GOD SAME I WOULD DIE FOR THEM ALL. funnily enough one of my other ffxiv OCs, liyen, is a lacuna character..... from a completely different universe, gdt's tales of arcadia, which i drifted away from a while before getting into ffxiv. (they're one of vex's dead kids lol)

stands on the beach looking over the horizon....... percy my love.......

oh LORD. v'yeh and chalice started out as a big dramatic enemies-to-lovers, then deryk was a 'hey we saw you from across the bar and you just almost killed yourself in front of us, man are you okay' that eventually became smooching. really though the uniting thread is cults.
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
lrp oh god, every time i realize v'yeh would hate or like an NPC that i also happen to hate or like i have to fight the urge to turn to the camera and go THIS IS WHAT MAKES SENSE FOR SOMEONE WITH THEIR SPECIFIC ARRANGEMENT OF TRAITS AND OPINIONS AND LIFE EXPERIENCES, I SWEAR ☠️
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
for both 'significant characterization' and 'marketing ragebait,' i think the prime candidate for v'yeh doing a heel-turn post DT would be a timeline where they're forced to follow canon and nuke Living Memory. it would turn them into the joker AND the discourse would be RANCID
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
[looks at my WoL who was created solely because i thought it'd be funny to have a goon-coded OC to belligerently make out with one of lahabrea's goons and have a Mutual Crisis about it] [laughs] [laughs more]
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
i feel like the two most likely answers here in v'yeh's case are either 'some incident of childhood neglect,' or 'almost died trying to get home to their family and make sure everyone was okay after the Calamity, realized none of them cared in turn, went no-contact afterward'

dasfdhdjfnfjfn i keep. fucking. talking about my ffxiv OCs including setting transplants and FORGETTING THE REBUILD 3 TEAM I KEEP MEANING TO TRANSPLANT TO THE FIRST. NOAH LORI JOHAN MR. PEANUTBUTTER AND LIEUTENANT ODA YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
lrp jfc what a mood, it honestly really hurts to feel so compelled to self-censor critical aspects of various readings and OCs because i know things like 'v'yeh is a CSA survivor who has, by game's start, not registered that what happened to them was abuse' might go over poorly
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
funny enough, v'yeh is my only WoL so far! and WoL!v'yeh is an AU version of them, no less. most of my OCs for ffxiv (whether homegrown, transplanted, or Heavily Rehauled canons from other fandoms) seem to fall into some variation of Just Some Guy, ascian, voidsent, or ancient
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
DASFSHDJDJDMFKJK FUCKING AMAZING
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
tbh v'yeh is STILL changing bc there's huge parts of the story i haven't thrown them at yet--currently their story is very ShB/EW/ARR-heavy bc i initially got into the game secondhand to lose my mind about later expansions--but most notably they didn't start out as a WoL at all
#ffxivtag #mooglearts #moogleocs
[WIP] trying to doodle mjnru and cursing how damn clumsy this stylus makes all my lines nowadays 😔 keeps making an absolute hash of her hair too. save me
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
v'yeh starts out with a welsh accent they've intentionally buried under west country, to blend in in limsa + distance themself from their family. depending on the timeline they usually end up in a better place about it, and allow their natural accent to come out more over time
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
v'yeh, chalice, and deryk take turns being the blue text, v'yeh and chalice pass the black text back and forth like a football. (deryk is too polite. 😔)

Moogle sketches! First 3 of many!

And of course Arty's gotta be lewd~ ;3c

v'yeh is either v'yornj, or simply the ornj. because they are ornj 🍊
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
if we're talking ALL of my OCs, uh... looks at the likely 1000+ i've accumulated over the years. good luck lmao
with my ffxiv OCs, the thematic venn diagram so far seems to cover 'people clinging too hard to the Story they think they're in' and 'nice is not automatically good'
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
v'yeh has a simultaneous disillusionment with The Ordinary, worshipful parasocial naivete toward their Heroes(tm), and desperation to be One of the Heroes and Therefore Loved, Admired, and Special that makes them unfortunately susceptible as hell to both vanity and bootlicking
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
me personally i am a SUCKER for most shades of brown eyes, esp with black, dark brown, or auburn hair. v'yeh gets flustered over silver hair because they associate it with Heroes to Fawn Over (for backstory reasons), and eventually end up big gay over brown eyes/hair as well
#ffxivtag #toatag #moogleocs
picrew'd my little guys, ffxiv edition! mjnru, v'yeh, liyen, and efraim in that order
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
interestingly, the only one this has happened with so far (to my knowledge) is liyen, and that happened in the fandom they originated from... years before i got into ffxiv at all, much less ported them over. (pronounced lee-yen, other person thought it was lye-en)

if anything in this entire world makes me want to ignore or at least enweirden the whole Extreme Sexual Dimorphism re: size and build in au ra, it's trying to figure out how to xiv-ify my fuckoff huge butch dragon changeling gorl, schommag. Big Mean Murder Lumberjack
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
v'yeh is somewhere around a 3 or 4 usually, learns to put on a bit more of an act over the course of their career but still ends up being Dashing much more than polite. liyen is an 11 who will apologize profusely if you pour soup in their lap (and might also accidentally moan)
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
v'yeh: SO MUCH. they are desperate to be adored and looked up to while also feeling totally unworthy of it, and the entire overarching theme of their run of the game is 'how do people inspire each other, for good and bad.'
liyen: soaking wet social anxiety beast. save them
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
i have not been active on here in FOREVER but i needed to show you all the glorious meme my bestie made of my idiot cat child. fun fact: us talking about this meme as a hypothetical ornj wol predates v'yeh's creation by months and when we realized what we'd done we Screamed
#ffxivtag #moogleocs
debating whether to start including ffxiv AU versions of canon characters from other media in qotd answers or not, considering a) i love them and b) working them into the world inevitably involves Development that i'm proud of and which is often specific to ffxiv. hm
