Ishgardians having more prominent fangs + Sharlayan Colony in Dravania -> Ameliance Dark Knight heirloom -> twins with fangs

Backstory for Angelo

((A drabble of backstory I wrote for the Xaela WoL I have,))

His birth name was not Angelo, that would merely be a name he adopted after abandoning his past life. No before that he was born to the Tumet Tribe of Xaela Au'Ra in the Steppe of the East. Due to the customs of his tribe he was treated very distantly and was unnamed since birth. It was not till his tenth summer that he learned of the ancient custom of his tribe. This custom was the way their tribe was able to strengthen their children to turn them into warriors to defend the tribe. Angelo as a child was taken to a tree in the wild and was bound to it by his own parents. Once he was bound tightly to the tree unable to escape his family left him behind. The entirety of his tribe moved to their next location leaving him behind. The intended tradition said that if the child was worthy of living they'd escape from their bonds and reunite with the tribe. Angelo was able to accomplish this trial set before him... however the experience of both his escape and traveling through the wilds of the step left him forever changed. What was once the happy child was now an instinctual cold warrior of the Steppe.

It should have been exactly what the tribe needed, and he did bring them glory as a warrior in his youth. Over the next 5 years he managed to bring many enemies of the tribe to their knees. As well as keeping them safe from any wild beasts that would threaten their livelihood. However there was this beast inside of Angelo that had been awakened after the violence he had experienced. His warriors blood would send him into a frenzy in battle, tearing desperately into his enemies and utterly butchering them with his long sword. Whether it was beast or man all died to him even in his youth. His tribe whispered amongst themselves, dubbing him the Devil of Tumet. A name that was feared amongst all the Xaela tribes as a brutal weapon wielded by the Tumet.

It wasn't till another 5 years passed that everything came over. His father ended up confronting him over his methods. Xaela were not an honor bound race of Au'Ra, but Angelo's savagery had become far too much for the tribe to control. His father felt the need to assert his authority by force to make his child heel. However when his father tried to threaten his son, Angelo was reminded of all the grief and pain his parents had caused him. How they caused this spark of fire inside of him to turn into a raging inferno. The young Xaela saw nothing but red in his vision and he let out all of his emotions that were buried in his gut. When he came too, his father lay dead at his feet.

His tribe did not outright banish him, but after seeing the monster that he had become. Angelo knew that the rest of his tribe would not be safe until he had managed to cool himself. Or find a strong enough foe to put him down.

Thus Angelo discarded his old life and name. To forever walk the path of one reborn in the light of the moon. If his soul was one of a beasts he would wander far from his homeland to the desert city of Ul’dah. He would commit himself to the gladiator pits as a self inflicted punishment. To fight until he could be snuffed out by a more powerful beast. However when he took the caravan to Ul’dah, he dreamed of a bizarre sight... the Mother Crystal beckoned to him. He would not find redemption in a bloody spectator sport. No he would find redemption in serving the side of light. To kill all who would threaten to bring the world into darkness. If they wished to feed on the suffering of the people he would in turn feed the beasts of darkness his sword. For he deep down was The Devil of Tumet. And it was in his nature to bloody any battlefield. At least this time he would draw blood for the sake of the realm.

I know little of the Keepers and their cultural norms, but I suppose it should not come as a surprise that matters of grooming and personal maintenance should carry a more pragmatic connotation for those who live in such isolation - or perhaps our friend is simply strange, regardless of his context. I must admit: it was no small comfort to me, in those frigid days heralding the twilight of the Dragonsong War, to discover that our champion did not share our Sharlayan intuition toward personal space. Our more guarded companions don't always share my gratitude for the attention, but I believe that after our long estrangement, even the coldest of hearts could not fail to be warmed by such a gesture.

“little one” is such an underutilized pet name in fics and imma start a soft girl riot if i don’t see it more often.

like maybe it gives too much ddlg vibes for a lot of people?? i know that’s why i rarely write it; it has a very specific (but good) connotation to me, but i’m trying to appeal to a wider range of readers while also writing for myself. BUT

i swear to you

if i heard that from certain pretty anime men in any context i would lose my shit. not naming them bc i see all of u whipping out those drabbles and hcs when i write shitposts and i’m trying not to spontaneously combust today. 🤨

There is the belief in Eorzea that a second marriage- usually one experienced by a widow- is just as special, if not more so, than the first. It is a sign that The Twelve have given that person a second chance at happiness. No more or less important than the first.

ty to @allyennah for linking me to this veil mod, it's everything I've been wanting for her <3
