Character

Growing up on the fertile South Islands was an uninteresting and uninspiring experience. Fitata Fita and her parents, mother Mitutu Mitu and father Malto Finto, lived on a small farm in the middle of a small flat island of just a few thousand inhabitants. Fitata grew up on the farm helping her father in the fields growing lettuce, cabbage, various herbs such as basil, thyme and sage, as well as Gysahl greens. Most of the days were spent tilling the ground, putting seeds in the little mounds that her father would create in the field and pulling weeds. The weeds would sometimes fight back, but most of the time it was just a boring and uneventful life.

Fitata enjoyed spending time at the docks fishing and singing the evenings away after her chores were done. She would sit on the docks with her bobber in the water waiting for a fish to bite and singing the songs that she would hear the sailors singing as they would come to the docks to offload their wares from the mainland. She would listen to the stories and tall tales that the sailors would tell the dock workers. She learned about the changes to the mainland and Limsa Limosa after the calamity. She heard about the problems in Gridania with the Ixal and the elementals.

All of these stories were of things she had never seen in her life being on the secluded little island, she let her imagination fill in the details that the sailors would leave out. She would imagine huge bird-like Ixal, the elementals would be puffs of light, wind, water and fire. She would make up songs about the various races and the stories she would hear. It was a lonely and uneventful life filled with adventure in her imagination. She knew from a very young age that she would be going to the mainland when she was ready and she would make her own stories.

She had always been the weird one in the family, while her family, and most of the other inhabitants of the island, worshiped Nophica for fertile lands and a good crop each year, slowly she had turned to Azeyma, the Warden and Goddess of Inquiry. She was always interested in the new stories she would hear at the docks. Her imagination would run wild with images of defending the city from various types of invading monsters she had heard described in those stories. When she was younger she prayed to the goddess to give her more stories and knowledge of the lands beyond the seas. As she got older, those prayers turned to asking for just one chance to venture out beyond the islands and start her own adventures.
