jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 02/10/2026##ffxiv It is hot af at work and I am miserable. Tell me something cool about your WoL! Anything! No matter how small or silly. Something that you enjoy about your WoL. Lay it on me. (No NSFW please, tho.) 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 02/10/2026On patrol in Western Coerthas. He got caught in the cataclysmic blizzard spawned by the aetheric shift, cut off completely from his unit, and blindly made his way south towards Mor Dhona. By the time him and his 'bo had recovered, the gates were closed and he was cut off from everything. 011
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Jon's former Ishgardian light cav turned adventurer. He's used to life on the road in the shittiest conditions around. Doesn't mean he likes it, though. He'd much rather have an actual room with an actual bed and meals that he doesn't have to leave soaking in coffee for hours and pick bugs out of. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 25/09/2026#WoLqotd Does your WoL/OC smoke? And if so, what? Packs of black market Garlean unfiltereds? Limsan cigars liberated from parts unknown (and fiercely denied)? Homemade clay pipes packed with home grown herbs? Or maybe something a little stronger from Yanxia or Gridania? 1450
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Jon has a Fat Cat named Dingus. She's fluffy and soft and an absolute angel. But there is nothing between those ears but dryer lint. 030
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 21/09/2026"Hi. My name is Jonault and I'd like to talk about growing up as the son of a prostitute and having my entire society know it as soon as they hear my name. And I brought sour gummy bears." 020
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 20/09/2026He fights because they won't validate his chocobo parking without doing so. 032
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Purely functional. He's an elezen and his primary glam has a big hat, because sunburn on your ears sucks so very, very much. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Jon started as a very generic viera with a name i got from mashing the name generator. Zero backstory, zero vibes, I did not click with her at all. Then somewhere between late Heavensward and early Stormblood, I used a fantasia, bought a name change and now my WoL is someone I am much happier with. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 14/09/2026He thought they had a good relationship, until he wanted to enlist to ease some of the financial burden on her. That was the ugliest fight he's ever been in, and he enlisted despite her protests. It was the last time he saw her alive. (She actually IS still alive, but both think the other isn't.) 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Ishgard. He's got a house there that only a handful of people know about, and its his place to fall back to when things get to be too much. (The people who know where Jon lives? Edmont, Tataru, and his staff. That's it.) 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Yes. Greystone growing up in Ishgard. For a while he'd start swinging at anyone that tried giving him a hard time. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Jon's a Greystone, so he's essentially an only child. He thinks there's at least one half-sibling out there, but he's in no hurry to find them. He tries not to think about them, he's got too much other stuff to worry about, but he does vaguely resent them. Too much time being a 'have not' not to. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 11/09/2026"Is it Diplomatic Incident time? I think it's Diplomatic Incident time." 011
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Judging by the amount of fishing bait in his bag? No. Can he get his damn chocobo to stop trying to eat them because they're so colorful and surely they have to be delicious, right? Also no. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 05/09/2026When Haurcefant fell, the *polite* version is what happened in game. What really happened is that Jon wouldn't leave. He was willing to fight everyone from the Inquisitiors to Aymeric, in his refusal to leave Haurcefant. His death was Jon's fault and Jon would be damned if he abandoned him. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 04/09/2026The Ascian rejoinings brought death and destruction to whole worlds full of living people and vibrant cultures. Fuck 'em. Was it tragic that it happened? Yes, absolutely. Does it justify anything? Absolutely the fuck not. There's a safe way to let the rejoinings happen. We just need to find it. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Fishing. And swearing up a storm as he did so. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Jon would have been a freelance adventurer in Gridania, and gotten himself in enough trouble that he would have been 'politely' encouraged to leave. And then he would have headed home, closed gates or no. And would have ended up as one of the revolutionaries storming the Vault to liberate Aymeric. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Mildly embarrassed, mostly put of a desire to not get recognized and asked what "really happened". 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Jon would have been a freelance adventurer in Gridania, headhunted into the Crystal Braves (either that or go to jail for picking fights with the Wailers), and either sidelined or killed during the leadup to the Banquet. Gridania can burn for all Jon cares, but their actions put ISHGARD at stake. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Jon was doing a bit of adventuring work while he was waiting for his chocobo to clear quarantine, and debating between heading back to Ishgard, even if the gates were closed, and trying to stick it out in this racist af city. (Gridania hits different if you're a duskwight.) 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 30/08/2026That he fell for Haurcefant as hard as Haurce fell for him, and that Jon never got to tell him. "After we clear our names. After the War. After we rescued Aymeric from his own idealistic nature." Always an 'after'. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 28/08/2026When I started, it wasn't anything super deep. I wanted 'tall' but not 'big', so roe were right out. I looked at male au ra, but the Crash Bandicoot run was a deal breaker. Which left me with Elezen. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Shouldn't do it. On the bad days, does it anyway. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 18/08/2026First: Apologize for kicking Alphinaud in the face on reflex to get him away, in case Zenos tried anything else. Second: Make sure everyone else is okay. Third: Find someplace quiet, knock back a shot of silencing potion, and quietly fall apart somewhere out of sight. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Viera girl that I did not vibe with at all. I should have taken it as a sign when I zoned in, went "What in the actual Witchblade fuck is this outfit!?" and ran for the mailbox to get my veteran glams. Fantasia'd them to an elezen man, and haven't looked back. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Put off picking up the Heavensward jobs until after The Vault. Dark Knight hits *different* after that. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Jon's dad? Don't know, don't care. His mom? He'd like to think she'd be proud of who he was and what he's been doing. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Jon (pre-Fantasia) started as an Archer, but I'm not a big fan of Gridania (the whole starting zone hits different if you're a Duskwight) or Bard. So I figured that since they weren't burning heretics in Ishgard anymore, Jon could play around with spells and I always tend to drift towards casters. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Ishgard. Jon has mixed feelings about his home, given that he's seen both the best and the worst of it, (being a Greystone and all.) I picked Ishgard because I really loved the NPCs and the storylines there. And when I fantasia'd and redesigned Jon, him being from Ishgard was a natural fit. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Flattered. His mom worked her ass off for him, and cared a lot about him. Saying he's just like his father would be met with some side eye and maybe a throwing of hands. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 21/07/2026#wolqotd Your WoL decides to sit down and write out their memoirs. Everything they've seen and done, the loves and the losses.... all of it. What's your book called? Bonus round: If your WoL doesn't write an autobiography, who's the author of their (authorized) biography? 171
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Badly. The threats you end during the day come back to visit you at night. Everything on the First especially. He'll have nightmares about the Light, wake up, be sick into the sink and have panic attacks about bringing himself to see if its white or not. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Jon's sense of humor is so black he needs to sign a waiver saying he isn't affiliated with Anish Kapoor. But he's got enough self-awareness to know that most people don't. So he's working on it. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Jon doesn't really feel like he has anyone. Its lonely at the top, and the Scions seeing him as a person instead of The Warrior of Light (tm) is still new and awkward. The people he might have talked to about it are both dead and Jon doesn't feel like he can talk to the Scions about it. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Striking an officer. He absolutely did it. The officer hit him first with a rising crop in a dispute, and Jon beat the shit out of him. Jon ended up with a scar on his face, fifteen scars on his back, and a number of officers who walked very quietly around him after that. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Ishgard. He's originally from there, and he missed it, warts and all. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 06/07/2026That after all the light infusion/absorption on the first, the WoL's scars have a faint glow to them, in the dark. 040
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 23/06/2026#ffxiv #evercold Since I've seen people commenting on the Norse vibe in the teaser Evercold trailer, any guesses on what the 8man EX mounts will look like? We've had horses, falcons, dragons, lynxes and just wings. What's next? 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I didn't give Jon's retainers a lot of thought at first, but now they've kind of grown into their own people and it makes sense for him to have staff for his house and his affairs. 010
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Makes Jon a little melancholy, actually. He remembers when all of Ishgard was green, before the Calamity. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 14/06/2026That Jon's mother is still alive. She thought he had died when his unit was ambushed (there was a mistake in identifying bodies and he was reported as KIA), and while he was gone there had been a fever ripping through the Brume, and his mother had been misidenified as dead when she was not. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Jon had it kind of shit, tbh. As one of many Greystones in Ishgard, he was a living reminder that someone's dad couldn't keep it in his pants. Growing up, he got in a lot of fights, about half of which he didn't start. 000
jolinar.bsky.social @jolinar.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Fantasia'd him and I'm quite happy. Probasbly doing it wrong, but here we are. #FFXIV #elezen #duskwight 051
