23 May 2025 10:28SPOILERS UP TO AND INCLUDING FINAL FANTASY XIV: DAWNTRAIL.
Name: Cain. If pressed, he'll give his last name as Hitlein. This is probably an alias.
Title: The Warrior of Light.
Preferred job:Astrologian. Sage.
Race: Hyur Midlander.
Sex/gender: Male/male.
Sexuality: Anything works for him. Anything.
Age:Late 20s. Early to mid-30s. Rapidly approaching old age.
Nameday: He claims it's the 1st Sun of the 1st Astral Moon.
Guardian: Althyk, the Keeper.
Grand Company: The Maelstrom.
Chocobo's name: Jackpot.
Current residence: Fortemps Manor, the Gold Saucer, an apartment inThe Mist Shirogane, or a private house in Lavender Beds he somehow managed to acquire legitimately. (He also spends way too much time in Amaurot.)
Abridged overview: Cain's backstory, as told by him, is remarkably inconsistent. Sometimes he will claim he was always an adventurer, right from the day he took his first step; it's a poetic tale of humble beginnings and destined ends. At other times, he'll describe how he found his calling during a routine business trip to Ul'dah to sell minerals and ore. The details of his origin story--people, places, even dates--vary across the board depending on whom he's speaking to. Nevertheless, a handful of eyewitnesses can account for Cain arriving in Ul'dah, as many would-be adventurers did, a few years after the Battle of Carteneau. He inquired at the Gladiators' Guild with a significant interest in self-defense over fighting in the arena. He was never too comfortable with being a "tank," but it did feed into his ego and the need to feel important. Awakening the Echo and becoming the Warrior of Light was the shock of a lifetime for him, and not a particularly good one.
