Gotta love when you make a decision regarding your character and then realize you have to commit. -ties a head band on- Excuse me while I design 20+ more brats for my Miqo'te and his clan!!

If you like what we do, please consider tipping. We have more plans and will try and make them real when able! We also hope this will help to give us a chance for future collabs!!

Any Retainers on all my characters are usually OC's related to that characters backstory. The only exceptions being NPCs that are love interests. The only one I'll mention fully is R'iku's. Each of his retainer is a woman in his family, his sister, mother and childhood friend.

Since i try ro follow the in game Canon as close as possible, R'iku has killed. He never intends for it, but it happens if there is no alternative. His first official kill was the member of Gaius' team you fight before Castrum and Prae.

That feeling when you redo some lore on your character, and teo new friends spawn. Since R'iku takes influence from Naruto, I decided to make him some other Doman friends. Naosu, the Miqo'te, is the daughter of a Doman based on Naruto. While Mamoru, the Hyur, is the son of a Doman based on Sasuke

R'iku would be the playful parent. He loves his kid, and is always pushing those that want hard in their training. But he also let's them be loose and do their own thing. Since he didn't have a dad himself, he sees himself as a playmate more than a father, until he gets older

For R'iku, he's equal parts confused and surprised. He's in a new place, but it's so different from where he had been right before going to the First

R'iku absolutely joins one of thw Grand Companies. He joins the Immortal Flames after meeting Raubahn and being inspired. Though he is an Adventurer first, he does work his way up the ranks, eventually becoming a Captain and leading his own squadron(despite not being able to read and write XD)

R'iku actually does have an unusual name if people think he is a full Sun Seeker. But since his mother is a Hyur, he has her Surname. And since Saku never really cared about the Tribe of his Father, she named him and his sister as Domans. He only has the apostrophe for simplicity

If R'iku was a Gym Leader or Champion specifically, he'd specialize in Fighting types. His team for this is different from what his trainer team would be, but a few Mons are the same

I have a few, but most include his family. This one though, is mostly focused on R'iku(left)

"Let's have a great match!"

#WOLQotD #OCQotD Lucky you. Developers have chosen your character to be in a fighting game. On the character select screen, what do they say if they’ve been selected? Seven words of less ✨💪🏾

Did some Higher Level Savage Content for Bri, and she now has two weapons from the Eden Raids that fit her style

We have a #wolqotd for you all! If your WoL fights differently from the in-game classes, is there a change to the LB3 they use?

R'iku the Miqo'te is actually almost 1 for 1 of the OC I used as his base. Aside from a slight name change, R'iku is a slightly less educated version of his source.

The lore behind R'iku being a Ninja main, is actually because of heritage. When he is rescued as a child, he asks his mother to train him anyway she could. As such, she taught him the basics of ninjutsu and had him learn the rest later. He does learn other classes, but Ninja was his go to

Okay! Serious question for all you Adventurers! If we started posting stories about R'iku's life and adventures, would you read them?

Honestly, marriage was never a thought in R'iku's head. Relationships were an enigma to him until he fell for his mates. But he does want to marry them, because it symbolizes a promise he makes to them to always return

R'iku has many different AU'S. He has at least one per mate, depending on what their relationship is like. But the main three for him alone have to do with his heritage. Each changes his personality slightly depending on where he started

For R'iku, he actually didn't realize it was love. At the end of the Arcanist Questline, K'lyhia left an impression on him. And when he sees her again, she showed up in his room dressed as a dancer from Costa. But he knew then, he loved her #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

So, it's the time of the year for the Moonfire Faire on Eorzea. As such, we're going to share a little comic we did during last year's event. It shows a skill issue for the jumping puzzle that was added during. The premise; K'lyhia was to meet R'iku at the Obstacle Course to relax. #FFXIVGPOSE

R'iku has a great relationship with his mother. -kicks away some backstory trauma- A GREAT relationship.

#wolqotd what's their relationship with their mother?

R'iku has one sibling by blood, his older sister R'ika. The two are twins, with R'ika having been born first. Even though R'iku is the adventurer, R'ika is a very protective older sister. Though je gets on her nerves, she loves her brother dearly. #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

R'iku can use a few different swords, and knows how to use them well

R'iku is out spending time with his mom, sister and mates. Since he can use a shadow clone technique, he's able to be in multiple places at once.

R'iku is Eorzean born, being born in Little Ala Mhigo in Thanalan. However, Tenebrae is actually a Keyblade Wielder. He crashed landed and ended up in Thanalan by chance

A bit of a #wolqotd, as I go through some lore and stories I've written; If your WoL is a Crafter, do they make anything for their partners? Like ornaments, jewelry, weaponry?

R'iku is definitely a slacker, with his only motivation for going to school being his club. Though depending on things go, his other reason to go would be his "study sessions"

Sometimes it's nice to collaborate with others, or bounce ideas with them. Because one that still makes me laugh and smile is a mini-AU within mine and @bestcatdad.bsky.social's lore for our characters. #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER #AU

If R'iku, as he currently is, was an NPC, he'd have a questline around Little Ala Mhigo and the Amalj'aa territory. He would also show up as part of the Scions, helping with the Ifrit stuff

I always think too much when posing, but here are some that were made intentionally to be funny XD #gposers

Fun Fact, Tenebrae is a cosplay the Player, Knightmare, had made. And Inanis, the Elezen, was also done as a cosplay. As such, each of the Shadowlight Siblings are Black, just like their owner

#wolqotd It's Juneteenth. LET ME SEE YOUR BLACK WOL/OC. I SAID YOUR *BLACK WOL/OC*!!!!!

👉👈 interaction bait what would you do with Mia?

It's a Day for Father's here for the Troupe. And as such, we thought we highlight some of our own. R'iku Takino is a father to currently 9 children in our future timeline. Tenebrae Shadowlight is a father to currently 4 wonderful children of his own #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

R'iku never actually meets his father growing up. However, he does get "adopted" by @bestcatdad.bsky.social's Miqo'te, Setzer, and sees the kind of man he is. Later down the line, R'iku father's (currently) 9 children with his wives, and he loves them all dearly.

Hello Adventurers!! Since Summer is fast approaching, I think it's time we share a shoot we've been holding onto for well over a year. And that's the Perks of having a private island! R'iku's entire poly and his family join him in the sanctuary for some summer fun!! #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

It's Friday! Which is the end of a long week! And today, I thought we'd look into the Eorzean Academy #AU. It's one for R'iku and K'lyhia, where R'iku is getting tutored by K'lyhia so he can join a club. And the two end up falling in love #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

Since it's FemRa Friday, I thought I would highlight R'iku's own Au'ra mate, Ogul. Though the last to join, she gets just as much love as the others. And she's such a cutie!! #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

R'iku does like being scratched behind the ears. He actually relaxes when he receives them, and purrs loudly. However, only those he really trusts can get close enough to even touch him like that.

Hello Adventurers! Here at the ShadowCat Troupe, we honor mother's of all ages to this Mother's Day!! R'iku's own mother is the matriarch of his Clan, and a caring mother to her twins. #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER

Since we are big Star Wras nerds, MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU!!! Some time ago, some friends were putting together an AU. For use here, R'iku would be a Rebel pilot, while Tene was a Gray Code Jedi and Master to Alisaie. #FFXIV #FFXIVGPOSE #GPOSE #GPOSER #AU

If R'iku is out traveling, he'll sleep in whatever he has on for ease of combat. When he is home and relaxing, he'll fall asleep in a pair of shorts

-pulls out a list- Honestly, R'iku having 9 mates is already an interesting dynamic. But there are quite a few NPCs I've considered, including a certain DT NPC. But even with different partners, the dynamic would change much with how he is with his current partners

R'iku is a very active student, but he isn't very studious. So when he is in school and in tutoring, he'll sleep to try and recover energy #ffxivacademy #GPOSE

Since I only have 3 slots reserved, I'm still open for this and I need to reach 180 usd for this month's housing rent (4 days left). Pls help me spread this 🙏

Since I haven't done this here, let's do a 1 Like, 1 Answer. We'll start with R'iku and then see how we do. If the question can include a gpose, I will add one
