What do they think of Garlean technology and their use of ceruleum?

Eis doesn't fully understand it, but he thinks a lot of it is really cool! Not always used for a good purpose (see: war machines), but still, pretty cool!

I think he would especially develop an appreciation for it after spending some time in Garlemald and seeing first-hand all the ways its technology was made to help its people. He never subscribed to the idea that all of Garlemald was bad and violent, and he's always had a passing interest in learning more about the tech there. Smarts are not his forte, but he still likes to know how things work! If only so he can better rig, upgrade, and/or break things!

Also, you can probably make some sick-ass tunes with Garlean tech, which is always a plus for him.

1. What do they do to pass time during long journeys? (caravans, chocobo rides, etc.) 🤗

Eis's go-to for passing time is music. Whether it's singing, strumming his lute, or drumming on the side of a carriage, he can always come up with a tune.

If he's in comfortable company, he also makes a habit of being a nuisance in whatever way he can. What better way to spice things up on a long journey than driving your friend up a wall?

6. Does Nagisa like bard performances? What's her favorite type of show?

It’s actually one of her (and mine) favorite things about going to super crowded places like Limsa! She enjoys seeing full bands play and will often stay and dance with strangers. Any live performers, any time, she’s down to watch it!

Eis Klein

B A S I C S

NAME: Eis Klein

NICKNAMES: he doesn't have many nicknames because his name is already short and sweet, but his mom often calls him by pet names (including but not limited to: my love, darling, little flower, my sunlight). if you're not his mom and you call him any of these, he will probably punch you.

HAIR: pastel blue with navy blue highlights, cut similar to the Styled for Hire hairstyle. he likes to braid sections of his hair and accessorize with flowers, beads, etc.

EYES: candy pink. unlike Seekers and Keepers, his pupils are not restricted and naturally dilate with different light levels.

TATTOOS/SCARS: he has a semicolon tattoo on his left wrist, blue feathered wings on his back, and a few other small tattoos (he has a Lot and boy do I not wanna type all of them out-). he has a prominent X-shaped scar on his left cheek and numerous other scars all over his body, especially his back, torso, and legs. part of their tail is missing, and it's kinked downward near the end.

F A M I L Y

SIBLINGS: none

GRANDPARENTS: unknown/deceased

IN-LAWS AND OTHER: Revna (cousin - found family/not blood related)

S K I L L S

T R A I T S

MOST POSITIVE TRAIT: his unyielding determination, even in the face of seemingly impossible odds.

DRINKS: hot cocoa, herbal teas (especially fruit-based teas)

O T H E R   D E T A I L S

SMOKES?: no.

DRINKS?: socially on occasion. he used to be a bit of an alcoholic, so he only drinks around friends anymore and only if he feels safe enough (or desperate enough).

DRUGS?: they'll try just about anything once. but they don't do anything regularly aside from the occasional weed or nip.

MOUNT ISSUANCE: he has a few mounts he can call upon depending on the situation. his chocobo Kwehchi goes with him to towns and on lowkey adventures, but she isn't very well-suited to battle or harsh environments. on more risky adventures, he has his war panther Saber and, if need be, the Regalia replica.

BEEN ARRESTED?: a few times when he was young, though not nearly as many times as he should've been. he's a slippery little bitch.

I wasn't tagged, I yoinked this. therefore I will not be tagging specific people. but I will tag YOU, viewer. yoink this for yourself (if you want to).

FFXIV ask meme

A short list to think about our characters' relationship with the world around them.

What do they do to pass time during long journeys? (caravans, chocobo rides, etc.)

How good are they at reading a map? How good is their sense of direction?

Are they well informed about the world around them? How do they get their news?

What do they think of the current government of their home? For those who don't have a home anymore, do they have a preferred political system? (monarchy, republic, etc.)

Does the smell of chocobos bother them?

Do they like bard performances? What's their favorite type of shows?

What do they think of Garlean technology and their use of ceruleum?

What do they think of the political power of the WoL? (Alternatively, for WoLs: do they fear being backstabbed eventually by the city-state leaders should they deem the WoL too inconvenient/threatening?)

Do they repair their clothes and furniture themselves?

What advice would they give to people seeking to visit their homeland?

As a courtesy, please send something to the person you're reblogging this from.

"is this too cliche?" who cares? bro, write what you have fun writing. stuff your manuscript full of your favourite tropes. the same themes you love. all inspired by things you grew up with. do it all. go off. load. it. up. be freeeee

Maybe this is the wrong platform to pose this question given the average tumblr user but

Is it just me or did our generation (those of is who are currently 20-30 ish) just not get the opportunity to be young in the 'standard' sense?

Like, everyone I talk to who's over 40 has all their wild stories about their teens and 20s, being young and dumb, and then I talk to my friends and coworkers and classmates, and we just... dont.
