#joeylore #joeylore:aris it's 5am i can post oc cringe and no one will notice. me associating aris so much with gx and gx opening 3 specifically and it being named teardrop is really juicy when ive based so much of his story on what it means when you arent even the hero of your own story
#joeylore #joeylore:morgan
pov the fat 5ft tall bunnyrabbit you tried harassing just pulled out knuckle dusters
#joeylore #joeylore:aris i dont limit arismont to one job bcuz i think thats silly (youve all especially seen my mnkposting. unless you havent but now you know) but DRK is to the degree for him that it's a lifestyle. it's an oath- to wield the hatred in his heart in service to The People against
#joeylore #joeylore:aris aris doesnt... HATE hydaelyn or the exarch... technically... but theres a DEEP fucking grudge at the 1-2 punch he got in stb to shb of "youre not our hero and despite all your contributions to this planet, you are cosmically insignificant so you did that shit for nothing"

A highly edited screen capture from Final Fantasy 14. Depicted is Raphael, a brown elezen man in angelic white-and-gold armor. He reaches towards the camera with his free hand while the other hand slices a golden sword through a black background. Raphael has a halo and wings, as well as golden scars on his hands, indicative of a partial sin-eater transformation. In spite of this, his own blood covers his face in defiance of the transformation, a symbol of his resisting humanity, and he glares at the camera with an eye the same color as his blood.
I STILL BLEED RED

arismont is a narrative on Being an immigrant. ostracization, respectability politics, navigating transgender masculinity, anger and love in relation to justice, poverty, overcoming fear of change, your parents slowly learning to understand you and take responsibility
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
arismonts soul is a dark blue, hazy with how much dark aether hes taken into his body, + a shimmer of gold from his lasting light corruption.
except theres smth else there. his soul isnt "dense" the way itd be with a rejoining; this soul is a completely separate person.
#joeylore tag for oc yapping
we got, first raphael dominic - kholusian elf who resisted his own sin eater transformation by being Built Different (not really but it's a long story) after trying to assassinate Vauthry
A series of edited screenshots, starting with Wuk Lamat being asked her thoughts, off screen, on my character, Arismont Imbertain- known to her by the affectionate nickname, Aina. At first she seems contemplative, saying "How I feel about... Arismont? Oh, you mean Aina? Well..." The second panel shows excitement in her eyes, willing to praise her friend. She continues, "He's been a great friend! I won't lie, I've always been insecure about my inexperience compared to my brothers, but he was there to remind me of what I'm really fighting for - to remember what Dawnservant meant to me! That's not something I'll ever forget. I don't know if I would have held on til the end without his advice."
A continuation of the previous set of screenshots, this time with Wuk Lamat's brother, Koana, being asked the same question. Staring out from the balcony in the palace, he ponders his answer. "I've been blinded in the past by the need to push towards what I thought was the future. I mistook the conveniences of Sharlayan technology for superiority, and... failed to value the lessons Tural's various cultures had to impart. Lamaty'i helped me see that, but I knew I couldn't let my work end at that realization. I still can't." His tone changes in the second panel, looking up as he speaks more with hope than the weight of his responsibility. "In that regard, I have Arismont's guidance to thank. My desire to ease the burdens of Tural's peoples as Dawnservant hasn't changed, but I owe it to his perspective on the state of the world to keep my sights set on who I'm really serving with my advancements. We aren't Sharlayan, and I have nothing to be ashamed of. He taught me that, and I'll be forever grateful."
One must imagine the Dawn's Promises happy.

this was an insane ride for aris🧵
having gotten his echo at age 14, he would have brief visions his parents didnt know what to make of- after a while, they were so rare aris didnt even think about them.
so when they resurface in ARR and he gets pulled in by the scions,
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
i love considering this especially with the context of arismont being NOT the wol, but is able to keep up with his wifesband who /is/ wol enough that people thought they were just both the WoL until shb where he renounces the title entirely. it's a combination of "learning
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
(touches the earth) something happened here
ironically from start to finish he's still face 1 M elezen
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
this is going to be a whole thread bcuz food is. Very important to aris.
he grew up with his fathers cooking, who had to adapt from traditional turali cooking with lots of homegrown local vegetables to the ul'dahn spices and local livestock and vegetables he wasnt familiar
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
the first time arismont ever killed was a voidsent that possessed one of his thm guild classmates after they'd unsealed it, thinking that controlling it would prove them better than "the new kid". aris ended up saving them, but it got him the jaw scar and the echo at age 14
#joeylore #joeylore:aris
arismont being turali is a very. un-nuanced descriptor of his life to eorzeans, especially with his family's history with a xbr'aal/elezen father and a turali elezen mother. with elezen descended from settlers from the shroud ~1500yrs ago,
A screenshot from Final Fantasy 14. A brightly lit summer morning in a dense woodland, with light filtering through the trees. Arismont, an elf with dark hair and blue-tinted grey skin, is washed gently in this light, as he looks at the camera with a smile. A text box is below him, with his dialogue: "Coming all this way from Tuliyollal, I've still learned nothing about you. Surely you can tell me something personal by now, can't you? A hobby or two?"
A follow-up screenshot, showing that the one to whom Arismont is speaking is Zoraal Ja, a reptilian man with similarly blue scales, donning regal jewelry and a crown with pseudo-Aztec patterning. With the lens angle changed, he appears to be looking off-camera to the man speaking to him. Arismont's text from the previous image continues: "Perhaps a passion of yours? Your greatest fear?"
The scene goes dark, with only a pair of golden eyes, the same color as Arismont's, alight in the distance. Images are above and below the black in the center, with a haze over them; this is a dream. In it, Zoraal Ja is thirty years older, having discarded the symbols of his culture and now adopting a steel, cybernetic armor over his body, indicative of his status as the tyrant king of a foreign nation. The image above the darkness depicts Arismont, similarly dressed in a Victorian blouse and dress rather than the cultural linens of Tural; his head is obscured by the shadows of this dream, and the last words of his question in the previous panel fade in over his head, "greatest fear?" Here, he is pierced by Zoraal Ja's futuristic blade, effortlessly lifted by the now-older man's strength. In the bottom image, however, Zoraal Ja finds an armor-clad figure staring him in the eye, still impaled on his blade in place of who was once there. This is the armor of the Dark Knight, of those who vow to mete out justice where the law will not. The blood from the flesh it had previously pierced has now become the violent, aggressive backlighting onto the pitch-black armor. Rather than helpless and limp like before, the armored figure pulls itself further into the blade, grabbing Zoraal Ja by the arm. Ink drips from the crevices in its helmet, pouring onto the now-king's shocked face. Despite the horizontal view, the ink falls as if the knight holds itself above the king.
The scene returns to the present, Zoraal Ja looking away from the camera- from Arismont, his future executioner- in blissful ignorance of what will come. He is brightly lit by the sunrise, and his text box beneath him brushes off Arismont's previous question. "...What a ridiculous question."
favorite nightmare.
