History[]

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn[]

Slafborn informed the adventurer that a friend of Cid's was waiting in the workshop for them. They were greeted by Jessie who introduced herself as the Deputy President of Garlond Ironworks.

Due to Cid's absence. she had been given the title, and was trying to get the workshop's productivity back up. She requested to see the adventurer's Magitek Armor (mount) to inspire new ideas. She was impressed but disappointed the weapon systems were damaged.

She asked the adventurer to collect parts to fix the Magitek Armor. After returning to her with the parts, she repaired it, allowing the adventurer to fire the weapons. Jessie informed they were not designed for combat (the effect is cosmetic).

Jessie began production of Magitek-enhanced equipment for the adventurer, and struck an exclusivity deal with Rowena to distribute them. The equipment could be purchased with Allagan Tomestone of Poetics in Revenant's Toll.

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood[]

Jessie appeared with Cid and the rest of the Ironworks team investigating Omega. She voiced her displeasure at Cid's usual disregard of their company's well-being, and revealed that in her capacity as Deputy President, she had hired Nero.

Characteristics[]

Appearance[]

Jessie's appearance resembles her Final Fantasy VII counterpart, being a young female Midlander Hyur with brown eyes and brown hair tied into a ponytail.

Personality[]

Though Jessie is a hardworking, dedicated, and loyal member of Garlond Ironworks, she is often more concerned with the expansion, productivity, and general well-being of the business. She is less inclined to use company resources on less profitable endeavors, even if they are for good, or serious causes. This leads her into disagreements with Cid Garlond, who uses his company to aid his friends and allies in the Scions of the Seventh Dawn and the Eorzean Alliance. As a result, Jessie is independent and willing to make decisions without consulting Cid if it means for the betterment of the company, such as hiring Nero tol Scaeva.

During her early years in Garlemald, Jessie despised the patriotic zeal her parents displayed and rebelled, being more than happy to defect to Eorzea.
