The character you made

[DiaDeem]

even though the ginger options can be quite limited (hard to explain it fully, but I guess the limited hair selection is similar to how they skipped violet as a option) I often find the shades of ginger used very nice on the eyes. Also, I really like the grinmore you have there.

The grimoire is called Ethica. It's a very pretty one, with butterflies and flowers. The type of drop you'd expect from a place like Dohn Mheg... except it drops from Castrum Abania?? It has never made sense that the pretty Fairy-looking book drops from a Garlean castle, while Dohn Mheg's weapons barely look fae at all.

As for the ginger options, I think it just stuck because how pretty I think orange and green can look together, and it's not a combo I see too often in XIV. I've dyed my hair a couple times IRL, but the eye color I'd need contacts, and I hate contacts.

Maybe the Garleans stole it? They steal land, so they likely steal pretty things too.

Also I too hate contacts lol This is why I wear glasses instead. Also very true. I usually see cherry red hair instead. In all fairness, cherry red is a pretty hair color.

Edit: Read the comment below me and did a short search. I think the weapon you are thinking of is Aurora

Dohn Mheg's weapons are recolours of the Abania weapons.

Realizing this after years has made me depressed...

Oh no, Aurora is for SMN. I was talking about Ethica, which is the SCH one. Then again, it's just 4 recolors of a single design for the Abania and (as I just realized) Dohn Mheg gimoires.

I just want more actual Fae-looking things.

I'm glad we do have some fae themed items, though more is always welcomed! I love it when I queue into roulettes and run into someone who has a fae themed weapon with some pretty light effects
