Nahare Rahz
Nahare (pronounced Nah-ha-ray) is a descendant from the Lynx tribe residing in the Sagolii desert. Her parents, X'Rahz Tia and X'Ahlia Mahsa, eventually grew despondent with tribal life and hoisted their belongings to Limsa for a new life together. Even though they are no longer tribesmen themselves, they still adhered to the naming convention for their daughter. However, Nahare detests Seeker tradition, and conveniently drops the Lynx portion from her name when introducing herself. Only those close to her know where her roots lie. A few nicknames she will respond to are Nah-Nah, Naha, and Oba-san (by one person only).
Two years after their move to Limsa, Rahz and Ahlia welcomed Nahare into the family. Rowdy from the get go, she never did learn the words "slow down." At the tender age of ten was when her chaotic streak started as she had become notorious for petty thieving, excessive white lie spewing, and in general letting rules go through one ear and out the other. Her parents had high hopes that their little cub was just going through a "phase" and would settle down as she aged.
Except she didn't. The aforementioned traits expanded and turned into a duplicitous and above-the-law attitude. Full blown lies, dirty fighting, thieving on a much larger scale, kidnapping, sabotage, espionage, and even on certain accounts, murder. Nahare had grown accustomed to using any means necessary to ensure success in her goals, even if it meant hurting others in the process to get to it. A philosophy of hers is, "If it amuses me, or provides me with some type of self gain, then why not?"
Her behavior molded itself into a type of bipolar, sociopathic frame of mind. Mentally unhinged, a loose cannon. She had garnered the attentions of the seedier people that prowled along Limsa's taverns and alleyways, and seeing that the kit was willing to throw caution to the wind for the highest bidder, she found herself as a sought after asset. After a few successful jobs and a heavy coin purse, Nahare enlisted herself as a full time mercenary and such has been her way of life since.
Despite the warped path she has chosen to walk, there is still a heart beneath the cracks. Somewhere. Maybe? Her heart has been put through the ringer, seemingly possessing the poorest of luck when it comes to romance, which has only added to her typically cynical and jaded nature. Then there's the strained relationship with her parents, as they never told her about her older sister, Nataru Rahz. Nahare found her whilst conducting business in the Goblet and has since given her parents a wide berth after vehemently confronting them on it. With a near vice-like grip, she clings to her older sister as Nataru is the only blood she has left and gives two shits about. She does, however, also have a nephew that she cares greatly for, as well as a developing bond with the Rising Claws, a band of sky pirates that is run by him. A small shred of her still hopes to be surrounded by family and friends one day, and maybe find a mate to give her heart to, as those concepts are something she holds dear considering she has very little of them.

Allies
The utmost admiration, respect, and sibling love is held for this Lalafell. She has known Nazyl since her days under contract beneath a different Free Company. His warm demeanor, practical way of thinking, and tenacity in never giving up on your dreams has benefited her many a time in the past. He was also present during a very fragile point in her life, serving as a guard and ensuring her needs were being met while she recovered. All of this has lead her to view him akin to a brother and she looks up to him as such. She is rather protective of Nazyl and wouldn't even think twice of charging into battle alongside him.
Another man she knows from previous contract days. Her and Flynt often bicker in a rather comedic love-hate relationship. They may hiss, spit, mock, and shoot at each other on a near daily basis, but underneath it all lies a silent agreement that should one of them fall into trouble, the other would be there in an instant to help them out of it. Flynt may be a self-entitled, lecherous brat, but Nahare sees the good in him where others do not.
This young man's lust and enthusiasm for life is damn near infectious. Nahare can't help but smile when she's around him and is happy to call him little brother. His innocence often offers her a different perspective on situations through a teenager's eyes, something she lacks when her mind is wracked with bitter realism. They have learned much from each other, and do their best to maintain their bond over stories and their love of fruit juice.
Nahare used to be unsettled by Shirono as she had the uncanny talent of literally appearing everywhere the Claws went, stepping straight from the shadows. However, over a period of time, she's proven herself to be a formidable healer and combatant of Doman techniques. Eccentric, methodical, and oft times quiet would be words used to describe her. Now a Claws member herself, Nahare looks upon Shirono with a smile on her lips.
A Temple Knight of Ishgard. Nahare was leery of Yvain at first, concerned that he would present forth a holier-than-thou attitude towards the Claws. He proved her wrong, though, showing a benevolent smile and just as benevolent mannerisms instead. His main proficiency lies with that of a spear, of which she's been able to witness firsthand alongside him in battle. She hopes her growing sense of respect for the Elezen will hold as she learns more about him.
Julius Bennett ♥● - Shield Bearer of the Charlemagne Knights; The Beacon of Light A Hyur with diligent work ethic and a noble mindset, he and Nahare are close friends. He possesses a gentle and diplomatic nature that has proven to be a breath of fresh air amongst the chaos she is used to. Julius was the second person to serve as a guard alongside Nazyl during her period of recovery. She trusts this man with her very life and often seeks him out when she falters putting her troubles into words. He is a stalwart man through and through, holding the frontlines with a zeal that even the most seasoned of veterans would be envious of. Their unspoken affection for each other has recently been brought to light, leaving a very "star-crossed lovers" feeling between them.
Such a turbulent relationship. Memith used to be a member of the Claws, during which they called each other sisters. Nahare watched the young woman like a hawk, having deemed Memith as her ward. Unfortunately, tensions arose at one point between the Claws and Hivemind, resulting in Memith's expulsion from the Free Company. It pained Nahare to look at her former sister as an assassination target, but orders were orders. Over a few moons they would butt heads, fighting against each other relentlessly. Both of them were stubborn to a fault and never backed down until forced to. Thankfully, the civil war has ended, and the two are able to call each other sisters once more as they work on repairing the bridge that was broken.
Wielding a quick wit and dry sense of humor, Nahare likes spending time with this woman. She has a knack for information brokering, with eyes and ears in places you'd least expect. If you want to know something, Jen is your go to gal. It's this talent combined with her skills of Thaumaturgy that make her a rather valuable asset one would be stupid to let go of. It got awkward between them for a little bit, no thanks to Flynt, but they've since been able to move past what happened and are able to coexist peacefully.
The newest member of the Claws and one that is quickly proving himself to be a man of his word. Though he may seem like he's primarily driven by gil, numerous times over has he shown a caring side for those he works alongside with. Nahare respects Wiegraf and hopes to see big accomplishments come of him one day.
The Claw's newest engineer and Flynt's younger brother. Nahare nearly had heart failure when she learned a second Reddard existed. One of them was enough. Still, she tested his worth in a spar. Though his boisterous words and attitude may annoy the hells out of her, he did prove himself a rather competent foe, having given her a run for her money and nearly winning. So he was good with his fists and feet, but his fluidity with the wrench has yet to be seen, leaving Nahare curious to see if he can pull his weight.
Orenji's wife and Nahare's niece. Sayuri is ruthless when it comes to business, but nurturing as soon as family is involved. Nahare is both relieved and happy that such a woman has come into her nephew's life. She protects her and offers her the same guidance as she does Orenji, having made it known to Sayuri that she is family and would be treated as such.
Known to Nahare as "Beardy", Melkire is a long time friend of Ki's through many moons of ups and downs. A man that's straight to the point, he wasted little time in bringing to light a common enemy. Now equipped with a new ally and further knowledge, the trio descend further down the rabbit hole.
S'Kiear's apprentice and friend. Mikh'a is a young and seemingly skittish Keeper male. Nahare was wary at first, though he quickly proved himself as one that could be trusted. Besides being her mate's apprentice, he's also a doctor, and has agreed to help tend to Nahare through her delicate condition.
A friend of Mikha'a's and S'Kiear's. Nahare recently met Sazi alongside Mikh'a. This little Lalafell is rather shy in nature, but has a very kind heart. Nahare enjoys her company and looks forward to spending more time with her around the Dauntless household.

Family
The Twelve hold a twisted sense of humor in regards to this couple. Enemies from the start, they wanted nothing more than to spill each other's blood due to them having been pawns amidst a heated civil war. What was supposed to be "harmless spying" one day turned into a violent wrestling match. Instead of panicking, Nahare goaded him further in a fit of maniacal laughter. This sparked a flame of interest as the two realized they potentially shared the same deranged tendencies. The civil war was eventually resolved and they then experienced the joy of having to "play nice". Awkward tension developed into genuine interest and genuine interest further molded itself as passionate affection. They currently hold a strong and steady relationship, though that's not to say there won't be any challenges along the way.
The eldest of the Rahz sisters and one of the few that keep Nahare in line. They have a very strained relationship with their parents, and as such, cling to each other so they do not meet the same fate. Where one sister goes, the other is sure to follow, or isn't too far behind. Nahare adores and looks up to Nataru, doing anything within her power to ensure her safety and wellbeing. Nataru is known for her mean left hook, as well as her rib crushing kicks, and earns a living as an ambitious seeker of hidden shinies.
Akama Kharn ● - Red Shadow of the Twin Serpents; The Voice of Reason Trusted friend and brother, Nahare greatly misses this man, even his long winded philosophical rants. Akama was a wise man, a fountain of endless knowledge and a pinnacle of peace. He managed to get Nahare to slow down long enough and actually think, a huge difference aside from her usual strike first and ask questions later method. He taught her a sense of balance and it's a lesson she will be eternally grateful for. Nahare often wonders where he is and if she'll ever get to see him again.
Nahare's nephew and someone she considers like he was her own son. At first she didn't believe his seemingly absurd claim of their relation to each other. After Orenji provided her with evidence too rich in history for her to dismiss, she nearly broke down in tears in a mix of bittersweet memories and ecstatic joy that another family member was within her life. Although it took her a while to completely warm up, she didn't hesitate answering his offer to join him in a band of sky pirates. To this day she is fiercely loyal and extremely caring, and even if they may not see eye to eye all the time, she will always be by his side to help oversee family and business matters.
Qubh'li Kharn ♥≈ - Crimson Devil of the Twin Serpents; Master of Honeyed Words Former mate. Their relationship was... interesting, to say the least. He effectively crawled into her mind and wove a dark web, leaving behind deeply rooted psychological impacts still felt to this day. Qubh'li didn't truly love her, he loved Nahare's aggression and twisted mind. He played her like a marionette doll, effortlessly plucking at her strings as he attempted to shape her into a likeness of his image. Some of his last words to her before his disappearance reverberate through her ears like a broken record. "You're /my/ monster, darling. And we'll burn in the Seven Hells together one day." Despite shattering her heart and mind, she laments his presence, and maintains a soft spot for him in her heart.
Acquaintances/Rivals
Two Xaela Au Ra that have contracted her mate for a very particular mercenary job. Nahare doesn't trust them as far as she can throw them (which isn't far at all). She's reluctantly agreed to help, if only to get the job done faster so they no longer have to be in their presence.
An associate of Ki's. Nahare does not like this mysterious Miqo'te. At all. She's only met him once, but it was enough to imprint a sense of dread within her. The less she sees of him, the better, but deep down Nahare can't help but feel that may be wishful thinking.
A woman particularly skilled with her wordplay, Nahare quickly took a liking to her when her mate introduced them to each other. Not much is known of her, only that she's maintained a strong sense of will after having been made to suffer through her little brother's shenanigans. Nahare hopes to see more of her in the future.
A threat to Sayuri no longer, she now hunts this man for a different reason, that being to pit herself against him in contest of battle prowess. His smug attitude both infuriates and intrigues her.
A soft spoken, and kind hearted, Raen Au Ri. Nahare had the pleasure of competing against her in a fighting tournament. Mayu made short work of their spar, dextrous fingers landing swift incantations with deadly precision. Since then, Nahare has made it a point to talk to the young woman whenever she sees her, finding their association most welcome and mind opening at the same time.
One who cares deeply for his friends, Blaze has helped Nahare and her family a few times when it boiled down to self defense and medical attention. Though she doesn't see him often, Nahare enjoys their conversations and appreciates his sunny disposition. Along with healing, he's also a remarkable lancer, having shown Nahare and the contestants of Grindstone a thing or two.
Best described as an enigma, Togy attempted to recruit Nahare within his fold of cloak and dagger assassins. Though she ignored the question, her reply was loud and clear when she used his wish for a spar against him to steal an item needed for a job. He constantly reminds her of "the debt" she has to pay. She laughs it off, equating Togy to a bird trying to dazzle her with his feathers, though she thinks him full of shite in the process.
There is no love lost between R'elend and Nahare. She puts forth little effort in covering up her disdain for this pitiful excuse for a Miqo'te and most certainly doesn't regret shooting at him. His comments laced with vitriol and salaciousness have left a less than stellar impression upon her.
Insufferable. Little. Shite. This man has crossed one line too many, so much so to the point that Nahare no longer bothers with self restraint and will attack as soon as the opportunity presents itself. His death will be her sick pleasure.
