What's your character's backstory/lore?

[NegativeS]

My character is a WoW dwarf piloting an elaborate mechanical suit. That's why he mostly nods and emotes instead of actually talking; a single "Interest ya in a pint?" would blow his cover almost immediately.

His mission: To find the Shadowbringer so that he or she can bring the Shadow back to the Shadowlands, since Blizzard forgot to add it during development.

Thus far the mission has been a failure, as he is trying and failing to keep a low profile due to the majority of NPCs believing that he is the Shadowbringer (despite doing a lot more light removing than shadow bringing). However not all is lost, as his secondary objective of simply making a new life for himself in Eorzea is going swimmingly.
