We need the obligatory white mage hero in our lore.

Her only real skill growing up was her dabbling in magic, taught to her by her late parents. They had died in the very beginning of the Eidolan War, when an assault on the capital city resulted in civilian casualties. Jieun found herself torn apart by what had happened to her family and what the world was coming to. She felt lost in an ocean of darkness clouding her heart for years, but she eventually finally found herself in her twenties when she decided to hone her magical skills to help people who had been hurt like her family had been. The one thing she had held onto after losing her family was the magic they had taught her, and in that way, her spells were her hope. And so that’s the only thing she clung to. Though she was technically taught the basics of all kinds of magic, after the trauma of losing her parents Jieun only wished for nobody else to feel that kind of pain, and expanding her healing magic repertoire as much as possible. focused on becoming She progressed as a mage in her early twenties, working whatever odd jobs she could to fund herself as she travelled everywhere she could in hopes of improving her skills and learning whatever she could. While she mainly stayed in Songdae in this period, the most valuable places to her where the political centers and tourist hotspots which often brought in foreign talent that she could learn from. Through her life-consuming pursuit of knowledge, she became an incredible skilled practitioner of white magic, and by the end of these initial travels, she was a relatively well-renowned white mage and doctor. Over the latter half of her twenties, Jieun slowly became more and more famous for her extraordinary acts of healing and altruism, often showing up many other doctors by curing the incurable, providing care for those who could not afford the affluent city costs, and adamantly standing up for those who’ve been hurt by either the rising political tensions or their own private trauma. By the time she hit 30, Jieun was considered a cultural icon of hope for the citizens of Songdae, and when the war broke out she was one of the biggest voice advocating for peace and safety for all the peoples of the world. Though many governments despised her for getting in the way of their plans with her following of those who believed in her message of peace, and many times she was never welcomed by the people, she travelled the world trying to instill a sense of hope while also doing what she can to help everyone by working to give relief to all the civilian lives damaged by war and disaster. It is through these worldly travels that she truly honed her magical skills to their utmost limits, and in doing so she eventually convened with the Iconoclasts. [b]Personality:[/b] As a beacon of hope and kindness, one would usually expect her to be a gentle and calm soul who acts in a cautious and pacifist manner. While not necessarily false, many are, while not exactly complaining, surprised when they first meet her due to a flaring temper and the aggressive way she pursues her goals. She’s a very determined woman, often making a figurative B-line for all her goals. In that way, often times her biggest flaw is that she’s very stubborn and uncompromising. It works out usually regardless, due to her humanitarian and inclusive goals and ambitions, but there’s always someone who gets the shaft and as such you either love her or hate her, no inbetween. In other words, she gets shit done and nobody will stand in her way. Maybe she could learn to listen to others a little bit more though... [b]Class:[/b] Radiant Mage [b]Abilities:[/b] Similar to a white mage, Jieun has extremely powerful healing magic that can cure even the most grave of wounds given time and focus. Though she can not bring back the dead as a result of the limits of nature, she can fix any status ailment and keep the party alive with ease. To complement this, she also has a smaller repertoire of buffs and shields that can be used to keep the party going longer before needing to back off. Finally, in cases where her heals won’t be of much use, she has extremely powerful offensive white magic up in her sleeve in the form of various Holy-type spells that can be used to nuke the enemy. Her strongest skill, Radiant Light, obliterates the enemy with what some describe as the power of the sun itself, but using such a spell would either severely debilitate her or kill her if in a weakened state.[/hider]
