Burn you once, you crave the pain #GPOSERS | #Drow | #Duskwight | #Elezen

Durafein on a pitch black background appearing to take off a black garment blending into the background. It's sliding off revealing his shoulders but his forearms are obscured. His hands are poised pulling the fabric open but it's impossible to tell where exactly it ends and the background begins. His head is tilted to the side and his lips are twisted up into a smirk as he stares at the viewer. Due to the black background and his black attire, his crimson red eyes are the only saturated color in the image. His muscular torso is exposed with the center of his chest and abdominal muscles centered in the frame. The image is cropped just beneath the V-shaped groove on his exposed hips.
Creator's note (Stop reading here if you don't want the 'magic' revealed) Those familiar with the game will know that no clothing item exists that appears to be slipping off the character's shoulders. The illusion is created with two rectangular partitions dyed jet black and angled so that they partially cover his shoulders and arms.

Literally saw that frame and went "oh no"

A close up of a previous gpose showing an armored masculine figure with an armored hand tracing the sharpened tips of his armored fingers along a feminine Drow's chin

When you're sick AF on your couch watching an old comfort movie and you see the exact frame that developed into a kink FML

A widescreen shot from the 1994 film Stargate which shows the first appearance of Ra's guard. The guard's armored hand hangs at his waist, his fingers spread and curled to reveal the claw shaped armor tips. This movie was like 10 years old when I started watching it and I have no idea what was going on in the early 90s. There's plenty of questionable choices in this film but those finger claws fucked.

Finally! #Gposers | #Gpose | #Duskwight | #Elezen I'm just so happy! More canon gposes coming soon, I know actual gameplay related stuff isn't common from me

a screenshot of a Duskwight Elezen in a silver mask with a black hood and pointed owl-like ears protruding from the top of the hood. His head is framed by a black rocky formation against a dark grey background. He's wearing black and silver attire and he's sitting cross-legged on a gigantic Triple Triad card with a plain red backing and gold frame. His hands are curled into fists and he's pulling them towards his chest in a victorious gesture with white sparkles around him

Cosmic Exploration #GPOSERS | #Gpose | #Elezen

A tall masculine figure wearing a teal space helmet with a large black reflective faceplate. He's standing casually with one gloved hand resting on a utility belt and one leg crossed over the other. He's wearing a cropped black shrug with orange accents, gloves with teal metal bits, and his shirt and shorts are matching metallic teal. His legs are covered in black tights with a white racing stripe down the side of the legs and orange shoes with black accents. He's standing on a metal platform with a futuristic looking door behind him lined with glowing lights fading from magenta to orange to yellow.

Reminder - Make it Rain discount prizes are at the "Campaign Attendant" The prizes are full price at their normal NPCs! Don't overpay! Look for the Campaign Attendant just down the steps from the "Cactpot Broker" near the welcome sign #FFXIV #GoldSaucer #FFXIVMakeItRain

A cropped polaroid style screenshot of a Huyr NPC in a white suit with black trim standing near a large Sabotender statue that reads "Welcome" a sticker of a white glove pointing has been stamped onto the photo to point at the npc. Text at the bottom of the polaroid frame reads "Campaign Attendant" in large text with "discount prizes found here!" in smaller text beneath

Stuck in the throat of Gods #GPOSERS | #Gpose | #Drow | #Elezen | #Duskwight I finally found a way to use those pants. Four chains on each hip makes them perfect for a Spider Queen ceremony.

Drow XIV@drowxiv· May 9

Yeah

A screenshot of a small blue and black clad Elezen with a glowing blue sword and shield running towards a glowing VNC Dungeon exit on a tropical island with a text bubble above his head that reads "I wish I was good at this game lmao"

By the sword #gposers | #drow | #elezen | #duskwight

Viedyn with his back to the camera. He's in a dark room and his figure is framed by a dreary grey opening. The black shadow of a sword looms down the center of his back, his arms hang at his sides and his head is tilted slightly upwards

Drow XIV@drowxiv· Apr 18

A taste #GPOSERS | #Drow | #Duskwight | #OneHighlight Challenge!

A silhouette of a lean muscular Drow against a deep crimson background. A sliver of light is cast diagonally over his body from the side of his face to his hip. In the narrow window of light there's a glimpse of his long white hair and one crimson eye is visible gazing at the camera. He's lifting his hand to his mouth and licking one of his fingertips. The light goes on to reveal a sliver of his muscular torso all the way to his bare hip and upper thigh, insinuating he's not wearing anything, but nothing beyond the single highlight can be seen!

Drow XIV@drowxiv· Mar 26

Geeking out sorry Aside from being a cool af mod - I depict Durafein & Viedyn's mother with a halo of swords to mark her as their creator She both literally & figuratively forged them into the weapons they became and she uses them like weapons to defend her power (I love her your honor)

Durafein & Viedyn's mother, Nulrae. A powerful Drow Matron with long white hair. She's smiling down at the viewer, a silver circlet in a thin wickedly spiked design sits on her forehead, the rounded center resembling the body of a spider, making it look like the legs grasping her forehead, tracing her brows, and running down along her cheeks beneath her red eyes. Silver necklaces wrap around her throat and what can be seen of her attire is a rich black with a luxurious sheen and a generous neckline. Her right hand is in view with her armored fingers curled towards her thoughtfully. Her middle and pointer finger are capped with elongated claws that are practically knives. Her head is framed by a glowing white halo of silver swords pointing outwards, giving her an air of importance with a sense of power and violence.

I had to scroll for ages but I finally found my favorite. Happened at a Market board in Limsa shortly after I acquired the fallen angel wings

Mysterious Miquo'te: Don't turn around. Drop all your money and leave the wings. You do what I say and I will let you live. heehee
Viedyn: (an emoji of an innocent face)
Mysterious Miquo'te: Come on. Hurry up
Mysterious Miquo'te: are you going to hand it over?
Viedyn: I don't think I've ever been mugged by someone so smol (using a slang spelling of small)
Mysterious Miquo'te: (sad face text emoji) now you are going to make me cry (sad face text emoji)
Viedyn: Awww don't cry it's not your fault you can't reach my wings (crying text emoji)
Note: at this point in the conversation the Miquo'te had begun jumping up behind him in an attempt to reach his height.
Mysterious Miquo'te: I can if you sit down
Note: I actually had Viedyn sit for her which isn't something I'll normally do but it was too cute.
Viedyn: you're bad at this mugging thing (taunting text emoji)

Penance owed #GPOSERS | #Elezen | #Duskwight | #ElezenHours

A masculine figure in black and silver armor emerging from pitch blackness. His face is completely concealed by a black veil and a silver crown rests upon his head. He's arching his sword up towards the viewer as if he's lunging to strike. His hand and the hilt are caught in the light but the blade of the sword vanishes into the darkness behind him. His left arm is positioned slightly behind him and mostly obscured by the dark, there's a sliver of his armored hand making a fist and the glimpse of a shield mounted to his arm. His arms, torso, and hips are most heavily armored, with heavy black robes flowing from his hips, disappearing into the darkness. The light is faintly catching the edges of black wings and a delicate white circle frames his head, similar to saint iconography, marking him of importance. A note on the caption - I'm not religious although I am aware of some religious lore, this was a mix of me being hyped about new glam while listening to music. Specifically a Sleep Token song with the lyrics "I have paid my penance kindly well in time for judgement day"

For those who are light sensitive but don't have/want shaders - I made a graphic to show two quick ways you can make the new Variant Dungeon more comfortable via System Config It's not perfect but it helps #FFXIV | #VariantDungeon | #FFXIV7.45 | #FFXIVPatch7.45

a graphic that reads "Quick fox for eye-comfort in vanilla FFXIV" with a screenshot showing a non-spoiler-y shot of the variant dungeon architecture. The before has bright bold colors while the after is darker and more muted. The two steps below the graphic read "Under System Config - Display Settings: Drop the gamma correction to zero with an arrow pointing to the gamma slider and an emphasis on the read-out showing "0". The second step reads "Under System Config - Accessibility Settings: Enable Color Filtering Type 2" with an arrow pointing to the color filtering settings, the "Enable" toggle circled and "Type 2" underlined in the drop down.

Quick Durafein appreciation because I had to make a really quick ref sheet for him #GPOSERS | #Drow | #Duskwight | #Elezen Not posting the full sheet I'm going to re-do it when I get a 4k monitor later this month

Durafein. A Drow male with long white hair, grey skin, and red eyes. He's standing against a solid black background with his left arm resting on his hip. He's wearing a sleeveless cropped top with a leather strap, leather gloves that go up to his biceps with silver armor, loose black pants that tie at the waist, and black leather boots.

I've mentioned before that I'm married to the person who originally created Durafein He plays hockey! So as a secret little nod I specifically chose these pants for Durafein because they have a similar shape to hockey pants (the irl pic isn't mine it's just to show the pants as worn)

A cropped image showing a previous gpose of Durafein's midsection and hips. The black pants curve upwards on either side of him, dipping low at the crotch. Durafein's pants are an eastern-inspired design with a thick tie at the front. It's next to a cropped photo example of a hockey player who has lifted his jersey. His black padded pants also curve upwards on either side of his hips then dip low at the crotch. The silhouettes are similar and I thought it was neat.

Survive #GPOSERS | #Drow | #Duskwight | #Elezen "minor cuts & scrapes" edition The full edition is posted on my profile behind a content warning

A pair of Drow brothers. Viedyn and Durafein. Viedyn is wearing his heavy black plate armor with silver and bronze accents. He's crouched on the ground holding an unconscious, injured, Durafein propped up against his bent knee and chest. Durafein's shoulder is slung over Viedyn's leg to help keep him up and Viedyn's hand is gripping him firmly to hold him up. Viedyn's holding his sword with his other hand, the tip pointed down, touching the ground off screen in a defensive position in front of them. Viedyn's head is turned up towards the viewer, glaring with his teeth bared. His blue eyes are narrowed beneath his long white bangs and a smudge of Durafein's blood paints his grey jawline. Durafein's head is propped up by Viedyn's shoulder and his head is resting against Viedyn's chest just beneath his neck. Durafein's eyes are closed and his lips are slightly parted. His face is scraped up and he has a minor cut on his lip and forehead. His long white hair is loose around his face with the tiniest smudge of red from the cut on his lip. He's wearing a cropped black garment over his chest, leaving his midsection exposed. (Note: I'm gonna be 100% honest I wasn't going to have his abs exposed here but when I realized his typical outfit is all black so nothing was gonna show up I was like "welp, guess abs are back on the menu") There's an angry red scrape across his ribs. Durafein's knees are bent under him and a dagger appears strapped to his upper left thigh. The grey stone floor beneath them has a small red smear from where Durafein had been laying on the floor.

A close-up cropped shot of the previous image. This shows a better look at Viedyn's snarling expression. His grey lips are pulled up unevenly, baring white teeth. His nostrils are drawn up in a snarl causing dark creases on either side of his nose. Slight crinkling on the bridge of his nose is visible beneath his long white bangs and his brows are sharply angled down above his narrowed blue eyes. His usual silver and black circlet rests atop his forehead above his bangs. Durafein is unconscious with his head resting against Viedyn's chest. His lips are parted and it's easier to see that blood is staining his teeth from the small cut on his lip.

His lips are parted and it's easier to see that blood is staining his teeth. It's smeared across the left side of his face and staining his long white hair. It's just beginning to drip down his neck like the worst of it happened just before Viedyn picked him up.

OOC Bonus - Their dynamic was heavily inspired by these two and if you know who they are I'm really sorry about the back and/or knee pain Most of my OCs have some sort of inspiration from Escaflowne. Sometimes unintentionally - the anime & movie got ingrained in me when I was young x.x

Sora stands facing Folken Fanel with a massive window and a dark blue sky behind them. She has long wavy white hair, pointed ears, and she's wearing lightly colored robes tied at the front. Folken looms over her wearing a jet black coat trimmed with gold and (god only knows what was going on with anime in the 00's) he has the sickest silvery-blue mullet imaginable. It's like David Bowie's mullet went Super Saiyan.

Could you take the three of them? #GPOSERS | #Drow | #Elezen | #Duskwight

Three Drow in an underground cavern. Viedyn stands in the center wearing black and silver plate armor. He's holding his shield at the ready on his left arm and his sword is being held low at his side on the right. Behind him stand his Lieutenant's. The Lieutenant on the left is reaching behind her to draw a short sword in a casual, taunting sort of manner. She has a slight smirk on her face and she's wearing simpler, lighter, black armor. Her hair is short and parted to one side obscuring her right eye. The Lieutenant on the right is holding a short sword low at his side and appears to be striding up behind Viedyn. Behind them warm light spills through a rocky corridor framing Viedyn in an orange glow. The three of them are lit with a cool glow of the cavern they've entered. The rocky ground beneath them dips into a murky looking pool of water.

Not my usual - but I haven't seen a Limsa rave go this wild in a hot minute (Also this was a tough shot to grab)

a colorful saturated shot of a crowd of players waving glow sticks while a large band plays in Limsa. A tall Viera in a blue, black, and brown dress is leading the band with her trumpet. Many of the string players behind her are obscured by the glow and sparkle of musical notes coming off their instruments. A large colorful firework is going off to the side just out of focus and a small fire is casting a warm glow across the stones. The crowd are waving colorful glow sticks of red, blue, purple, white, and green while others are in the middle of dancing. There's a lot of chaos and energy going on is what I'm saying.

Drow XIV@drowxiv· Feb 6

Because some fanart just punched this back into my brain- Last week I was like "Gee I dunno why I like de-saturated characters so much! Big Mystery!" No! This is why! This is what happened to me! T_T Before Final Fantasy, before Drow, there was this fucker right here...

a transparent PNG of "Dark Link" from the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. This is the 3DS version to most accurately depict what he looks like. He's a shadowy manifestation of Link wearing black attire, with dark grey skin, glowing red eyes, and medium grey hair.

The final ended up being one where she was pulled back slightly but I've been dying for an excuse to show this outtake I'm personally a huge fan of showing a small gap with a "hint-of-tongue" in my kissing shots (if it fits the context!)

A Drow priestess locked in an embrace with a mysterious armored figure. Her long white hair is plaited at the sides and tied back just out of frame. Her smooth grey face is partially obscured by a black circlet that drops down to a wicked point from her temples to the hollow of her cheeks. Her lips are brushing against the black metal helmet above where the wearer's mouth would be. Her lips are parted slightly and her tongue is pressed against the metal helmet.

The visor of the helmet opens to a silver mask with hollow black eyes, giving the impression of a face while keeping the wearer obscured. He's wearing heavy plate armor and his arm is wrapped around the priestess, his armored hand gripping the back of her neck to hold her against him. Her hand is partially visible pressed against his armored chest.

Drow XIV@drowxiv· Jan 25

Try the grey stuff - it's delicious! (No, seriously, don't lick him he tastes like sweat & leather)

My OC, Viedyn. A Drow with grey skin and short white hair wearing a silver and black circlet with matching armor smirking at the camera.

A close-up photo of "The Grey Stuff" from Disney parks. This version (No idea if they still even serve this, who knows) is a white chocolate cookies & cream mousse with a red velvet and raspberry filling. The cookies & cream seem to be finely blended which gives the white chocolate mousse a grey appearance. It's piped in a spiral on top of a biscuit and decorated with edible pearl sprinkles.

Gloomstalker #GPOSERS | #Elezen | #Drow Durafein's Daughter, Aleniyah Lovingly referred to by her party as "Glass canon" Has a secret & unrequited crush on a Warforged Comes up with ridiculous plans that work 80% of the time Accidentally ruined the DM's plans 3x and counting

A shadowy figure in a dark stone corner with an arrow drawn and held at the ready in a dark wood longbow with silver detailing. She's standing in shallow water and the light coming through the stone corridor is catching her arm and part of her chest as she readies her bow. She's wearing leather with metal armor reinforcing her shins, knees, elbows, and her right forearm. Her leather is a mix of black and dark teal green. Her skin is a light/med grey and her long white hair peeks from beneath her black hood. The hood hangs low over her face so only her nose and mouth are visible, a confident grin can be seen on her dark grey, lightly polished (they have chapstick in D&D right?) lips.

Bio-digital jazz #GPOSERS | #Duskwight | #Elezen Stood in normal-ass mechanics, but damn I looked good doing it.

A Duskwight Elezen with short white hair and grey skin. He's wearing a black leather coat with a cowl neck and overlapping details down the front. His arms and neck are clad in metalwork giving him a futuristic appearance. A black halo with a glowing blue ring hovers behind his head and he holds a glowing white chakrams in each hand.
His simple black pants are close-fitted and expose his knees, although they're partially protected by knee-high boots with blue laces. He's standing on a futuristic-looking blue and purple background.

Drow XIV@drowxiv· Jan 15

Color the night #GPOSERS | #Duskwight | #Elezen | #ElezenHours

A Duskwight Elezen with grey skin and short white hair leaning into frame, staring at the viewer. Long fringed bangs hang over his blue eyes. His lips are pulled into a slight smirk. Black earphones with bright blue trim partially cover his ears and glowing blue earrings hang from beneath them. He's wearing a double-layered black leather choker with a silver and blue charm dangling in the hollow of his throat. The light purple lighting is catching the curve of his collarbone and a plain black shirt peeks from beneath a blue and black coat.

The same Duskwight Elezen as the portrait, now seen full body. He's resting on the ground with one leg propped up and bent at the knee with his arm draped lazily over it. The other leg, closest to the camera, is resting against the ground, bent at the knee, with his foot tucked under his other leg. His other arm rests on his lowered knee giving him a casual posture. He's wearing a long black and blue coat with fur trim around the collar, black fingerless gloves trimmed in matching blue, and tall black boots with blue laces. Large black wings arch up from his back and extend off frame. The background is a mix of light neon blues and purples against deep navy blue and black.

tweaked the FC yard to be a little more private loving the Zormor Stone Lanterns with the Hedge Partitions #FFXIVHousing

a night-time screenshot of a cozy Ishgardian yard with large Ishgardian buildings rising in the background. The yard has a stone and iron gate, tall hedges form a sort of 'fence' around the front perimeter with tall stone lanterns sitting in gaps between the hedges. Tall willow trees hang over two cozy stone bath houses and a large stone fire pit with benches is centered on the two bath houses.

Better late than never! Went up as a scheduled post yesterday on my Tumblr but I couldn't get around to re-posting here til today :P So happy Friday! I managed to Gpose every month (just barely!) which was my goal for 2025 so I'm pleased. #GposeWrapped2025
