Fun trend, fun way to think on how to represent lore, theme, and mechanics in such a manner to fit
Nika's WoD / assassin set up.
Some explanations in the alt text🐈⬛🖤🗡️

Interesting, interesting
Unown plays well into the idea that Nika's powers are largely from her Ancient self.
"Unown develop an odd power when multiple of them are together"
Nika needs 8 Unown with her to match being 8 times rejoined lol

Tank🛡️: Dark Knight
DPS🗡️: Ninja
Healer⚕️: N/A
Nika can't heal so she'd just have another DPS job
As Ninja she would focus more on bursting down targets one at a time and have a chance to just 1 hit KO.
As a Viper she would do more cleave to packs, but weaker overall damage.

Your WoL/OC has been added to the Trust system as an NPC support, and an all-rounder at that!
What jobs do they use for each of the roles?

There have been many, many inspirations for Nika over the years regarding her tropes, personality traits, physical appearance, etc.
These are just a few that I thought of recently, but I might come back and revise them to capture a broader spectrum or elaborate on each choice later.

Some talk among friends regarding our OCs and their behaviors and physiology as related to their race made me gpose one of Nika's cat-isms:
-It's not uncommon for Nika to go off and climb a tall tree for a cat nap🐈⬛😴

Some of my favorite vanilla gposes from many years ago.
The "vs. Ifrit" ones I was very proud of at the time as it took A LOT of patience trying to line up Ifrit's attacks with my own to get the right shot🗡️🔥

Nika is pronounced "NEE-kah"
(the first syllable "Ni" uses the long e sound like "see" and the second syllable "-ka" uses the short "uh" sound)
Her surname, Arwing, is just pronounced "R-wing".
I don't think I've heard anyone pronounce either name wrong thus far🐈⬛🤭

💖 #WoLQotD | #WoLQuestion 💖
Names!
They're quite interesting and complex, yes?
How would your WoL/OCs name be pronounced?
Is it commonly mispronounced? Are there any shortened versions or nicknames that they don't like?
What about ones they do like?

I'll most likely just stick with Nika's canon jobs, NIN/VPR/DRK
I'm VERY curious to see how NIN will be with the new Evolved mode.
That said, I've been considering bringing RPR in under Nika's Umbral Blade job umbrella, but I'll have to wait and see how things play out in Evercold.

Do you know your Evercold job yet? Are you staying the course or changing it up?
Or are you sitting here waiting to hear about job changes and evolved mode before you commit to anything specific?
