Agreed, I just don't get how an archer can just start tuning a guitar right away.

What job would you throw in the trash?

Mirabelle doesn't believe in unjustified fighting unless her friends are involved. Kenji believed once violence is a necessity to survive in the world since he had blood on his hands from his time in the yakuza now he wants to use his skills to help others to seek a new life.

Anri @missalmondsxiv.bsky.social · 3d

what is your OC's relationship with violence like?

is it something they happily indulge in, i.e. combat as a sport (or plain cruelty i guess)? is it a tool like any other to them? is it only acceptable when justified, i.e. to defend others? is it fundamentally wrong, no matter the cause?

She hangs out for most of the events for the seasonal events, Halloween and Christmas ones from last year is Canon tho haha. Same with Kenji, I haven't done the Halloween event yet for this year's ff14 event since I'm taking a huge break from the game.

Mirabelle grew up in Gridania, Kenji was pretty much an orphan in Doma since his actual parents are gone from the garlean invasion until he got adopted by mirabelle's parents

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 5d

Kenji would visit Kigane and Doma once a year to visit his actual parents grave, also Gridania more often given that Mirabelle’s parents live there. Mirabelle also stops by at home to see her parents once in a while.

Is there any place / place(s) your wol visits frequently? Is there any reason they visit these places / memories associated with these locations?

And yes they both eat their vegetables.

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 7d

Mirabelle ate food from mostly Sharlayan and Gridania food also Doman food since Kenji and Mirabelle lived together. Kenji is more used to the palette of Doman/Hingashi food and is his comfort food to him. He’s not a big fan of Ishgardian food tho lol

cheembs 👍 @asterposting.bsky.social · 10d

#wolqotd

what did ur wol/oc eat growing up?

how was it influenced by their culture / location / family's wealth, etc.? is their palate mostly the same now as it was then?

and i have to ask, did they eat their vegetables?

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 12d

Mirabelle is my ranged class (BLM, DNC, SGE) and she’d probably kick their ass if it comes that. Kenji is melee (GNB, NIN, SAM) and he’d probably pull out a gun if he had to keep his distance.

I R A @roira.bsky.social · 17d

#wolqotd I am curiosity once again. In combat, does your WoL/OC prefer to be in melee or ranged range, and what do they use to fight? And in a situation where they are forced into the other (melee forced ranged // ranged forced melee), do they have a secondary weapon of choice?

2

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 12d

I mostly take Mirabelle’s outfits from irl fashion doesn’t matter which one. Kenji’s story is pretty much like how former yakuza members were like

#wolqotd / #wolquestion

just asked this to a mutual but i'm curious for the general community:

what are your biggest real world influences on your wol? where do you draw most of your inspiration from?

2

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 12d

Hot take: warrior, I don’t vibe with the enraged axe and smash everything, I wasn’t a huge fan of the quests for warrior from ARR to HW, haven’t done Stormblood’s. Plus I find warrior boring to me. If not warrior, then BRD, I don’t find bow and instruments that interesting.

#wolqotd #ffxiv Let's say you're given a free Job Level Skip tome for some reason. Which job (regardless of whether you unlocked it or not) would you skip and why?

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 12d

Mirabelle’s striking and sharp eyes keeps people attracted

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 13d

Kenji never went to the First, however for Mirabelle, her aether got unbalanced given that she had voidsent powers cuz of a BLM spell she made, she got really sick for a while, and learned to lean on others. She got saved by a Sage and learned SGE next to Dancer.

#wolqotd #wolquestion
How did absorbing light-aspected aether from the Sin Eaters affect your WOL/OC during the events of Shadowbringers? Does the effect of light poisoning still linger currently?

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 18d

Kenji didn’t tell his childhood friend that he survived the Doman invasion , Ayame presumed Kenji to have died. Mirabelle almost became a sin eater and it just made Haseo feel like his friends are worth fighting for. Also, he caught feelings in Endwalker.

Ikumi Yamoshi 📚WOLQOD Enthusiast📚 @moon-petals.bsky.social · 19d

#wolquestion / #wolqotd

Has your wol / oc ever hurt or harmed a love one (mentally, physically, etc). How did it go and what happened? Was it intentional or an accident?

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 20d

Mirabelle is 22 and Kenji is 26-28

For Mirabelle and Kenji’s story, I keep the lore canon for the most part but I change some things here and there to suit their arcs.

This is for the player: How much lore breaking do you do? Or do you follow cannon lore to the T?

Mirabelle would most likely be the one talking and spamming the chat, Kenji would leave them on read or give short answers when needed. Or one word answers lol

What would a group chat be like with your wol / oc?

TrappedSnake @trappedsnake.bsky.social · 25d

Non FF14 related stuff, but I’ve been playing FF6 for the past 2 days, it’s amazing. I can see where Stormblood got its ideas from.

Reapers were originally Garlean field workers in southern Ilsabard. After facing constant attacks by invaders, they were driven from the bountiful Locus Amoenus and into the frozen mountains to the north nearly 800 years ago.
