Sine Moshantu (real name, Sine Donoghue), my Warrior of Light. Half-Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te, half-Highlander Hyur courtesy of her parents Aislin and Marii, and basically born on the road due to her parents both being powerful and storied adventurers. Sine specializes in Arcanima, particularly as a Scholar, but dabbles in numerous other jobs and disciplines (though she's recently taken to the Viper job). Taller than your average Miqo'te, but otherwise indistinguishable at a surface level (though anyone paying close attention to her skeletal structure and body proportions may note a very Hyur-like ratio to her); due to the stigma against half-breeds, she's kept this fact about herself a secret long to the point beyond anyone caring due to her heroics, purely out of that baked-in discrimination. Even the Scions of the Seventh Dawn didn't really find out until the events of Stormblood, when they finally learned Sine is Aislin and Marii's eldest daughter.
Solomina al-Amin, an Elezen from the port city of Valnain in Dalmasca, with the unique job of "Archmagus" (functioning similarly to a certain NPC's own All-Rounder job - as a Tank, she fights similarly to a Dark Knight. As a DPS, she's a mix of Black Mage and Summoner. And, as a Healer, she's a mix of White Mage and Scholar). Fleeing her hometown as a young teenager when the Garlean Empire invaded Dalmasca, the ship she and her family were on was sunk by Garlean ships, causing her to wash up on the shores of Radz-at-Han alone. Eventually, she found her way to Sharlayan, where she found admittance to their academy; her intellect, skill with various types of magicks, and various contributions to the studies of multiple fields earned her the title of "Ultimecia, Sorceress of Eternity". Far less known is that she's a close friend of Aislin and Marii's, and after their disappearance following the Battle of Carteneau, Solomina took up the duty of raising Sine for the next five years, teaching her what she could about life on the road and leaving Sine to self-teach herself Arcanima from Solomina's books, before the two parted ways so Sine could make her own way through the world.
Jing Yuan, a Raen Au Ra who lives atop an isolated mountain in the Azim Steppe - unusual in the fact that the primary inhabitants of the Steppe are the Xaela Au Ra tribes. Jing Yuan serves as an alternative Monk trainer, or better yet, the teacher for her own unique job, the (Drunken) "Master", where she teaches spiritual control over physical might. By dulling one's senses with alcohol (or similar substances), Jing Yuan teaches one to rely less on how they perceive and interact with the physical world, and work more with their sixth sense and spiritual forces. Though she and the occasional student she teaches now and then may look like stumbling messes in a fight, they prove exceptionally dangerous, enough so that the rare Xaela chosen to be her pupil every decade or so becomes a legendary hero among the tribes.
Oh, and she's roughly a few hundred years old, according to her own testament, as true masters of her discipline can supposedly even halt their own aging process.
Minerva Galvus (formerly Minerva wir Galvus), a former Garlean princess from a distant branch family, with barely any claim to the Garlean throne. In fact, her branch of the family in fact supported the Populares, a political faction within Garlemald that opposed their nation's warmongering ways and sought peaceful accord with their neighbors after establishing their security long ago, and Minerva was no different. Serving as a military engineer officer in hopes of making a positive difference, Minerva found that her efforts did little, even as a member of the royal family, and so after leaving the military, abandoned Garlemald entirely out of disgust - only to end up in Ishgard, where she was captured as a prisoner. However, earning the goodwill with the Knight Commander of Ishgard (who already had a history of working with Garlean defectors) with promises of using her knowledge of Garlean magitek to support Ishgard's war with Dravania, Minerva discarded her royal status and effectively became a full member of Ishgard's military, eventually working her way to becoming the captain of her own squad of scouts, and even assisting one Stephanivien Haillenarte with the pioneering of the Machinist job, adapting Magitek for use by the Eorzean races.
