Whee! I can offer up Kasi as a connection here- she's pretty much concentrated anti-shy as it stands with as obscenely inclusive as she is (kinda have to be as a trader). She's also armed with free food, which usually works to keep people from running away. So, I can think of a few possible encounter scenarios to build a connection off the top of my head between Kasi and Mimifu across a pretty wide range, depending on what appeals most to you!
- Mimifu could encounter Kasi in the Canopy in New Gridania when she visits to check the job board for new mercenary contracts. Kasi usually sticks around a little bit afterward to get some drinks and relax, before moving on. It's a cliche encounter for sure, but it works!Â
- Mimifu could also encounter Kasi out in the wilderness in a few different ways. Kasi does a lot of her own hunting, as well as trading, out in the Shroud. She usually sticks to the Central and South Shrouds, but has occasion to roam more widely for merc work too. She usually tends to camp in the wilderness as well, so if Mimifu is destitute and living in the Shroud, she could run into her like that as well.
- Kasi is, of course, a mercenary, so if Mimifu is looking for a guide or a bodyguard, Kasi has the reputation for being a merc who is unique for always keeping her word. She's had 12 years to build that reputation (and 17 years of combat experience). On the flip side, if someone else took a contract targeting Mimifu (for whatever reason), Kasi could easily turn into an enemy too- granted that she has her own personal honor code and isn't going to strike a defenseless person.Â
- Kasi is also best classified as an anti-hero; she has the potential to be a corrupting influence and even potentially a mentor, but it takes some effort for her to warm up to non-Miqo'te.
