Over the course of her journey, Ryl definitely learns how to fix things. As for the broken stuff? She hoards it all (both then and now) in case it "becomes useful in the future"

There's a lot but one of the more light hearted things is that Ryl was supposedly incredibly adept at survival and self sufficiency immediately when she ran away from home. I removed it because she grew up rich and privileged and belong in the rich kids club with Alphi and Estinien #rylore

#rylore

Ryl cannot stand the sound of ticking and will murder every clock she comes across that does

Ryl's is lightning, flashes of light and dark with energy fighting and coursing through her body

Perhaps not a lucky charm per say but Ryl treasures her black triteleia earring which Ameliance gave her as a promise and reminder to stick together and watch over the twins (who are also her best friends)

Ryl can't fish to save her life so she definitely jumped right in to deal with some grudges lol. She loves being able to breathe underwater and appreciates the serenity. She's also a big fan of sharks.

Inspiration comes from everywhere, especially as she was developed. Here is a comparison, from then to now. Originally, a lot of her insp came from very similar characters bg/traits, but now there are variants that make her feel more realistic to me.

A crow is one of most fitting minions for Ryl. Avaro means "white"-- yes, Ryl purposely chose this name just for the irony.

- Ryl almost always wears her black triteleia earring, as it was a gift from someone important to her.
- Additionally, she sometimes goes around wearing sharlayan goggles, especially when she's in a concentrated work mode.
- She also often dons masks.

Ryl was almost turned into a sineater, Forgiven Solitude, due to her dark/light imbalance. However, with Feo Ul's help, the excess light was purged from her. As a reaper, Feo Ul acts as her avatar to help her maintain balance-- "The Faesent"

Marche the pterosquirrel! My friend actually got this cutie for me as a birthday gift and while I don't think Ryl is great with animals, Marche is an exception.

#ffxiv | #gpose | #wolqotd | #rylore
Both and neither. She has absolutely no concept of time

#ffxiv | #gpose | #rylore | #risesnaps
Ryl's go to mount is definitely the Flying Cumulus

#ffxiv | #gpose | #wolqotd | #rylore | #risesnaps

Ryl is right at home with the namazus.

#ffxiv | #gpose | #wolqotd | #rylore | #risesnaps
Although she's not always the best with animals, Ryl is often seen with Pudding the hippo or Marche the pterosquirrel

The family bodyguard, Qestra was of a mother figure to Ryl. The viera was actually from the First and arrived to the Source with Ryl's grandmother. She lost her life saving Ryl from a kidnapping attempt

#ffxiv | #gpose | #wolqotd | #rylore
Shadowbringers, hands down. She finds out more about her heritage from the First and was slowly turning into Forgiven Solitude (a sineater) due to her light/dark imbalance

What do they say about loneliness and being alone? If I am the only one here, let me embrace my Forgiven Solitude.

(Due to her dark/light imbalance, Ryl almost lost herself and started transforming into a sineater during her battles.)

#rylore

Ryl absolutely adores pizza crusts and has a lot of feelings about them #rylore

Ryl accidentally named her chocobo, Eris after herself.. #ffxiv | #WoLQoTD | #WoLQuestion | #rylore | #risesnaps

Kael and Vela were strict parents who strove for perfection. In their minds, they were convinced that their actions were justified and simply how life works. Ryl was distant from them, due to the family dynamics/her sister. Instead, she found a mother in Qestra. #ffxiv #wolqotd #rylore

I completely failed the assignment and couldn't pick a consistent type but I had fun so I'm still winning #ffxiv #pokemon #wolqotd #risesnaps #rylore

A single one would definitely be absol but as a gym it'd be so complicated due to her lore. I spent way too much time on what she'd look like as a trainer and her gymaster appearance. may have taken some extrme creative liberties #ffxiv #xivqotd #wolqotd #gpose #rylore

She sucks at fishing, her favorite food is honey lemon, and I randomly named her after jellyfish #xivqotd #wolqotd #rylore
