Fished out of the Whilom as a baby, Talfryn was raised in Tailfeather & joined the Convictors the second he got his growth spurt. Childhood dreams of becoming the next St Daniffen, however, were soon shattered, forcing him to seek a different path....

// Having gone from the hunter community in Tailfeather to the Conservatory, Tal's speech patterns are pretty rough-and-ready (read: swear-heavy) by default; he tends to lean harder into that the fancier the company he finds himself in as a subconscious "I dare you to call me out for not belonging"

Does your wol / oc finding themselves swearing / cursing often? Is it something that just slips out, or it’s completely and irreversibly apart of their vocabulary?

On Monday we'll dedicate a special night to commemorate Dolly. We'll have some special themes you can choose from to fix up a special glam to pay tribute to our inspiration.

// The initial questline is very generic "fight dragons with the Convictors" stuff leading up to the fight where he got his injury & a quest sending you away from their base to (falsely) tell Tal's dad he died.
You don't run into him again until later, during the stuff setting up Foundation (1/2)

What would be the process like to recruit them in an RPG? Do they join via early story mission, or a simple sidequest? Are they an enemy who can be spared and joins you? Do you have to stand on a random tile in the desert with a specific playable character for no reason?

// Tal picked up the lance when he joined the Conservatory determined to be the next St Daniffen, ascend to the Temple Knights, & lift his adoptive family along with him.
This... did not entirely go to plan.
He's had to adjust how he fights to accommodate his disability, so no more DRG for him.

Since my other one went well I have another #wolquestion / #wolqotd in similar style:
Players, may you show and / or tell me about your dragoons / lancers?

// Tal's bio family are, on one side at least, (very minor) scions of House Dzemael. As such, for all he teases @bladeofhonor.etheirys.social about being the son of salt-licking noble Gardie pricks, he's actually the more blue-blooded of the two.
One of the most delicious things you can do as a writer is keep secrets from your characters. For dramatic irony's sake

// Like many Tailfeather hunters,
Tal enjoys a little fogweed, usually picking and drying his own from around Idyllshire; as another hangover from his time at the Convictory he tends to roll it into cigarettes rather than a pipe, & has a lot of the RL WW1 superstitions about matches.

Non-WoL OC, so he's got a much smaller selection than my main girl.
His OG class was ARC as a kid growing up in Tallfeather, but switched to LNC when he joined the Convictors. Following his accident, though, he's mostly DOL/DOH plus jobs where tech can compensate for his disability such as GNB.

// It largely depends on how motivated by spite he is to do so; it's going to be slow going (because his mechanically-braced fingers aren't as dexterous as uninjured ones would be), so it's a coin-flip whether frustration wins out over his innate stubbornness.

// When he has the luxury of both time and disposable income, it's tea made in the Coerthan style (that is, steeped directly in hot yak milk, and sweetened with birch syrup).
The one he drinks the most often, though, is a hangover from the Convictory, similar to the real-world C18th portable soup.

What is your WoL/oc’s favorite warm, relaxing drink?
Or their favorite cold, refreshing drink?
Or both!
Val can never say no to a rose tea blend or an ice cold lemonade, especially raspberry.

According to Eorzean creation myth, Halone is the daughter of Rhalgr. Like her father, she relishes in the bloodthirst of battle. According to Eorzean creation myth, she's known as the "mover of glaciers and goddess of war"

// It's probably not surprising that Tal dreams, and dreams often, about the dragon that ruined his left arm, though never about events as they actually occurred. When he dreams he's slower than he was in life, and the blow hits Eirian instead.

// Since we love a hamfisted metaphor here: it's a bit like losing a limb 😜
Less melodramatic, but still a good metaphor: Eirian maintains and modifies Tal's prosthesis. Tal can keep its basic functions going on his own, but it's very much Surviving not Thriving, keeping things ticking over (just).

#wolqotd: How does your OC react to being separated from their partner for a long time?
Ame finds it peaceful at first since he likes being alone - but as time grows, he starts to miss his big ball of fluff, finding comfort in smelling & sleeping in his clothes 🥹
but he’d never tell him 😌
