Figured I should start a thread here for my fics!
First but not least: early days wolmeric where I really worked out the foundation of Fraeswys as a character; spoilers through 3.4.

Fraeswys died, her soul entirely ready and beginning to return, but for her Inner Beast breaking free and insisting she keep on.
Given that, she recovered pretty quick. Only a few weeks of mostly being in bed, some more of being forced to take a break, and she was ready for more adventure.

#wolqotd was your wol injured or left scarred after the final fight in edw? How has that impacted them into dawntrail?

Zidane - happy-go-lucky thief/pirate, swept from their crew and into grander adventures after disaster struck... which makes Aymeric, of course, her Princess Garnet stuck in his castle, which I will never stop enjoying.

In terms of personality, backstory, etc, which Final Fantasy protagonist is your WoL/OC most similar to?

Fraeswys is probably at least a little protected by others sometimes struggling with Sea Wolf names, but Limsa Lominsa definitely has a surge. She'd mostly be honored. Proud.
(A Dotharl does get her name... after she dies, so no reaction to that one.)

It never occurred to me that commonfolk from the Source and First will possibly start naming their children after Qaraar.
And now I must ask everyone, how would your wol react to probable boom of babies in the coming years post EW bearing your ocs name.

#RoevemberXIV Day 30: Haven
Guiding an "official diplomatic voyage" proved the perfect excuse for Fraeswys to drag Aymeric out of Ishgard and take an actual vacation for once in their lives.

A younger Fraeswys with her pirate dads: Estribord Portelaine, ship Navigator and Medic, and the more pragmatic; Captain Blaz "the Behemoth", strong idealist, has terrified enemies right out of battle, and a big softy. Robin Hood types all.

Per sailing superstition, Fraeswys prayed to the Navigator for everyone to return safely before setting out on journeys.
They haven't always. Which Fraeswys could accept when she thought the Twelve must've also been false.
That her prayers WERE actually heard AND YET... left her really angry. (1/2)

#wolqotd does your wol/oc have beef with any of the twelve? Why? Did they say as much when they met them if they did MotR?

#RoevemberXIV Day 27: Idle
One of my go-to idle emotes is /squats, because I did squadrons specifically to earn it dangit, there used to be a whole crowd in Coeurl Limsa doing them, Fraeswys canonically barely sits still and trains all the time, and probably some Zack Fair influence.

#RoevemberXIV Day 24: Awaken
The Steppe brought out Fraeswys's Inner Beast, which terrified her at first when she'd gone to such lengths to control it. (Mostly it just wanted to keep her alive; it could hardly keep fighting so many powerful enemies otherwise.)

Poseidon (Azem)'s two guises.
Fraeswys, proud hero, refuses Azem's legacy as much as she can, charting her own if not entirely different course.
Decades on: a Dotharl youth given an impossible name to live up to abandons the Steppe to find *his* own path.

Fraeswys doesn't like to think about it. She doesn't want to know any more about Azem than she has to; she NEEDS to be her own person. (And needs a strong sense of self to keep all her powers in control.)
She'll accept she was granted power and therefore responsibility from it, but that's it.
