Some stray thoughts on warder training in my lore: Loi'ven's warder training lasts a decade and it is customary for a newly appointed warder taking on their own first kit to train to have one chosen for them by their former teacher. #OC:loiven ⤵️

Day 16 of #FebHyurary : Dungeon —"Tchh, that's a nasty one... Stay still, and we might yet go unnoticed" #ffxiv #gposers

Highly relevant Loi'ven-lore bookmarks. #OC:loiven

thinking about Loi'ven growing out their hair again as they get older 😌 #OC:loiven

It doesn't happen a lot but it does look quite pretty on them. Hail the snail. #OC:loiven

Time to rename 100+ poses and add preview images and tags. Pray for me please.

i'm thinking about you and your hands，your voice，and how it's exactly the voice of everything warm.

Day 8 of #FebHyurary : Mount —On the Prowl #ffxiv #gposers

Sorry for the spam, I'm done now. Just had to add some tags 😶

Loi'ven's chocobo is called Plantbaby in Common and Spíra (sprout) in Vieran. The name Plantbaby is a result of Loi'ven forgetting the word 'sprout' in Common so they tried to paraphrase. Not wanting to use her Vieran name around others, they simply started calling her Plantbaby. #OC:loiven

Wet earth, mossy and 'green' with a hint of lavender and sage, oiled leather. Sometimes, the stench of blood adds another, deeper layer to their usually more comforting and calming scent. #OC:loiven

Something I like a lot about starting over on Bsky is that I feel better about commenting on posts. Anxiety and other mental health things are still kicking my butt but at least I try and succeed sometimes.

i am made of bullets; shrapnel. you are solar flares and soft lips——better creatures could love you， i know. but now they'll have to get through me.

Decided to make a Hyur lady to replay ARR (and maybe beyond that). I love Middies so much, man.

Day 4: The Sunbreeze Festival #FebHyurary #gposers #ffxiv

Day 3: Tank Bloodfest - #gposers | #FebHyurary | #blueeyedmercenary | #midlander

Towards the middle of 6.1 and I managed to catch up before the release of 6.2. I wish I didn't rush through the story like I did because I barely remember anything 😶

Updated my pinned post because I am tired of people using exclusively 'he' for Loi'ven when I have only ever used 'they' in my posts about them. I know they look masc and maybe it's my own fault for using the maleviera tag in the past but I've honestly had it. Masc looking non-binary people exist.

LRP: look at them...so tired and fed up. 🥺

Random reminder: if you want to see my gposes in their non-crunchy version, I upload the lore relevant ones on my carrd too! lrendan.crd.co#gallery

17 OCs — none of them WoL. They're all more or less loosely connected and have their own role in @thefloortanker.bsky.social's and my RP. We enable each other and it's terrible. 🖤 Loi'ven will forever remain my main OC and the focus of this account though.

Currently thinking about the fall of Dalamud and how people outside of Aldenard would have perceived the changes. Imagine simply vibing with two moons, suddenly one of them turns red and then, one day, it is gone. Time to invent some batshit crazy stories to explain the events.

First rule: keep your bowstring taut. #WanderingHunter | #OC:loiven

Making tilt camera-macros has made my gaming experience so much better. 0 tilt is best to look at my silly hare and 80 tilt is best for actual fighting gameplay imo. (can you tell I love making macros)

Who am I to refuse the old gods? #OC:loiven

How dare they look so cute? 😔

Sometimes, the only thing that gets me out of bed is the thought of coffee and seeing Loi’ven on my screen. Today is such a day.

🍃⚔️🏹🐇 #OC:loiven

Loi'ven's story generally isn't tied to events in the MSQ nor do they interact with the Scions. There are however a few situations where Loi'ven's story and canon meet. • They fight with the Bozjan Resistance • The Battle at Ghimlyt Dark • Battling blasphemies in the Shroud #OC:loiven ⤵️

Pass it on!!! It's pfp day where you post your pfp. Everyone look at the picture you've seen 9,932 times!!! One of my favorite shots from last year 🍎

The fact that we can teleport directly to Phantom Village but not back is such a ??? decision (and adding that invisible wall that keeps you from jumping down towards the ship too).

I have been feeling a certain way about bodies in general and in the modding space lately, so I made a meme to express that

Loi'ven's only 'canon' XIV job is GNB, which they trained hard to master during their time with the Bozjan Resistance. Otherwise they use a bow and two swords usually. I sometimes play GNB in roulettes, BRD in PvP exclusively and VPR basically...never. I'm a healer main through and through.

They met in a prison cell, and Loi'ven was angry that they had to share the cell with Ren. #OC:loiven | #HallowedHunt

Coffee beans, dried meats, a ton of chocobo and wolf treats, and a basket of green apples. The pantry is locked with several locks because Plantbaby has broken into the pantry before to eat everything in sight. #OC:loiven

Loi'ven is extremely stand-offish, most people would consider them rude. They just like to stick to themselves and mind their own business. If someone wants to talk to them, they better have a job offer ready. #OC:loiven

Based on the timeline I created for Loi'ven I went to look at some maps (sucks that we still don't know where some locations are but the ones depicted make sense to me) to document their journey from their home in Golmore to Gridania — a long journey that did not begin voluntarily. #OC:loiven
