"Nature is an unsentimental creature. She may provide for our every need today, only to take it all away on the morrow."

A rarity in Gridania, Fufucha Fucha is one of few Dunesfolk Lalafell who call the sylvan city-state home. Though born in Thanalan, an Amalj'aa raid forced her from the deserts as a child. Her family found salvation in the Black Shroud, and it is widely believed that she aspired to become master of the Botanists' Guild in order to protect the forest, and repay the goodwill of the forestborn who welcomed her so many summers ago. A hoary sentinel amongst the green saplings she calls her students, Fufucha's youthful countenance belies her forty and four years.

— In-game description

Fufucha is a Lalafell in Old Gridania. She is the guildmaster of the Botanists' Guild and is a primary NPC in the A Realm Reborn and Stormblood botanist quests, and a recurring NPC in the Heavensward quests.

As a pacifist, she is conflicted about the guild's participation in supplying the Gridanian soliders.

Additional Information

Lore

As the master of the Botanists' Guild, Fufucha teaches prospective Botanists how to grow and harvest the bounties of nature, as well as working alongside the other guilds and the Order of the Twin Adder to purify and maintain the Black Shroud. She also helps supply crops and other vital items for the war effort against the Garlean Empire. She enlists the Warrior of Light to help gather what the guild requires for these endeavors. However, Fufucha felt conflicted about assisting the war effort that was actively disturbing the Twelveswood, and considered resigning. Ultimately, she and the Warrior of Light traveled to Coerthas Western Highlands and spoke to Roiteloin, whom she worked with to gather wood to help rebuild the homes that had been damaged or destroyed by the war. Seeing how valuable her work was, she instead decided to stay on as the guildmaster.
