I know you're saying she has nothing to do with Yuna from FFX, but...you named her Yuuna and she's dressed in Yuna's outfit. So this is kinda hard to believe.
Quote:Yuuna is the daughter of Alex and Luna Dreamsong, a talented weaver and a talented goldsmith, they open a shop that uses both of their talents which they call Dreamsong. (please correct me on the Garlean lore as I'm hoping that I've got the lore right for this), her parents disappeared when they went to Eorzea when Yuuna had been 16 years old, it had been 5 years since the Calamity, she is now 21 and has become a very successful weaver/goldsmith herself and owner of her parents' shop. She was born an raised on a small island that is located several malms (is that right? Trying to get a good distance from the mainland) off the coast of Othard, the island is called the Kingdom of Rydian.
About this time, the Kingdom holds a ball where she is inadvertently picked as Princess, the details are still a mystery on how she was selected but after being Princess for 2 years, Rydian is prospering under her guidance. Her guardian and chosen future husband, Lord Byron, is her military commander along with Keiki Saito, who is her friend and advisor, they alert her to the Garleans making moves toward their kingdom. Her people care for her so much that they risk everything to save her life.
Okay, here's my second question - you say the island she is on forms the Kingdom of Rydian, and that she became its Princess. However, you also say that she was chosen or elected (this seems to be unclear, tbh). "Kingdom" and "Princess" imply a monarchy. However, monarchies are not democratic. Monarchies generally pass via lineage. So can you expound a bit more on this?
Quote:The garleans arrive and before they can make landfall, the officials and Byron have Yuuna escape on a merchant vessel. She is disguised, however, the garleans seem to know of her escape and have one of their own board the same ship and try to poison her. Somehow she is transformed from Hyur to Au Ra, the only thing that doesn't change is her eye color. She meets up with Yugiri's fleet as they flee Doma and arrives in Ul'dah with the other refugees.
Is she a Hyur or an Au Ra? The pictures seem to indicate she's Hyur. Your text here seems to indicate that she was poisoned (??) and it transformed (??) her into an Au Ra? Am I misunderstanding?
Quote:This is just a brief idea that has been in my head for a while. I've been keeping your advice in my head on what works and what doesn't work. She will be a Summoner/White Mage.
I'll be honest - this gives me real pause. So, in addition to being an accomplished and successful Weaver and Goldsmith, she is also both a Summoner and a White Mage? Both Summoner and White Mage are lost arts. Summoner dates from the Allagan era, and nearly all information about it was lost for quite some time. It is only just now making a small resurgence. White Magic was deliberately hidden for hundreds of years, owing to the abuses of Amdapor, and the Padjal of Gridania are currently restricting who can actually learn Succor. The odds of being accomplished at one are quite slim already. Being accomplished at both almost beggars belief. Being accomplished at Summoner and White Mage and a successful Weaver and a successful Goldsmith is...it's a little over the top. I'm not even going to lie. That's a little too much on one character.
