Ahhhh look at this gorgeous doodle of Mazeh'a by @leafimochi.bsky.social 💜

His floofy ears! His somewhat grumpy but vulnerable expression! I am in love with how this artist captured him (and thanks to Iron for the recommendation!)

#ffxivart #miqote #ravnurxiv
A drawing of Mazeh'a by leafimochi on bsky. He's a grey-skinned Moonkeeper with one golden eye visible, looking at the screen with a vulnerable but mildly disapproving look. His ears are fluffy and large, and his silvery hair is tied in a silky ponytail. He's wearing a black lace collared top with an open chest window. His head has a dark grey-blue halo of stars.

And yes, here is a quick snapshot of Ravnur's butt as an offering
A snapshot of a man's body in profile from below to the shoulder to halfway down the thighs. He's holding a bouquet in his arms and wearing a dark green crop with brown pants. His tail, peppery on the top half and grey-blue along the bottom half, is prominently shown.

It's Ravnur's chosen nameday!

(Fun fact: he knows he was born around this time and just chose a specific date for convenience, mostly to stop people from pestering him!)

#gpose #ffscreenshots #viera #maleviera #ravnurxiv
A male Viera named Ravnur sits in front of a grand strawberry nameday cake with 4 lit candles. The cake is closer to the screen than he is, and he's bordered by a golden frame created by Candle. He's leaning on one curled hand and smiling, one eye winking and the other set on the viewer. His other hand is reaching towards the nearest strawberry and looking like it's just touching it. The entire picture is warm.

RoevemberXIV 30: Haven

My dearest friends. My haven. I could never do it without you.

#roevemberxiv #roevemberxiv2025 #gpose #ff14 #lonesnowdropxiv #roegadyn
Three female OCs sit on a hanging bench under a tree. There are yellow leaves strewn under their feet. The green-haired Hellsguard is looking at the Viera with a smile. The blue-haired Miqo woman is napping against the Hellsguard, one armed linked, tail resting on the Viera's knee. The Viera is golding a teacup and laughing at something the Hellsguard said. It's sunny and beautiful.

RoevemberXIV 28: Season

Spring, chasing away the chill of winter and providing a bit of reprieve before summer heat. It is a reminder that life can find its way after dormancy again.

Vertical shot of a brown-skinned, green-haired Roegadyn woman among flowers. Her pastel green dress is fanned around her hips as she's running towards the right side of the screen. She's surrounded by a sunlit grove of cherry blossoms above her head and wildflowers by her feet. A gold embellished frame borders the picture. Vertical shots of two Roegadyn woman, one in spring and the other in autumn. Lone Snowdrop's pastel green dress is fanned around her hips as she's running towards Eidin, her lover. Eidin is reaching back towards her, one arm tucked behind her back as if asking for a dance. The pictures are mirrored.

Roevember 26: Shatter

Arisen with one last purpose, wrapped in forged steel and deadlier than ever, she hunts imperials from smoke-filled skies once more.

The Shrike of Ala Mhigo.

#roevemberxiv #roevemberxiv2025 #gpose #ff14 #lonesnowdropxiv #roegadyn
A vertical shot in Ghimlyt Dark. Lone Snowdrop (also known as The Shrike) is mid-flight with her glowing lance at the top of the picture, arm pulled back as if she's right about to impale her prey. Zenos is in full armour at the bottom of the screen, leaning down a bit and bracing for impact. Bright grey smoke fills the background between them, and behind Zenos is an eerie shot of fire-filled wreckage.

This match was dreadful but hey, Lone Snowdrop looked pretty in her dress (◕‿◕✿)
The Rival Wings platform in the middle of the map is shown from the top of the stairs. A woman with dark green hair, in a flowing multi-layered white floral dress, is shown in 3rd person. She's holding a spear and defending the platform. Ahead of her, there are some people exploding and dying, and a pink-haired teammate is running towards her from the left.

Four characters stand together making a heart with their hands towards the screen. Three are male Viera and the fourth is a Hyur, who is a bunboy in spirit. They stand in the last dungeon of Another Alo Alo criterion.

Roevember 18: Project

"Something like this belongs to Kryss, not me."

Lone Snowdrop eventually gets asked to take on the difficult project of Ala Mhigo’s restoration. Full lore write-up: www.tumblr.com/ravandfriend...

#roevemberxiv #roevemberxiv2025 #gpose #ff14 #lonesnowdropxiv #roegadyn
A tall Hellsguard woman stands next to M'naago in Rhalgr's Reach. They're discussing a map and taking notes over Ala Mhigan restoration duties. An Ala Mhigan glaive is seen closer to the foreground, resting on top of a map on the table. By Lone Snowdrop's legs, Lolorito can be seen with a hand raised as if he's being ignored.

Roevember 15: Handmade

"Home.

Whether it was about the necklace or the woman holding it, I could not tell you."

Collaborated with my dear friend eidingate on Tumblr.

#roevemberxiv #roevemberxiv2025 #gpose #ff14 #lonesnowdropxiv #roegadyn
Two Roe women sit at a candle-lit dinner date. The green-haired Sea Wolf, Eidin, is looking cheeky and holding a hand behind her back. Her other hand is held up as to say, wait. The brown-skinned Hellsguard, Lone Snowdrop, is mid-laugh and holding a wine glass. There is a botanical candle + chilled wine set up between them at the end of the table. Eidin is putting a tiger-eye pendant around Lone Snowdrop's neck. Lone Snowdrop has lifted her hair out of the way, and her eyes are cut off. Her lips are barely parted in anticipation. The viewer can see Eidin's tender, satisfied smile as she clasps the necklace.

Roevember 13: Abandoned

I know the reason why she asked. I understand it. But I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel like I was abandoned anyway.

A brown-skinned Row woman is lit from the front and above, head tilted towards a darker brown hand caressing her cheek. Her expression is pained and she's crying. One hand is shown reaching up, knuckles caressing her mother's darker-skinned hand.

Roevember 08: Collection

Ever since I was little, I always knew I wanted the comfort of having green, living things around me. To grow something with my own hands instead of taking it out of the world.

A Hellsguard Roegadyn woman is shown watering her plants in a sunlit cabin-like apartment. Bright white light is streaming down from a window behind her. She has an empty clay pot tucked against her hip, and her other hand holds a watering can above a barrel of flowers. In the foreground, you can see some large fanned leaves of another plant. On the table across from a paissa chair, there are various potted plants and flowers. She's dressed in white and red jammies.

Almost all of my OCs are BIPOC-coded + deal with intergenerational (racial) trauma, diaspora identity, immigration, and systemic grief. This is just a sampling, as I have many OCs (whether connected to the ones below and not) that I don't share publicly.
Two men sit at a study bench in Sharlayan. The white-haired Miqo is holding a book, legs crossed, dressed in a white scientist's coat and black boots. He's leaning over to the brown-skinned Viera man squatting beside him on the bench, one arm crossed and the other by his chin in thought. They look like they're discussing the book on a sunny morning. A brown-skinned Roe woman, Lone Snowdrop, is looking down at the viewer. The filter over the picture makes her eyes look very stark and gold, though in reality she has one green eye. Her dark green hair is tied into a Gyr Abanian plait. Her expression is amused. A dark-skinned Rava man is pictured towards the right. His dark red eyes are looking down at something, hand at chest. His long black hair is tied up and the edge of a golden hoop earring can be seen at the top. He's in Radz-at-Han.

Roevember 04: Creature

One takes to the sky with a glaive in hand, ready to impale... the other takes to the ground with fists, ready to disrupt and break living aetherflow and metal alike.

The picture is headed with "The Lynx" written in brown against the sky. Krysswyda, a green-skinned Roegadyn woman with brown hair and orange-gold highlights, is seen laughing. One fist is in the air and the other is close to the camera, giving the impression that she's a monk fighter. Lone Snowdrop, a brown-skinned Roegadyn woman with short green hair is behind her with a lance, one muscular arm up as a brace. They're both looking at each other intensely. The bottom of the picture says "The Shrike" in white.

Happy belated birthday to Thesa for @fourteenthz.bsky.social ! It's about a month after Thesa Day but what can I say, Ravnur does things on his own time and no one can tell him what to do, including me lmao

#ff14 #viera #maleviera #gpose #ravnurxiv
Ravnur and Thesa scaling a cliff with Worqor Zormor in the background. Rav is looking down and grinning between his raised arms and Thesa is running a hand through her hair. Sparring photo of Thesa and Ravnur at sunset with the falls in the background. Thesa is doing a high kick, which Rav has blocked with one hand. Ravnur and Thesa are sitting together at the base of a tree when it's raining in Kozama'Uka. Thesa has her eyes closed, taking in the scents and atmosphere while Rav looks at her, arms folded and one knee up. Their backpacks are next to them.

A belated birthday gpose for a moot on Tumblr, who asked for a knight in steel. I designed it to resemble a collectible card!

#ff14 #gpose #viera #maleviera #ravnurxiv
Ravnur is standing in a vertical shot framed by gold designs. He's got a fist up in the air, lit with dramatic but soft white-gold light from above. His curved sword is resting in his hand but coming towards the camera, blurring a bit as it does. He's framed by a night sky and pinkish lights above and a field of pink flowers below.

Roevember 01: Starting Out

All I've ever known is how to fight and flee. Make the best out of loss. Survive. But now that I'm here, I... this is the first time I'm truly alone... What am I going to do now?

#roevemberxiv #roevemberxiv2025 #ff14 #lonesnowdrop #roegadyn
A two-part picture of a Roegadyn woman. One half shows her in the dark of night, running from what looks like the bright red of Garlean alarms. She's halfway looking over her shoulder at whatever is chasing her. In the other half, she's standing still in Gridania and looking mildly sad. She's framed by the rise and fall of the ground as well as trees or Garlean walls.

Uh 😳😳😳

(He can cook but nothing fancy bc he eats such huge quantities. He'll try harder for his partner and if they teach him how to cook a thing, he'll make it as an act of service for them!

He'll let Mesonyx take control depending on what it is. He's got some specific boundaries but he's open.)
A "Are you X's type?" bingo card for Mesonyx, filled in by Ravnur. It's a perfect set if the lighter pink are accepted.

What is your role in the tragic play?

you know how this story ends... but you refuse to stop telling the story. and you refuse to stop loving the people in it.

A man stands dead center of the shot with a halo of light around him. Two hands reach out from the dark vignette, one curled angrily and pulling at the ends of his bangs while the other is mid-grasp on the lilies in his hair. His expression is sad, head tilted forward to cover his mouth behind a very high belted collar. The halo of light also illuminates a spike on one shoulder and feathers on the other.

A brown-skinned man, Ravnur, stands in a portrait shot of him shirtless and wet. He's looking down, eyes closed and in partial shadow compared to his torso, which is brightly lit by a pattern from his window. It creates organic tree branch-like shapes on his skin. You can just see a necklace of keys and white flowers in the more shadowed part. Behind him is lush greenery.

A portrait of a Rava man with brown skin and white-tipped black hair. The viewer is looking down at him from a high angle and can see the white lilies in his hair prominently. He has a serious expression, and is lit with tones of green, fuschia, and white. His ponytail is streaming behind him like he's in mid-motion.

Lone Snowdrop:
Pray tell, do you know what the shrike does to its prey?

A testing shot for this one-word drive entry that I really liked: bsky.app/profile/rava...

#ff14 #gpose #ffscreenshots #femroe #roegadyn #lonesnowdrop #ravnurxiv
A green-haired Roegadyn woman in full metal armour stands with her back turned towards us. Her head is turned slightly to look at us over her shoulder. The foggy shadows of the Doman gate frames her, with needle-like protrusions pointing inwards towards her. The subtitles say "Lone Snowdrop: Pray tell, do you know what the shrike does to its prey?"

A tall, brown-skinned Viera man stands in the center of the portrait. He's looking to the side and holding up a hand as if saying hi to someone off-screen. He's wearing a dark green crop top with a leather strap and brown seneschal pants. His white-tipped black hair is waving a little to the side.

Post a Mage. 🔥
Mazeh'a is a white-haired Moonkeeper mage in the center of the picture. He's dressed in black robes with silver and gold plating. One arm is down holding a black mage staff releasing purple fumes of magic, and the other is held up in a gesture that might say "See?" or "Come." In the background, there are spires of dark purple and black crystals, and a dark sky of falling stars. The whole picture is grainy but high contrast and banded by cinematic black bands like it's a widescreen movie shot.
