I started FFXIV when the game was still in ARR, but since I was in my early teens, I wouldn't ask my parents to pay for a monthly sub, and the free trial only lasted 15 days. Flash forward to around 2016 when I purchased the game. I believe I took a break to focus on school, then in 2018, that was when my journey truly began. I made it to *that* scene after the Vault and knew I was in love. Since then, I've been playing regularly with a break every so often.

My first venture into high-end content was with a group that I was introduced by someone who was in the same SINoALICE guild at the time. Up until then, I assumed I wasn't a good enough player, so I never joined them in Shadowbringers content. When Endwalker hit, I was offered to join as a DPS. They encouraged me to at least try and I realized I was too hard on myself (what a shocker). Quickly realizing I wasn't the only one with learning disabilities (Somehow I'm really good at learning video games, but real life knowledge? Nonexistent.) as well as other related conditions, I felt seen and understood. Agreeing that we would only do the "easier" high-end content, we completed Zodiark EX, Hydaelyn EX, Endsinger EX, Barbie EX, Rubicante EX, P1S, P2S, and P5S as they released, but then life happened and we disbanded. I don't have the will to go into PF completely alone, so I haven't done anything high-end since then.

That aside, I usually run trial and normal raid roulettes on a daily basis. I used to do alliance raid roulette, but since the iLevel changes, I've gotten a Crystal Tower raid 95% of the time, which I drop immediately. If there were actual mechanics to do and job "rotations" that didn't make me fall asleep, I'd stay. In terms of non-combat, I've recently started big fishing and caught a decent amount of ARR fish. And, of course, GPosing is a part of my repertoire, which is the main feature of this page!

I have two main characters that I keep up to date and three others that were made for fun or cosplay. My screenshots are affected by Reshade, but the only shaders I use affect colour (increased vibrancy) and add a bit of shadow. Some characters will have the Ancient Eyes mod as well. Obviously, PS4 screenshots don't have shaders, just in-game effects (which are quite good actually).
