WIP.
[edit]
Shou Lushan is a career Thaumaturge and freelance Archaeologist, who bears the custom-tuned, Animus-enabled suit of Allagan powered armor "Hawkmoth" into battle.
Shou Lushan is a short, slightly overweight Miqo'Te, with slate-gray skin, and black hair, with stripes, trimmed into a shaggy ombre. Shou generally appears frazzled, with head and long, fluffy tail hair unworked and mussed, and her choice of clothing is typically old, comfortable, and functional, often repaired and 'upgraded' with pockets, and marked with smudges, spots, patches and stitches.

Her left ear flops over itself about halfway up and doesn't always keep up with her right as they pivot towards sound. She favors dark cosmetics for everyday wear, including black lipstick, and a large stripe of charcoal painted across her eyes to protect her nocturnal vision from some of the light from the sun.

It does not look comfortable.
Laugh at Danger, and break all the rules.
Shou would describe herself as "Mysterious". In reality, Shou Lushan is the Thrill-Kill Cat and a danger magnet of her own making. A veteran mercenary now in charge of a misfit adventuring band, Shou has a wealth of practical historical and arcane knowledge that could perhaps rival that of tenured nerds in any scholasticate on Eorzea. She's accumulated this knowledge by acts of daring, stupidity, spontaneity, trust, desperation, and love, and has paid for it by getting decked in all mannner of ways. She's a mess, but she cares about people; with the parlance of a ganger and a 'ere dreaming, heroic heart,
