Theo Magum (pronounced /ˈθioʊ meɪɡəm/) (13th Sun Fourth Astral Moon (July 13th)) is an Ul'dah-residing miqo'te. Early life taught him that if you wanted to get ahead, you'd have to be able to make a deal. So he learned to make deals. Becoming a trader at a young age, and a shopkeep in his late teens, Theo did his best to avoid attention from the wrong sorts of people. His quick wits and trusting nature however quickly made enemies, but he has been said to be overall well-liked.

Appearance & Personality
- With the length of his long blonde hair, Theo often finds himself pulling it back to avoid his eyes. Streaks of oranges and reds are often known to take hold in his hair as he often spends time around the dancers in the Ruby Road Exchange, quickly dipping his fingers into the paints and powders that are used for decoration. His aqua eyes tend to demand attention during a conversation, quickly darting into the crowd, often looking for a quick escape if needed.
- Due to his upbringing, Theo is often wary of sticking around strangers for too long unless there is something to gain. This has led to issues making friends, although in recent years he has been able to put aside this fear in his search for something precious.
- One of the most interesting observations made has been his ability to quickly read and write, as he learned this from an Ishgardian scholar at a young age. This scholar explained to him the trades that would be made available if he was able to read and write, and also introduced him to many interesting foods.
Biography
Childhood
- Abandoned on the Steps of Nald, Theo was found by a shopkeeper known as Eda. She took care of him and raised him to tend to the shop, selling small trinkets and beast parts found outside of the city to rich adventurers. One night, slightly after Theo's 10th Nameday, he was awoken by the smell and sounds of burning wood and smoke. As his home burned, he scraped with death, but lost his guardian in the blaze. Although her body was never found, Eda has been assumed dead in the blaze. Theo slightly blames himself, as he had been playing with bomb powder earlier in the afternoon, but none was found in the remains of the building.
Teenage
- Without a shop to keep, Theo took to trading to survive. The local traders seemed more annoyed than sympathetic but never stopped Theo from driving bargains in their shops or outside their stalls. Theo especially thrived with working with adventurers, a skill that Eda had taught him would be expected in the growing economy.
- In his late teens, Theo dealt with the blame and self-hate of his mentor's passing. It wasn't until he met a traveling Ishgardian scholar that he learned to accept that he wasn't responsible for the blaze and that at times there's simply nothing you can do. While he never caught the scholar's name, he counts him as one of his greatest allies in life, hoping to meet them again.
