all the love in the world to my philosophy professor who i enjoyed the classes of but every time steven pinker does something i feel vindicated of how unfairly i read him and do not regret doing so

tisire was definitely made to rest immediately which she didn't really have the capacity to fight at that point. everyone else was already really weary about the mere concept of Tisire going to Garlemald so they were already on edge for him

#wolqotd / #wolquestion your wol has just finished "in from the cold" and have been granted about 12-24 hours to rest and recover from the ordeal. what does this stretch of time look like for them? are they actually resting, or do they need to be forced? who do they want sitting there with them?

kind of half and half? tisire started life as a dnd character that i envisioned as a mage/rogue type. i just ended up really liking dark knight, both mechanically and lore wise, and REALLY enjoyed the implications of tisire switching to it in-character.

#wolqotd maybe has been asked before but how do you pick your wol/oc's "main" class? is it what you enjoy playing the most or on what makes sense for them? have you ever played a job that you didn't enjoy bc you decided your OC would? or do you write their story around what you enjoy playing?

tisire was born on the azim steppe to a dotharl father and an orl mother. unfortunately owing to the rest of tisire's backstory he remembers very little of his childhood. she does learn more about her birth family during a personal mini-arc in post-dt though.

#wolqotd #wolquestion Where was your OC born? Do they like their homeland? And as the player was there a reason why you pick that place?

honestly underrated that the sequence of stormblood>shadowbringers>endwalker gave us "oh this very small steppe tribe has extremely specific views on reincarnation and the afterlife that strongly contradict doman and eorzean beliefs" snowballing into "it's the most accurate metaphysical belief"

for FFXIV specifically - Tisire, of course, my main. auri with a dragon-fused soul who was raised as a living weapon. Normal - mina, an imperial defector of ala mhigan and garlean heritage - panha, a voidsent miqo who is co-wols with one of my friend's characters

#wolqotd | #wolquestion This one is for the players, how many WoLs/OCs do you have and how many of them are fleshed out?

Last night my friend finished the dawntrail post-game cutscene where Lamaty'i beats the fuck out of a forcefield, and after I spent 2 hours faffing with an illustrator file, I just entered a flow state to cool down with these. Lamaty'i you will always be famous to me.

Wuk Lamat from FFXIV sketched loosely in various action poses, swinging an axe at a barrier that keeps reflecting it back until her hands bleed from the effort. At the bottom is a little doodle of my ffxiv character René, who is in love with her but hasn't confessed, crying and yelling "Lamaty'i PLEASE just gimme ONE CHANCE-"
