I collect lizards, but only in FFXIV. She/Her, early transition, FFXIV casual. Valerie Amethyst @ Faerie, Aether
I made a new friend who managed to convince me to play Crystalline Conflict with them, it became really fun once I found my niche, I've even been getting some mounts through it!

Finally managed to collect the whole onion family! Luck works in mysterious ways, I somehow managed to get the adenium from a coffer before I ever saw the peerifool...

I did not expect to win a mount in a casual Halloween FC get-together, but I can't say I'm disappointed!

My newest best friend, and unfortunately, probably the only one that will ever follow me from now on; Malone!

I hated the diadem grind, but it was so worth it, the little guy is just so perfect!

I have finally gotten god enough with VPR to treat it as my main DPS class, which means new glam to celebrate!

It's such a bummer VPR doesn't have that much weapons yet, I would have KILLED for some mandervillous VPR blades.

My FC held a halloween gpose contest, so obviously, I had to go with my all time faves, Ramona Flowers and Scott Pilgrim!

I originally only meant to enter Ramona, but I felt no one would get the reference, so I had to dress up a catboy to come and help!

While mount farming, a friend gifted me Titania's axe, so OF COURSE I had to make a new glam to celebrate! Still one of my favorite glams I've made so far, took a lot of grinding, too!

I found out that a certain shoebill stork can appear in your quarters in ShB, so I had to have a staring contest (he won)

Wedding selfie with a catboy friend! The theme was black and red, as you could likely tell!

Captured here is the moment where I found out how the automatoise flies. (it spins, like, VERY fast).

I got a bit too eager to (purposefully) share my tankbusters with fellow FC members during map farms one day, so I was made to wear the dunce cap for a few weeks, which means all my cute summer event glams had to sport the hat as well. It was nice to burn it afterwards though.

I was gifted a shoebill stork, so obviously, I need to honor it with a somewhat creepy pic.

My first attempt at a profile picture, mostly made for my FFXIV channels, but I like the look of it, so I saved it!

To celebrate my friend winning the housing lottery, I snuck in and burned his bookcase.

This is the part where I finally started saving my gposes on my computer, rather than screenshotting and pasting it in 3 separate discord channels.

Can I get a "Good job, Val"?

Turns out I liked the sleeveless look of my RPR glam so much, I recreated it on my WAR in different colors, and took a little glamour shot in Vanguard to highlight it.

My thirst for glam ever unquenched, I set my eyes on the DoL and DoH glam for that patch, a week before the new one came out. I was determined to gather and craft everything myself, and so I did. I will never do that again, I have omnicrafter friends who enjoy it more than I do

Shortly after maxing out RPR and realizing it still wasn't for me, I jumped into VPR after hearing people saying it was "too easy". So obviously, I needed a new glam, and where else could I go for cute glam other than the Nier raids?

You can see I started trying a little harder. I'm still far from a good gposer, but there is still a minimum of effort at making them look good. I was proud of that glam, even though I barely play RPR.

Speaking of porxies, another one of my favorite mounts, mainly because they gave the cutie the crown he deserves.

This is the first shot where I discovered you could play with depth of field. I really just wanted to show off my adorable porxie companion, whom I had sleeping in my minion box for the longest time, until someone told me he could perch on your shoulder. We became instant besties.

This was around when I started leveling my crafters, I had them all up to 50 at the time, which is why I had burned out for a year and a half, but with a new, much better crafting venture; I was determined to level them all, which I did!

Would you look at that! She found out how to turn off that pesky fps counter!

I swear to god, even unsynced, the rathalos mount grind was truly, well, a grind. I even made a quick glam for it, which I promptly never used again.

Here's another one, this time with a gift from a new friend from a new FC I had just joined. I had been in the FC for a total of two weeks and she dropped the mount in my hands because mentioned I had been grinding gil for so long to buy it. Still one of my faves.

I then immediately found out that the Mandervillous weapons matched the vanguard armor a LOT more, so I hopped on that grind. Thank god they were relatively easy to get.

And this is when I was going through dawntrail and stumbled onto the magnificent Vanguard set of fending, I felt so badass tanking in that set.
