FF XIV Full Lore Source

[FagnerDC]

I need some source of knowledge about whole FF XIV's events and history, including important NPCs.
I've already found full material about:

- Before Game: Astral and Umbral Eras

- Version 1.0 story
https://gamerescape.com/2013/08/21/t...e-white-raven/

- A Realm Reborn full events (Part 1 and 2)
https://gamerescape.com/2015/01/19/t...reborn-part-1/

- Heavensward story (part 1, 2, 3 and 4)
https://gamerescape.com/2015/11/10/t...nsward-part-1/


Now i need resource about Stormblood events but i could not find it yet.
Can someone help me find a place with a Stormblood's complete history like these ones, Please?

I'll do one for every patch, so it'll arrive ... just probably late.

(RL events—and then a bit of offline gaming to relax—interrupted my Eorzean momentum, lol.)

Aside from the basic recap is there anything specific you're looking to understand better in the meantime?

No rush here, Moose, but out of curiosity: can we expect an eventual Raimdelle Alces update for Stormblood too, or are you phasing that out now that the official lore book bestiary stuff is stepping into your turf?

I keep thinking that there really, really should be some sort of consolidated organized lore resource, possibly in wiki format.

I also acknowledge that such a thing would be a massive undertaking, which is probably why nobody has stepped up yet.

There are actually two copies of the bestiary project - a public one and a private one. The private one is a much larger spreadsheet of absolute chaos; it's been updated every patch, so it's not falling behind structurally, but many of the labels are nonsense. There are a lot of mobs that I've yet to clean up and find good guesses at species names for. I call them BOLOs and there's quite a few of them, lol.

Well, it's delightful to hear it's still due for an update someday when it's less messy; Alces is probably my favorite FFXIV thing going! Best of luck figuring out what the heck an Anala is.

I have a strong suspicion that the anala are relatives of the ananta who have adapted to volcanic environments.

was there supose to be a link for the "before the game" story? if so i can't see it. i would like to know more about it

[TinyRedLeaf]

I don't know if there's a section on pre-Sixth Astral Era history in Gamer Escape, but this ought to tide you over, if a chronology is all you need:

An Eorzean Timeline

I'm very fond of this site for 1.0 lore, too, in the form of compiled dialogue and quest text.
