Your Character; a projection, a fantasy or something random?

[Warlyx]

random , i was a taru in FFXI



but got tired of not enjoying weapons or armor so i started to avoid small races :P , now i usually play the race that i like the most ( for example : in wow tauren male for horde and human female for alliance, gw2 human male but my thief is Asura) ,battle animations are the more important thing ,if i like how it looks but dont like battle animations meh....

in FFXIV every1 has the same animations ...after being hyur for years wanted to change and Au Ra now :P , always white/grey hair if i can...for unknow reasons

I changed the heterochromia because it was really common, and noticed as the quote above, whitewashed kitties everywhere. So I tanned up due to my special snowflake syndrome.
The red tattoo? I dunno. I thought it was cute, chose red as it went well with the skin tone and it suited the white/red WHM robes. The face I chose was just because I liked the stripe markings. Eyes etc are just what is attractive to me I guess. Character doesn't look like me at all except the fact I have green eyes (though not as nuclear green lol) and blonde highlights.

I spent quite a few minutes pondering whether "Vayanne" was a suitable name for an Elezen or not, in fact I am still unsure about it.

Elezen names tend to be french-inspired. As a native french speaker, Vayanne isn't actually used. However, it does SOUND french enough for it to work as an Elezen name.

I give it my thumbs up, if it matters.

I usually play female characters for vanity reasons. I'm a guy but one thing that I'm quite jealous of is female fashion. There is so many more outfit ideas and I'm stuck with pants and tshirts and thats it. So I play female characters for vanity sake. It's not really a desire to be it but eh, it's a game.

One thing that has always been a staple for me with games - I love my pigtails!

(Pictures hidden to avoid spam!)

Aside from my pigtail obsession, a lot of the time they will end up with blue eyes (which I have), be on the taller side for their particular races (which I am), and have a nice tan going on (which I want! ;; ). Outside of that, I just go for cute

[Gemina]

She's a projection and a fantasy. I certainly wish I looked like her, and a lot of her appearance is influenced by Daenerys Targaryen's novel description from the show A Game of Thrones. Particularly the silver hair and purple eyes. Though my character's natural hair color is platinum blonde. I already knew how I wanted my character to look before even starting the game. From there it was all about playing with the options to get her as close as possible to that.

Though sometimes I think my character is more real than I am.

[Alahra]

When I started FFXI, I intended to play a Thief or Ranger, so I went with Mithra for the Dexterity/Agility bonuses, and I settled on the white-haired Face 6A (just like, I would soon learn, almost everyone else).

Moving forward to FFXIV, I just did my best to recreate my FFXI character (to the point that I obsessed over the highlights for my white hair to make it more resemble the dark lines in the corresponding hairstyle in FFXI). The FFXIV Alahra is much paler (since we didn't get to choose skintone in FFXI and I thought it was more appropriate for a Keeper of the Moon), and her markings don't quite line up to the FFXI ones (since none of the faces have an exact match).

I've been told she looks a bit like me when I wear glasses in-game, but I don't see it myself.

I made myself a Lalafell because they're adorable and I like cute things and I like small things. Then I tweaked his face and hair to whatever I could find that would produce the most serene, adorable face I could. Then I went full tank, because watching a person shrug off hits from swords twice as wide as their entire body is funny.

I don't know if I succeeded, but he's a cool little dude in my eyes. I also like cloth classes a bit more than heavy armor classes, because again wearing jammies to a dungeon is adorable when you're the size and shape of a penguin.

:O I wanna see, can I see, let me see. I'll link an artwork from me to make fair.
