Some things to consider: Where did your character grow up? Who were your character's family and friends? Where and what did your character study? Where does your character live? What is your character's reason for getting a job at the Curti Center? How has their life on Vaikuntha changed or shaped your character? Any other backstory aspects you would like to explore

Re: QUESTIONS?

Would it be possible to get more details on the rituals and former cultural importance of the Mad’ni Shrine? Tear would be from Myste Aura and starting out with a White Mage job, and the blurb does mention the people going there to purify themselves and strengthen their magic in times past.

We will get a short blurb about the Mad'ni Shrine written up for you when we have the chance.

The Mad’Ni Shrine is built on the ruins of a temple. Most natives of Vaikuntha do not know much about the temple, other than the water from the well having purportedly curative water. It is not magic, just exceptionally pure and healthy, similar to mineral springs on earth. People who go to drink or bath in the water often report feeling strengthened or rejuvenated, although it is not clear how much of that is due to the placebo effect.

Someone who lives nearby or who has researched the shrine might know a little more. The name of the spirit of the shrine has been lost to time, but some of the hymns used in the rituals of the temple have been preserved, passed down through the generations by the shrine workers. Those who work at the shrine assert that the unknown spirit is a benevolent one, not a spirit that needs to be feared or appeased.

One more curious thing about the temple is this- In the wilds surrounding the shrine, there is a high concentration of venomous flora and fauna, but no poison or impurity invades beyond the gates of the shrine.
