The character you made

[Aldath]

I picked a Viera at the beginning but got dissapointed he couldn't wear hats.
I got my free fantasia, my wife asked if she could make a character for me, and made this catboy. I wanted a Lala but I promised her I would play the catboy so I went in and... I ended up really liking his style.
I made a little RP headcanon that he's an orphan who was eventually found and adopted by a Viera (Hence why I still got a Viera name, too poor to change it lol). His wanderlust led him to leave his village when he grew up, combined with the fact he really never fit in, being a Miqo'Te living in the Salikawoods. He can't see his father anymore, but he writes letters to him to tell him how things are going.

So, for me, I wanted my character to look as strong and menacing as possible. I wanted people to think "Yeah, you don't mess with this one" when they look at my character. Yet, My character does share my IRL eye color which is a little part of me and that's the only think we have in common.

I didn't add fancy tatoo or anything like this, because it would be overwhelming on an Au Ra, so I rather keep it simple yet stylish.

All my glams are mostly Armors. You'll never see my character in anything else than something suitable for a fight. That's just how he should look ^^.

Fantastic screenshot, well done!

I'm a former WOW player and after I quit, I missed my blood elf terribly. So naturally when I started FFXIV, I gravitated towards elezen. My blood elf was male so I made my elezen male. I see my elezen as an extension of myself. We don't look alike of course, but I dress him similarly to how I would dress, and even his emotes are similar to how I would react. I started as elezen in HW, switched to bunny boy at the start of EW, but it just didn't feel the same. A few weeks ago I switched back to my elezen and it just feels correct now.

Edit: I guess I should post a picture. I broke tradition and grabbed this cute dress out of my FC chest just to clear up space. This is something I would have never considered having him wear. Not the best picture but it's the only one I have of him wearing this dress right now.

I used to love my character (and still do when it doesn't make sounds) but when they added those additional sounds to each voice, that seriously got me considering a fantasia just to change my voice....Catgirls with that high pitched "WOOOOO" should get a free fantasia.

lol I love my character's voice, he sounds so feral sometimes! Especially his laugh! By the way, did you know sitting and standing can have emote differences? I think the laugh emote is different based if you stand or sit

Apparently I somehow made my dude look like the angriest mofo on the planet without even trying to. ....Suppose it kinda fits.

Sometimes the angriest looking characters give the best hugs!

I always thought it was kind of cute how male au ra always look so angy.... yes, angy.

Since that was my first mmorpg where you got to play all jobs in 1 character, I wanted to make sure it would be a design that fits most if not all to a certain extend (as I knew I'd want to play them all haha)

Ever since I've seen this promo art though, I wanted to create my character based on this image



At that time I was actually torn between the female or male design since they both looked really nice but ended up male this time as I played female on my last game to switch it up.

I know - who plays a human in a fantasy world but that's just what felt the most average to fit all jobs at that time but he just captured the hero adventurer essence the best for me personally
