Courier Days
Rauni cut her teeth as a courier working for various companies during her youth, but this career culminated with the Bellveil Courier Company. Working for the BCC, Rauni established connections in Gridania, Limsa Lominsa, and Ul'dah. Alongside her beloved chocobo Bubbles, she would run this route between the three city-states on a regular basis, delivering packages to people from all walks of life! There is a very good chance that you saw this catte on the road, and you might even know her from those days!Child of Fhey
Q'rauni Fhey is the child of Q'fhey Tia, an arrogant Tia from the Q tribe in La Noscea who thought he could put the tribe's Nunh in his place. This did not happen, and as a result, Q'fhey and his child, Q'rauni, were exiled. Q'fhey took up a nomadic life from then on, working as a courier and eventually training Rauni to do the same job. They were a team for Rauni's entire adolesence and she thought it would be that way forever. But after Rauni came of age, Fhey - assuming that she no longer needed him - disappeared to who knows where, leaving behind only his trusty courier's cap. Have you met Q'fhey Tia? Perhaps you and Rauni share something in common....Shirokaze vs. Yakuza
Recently, the crew of the Shirokaze was revealed to be infiltrated by a member of a Hingan Yakuza - Esuh'ra Jinjal - who had served on the ship as Gunner for nearly a year. His betrayal was brought to light when he murdered their boatswain - Gigisu Gisu, and fled with the ship and its valued cargo alongside the Yakuza leader Nobuyuki Takeya. Though the Yakuza was defeated and subsequently disbanded when its leader disappeared, the Shirokaze crew is nonetheless still reeling and recovering from this horrendous betrayal.

Captain Ranneko (蘭猫船長)
Whispers on the wind of the Far East say that the pirate Captain Ranneko has been making a name for herself in the Far Eastern skies, though no one ever seems to get the details lined up. Regardless, what is known about her is that - for an upstart pirate - she seems to have a stranglehold in a number of areas. People can't help but wonder if perhaps she has a more seasoned criminal in her pocket. More recently, she stole a ship and its cargo from the East Aldenard Trading Company, and there's a 4 million gil bounty on her head.
