Okay, enough about Miranda for now. I've come up with an idea for a character that shares a lot of similarities with her, yet is different in certain ways.
He will be either a Duskwight or Keeper of the Moon who has become an outcast from Gridania due to both his species and the fact he is an Adventurer, and found the Rogue's guild an ideal "haven" due to his skill with weapons and the fact that he tends heavily towards preferring a looser structural organization in general.
My Miranda character eventually will end up meeting him and although their initial relations may be rocky (see below), she would immediately sympathize with him due to her having much the same experience and sharing his bitterness towards the city-state governments in general.
I haven't played through the storyline yet, but I imagine many of you on here have. I've heard reports from those who have played the storyline that the Rogues guild is frequently at odds with the Yellowjackets, which raises one very important question that I need to take into account:
Are the Rogues enemies with the Arcanists as well? It seems like they would be...If so, Miranda would probably have to be a Conjurer, unless I can come up with a very good background story on why these two became close friends.
Of course this does open up a good avenue for an ironic twist of fate, because if Miranda DID choose to switch classes and become an Arcanist, it would have been because she felt that Gridanians in general had failed to live up to their reputation as a peace-loving people and that they lacked the respect for outsiders that the Arcanists showed her - thus, she no longer would have any desire to be bound to serve Gridania as Conjurers (more or less) are. The customs job would have provided Miranda with an alternative to adventuring because Adventurers in general are not well-liked in Eorzea, which as I've already established, is one of the core reasons these two get along well ultimately.
