Show Your Roe: Bara Gallery

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0e5EYC3qgo]

A few weeks after FFXIV came out, I unearthed a thread aptly titled “Show You Roe.” It was pretty straight forward, just upload a picture of your Roegadyn and be on your merry way. Until you dig deeper and realize certain people with certain preferences posted their characters in more.. provocative poses.

So I tried to do something in a similar vein to Orctober; create a month long event called Roevember to celebrate the most underappreciated race in the game. Just look at the statistics, 7% of all players play as a Roegadyn. Unfortunately Roevember fell apart as everyone is spread out on different servers. Trying to get a group together was quite challenging. But I’ll try again next year, firstly by promoting several groups.

Bara / Bear Linkshells and Free Companies

(Be sure to contact the group masters to join the Linkshell/Free Company)

Just keep in mind that it’s not a requirement to play as a Roe in any of these groups.  Since my characters exist across several servers, it would be super swell to assemble a group of people for a photoshoot in the summer. If you’d like to add your group to the list, please comment, and I’ll try to meet up with you during the summer event.

With that squared away, on to the pictures!

Roegadyn Bikini

The two characters are loosely based on the Dom/Sub dynamic. They’re not at a high enough level to wear appropriate gear to match their personalities. Eventually when vanity slots roll in, I can find them a permanent outfit.

Roegadyn Bikini Sub

During the Summer Event, they released these snazzy bikini armor. Unfortunately, they’re untradeable and you can’t buy them in Auction Houses. Dammit Square!  Aside from that, their silvery design makes it an accessible outfit that goes with everything. Yet they have level 1 stats, making them impractical for actual gameplay.

Iron Scale Fingers Roegadyn

Around level 23 you can acquire Iron Scale Armor, which when dyed grey, matches the bikini pretty well.

Red Roe

Hellsguard Roe

On the flip side, is my Hellsguard Roe, who’s playing on the supposed Gay server of FFXIV. He’s supposed to be the more serious of the two and has this intense look on his face most of the time.

Roe Costa Del Sol

And thanks to his name, I get to meet other bara lovers as well!

Roegadyn Christmas

During the Christmas Event, three of us got together and started posing around the Christmas Tree. All that noise drew in some cheering fangirls as well.

Roegadyn hot tub

FFXIV recently added housing, which caused all sorts of drama with its ridiculously high prices. The guild I’m in amazingly had enough to afford one and filled every corner of the basement with hot tubs.

In that same patch they upgraded the /doze emote to perform a new sleeping animation on beds. Obviously, nobody is going to abuse said animation for their own amusement.
