⋆ About ⋆

In a time before her current name, the veena now known as Meka resided in Ilsabard, in the capital of the nation of Bozja. She was young but fully grown when Garlemald took root to the north and pushed southward, conquering her home. Despite the hardships, she endured in the enslaved land for decades until the infamous Bozja Incident shattered what precious bits of normalcy she had managed to hold on to. Having been away on business at the time, she was spared its direct ravages, but nevertheless found herself stranded with no home to return to. Taking advantage of the chaos of the aftermath, she fled to the Dalmascan border and kept running, eventually finding a land more or less free of Garlemald's grasp in Hingashi.In the scant few years that followed she fashioned a piece of herself after her new home, taking the surname 'Tsukuyomi' after the moon kami to mark the terrible but tremendous occasion that had so altered the course of her existence. Hesitant to settle anywhere specific again, she took to life on the road, traveling the breadth and width of the Far East but never quite making it back to the Dalmasca-Bozja border, no matter how much her heart ached to do so. Her restless wandering continued until the increasing military presence in the Imperial provinces restricted her movement, shutting her out of Dalmasca and Nagxia entirely and confining her to Othard's easternmost regions.It was then that she started hearing whispers of the Doman Liberation Front and various other pockets of resistance across the provinces - most notably, the Bozjan Resistance. After some digging and proving herself genuine, she was able to assist the Doman Liberation Front - the nearest of such groups to her - in retaking Doma Castle and driving the Empire out of Yanxia. Emboldened after such a success, she attempted to make contact with similar groups in Dalmasca, only to have her hopes shot down when their attempted coup in Rabanastre ended in the city's utter destruction. Nevertheless, she remained close to the fledgling Eastern Alliance, and eventually the news she was hoping to hear arrived - despite the swaths of destruction and Imperial presence between them, the Bozjan Resistance managed to send word: they were ready to begin their own fight, and sought aid.And so she at last returned to her beloved former home, an unrecognized face amongst strangers who never knew her, an unassuming name obscuring the one she'd left behind. Whether or not she was remembered didn't matter though, as only the memory of a verdant land untouched by destruction, just waiting to be raised from the ashes, sang in her soul as she took her place on the front lines. The battles were hard-fought and progress painfully incremental, but at long last - and not without great sacrifice - Bozja found itself free once more. In the relative calm that followed, she finally began to pick up the pieces of her heart that had been scattered to the winds that fateful day, slowly but surely healing the hurts she had been running from ever since she lost everything.

Hi, I'm Meka - not the character, the real one!Mekabun was designed as a self-insert and, to help simplify callouts during raid prog, was bestowed the honor of being the first and only character across any MMO to use my screenname as her own. Since she was literally just a raid alt I viewed her as a non-entity for a long time, just an extension of myself to fantasia and generally muck around with as I saw fit - until I started the Bozja story for her relic weapon and realized I'd accidentally put her in the same coat/dyes as the Bozjan Resistance, and her story began to take shape. Nowadays she's more or less inactive since I raid on my main over on Crystal instead, but from a story-making perspective she's just getting started! :DI'm very easily spooked by actual RP so you'll likely never see me doing anything with her in-game (especially on Aether), but I do like to do character building and IC gpose things with her over on my Tumblr, so feel free to stop by and check things out if you feel like it!
