cheek well, in the moment. However, she is sensitive, so harsh words can be taken to heart easily, even if she does nothing about them.

This Au Ra doesn’t take too much seriously, except her work. She is exceptionally devoted to her personal causes.

Mizuki's given name means "Beautiful Moon." (美月) Her family name, Hagane, means "Steel." (鋼)

Biography

Before Life in Eorzea

Mizuki is the daughter of two members of the Doman nobility. While her father comes from a strong lineage, her mother was a formidable Doman warrior, whose family gained status over several years of honorable service. With disappearance of her father, the demise of her mother, and their entire nation due to Garlemald's invasion, her name and former status no longer carries any weight. Currently, she is very poor and never possesses much money of her own. She doesn’t value gil much, save for using it to keep funding her healing materials--therefore obtaining it rules her life. It’s for that reason that she dons the mantle of “mercenary.”

Her father was the divinator, and taught her all she knows about reading the Stars and attuning to the constellations. It broke her heart when he abandoned her mother and her years ago to go live in the wilderness after he took a vow of contemplative silence. Though her mother harboured a lot of anger towards him and things he had done, her daughter chose to believe in the fact that his path was written long ago. She bears no ill will for his decision.

Her mother has been a part of the Doman Army against the Garleans taking over their home. With their defeat, her mother lost her life, and Mizuki could either stay and become a citizen of Garlemald’s Empire, or find a new life somewhere free. She prayed on this for suns while in hiding, but through her prayers and personal readings, she chose the path of the refugee and fled to Eorzea.

Currently

Prior to leaving her home, she had heard tales of Eorzeans, and their abundant magicks and barbaric Primals. It intimidated her. Despite this, Mizuki traveled with a small caravan across the land to Eorzea. After they were attacked over and over again by scared natives-- even though they insisted that they were harmless--she chose to cover herself from head to toe with clothing. She lost several friends to ruthless slaughter, and her heart became torn with grief, wondering if she chose correctly. Again, she prayed, reaching out to the heavens to guide her.

Once reaching Revenant’s Toll, her hope soared. Seeing so many of her kind showed her that she had chosen right. Immediately, she set to work, doing whatever she could to help. Eventually, a talented hyur alchemist named Dunstan Chaucer took her in. At first, she helped him with experiments, but her daydreaming and questions about near-to everything annoyed him, so she became a sort of errand girl and representative of his business.

The gil she earns from Mister Chaucer is very little, so, in her free time, she has taken on leves offered around the Toll. The area is quite dangerous, so she isn’t able to do many of them, but she manages a small amount of money. Using this and her earnings from the alchemist, she funds her “healing room”, where she offers services of tarot readings, dream interpretation, astrology readings, and physical and mental healing to anyone free of charge. This is her true passion--and she will do whatever she can to maintain it.

Miscellaneous

Combat Experience

Mizuki is very experienced with battle, but she is by no means a hardened warrior. She has trained with a sword and firearms, as well as her specialty in healing magicks. Up until coming to Eorzea, her task was to heal the wounded on and off the field when battling Garleans across their home in Othard.

■ She was nobility in Doma, and she is sheltered to many aspects of living entirely on her own. Even so, she never thinks herself above anyone, and values every life equally.

RELATIONS ♥ Romantic Interest    ♥ Platonic Love     ● Good Standing     ● Poor Standing ●Dunstan Chaucer: (NPC) Mizuki’s part time employer. He is a well known alchemist from Gridania. Though his primary market was in Ul’dah for many years, Chaucer relocated to Revenant’s Toll during the beginnings of its creation as a main hub. He has helped Rowena, the Sons of St. Coinach, as well as Garlond Ironworks with many of their arduous endeavors where his services have been needed. He is a shrewd man, and not extremely approachable. Mizuki finds his vast knowledge fascinating and is indebted to him for allowing herself, as well as many other Doman and Othard refugees, to be employed and taken under as apprentices upon arriving to Eorzea. ♥Childhood Friend Male: (deceased) Mizuki and he grew up together with FEMALE. One year older. They were best friends and shared everything that children do. When he was 10, the three stumbled into a Garlean scouting group. MALE was executed in front of the girls, but they managed to escape. ♥Childhood Friend Female: (deceased) Mizuki and she grew up together with MALE. Two years older. She was never quite the same after MALE was killed by Garleans, and withdrew into herself. After her beloved and family were killed in the war, she committed suicide at age 19. ◢ Relatives ♥Father: A very serious, spiritual man. He has descended from a long line of Au Ra with the gift of foresight. His light eyes and hair, carried down through the generations, suggest that his lineage did not begin in Doma, despite his high ranking status when Doma was a nation. He has a natural attunement to the Universe, especially the Stars. Though, before he met Mizuki's mother, he would use his gift to assist his fellow Doman nobility, especially when dealing with potential conflicts. Eventually, this changed, and he used them only for himself, and thought himself a sort of prophet. His words were not spared often, and when they were, it was usually something negative about ill omens or poor judgment. He left when Mizuki was 14 cycles old after taking a vow of silence, and she has not seen or heard of him since. ♥Mother: (deceased) A hardworking, powerful fighter and part of the Doman army, Mizuki's mother was a fighter through and through. Her knowledge of combat was unmatched, and she was stubborn to the last. She could not use magick and did not have any Gifts. When she was not training or involved with war, she spent time with Mizuki as much as she could, though a "normal" noble life was never for her. Eventually, her husband’s withdrawn and often strange nature also drove her inward, turning her rather callous towards strangers and even people she knew. Her soft spot, however, was always Mizuki. It was only in her daughter’s presence that she felt something other than anger, depression, and frustration at the world and her situation. Mizuki gave her hope. She was killed during the Garlean occupation of Doma.
