WoL!Vinalo absolutely *despised* Zenos. To them, he was a hedonistic monster who nearly brought everything Vinalo loved to ruin. They only accepted his help against the Endsinger because they knew all of creation was riding on overcoming this grand despair. Vinalo felt zero kinship with the man.

Perhaps this might be dodging the question, but... I don't. Vinalo has never taken anything for their gender. It's something that might only work because they're a lalafell, but them not being a man or a woman is just something they know to be true, and that's that.

Vinalo has a smattering of small scars on the back of their legs, butt, and the small of their back. They took a spill down a hillside in pre-Calamity Coerthas, and despite not yet skilled enough to do it properly, they stubbornly tried to heal it all themself.

Gods, there's a lot I could list here. But the one that comes to mind is "On High," the day theme for The Peaks. The zone itself always has struck me as underappreciated, but I like it. Best damn sunset lighting in the game, too.

Though I've functionally retired the look, there's still something charming about the Vinalo Classic that I used through almost the entire ShB era and well into EW. It was their primary outfit in RP land for a long time, too.

It's pretty direct: Vinalo Mabunalo. Despite having an entire gender journey, they decided to keep their given masculine name and make it their own. They personally tend to only use the first part of their name when talking to anyone, unless it's for full identification purposes.

Gonna be honest, I was grabbed immediately by the character creation music, "Prelude ~ Discovery." I'd already been a FF fan for years, and this Prelude just hit me right in the heart. Best version of the theme, as far as I'm concerned.

Vinalo stands at an unremarkable 2'11.5". It's a perfectly average height for a lalafell, so they don't think too much on it except when a place has zero accommodation for lalafell in general. They *do* have to go up on their toes to kiss their spouse Misha, but they certainly don't mind that.

Thanks to everyone who followed along with #lalapril this year! I know I slipped a few times with late uploads, but I'm glad I managed to get something for every day. Also, it looks like the most popular one was Day 3, with Fufucha guest-starring. And I must say, she is pretty great!

Reposting this shot from last year to show how ARR zones can still shine. There's a special charm in these older areas.

This shot was inspired by a Discord prompt years ago, with the theme "Open Eyes." It had to fit within the character limit of a single Discord message, hence how short it is. A tragic, yet important part of their journey as a healer. archiveofourown.org/works/83651241
