#haven't played drk in ages!

[ammyamarant]

So I have two Warrior of Lights that I have extensive headcanons for currently. I wrote a lot so a cut.

The first is Amarant Kalathi. A Xaela Au Ra, formally known as Altani Kha, who had the Echo from a young age, and fled the Steppe because she had a horrible vision and wanted to protect her family. She knew she had to change her name when she arrived in Limsa Lominsa, and just kind of put down the first flower she saw (an amaranth) and a random collection of syllables for a last name. I have come up with a lot for her (she's a middle child with three brothers and a sister, she's incredibly mischievous, when a certain character [redacted since I have a few people who haven't played who said they're interested] died she freaked out that she'd lose more people she loved without telling them and proceeded to fuck most of the adult Scions before she was forced to realize that isn't healthy, she is a smn main, she picked up ast briefly in Ishgard and proceeded to put it down when [redacted] died and picked up drk so she couldn't fail to protect anyone anymore, is a little too accepting of things in her head like Bahamut or Fray) and I love her.

(oh and Amarant's unsundered self is Bia and Bia is fucked up. She literally has the Will of the Universe in her head and draws upon that for her magic. Think Lina Inverse but instead of only calling upon the Lord of Nightmares for the Giga Slave, she does it for every single spell.)

(also the Will of the Universe likes boba)

The other is Tsukiyomi Inugami. So this one takes some explaining. I made her because I think I'm funny, and thought making a Shadow Hearts: Covenant reference would be funny. She was originally a reference to Kurando's first fusion, a Viera as pale as I could make her so she could resemble the moon. And yes I misspelled Tsukuyomi I did not double check my spelling when I made her. I could pay for the rename but eh. I'm now officially baking into her lore that she misspelled her own name just in case so she could distance herself from the primal. Anyway.

Tsuki is actually the primal Tsukuyomi. Like, literally, she's the primal that Yotsuyu summoned. After the fight, Kurando (yes I'm keeping the references) saw the mirror and pocketed it. From there, Tsukuyomi was constantly trying to get him to summon her, and he resisted. Throughout the last few patches of Stormblood, she came to admire him greatly. He was strong, kind, helpful, and loved his friends. But at the Ghimlyt Dark, before Estinien could show up, he was fatally wounded. In his last moment, she begged him to summon her, to turn into her. He did summon her, but to make a pact. To find and protect Alisaie. To become the Warrior of Light in his stead. To save the world, not to suck it dry of aether. She agreed. To prevent any confusion she took his name and pretended she had just drank a Fantasia and turned from a male Hyur into a female Viera.

If you're getting "trans allegory" vibes so far oh boy I'm not done yet.

So yeah, she literally was born right before Shadowbringers. And Estinien knows she's a primal, but before he could even attempt to kill her, she was taken away by troops that came to investigate and thought she was a civilian. She went through all of Shadowbringers and Endwalker, realizing the memories she has of what Kurando went through actually pales in comparison to it actually happening. At the end of 6.0 (after everything that happened like killing primals and the entire You're Not Alone quest), she finally came clean. She admitted she's a primal to her friends, but she's starting to realize... she's okay with a mortal body. She's okay with being a Viera, and she wants to live her life as herself. And she took on the name Tsukiyomi Inugami, to reflect who she was (with a now canon misspelling) and the Warrior of Light she came to love as hers. She wants to live as herself now, and not as the person they thought she should be.

I told you there'd be more trans allegory.

So those two are the ones I have the most headcanons about. I know I wrote more about Tsuki than Amarant, but I promise, Amarant has a LOT of lore behind her too.

As a note, the reason I won't write for DRV3, DRAE, DRG and DRK Vol.1 is not that I have any issue with any of them - it's that I haven't played or read them in way too long and as good as my memory is, still, a lot goes missing.

This is why I'm trying to slowly replay the entire series. My initial goal was DRAE, but I still felt the need to replay DR1 and SDR2 first, which is taking me ages.

(Basically, if it's in italics, it's probably a situational circumstance based on her having the DRK soul crystal on and using that more aggressive, offensive, close-range fighting style rather than her ranged, defensive one.)

Tagging - well, they tagged a lot of folks back then, and I don't really know who to tag that didn't do it all back then. If you haven't, do it and tag me back!

"Our study finds that the mere presence of social media icons on a web page where we shop appears to cause us to feel as if our purchases are being watched by our social network, and we adjust our buying decisions accordingly," said Claudia Townsend, an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Miami School of Business Administration who conducted the research with Empirica's David Neal. When the product was one for which public consumption is desirable, like the cologne, the presence of the Facebook and Twitter icons made people 25% more likely to purchase. But when the product was more private in nature, like a product for acne treatment, the icons suppressed purchase intentions, also by 25%..
