Nashu Mhakaracca is a minor non-playable character in Final Fantasy XIV. She is a female Miqo'te comic-relief character and the sidekick of Hildibrand Manderville. Together they are involved in quests related to the Adventurer's Inn rooms in version 1.xx, and the Inspector Hildibrand story in 2.xx.
Profile
Appearance
Nashu is a female Keeper of the Moon Mi'qote with black hair, grey eyes, with a bandage on her left cheek. She typically wears a pink half-robe with grey stockings and shoes. While believing that Hildibrand died, Nashu changed her attire into a business dress similar to the man with the intent to carry his legacy, but switched back to her old attire after he was revealed to be alive and regained his memory. She reappears in the business suit during the "episode previews."
Personality
While those who meet Hildibrand learn of his idiocy and lack of competence soon after, Nashu is in awe of his "talents" as an investigator. But proving to be as much of a scatterbrain as her employer, taking extremes on matter, Nashu has a fixation on pumpkins and a very short attention span.
Story
Final Fantasy XIV
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn
After Hildebrand was presumed dead following his ill-conceived trip to Dalamud, Nashu resolved to carry out her employer's work as an inspector. With the aid of the Adventurer, she hopes to solve the mystery of the dapper zombies. It is discovered the zombie leader is none other than Hildebrand, who believed himself to be a Zombie due to amnesia. Nashu uses bombs in a risky gambit to restore his memory, which worked. Soon after, Nashu provides Hildibrand with a new set of clothes and resumes her role as his side-kick as he investigates the phantom thief of a thousand faces.
Creation and Development
Both Hildibrand and Nashu were created for the quests required to unlock private Inn rooms, which were released March 8th, 2012 as part of patch 1.21. Due to positive fan reception, they have become recurring characters for Inn-related quests, and reprise in A Realm Reborn as part of their own side story.
Twitter Pages have been made for both Hildibrand and Nashu Mhakaracca.
