Evolution of your character

[Jim_Berry]

Not my personal screenshot, but this is my model in FFXI. Cerberus server from 2005-2013. Started as White Mage (WHM) but turned Ninja (NIN) in 2008. By 2009, I had become a Corsair (COR), moved to Asura in 2013, and retired in November 2014 as COR due to my dedication to FFXIV:


This is my main and only character. Started FFXIV in beta phase 1 on PS3. While this image is my same character model, I started as a CNJ with red hair. By late October 2013, I changed the color to black/purple and became BRD main. I became a NIN when ROG released and currently still main NIN. I have never used a Fantasia or changed my name:

started out as a catboy!

later on i decided to try to leave my comfort zone and try being an elezen! it really grew on me and i didnt change race until heavensward's release

excited for the aura with my love for horns i became my favorite pointy melon head

an extra fantasia bottle and a moment of weakness = a week of regrets

and finally the current! although i am thinking of going back to my melon head au'ra with a few tweaks!

I think it's so cool when people have kept the same character from the beginning... at first I changed races because I was bored and wanted to try out the others, now I change because I can't decide between my elezen and my au ra. I love my elezen's face and voice, but glamours and emotes don't look so good... I love my au ra's emotes and glamours, but I hate being short even at max au ra height. Regularly switching is the only option

I love all of them, have so many good memories of me and my brother and sister. (:

2.X
I started as a sun cat. Thought the odd eyes and freckles were cute.


3.0
I, like many others, went Au Ra. Changed about 3 times just as Au Ra, was never happy with any Au Ra I made.





Got kinda tired of that, so I went back to sun cat for a (very brief) time:



And now I'm moon cat. Definitely a lot, lot happier with how she looks and besides some hair/tattoo changes, I think I'll be sticking with this look for quite a while.

[Enkidoh]

I'm boring, I've kept Enki the same race/clan, gender, body size/skintone/hairstyle/haircolour right through from version 1.0 through ARR's Alpha and Beta, and now into ARR (the only thing I changed was I fixed a mistake I'd made when creating her in 1.0 concerning a confusion with Eorzea's odd calendar in setting her nameday). But I'm so attached to her appearance I just can't bear to change it! (And given the fact I'm always getting people compliment me on her appearance I must have done something right then!).

But anyway, I may as well show how Enki has been depicted from the beginning, including her Vana'dielian counterpart.... (pics coming)

1.0 Enki at the beginning of her adventure (after getting herself lost in the Black Shroud!):


ARR Beta phase 4 (the only Beta pic I have uploaded to my Photobucket - I'm lazy ):


And finally, Enki as she is now (taken from the Lodestone):


And for comparison: Vana'dielian Enki (in formal wear ):

I don't have a pictures displaying my characters evolution, but it went a little like this...

F:Hyur->M:Hyur->F:Hyur->F:Miqo'te->M:Hyur->M:Miqo'te->M:Hyur->M:Elezen->M:Hyur->F:Hyur->F:Miqo'te->F:Hyur->M:Hyur->F:Au'ra->M:Au'ra->F:Au'ra->M:Hyur->F:Hyur->F:Highlander->M:Hyur->M:Miqo'te->M:Hyur->M:Au'ra->M:Elezen.

I may have a problem. It's a lot spread over a long period of time, but I can never decide because there are parts of each race i find incredibly derpy.

Thinking back, there have been quite a few steps to my character's growth:

- My very first character screenshot - (Beta3)
Newbie Adventurer that just controlled his first pet: Emerald Carbuncle. Brown eyes with Light brown short hair and a Tattoo.




- Aspiring Crafter - (2.1)
A bit into the game, I decided to lighten up the hair a bit and turn his eyes blue.




- A Tankless Job - (2.3)
The moment he picked up tanking, he was in for trouble. Scars and even lighter hair. The tattoo also lightened up.




- Zenith - (2.4)
With a lot of experience down, things got out of hand. Even lighter hair and eye color + eyepatch.




- Symbolic Wedding(?) - (Time unknown?)
Well - I always said that the Solace FC spirits married on this day. I can't really say much about that :')




- Growing up - (2.5+)
Mature look with grown hair and older looking face. The Tattoo vanished, so did the light eye color.




- A new Heroine? - (early 3.0)
At the beginning of 3.0, a new heroine took over for the new Adventures in Ishgard! She still looks very insecure.




- Lightning Returns - (3.0 after Story)
After the story of the new heroine, the main character reappeared. Mature look remained with new Ishgardian flair.




- Inter-mission - (somewhere during 3.0)
Was quite fun to find out that I looked like derplander with a hairstyle/color change only. I totally didn't know what would happen in 3.1 at that time...




- Summertime -(3.0 Moonfire faire)
During late Summer, the Au'Ra heroine makes a short appearence with a now more sexy look to show that she's growing too!




- Back to the roots - (late 3.0)
After a while, the main character reappears with his old fashioned look.




- As goes light... - (3.1)
And that's my current me and I actually look forward to the next evolution steps!

Oh, I really like this look!
