(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.⤵️
(Post an FFXIV meme made by you)

(This would be the most amazing thing)
they should make it so if the Odin FATE pops and the assembled party fails to defeat him before he uses Zantetsuken, everyone in the shroud zones dies

(This whole thread is why it sucks being a trans person trying to get medical fucking care)
Ya know one thing I love about MyChart? I get to see the clinical notes.

You know one thing I HATE about MyChart? I get to see the clinical notes.

So now I know that I'm way more fucked up than the doctor told me I was, and her attitude towards me boils down to the fact I'm trans (notes ⤵️

(Sha'dow has various relationships with the different members at different times:
Current Members:
Leveilleur Twins: Adopted Children. Sha'dow encourages them both in their magical and martial pursuits, their healing arts, and their education. A proper father figure, while at the same time, still ⤵️
Here’s another #wolqotd I’m curious on: How does your WoL or OC aligned with them spend time bonding with the scions, and if they simply don’t, is there a reason?

I’ll give you some on my WoL and my more aligned with a self insert oc (Seb the elezen weaver) though I won’t touch on every scion. +

Square, fix your damn game and make it that you can't get put in dungeons with blacklisted people

(Can't remember if it was 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4. Somehwere in that general area of Heavensward. Was during the HW patches, remember that much!)
#wolqotd During what patch did you start playing XIV?
January 21, 2026 at 4:34 AM
(Sha'dow is nearly always seen in the Adamantite Pauldroncoat of Fending (because they're nearly always busy being the WoL), but when they're not? (Yes I am reposting my comm'd art! It's SO GOOD) This is their go-to "go to town" outfit)
January 21, 2026 at 4:31 AM
(Anyone thinking my characters are self-inserts or Mary Sues. I mean, there are pieces of me in each of my characters, and the CLOSEST to a a Self-Insert is probably Sha'dow, but that's because there's a lot of Hawkeye Pierce in them, and there's a lot of Hawkeye in me.

As far as Mary Suedom goes,⤵️
Is there anything you're overprotective of with your oc? Something you hope other people never ask or point out?

For example I'm terrified of people saying René's head is too small. Multiple have said it, and I do his c+ next to refs of strong men and overlay photos to get it right. #wolqotd

(I present my latest fic! In which our unnamed hero finds themselves in an unfamiliar place, with no memories of who they are!)

(Grail is a druid, so was very accommodating, kind, and understanding.

Grail is also a chaos gremlin, and in my headcanon was like "yeah, nah, I gotchu bestie, lemme help burn it all down!")
"Won't even have to chew you before I feed you to my son."

What did your Tav/Durge do when faced with this angry mother?

I've been wanting to do a redraw of this gpose since I first saw it it's so beautiful 💖

(Sha'dow to Sphene)
January 20, 2026 at 2:31 PM
(Asked this earlier, said I'd answer when home, turns out I'm answering after home, and awake.

For Sha'dow, it's always been Lyse. Even when she was galivanting as Yda, they've just been two chaos gremlins, driving Papalymo absolutely batty.🥰 Now they love each other MADLY)
(so. No clue what's up. Just know I'm sick. #WoLQotD #WoLQuestion, who's your WoL/OCs BFF? Not who'd bail them out of prison, who'd be sitting next to them saying "man we fucked up but that sure was fun!"

If you post pics, please alt text so I can see them🥰

I'll answer when I'm out of the ER)
Okay. First test results populated in MyChart. WBC (across the board, every type, immature to full blown) are double to triple the TOP end of what they should be.

My body is fighting SOMETHING, possibly ITSELF.

I didn't really have any that show "being violently sick" 🤣 so here's a close one)

Am officially at the ER. Waiting on Triage, getting misgendered, listening to alarms go off and not getting answered...

What more could a gal ask for? 🤣
January 19, 2026 at 5:15 PM
(Same thing I do when I can't. Tools.)
Silly #wolqotd, but if your WoL found themself unable to open a jar, what would they do?
January 19, 2026 at 3:42 PM
(*Cracks neck, takes a deep breath* Valens Zeno's Hien Rowena Asahi Fandango that Garlean fucker that put torture collars on the Twins Laurentius THE ENTIRETY OF THE HEAVENSWARD AND THORDAN... *Am hour of names later* and last, but CERTAINLY not least, THE ENTIRE SYNDICATE and EVERY monetarist!⤵️
#WoLQotD does your OC hate any canon character?
January 19, 2026 at 2:38 PM
(Endzela is very much a "Cat, I'm a kitty cat
And I dance, dance, dance and I dance, dance, dance" kind of gal)
#wolqotd | #wolquestion

For those with Miqo’te/Hrothgar WoLs/OXs, are they a “don’t call me a cat, I’m a Miqo’te/Hrothgar” kinda cat? Or are “I’m a kitty :D” kinda cat?

For those with or who are partners to these WoLs/OCs, Do they use cat based pet names?
January 19, 2026 at 2:27 PM
(Hating myself for writing Sha'dow the way I did 🤣

I have chronic pain IRL, I don't want it even I get isekai'd, too!)
#wolqotd Yoshi-P has gone mad! We've been trapped in FFXIV as our WoLs, and if you die in the game, you die in real life, SAO style. The only way for us to be free is for someone to beat Endwalker. What are you doing as your WoL in this situation? Trying to save the world? Opening a store in Limsa?
January 19, 2026 at 2:25 PM
(Sha'dow brutally murdered a bunch of Brass Blades and Crystal Braves after the Bloody Banquet. I mean VICIOUSLY and without mercy.

Took the leader of the Heretics as a lover.

Busted Fordola out of prison (and then married her).

Cold Cocked Fouchedouche right in front of EVERYONE at the⤵️
#wolqotd So, the wol has the adoration of thousands, and the ear of powerful world leaders and powerful institutions.

Is there anything/anyone that your wol would utterly ruin and tarnish their reputation for?

An act of defiance so great that it might force the Scions/other allies to denounce?
January 19, 2026 at 2:20 PM
(Sha'dow loves kids, and kids love them. They foster AND adopt orphans regularly, and there's currently around 20 kids in the Weaver household. Sha'dow had a bad childhood and wants to make sure that doesn't happen for as many people as they can)
#wolqotd #wolquestion

I've seen a few questions about WoL kids on and off over the last few months, but what about kids in general? Does you're WoL/OC like kids? Do kids like them? How good are they at interacting with children?
January 19, 2026 at 2:00 PM
(Defo not canon, Sha'dow is 100% Drow, from Menzoberranzan)
#wolqotd
where does your WoL/OC/NPC come from?
is it a canon area or some village you made up for them?
January 19, 2026 at 1:57 PM
(Sha'dow actually IS a Drow Planeswalker, so I've dropped them in several already! 🥰)
#WoLQotD | #WoLQuestion

If your WoL/OC was transported to any world you could think of, where would drop them and how would they react?
