She/Her! @olivia.sadboysanime.club but for FFXIV RP stuff! Mostly centered on my main, Mina Angura @ Lamia. Most characters on Lamia [Primal]! 18+ Only, Minors DNI! https://fairlight-rp.carrd.co/

Hey, I’m Olivia Fairlight (she/her), 30-something, EST, here for character-driven FFXIV RP that’s all about deep feels, flexible lore, and the quiet moments that get overlooked. I’m into big moments, slow burning intrigue, and the slice-of-life stuff that happens in between.
Define "run".

Mina's daily runs? She aims for a 7 minute malm once warmed up, which comes out to ~8.6 mph. A flat out sprint under her own natural athletic ability, she can hit ~20mph and hold it for 20-30 seconds. If she uses void shortcuts, it's about the same speed as the aetheryte network.

The amount of Guts and Casca that I've accidentally written into Mina would be alarming were it not for the Brand of Sacrifice on my arm and the complete (so far) set of Berserk Deluxe Edition on my bookshelf.

Is there a character from a TV or film series that you associate your WoL/OC with?

Mina has the confident swagger of someone who could break you in half if she wanted to.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
How would you describe your wol(oc)'s common body language?

Mina crashed out so hard after the apparent death of her first wife that she drifted from the wilderness of Nagxia to the Bloodsands in Ul'dah. When she could think straight again, she was the reigning champion and was dating her "coach".

She retired shortly after that and they got married.
#wolqotd

i don't usually do these, but i want to do a little thought exercise.

what the most pathetic thing your oc has ever done? or, what happened to them to make them feel absolutely pitiful? just the absolute scum fuck lowest they've ever felt, and how that coalesced.

get to the guts of it.

Even split of shitposting, lesbian yearning, and suggestive selfies.

Source: it actually exists, both IC and OOC on Discord.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

What would a family group chat look like with your wol / oc’s family (or families)?
November 7, 2025 at 3:55 AM
Mina is perpetually set to The Ondo Cups for using the funny exploit in Tempest to level BLU alone when I get bored.
#wolqotd: player edition

Which teleportation destinations do you have as your free/reduced cost points? Why those locations? How often do you change them up?

This came up in my FC's Discord many moons ago.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6cS...

Notice the lack of release. It is just pressure. Unrelenting. Stifling. Just like the first time you hear this fight in SMT4, you don't get a turn when you step into the ring with Mina unprepared. You perish.
November 3, 2025 at 7:29 AM
Unless impractical for the activity she's doing, every IC outfit of Mina's will without question contain:

-Open-toed shoes
-Thick-rimmed glasses
-Wedding band
#wolqotd I came to the conclusion that the wardrobe element trinity of my guy is:

• Sash around the waist
• Cleavage
• Knee-High Boots

What is yours?
November 3, 2025 at 7:12 AM
This is why we can't have nice things.
November 3, 2025 at 6:58 AM
I'm not saying Mina has a type, but four of her 5 serious romantic pursuits have been Viera (or Viera-passing), with their size and ears being points of attraction.

Leave it to the trans girl to accidentally RP as a chaser /s
October 27, 2025 at 11:50 AM
Mina was mostly annoyed that she wasn't being allowed to be depressed in silence because of this woman who didn't speak enough Doman or Hingan to communicate with her (and Mina herself spoke no Eorzean at the time).

They've known each other a decade now, and been together for half of it.
#Wolquestion | #WolQotd

What was your WoL's (Oc's) first impression of their future significant other? Was it love at first sight? Or did they perhaps have a wrong first impression?
October 25, 2025 at 8:42 AM
Unless she's on her boat, Mina gets really cranky if she doesn't get her 5 malm run in first thing in the morning.
#WolQOTD #WoLQuestion

Whats an important routine to your OC?

This could be something small like a morning prayer or as big as a weekly schedule they like to stick by.

How is your OC affected when the routine is interrupted or changed?
October 24, 2025 at 10:30 PM
It's a bio, a timeline, a relationship breakdown... Mina's Carrd is practically an encyclopedia entry on the woman.

My other big characters have Carrds too but nowhere near as detailed.
October 19, 2025 at 10:16 AM
Mina used one to make her tail bigger because as she got faster and stronger she needed more counter balance to stay effective.

She also thinks it's cuter but good luck getting her to say that, there's maybe 6 people shed admit that to.
#wolquestion | #wolqotd
For the players, is there some special meaning behind using a Fantasia?
Has your WoL used them for particular lore reasons?
Is it a way to better reflect how they've changed over the story?
Do you use it as a way to pass the WoL baton on to a new character you can play as?
October 15, 2025 at 3:37 PM
I soft rebooted Nyssara/Isabeau because demure, shy ward hiding from her house was just not interesting or fun for anyone, including me, after the novelty wore off. Brash, party animal ward crashing out on purpose just to irritate her house is much more fun for all.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
Whats a change you recently made to your wol(oc)?
October 10, 2025 at 4:22 AM
I still think the next XIV x MonHun collab should be Bazelgeuse carpetbombing random zones like Deathwing pre-Cataclysm and if you disagree you hate fun
October 8, 2025 at 1:26 AM
I treat MSQ/WoL Mina as an AU. She's basically the same character, just with a few key life events that played out differently (first wife is definitely dead, married Aymeric before leaving for the east during SB, retired from the Bloodsands much earlier).
#wolqotd | #wolquestion

For those whose OCs are primarily Non WoL, how do you handle the existence of the MSQ? Do you have a separate WoL? Does your lil guy get to play pretend before resuming their regular life? Or do you just ignore it?
October 7, 2025 at 8:38 PM
Beyond useless, though she has many friends she could learn from, and would like to.

Fishing, however?

(Not pictured: the "Women Want Me, Fish Fear Me" hat)
October 6, 2025 at 2:29 PM
Mina's canon fighting style is literally "what if a Joshi Pro girlie also knew MMA?" There is a lot of strong style puroresu (and pro wrestling in general) in the way she carries herself in fighting arenas where the entertainment of the spectators matters as much as winning.
#wolqotd / #wolquestion

just asked this to a mutual but i'm curious for the general community:

what are your biggest real world influences on your wol? where do you draw most of your inspiration from?
October 6, 2025 at 10:51 AM
Mina and Lyana were both in Thanalan and saw it happen in the distance.

Nyssi was in Coerthas and saw it until Dalamud passed behind the mountains.

Everyone was a safe distance away. The rest of my cast was so far away they never noticed the impact.
#wolqotd how did they survive the calamity? where were they when dalamud dropped?
October 5, 2025 at 2:14 PM
Mina's parents are on her tribe's council and they're on good terms. Just haven't seen each other for 15 years or so. Doesn't know where they are. Silly nomad tribe!

Lyana and Una see their parents a lot. Healthy relationships.

The rest of my cast is orphaned or estranged. Woo.
#wolqotd Inspired by a question about children, let's flip the script a bit: We've heard of second-generation heroes, now tell me about your WoL's non-WoL parents! Where are they from, what do they do, how does your WoL get along or remember them?
October 5, 2025 at 2:09 PM
Wow I did this so long ago it was under my old handle, my answers have not changed though.
October 5, 2025 at 5:39 AM
The struggle for autonomy against circumstances outside their control.

Mina: Saya's apparent death and the resulting grief spiral (resolved)
Lyana: Her obligations to the Sultansworn
Brenn & Saya: Conscription into the XIIth Legion (resolved)
Una: Her binding to Myraelis
Nyssara: Her guardians
Sort of #WoLQoTD i suppose, then : what is the recurring theme in every single OC you put out ? The backstory element, general arc or personality trait that comes back in all of them, without fail ?
October 5, 2025 at 4:58 AM
Save one, all my XIV OCs know of at least one other. Mina is the common thread. Natsuki is the only one totally unrelated to the existing cast.
#wolquestion #wolqotd
How does/would your wol(oc) get along with your other ocs from anywhere?
