The Night Circus Occupation: Ribbon Dancer Notes: At the age of 19, Dante ran away from home to join the Night Circus, which she visited with her grandmother as a child.

Final Fantasy XIV Occupation: Astrologian - Machinist - Merchant Race: Xaelan Au Ra Tribe: Borlaaq Notes: Raised in the mountains of the Azim Steppe, Dante began her life as a Bladedancer trainee, learning the ways of the Othardian Reaper.

Her father, born of the Orl tribe, took her with him to Ishgard, where both worked at the Skysteel Manufactory, and where she was able to begin her study of astrology. During this time, she inherited a trading empire, the Sakura Trading Company, from a mysterious client, which prompted her return to The Far East. Together with her business partners, she assists in establishing trade between Yanxia, Othard, Kugane, and the greater part of Eorzea, while strengthening the empire she was given by day, and protecting the Steppe and the surrounding areas by night.
