This title is awarded to those Grand Company members who have displayed exceptional performance in service of the Immortal Flames. It is hoped that recognizing outstanding individuals in this manner will not only improve company morale, but also provide further motivation for all who fight under the Traders' scales.


* Players whose names are displayed under "Last Week's Heroes" and "Yesterday's Heroes" will not reappear in the same list for a certain duration, regardless of total company seals accumulated, in order to better recognize the efforts of a wider range of individuals.




Using winnings amassed during his reign as gladiator champion, Raubahn Aldynn, the "Bull of Ala Mhigo," purchased the Coliseum in Ul'dah, and by doing so earned himself a place amongst the infamous Syndicate. However, unlike other Syndicate members who, blinded by their wealth, fancy themselves the true leaders of the city-state, Raubahn has remained faithful to the sultanate's nobility, openly pledging his allegiance to the sultana. This is why, after a long hiatus, the ever-popular warrior has returned to aid the young ruler in readying the city-state for the dark days he believes are near.

Realizing that he will more than likely receive little cooperation from his fellow Syndicate members—as ever too occupied with their in-fighting to see that which truly threatens Ul'dah—Raubahn seeks the revival of the Immortal Flames, which under his lead will help protect the sultana and her nation, while sating his thirst for revenge on the Garlean Empire.

Motto: The line between victory and defeat is drawn by the swift and trod by the dead.
Weapons: Tizona─a cursed blade taken from the hands of a former rival after defeating him on the bloodsands.

Much Ado about Aether
As is broadly believed, aether is the essence of existence, the fount of life wherewith the stars stay suspended in the stellar sphere. Bereft of its boon, magic would be naught but a fruit of fiction, and our lives would doubtless detail double the drudgery.

According to ancient Miqo’te mystics, aetheric energy permeates all creation even as it exists in its own distinct dimension, parted from the physical plane. If Eorzea might be compared to a colossal creature, aether would be the lifeblood that courses through its veins, supplying it with sustenance.


The people of the past were adept in the application of aetheric energy. Not only did they possess the proficiency to pinpoint those places with high concentrations of aether; they had the expertise to exploit that power, and thereby created the gateways that allow us to travel tremendous distances in hardly a hairy heartbeat. Thought to have been long lost to mankind, this knowledge is in the midst of a revival, brought about by the beneficent backing of the Circle of Knowing.

Under the supervision of the Sharlayan natives, a plan is in progress to install an intra-city teleportation network. The purpose at present is purely military, but its channeling for civil and commercial use cannot be ruled out as an eventuality.
