Giott (Final Fantasy XIV)

Giott is a character from Final Fantasy XIV. Appearing in the Shadowbringers expansion, Giott one of the key characters for healer role questline, and functions as the quest giver for the quest chain. She is the most talented Dwarf in the Tholl, and was tasked with eliminating the Cardinal Virtue Sophrosyne.
==History==
Due to the sins that Lamitt committed and her transformation into Cardinal Virtue Sophrosyne, the Council of Elders of Tholl commissioned Giott to locate and eliminate Sophrosyne.
Her journey took her to the Crystarium where she met the Warrior of Darkness. With the Warrior's help, Giott investigated why Sophrosyne appeared to heal some sin eaters while ignoring others. The Warrior of Darkness through echo had insights into Lamitt's past. Due to the visions, Giott learned that Lamitt was not entirely a shame for the clan: Lamitt had broken traditions to save her people from illness and was eventually exiled along with those she saved for it. Giott theorized that the sin eaters that Sophrosyne was healing were the helmetless dwarves who were exiled with Lamitt and turned by the Flood of Light, and by instinct Sophrosyne was still healing them today.
Giott created a plan to confuse Sophrosyne by placing a dwarf helmet on the sin eaters, but the plan failed and the helmet was broken. Giott decided to break the tradition and removed her own helmet to put it on Sophrosyne. Once Sophrosyne was defeated, Lamitt's spirit appeared. Having broken tradition, Giott left the Tholls.
After Elidibus started impersonating Ardbert, Giott may be one of the characters who visit the Warrior's room at night. Giott learned about the Ascians. Dissatisfied with the situation, she offered encouraging words for the Warrior to do what is right. 
Giott later aided the adventurer and the members of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn in the battle against the spectral Warriors of Light summoned by Elidibus. At some point before Elidibus's final defeat, she encountered the corporeal spirit of Hildibrand Manderville, who was among the spectral Warriors, and mistook him for hostile. She punched him into a cliff wall, where he remained following the starshower.
