Early Life:
Reid grew up with a twin brother of two loving Miqo'te parents. He grew up with a comfortable life and didn't ask for much as a child. Once the topic of school came up, though, he did everything he could to convince his parents to let him study in Old Sharlayan.
At 14, he finally got his wish and studied there until he was about 18.Young Adult Years:
Once returning to Eorzea, he studied with the Blacksmith's Guild in Limsa Lominsa and resided there for a few years. A certain "incident" during his time there resulted in him taking time to "rediscover" himself and he spent time traveling to Dravania to learn about the Gobbies. He learned what he could about tinkering and smithy from them before returning back to Ul'dah to be with his parents for a while. Eventually he went back to Limsa Lominsa as a teacher for the Guild and at 29 was recruited to work at the Skysteel Manufactory in Ishgard.Current Day:
Sharlayan being the way they are and keeping tabs on their students, eventually contacted Reid in order to present him with the mark of an Archon for his excellence in weapon crafting and smithy. Along side all of this, he has not seen his twin since he left at 14 and he misses him dearly, hoping to reconnect some time soon.
♦Blacksmithing♦
A trained and naturally talented blacksmith who absolutely adores his job. He bounces between teaching classes in Limsa Lomisa and working at the Skysteel Manufactory. He's also learned a bit about the Gobbie was of blacksmithing an adventure in Idyllshire.♦Twin♦
He's a twin with a Viera of a brother named Ichigo, though he doesn't know his brother is currently a Viera since they haven't seen each other since they were 14-ish. Both were born Miqo'te with Keeper/Seeker mix due to their parents.♦Old Sharlayan♦
When he was about 14, Reid managed to get himself a spot at the Studium in Old Sharlayan thanks to his parents connections. He studied there till he was about 17-18.♦Traveling♦
Reid spent a bit of time traveling through Dravania and the surrounding areas. He has been to Ishgard, Ul'dah, Limsa Lominsa, and Idyllshire, but never Gridania (yet).♦Boyband♦
Getting together some friends of his, Reid formed a boyband recently known as Limit Breakerz. They're only just starting out right now.
