˗ˋ Desert Flower

Mo'rtajha is part of a small branch of a small tribe that lays claim to Gyr Abanian desert as their home. After spending a lifetime sheltered either in the deep desert or the Black Shroud, Rtajha is settling into life in Eorzea alongside her loved ones and striving to find ways to fit in while exploring the world beyond her former boundaries, to follow more literally in Oschon's footsteps...

"A flower blooming in the desert proves to the world that adversity, no matter how great, can be overcome."

⁽ 01 ⁾ STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND Mo'rtajha's travels into Eorzea have been limited mostly to Gridania, but even then that was highly sheltered. She's socially aware enough to fake it until she makes it, but there's still much and more she doesn't understand about Eorzea and her people.

⁽ 02 ⁾ FLEDGLING HEALER Having studied under her tribe's wisewoman, Mo'rtajha has mastery over the basics of aetherical healing, as well as by less magical means. However she's always keen to learn more or offer her services to those who may have a need!

⁽ 03 ⁾ DESERT CREATURE Having lived in the deepest, most remote deserts of Gyr Abania, Mo'rtajha is adept at surviving where many would surely perish. Her understanding of the forest of the Black Shroud is less by comparison, but many techniques carry over and she's more than willing to share and teach.

⁽ 04 ⁾ A COURSE OF HER OWN Mo'rtajha is stuck between two worlds - her tribal way of living and the world beyond it. She teeters constantly between seeking to do all she can for her family and wanting more for herself. As of the present time, she's exploring parts of Eorzea with her brother, finding most of the wide world equally exciting and baffling.

A vivacious and caring soul, Mo'rtajha appreciates every moment that she possibly can. Life rests on a razor's edge in the desert and the cities can be brutal in their own ways.

Mo'rtajha's earliest memories are those of her tribe and the deep desert that they called home. She recalls time spent with her older brother especially, latching onto those memories after the tribe is scattered to the winds. The horrible day the Empire caught up to this branch of the Mo tribe is a blur, but she never gave up hope that those they lost would some day be found. After fleeing Gyr Abania, the Mo sheltered on the fringes of the Black Shroud, led by their wisewoman, Rtajha's mother.The following years were spent mostly in the deep forest and away from civilization, trying to keep their desert ways as best as they were able. As Rtajha grew so too did her curiosity for the strange lands around her. She would often slip away and watch from the shadows, but just as often she was out on the hunt with her tribe to keep them fed and clothed.After the fall of Baelsar's Wall, the Mo made their way back to their former territory. Many of their hidden shelters had been destroyed, leaving a tribe that already lived on the edge dangling precariously close extinction. Two branches of the Mo joined together, facing bleak prospects on rebuilding their way of life, but they set about it regardless of the struggle.With her brother reunited with the tribe, Rtajha sees a slim chance to carve out a new path for herself and in turn perhaps for the Mo themselves.
