KOYA HEXT
Koya Hext was created, not born. However, they exist in a pre-existing corpse of a Raen woman. There's a lot of story to be told, but little time to tell it.
Koya Himaa was one of seven daughters of a Raen family living in Limsa Lominsa. They had abandoned all of their culture to start an illegal weapons trade business, and most of their clientele happened to be Garlean and Imperial soldier and apologists. Koya, one of the middle children, hoped to escape the legacy of her family's business, and become her own person. At eighteen, Koya left home with high hopes and dreams to become a powerful healer and stop her family.
A Hyur woman named Olina met Koya, and took her under her wing. The two ventured together, Olina training Koya in summoning and healing- but Koya was never satiated. She wanted to learn more. Eventually, Olina was convinced to take Koya to a secret spot where she could teach the young Raen her most powerful ability. Koya Himaa never learned this ability.
For months, the two stayed in a cave outside of Ul'dah, and Olina eventually trapped them both there. Koya attempted to escape to get food, but was told no, and eventually passed away of starvation. Panic stricken, Olina did what Olina knew best, and tried to revive the girl. It did not work, unfortunately, and Olina instead put a carbuncle's summoning stone in the chest cavity where the girl's heart once was, and summoned a carbuncle into the corpse.
Thus, Koya Hext was created.
Koya Hext, the carbuncle, escaped Olina after a fight between the two broke out. Olina Hext attempted to use Koya's aether to keep herself alive, but the carbuncle went rogue under the influence of the thoughts of the dead girl it lived in, and let its summoner die. Then, Koya discovered, they were more than just a corpse.
The rest of the story is complicated, complex, and has lots of twists and turns. From mind reading (see my carrd - starbuncle.carrd.co) to curses placed by ex-girlfriends, Koya Hext lives a very busy life. But they are not ready to stop now. There's still that aspiration of the charming young middle daughter within them, one they cannot explain- and even after becoming a professor in Old Sharlayan, Koya Hext is determined to be a healer that saves the world.
