#anyway this was promted cause i was feeling mid and thought about having a dragoon who ended up wheelchair bound

[herequeerexitentialfear]

not enough spoons to explain adherant to ffxiv lore

but dragoon jump powers+ wheelchair = crazy ass shit.

its just always arm day not always leg day in terms of aether powering ur muscles

just pretend for a sec that putting that amount of force into one push would just propel you fast and not go horribly wrong, but that could be cool as fuck!

if you are in any cutscene w emo mc dragon issues[estinian] u know dragoon jumps can be insane, so if you say used that power with a wheelchair?

it would be hard in of terms combat with probably needing some modifications in order to work around the fact for mobility you kinda need two hands to steer and most weapons need at least one hand.

BUT still: i cant remember it saying anywhere that its a dragoon only skill, just that they were the only group that decided to go ham on leg day as oppose to spellcasting or archery when faced with big fuckoff flying lizards so its entirely possible that you could just spend a few years training, get a good wheelchair and boom. your faster than all most all modes of transport. and even if you cant do it withought dragoon training gimme a job crystal and a spear and ill kill all the dragons i want to be able to pop a wheelie all the way from dragons head to the astralogim observatorim or whatever

anyway tldr: in mad fantasy worlds you can almost always have a lore adherent way to be disabled and still kick ass. or at least have quality of life improvements without the whole 'we have healing magic so no disablitys exist exept for the occasional amputation'

squenix i still hate you but ff14s a banger and i will never again complain about queue times if i can watch dudebros have a meltdown over the wol being able to use a wheelchair and still, u know, kick ass and be the warrior of light.

its an mmo. you can play as furry bait [twink], bunny person, or furry bait [bear] among others i think we can have a goddamn wheelchair [and if u pull a 'it affects your charecters combat negatively becuase realism' im pulling a glock out of my ass and shooting you. its fantasy. ive already thought for five minuits and made some stuff work, and u can always dump new lore]

[prosthetics and other adaptive devices would be cool to. you have all the garlean tec and also the ironworks they can make a cool prosthetic for an arm [diff attachements for diff weapons/tools].look if u can be blind but not because u can see through aether currents you can probably also have magic hearing aids. the list goes on]

#note: not delusional enough to think this would ever happen its just a cool idea and also a fuck u to ppl who would say it would break lore #this is not coherent in any way #anyway this was promted cause i was feeling mid and thought about having a dragoon who ended up wheelchair bound #and started grinning cause it could actually work in lore ish #then spent god knows how long stimming like crazy cause man i want to be able to kick ass in a wheelchair by throwing myself around the #combat area like a human[ish] bouncy ball #fuking hades dashing outa all the aoes #i mean hell new class where you wheelchair is you weapon #cover it with spikes and have a quest-line about accepting who you are and how your still cool and valubale #[ofc it implies ur value is linked to your combat prowess but thats not unusually ableist that just normal wol shit] #ofc have it so you can be in a wheelchair outside of that class as well #but look: if u think about it so many ideas appare!! #oh wait why would a games company evr think about diabled people in an incluisive way #thebirdspeaks
