Sha'dow, Drow in Eorzea, Pls Use Alt Text! 7.3 Spoilers! @stormcaptweaver.bsky.social · 20d

(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.⤵️

Sha'dow, a genderfluid Drow with charcoal skin and windswept looking white shoulder length hair parted on the left, white goatee and mustache trimmed in the Van Dyke style. They have a blind right eye with a white tattoo looking scar running over it, and a gray left eye. They're wearing purple earrings, a gold monocle, a black dinner jacket, lilac cardigan, and black button up shirt. They're in a Limsa Lominsan room, their hands in a heart-shape in front of them, actual pink hearts radiating out from them. You can see a bed and a writing desk behind them, as well as an entire wall made out of windows

(I understand. I finished the MSQ, and currently only log in for housing and events. Sometimes I level my sidejobs and work on my alts, but not much. My brain is kind of shot--not that I don't love the game, I just... I been drinking the depresso espresso WAY too much lately😅)

(Already know canonically speaking Jane Eyre is Sha'dow's favorite, canonically speaking, and they've read it 13 times!🤣)

Out of the books that you the player have read, which do you think would be your WoL/OC's favourite?

(Re-exporting and hoping the subtitles WORK this time (why yes, yes I DID burn in a subtitle track... because accessibility matters!🥰))

(I just spent 6.5 hours editing this damn video. I hope it works. And no, there are no fancy title cards, no fancy transitions. It's just straight up clipped together cobbled BS. I really hope this export works!🤣)

(I ended up getting uh... *checks notes* ShotCut. It basically has an editor similar to HitFilm, so it's not that much of a learning curve outside of the mode selection (totally unintuitive), I've already got the audio chopped up, now it's just figuring out what emotes to capture!🤣)

(I would 100% say that counts, yes! (especially as someone who had non-alcoholic liver disease))

Sha'dow, Drow in Eorzea, Pls Use Alt Text! 7.3 Spoilers! @stormcaptweaver.bsky.social · 9h

(So my plans to do a video with voice clips from Saints Row over emotes of Sha'dow is going to take longer than I thought. Turns out HitFilm (the program I used) has been... Depreciated, and uh... It doesn't work with Win11 so very nice. So I'm having to learn a whole new editor.

Fun times!)

(Saints Row is one of my favorite/comfort game series, and I love it dearly. I hate 2 runs like absolute GARBO on the PC, so it's difficult (at BEST) to play. But yeah, the Boss has some AMAZING lines across the whole series, and Male Voice 3 (the Brit) is 100% Sha'dow's voice claim)

Sha'dow, Drow in Eorzea, Pls Use Alt Text! 7.3 Spoilers! @stormcaptweaver.bsky.social · 11h

(I should actually take some of the voice clips from Saints Row and have them to Sha'dow emoting. It'd be hilarious.🤣)

(Food poisoning is ROUGH. Had a bout this past August that nearly did for me. That stuff ain't no joke! 😬)

Sha'dow, Drow in Eorzea, Pls Use Alt Text! 7.3 Spoilers! @stormcaptweaver.bsky.social · 23h

(Nice. I should probably figure out what song plays for Sha'dow during that. I'll do that tomorrow, maybe...)

(Yeah like, no joke my WoL and me both really just can't stand Zenos. Just... Genuinely.🤣

At least Emet-Selch has panache!🥰)

Sha'dow, Drow in Eorzea, Pls Use Alt Text! 7.3 Spoilers! @stormcaptweaver.bsky.social · 1d

(This is the way. Sha'dow (and I) hate Zenos so much. Just... We HATES IT! WE HAAAAAAAAAAATES IT! FOREVAAAA!🤣)

(BATTLE SOULMATES🤣 totally stealing that for when I write more fics with Fordola.

And yeah, I can ALMOST see the ship through that lens, if I hang upside down, squint, and look sideways over my shoulder in the mirror.🙃

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE BATTLE JUNKIES! WOO HOO!)

(No no, that's fair. And the twist to the question is fun! Love what you did there!

Sha'dow is also a battle junkie, ain't no lie. Just not against Zenos. Because Sha'dow hates Zenos with a livid passion unbridled.🤣)

Yugiri in this ship. They neither one can quit each other, just like the vocalists in the song. But they also both know it's over, as long as Yugiri is in service to Hien. But ain't neither of 'em QUITE willing to let it go.

And it leads to some serious hurt for both of 'em.

CONSTANTLY.🧵)

(Essenger's (feat. Lexi Norton) song "Downfall" just came on. That's my Sha'dow/Yugiri ship song, 100%. So #WoLQotD #WoLQuestion, who's your WoL/OC's "Downfall?"

Who's that ONE NPC (or other OC) they just can't quit? No matter how much they try?

And for the record, it's just as much Sha'dow as⤵️

I shouldn't stay
But can't help but wonder
I hate the way (I love the way)
That you pull me under
I know I've made mistakes
But this could be my downfall
You could be my downfall

(Sha'dow is virtually immune to all things spicy, and thinks "the spicier the better."

So uh... Bring on the flavor? Virtually is always cooking with cayenne pepper, red pepper, and others. So like... Iunno.

Maybe a good bird pepper?)

Not a new shift but I gotta ask anyway.

Which Season would you pick to give one solid punch to your OC?
