Evolution of your character

Nice photoset!!

Thank you Ruri Senpai

I never played FFXI, instead I've come here from WoW. On WoW, I played a Night Elf Feral (cat) druid, called Lisanna:



When I came here, I decided I wanted to remake Lisanna, however, I decided against being an Elezen, as although I would still be an elf, they don't really fit with Lisanna, after all, she spent most of her time as a ferocious cat rather than some prim and proper elf lady. So I made her a Miqo'te, and as she was a night elf, I chose keeper of the moon:



I also didn't keep my name as Lisanna, because I felt weird just adding a random surname to it, so instead I broke Lisanna up into Lis and Anna and from there I became Liss Anakho. So she's like a whole new character whilst still reminding me of my old one.

I've changed my hairstyle since I started as I realised that an awful lot of people seem to have white/silver hair, and the spiky short hair seems quite popular as well. So now, I am a blue haired pretty kitty:



as for future evolutions, I may just turn into a lalafell. I like them so much.

I'm a simple Galka/Roe with simple tastes...Practically no changes between the two and I've left my FFXIV self alone since launch lol.

Although I did glamour the original Gae Bolg recently. It's color scheme matches the dye really well and I've always been a fan of it's physical design.

I decided to use some of my skills that I rarely use for some reason and put together a gif for my evolution since I think this thread idea is pretty cool xD

It doesn't have all my looks just the ones I used for a significant amount of time. If I did all of them it would be too long I think lol.

Well, the good thing is: I was always happy to spam my screenshots, so even though most stages of my transformation are not on this PC, if I just google myself, I find something for each stage, so I guess it's fine xD

No XI screenshot because I dropped that game after about 2 days, found it horrible, but I was that female cat thingy.

My 1.0 look never changed: short, reddish brown hair, the most tomboyish body build and all the possible facial scars.



ARR beta and 2.0 start: all that changed was that her hair became really red now, as well as an added star-facial tattoo After this screenshot I left the game for about a year.

Sub-stage where the hair was still red but other changes applied already:

Return at the end of 2014 look: for the first time, let Meo's hair grow out, got rid of facial scars, plucked her eyebrows, and bleached her hair. Basically, Meo finally became a lady x)
The one thing that had never changed were her cat-like lightgreen, shiny eyes


For Heavensward, I knew right away I'd turn into an Au Ra lady, mainly because I was so sick and tired of glamours always not going well with my red or orange hair. I wanted bluish colors, for once!xD
So what came to be was one of my biggest regrets: doing my ingame-marriage as a tomboyish Au Ra
Half of the time my face wasn't showing and when it was visible, I looked incredibly mad to get married at all xD


So, of course, next came an extreme girlification again: longer hair, less scales, softer facial features and a f*cking rose-colored heart on the cheek, because....girly!!xD

Sub-stage with a middle ground I really liked, not too girly, not too tomboyish:

Around autumn 2015 I got tired of Au Ra, mainly that they generally just look too cold and detached and that no earrings are showing on them.
I decided to go back to Miqo'te, but since I had 2 phantasia left, I decided to switch to Lala in between
The plan was to do it for one week, but...it lasted for about..2 months?xD Just too adorbs :3


Shortly before 3.1, the final return to Miqo'te: old look, but without the bright-green eyes. Had enough of giving people depreciatory looks x)


Since it was an old look, I got bored of it in about 3 days?

So, the final look for now:

Yeaaah..."final"...xD
When Winter Sale came around, of course I was already missing my detached Auri lady again, so I bought the 5 Fantasia pack, wasted the first one going Mooncat for 3 minutes before realizing that that's not me,
changed to Raen instead and realized I picked the wrong nose x_X
So I used a third one, but because using one JUST for a freaking nose job seemed like such an incredible waste, I also switched from Raen back to Xeala. Who cares if I main healer! >.< I need my dark scales to be happy!
I looked exactly like my retainer then (just that she is a Raen still) and decided we'd be sisters..xD
But because it was too weird I quickly ended up changing my look again and now I finally went for the puffy sheep look I wanted for a while but never thought anyone could pull off well ^-^

lol, you sound like me. I'm ashamed of how many changes I've kept for less than 24 hours. :X

As far as my most recent adventures around Fantasia land, here they are!


I had been my usual miqo self for quite awhile, and was starting to get that itch...

So I thought I'd make a sweet looking Au Ra for a change:


Decided I didn't enjoy looking quite so innocent, so mixed it up just a wee bit (I realize these don't look THAT different in the pictures, but they were, trust me :


And then finally came back to the miqo



This was all in a week's time.

My characters don't change, only their glamours do. And even then it might only be because their previous set wasn't something quite as fitting as the new one. That said, if they release a certain 3.0 miqo'te hair further down the line I will jump on that really, really fast.

PREVIOUSLY ON REMI VARN E

Now she's a cat.

Went back to being an AuRa.


Then I was a Hyur for awhile.


Went back to srs face AuRa again.


But then I remember why I fantasiad away in the first place. It was too srs and didn't mesh well with how I play. Now she's a night cat with a friendly face.

I wish I had some evolution to post, but its hard for me to change from elezen.. I feed off other peoples changes for now Keep em comin
