d’alia is a pianist! I associate a lot of songs that have piano motifs with her, but what really solidified it as an actual hobby for her was the firmanent/restoration questline. the recital is canon!
#alialore #aotd
d’alia used to not swear a lot but then things like “godsdamn(ed)” and “arse” etc wormed into her regular vocab from so much time around sid and rielle 😌
#alialore #aotd
I like to think of my fave titles to use on d’alia as her epithets!
she’s most known by “d’alia of the stalwart sword” in many regions, as she’s the protective sword of the scions, but especially in tural, “d’alia the sunforged” is also gaining traction.

d’alia isn’t an archon but she’s quietly confided in y’shtola and g’raha how she wishes she could be! she’s done much research on her own towards soul crystals, simulacra, dynamis, and the intersection of it all with summoning that she hopes could earn her archon mark one day.

d’alia is primarily a tea drinker, but she def loves coffee as well! her fave blends tend to be dark roasts. she prefers it with a bit of cream and cinnamon as a treat, but she’ll drink it black or sweetened with agave, too.
#aotd #alialore
d’alia learns how to drive after hanging around the ironworks! cid gifted her motorcycle and nero (begrudgingly for both of them) taught her how to ride it.
and in the fast & furious au, she and @bravenewshtola.bsky.social’s cori work for stephanivien as mechanics and race cars lol

d’alia is my sun girlie forever!!!!!!!! I designed her to be sun-coded but with a sunrise/sunset color palette (warm tones, but rosy, hints of darker dusk shades still clinging to her), faith in azeyma, and a warm light that her loved ones gravitate to as well.
#aotd #alialore
d’alia is unnerved by mammets (mainly the humanoid/doll ones). when she’s flustered, which is easy to do, she blushes up her neck & cheeks. despite being a very powerful arcanist, she can only heal about a band-aid’s worth of an injury. and she also has a raspy HA HA HA laugh.

when I was creating d’alia, I’d had a vague idea of a late spring/verging on summer girlie for a sun-themed seeker, so I went with the date that correlated with mid may!

it’d have to be a remixed combo for this to work but in theory, for d’alia, she’d have:
phase 1: vamo’alla flamenco
phase 2: specifically the 2:03 - 3:00 section of intertwined
I created d’alia as (mixed) mexican-coded, even before tural was introduced! her clan is turali diaspora and developed based on things about my own tex-mex family’s history and culture 🧡🇲🇽

d’alia was an oc for an IF and threw to ffxiv unsure if I’d get into it, and a lot about her has shifted to fit her new setting, but the core concepts I created her around have stayed: her rose gold hair, her use of both sword and gun, and her sense of loyalty + duty.

luckily her canon jobs are ones I do enjoy!

• azeyma earring: a crafted coming-of-age gift from d’alia’s clan.
• caladbolg: formerly ser ompagne’s greatsword and entrusted to her by sid, d’alia primarily uses this weapon.
• drk job crystal: after restoring it, d’alia wears it on a necklace, comforted by it being close.

d’alia is 5’4! she’s comfy with her height, but also forgets she’s not quite as tall as she thinks that she is sometimes. small woman, big energy
— #alialore
d’alia has very close yet different friendship dynamics with all of the scions, but when it comes down to it, g’raha is her best friend, her soulmate, and her mutual hero 🥺

minfilia: dated during post-2.0
sid: slept together in 4.0, got together before ghimlyt but couldn’t get their relationship off the ground with 5.0, split before 6.0
koana: brief relationship post-7.0
sid (again): both learned to communicate + back together post-7.0 tank role quests

okay so a beloved friend actually made this one, not me, but it’s my absolute fave d’alia meme so here we are
— #alialore
d’alia grew up among nomadic ranchers and artisans so she’s dabbled in different forms of crafting and gathering from her clan’s lifestyle; she isn’t an expert crafter, but she knows some basics. officially, she’s only part of the btn and fsh guilds, and she can hold her own fairly well.

d’alia wears her drk stone (restored, post-myste) on a necklace! it’s her default job and she’s comforted by having it close. for smn and dnc, she keeps them in a woven pouch in her travel satchel.

d’alia would be a hypervigilant mom, always afraid of something happening to her child, but makes an effort to encourage them to explore and grow. her child would always be comfy talking to her about anything or seeking her help. she’d give warm, squishy hugs, and always bakes for them.

intertwined!! not only because it’s the mor dhona song, which is d’alia’s home region, but the section where it weaves into piano would be her motif if she had one, too. (there’s also a hefty chunk of music in my playlist for her that involves piano).
d’alia loves dawn! she’s an early riser anyway, but sipping a steaming cup of tea while she watches the sun rise over the horizon and everything slowly get brighter is her favorite part of her daily routine.
