BACKGROUND

As a baby, Scoot was taken in by a kindly Roegadyn couple, who had never seen anyone as tiny as he was. Having been left in a small village comprised entirely of Roes, Scoot’s extremely small stature led to him being bullied and beaten. Even as others grew up and left the village or took up trades, Scoot remained tiny and the bullying continued, even by those younger than him.

It was not until an equally diminutive traveler happened by the village that Scoot decided to venture away from the place he had called home. When she saved him from being pummeled once more, little Scoot wondered how she managed to guard him. It was here that he decided to become a paladin, and the adventurer allowed him to come with her to Eorzea… provided his parents approved. She did so with the expectation that they would not agree, as she realized he was still only a child, and a Lalafell (unlike the very small Roegadyn Scoot claimed to be). However, well-intending as they were, his parents did not know better and consented when Scoot announced he wanted to adventure.

With Scoot in tow, the adventurer chose to place Scoot under the care of one of Eorzea’s largest Free Companies. Here, he might be looked after while still allowed to be fairly independent. So began the adventures of Scoot Patoot.

Very quickly, Scoot became known as a child prodigy for his combat skills, and rose through the ranks of the Immortal Flames despite his young age. However, his feats in combat have led him to see more suffering than perhaps an average child would know.
