Guldstyr stares out the open window in her room at the Pendants, in disbelief at the returned light-poisoned sky outside. Ardbert stands stoic behind her, arms crossed, having just directed Guldstyr to brace herself and bear witness to the light's return.

Text screenshot: Guldy slurped her last lightwarden. It happened. She got a lil light-steeped. Her fuckboi aura has grown, I fear. LORE!! After Ardbert chats with her in the Pendants, and tells her to go for a walk, Guldstyr has an identity crisis. She dissociates, spectating herself. Her Azem, Helios—also the source of her (non-Hydaelyn) blessing—takes over. He seeks out all of the Cardinal Virtues. Guldstyr is present the whole way through, not recognizing Helios as anything other than her own muscle memory, her own drive to throw herself at new challenges, desperately clinging to her own definition and purpose as "hero." Her dissociation fades, bit by bit, as Helios guides them through each story, bringing the tales of the Warriors of Light out of the shadow and myth that had marred their legacy. She comes back to herself in the same place she fell away, in the Crystarium. There's a stillness that's grown in her. Her pulse marches, but doesn't race. Her touch still feels, but it's half-numb. She's still here, though. And still a hero.

Updated portrait for Guldstyr (Astrologian) where she looks incomprehensibly sultry and handsome. She's got bedroom eyes, she's got a cocksure smirk, she's got her hand tantalizingly flipping a glowing card—she was handsome before but, gods have mercy, the combination of all that light and Helios' influence increased it somehow.

Updated portrait for Guldstyr (Dancer) where she looks incomprehensibly cocky and handsome. She's got an assertive gaze, she's got a cocksure smirk, and she still rocks her classic Altered Woolen Shirt. She was handsome before but, gods have mercy, the combination of all that light and Helios' influence increased it somehow.

An uncharacteristically quiet (e)mergence of Helios.

Guldstyr Thosinundwyn, brought to her knee under the burden of incredible light aether after absorbing the final lightwarden. Her face is strained in pain and she is shrouded in a miasma of light atop the Crown of the Immaculate.

Guldstyr Thosinundwyn, as she woke in bed every day prior to her battle against Vauthry. Gray-green skin, blue-gray hair with gold streaks, right eye gold and left gray.

Oh I kinda skipped the part where Guldstyr "won" but things went wrong and it wrecked her, didn't I?
Oops.
Let me fix that.

j/k Guldy's in the Tempest
(and Helios, her Azem, is at least partially at the wheel)

#ffxivguldstyr

Guldstyr and her allies on the First stand with their backs to the viewer, gazing up at Vauthry's newly constructed "paradise" at the top of Mt. Gulg. Pristine white marble structures embellished and punctuated with shining gold accents and jagged protrusions stand against a gold-to-blue shining sky.

Guldstyr glances down, taking a moment of contemplation as she strikes off to face Vauthry on her own. Her lips are set in a soft scowl and her golden gaze aligns almost perfectly with the stars emblazoned on her cheek.

Guldstyr runs off to confront Vauthry on his gold-haloed false throne.

Guldstyr settles in next to a napping Crystal Exarch, offering her arm as an improvised pillow. Guldstyr has a concerned, serious expression. The Exarch's lower face is visible despite his hanging head, his mouth part open in his exhaustion.

The peak of Mt. Gulg floats above its mountain base, ringed in a jagged golden halo. Guldstyr has her back to the viewer as she gazes up at her currently unreachable destination, arms crossed in frustration. The sky is washed in bright gold and blue with dancing beams of light, in stark contrast to the dark brown of the mountain rock.

Guldstyr rides her silver-plumed chocobo mount, Sylbmoen, on the stone-paved path to the Dwaven town of Tomra.

Guldstyr rides her silver-plumed chocobo mount, Sylbmoen, away from the once-abandoned settlement of Amity.

Hit the MSQ replay off and on today. Guldstyr's getting close to the end of Shadowbringers.
Unlike Naia, Guldy isn't getting out of this ordeal unscathed.
For now, though, she's riding her hero's high, on the cusp of what she thinks is the final battle.

My alts were 1 and done on fortunes this year. Didn't even have to think about redrawing :)
Naia gets to do hers another time when I have the energy to record the event quest.

Guldstyr is the clattering of cutlery and plates at a holiday feast, and the boisterous booms of laughter alongside the wealth of food and drink, and the thumping of unsure feet made confident in good company.
And a held breath.
#ffxivguldstyr #wolanswers

Guldstyr doesn't really do pet names, but will pick up on nicknames used by/for others.
She's pretty particular about who is and isn't allowed to call her Guldy or Guld, and who should stick to her proper name.
"Our Star," she's heard people call her—she loves that one.
(She's VAIN)

Screenshot of Guldstyr riding her silver-feathered chocobo, Sylbmoen, up a dirt path into Stilltide in Kholusia. Several identical, simple weathered wooden buildings with overhanging second stories are clustered around a central aetheryte. In the distance is a tall cliff face with a narrow waterfall tumbling over one section, and above that is the golden light-soaked sky of the First.

Screenshot of Guldstyr riding her silver-feathered chocobo, Sylbmoen, against the golden light-soaked sky of the First. Sylbmoen has the yellow Raincoat barding on, so she matches Guldstyr quite well. Guldstyr has gray-green skin, odd eyes (right gold, left gray), dark silver hair with gold streaks, and a two-tone yellow face tattoo of parallel stripes overlaid with two stars. She wears a billowy, open yellow vested shirt over practical black small clothes, two gold necklaces, asymmetrical sun/star themed earrings, brown leather gloves and Immortal Flames thigh boots.

Guldy didn't stay in Ahm Araeng long enough to track down Alisaie. She'd actually hopped the wrong amaro, if you believe it.
She backtracked to the Crystarium, had a ghost-free visit to her room in the Pendants, and then started her journey into Kholusia to find Alphinaud.

Duty Complete: The Orbonne Monastery. FFXIV Screenshot. 6 Characters shown in the blanched final arena next to the exit: Mini Moe, Guldstyr Thosinundwyn, Crystal Castle, Chains Nyx, Remus Virnos, and Mada Brightmoon.

An unsynced 6-man Orbonne Monastery run courtesy of Primal PF, so Guldstyr could finally finish the Ivalice raids and quests in FFXIV!

It was very silly and fun.

Yes. We did have one wipe to Cid 😂

Guldstyr is ALSO very accustomed to fish as a food staple. Not as varied or quality as Naia, given her home is Crescent Cove and the calamity did affect the trout population there. Honestly, Archon Loaf is a sad sort of nostalgic for her, reminiscent of hard times.

Guldstyr, a gray-green-skinned female Roegadyn with short silver-and-gold hair, flashes a toothy grin and holds out a bouquet of bright red roses with baby's breath. She stands against a deep red background and glowing yellow celestial decorations.

Guldstyr didn't want to be left out. Look at that smile!
Don't miss out on this bouquet, okay?
