Character

Background

Born 5th Sun of the 2nd Umbral Moon to a merchant family from Doma of moderate wealth, Hyunae Yii spent much of her childhood travelling between Doma and Eorzea due to her father's business trade. It was not until the Garlean invasion of Mor Dhona, that blockades in Eorzea would prevent the Yii family from returning to their home country of Doma. Due to the rising refugee population and exclusion policies of Ul'Dah, the Yii family settled in the city-state of Gridania. It is here that Hyunae would begin learning the ways of conjury from the Conjurer's Guild as well as academic studies and playing the piano, all at the behest of her father.

Currently employed to the Harbingers of Dawn Support Branch, her duties are largely limited to the estate due to her inexperience with field work. Due to a mining accident at Thanalan, in which a number of victims were rerouted to the Harbingers estate for treatment, Hyunae was part of a team of Support Priests to treat the injured. She fell incapacitated due to aether depletion following the event.

Personality

Hyunae presents herself in a polite and demure fashion, her father having her learn formalities of the nobles in hopes of becoming part of the upper caste. Because of her time with the Conjurer's Guild, E-Sumi-Yan sought to counter the effects of a spoiled upbringing. As such, she is often willing to lend aid to whoever is in need.
