I’d need to do more research and see important that play into their designs but I’d like to see some of them better depicted.

Not only that, I think I remember seeing a pic of G’raha more accurately depicted based on his home in Corvos and I wanted to see if I could depict the Scions like that.

Shaaloani, more specifically in Sheshenewezi Springs.

The FFXIV community has a problem with racism/orientalism and try to hide behind "it's just fiction" while actively roleplaying a fascist or a walking racial stereotype. People refuse to believe fiction reflects reality.

Cerix’s dialect is very modern, present-day speech. 30 years in Solution Nine will do that to you. Beforehand, they spoke with a sort of early 1900s dialect.

I was thinking…
If I wanted to make story gposes involving the Scions, would it be too much to remake their designs? Their current ones feel very… homogenized to me and considering how diverse XIV’s world is supposed to be, I’d like to pull some ideas to make new designs for them.

im cryinggggggggg 😭😭💀💀💀

She just straight spitting lmaooo
😭😭😭

I love this so much lmaooooooo

why yes, i very much do this lol

Good morniiiiiing!

Won’t go into too much detail, but it along with a few other factors did affect the way I see myself and the what I do to cope with those feelings.

Cerix also explores themes of neglectful parenting, though that specifically needs a lot more time to stew before I can fully commit to writing that.

Cerix is supposed to be, in my eyes, the idea of accepting what makes you, even if a lot of those things aren’t what you are looking for. Cerix being this neutral evil character is supposed to be a reflection of how I see myself. A little personal, but I was diagnosed with autism at an early age.

You’re not unmotivated.

You’re overwhelmed.

You’re not “too sensitive”.

You’re attuned.

You’re not dramatic.

You’re dysregulated.

Language has been used to wound us.

It’s time we take it back.

Being autistic doesn’t make you a bad person.

I can’t say this enough.

real quick.

teaching someone to love you is a myth. if they listen, if they take the time to learn you, if they take the time to invest into communicating and learning your interests; that is indeed lesson enough.

never feel like you need to handhold someone into understanding how to love you.

Like the Ascians being named after the Scions of Light, the presence of auracite in ARR, waaaay before the Ivalice raids touched on it, Venat basically following the same story beats as her Occuria counterpart in XII… There’s probably more connections, but I don’t know all of them.

#cerixrambling

If the next expansion actually does start a lead up into Ultima being the main villain, I’m gonna be excited… but I’m also gonna laugh, considering how many cues XIV takes from XII and Tactics already.

Late, but I got you right now

Nah fr ‘cause like

Dawntrail is like so damn surreal after Endwalker ‘cause we went from saving an entire world to just… exploring a new continent lol

Lol
Considering what they’ve had to kill beforehand, powerful and aggressive animals is probably a cakewalk for them lmao

I mean, vidraal are just feral auspices and the WoL kills multiple of them, so…

NAH FOR REAL LIKE I JUST CANT SWITCH LIKE THAT

Cerix is my baby, I can’t just let them go to use a new character aaaaaa ;w;

See, this is why I have trouble making new OCs because I get so attached to the one ;o;

Well, wait, did it state in lore that auspices are immortal? I think they just don’t age, same as the vidraal.

So, wait, question. Is she like… an auspice or a spirit that’s similar to one?
