{The following is a historical record and psychological profile Eirikir Lumiere Mynhier, here after refered to as “Subject” or “Mynhier”.}
Mynhier was born in the Gyr Abanian capitol city of Ala Mhigo in the year 1544 to Ulrich Mynhier (FILE NOTE: Subject’s father was a member of the Corpse Brigade, investigation into possible compromise found no unusual activity.) and Heather (nee. Fortemps) Mynhier.
In 1557 Subject was present for the Imperial invasion of Ala Mhigo. (FILE NOTE: Despite severe trauma at the hands of the Garlean Empire as well as numerous direct and clandestine encounters which have see the Subject receive many commendations, Subject’s spouse is a known former Imperial Operative currently allied to the Sultanate Government, made possible by an arrangement from Immortal Flames in exchange for tactical and technical information.) It was during the city’s counter offensive Subject’s father was killed.
One of the Subject’s two known siblings (Tietra Mynhier) was lost during the invasion. Subject’s mother extracted Mynhier, as well as, according to record, Subject’s maternal grandfather (Tellah Fortemps {FILE NOTE: Data Classified}), as well as two children from another family who lived in the Subject’s household, Cian Cadmus (FILE NOTE: Second Flame Lieutenant, MIA, medical test confirm Cain Cadmus shares fraternity with Mynhier through the Subject’s father.) and Lenna Cadmus. Subject’s mother was also responsible for bringing all listed to Gridania and negotiating sanctuary for the survivors with Stillglade Fane.
In 1560 Subject left The Black Shroud and relocated to Ul'dah, joining a mercenary unit (Crimson Watch) based there. Subject served with distinction both before and after sanctioned ties were established with the Sultanate Government. After sanctioned status, the unit’s specialty of covert action attracted the attention of the Thanalanian government, and the Subject’s record was reviewed and marked for possible commission with the implementation and resurrection of the Immortal Flames.
During this time the Subject’s was implemented in operations including the invasion of Castrum Novum (Operation Details: CLASSIFIED), as well as the Battle at Carteneau (Operation Details: CLASSIFIED). The results of the Carteneau lead to the full sanctioned status of the Crimson Watch, with full integration of the unit and the majority of its staff into the Immortal Flames. Subject’s rank prior to the integration (First Lieutenant) was carried over (First Flame Lieutenant). Subsequently the death of the Commanding Officer of the Crimson Watch, Ser. Juliette Monroe (Sultansworn, Posthumous: Flame Captain) as a result of the battle, making the Subject’s rank Flame Captain and granting command of the unit via Field Promotion.
The Crimson Watch was reorganized immediately, and re-designated Immortal Flames Squadron Red (later Immortal Flames Air Squadron Red), know by the unit’s handle designation “The Red Wings”. The primary missions following Immortal Flames integration were and are covert in nature, however over time the unit has changed and expanded in mission with the introduction of the unit’s five airships as well as technology and expertise obtained from the unit’s clandestine activities on behalf of IF Command and the Sultanate Government.
(UPDATE): Following the events of Operation: Black Eagle (Operation Details: CLASSIFIED), Subject and his remaining unit were granted permission to open selective recruitment.
The Subject has through both military experience as well as academic pursuits, has become very well educated. Maintaining a large base of general knowledge, Subject counts their primary subject mastery as Aeronautics, Military Tactics, Alchemy, and Geological Survey. The subject also maintains basic knowledge in Mammet Theory, Void Theory, Undead Theory, Conjury, and Industrial Manufacturing.
As of this date, Subject maintains a Master rank in the Alchemist Guild of Ul’dah. This rank was achieved following the Calamity. After his induction to the Immortal Flames and promotion to Flame Captain, Subject felt it was wise to “round himself out” beyond military knowledge and began to pursue teachers and classes in his spare time. It was during this time he began his studies in the Alchemist Guild, reaching the rank of Master five years later. (NOTE: Subject’s rank in the guild allowed him to enter his daughter into the guild, who has since become a medical doctor) Subject’s chemical specialty is in a non-medical branch, industrial chemicals and compound reactions.
Both Aeronautics and Military Tactics are an obvious result of his military career. Aeronautics was due in large part to his Unit’s high use of airships. While his Military Tactics, his knowledge of various weapons, as well as large and small strategies are all a result of various commanders, trainers, and leaders through his career.
Geological Survey however is both military and academic in origin. Geology became important to his duties for a year when his unit acted as an engineer corp aiding in natural disasters. To further his knowledge he sought study with the Miner’s Guild, gaining a mastery of land surveying and a basic understanding of geology in general.
Of his lesser knowledge, Mammet Theory is his favored subject. Beginning study at the Goldsmith Guild of Ul’dah as early as seventeen years old, due entirely to his encountering of, and befriending of the mammet Montblanc. Void and Undead Theory are required learning for any armed member of the Sultanate due to the high rate of encounter in Thanalan. Subject studied both subjects in the Arrzaneth Ossuary and the Sultansworn Headquarters respectfully.
His knowledge of Conjury is due entirely to his mother who was a member of the Conjurer’s Guild in Gridania for three years and a long practicing Conjurer before that.
The Subject maintains multiple duties tied to his service indirectly. These duties include, but are not limited to maintaining security of high level cargo, consulting the various Guilds of Ul’dah on request of Flame Command, maintaining open supply and diplomatic lines with contacts in the “Brothers of Ash”, and maintaining active support services (commissary, exchange, chaplain, shipping, postal, banking, and medical services) in his base of operations, Baron Hall.
{Due to the Subject’s unit’s technical expertise, Subject has been augmented using experimental technology based off of Garlean technology, due entirely to combat injuries.
Subject is also in possession of various devices, also based almost entirely by Garlean technology. The exception being two devices which use aethernet and linkpearl technology respectively.}
Due to a series of injuries to the Subject, both physical and aetheric, the Subject’s heart had become to damaged to function. Requiring a replacement, a device was developed by the Alchemist Guild under the direction of Lieutenant Eoghan of the Immortal Flames, and Doctor [REDACTED]. Using the aetheric adaptation system used in the Subject’s artificial eye, combined with Garlean medical science, an artificial heart was developed that solves both the issue of pumping blood as well as regulating aether. The heart, nicknamed “The Heart of Stone” by some who worked on the project at the Alchemist Guild, is a marvel of engineering, science, and magic. The inclusion of the new heart has allowed all of the Subjects other augmentations to be re-tuned to the heart allowing for enhanced effects due to a more compatible and direct connection to the Subject’s aether well.
The Subject’s circulatory system is now automatically regulated for top efficiency, allowing the Subject to maintain almost superhyur levels of endurance by means of automatic annalists and corrections of blood pressure, oxygen, and lactic acid levels. This allows the Subject for example to maintain athletic activities for much longer without the need to stop then another of similar build and health.
As for the aetheric regulation, that function is straight forward. Acting like a mammet core or any power regulator in most forms of magitek, the unit prevents and controls power “peaks and valleys”, allowing the Subject full control over their body’s native aether reserves.
During the battle of Ghimlyt Dark, Subject’s injuries and previously damaged aetheric control left him with few options to defend himself. By luck he survived with the aid of a discarded gunblade. Upon return to Ul’dah, and following his medical recovery, the self same gunblade, updated and modified by the Red Wings’ Chief Engineer was gifted to the Subject.
The gunblade, named Grimlock, is an augmented M-XIV Scaevan model, modified to the Subject’s unique physiology. Modifications include use of the Subject’s artificial aether regulating heart for quick cartridge charging, targeting protocol via his artificial eye, an “aether lock” to prevent use of the weapon by anyone but the Owner, as well as other functions deemed classified by Flame Command.
The Subject’s secondary weapon is based off of a Mark-II Garo design. Used as a backup sidearm, the Outsider as its called is far more compact then firearms common to Eorzea. The weapon operates in tandem with a utility pack, as is the case with even common firearms. Like the Grimlock, this weapon interacts with the Subject’s unique body augments in similar ways, including power supply, targeting and owner locking. Of note the utility pack has been enhanced to allow for mammet modification in combat situations
The Subject’s assistant and oldest continually present companion is the mammet Montblanc. The Subject found the mammet during his first mission with the Crimson Watch. Investigating a merchant caravan that had been attacked, Subject found the mammet broken and deactivated. Using free time to study Allagen writings on them and taking up study in the Goldsmith Guild, Mynhier managed to reactivate the mammet a year after finding him. Since then the small being has been a faithful all be it silent partner, due to its damaged and non-operational voice module.
Montblamc’s role in the Red Wings and the Immortal Flames as a whole is as Mynhier’s assistant and company clerk. The mammet is well suited to its purpose, being an expert in correlating, filing, and record keeping. Also it has seen a steady increase in combat due to a device the Red Wings developed that allows for interesting combat applications.
Subject lost their right eye due to a combat injury. An eye was crafted under classified contract with the Alchemist and Goldsmith Guilds under the supervision of the Immortal Flames. The eye is based on aetheric theory and a salvaged Garlean medical scanning device. Called the Long Yield Bilateral Resonance Apparatus or L.Y.B.R.A. for short, the device allows the user to scan a target and receive basic medical information. Though originally for medical use it also has combat potential, such as detecting living organisms hidden by magic, technology, or solid objects with an active range of twenty-five fulms. Once the eye is in place in the socket, its crystalline form self glamours by attuning to the Subject’s aetheric aura, making it look real. The aetheric link also allows the eye to function as a normal eye, granting the Subject 20/20 vision in his right eye.
Hearing Aid/Internal Linkpearl
An implanted linkpearl in the Subject’s right ear that allows for full hands-free use of his pearl, as well as at will enhanced hearing, allowing the Subject to hear at a high distance or pinpoint on a single voice in a crowd. Originally augmented due to hearing loss from a ruptured eardrum, the pearl itself was engineered to be undetectable by common scanning devices, and encrypts communications going in and out. The pearl also has basic tap features, allowing the user to tap into non-encrypted channels. This however requires government sanction.
A company emblem patch worn by members of the unit. Inside it however is a complicated aetheric construct device that utilizes both stored and ambient fire aether to construct what resembles a bird made of fire. The construct is nearly silent and resistant to conventional forms of detection. Though it seems living the construct is not. The ambient aether is used in the formation and no matter how much is present, no amount of aether can extend the charge in the patch. As a result the patch only has enough energy to maintain the construct for six minutes descending, and four minutes ascending, making the constructs only viable as a “ship to shore” transport. After use the patch recharges off the ambient fire aether in the present environment. At maximum charging, ambient charging takes four hours. Charging on a charge device requires only one hour.
A pair of earrings emblazoned with the seal of the Immortal Flames. Both earrings together form a small but powerful explosive device. The right holds half of the chemical mix and the charger, the left the other half and the fuse. Removed and pressed back to back creates the explosive which the Subject can use effectively to enter or exit a structure, remove small threats, or start a larger chain reaction as needed.
A multi functional device that allows the Subject to conjure holographic displays allowing him to see critical data on the fly. Also embedded is a small emergency device that allows the Subject limited access to the Aethernet Teleportation System. The device is limited as in it can only be used in short range (around five hundred yalms) and only to return to an airship equipment with a receiver. It also only maintains enough of a charge for a single one-way use.
A simple ring embedded with a simple heating element powered by a few grains of fire aether crystals. A common issue to Immortal Flames Officers, the self heating ring is used to sign and seal important documents. Subject’s ring has been modified, allowing the ring to burn at a much higher temperature, allowing it to act as a cutting tool.
It is the opinion of this profiler, after reviewing all relevant data that Subject Mynhier is fit for active duty and command. However due to numerous trauma both physical and psychological, it is my recommendations that the Subject be examined fully for any signs of functional deterioration.
Also a full review of First Flame Lieutenants Eoghan and Caladhiel in regards to possible corruption due to their unusual backgrounds as well as any undo sway they may have over the Subject. This seems prudent due to the Subject’s access to classified intelligence.
(UPDATE): Following the events of the Horsemen conflict, Subject’s aether was returned to his original levels, however a large degree of instability as been left. This disability has not effected his physical agility and strength, it has however effected the effectiveness of his aetheric combat skills. Subject has been noted to display random moments of drastic overpowered or under-powered effects and even sudden loss of power. This left Mynhier to his sidearm Outsider and his brute strength following a failure of his aetheric skills in sword and shield, his preferred form of combat. The failure occurred during the Battle at Ghimlyt Dark, nearly leading to Subject’s death, forestalled only by the quick acquisition of an Imperial gunblade.
Injuries during the stated battle have lead to further augmentation of the Subject. Weakening of the Subject’s aetheric control during the Horsemen event as well as the above stated injuries from combat (a grazing of the left atrial chamber of his heart) lead to an elegant solution by the Alchemist Guild and Flame engineers lead by the efforts of the Red Wings’ Chief Engineer. A magitek based artificial heart. Acting as both a biological pump for the Subject’s circulatory system as well as regulator for the Subject’s natural aether.
Due to this unusual situation, it is suggested that Subject be medically evaluated every three moons by the Alchemist Guild and not by his primary physician.
