Updated the ref sheets and lore card!

Race (Clan): Lalafell (Plainsfolk)
Gender: Female Age: 41
Epithets: The Finest Pupil’s Ally | Warrior of Light

Having been raised in Limsa Lominsa, her young adult life was spent bounding between studying magicks in the halls of the Arcanists' Guild and working as a mercenary aboard merchant vessels. At the age of twenty and two she set off on a short lived life of adventure before she found herself in the Twelveswood. Cocky and overconfident, she had bit off more than she could chew against the hoard of Ixali. Had it not been for a troop of Twin Adders, she would have met her end then and there. Soon after this encounter she joined up with the Twin Adders and quickly rose through their ranks over the next couple of years. As a lieutenant she was called to lead a troop at the Battle of Carteneau and there she bore witness to the Seventh Umbral Calamity first hand.
The days following the calamity during a mission to recover wounded from the ruins of Carteneau she received the first sign of Hydaelyn's Blessing; a nightmarish and nigh incomprehensible prophetic vision. So rattled was she by the past week, she stepped down from the Twin Adders and set out to be an adventurer once more. This time she took up the mantle of the onion to reminder her of simpler more nostalgic times.
Later she found herself bequeathed the title of Warrior of Light, and much of the weight of the world thrust upon her shoulders. Originally driven by a desire for her name to be known in folklore, but since becoming the Warrior of Light, she has received all that she desired and woefully far more. Now she carries on for those still here, and for those she has lost—primarily the latter. Driven by grief, she seeks to make a departed lover proud. To this day she wears his old monocle, desperate to feel he remains with her in some small way.
Ever nostalgic, her favorite food is one her mother made her frequently as a child: stuffed artichoke and a glass of orange juice.

A lot of songs about grief. Wonder why.

Also a lot of poets of the fall for no real reason. Their sound just sorta fits Uaruru to me. idk why.
I consider Dreaming Wide Awake to be her theme song

Sadly the artist has no social media to tag. They are named Doobe on discord tho. Thats how they said they wanted me to credit them.
I commissioned them to draw Uaruru before, will post those after a while

The thought that someone liked my oc and ship so much they felt compelled to doodle it touches my heart

the thing about writing is that it's very hard unless you have to leave the house in 15 minutes or perhaps go to bed

@ardynunknown.bsky.social asked me this on stream and it stumped me for a while and I'm still not convinced about my one so I'll ask you lot.

Does your WoL have an irrational fear?

Some aren't actually what I worse during that expansion, but more what I'd think she would have worn.

Thank you darling!
...He's very wary of picking up Lalas though. From that one formative experience as a fresh adventurer 😂

which let her vent the excess light in a controlled manner. She can utilize this to great effect, but it takes a terrible toll on her body.

I imagine when she limit breaks this is what she's doing.

The remaining bit of corrupted light inside her isnt a danger btw, if she dies it'll dissipate
3/3

horrific night terrors involving her transforming into a warden at least once a week.

In combat sometimes she needs to vent the sliver of lightwarden that remains in her soul. Its painful, but shes learned to work with it and use it to her benefit. She sprouts vestigial wings of light

During shb; she was in incredible agony, vomiting up light corrupted bile, struggling to stand, having strange visions. It was so sucks for her dude fr

Published every in-character journal and short story I wrote while playing the MSQ in one place.

It doesn't work always.
Haurchefant was my OCs best buddy and then he uh
So I needed someone else and looked at Papalymo and was like "oh he and my oc would be a cute couple" and started planning how she'd confess her love and all the dates they'd go on and then Papalymo went and uh he uh well uh 🙃

So stupid when a piece of fiction impacts your identity. Like ok bitcj. It worked. Now what.
