-- Authors Introduction --

Hey all. So I decided to retrofit my backstory thread into a general thread for my character's history. This is all stuff that can also be found on the wiki but I figured that it would be good to have it here on the forums as well.

Quick note: the prologue has been edited slightly after reading the discussions about Miqo'te lore. I really hope that I'm keeping this very in tune with the lore as far as his backstory goes. I also did some changes to make it read better.

Also, I made him a little older. His current age is now 26 instead of 20, meaning he was about 21 at the time of the Calamity, not 15. I felt this worked better with his story, for what he had accomplished thus far and for what he had yet to accomplish.

Please, let me know what you think!

Born and raised in a relatively small band of the Jackal tribe that made their home deep within the Sagolii Desert, Jâ€™ruzho spent most of his life disconnected from the outside world. With his large, strong build, he was a natural hunter, and would often take down his quarries with his bare hands. After the Calamity destroyed most of their hunting grounds, his band could no longer afford to live in isolation. Jâ€™ruzho was one of the few chosen to assist in negotiations with the city of Ulâ€™dah. Upon laying his eyes on the city for the first time, J'ruzho was struck with sudden awe. The city was grander than anything he could have ever imagined. The walls looked to him like the face of a great mountain. The market was full of wares unlike anything he had seen before. The bustling noise of the busy streets were nearly thunderous. But before he knew it, the negotiations were over and he was on his way back to his band's territory, leaving the city behind.

Years passed. Life eventually returned to normal, the grand city becoming a distant memory. Jâ€™ruzho had returned to his hunting. He showed increasing prowess, until one day he was approached by the band elder. Due to his great strength and skill in hunting, he was to be considered for the role of Nunh. However, he would have to prove himself truly worthy. He thought of what it meant to be Nunh, the honor that all Tia strive for. This was something that he truly wanted. It was then that Jâ€™ruzho remembered the grand city of Ulâ€™dah. He thought of what else he had not experienced in his time with his band, of all the amazing sights he had not seen, of all the quarries he had not the chance to hunt, of all the many things he had not done.

J'ruzho had quickly thought up a way to satisfy both of his desires. And so, he suggested to the elder that he would go out into the world. He would make a name for himself that would be unquestionably worthy of the title and responsibility of Nunh, and he would gain the strength to expand their territory upon his return. The elder found this to be acceptable, and so Jâ€™ruzho set out on his journey.

For strength, glory, and to experience all.

A flyer on the wall of The Quicksand caught J'ruzho's eye. He tore it off to give it a closer look, intrigued at the strange design: on it shown a green plantlike creature with a large, gaping, tooth filled maw, spears pointing in all directions behind it, all of which was atop a wooden shield. The top of the flyer read "The Eorzean Hunter's League". Upon reading further, it seemed to be an advertisement for a group of hunters seeking fortune and/or glory. This was perfect, J'ruzho thought, and he set out right away to find this league so that he may join them on their hunts.

Having found the Hunter's League in their temporary base in Ul'dah, J'ruzho discussed his desire to join with their leader, Khaze'to Zhwan. There was a quick "interview process" - J'ruzho was tasked to hunt a pack of Mongrels. His task was to be overseen by league member Lainseworth Ravencraft. He was given a very odd device he had never seen before, a linkshell, to contact Lainseworth when he was ready. J'ruzho set out to complete this task without hesitation.

J'ruzho successfully completed his task...about five times over. He had forgotten that the Lalafell had to be present before beginning his hunt until having defeated four packs. Despite this slight oversight, he was accepted into the Eorzean Hunter's League. Awaiting further quarries to be tasked to him by the League, J'ruzho decided to continue adventuring in the mean time to find what other new situations he can get himself involved in.
