...1....If you were to ask Pawa who she was and where she came from ten times, you would get a different story each time. . Sometimes she comes from a land far away from Eorza, and sometimes she's as local as Ul'dah. Regardless of what story she spins up for you, some key facts seem to stay the same....2.... She seemingly is unfamiliar with the general terminology that is native to Eorza , despite being Miq'ote in origin. On one occasion, Pawa had mixed up Hyurs and Au'ras. She is often unfamilar with the cultures and normal occurences of the people of Eorza, and comes off as foreign.
...3.... Shes a veteran drinker. With how Pawa looks and acts, its strange to think that she is able to hold her own with alcohol. She seems to handle her alcohol a little too well for someone who is supposedly 23....4.... Pawa's sense of time seems to be twisted. Sometimes she repeats stories, and often events seem to overlap. When she does get her timeline straight, often her stories seem to be more lie than truth.
...PERSONALITY.... Pawa's a very bubbly and friendly little miq'ote. A bit mischievous and easy going, but is seemingly very cunning. While she has a cutesy and childish personality and fashion, her eyes often hold a deep sadness that only alcohol and sweets seems to cure. Pawa is often quite flirty, even without the alcohol. Though, a lot of what she says has to be takenOn some days however, there is a different Pawa. This Pawa is devilish, dominant, and arrogant. If you encounter this Pawa, she can be somewhat brash and pompous. She is still easily bribed by the usual sweets and alcohol, but this version of Pawa seems much more truthful and forthcoming.No matter which Pawa you get, she seems to never in the same place twice in one day. Sometimes she works as a maid, and some days she's a dancer, and other days she's a greeter. There seem to be multiple different Pawas present at any given time. Whether it be due to good acting or something else is up to you.
While most of the firey Miq'ote remains a mystery, Pawa had grown up outside of Eorza in a small village. For a few years, she followed in the footsteps of her family and studied in the arts of the pugilist, hoping one day to become a strong monk who could defend her village.When Pawa turned 23, the village was raided and pillaged by a neighboring Hyur kingdom. The scent of burning houses and charring bodies still haunts Pawa to this very day. Separated from her family and afraid, Pawa ran as fast as her little legs could in order to escape the pursuing Hyur.During her escape, she witnessed one of her fellow villagers, an arcanist, be struck down by a very bloodthirsty Hyur. The book that the arcanist used had flown from their hands and landed close to Pawa, causing her to be spotted. Terrified, she picked up the book quickly and tried to flee, but was stopped by the Hyur who had been persuing her.Their gloating faces lit only by the raging fires around them caused Pawa to scream in terror, before opening the book and trying to read out a spell from it. What happened next was a near nuclear-level magical explosion before everything went dark.When Pawa next awoke, she was in a deep crater of what was assumed to be the aftermath of her magic. Surrounding the crater were dozens of Hyur who had witnessed the explosion from afar, but it was not Pawa they were looking at.Above her were complex arcane circles, firing beam after beam of energy towards the invaders. The Hyurs began to retreat, screaming in terror alike to how her villagers had screamed. With them running away, Pawa took the magic tome with her and ran off.After the coast was clear, Pawa finally looked down at the tome she carried. It was different from when she had first picked it up. Confused, she opened it and flipped through the pages, wondering why it looked different. To her surprise, the scribbles of the last user, had vanished, replaced by spells that she could now comprehend.There was one particular spell that caught her eye however. While she couldn't read the name, she decided to read the spell out loud. In an instant, she was teleported to Limsa Lomisa.Shocked, she ran off, trying to find her way back home. Despite all her efforts, reading the same spell only ended with her back in Limsa Lomisa. After a while, she gave up, but was approached by someone. A fellow arcanist, who had recognized her tome as one of her classmates of years gone by.However, something was odd. The arcanist, a Viera who identified themselves as Sheix, said that their classmate had perished in a attack on their village 100 years ago. That couldn't be right, she was JUST at the attack. It couldn't have been 100 years since then!The reality began to dawn on Pawa, it was not just a teleportation spell, she had managed to travel 100 years into the future. Upon realizing this, she frantically flipped through the pages of the book, looking for the spell again, but it was nowhere to be seen. Not only was Pawa away from home, she was 100 years past the original date of the attack. Nothing was familiar about her surroundings anymore.Unsure of what to do next, she followed Shiex into the Arcanist's Guild, where she now studies the arcane arts in hopes of finding means to return back to her original time.

RP Hooks
...ALCOHOL.... Pawa is an alcohol enthusiast. She loves a good drink, and to her, good company comes with good drinks. The stronger the better, but the sweeter the better. If you get her a drink, chances are she might be outdrinking you. Not always however, but Pawa loves a good drinking challenge.
...Sweets.... Sweets are her vice. If you can't bribe her with alcohol, chances are you can get what info you need by offering her some thing super sweet and equally as expensive. Shes chatty and will tell you anything about herself for as long as it takes her to eat her treats....Hyurs.... Pawa doesn't seem to like Hyur's that much. She is civil with Hyurs, but overall tries to stay away from them. Sometimes, it seems like she's more afraid of them than any prejudice. If a Hyur were to buy her alcohol, or sweets, she will open up slightly....Arcane.... She's fully obsessed with arcane and any sort of magical arts. Ever since she arrived in Eorza, she has been obsessed with looking for a spell to return home. If you talk about time magic, her interest will pique and she will talk your ear off....Her Past.... Pawa hates talking about herself. She doesn't like to live in the past (literally). If you try to poke and prod into her personal life that doesn't have to do with alcohol, sweets, or fashion, she will give you the cold shoulder. However, if you share a story that reminds her of her own past, she opens up like a book....Romance Novels/ Stories.... She loves a good romantic story. She always wants to hear the latest tales of the heroic prince who saves the damsel, or the brave gladiator who save her dame. She loves a good dramatic romance, especially when it involves real people.....Gossip.... Pawa wants to keep her fingers on the pulse of what's happening. While pushy, she is constantly researching into current events and venues as well and chatting with locals on their day to day life. It's almost as if she's never seen Eorza before, or maybe just is really new to the area?
