Urus, a purple-skinned xaela au ra wearing gear unfamiliar to the Steppe aside from a Qestiri mask, bleached white from its usual gray color from its age. small purple flowers adorn his horns. he sits at the edge of the wooden "dock" off the side of the Dawn Throne in the Azim Steppe during midday. one of his legs hangs off the edge while the other is propped up, with one hand resting on his knee and the other braced behind him. he stares off into the distance with a neutral/thoughtful expression. a small road sparrow minion prepares to land on his shoulder.

— 01. introduction

at the end of the season nearly 20 summers ago, a young Qestir once left the Azim Steppe, intending never to return.

a gpose of Virgil (they/them), my drifter from Warframe recreated in FFXIV, against a void black background. they are wearing a techwear/cyberpunk longcoat with a high collar/neck, armored pants, and gloves. they have short cropped raven black hair and glowing gray eyes. they are holding a pistol at the ready, seemingly about to fire, as several disembodied arms come from behind them and off screen. the hands are conflicted - some of them hold them back, some embrace them, some steady their shooting arm, some reach out to grab something, and some have seemingly no purpose. their expression is slightly panicked, eyes wide and teeth gritted. the edges of the image "glitch out" with chromatic aberration and there is a slight lens flare across the image. a thin circle halo surrounds Virgil's head and torso, behind them and all of the hands. almost imperceptible "strings" connect the fingers of the hand above their head and the top of their head, giving the illusion of marionette strings. hands from left to right: grabbing the top of the pistol, steadying wrist, steadying forearm, reaching for the gun, in a "scholarly" or hand offered pose, grabbing the right side of the face, hovering overhead with fingers outstretched, two as if giving a hug, reaching out for nothing, lightly resting on the shoulder, clawing at the chest, holding back forearm, holding back wrist why the hell did I pose 14 (16 if you count Virgil's) hands uniquely oh god

— what do you see before it's over?

Urus, a purple-skinned xaela au ra, stands confidently on a rocky ledge in the Bardam's Mettle dungeon. he holds his axe with the blade towards the ground in one hand, mid-swing as if it weighs nothing, other hand held casually bent towards his chest. he has a confident grin on his face, baring sharpened teeth. he wears the WAR lv 90 artifact gear, with small purple flowers on his horns. the shot is lit with warm lighting.

an edited gpose of Ony, a blue haired elezen, standing in a field of flowers with Worqor Zormor in the background. he has both viper blades drawn, arms crossed over his chest with the blades framing his sides. he smiles confidently as wind picks up his braid and the tail of his coat. at the top of the image, a thin, wide rectangle frames half of a white haired, gold eyed lalafell's face set against many wildflowers - Ony's father, Yevala. below the rectangle, text reads "I have my father's eyes" just below, another rectangle frames a bust shot of a blue haired elezen woman who is winking with one hand raised in greeting, also set against wildflowers - Ony's mother, Sabinne. below the rectangle, text reads "I have my mother's dreams" the text on the image plus the caption are the first three lines of the song Help is On the Way by Rise Against!

Namingway, a loporrit dressed in red and blue and wearing a backpack with a bedroll on its back, standing in The Watcher's Palace on Mare Lamentorum. they have one hand on their hip, the other with their index finger pointed up in the air as they explain something to the Watcher, who is mostly off-screen. a dialogue box at the bottom reads: (Namingway) -bearing the scars of whatever previously befell the star, but ever enduring, I chose the name...Oizys!

a cut to the Watcher from Namingway's pov, they are sitting in a chair with one hand resting on their lap. a dialogue box below reads: (The Watcher) ...I see.....Oizys...

the surface of Oizys, the new planet that the loporrits have found during cosmic exploration. the surface is craggy but with fields of red grass and yellow flowers. a large blue orb floats in the air, with a shell of broken floating rocks suspended in the air around it. a green haired ancient stands in the center of the image, staring up at the orb.

a different angle of the green-haired ancient, Koios, from the front - the original whose memories are now part of the Watcher. he wears a mostly standard ancient robe, altered to have white belt strips hanging from the waist. he also wears half-rimmed gold glasses pinched onto his nose. there are two scenes in this, meant to be read in order like an animation transition (or something like that), in the first his eyes are closed and in the second he opens them to look up at the orb in the previous image, opening his mouth to speak as well. he does not speak of the planet itself per se, but of his wife who shares the same name, Oizys. a dialogue box below reads: (Koios) You are...just as beautiful as the day I lost you.

Ony (blue haired elezen) and Sila (purple haired raen au ra) in a plum grove at sunset, atop a black horse in ornate red and gold dress, including a saddle resting on top of a tigerskin. Ony is dressed in a red, black, and white wuxia-style guzhaung and his hair is tied up into a long high ponytail. Sila is dressed in a more ornate red guzhuang, wearing pearl and gold accessories in her hair and on her horns, and her hair is mostly loose. the horse they're riding is rearing up on its hind legs and Ony holds onto its reins while Sila has her arms around his middle. both of them look down at the viewer smiling while Ony offers you an angpao with his free hand!

Urus (purple-haired xaela au ra) and Rhenia (blonde padjal) in Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre in Gridania. Urus is wearing a sleeveless shirt with a mandarin collar and clasps, belted black slacks, and various braided leather bracelets on his right wrist. his horns are also adorned with small, purple flowers. Rhenia is wearing a white turtleneck, red pants with lace cutouts, and red strappy heels. her hair is tied into one large braid, and a pair of white padjal horns stick out from the top of her head. Urus has Rhenia hoisted horizontal across his shoulders, one arm holding the leg she has thrown over his shoulder and the other hand resting on his hip. his very short tail is curled, flicking out in amusement. Rhenia's leg behind Urus is kicked up slightly, and she rests one hand on his shoulder, the other one propping up her head as she leans on Urus. Urus has an open-mouthed grin, showing his sharp teeth. Rhenia is smiling gently at him.

the same scene as the previous pic but zoomed in and at a slightly different angle so Urus's face and expression are more visible.

a gpose of Virgil (they/them), my drifter from Warframe recreated in FFXIV, against a void black background. they are wearing a techwear/cyberpunk longcoat with a high collar/neck, armored pants, a tech faceguard that covers their lower jaw, and gloves. they have short cropped raven black hair, glowing gray eyes, and a neutral, almost bored expression. their arms are crossed and they're looking down towards the viewer.

a gpose of Virgil in the same outfit as the previous pic but mid-action instead, this time holding a gilded pistol out to fire while jumping backwards.

a gpose split into two panels - the first is of Maisie, a brown field mouse girl in a cottage dress. her arms are curled up near her chest in shock, a fearful expression in her wide eyes as a tall shadow with antlers and hare ears looms over her. the second panel is of Hyde, a jackalope-like man whose pupils are constricted into tiny red dots. he stares imposingly down at her with creepy lighting illuminating him from below, but he's also holding a very pink cake and wearing a small polka dotted party hat. the lighting in both is dark and grayish.

a sequel to the previous image - now in regular daylight lighting, Hyde and Maisie are eating the cake together. Maisie is sitting with her legs folded under her, the cake propped up on her knees. she has both hands held up with fists clenched in joy, holding a fork in her right hand. her eyes are closed and she smiles wide with her mouth open. Hyde is squatting next to her and staring at the cake, his right arm hanging down loosely and his left hand casually holding the end a fork in his mouth. he's still wearing the party hat.

IT IS YOUR NAMEDAY. 👁️ DO NOT RESIST. 🎉🎂

an edited bust portait gpose of Urus, a purple skinned xaela au ra, shirtless against a dark background with dust and noise rising from the bottom of the image. his hair is loose in the back, falling over his shoulder, the front styled into long sideswept bangs and two pairs of braids framing his face. there are small purple flowers stuck to his horns. he has his mouth open with his tongue sticking out, a large arrow extending from inside his mouth. the end of the arrow sticks out from the back of his head, shaped like a key. he holds a traditional Qestir mask in his hands, as if he's just taken it off. he stares at the viewer with a serious expression on his face. there is a thin box that creates a border behind him, and thin lines extending out from the arrow in a sunburst pattern.

Aurelien, a green haired elezen, standing in front of two ornate golden frames on either side of him. the left frame contains a portrait of his father, Touxant, who is staring at him with an angry expression, jaw clenched. the right frame contains a portrait of his mother, Liselotte, who stares at him unimpressed, chin held high so she's looking down at him. both of them have a hand coming out of the portrait to grip the frame that contains them, as if they're breaking through. Aurelien is crying and has the heel of his left palm pressed to one side of his face to wipe away tears, the other hand held vaguely in front of him as tears run freely down the right side of his face. except for Aurelien and the frames themselves (but not their contents), the image is filled with noise/dust and splotches of color, as if it's old/overexposed film. there are leaks of dark green color in the top left and bottom right corners.

Callista (seeker miqo'te, left) and Alasdair (keeper miqo'te, right) dancing at night in the courtyard of a large manor. Callista is blonde with calico colored ears and tail, wearing a pair of round glasses, a floor length skirt, a vested shirt with a tucked in necktie, and a shawl. Alasdair has offblack hair with gray-blue highlights, wearing a monocle, a formal long-sleeved white shirt, a double breasted brocade vest, black slacks and thigh high boots. Callista looks slightly surprised/worried as Alasdair leads, one hand extended and holding his hand, the other resting gently on his shoulder. most of Alasdair's face isn't visible but he's smiling, one arm extended and the other at her waist. the image is overlaid with a grainy texture and an overexposed vintage photo effect at the bottom right.

the same as the previous pic, but zoomed out showing the courtyard and Callista and Alasdair's full body pose.

a gpose of Ony (blue haired elezen) and Mordra (xaela au ra) - Ony is kneeling with one hand resting on his knee and the other in a backwards peace sign gesture. Mordra is standing with one hand on her hip and the other in a lazy peace sign with her palm facing up and her thumb sticking out. in white impact font with a black border at the very top and bottom of the image is: WE ARE GOING TO BEAT YOU TO DEATH

the same image and font as the previous image but with different text, reading: COME HERE WE ARE NORMAL ADVENTURERS in faded text just barely readable behind the above text is: WE WILL VAPORIZE YOU WE ARE LITERALLY THE WARRIORS OF LIGHT

I remembered these pre-DT shitposts I made for Ony and Mordra that explain their entire friendship (indestructible main tank and the dps that learned to take tankbusters) and had to repost them obviously

Amidio, an elderly elezen with chin length, graying powder blue hair dressed in the lv 100 VPR AF gear and blue Pelupelu earrings, stands in the Yok Huy area of Urqopacha whole holding a large bunch of sunflowers in both arms. his smile is both sad and hopeful as he stares at the cenotaph he stands in front of. the cenotaph is a favor he asked from the Yok Huy as a young viper - not for him, but for the life he could have lived with his wife and child had he not been exiled from Gridania by the elementals.

the same as the first pic but from a higher angle behind Amidio instead, showing that a bunch of purple lilies has already been laid on the cenotaph before him. in DT Amidio reconnected with Ony, the grandson he never knew he had, and the only remnant of his daughter left. there are two people who remember now.

"Don't worry. I'll remember them too."

Aurelien sitting on his couch half-dressed from the waist up, wearing a high-necked button shirt with poofy arms, with a patterned black vest on top, and large silver rimmed glasses. from the waist down he wears loose black briefs, socks with garters, and dress shoes. he has his right leg propped up on the table in front of the couch, in the process of pulling up and fastening the garters, looking up in surprise.

Urus, a xaela au ra, standing in a bamboo grove holding his arms up as birds perch on him. a road sparrow is in the midst of landing on the index finger of his left hand, a hunting hawk is landing on the wrist of his right hand, and a doman magpie perched atop his head. he is smiling happily, trying to stare up at the magpie on his head.

Ony laying in bed with the rest of his family, one hand propping up his head as he holds Sila's hand. Sila is curled up next to him, hair messy and holding a small newborn (their second, Chaaya). laying asleep curled up behind Sila wearing fat cat PJs is their eldest, Aarunya.

Mordra, Sila, Ony, and Khamsin all in varying styles of yukata/kimono/haori walking through the markets of Kugane. Mordra is carrying a parasol while talking to Sila, who is holding a fan with one hand and Ony's hand with the other. Ony is also looking towards Sila, his free hand holding a paper boat of takoyaki. Khamsin is looking towards the rest of the group while walking alongside them, one hand on the hilt of his sword and the other sneaking a takoyaki unnoticed from Ony.

Ony in a cave littered with random bits of armor and spears/swords embedded into the dirt. he is kneeling, covered in blood and seemingly exhausted, holding himself up against one of the spears stabbed into the dirt, but staring defiantly up at the viewer.

Ony and Sila in format outfits - Sila has on a dark blue dress with a large skirt, while Ony is dressed in a leather lord's outfit with a fur shawl and cape. Sila's head rests near his shoulder, back to the viewer. Ony's free hand is crossed behind his back as he glares over his shoulder at the viewer, arm protectively around Sila's back and waist as if trying to protect her from anyone looking at her with disrespectable intent.

also some vintage classics (pre-DT), most of which I never reposted from the bird site so don't mind me-

Hyde, a jackalope inspired viera character, stands slightly crouched in ankle-deep water next to the roots of a huge tree. his arms hang loosely in front of him but his hands are tensed and curled into claws. he stares directly at the viewer wide-eyed with red, glowing pupils cutting through the muted colors of the image. two jackalopes are in front of him - one sitting and one standing on alert, ready to start running. both of them stare unsettlingly at the viewer.

a waist up gpose of Ony, barechested and turned slightly away from the viewer so his eyes are hidden by his bangs. his expression is a resolute grimace, teeth clenched. his left hand is raised to claw at his chest, placed directly over his aetherburn scar - very specifically, he's wearing his wedding ring. his chest glows and radiates through his skin so bright that the light is leaking between his fingers, with a visible outline of his ribcage showing through the lit up area, while smoke exhales from his mouth, as if he's burning from the inside. the background is a dark void and red light illuminates him from behind.
