Personality

Behaviours

Milo is a quiet and shy young man, due to mistreatment inside his tribe. Being very skittish by nature, he is easy to startle, and often blushes and stammers when suddenly talked to. Due to his nervousness he rarely looks at people in the eye, and prefers to hide behind his taller brother, while the group leader Celeste Xura takes care of talking. When asked about his interests though he seems to act more natural, even talking too much when it comes to animals, chocobos, or machinery.

Combat

He doesn't have much confidence when it comes to battling, though he has had some training in thaumaturgy. Due to his timid nature his spells are unstable, and so the young Au ra is reluctant to use them in battle, in fear of hurting himself or someone else. After Celeste gave him a gun as a present, Milo has taken an interest of ranged combat, and has been training by himself from time to time.

Companions and friends

  • Celeste Xura - The leader of his small travelling group, and someone Milo looks up to. He is grateful to her for being able to accompany his brother to his journey, instead of being left alone with his tribe and parents.
  • Raeth Xura - Milo's older brother, as well as his emotional support. Raeth has always been a sort of role model to the younger Au ra, the latter looking up to him to a point of being almost too clingy, as he always runs to his brother for safety and comfort.
  • Sully Xura - The chef and lancer of the small tribe, Milo feels a close kinship towards the timid female, as they share the same shy personality. He also shares her interest in cooking, and tries his best to help Sully to search food, and learn something on the way.
  • Korin Relanah - A Miqo'te Keeper Milo knew from his time as Milolo Milo. After breaking his glamour the Au ra was worried about being shunned by his friend, but Korin's acceptance of his new form made Milo feel even closer to the Miqo'te. Milo considers him a close friend.

History

Milo was born into a young tribe called Xura, founded by Elder Kroin at the time of his grandparents. Being smaller than other Au ra boys of his tribe, his relations with his family and rest of the tribe were awkward at best, and his clumsiness and timid nature only made matters worse.

Despite being part of the Xura tribe for a generation or two, Milo's family is an old follower of Tumut culture. Following the traditions he was tied to a tree at the age of ten, along with other younglings of his age, and left there to free himself and to return to the wandering tribe. Being too weak to free himself, Milo had resigned himself to his fate, when something unexpected happened. His older brother, Raeth, had stayed behind and released him, to the little Au ra's shock and surprise. Still shaken by the scare caused by his quiet brother's sudden appearance and his release, Milo made his way back to the tribe. Thanks to the elder’s kindness he was able to stay with the tribe, despite the suspicions of his survival, and was looked down by most of his family after that, except by Raeth, who Milo now admired more than ever.

At some point during his teenage years, his father sent him off to live with one of the elders of the tribe, to be trained as magic user. Unfortunately this didn't go as well as he hoped, and his youngest son came back an year later, his body bruised and parts of his scales charred by fire, and as weak as he was before. This was the last straw to his father, who didn't bother to care about Milo after that, considering him a disappointment.

Around at the age of 20, due to certain circumstances he ended up travelling with his brother and two other tribe-members to Eorzea, and living a couple of years under the glamour of a lalafel girl, Milolo Milo.
