FFXIV Lore Resources
Hey dudes! Lately I’ve been reaching out a bit to some FFXIV players who expressed interest in getting a hold of lore resources. I mentioned to them I’d try to set up a post making the most helpful ones I’ve encountered readily available, and this?
It’s that post.
MIRKEMENAGERIE: Easily one of (if not the) most complete and comprehensive collections of lore I’ve encountered online. Includes quotes from NPCs in-game, Encyclopedia Eorzea I and II, item references, and more. The Twelve posts and location lore are some of my favorites but really all of this is fantastic. Very accessible.
HARMONEA: Has assembled a HUGE collection of lets plays on youtube that are organized and well-paced, showing everything from MSQ to Ascian-lore specifically to Job quests and beyond. This has been truly helpful whenever I want to check a reference but don’t necessarily have time to New Game + or check the Unending Journey in-game. It’s easy to jump around to find exactly the scenes you’re looking for, and compare moments from different points during the game.
GARLAND TOOLS DATABASE: Sometimes I need lore details from specific quests, that aren’t in cutscenes or easily found in a video. Garland Tools helps with tracking down quotes, character information, and much more. Also contains data around NPC designs. Doesn’t have cutscene quotes, but does have enough info to find what cutscenes you’ll likely need to watch. Whether on youtube or in the Unending Journey, it gets much easier spotting references.
TALES FROM THE CALAMITY, TALES FROM THE DRAGONSONG WAR, TALES FROM THE STORM, CHRONICLES OF LIGHT: THE HUNT BEGINS, TALES FROM THE SHADOWS, TALES FROM THE TWILIGHT: These are official FFXIV short stories associated with A Realm Reborn, Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers respectively. The story from Chronicles of Light is also canon but insanely difficult to locate, contains details surrounding Zenos’s backstory and psychology. These absolutely carry lore details! You don’t need them to understand and enjoy the game, but they give added information and context.
ALL FINAL FANTASY XIV 1.X MAIN SCENARIO CUTSCENES: I have not gone through all of this yet but you can bet your ass I have it saved.
FINAL FANTASY XIV 1.X LETS PLAY: Likewise haven’t gone through all of this yet but if you want really detailed 1.0 lore info, this has it.
OZMA’S ASCIAN REFERENCE PILE: Contains both concrete known information, game data, and speculation by Ozma as a longstanding Ascian fan. 1.0 WHITE MAGE QUESTLINE: This isn’t 100% canon anymore, but I’m including it because it actually shows the Elementals in voiced roles and that is a huge deal. Worth noting this youtuber has other 1.0 videos documented too.
BOTANICA EORZEA: This contains all lore surrounding the plants of Eorzea, organized and accessible.
MINERICA EORZEA: Sent by @firecattebird, A fully searchable, organized, and accessible doc containing all the lore I could find in-game about the things we pull from mining nodes.
LODESTONE SONG LYRICS COMPILATION: There are often other places you can google around for official song lyrics and I usually use those, but if you want everything in one place this is your spot!
ETHYS ASHER: Has some really good coverage of the niche parts of Eorzea’s history and solid discussion/speculation surrounding various lore elements. I haven’t gotten to investigate deeply but did enjoy his coverage around Belah’dia and the Great Wyrms.
Lastly, while not lore related I do want to share a particularly fun resource with the people who might be peeking over.
EORZEA COLLECTION: A lot of players in FFXIV are heavily invested in the design components of the game, and this is a hub for that. Whether you’re looking for something in the vein of Dark Souls, something outrageously silly, something cute, something majestic, etc. you can basically find all kinds of tones/experiments here. You can restrict what you see by job, race, gender, etc. and order according to recency or loves. It’s also somewhere you can see how gear looks with different characters, dyes, and combinations. Very organized and can be a useful resource for farming.

The wandering Necromancer: Valerian often takes the odd contract here and there to put the dead to rest, while never calling himself an exorcist he certainly conducts himself as they do. On the occasion he will raise the dead to answer important questions whenever he’s on a contract…but those moments are far and few in-between.
Collector of Tomes: Valerian certainly loves collecting old texts of magical origin and knowledge, having an impressive collection all on his own. Interested in someone who has vast magical knowledge? Then this Necromancer would certainly fit your bill!
Underground Markets: Valerian has connections to the underground markets of Ul’dah, given his work it would stand to reason he’d need to get his hands on rare and valuable reagents. If you are seeking to acquire something of value then Valerian might be able to facilitate the dealings for you!
Other Hooks: I’m down to write most anything, if you have an idea then I’d love it if you pitched it to me! Let’s work something out!
General OOC —
I am over the age of 21 so I would generally prefer my RP partners to be older as well! It’s just a comfort and maturity thing.
I am a mirror poster, meaning I’ll put in as much as you give me! That being said I naturally gravitate towards the longer end of the posting spectrum!
I operate on the EST time zone so please keep that in mind!
I’m open to most plot ideas, if you are unsure then please ask me. I don’t bite! ^,….,^
look at me, i’m a sea, i’m your sea.

Hi there! Are you participating in the horror event that @the-children are hosting for the FFXIV community? Do you want to? Would you like to make connections?!
I'm opening up the BSB FC house for an unofficial open-invite 'meeting' for those who'd like to make connections in-game to further pursue the plot, or just meet people involved! For now, it's tentatively set for this coming Thursday, 10/7, 'starting' roughly around 6pm CST. Come early, come late, there's no set times! The idea is to help people come together who might not normally - a neutral setting to overhear that others are having spooky things happen, make plans, or maybe even all experience something terrible together! Bonds forged in fire sometimes have unlikely results, after all.
Don't think of it as a formal sort of 'meeting' IC, so much as...happenstance? Or maybe its work of The Forces That Be, that you're all here on the night of happenstance? You decide!
When: Thursday, October 7th
Where: Bluesky Jazz Lounge, Shirogane Ward 5, Plot 24
(Realistically, this space is all business fronts, all crime is behind closed doors, and people are welcome to use them as backdrops when they like - it's here to further RP!)
What people know, what they believe, what they accept? Those are all different matters, aren't they?
Thank you @plupatredis for the Glam Shadow Of The Body with a few tweaks. I needed my witches hat.
she lingers in your mind like a wraith
𝔦𝔫 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔫𝔦𝔤𝔥𝔱, 𝔰𝔥𝔢 𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔦𝔣𝔢𝔰𝔱𝔰 ONEIROPHRENIA: A hallucinatory, dreamlike state caused by several conditions such as prolonged sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation or drugs. PROMPT ELEVEN | MASTERLIST | WORD COUNT: 770 | SONG INSPO: In The End Tw: Graphic depictions of gore/decay.
What a farce the shelter of wakefulness was, that it claimed to shelter one from the terrors of sleep.
In the dead of night, when the will of Llymlaen calmed the sea to a sheen of glass and the cosmos expanded brilliantly in the inky black sky, the captain of the Wolfsbane could be seen at the wheel of her ship. Her crew had long since grown accustomed to such behaviour, conducting their nightly routines around her or descending below deck for some much needed personal leisure. On these nights, where gentle waves lapped the sides of her vessel, one could achieve the deepest sleep. Rocked by the very mother of La Noscea, they were but babes in a vast cradle.
Kor could not allow herself the pleasure. In the deepest sleep she hunted her, that darkened memory that lingered in the shadows and distorted the mirror when she dared to look too close. Hers was the vision she saw when she closed her eyes; a single lantern, a wooden table and a body resting on pale linen. Sometimes, if she thought about it too long, she could swear the smell still lingered in her nose.
Sailors told stories of sirens. Beautiful women perched on craggy rocks whose songs would lure men to their deaths. She thought it ludicrous at first – most especially because her bastard of a father could never deny himself a pretty woman, and he wasn’t dead yet – but, in more recent times, she’d come to appreciate the superstition.
Perhaps a siren need not be beautiful.
It was always the catch of her dress first. The cotton turned see-through in the water, fanning in the air as if though it were the deepest oceans. Kor’s knuckles turned white as she gripped the wheel and she looked away.
“You’re not real,” she reminded her ( or, more accurately, she reminded herself ). “You’re not real.”
But the wraith did not care for illusion or reality, and she continued to stare.
Kor’s tongue ran the length of her bottom lip, teeth pressing hard into the skin. She’d be the fool to think that a simple word could dispel her, and she looked up slowly to witness her fully.
Almost a doppelgänger. Hers was the same wavy red hair, more ginger than her crimson, yet it was the only thing that felt recognisable. Though her gaze bore into her she had no eyes – the hazel had long been eaten by fish – and her mottled skin was marked by veins that turned blue in the beginning of bloat. She didn’t say anything, but the muted expression on her face was descriptor enough.
It was vacant.
“You’re dead,” she choked. Always the same sight – this darkened apparition wreathed in seaweed and sea-life – yet she seemed intent on refusing the inevitable.
Your fault, your fault, your fault – YOUR FAULT!
Lily opened her mouth, sand pouring from the orifice.
She screamed.
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!
Time both seemed to speed past and stand still, for it was both instantaneous and a millennia before another soul pulled her from the brink. His hands around her shoulders were painful in their force, but it was only when he pulled her into his chest and shielded her face from the sight did Kor realise the scream was not her sister’s.
It was hers.
“Hey, hey, you’re alright. Kor? Kor, you’re fine. Everything’s fine.”
She might have laughed at how the seriousness of the situation chased the formality from Robince’s tongue but, as her first mate pulled back enough to cup her face and access her for any injuries, she hated to say that it was only her sanity that was bruised. Her fingers curled around his wrists, sobs wracking her skinny body, and when she looked up the ghost was gone.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry – “
“For what?” He asked, though even he knew deep down the apology was not aimed at him. It was aimed at the girl whose flesh had long turned to bone in the icy blue; whose revenge had seldom brought the peace she surely craved.
“You need to sleep –”
“I can’t, Rob. Sleep doesn’t help. Wakefulness doesn’t help. Not even killing him helped,” Kor croaked, finally pulling herself free of his grip. When had she fallen onto the ground? Embarrassing, she was an embarrassment. No wonder her father thought her a waste.
Wiping her mouth with the back of her hand, she shook her head. “I need a couple of minutes. I’ll be fine. I am fine.”

I have discord and can also be found in game (Balmung server, Eve Baskara). I do enjoy all kinds of RP, but I'm not looking for hookups or ERP without context. I prefer organic storytelling and don't really enjoy forcing relationships. If it happens it happens, but that's not my main goal with my writing! Message me if you're interested in connecting!
In Memorandum to all the Monk animations I’ll never see again. May they always be remembered for *random hand motions* whatever.
