Here's my current roster! All links go to the character’s tag.
For posts about all/most of my characters that may not be tagged individually, see #all the characters.
Note: At the time of this writing (July 2023), I only have in-game access to my Balmung alts plus Strammund due to my current FFXIV subscription type. I'll still take asks for any of them, though!

After getting the summary of work and expectations in Ishgard, the adventuring party went their own ways. Some for a free drink at the Forgotten Knight.

Saying prayers for the dead and for themselves, the trio took in the majesty of the Cathedral and thought of other reverent times.
Matters not the size, nor the time, nor the prestige, the divine are there.
