M'ishanu Runja(メイシャヌ・ルンジャ)or M'isha, is a miqo'te herbalist and alchemist of the Seeker of the Sun clan. She can be found in the cities of Ul'dah or Gridania, in the Eorzean wilderness, or near the Carline Canopy.

Status

M'ishanu leaves the steppes of Northern Thanalan to develop her skills as an herbalist and botanist in Gridania. Due to the war in Ishgard many conjurers and medics are asked to aid in healing the many injured of the war to the direct north of the Shroud. M'ishanu has just seen the true scale of the world she lives in. She now goes on her way to Ul'dah via the South Shroud. She meets the miqo'te tracker named K'iresh, a girl searching for a mysterious flower named Z'leilan Yelho and a mysterious Elezen knight from Ul'dah named Jullienaux Sintierre on her travels this time.

Appearance

M'ishanu stands at a little bit over five fulms and her gangly body weighs about ninety ponz. Some fresh cuts are always seen on her hands from the thorns she braves in order to pick the fruits needed for her medicines and teas. Her face still looks as rosy as a kit's and she has not lost chubbiness in her face yet. She moves much less gracefully than miqo'te who are raised as hunters. She always has a pure and sincere smile for anyone she meets.

Personality

Like most miqo'te of the peaceful Marmot Tribe, M'ishanu loves tranquility. She has a simple heart and loves most to see others happy and healthy. Still having the mindset of a child in some ways, she can be irresponsible and impulsive. She doesn't think ahead to the consequences of her actions, just doing what she feels is right at the time. The straightfowardness of her outlook can be an asset in hard times or a barrier in topics of complexity. In matters of the heart she is naïve.

Relationships

Friends

M'ishanu has few friends in her new city of Limsa Lominsa aside from her kind and helpful master Z'ranmaia the herbalist. All of her childhood friends work all over La Noscea as traders or farmers and she doesn't even know where most of them live now. Once, when she visited Gridania she made friends with a miqo'te of the Keeper of the Moon clan named Naoh and because of that she developed a fascination with miqo'te of this mysterious other clan.

Enemies

M'ishanu has no enemies aside from a hyur man called Mordyn who works as the supplier to the apothecary in Limsa Lominsa. He is always making rude comments to her master Z'ranmaia, which makes M'ishanu want to put something rotten in his tea. There was also a boy called M'nako in her tribe who used to tease her when she was a kit, but she has since forgiven him—at least, she says she has.

Family

M'ishanu comes from a very large family. Her tribe group contained almost a hundred miqo'te and among them, three nunh. Her father, M'runja Nunh, was an elderly fellow who she saw as more of a grandfather than a father. He was sickly for most of her life and she and her mother would tend to him constantly: bringing him tea, meals, medicine and so forth. Her true father figure was M'aba Nunh, one of the tribe's two younger nunh. He would play with her and her brothers and sisters often and even taught them how to hunt wharf rats. M'isha lost her three eldest sisters during the Calamity while they were in Limsa Lominsa doing business. Her father nunh also perished in the chaos. However, her childhood and family life were happy ones. When she was sixteen, she left her tribe for Limsa Lominsa but intends to return one day and continue in her mother's footsteps as the herbalist of the tribe.

History

M'ishanu was born in a small settlement outside of Limsa Lominsa as a member of the Marmot Tribe. Most of her tribe were grain traders who would travel between the city and various small settlements such as Summerford and Swiftperch. When the Calamity occurred she was only ten years old and she lost several members of her tribe. She remembers it as the saddest day of her life. Most of her days were not sad, however, and she loved to travel and collect herbs and fruits in the fields and meet new people on her tribe's travels. She only learned to hunt small beasts such as rats which would eat their tribe's grains and ladybugs which were simply fun to hunt with her brothers and sisters.

M'ishanu's life has always been devoted to healing others with the teas and medicine. Her father nunh was always ill and she and her mother were the ones who would tend to him when sick. When her tribe members were injured during the Calamity she and her mother helped to nurse them back to health, too.

M'isha at The Seventh Sage

Now that she is an adult she left home to learn more of her trade from the kind Ziz Tribe herbalist Z'ranmaia who owns a shop in Limsa Lominsa. Already the young miqo'te has a reputation as hard-working and caring to customers, but sometimes she can be too shy compared to the friendliness of most Limsa Lominsa people. It is true that M'ishanu feels stress in the loudness of the city and her favorite days are when she can travel far for Z'ranmaia's needs for new herbs and medicines to sell.

She especially came to love the city of Gridania after visiting for the first time to commence her official training with Fufucha the Botanist's Guild. On her last trip to Gridania, she also came to learn of the Hearers of the Conjurer's Guild and their amazing abilities to heal not only nature but illness and injuries of people, too. Secretly this power became her new dream, and she started visiting the Arcanist's Guild in Limsa Lominsa to learn more about these magical abilities.
