Milleuda was born to a humble family in the mining town of Ala Gannha. She lived a simple life with her parents and elder brother until she was offered a place among the revered Sisterhood of the Unyielding, a local religious sect dedicated to the tenants of Rhalgr the Destroyer. Among the Priestesses, she would develop a fervor and dedication to martial discipline, personal bonds, and national community.This would change with the coming of the Garlean Empire. At the onset of invasion, her Order would be purged and Milleuda was forced to escape to Thanalan like many of her kinsmen. In Ul'dah she would scrape by, ever watchful for Garlean agents seeking to snuff out the spark of devotion while preaching and tending to the vast community of Ala Mhigan expatriates.When the Eorzean Alliance set their sights on liberating Ala Mhigo, Milleuda set forth with them. Along the road to freedom, she would suffer wounds both physical and mental. The Priestess would find that her family were slaughtered along with her fellow Sisters and when the Garleans were eventually pushed out the country the victory would prove a hollow one for the valorous woman. With her family and Order confined to history and her enemy defeated and broken, Milleuda stands on the precipice of great uncertainty.
"All are not equal - neither in life nor after death. Rhalgr's favorites will stand highest in eternity."

Milleuda is a 34 year old Roegadyn of Hellsguard descent. Standing six feet, seven inches tall she stands heads above most Eorzeans that she meets. Her body type is comparatively muscular than most due to her faithful adherence to physical fitness. She has three scars upon her caramel skin, one across her eye and two along her stomach, each earned from her Garlean foes. With heterochromia, as increasingly common in the realm, her hazel and jade eyes are piercing yet full of warmth.Milleuda's soul is a conflicted one, prone to bouts of melancholy as well as mirth. She generally keeps a reserved demeanor in public, though is quick to warm toward others in private. A compliment and kind word come easy and she usually attempts to find the good and true in others. Unfortunately, she is quick to take offense to slights both real and imaginative and is prone to holding grudges.When it comes to dress, Milleuda prefers utility, comfort, and a dash of elegance. It is her belief that one should command attention when they enter the room. Her favorite colors are wine red, forest green, and burnished gold. She is a hearty and social drinker with a love of red wine and whiskey. Baking bread to share with her companions is one of her favorite pastimes, as well as sensual dancing and trading precious gemstones.

"Hear that Priestess? Those notes mean we've arrived at Ghimlyt! Let our allies' hearts soar and our enemies' hearts shatter at the sound!"

"The clamor of the city drowns all voices. But together we can sing a harmony that will resonate from Ala Mhigo's tallest spires to her deepest wells."
