The character you made

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

Yea, but it wasn't entirely unexpected. Guys been a scumbag for a long time now. I just kept hoping he'd change.[...]

I hope you're doing/feeling better now, at least. Falling out is never a pleasant experience.

[...]Honestly, you should write fanfic of your character- he sounds deeply interesting and there is definitely a lot of material to work with.[...]

I have in fact written a good outline on how his character develops, mostly focused from post patch 4.4 and beyond.

He never regained his memory, but he's alright with that. He has gotten to the point where he's fine in making new memories instead.

Y'know what? Seeing both of us in Aether, I might be down to converse more in-game about both our WoLs at some point

The main one is going to be Haurchefant, but she also wonders what would've happened if she had not let Minfillia go back alone, and if she could've arrived soon enough to save Meffrid at Rhalgar's Reach. And even before those, what if she had been there when Livia raided the Waking Sands? Beyond that, what if she could've controlled the Light after the last warden and treated with Emet-Selch? Those kinds of things are never going to be, but she can't help but think about them.

if only there was therapy in Eorzea... the WoL might go to therapy if it existed,,,
Yeah sounds rough! What does she do to soothe her mind? Especially if something or an event reminds her some someone who died in front of her?

I'd love to meet ya! Though I would need to travel to jenova for that. I'm not going to be online for some time though! Today I going to go do some classwork until dinner- I think we should maybe schedule a time to meet ingame

well, besides that- glad he found peace in his new life! What kinda hobbies does he like to do?

Most of the time, she tries something like meditation: focusing on breathing to let those thoughts come and go. Whether or not it works for her depends on a number of factors, particularly if the event in question just recently happened. On those nights, she tends to get up and find a training dummy to take out her frustrations and tire herself out so she'll fall asleep.

Hiya again!
So, we all have played this game after making a character. I tend to gush over mine... gosh I love my character. I mean, look at him go! He can do it!
Okay... I'll compose myself.

So, how do you feel about the character(s) you play in game? What gravitated you to choose their physical traits? Do you have a personality in mind for them?
Also, if you have any small bit of lore about your character feel free to mention it! ^^

To start I'll say I love how Miqo'te have tails. It makes me very happy inside. The cat traits are amazing and kept me playing. They are just so expressive. I also wanted to try a skin color I've never used before so I went with a shade that is very fantasy. Rhel'a is a himbo (socially) who don't usually understand if he is being threatened. He might take things literally and give direct answers.

My character can't exist yet but here is a general idea of what she will one day look like (I hope)



I am a tigress, a predator, and a solitary creature. I will always do the right thing and fight fiercely for anyone lucky enough and patient enough to win my trust and friendship.

Playing my lala just puts a smile on my face every time. The waddle if I walk, the emotes, the facial expressions. How can I not adore the little pocket goth?



My main piece of lore I have for her is that she's half dunesfolk and half plainsfolk.

I'm so glad that when I was picking, I dodge catgirl and au ra. This was the right choice, and the free fantasia I got will continue to gather dust in my saddlebag until the servers go offline.

I actually used the free fantasia to go from catgirl to lala, lol.

Could also just play it by ear & see if we can catch one another eventually with /sea I tried minutes ago but I suppose that wasn’t a good timing. No rush needed though.

Hobbies aren’t something he’s accustomed to have until very recently (Say, in XIV timeline it would’ve been sometime after 6.0). That being said, he in his past life was an adept with bamboo flutes & gourd flutes. He might have picked it up again at some point but he’s 100% gonna be out of practice xD

What about Rhel’a?

has she ever done that but pushed herself too hard?

I hope you get the option at 7.0 so that you can play as ur ideal character! I personally like how the design has a lion-like nose and dark scleras

What about Rhel’a?

Oh man, my apologies! I spent all of yesterday making maps. I made maps an hour after I woke up (9am) until close to bed time (8pm) and realized I was too tired to play ffxiv (I wasn't sure if this would hurt my coping skills when I fail at something or if I'll be too tired to pay attention). I spent all those hours making about 17 detailed maps in total.

If you are curious, I made the maps for session 0 of a campaign I am Dm'ing. I can post them if you would like

Rhel'a has a vast variety of hobbies! On top of being an extra party member for hire he cooks, bakes, fishes, hunts, sews, knits, goldsmiths, etc. He has many many hobbies as he always has all this extra energy that he doesn't always know what to do with. It also further fuels his unrelenting optimism- he can make so many friends just by giving them food.
He made enough stuffies to become a veritable mountain that he sleeps with. He tries to sleep with every single plushie but sometimes they fall off his bed. He also enjoys doing parkour sometimes- he climbed the kagune tower recently and landed on the lamp post on his second try. When he really has little to do he might help the local tribes and go sight seeing. He might also take photos of cute men (which consent) or birds he sees. especially if there are ducks. He also has a pet goose named Duck that he brings everywhere with him. (as you can see, he is my everything alt. Everything that I did not do on my main, I am doing on this alt).

Yes, she has, and she got a scolding from Alphinaud, which was so embarrassing for her that she resolved to avoid it going forward. Since then, she's been more careful about pushing herself and tries to combine the breathing exercises with training so as not to overdo it.

[Local_Custard]

I considered where to put this and since it is along the lines of characters I have made in relation to the game..
sometimes I wrote about this particular couple whenever I feel a particular flavor of down. Usually, gender dysphoria, sometimes my doubts. I like writing a character who voices it and another to soothe them. The couple is an oc x oc (original character) couple. They fill me with such love. I like writing them together- they are soft.
Not sure if any of this makes sense. I might edit this out later. It is 02:55 and I am having a night that particularly lacks sleep.

ah, sounds like she has honed her coping skills. Has her coping skills ever failed her in a particular moment? What happened when she pushed herself too hard for Alphinaud to scold her?

You've taken the right path /thumbsup
