My WoLs
Adrien Lothaire
Background: The illegitimate son of an Ishgardian lord and a Duskwight of the Black Shroud. He was raised as a knight in House Dzemael but started to butt heads with the family and act out once his father passed away.After being caught stealing a lord’s fine wines by some of the younger house members, they decided to take matters into their own hands and punish him by throwing him into Dzemael darkhold to think about what he’d done for a few hours. Hours turned to days as Adrien wandered too far in getting hopelessly lost, so they panicked and made up a story about how Adrien left the family on his own. These events would end up reshaping Adrien’s life for the better.While lost in the darkhold, he fought with Voidsent that emerged from a portal to the Thirteenth reflection. Bruised and freshly scarred on the face, he eventually escaped just barely and spent the next few days wandering around Coerthas feeling unsure of what to do next.One night, as he was staring into his bonfire, he decided to give up the Dzemael family name, reclaim his Duskwight family name Lothaire and start a new life as an adventurer.Character origins: Adrien was my Hunter Void Elf (Adrien @ Argent Dawn EU) I played in WoW but I migrated him to FFXIV.Random fact: He is slightly void-touched from his time in the darkhold and as a result keeps attracting small voidsent who love to follow him around. He is in denial about this and chooses to ignore them (which is hard when they literally perch on him and lick his hair...)
Kaito Katagawa
Background: A wandering Miqo'te who left his Keeper tribe due to being one of the few potential Nuhns and preferring the life of an adventuring Tia. He ended up in Kugane where he started a new life. Kaito picked his new name and surname Katagawa to help feel integrated into Doman society. He ignored Hydaelyn's first few attempts to bring him into the adventurer scene until he finally relented, having spent most of his money on snacks and needing a new source of income.Character origins: Kaito (@KaitoKatagawa) is a body double OC I made based off the character Katagawa Jr. from Borderlands 3.Random fact: This cat loves snacks. The best day of his life was when he found the giant snack area in the pixie dream land and his ultimate retirement dream is to set up a candy store.

DNI/BYF
🚫 Do Not Interact:- Please only follow me if you are 18+.- I used to have just a list here but the kind of people on it don’t tend to follow DNI rules so pretty please don’t follow me if you are the following?
Pedos/MAPs, Nazis/far rights/racists, Anti-LGBTs+/TERFs- I am uncomfortable with the following types of content so if you post a lot of this I probably won’t follow you back: Loli/shota/lewd lala content⚠️ Before You Follow Info:- I haven’t been too involved in the FFXIV community so I don't understand most people’s histories/drama situations. I will RT awareness posts but won't interact with problem people directly (I just block and move on). I prefer to keep my account a positive space.- I am ok with people DMing me to let me know I am mistakenly following someone who has caused issues or is on my DNI list above.- I enjoy fictional villains but I don't condone their actions in fiction/IRL.- If you need to softblock me for whatever reason, please consider hard blocking because I will probably not realise and keep following you!- Twitter is a big place with 1000s of WoLs and sometimes not much lore to work with, so if you see anything about my WoLs that look similar to someone's it will be a coincidence. I am against blatant copying. I will go out of my way to differentiate my ideas because I’d be horrified if someone accused me of stealing.
