My ffxiv guys need backstories, so I started with the fella i probably play as the most: Riku!

He’s one of the few surviving members of Bahamut & Tiamat’s brood, and originally encounters Sora (@/nightmaresplit’s wol) before the fall of dalamud, trying to warn them of the monstrous incarnation of his father’s wrath inside the moon. Though he meets Sora for only a short window of time, he grows extremely attached to him and is absolutely devastated when none can find him after the Calamity rocks the land. He is utterly crushed at the loss, and much like his uncle, secludes himself in his grief for 10 years. Unbeknownst to him, Sora was simply plucked from the world by Hydaelyn and spirited away, then dropped back in Eorzea 10 years after Louisoix saved him from Bahamut’s wrath. During the events of Heavensward, Sora encounters Rikuraskath’a again - and even with his hazy memory, recognises him. Overjoyed at the return of his beloved friend, he vows to stay by his side through his adventures, and changes his form to an Au Ra to make travel easier.
The pair of them make a terrifying team in combat, and are able to fight even the most dangerous foes as a pair. Often times, during the worst of the combat, Riku sheds his Au Ra form and enacts his full power upon anything threatening his beloved companion.
They get married before Dawntrail btw ✨
