posted this already on another thread but Im gonna respost it here as it is relevant to the topic





edited for backstory

Originally I wanted to just use a revamped version of my FFXI char (shown in my sig), but since I wanted to use a melee job and my XI char was a summoner, I decided to translate into eorzea one of my original characters I've been using for an OC comic battle contest.



I originally made her for an illustration piece for an exhibit at my town about steampunk, then reused her for the comic battles, eventually I created some sort of plot where she needed to transverse universes (as for starters reaching the OC battle island was via dimension travel) so it was kinda easy to replicate her in FFXIV as a dragoon (as she used a spear on the battles)
