Scavenger Gr'a
Trash King
"So you're telling me a shrimp fried this rice?"
Gr'a is a predictable miqo'te. He shows up, he eats all the food, says something nobody wants to hear, and leaves.Gr'a would fancy himself a critter of very distinguished tastes... if garbage could be considered as much. The miqo'te finds things worthy of his fascination in the oddest places and squirrels them away in clever stashes all over Eorzea. Everyday refuse is never overlooked by this scrappy, trash-digging scavenger.When he's not keeping his sights peeled for things lost and discarded by those lacking a "discerning eye," Gr'a will usually set out in search of a tasty snack. He will resort to any means necessary to fill his belly, and he's quite persuasive about it too.

He is actually an exceptionally talented survivalist. He knows the ins and outs of living off the land and figured it all out on his own. He's a very experimental miqo'te; he may not figure things out quickly, but he will do it over and over until he makes it work.
No matter how distant, if Gr'a hears music being played he will drop whatever he's doing to find it and listen in an entranced state.
Gr'a prefers to squat, as opposed to sitting on his hind-end.
He used to hate baths with a soul-burning passion, but he's recently come around to the concept of voluntarily getting wet. He now showers regularly! Hooray!
