love it when games let dug stand in his proper spot next to sif @drunkbard.bsky.social (back and to the left)
don't mind shadowheart. god's special little princess just wanted to be involved
Sif stands in the foreground, her arms crossed. Dugald stands in his proper place behind her and to the left. He looks very tired.

A shoebill security guard stands at ease in a button up shirt with a coral-colored tie and dark blue pants beside an equally serious hyur in a light blue cap and staring directly into your unclean soul.

and a second, just a test, screenshot for the sake of figuring out posing the flying particles
A raen woman, Amesha, flying with assistance from her nouliths. The PoV is behind her with the sun dramatically casting a shadow around her.

when a weapon farm sends me out to do fates for atmas, it gives me flashbacks and makes me equip black mage with the intention to burn down everything i see.

Two duskwight women stand in a night scene. They are the same woman but in opposing outfits. The one on the left wears a bright, pure white outfit with glowing green crystals. She holds a staff of white, gold, and blue. It is lightless. The one on the right wears a dark, deep black outfit with glowing purple crystals and flames. She holds a staff of black, red, and purples. It glows with a wicked aura.

A lot of my febhyurary shots consisted of me editing out disembodied dug heads. I saved all of them for comedy purposes.
A hyuran man jumping off a cliff into water below. A disembodied head of the same man stares directly at the camera with no expression.

Defining me, Motherfolk. It's been in his playlist for so long... Though it was hard to choose between this and a few others that have always been dear to me.
A hyuran man sits atop a grave as four other identical hyuran men wait around him, looking away from him and the camera. From left to right: A man in a brass blade uniform looks forlornly downwards with his arms folded in his lap. A man obscured except for a black mask and closed eyes. A man in a wood wailer uniform, his hand holding the mask covering his eyes as he looks downwards. A man in an outfit typical of a lominsan rogue, his eyes just barely out of frame as he casually leans backwards. Two verses from "Defining Me" by Motherfolk reading: I'm not sanctified and I'm not free There's no love that's come to rescue me Bend my heart and even break my knees But it's these chains that are defining me Sin is all I've been able to wield It's been my sword and even been my shield And death O' death is my only home A grave so familiar I could call it my own

continued testing for action shots and figuring out how to do the fancy border thing.
also want to do more things with ice particles but lighting is hell.

A duskwight woman in armor and bearing a greatsword made of ice squares off against a stone golem. The sword extends off the frame of the image as she winds up a swing while recovering.

star wars meme of izhakke and hani debating the morality of killing Rhuli'a kanjun. they choose right. dugald walker, tallest hyur alive, looks down on Cat Egrine who was cursed with being even shorter than before. sif beats the shit out of dug in RP on the regular. picture evidence.

A duskwight woman standing in the woods at night. She bears a glowing white-gold cane and a glowing greatsword of ice while she looks angrily towards something off screen. A hyuran woman and raen woman hug each other tightly. Neither woman's face is visible, both of them burying their faces into each other. A hyuran man stands at the base of a structure, appraising its height. His boot rests against the base while he rests a hand on the wall itself. A hyuran man carries a lalafellin woman on his arm. He looks at her with a questioning expression while she looks at him with an expression of nonchalance.

Dug - The theme of a recurring wandering enemy. Worn out, unimpressive, old acoustic guitars... that transition into something each time you encounter him.
Let's pretend he's that cool.
Easy: Battle Theme #1 - Yasunori Nishiki
Challenging: Wind Fang - Chikayo Fukuda
Dire: Vagrant Zaveid - Gō Shiina
A hyuran man sits on a hitching post, staring out into a Turali town. His hands are folded in his lap as he seemingly waits for someone.

wanted to do something with the idol outfit. ended up just taking this in the yard.
#shroudandsands
A Raen woman dressed in an outfit that mimics an idol. It is dyed a deep metallic blue on the highlights and is black everywhere else. It is dark and she is lit from behind by candlelight. Her eyes are cut off by the top of the frame while she holds a peace sign in front of a slight smile towards the camera. Her legs are crossed with one foot pointed towards the camera.

i didn't like what rise did to horn but the bugs were cool.
A hyuran man wearing armor styled after Monster Hunter World's Odogaron armor is falling towards a distant ground. He extends out his left hand to throw a Wirebug from Monster Hunter Rise to catch himself.

Sif & Dug. Smush their names together until it sounds bad. Sounds like either a disease or an insult. That's their other ship name.
Sug.
A hyuran woman grips the railing of a metal fence cage in the foreground. She is visibly winded. Just behind her is a hyuran man, in the air, in the midst of drop kicking her while she isn't looking.

second to last day lads we're phoning it in
A hyune man sits on a bench in Solution 9's residential area and stares at the skyline in the distance. He is visibly slumped backwards and tired.

forbidden lore is that dug started as a lalafell which then became my girl Sonono while he became Some Guy.
A hyuran man confusedly stares and points at a lalafellin woman who is resting on his arm. She smiles down at him with a hand out mid-shrug. They share the same deep green eye color, but little else.

sorry hani, this is the real reason dug wanted to go to tural.
A hyuran man looks up at an exceedingly tall stone tower, shielding his eyes from the sun. He's now at the top. The sun has barely moved in the sky.

Boss.
#shroudandsands #gpose #ffxiv
A hyuran man kneels in front of the camera, his arms behind his back and restrained by an elezen woman behind him with a fistful of his hair. She is dressed in Twin Adder Yellow. She holds a black, metal mask in front of his face while he looks up towards her disdainfully, the rest of his face hidden by the mask. She has a satisfied smile on her face.

Quest.
#shroudandsands #gpose #ffxiv
A weary wanderer looks towards a wrecked machina.
A hyuran man sits on the railing of a bridge in the gyr abanian fringes. In the background is a crashed garlean airship that he seems to be staring towards. A quest marker floats above his head.
