I want this ginger hair colour for Hyurs. It is quite stupid how we can't get this colour after all this time.

Heck it, have more self-indulgent ship-art.

LMAO I'm honestly surprised my computer could run the game at all (my graphics card ain't even the minimum requirements)

But look at Jarvis!!! Honestly he looks pretty damn good in the graphics update. I'm happy!

granson's section in encyclopedia eorzea 3!! his blade having such a sweet history was unexpected ahhh he bought it for a song?? his wife fixed it up??? god this makes it so much more tragic that he used it for self-harm

i did expect him to be 28 (milinda died a year before we met him, btw) also, love his name. "ketch" is a type of sailing vessel and "thane" is a free retainer of a lord (per merriam-webster). very middle english! i suppose that'd be the culture of kholusian humes

i got this from twitter so if anyone has more role quest characters lore please do share them ;w; i want to know more about my friends

Awwh the surprise reward of the newest Tataru quest is a portrait of Gaius and his dead children + the remaining one.

Meowdred who despises the ex-imperialist piece of shit and still haven't forgiven him and ALSO hates him like a twisted reflection:

Have officially entered my villain era, aka the era of rude players no longer getting the benefit of my wonderful, powerful White Mage healing spells.

TL;DR: Better have packed potions if you're going to talk smack about the healer.

(Also, reminder, somewhere in the range of 95% of my interactions with tanks and DPS players are lovely experiences, the vast majority of you are fantastic, skilled players who I appreciate very much when I play a healer! It's when other players are actively rude that I get annoyed.)

“shb was the expac about love” they are ALL about love... TO ME

I've fallen too deep into this game

hrothtober day 14 - childhood

"--he's been crying all day, the poor kid. they're saying his home nation, uh, bosch-yah or somesuch, got blown to pieces."

Carmine has had... a day.

Highlight was when I wanted to exit a duty fight but the game said "you're not allowed to leave" and I said "the fuck I'm not" and pulled my PC's power cable, you're not the boss of me

Did they ever explain what a Lunar primal is?

oh d’alia has not been doing so hot during the garlemald arc, not one bit. she knows better than to give into naïve hope and idealism by this point, a lesson that the banquet and dragonsong war taught her painfully well, but it’s a harsh perspective shift; she’s been lauded as eorzea’s champion for years, as savior to ishgard, to ala mhigo, to doma, and even the entirety of the first, but to these people, she’s the enemy, monstrous and a symbol of everything that threatens what has been instilled into them so keenly that they refuse her help, would rather succumb to the cold and starvation and animal attacks than accept it even amidst the tempering crisis. and possibly worst of all for her to comprehend is that the garlean citizens fear her, not unlike the terror she knew at only 13 summers when the black wolf invaded mor dhona and she fled her home territory when it wrought a battle that altered the land; it’s not the same and she knows it’s not, but the garleans see her presence no differently, and it’s hard to take, especially when she and the others in the contingent only want to aid them.

hello! If you're still open for them- 27, 33 and 34 for the character asks? :)

I am, thank you for the ask!

1. How does your character view themselves? (Expectations, intelligence, confidence, self-belief, etc.)

While she knows that she has an above average skill in white magic, she still doesn't see herself as some great, all powerful mage. Perhaps because of her mindfulness of respecting the land and its aether she rarely ever takes more then what is needed when healing or in combat- the latter something she rarely sees on an actual high stakes level to require her to reach her limits. She knows that she is strong, but knowing how physically weak she is compared to most fighters theirs always the small voice that reminds her she'd be rather helpless in the right circumstances.

Apperance wise she sees herself as fairly average and plain- not in a bad way, but considering she wears little makeup (usually just a lipstick) and has very few pieces of jewelry or lavish clothing it's just a matter of fact to her. When it comes to intelligence however she believe herself to have a rather good knowledge. Nothing incredibly scholarly or worldy but in the fields she's required to know stuff in; she knows it well. Magical and physical healing, survivial skills, local history, hunting and tracking (mostly on those last three, amnesia is a bitch), she's confident she's more then just a novice in those areas.

However she also didn't know what a train was until about a year ago but- we all have our faults

33. What are three positive traits your character has?

Willing to give most people second chances. Nuturing and caring nature. Sticks to her values and easily resists temptations of power or evils. By extension is very loyal to those around her, which to point 1 and 3 can be a detriment (but i'll bring that up in the negative traits)

34. What are three negative traits your character has?

Easily paranoid and prone to depression, the former has caused her to seclude herself after giving birth, fearing that someone would take her son or harm him if she let him out of her sight (her husband had only died 6 or so months prior to his birth).

Sometimes too stuck in her values, she see's most if not all Black magic as a negative. This stems mostly from what she's learned as a white mage and the history of the Twelveswood/Amdapor.

You could see this as a negative or positive trait but becuse of her caring and loyal nature, combined with her willingness to give others second chances can be a detriment to her. Giving a second chance to a friend in need to who is trying to redeem themself but will only lead her into further danger; yet she does not want to just abandon them when they still need help even after she's been hurt. She's not gullible or naive- simply unable to give up on others at times.

For FFxIvWrite2022 Characters: Dubus Warnings: None

He stretched his arms wide, letting the wind catch his coat.

The wild waves sprayed Dubus with droplets of water as the ship cut through the sea and it made him grin widely in delight. Nearly breaking into a laugh at the feeling it brought him. Memories from times long ago, the excitement when he first saw the sea, first set foot on a ship, when he was completely surrounded by his beloved horizon. The pure joy of endless options with mystery adventures down every single path, the freedom of the sea.

Though the sun shone bright on a beautiful day the winds blew up a storm and Dubus had to kneel back down on the bowsprit to avoid losing his balance completely and topple into the blue. However he’d soon rise back to his feet with arms stretched wide, “soar” across the ocean towards his next destination. For as long as he could he’d balance there, until the crewmembers barked at him to get back down on deck like a sensible person.

There was nothing more delightful to Dubus than travelling by ship.
