Doesn't seem like it's letting me send DMs, but all of that does sound good!

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 14h

Hey all! While I'm still slowly working on getting my own gpose skills up to par, if anyone would like to use Anye in their own gposes my DMs are officially open to discuss! Please feel free to hit me up!

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 15h

If you're interested, I'd be glad to DM you about using Anye in gposes.

(4/2!?) As such, the Devereuxs jealously guard their winemaking techniques, and all family members are bound to the trade. For this reason, Lucien abandoning his place as heir to the house to be with Anye's mother, Rowan, was seen as a devastating scandal, and he was publicly disowned.

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 16h

(3/2, lol) On Anye's father's side, the Devereuxs are a minor Ishgardian noble house renowned across Eorzea as world-class vintners. Their wines are of such quality that they were elevated to nobility from merchant status rather than inheriting nobility through heredity.

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 16h

Well, have I got a deal for you, then! 💜

(2/2) Velodyna would be annexed by Gyr Abania a few decades prior to the Autumn War with Gridania, and was largely culturally-assimilated save for the town of Ala Arghyl, which held fast to old Velodyne customs. Sadly, Ala Arghyl was totally destroyed by Garlemald during its invasion of Gyr Abania.

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

(1/2) In Anye-lore, Velodyna was a small nation wedged between Gridania & Gyr Abania in the early Sxith Astral Era. It was primarily a mercantile nation, serving as the easternmost seaport in Aldenard, and the people had a strong relationship with the local faefolk a la Voeburt on the First.

In addition to creating lore for your WoL/OC, did you also create unique lore about where they're from? Are they part of an obscure miqo'te tribe whose culture you created from scratch? Are they from a village with its own customs? From another Reflection? Sound off!

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

In the market for a pet highlezen? 👀

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

For Anye, I had an overly ambitious story in mind of her uncovering a family curse, culminating in a D&D style campaign with other players, but it stalled due to scheduling.

Since I was away from XIV for a bit for surgery, I plan to just make it an "offscreen" thing that happened in that absence.

#wolqotd / #wolquestion

For the storytellers & roleplayers, how do you handle when a long-term story told through RP falls through? Either when it did not go to plan, or was unable to be completed due to life getting in the way? Do you retcon the storyline, or find another way to make it work?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

Lorewise, Anye is just the name her parents gave her. She has her mother's surname instead of her fathers, as her father had burnt bridges with his own family and didn't want to burden her with association to minor Ishgardian nobility she likely could never rejoin.

As the creator, is there any significance behind the name you gave to your WOL/OC? What was the thought process like and how did you decide that it was the perfect fit? Is there any additional backstory/lore you included for your character regarding their name?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

Anye isn't afraid of ghosts (more fascinated by them), but she DOES have a crippling phobia of voidsent, largely stemming from a curse put upon her lineage. Now that the curse has been lifted and the fear is no longer supernaturally enhanced though, she's made some small progress in overcoming it.

#wolqotd is your WoL/OC afraid of ghosts? 👻

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

Anye is actively trying to improve herself. She spent so much of her previous line of work putting the needs of others before her own, so she's now working on re-learning how to care for herself and prioritize her own happiness.

#wolqotd / #wolquestion

Is your wol / oc actively trying to improve themselves, or do they think they are fine as is?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 17h

"Anye Vael" is a standard name I've used for player-characters in sci-fi & fantasy RPGs dating back to KotOR 1. I just thought it sounded cool. So naturally, hopping into XIV, that was just the name I picked.

I think XIV Anye is the definitive Anye though. Easily my favorite of them.

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 1d

Anye would jump right into volunteering for relief efforts. Locating survivors, sheltering & feeding people who were suffering, performing triage, that sort of thing.

She'd basically default to doing what she did in her previous criminal life. Just, with less stealing from the rich first. Only aid.

I'm at work now, which is also acting as a shelter for those displaced.

So, how would your OC react to a natural disaster near their home?

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Joseph and the Seasons ♥ @wintercapone.bsky.social · 1d

I'm evacuated, family is in a hotel for one night, but in the panic my family forgot basic needs...

I hate asking for help, but with so many unknowns right now I've started a Gofundme.

If you don't want to donate, that's okay, but I ask that you repost 💖

There's always Bluesky. I've been away from XIV RP while recovering from surgery, but I'm working towards getting back into it and Estelle seems like a fun character to chat with!

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 2d

Saoirse, Anye's gunblade, is a custom-built piece that's made to be sturdy, yet light with minimal recoil, so that she can wield it in a manner more akin to the fencing she grew up learning.

She also has an actual rapier, Rósálainn, with dreams of someday learning Red Magick.

❄️ #WoLQotD | #WoLQuestion ❄️

Is there a reason your WoL/OC uses the weapon that they have?

Is there anything special about it or do they just use any ordinary weapon?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 2d

She'd probably just straight physically drag them away to the nearest pub, saying with a light sigh, "Ye'll getcherself killed doin' that, fella. Have a pint and simmer yerself afore ye go an' do summin' fucking stupid, aye?"

#wolqotd

Some poor misguided fool with plenty of life ahead is spoiling for a fight they cannot win. What does your WoL/OC do/say to intimidate the fool out of attacking?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 2d

Anye would probably do well in therapy. She's not shy about sharing her feelings and listening to advice if the advice-giver is trustworthy, and a therapist able to develop a good rapport with her could do a lot with that forwardness.

#wolqotd / #wolquestion

Would your wol / oc do well in therapy?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 2d

Somewhere in the late Fifth Era through early Sixth Era, probably. It's Anye's specialty as a historian, so seeing it in person would be an incredible experience, especially seeing the events that gave rise to Red Magick and getting to see her ancestral Velodyne homeland in its heyday.

If your WoL/OC was able to go back in time to - which period would that be and why?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 2d

Anye is 9, 19, & 20. Closer to 9 when the weather's colder, closer to 20 when the weather's warmer.

#wolqotd I hope no one stole this first. what do they wear to sleep

Izumi's ass naked at 20 thank you for your time

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 6d

Anye is highly attractive, having both the graceful features of an elezen and the curvaceous figure of a highlander. For her part though, she doesn't give it much thought aside from being occasionally annoyed by some people assuming that her highlander stature means she's a 'dommy mommy.' She's not.

Luna 🌙☀️ @uncoiledfury.bsky.social · 6d

A #wolqotd because I'm bored on the train (probs one that's been asked before too)

How attractive is your WoL? Do people see them as being conventionally attractive, are they average or not attractive at all?

Anye Vael @anyevael.bsky.social · 6d

Anye's story is all about overcoming grief & loss, moral right vs. law & institutional norms, balancing work and personal happiness, finding purpose, loneliness, and learning to embrace calm & closure after a lifetime of chaos.

#WoLQotD

time to go all out, writers. what themes do you explore in your WoL/OCs character?

for example; aurora tackles themes of femininity, motherhood, womanhood, (in some cases) religion. For me when i make decisions as small as gender it can completely alter how I write a character!!
