MAN does Bastion ever look cool, I'm generally neutral on the subject of jobs that aren't dragoon, but I'm excited, I really wanna try it out. Annoyed as I am to have WAR bumped out of MT role, I gotta say ranged attacks are really practical for boss positioning... I won't miss the stutter-step.

This is an unrealistic AU comic because Estinien isn't allowed to change his armour without SE's marketing department approval, but seeing all these Reaper!Meteor images put this thought into my mind....... #FFXIV #evercold

wait i finally read the totem description and lmfao?

Mad Harlequin's Totem
Miscellany
A small-yet-handsomely crafted idol of Kefka, fashioned by himself on a whim. A message addressed to you is hand-carved into the base:
"Well? What're you waiting for? Buy yourself a nice weapon, why don't you!"

This is essentially how I feel about it too, now that 8.0 is on the horizon. DT set up a bunch of potentially interesting things (tension/competition between the Scions! Exploring a new continent! A lost shard that is actively hostile towards the Source!), but then couldn't commit 100% to any of it.

Working on some stickers for @fanfestathome.bsky.social! Here's the first of several new designs. This was my favourite detail about Sphene in Dawntrail: that, when called back to her own senses during the final battle, she heard out the heroes and then said "No thank you, I'm sticking to my plan."

Continuing to mess around in my sketchbook..... drew Emet-Selch #FFXIV I had a single magenta marker at the time, so it made an appearance.

Not sure if I'll finish this one, but the memory still makes me laugh--that one time a certain unique trait of Living Dead, and an Everkeep EX farm finishing the fight at the exact wrong time, conspired for a good old-fashioned dramatic anime collapse. #FFXIV #FFXIVart

I think Bluesky image uploading is busted right now (for me, at least), so I guess I'll hold off on posting this comic until some later time.

Sorrel @ Fanfest at Home All Saint's Wake @xivsorrel.bsky.social · 09/09/2025

I'm hoping that my new post image is broken only for me, I'll stop trying to reupload and just wait awhile to see if it fixes itself......

YETICON HERE WE GO!! (Finally put this account on my phone so I can update it at shows haha) I'm all the way in the corner this year. Cons: out of the way, tucked out of sight. Pros: easy to describe! Just point in a direction and say, all the way up in there.

Also regarding the Arcadion... Back when the premise (straight up fighting tournament) of the tier was announced and we knew nothing else about it, I was hoping SO hard that something like this would happen. Let me friendly-duel Estinien!!! Please, i'm begging... #ffxiv #ffxivart

Played a game last night wherein we put FFXIV character names into a randomizer, and had 15 minutes to draw whoever it spat out. The first result was Alpha!
