I think what that really translates to is I want the charact to have a sense of longing for something he can never truely regain.
That in itself could lead to interesting RP situations, of course, so if you're cool with that, then go for it.
Hes stuck with what he has and what he can make for himself and he rises to the challenge. Perhaps as a first step he takes odd iobs around Eorzea to make gil and secure himself enough to start searching for answers(RP excuse to try all the crafts lol).
I also dont know if I would ever fully reveal his other wordliness if I go that route, it would be more a sense of loss and failure, like knowing that you can never say goodbye to someone close to you because they are already gone. It would be an internal driving force that would bleed into the world of Eorzea(Such as my learning about the world while playing).
So maybe i could incorperate the spirit of this idea as more of a reincarnation idea, where he built a life in Eorzea, was born there, loved and lost. Use the Seventh Umbral as a point where a spark of his soul calls him to be more than he has been, due to a great loss.
Just fyi Im loving this, I like fedback to really develop a character that will work in the community.
