Preference: StraightHanon was born in Ala Mhigo, the exact location of her tribe is largely unknown but it is thought to have been west of the Ala Mihgan Quarter. She was always told by her mother growing up that her father was part of the Ala Mihgan resistance, a group that fought to end the occupation of the Garlean Empire. He was also the Nuhn of their small tribe, losing his life while leading an effort to recapture an important trading route to restore supplies to his people. Devastated, Hanon's mother whisked her young child away to the Far East, where her own mother had brought her as a child. Hanon's mother settled them in the fishing village of Isari and quickly began to work to support her growing child. To establish a new life, Hanon's mother erased their clan names, giving themselves eastern names.Around the age of 4 Hanon's mother married a local hyur by the name of Katsuoi Shinji, a fisherman by trade and a leader in the Doman Resistance, a group working to end the Garlean occupation of Doma and its surrounding areas. Shortly after Masaomi was born, a hyur Miqo hybrid. Hanon adored her younger brother and made sure that he was always happy and taken care of. Despite the turmoil that wreaked havoc over the lands, the little family lived happily for many years. It was about this time that Hanon began to see that she did not resemble a normal miqo'te. She was much taller, more musclar. Sporting the same bushy tail and ears as a typical miqo'te; the birth of her brother brought the thought on: who was her father?At age 14 Hanon set out to Yanxia to work in the rice fields, leaving behind her family for the time being to help support them. There she met a few fighters for the Doman resistance and began to train to fight in the cause. Through the years Hanon had seen first hand the atrocities commited by the Garleans and though the people of this land were not her kin, they were her family, and she would fight to free them so they might live a peaceful life. This is where she met Mizuki, a peculiar purple skin auri girl with ears and horns. The two became quick friends. While out in the fields they were attacked by a pair of Garlean soldiers, one equipped with a prototype weapon that disrupts one's aether. Hanon was struck with this weapon sustaining deep burn scars to the majority of her left side. The garleans were quickly subdued by nearby soldiers and Hanon was rushed to the medbay. She was on deaths door, her body unable to sustain itself without the access to her astral aspected aether. Mizuki attempted to heal Hanon with her arcane abilities but her Umbral aether only served to corrupt Hanon's. With no other choice the young half-dragon sealed the yougn miqo's aether. Leaving her alive but no longer able to access her own arcane abilities.At age 16 Hanon joined the battle for Bozja. A war zone ravaged by the garleans. The young miqo'te knack for remaining hidden in plain sight was useful to the legion commanders and she was used to gather intel. It was in these fire scorthed lands that she met Gin, a veena fighter. Gin's squad was one that would go in on the front lines, defending against the never ending press of the Garlean empire. Hanon quickly fell in love with Gin, admiring his strength and ferocity in fighting for a land that was not his own. Much like herself.During the night a band of Garlean foot soldiers attacked a camp while Gin and his patrol here resting. The viera and his crew did their best to fend off the attack, both sides sustaining heavy causualties. Hanon, who was scouting in the area saw the commotion and attempted to aid. She was attacked from behind, suffering a major injury that left her weak and defensless. Gin intercepted a follow up attack only to be struck down right before her very eyes. Unable to handle the sudden loss of her love, Hanon succumbed to her rage fueled by her alreay unstable aether. She slaightered the remaining foot soliders.She left the field shortly after that night, traveling to Thavnair in search of purpose. She carried at her side the sword Gin had used in battle. Enlisting in the services of the Forum, a connection she made through her good friend Mizuki Hanon spent the next several years deep in the thick of mercenary work. In her travels she picked up the knowledge to repair her weapons and armor. Which came in handy for quick on the go repairs in the field. After some time she came under the tutilege of an Elezen couple in Ishgard who taught her the ins and out of blacksmithing and armor craft. After a short time she opened her own shop in Empyreum supplying weapons to the Knights of the Round and surrounding city states.Today she resides in Shirogane. Where she has set up an additional shop int he far East.

Sexual orientation: StraightHanon, who is decendent from the Lynx tribe, sports a much broader pair of ears than most miqo and a rather fluffy tail, which she inherited from her mother. Like the majority of the kin she has marks on her cheeks, signifying her descendants from the Seeker of the Sun clans. Having found someone in Tuliyollal that could removed her pervious tattoos, intricate designs that spanned most of her body in a symetrical style, she now sports colorful tattoos that have a less eastern feel to them, tribal in nature. The intricate designs adorn her back in swirls of blue and black. She was born with bicolored eyes of an unnatural hue and to this day it is largely unknown as to why her appearance differs so much from her kin. Hanon is often seen in leggings and a button up long sleeved top, though she tries out different styles through the help of her closest friend, who happens to be a seamstress.Hanon recently cut her hair short into a choppy bob after returning from Tuliyollal. There is no one particular reason for this other than she prefers her hair to not be in her face. She is also significantly taller than most miqo.In an incident when she was training to fight in the Doman War, she suffered a cut to her face, just below her eyes and across the bridge of her nose. The cut left a deep scar.
Hanon isn't shy by any means and could talk your ear off if approached, but she is cautious of getting close to people. The loss of her fiancé, Gin, right before her eyes tainted her view on love. Since that day she has let very few people into her inner circle. She keeps an open mind and respects that not everyone shares her views, though some topics she could get a little heated with when discussing.She has a zero tolerance for hate and is quick to defend anyone that is being shown disrespect. Hanon loves the few friends she has dearly and will protect them with a ferocity unlike her small stature.While Hanon may look like a sweet angel she is not one to shy away from a good fight. She lives for battle.
Mizuki TsukiakariHanon and Mizuki met by chance at a bar in Shirogane. The two were instant friends and spent many nights sharing war stories over a glass of fine Whiskey. When Hanon left The Far East after the Doman War concluded, she fell out of touch with Mizu, until the two came across each other once more in the icey lands of Coerthas, working in Ishgard. Their time spent there only grew their bond and they became like sisters, inseparable. Mizu and Hanon are often out working mercenary jobs or exploring the night life in the cities.
