"[I] had intended little more than to be a guide and teacher again, but a teacher always has lessons to learn..." -Renamo Namo (he/him)
Possessed of generational talent and the drive to pursue it, Renamo holds incredible sway magically and politically, both upon this star and its reflections. His mastery of Arcanima is second to none among the living, and has been put to use to leave the world a better place than he found it—peacefully or otherwise.
Behind the exterior of a demigod of a magician is a much more down to earth man; a father and teacher who craves more than anything to aid his only daughter in growing to the full heights of her potential. If he is there to see it is of no consequence.

Renamo is the eldest child of a Lominsan merchant and a noblewoman of Ul lineage, and thus claims both Plainsfolk and Dunesfolk ancestry. Indeed, as the first child of incredible wealth, he enjoyed a wide variety of opportunities that most could only dream of. His only problem, then, was that he was not born a man. He would leave home suddenly not long after his eighteenth birthday, going to Limsa Lominsa proper to begin a new life.
That new life, of course, came with some caveats. For one, showing up to the Arcanist's Guild without a name meant he had to come up with one on the spot, one he's stuck with since even if it sounds strange to other Lalafell. He had to navigate this new life all on his own, taking advantage of the Calamity to help mask his new life. That same event removed much of the existing talent within the guild, leading to him taking on greater and greater responsibilities during his time in the guild, from an advisor to a teacher in his own right.
Ultimately, he would leave to pursue adventure. Before long, he met Ophelia and joined the Scions... though still harboring many attachments to home that would protect him when the Bloody Banquet would happen later.
These connections survived well into Stormblood, where his role in everything from Operation Archon to the battles in the Ghimlyt Dark would cause him to climb to the rank of Storm Commander. He would retire at this rank after his time in Norvrandt.
His time in the Crystarium gave him a new home and a new purpose, a place that needed to be maintained and a new generation on the horizon that would need guidance to stay its course as a beacon of light in the First. But, much more importantly to him than that, he found a life companion in Giott of the Tholl. Their marriage was Renamo's spark to get his affairs in the Source in order, including stepping away from the Maelstrom.
However, thus arose a desire. Renamo wanted a child. He and Giott couldn't have a biological child, so he took other avenues, ultimately settling on repurposing Allagan cloning technology to "clone" himself and Giott into one new person.
Thus, he found a purpose all his own, devoid of grand aspirations or any worldwide acclaim. A miracle child he could have never anticipated when he ran from home over a decade ago.
Though he intended to stay in Norvrandt for the foreseeable future, fate had other plans in store for him. A journey to Tural that started as a "simple trip" and spiraled into a year long affair, reconnecting with his parents, and now the looming threat of the Solstice.
Having taken the mantle of Azem in Ophelia's absence after Dawntrail, Renamo labors to find a way to save his homes, new and old, even as the candle of his life threatens to be cut short.
