* NiceHat: She has one with a blue feather on it.

* NiceHat: He has a hat with lures on it.

The guildmaster of the Fisherman's Guild. He's a fantastic fisherman whose vast icthylogical knohow is only matched by his irresponsibility and dizzying alliteration.

* BeleagueredAssistant: She would ''like'' to be out fishing as much as Wawalago, but she's the only one experienced and responsible enough to actually manage the guild in his constant absence.
* DudeMagnet: If the Delivery Moogle quests are any indicaiton, she has a number of admirers who consider her a paragon of temperance and Lalafellin beauty. She brushes them off and says there are many other fish in the sea for them to drop a line for.

A reporter for "The Raven," a newspaper in Gridania.

* DarkSecret: [[spoiler:He was originally a member of the Illuminati, but left once their methods became fanatical and xenophobic.]]

* OohMeAccentsSlipping: He's learned to speak the common tongue fluently, though he lapses back into Goblin BuffySpeak when he gets agitated.

'''Discipline''': Fisher]

->''I may not be good at dealing with aether or pressure, but one thing is certain: for Professor Nele's sake, I must not fail. I cannot!''

* FictionalDisability: T'laqua suffers from aether sickness, meaning that any attempt to use aether-based technology that requires one to attune to it will result in intense nausea and vomiting. He lampshades how ironic and inconvenient it is for an aetherologist to have aether sickness, enlisting the Warrior to help him because he can't possibly finish his thesis in time otherwise. [[spoiler:He eventually realizes that he's been using his ailment as an excuse to avoid pushing himself, insisting that he accompany the Warrior on their excursion to Thavnair depsite the immense nausea and vertigo he suffers in the process. His research into treating aetheric sickness in wildlife caused by Zodiark's destruction is also adapted into a medicine to mitigate the effects of aether sickness, allowing him to obtain his own specimens.]]

* BrilliantButLazy: He undoubtedly has the talent required of a Guildmaster, but is far too busy spending his days fishing and womanizing to bother with actually ''running'' the guild.

A master fisher from Ishgard.

* WhosLaughingNow: He says this to Reyna in the Level 53 Fisher quest when the Warrior Light catches 3 HQ icepicks over her two.

* [[spoiler:ProfessionalKiller]]: She moonlights as one of these, and uses the funds gained to fuel her fishing hobby. [[spoiler:Ansaulme's brother tries to order a hit on him, but she refuses.]]

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Despite being a master spearfisher, Govv loses horribly when he challenges the Warrior of Light to a fishing contest in the Fringes. Not because the Warrior of Light is an amazing Fisher, but because Govv lives in the ocean and the subtle differences of fresh water drastically threw him off his game.
* HypocriticalHumor: While visiting the the Kojin village Tamamizu, Govv is quick to point out the ridiculousness of a talking turtle. The Kojin he's talking to is just as amused to have encountered a talking fish.

Alas, Yalana snatched it from me before I could have a little taste..."''

* CantHoldHisLiquor: Sometimes he wishes he could just [[DrowningYourSorrows drink his worries away]]. But he also says that he handles alcohol about as well as he handles aether, which is to say, not very.

* BunnyEarsLawyer: She's spacey, wont to chasing after the Samiel rather than her work as the head of the Facet of Gathering, and prone to fits of spontaneous laughter. But she is exceptionally devoted to her research and has the respect of most of her fellow gatherers as the "Chief".

* PassingTheTorch: After completing his thesis, he becomes a full-fledged professor right after Nele retires, effectively making him his successor.

* WellDoneSonGuy: Downplayed. T'laqua attributes his success to the tutelage of his mentor, Professor Nele. But Nele's high hopes of T'laqua are what get the associate professor's stomach in knots and drive him to try and prove that Nele's faith in him is warranted.
