Appearance & Personality

A slightly taller than the average Miqo'te keeper of the moon with paleish skin as is normal for his kind. Raih'a is not specifically muscular, but he does keep himself in proper shape.

His black and blue hair is almost always braided in some way, with beads and other ornaments attached to it. One of the ornaments sticks out from the others; a white ring made out of bone, with the figures of a small fox and an owl playing carved with simple lines with no colours.

Raih'a is a traditional miqo'te in the sense that he does follow the matriarchal societys way of living. While he did not wander from place to place like other keeper males would, he requested to stay at his birthplace to

learn more from the crafters. As he was never one who was found to have talent with a sword or magic, he found joy in creating new things. So he found that staying and learning more would be to the best of his interests.

He is a witty and intelligent individual, but due to him not wandering like other males, his knowledge on the normal day-to-day goings of the city-states are still questionable. But he is fast learner, and is improving at a good rate.

Biography

Time in the Shroud

Raih'a spent much of his early days learning new things from the people of his family. He did not have much talent when it came to hunting, and so was taught by the local crafters their trades. More specifically

working with cloth and leather. While he was still being trained with a bow and a sword, his skills with them never became anything to brag about, only enough to protect himself from danger with. He enjoyes

creating new things with his hands enough to abstain from the usual wandering lifestyle of the other Keeper males, and stayed in his birthplace honing his trade even when his two brothers left to wander.

During these times, he often found himself sleeping under a tree after his learning and work. To his horror, he was rarely even allowed to sleep as his childhood friend Nhia Nahri often came and bothered him, and caused his

usual sleeping area to be pushed higher into the tree itself, away from the short and pestering Nhia.

Eventually, Raih'a did leave the Shroud and the shelter of the family with Nhia Nahri. They left onwards to the wide world with eyes full of curiosity to see what it has in store for the two. To Raih'as horror, it was mostly

his tail being bitten and pulled by Nhia.

Present

During their stay in Limsa Lominsa, Raih'a started making their living expenses by using his tradeskills taught to him by the family craftsmen. He made business partners all over Limsa Lominsa, before they moved onwards

towards the great city of Ul'dah. His habit of 'dressing properly' (Read as wearing a suit), proved to be quite a task in the heat of the desert. But it was not a problem as he continued practicing his tradeskills in the

city of the desert.

Eventually he made enough to buy himself and Nhia a place to stay, now residing in the Lavender Beds in a decently sized house.

Miscellaneous

Kohaku

Kohaku is the little fluffy fox often perched on Rai's head. She uses the spot to spot pretty and shiny things to then try to steal.

When you see the fox, keep hold of your jewels, feathers and anything else fancy! If you want to get on her good side, add fancy things to her nest or give her attention.
