I really wish there was an explorer mode or unsynced option for the PVP maps. Some of those areas would make really fun GPose spots.

I feel like I mull over redesigning Arden as a woman like once a week.

“Oh dear, how very odd for a ‘Warrior of Light’ to radiate such darkness. What would your predecessor think if she saw you now?”

Lore context: When Arden's family was killed in the calamity, he was introduced to the refuges at Little Ala Mhigo by his older half-sister, Freja. Ilberd, a friend of his father's, mentored him and taught him to fight with a sword in the wake of Arden losing his ability to manipulate aether. (1/11)

Have you ever raided with me and thought, "Wow, I sure wish I could have randomly placed raid callouts when I'm not raiding," then folks I have made the video you've been looking for!

// to bring a little positive vibes to this.
It also gives you guys time to write more about your OCs.
To bring out more of their expressions in screenshots.
I have enjoyed seeing it as of late. So keep up the great work in that regard.
Remember to play other games. 🤍

The content drought is real and it’s not because there isn’t anything to do in the game, it’s because unless you enjoy raiding / crafting, there is nothing fun to do in the game. This isn’t unique to DT, it’s exacerbated by it because DT was not universally well received, so the games flaws show.

Someone's post got me curious so, #wolqotd : What is your WoL/OC's face lore? That scar, or that bruise, or that tattoo. The pair of odd eyes, or those unique pupils. That missing tooth, that missing eye or even just specific makeup. Anything you would consider "face lore". Give me the goods! 📝

I think this video is easily the work I’m most proud of (so far!)
I really loved getting to mix the different versions of Closer in the Distance for it, along with editing the voice lines and visuals.
It was so much fun and I absolutely love how it turned out.

One day I really want to either commission or make my own Azem mask to mod onto the ancient robes I think.

I’m so happy that I caught this wolqotd. This is going to be a long one.
Arden was a prodigy thaumaturge in his youth, but lost his ability to manipulate aether. This was seemingly caused by an injury he sustained during the calamity, causing his aetheric “soul” to be less dense than normal. 🧵

I have a #wolqotd for y'all:
How is your WoL/OC at manipulating aether? Are they an accomplished spellcaster or do they prefer brute strength/dexterity? Or do they utilize dynamis instead?

I typically write my characters for stories rather than RP.
That being said, Arden is the Warrior of Light, but wasn't the original (or only) holder of the title.
Freja Cordwyk, an Ala Mhigan who took him and his sister in after their parents passed, was the Warrior of Light from pre-ARR. (1/3)

Decided to re-visit a project that I was working on before the Dawntrail but never finished. I'm going to redo the entire thing because I have a few different ideas for it, but I thought I'd share this old (very) WIP video from the original idea.
