DIASTREFO | LORD of CROWNS

I'm a professionally self-indulgent self-taught artist; confirmed evil; making the villain kissable. 🗡️ 🩸

➤  A brief about me & this account:

Dia, Capitán, Cyril, Lord etc - I go by many nicknames. Take your pick.

Male [He/Him], 21+, a very tired old man.

Writing & Art

My work revolves around original content, and is not inherently XIV-centric.

Please note this is not an RP account - I do not RP, nor ERP - requests for either will be ignored/denied.

As mentioned above, this account revolves around darker themes. Know your limits.

Some of my content is NSFW, and there will be posted crops & links to that content.

➤ Characters

Cyril Stacy is my primary character & the vast majority of my content revolves around him. In any incarnation, Cyril is a villain - and the content of this account will reflect that.

If you’ve been following my content for a longer while - you probably recognize him as a pirate. My current work has mostly divulged from that old moniker into a separate verse. The Good Captain still exists & always will, but I’m having a bit of fun right now with the Good Father. Content on this account will inevitably include both.

A little author’s note;

I am not in the business of shock value - everything I post will have the appropriate disclaimers. You ignore my disclaimers at your peril, and I absolutely will not pity you if you choose to disregard them & upset yourself in doing so. I will laugh at you if you try to make your immaturity & inability to curate your online space my problem. First & last warning.

Me, in the middle of trying to move house, learn a new language, write two books, edit a finished manuscript, and work a full time job: Hm maybe do I have time for some ffxiv screebies perchance? :)

[lordofcrowns]

From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire.

[lordofcrowns]

I'm not saying I have the time to return to XIV right now. I'm just saying if I did have the time... I'd sell one of my kidneys to find a modder capable of getting Cyril back to looking like himself post-DT.

Dr. Ambrose Debauve

Ambrose is a mild-mannered and unassuming man. He is the owner and resident doctor of a small pharmacy on Ashgrove Lane in Windermere.

A small, modest shop, staffed only by himself and his apprentice apothecary, Tiche, Ashgrove straddles the canal that marks a boundary: where the wealthy, mercantile class estates end and the middle income neighborhoods begin. He services clientele from both, but is not above tending to maladies of the lowborn folk further east.

This has earned him a reputation for being both reliable and kind, but also perhaps a touch too giving to those deemed less deserving.

As he has no affiliation with the church, his work is entirely mundane in nature. His credentials instead come from a respected secular university in the much smaller, northern town of Bishopsbride. Even without magic, he is plenty capable of crafting poultices, prescriptions, and potions to treat everyday injuries or illnesses with success.

Despite his reputation being tarnished by his willingness to service criminals or miscreants, he strives to remain in good standing with both the Royal Guard and Our Lady. The former necessitates the reporting of dire offenses witnessed, and the latter demands refraining from attempting to craft or sell a counterfeit version of the church's current remedy for addiction.

While he uses no magic in the creation or application of his medicinal work, Ambrose does know some magic. He excels at both obfuscating charms and protective enchantments, skills which he rarely employs for his own benefit - but readily offers in service to his benefactors.
