Background
An Ishgardian low-born, Brigitte’s mother died at a young age and she never knew her father. She took on odd jobs, learning a variety of skills to survive.Shortly before she left Ishgard, she worked as a server at the Forgotten Knight. In between drunk patrons, she spent time studying to be an astrologian, though they would only ever lend her books on Sharlayan astrology.She decided to leave Ishgard as an adventurer after the end of the Dragonsong War. She used to be occasionally found using a unique deck of cards that used to belong to her mother to tell people’s fortunes to make quick money, but wasn’t always the most accurate in her readings. More recently, she retired that deck and relies solely on her astrologian's deck for readings.When asked, she'll tell you her best abilities are card reading and pouring strong drinks. She's hesitant about cooking as she's unsure of her own abilities even after spending time learning at the culinarian's guild.Generally quiet, Brigitte will sometimes go off into her own little world despite whatever tasks she may be in the middle of, causing others to have to call her back. She can often be found shuffling her cards while on duty if she's bored since she finds the movement soothing.While she prefers to work at venues, sometimes she'll take jobs from her friend, Ketayl, which often let her travel.
