(Hi, I'm Diana. I RP several characters in #FFXIV. My main is a snarky, Geordie-Slang speaking, genderfluid Drow (yes, Drow) named Sha'dow Weaver. They're a Storm Captain with the Maelstrom, AGGRESSIVELY polyamorous, afflicted with the Spellplague AND Aether Sickness, and main RDM/MCH/DRK.⤵️
(That anyone blessed with the Echo can take part in the MSQ storyline (Sha'dow does not do parts of the SB patch quests, for example, as they're taking care of Karine-my partner's Echo blessed character does)

Aether Sickness is a Thing™

The Word of the Mother WAS TEMPERED!

And

Rowena is Evil)
#wolqotd for the players, what's a headcanon you have bout something in the setting that's not necessarily related to your character? a worldbuilding detail, a plotline thing, etc etc.

( obligatory reminder but pls respect your fellows in fandom; don't just take others' headcanons without asking. )

(Reposting this. #FinalFantasyXIV #Fanfiction. #WoLFilia. It is ALL HURT NO COMFORT. #Shadowbringers. Tags are included. It is exactly what it says on the tin. If you're curious why I say "ALL HURT NO COMFORT," well...

It is, like the tags say, "HE CAN'T SEE WITHOUT HIS GLASSES" levels of trauma.🥰)
archiveofourown.org/works/72657211 (My latest #WoLFilia #FFXIV #FanFiction, takes place during #Shadowbringers. I have included the tags on this one, because seriously. You lot need to know what you're getting into. It is rated M. Because seriously. Enjoy! Or don't, I'm not your mom.🥰)

(So @localelezen.bsky.social is doing the #OneLightChallenge, and I took that personally (since I nearly always use one-point perspective facial lighting/Rembrandt-esq lighting). So here, have some Sha'dow in their fancy new RDM glam!)

(As close to a "year in review" as I can get for Bsky. Thread inbound.⤵️

(Take your pick of Sleep Token songs. REALLY take your pick off Even in Arcadia, but if only just one? Look to Windward, just for this segment right here, which sums Sha'dow up in a nutshell)
December 4, 2025 at 12:07 PM
(Sha'dow has Ascilia's dagger (in game Heart Snatcher) they use off handed with a blade of pure ice in their main hand as a Rogue (not NIN even though the job stone is equipped), and their Captain's Rapier Ascilia gave them when she asked them to take up Red Magic over Black. They don't use it as ⤵️
#WoLQotD | #WoLQuestion

Does your WoL/OC have a special weapon? If so, does it have a name and back story?
December 4, 2025 at 3:07 AM
(Sha'dow has two: Ascilia's Eternity Band, made from a Ring of Three Wishes (expended: First wish, keep their sister happy, healthy, and safe until they could be reunited after the spellplague... Poor phrasing led to "Sha'dow Must Suffer" meme🤣. Second Wish: before their spark ignited, they were ⤵️
#wolqotd
What's your WoL/OC's comfort thing? Something they use to be comfortable when stressed, a little sentimental thing they can't be without? What's their security blanket? Tell me about it! Where did it come from? Why is it special? How long have they had it?
December 3, 2025 at 3:56 AM
(Now, **I** know who Sha'dow is a synthesis of... But I'm wonderin' who all YOU LOT are feelin'?🥰)
December 3, 2025 at 3:31 AM
(Guys, gals, and non-binary pals, not gonna lie, my brain is scattered to the winds right now, I can't think straight, I can't focus, and I'm forgetting things. Bear with me. Posts will be...

Unfocused AF.)
December 2, 2025 at 4:23 PM
(Sha'dow runs their fingers through their hair, or pinches the bridge of their nose.

If the former, they're nervous, upset, or worried. If the latter, they're VERY annoyed.)
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

Name a nervous habit of your wol / oc. How often do they find themselves relying on this habit?
December 2, 2025 at 4:22 PM
OI! 'At's me WIFE ye're yammerin' on aboot, twelve rest 'er soul, weren't nae cult, divvin' even start. Path o' the Twelve were nowt but Echo research, helpin' folk get 'eir bearin' when 'eir heed were full o' visions an' voices.

Same thin' I dee 'ese days wi' Fordola, like.

Nae cultish aboot it.⤵️
#wolqotd

does your wol think the pre-scion orphan house was not a cult, a cult, or definitely a cult
December 2, 2025 at 11:46 AM
(To the person in Alliance Raid that recognized me (not gonna name you, cause seriously, safety stuff🥰) YOU MADE MY FUCKING NIGHT. Chat culled the messages and I couldn't screenshot it, but aye gods, I've been smiling since you asked if I was Sha'dow from Bluesky. Thank you. You da best!)
December 2, 2025 at 8:00 AM
(Share one of your favorite games)
December 2, 2025 at 7:03 AM
(So #WoLAotdAfterDark and #NSFW I believe most of Sha'dow's partners refer to them as a quite "Cunning Linguist." Why use fingers when their partners TASTE SO GOOD?

Though when they do use fingers, there's a spot inside each partner that drives them wild, as well as varied pressure on the clit. ⤵️
#wolqotdafterdark does your OC have a specific stroking/fingering technique ? what's their jerk off game like bro
December 2, 2025 at 3:57 AM
All o' th' above, innit? Waltzin' in th' snow wi' Fordola's become right regular, what wi' her never havin' grown up 'round it. Our first propa date were a dance on a snowy lit eve', up Camp Dragonhead way, after I sprung me hinny out th' cage, s'trewth.

An' aye, we hel' ontae each other tight.
#wolqotd
It's a cozy evening or late night, maybe the seasons are changing and it's getting a little colder... what's your WoL doing to relax? Are they cuddling up on the couch with someone special? Taking a walk in the snow, if they frequent somewhere that gets it? A good book and cocoa in bed? ✨️🥰

(Guys, gals, and non-binary pals... I have a problem. I can't stop looking at this picture...😍)
(I have described Sha'dow casting before, and how spellfire flares in their blind eye. I've FINALLY managed to--thanks to @silverhorn.moe--figure out a way to get a picture of that!

BEHOLD!)

If you were to give your wol(oc)'s story genres and/or tags what would they be?

(An pair of images, the first is an adult Alphinaud, a wildwood elezne with white hair, sharp eyes, and a suave, intense look, looking over his right shoulder. He's dressed in white robes with gold and blue trim, very dignified.

The second is an adult Alisaie, a wildwood elezine with pixie cut ⤵️
// I’ve made a lot of things this year that I’m super proud of, but I keep looking at how well the adult twins turned out and BEAMING, I’m so proud of how good they look!!!!

esp Alphi, since he took the longest

instant serotonin whenever I see him fr, I can’t wait to shoot more with him

(I have crested 100 followers! Wow. I'm... I'm genuinely blown away, humbled, and thank each and every one of you.

I don't know what to say, truly. You lot are the best. The fact you enjoy a slang speakin', spell slingin' Drow Warrior of Light, and my silly lil' headcanon warms my cockles.🥰)
