Brief History:
Mizuki's birth is shrouded in mystery. Found as a crying babe in a creek bed near the rice field of Yanxia, a young Hyur couple found and raised her as if she was their own. Growing up amongst those very rice fields until a drive for knowledge drove her into Kugane to pursue kimono making. Developing her weaving skills she eventually was offered a job by an Ishgardian Noble family to be their person seamstress.From there she found herself in the frigid mountain city of Ishgard. But her drive to unravel mysteries over bolts of fabric drew her to Sharlayan. Under sponsorship she joined the Students of Baldesion - learning healing magics, forging a pact with her own faerie, and eventually? Returning to Othard to fight along side the resistence.It would be years before she returned to Sharlayan. Stepping below the moral line into the criminal underbelly. Resurfacing only made her redouble her efforts to return and finish out her research. It paid off in the end, becoming a published author, a leading expert in the field of souls and memory - and obtaining the coveted and respected title of: Archon.

Personality and Appearance:
Mizuki is a stunning, seemingly Xaelic woman with deep purple skin and obsidian black scales. The pattern follows the typical Xaela, however her pointed ears and the horns that sit on top of her head set her apart from the rest of her kin. Suggesting only partial connection to the race occupying the Steppe. Her body is covered in an ornate, floral tattoo. From her blacked-out neck and shoulders, all the way down her sides and back to her legs and ankles. Its mostly decorative, but certainly a striking feature of hers. She is almost always impeccable dressed, designing almost all of her own wardrobe. Ensuring that each piece fits her curves perfectly.The Half-Xaela is enigmatic, inquisitive, highly ambitious, and a bit nosey. She enjoys a great many things in this life, but the only thing that she holds to be the most important aspect of her life? Above even personal relationships, her titles, or even her new business - is knowledge. She will go to any lengths necessary in order to achieve whatever thread of knowledge she has her eyes set upon. Even if it means crossing the line of some's moral compass.Knowledge is everything.

Tatsuya Masaru - Partner

An unlikely encounter crossed the paths of Mizuki and Tatsuya. Starting with a situation of mistaken identity the two have founds themselves in the same room on numerous occasions now. Fate? Or perhaps something far more simple - the two are growing closer with each passing day. Spending their waking hours in the others company when work and life doesn't get in the way.

Zyn Moks - Lover

Zyn has been a long time lover and friend of Mizuki. Their relationship is rather casual, but they find solace and comfort in each others company. No matter how many moons they might be apart, or how long they go without talking their bond is seemingly unbreakable. Mizuki adores her rather large companion, even if he takes up quite the amount of space - not just in her bed, but her heart too.

Dei'ra Tyana - Rival/Friend

Dei'ra - an enigmatic being blessed by the moonlight of Menphina. A Keeper with glowing runes and a mysterious, cold demeanor. All things that Mizuki finds detestable and yet? The two have grown close over the last few moons, despite their differences in their paradigms, they are rather... similar. As infuriating as that fact is to each other. Being the very thing the other hates. Rivals, only seems accurate.

Lady Crowe - Guardian

Mizuki's history with Crowe is long and complicated. A tale of tragedy that has only strengthened the bond they shared despite the near cycle or more they've been apart. There are very few people on this Star that Mizuki trusts unconditionally - Crowe is at the top of the list. One complicating matter still lingers in this new form they've taken. Making even being in their presence... physically painful.

Larian Astrapira - Friend

Over the last cycle Mizuki and Larian have become rather good friends. Supporting each other in their own endeavors and lending a hand when in need. Though the tall-eared man does almost everything he can to get on Mizuki's last nerves. Whether it be at the Bookmark or at Burden's Solace. The two aren't often far from each other when it comes to their respective businesses. Their roles are simply reversed.

Alma Cre'denar - Girlfriend

Alma and Mizuki have been long time friends. While both are Archons they didn't officially meet until they started healing at the same venue. Jokes were passed by, but the two never truly become romantic. That is until a fateful event where a bed companion suggested the two would make good partners. And so did that romantic chapter of their relationship begun.

Astreux Voeviere - Friend

The cycles have created a distance between the Isghardian Elezen and the Half-Dragon. From a time where they worked hand-in-hand in the criminal underbelly to their respective paths they've since followed. Astreux is one of those few people that are on this Star that Mizuki has nigh complete trust in. No matter what - business or research. She can count on the one-eyed Inquisitor to have her back.

Hanon Obesake - Friend

A cunning and reliable Seeker, Hanon is the oldest friend Mizuki has on the entire Star. They fought together in the Doman resistance, spent hours beneath the Othardian sun reminiscing about their missing childhood. Supporting each other in their careers and lifestyles, though these days they don't often get to see one another. Their bond is more like siblings than friends at this point.

The Morally Grey:
Mizuki has long since stepped her foot into the underbelly of the moral. She knows many in the crime circles of Eorzea, and at one point was the head of a criminal organization. She plans to start her own, with different ideals soon. You may have seen her at fight clubs, or other criminal oriented venues.

Sharlayan:
A Student of Baldesian and Archon, your character may have seen or met Mizuki if they also have connections to Sharlayan. She spends a lot of her free time in the city either in The Studium or The Noumenon. Mizuki also works on occassion as a field medic for Research Expeditions. Perhaps your character met her on one of those.

Seamstress:
You have ordered something from Mizuki to be specifically tailored to your character. Be it battle gear, casual wear, or something more formal. Or, you have heard of the work she has done in Isghard. Perhaps you are a friend of the Noble families she works for, or at least acquainted.

Research:
Mizuki is deeply involved in the world of research, especially in the topics under the umbrella of Aetherology. She's published and considered in expert an the more niche topics of the soul and memories. While not particularly intersted in many other topics, she is quite resourceful on places to gather information.

Yanixa/Kugane:
Your character grew up in the rice fields of Yanxia as well. Perhaps they met as children and haven't seen or heard from each other since they were young. Or their parents knew/know of each other. Mizuki also spent a fair amount of time in Kugane under the tutelage of a Kimono maker.

Venue Owner:
The new Hingan/Ishgardian blended Lounge and Fight Club - Burden's Solace is owned by none other than Mizuki herself! Come check it out every other Thursday!Burden's Solace Carrd:

In Passing:
Do you find Mizuki interesting? She is a highly sociable person and loves to chat with people she just met. She's usually open to discuss just about anything over a glass of whiskey. Mizuki has a unique appearance that typically draws attention, don't be afraid to strike up a conversation with her!

She/Her | MST | Evenings | In-Game Pref:
Hi there!In most online spheres I also go by the screen name of Mizuki. I've been playing FFXIV for almost 10 years now, though only the last three or so has been actively RPing as the purple skinned gremlin.I'm typically available to set up RP in the evenings after 6 PM MST and can go until about midnight or 1 AM MST. Weekends can be hit or miss as I tend to use those for IRL outings.I'm not against discord RP and sometimes its just easier especially if a scene wasn't finished or in-game schedules aren't lining up. I might be a little slow some days on responding is, so please be patient with me.I'm an avid gposer and have a presence on twitter (trying to on BSKY as well... but alas). And most of often my gposes are not canon unless otherwise stated. You will see Mizuki posed with a variety of people - but mostly friends.Please read the rules to the right before engaging with me! These are the big ones I want you to know off the bat.Communication is a must for me.
