i still enjoy thinking about pollux in 14 because he is absolutely just. oh you can be a wretch in the gremlin way. like he would be a defected garlean who joins the ironworks. has the moral compass of nero but doesn’t have “prove your worth” issues nero had going for a minute. fuck it we ball kinda vibe. cid sanctions what he does because he is going to do the thing either way. he was in bozja when it blew up and is Totally Well Adjusted about seeing his boss be tempered by bahamut and the explosion there. worked on the g-force warrior from the sorrows trial series and wishes cid let him put more guns on it. the sort of “that was fucked up what happened with the ruby weapon huh? *pause* anyway what is going on inside this thing.”

edit: he would be mean Nero until the end of the omega raids at which point he still be mean to him but it’s in a stupid Rude way, but not like a malicious rude way. (I think about what nero says in the omega raids + ew role quests a lot bc he’s just some cool dude)

#he would be Insufferable during the omega quests as this funny sidequest npc #who actually has some deep lore and insights if talked to #he would move to gangos if you did omega and then started bozja #would have like….big lore on how ordinary folks/low level military folks felt about the early meteor projects and the bozja incident #he doesn’t care about the WoL being the WoL really. they’re just Some Guy #either a beloved npc for the interesting lore and the not giving a fuck about the WoL’s status kind of npc #or the one people dislike because he doesn’t care/he has a lazy attitude about garlean politics and their actions #he doesn’t take responsibility for what happened—it’s not his responsibility to bear the sins of his country #did he have a role in bozja? yes. could he have done something about what happened? maybe #did he though? no he cared more about surviving #he isn’t a hero. he’s not hostile to the WoL like others are in EW #but he is quick to remind them of the fear and trepidation others have of them #Pollux would be not unlike maxima and cid—people who care about their country but are not blind to its flaws #he is deepest troubled by the bozjan incident and the meteor project #sjdjdjd gonna stop before I give myself brain worms #owen plays ffxiv
