The Perfidious 14th ~ Dawntrail'd

like, come on, it's literally isu's design language gimme a BREAK why can't this be in a better story

it's annoying that platinum end is so (points at story plaintively) because I love the designs for the angels (unsurprisingly lol lmao even)

ffxiv in kingdom hearts and Goofy does a cover of Answers

but held back thanks to the (to him, surprisingly real and not part of his facade) connections to the Scions.

He becomes less of a prick through ShB but that part of him that thinks it may be necessary - or even preferable - to conjure a better world over a mountain of corpses never truly fades 4/4

the result of bad actors, beliefs in racial superiority, and moral corruption.

He plotted to overthrow the nascent Ala Mhigan state and install himself as dictator to build his vision of the world, 3/4

He was probably the first to realise that he could build a following as a "Hero" and deliberately played into that and exploited it.

It's a very post-Garlean belief, held by someone indoctrinated by the system, seeing the flaws inherent but believing that they were 2/3

Actively manipulative and a wannabe tyrant.

Pre-ShB Isu believed that the world would be better if it followed his exact beliefs, and was willing to weaponise and mold his image to build it, as well as cutting down anyone (enemy or not) that stood in his way. 1/2

It's grim how much I enjoy this foul creature (affectionate) (sort of)

that I've not named yet - Harbinger or Herald speaks to me (occasionally I think of literally calling it Lucifer for Lightbringer, but that's a bit too on the nose even for me).

There's a few smaller ones, e.g: WHM to act as a field medic in Bozja, but that's pretty much his job swap story :)

6/6

heads back into a defensive mindspace, picking up Thancred's gunblade and developing into a GNB. By the end of Endwalker, however, he's come to terms as his dual identity as both Isu and Ikaros, and allows himself to slip into his natural fighting style of Viper (but with Light effects teehee)

5/?

and uses throughout Shadowbringers. Through Shadowbringers, the breaking and remolding of his soul, and the reawakening of his past as Ikaros, he remembers that as Azem he used something very akin to the Viper style, but rejects it, still trying to affirm his own identity, and so

4/?

the mental headspace he'd been in, so going into and throughout Stormblood he dabbles with Red Magic, since the synthesis of Black and White Magic, along with the fencing element, feels balanced to him. He then develops an appreciation for the Samurai swordstyle, which he adopts in post-patch

3/?

Into Heavensward, the mini-breakdown he has from the Banquet has him abandon the defensive ethos he'd held as a PLD. Observing Estinien, he develops into a Dragoon as it is the most aggressive and violent combat form he knows of at this point. Losing and then saving Estinien breaks him from

2/?

Lots of swaps throughout. PreARR, he was sort of a gladiator, but it was more of an informal, ragged style developed from scavenging a sword and shield on his journey to Eorzea I've internally named as Vagabond. Into ARR, he formalizes into Paladin training throughout.

1/?

Ah crap, missed it - ah well, next time I'll jump on it asap lol

lrp - Haven't gotten round to posting this because of work, but an absolutely incredible commission by fiveonthe - I've always adored their artstyle, and can't believe I was so lucky to get to commission them for Isu!

Thanks again for taking me for this one - anyone thinking of commissioning you, I cannot recommend it enough! You rendered Isu perfectly and were brilliant throughout <3

Sin eater commission, thank you so much! 🤍✨ #ffxiv

Anything for his Hero

Insane commission by @lby2k99.bsky.social of Ikaros being his arrogant little self - love it SO much, thank you AGAIIIIN <3

yoink

lrp every time someone does a sineater au/design for their wol, an angel gains its wings or smth i dunno but i fuckin love it

Art from 2023. Featuring my viera WoL, Elodie Aurifort as a Sineater / Lightwarden from Final Fantasy XIV. Going by the name Lightwarden Mania / Sineater Forgiven Obsession, she is kneeling as black tears stream down her face. She looks at the viewer, scared and confused but almost accepting of her state. She holds her hands as if she was going to bring them up to her face but forgot why. Going through the motions but she doesn't understand them.

ancient allagan cock ring: please give me an official sin eater exarch form so i can take it to my usual porn artist. i don't want to design it myself

one wish for an ultimate i won't even prog

i mean... yeah

(the light actually forced his body to snap back to the original shape of Azem's soul, which forced him to look like a sin-eater forever, since Emet designed sin eaters to look like Azem's transformed form blablabla)

rarely do i comprehend a series of letters that so brutally enforce an image without my say-so on my mind, and rarer still do i find myself thinking 'real'

This is a question Isu is having to face. Since ShB and effectively becoming a Sin-Eater (which Emet-Selch designed on Azem's true form, which Isu now looks like) he knows that his essence is endless, untouchable stasis. He's looking fown the barrel of eternity and is gulping in terror.

1 - Immensely loyal
2 - Secretly a revolutionary at heart, wanting to overturn all unjust systems for the innocent
3 - The image of a perfect hero (ARR-STB) and an Idol of Sanctity (SHB-DTR)

1 - The image and idol are complete and deliberate fabrications
2 - Immensely ambitious
3 - Callous

when will yoship bestow upon me a colour wheel/full rgb to make my white boy white
