R'tahn Tia - Miqo'te Machinist

I'm a Warrior of Light! Well, mostly. I really just make magitek, but I tend to get wrapped up in some complicated things....

WoL: I’ve only slept nine hours over the past four days, so I’m right on the verge of a nervous breakdown. WoL: *bites into a crystal* WoL: This isn’t a bagel.

I finally drew it. I was gonna play FFXIV instead but I’ve been working on this most of the morning. :’)

Thank you to @totallycorrectffxivquotes for making these posts because they’re hilarious!

It’s Munday!

But some muns would still rather talk about their muses and blog canon than about themselves, so here’s a meme for the muns to answer in depth about their blogs/muses!

✄ What is an idea you originally had in mind for your muse, but ended up scrapping? Why?

† Do you portray your muse as religious? Why or why not? How does your own religion (or lack thereof) influence this?

☑ What is a plot idea you’re willing to play with virtually any partner? What makes that plot so special to you?

☒ Is there any sort of behavior towards your muse (ic or ooc) that you simply cannot stand?

✰ How did you decide your muse’s skills and talents? Do they relate to their occupation in some way?

Ⅶ If you have multiple blogs and/or muses, which one is your favorite? Why?

❉ What is a dream AU for you? If you haven’t done it yet, why not?

✎ When choosing a name for your muse, did you pick something special or meaningful in some way?

☺ If you have a faceclaim for your muse, why did you choose them? Are you satisfied with your fc, or would you rather find a different one?

♥ When it comes to shipping, what factors are absolutely necessary for a ship to develop?

❝ ❞ Is it easy for you to write dialog for your muse? Do their speech patterns come naturally to you while writing?

❀ What is a muse you want to play but haven’t? Why haven’t you played them yet?

✸ Tell us about any NPCs on your blog. Who are they to your muse? What do they contribute to your blog?

✑ Do you prefer writing OCs or canon characters? Why?

✼ When it comes to worldbuilding, what are some ideas you’d like to explore in rp?

◑ What is a side to your muse you want to show off, but haven’t had the chance to yet?

Haurchefant Greystone from Final Fantasy XIV loves you unconditionally!

G’raha Tia: Truth or Dare?

WoL: Truth!

G’raha Tia: How many hours have you slept?

WoL: … dare

G’raha Tia: Go to sleep

WoL: I don’t like this game.

Because I feel like this needs to be said, as I’ve seen a lot of it recently…

Please do some research into the cultures your ocs are portraying. While FFXIV is full of fantasy races from made up places, they are based on real world equivalents with vast and intricate cultures. The least you can do is be respectful of them by putting in some base level research into them when creating your characters. 

Please, enough with the badly researched, harmful trope reliant, butchered “cultural flair.” 

Cultures develop differently for a reason, there are aspects of certain cultures that you cannot conflate. There is a large part of people that develop because of, and through, their culture. So to disregard that aspect of someone doesn’t make a lot of sense.

We have so much lore and the entire library of the internet at our fingertips, the VERY LEAST we can do is use them. Because the alternative is ignorance and it’s not acceptable

This is important, as a member of a marginalized people.
