Updated August 13, 2021 by Russ Boswell: Final Fantasy 14 is still going strong and has been steadily growing over the years, proving its worth in the MMO space. Players continue to flock to this impressive multiplayer fantasy release, thanks to its engaging combat, immersive story, depth of content, and detailed designs. Final Fantasy XIV character creation is almost as fun as the release itself, allowing players to come up with some truly inspired designs.
With the release of the Hrothgar and Viera in the Shadowbringers expansion, fans have even more tools to fiddle with in the Final Fantasy XIV character creator. Fans continue to craft and share their best designs from Final Fantasy XIV character creation, with players flocking to Reddit and other social media platforms to showcase their designs. Because of this, the follo🏅wing article has been updated to include some Viera and Hrothgar designs.
15 ꦫ An Elegant Cat Man 😼
The Hrothgar were a welcome and interesting addition to the world of Final Fantasy 14 with the release of Shadowbringers. Many players found themselves crafting brutish cat-like barbarians and warriors to wield heav𓂃y weapons and tear through the enemies of Eorzea. It's hard to deny that these hulking beasts possess a powerful aura, but that doesn't mean they can't look elegant.
🤪proves that even the mighty Hrothgar can look dapper with the right facial features and clothing 💞options. The silk shirt screams elegance and although he's still imposing, Lazybomber's "cat man" looks refined, intelligent, and suave.
14 A Healeജr In Training ♔
The Hrothgar weren't the only characters to show up in Shadowbringers. The fan-favorite Viera made their way to Eorzea and bunny-loving players couldn't get enough of their adorable designs. Many Final Fantasy fans will recognize the Viera thanks to Fran, one of🎃 the party members from Final Fantasy 12. Although rather elegant in their design, Fran proved that Viera were very capable warriors.
It seems they make great Healers too, or at least aspire to. posted this adorable look at their up-and-coming Viera healer, complete with "newbie healer gear." The༺ glasses are a fantastic touch.
13 The 🦹Redhead
Reddit user Nanase created a fiery redhead female for their custom character. They screenshotted the character’s upper body, putting the default outfit on display. What’s great is that the default outfit totally fits the character, especially her re൲d hair. The side-swept bangs and the specific hairstyle frames her face well. One should not overlook the piercing blue eyes and her interesting facial tattoo. Well done, Redditor!
12 𒀰 Which One Is The Player Character? 💛
This Redditor decided to be cheeky when postin𒐪g their custom character. Futanalyst threw up a screenshot on the FF14 subreddit. A character in a bright yellow suit, white gloves and wearing a baby Chocobo head is standing among a group of people. There seems to be a serious discu⛄ssion going on.
But one cannot help but laugh at the absurdity of the moment.🐻 The post is supplemented by its own title: “Itꩲ's time to play the game of ‘guess who's the player character.’” The design itself is so simple yet so beautiful. Bravo, bravo.
11 💞 Roegadyn Paladin 🐻
A warrior-based race, the Roegadyn are considered barbaric yet loyal to their kind. They are characterized by their burly appearances, large frames, and muscular builꦛds. A Reddit user was not only able to create an amazing look for their Roegadyn, but the character looks like it would fit right into the race.
DuckGod posted several screenshots of his Roegadyn character, who has a powder pale face, cyan eyes, and several braids throughout his hair. There is also a bandage on his nose, making him stand out from the crowd. There were also some screenshots of the character in Paladin armor taking on♐ enemies; 🐽pretty badass.
10 A🌠 Mature Miq’ote Male ꦍ
Ever wanted a cat boy or girl as a characterജ? FF14 fits your needs with the Miq’ote race. 🐓They are territorial people who are defined by their cat ears and tail. Usually, depictions of cat people are seen as younger, but one Redditor managed to make a Miq’ote look more on the adult side.
Ragnamar’s Miq’ote design seems more serious and rugged than other custom creations of Miq’ote. The Redditor accentuated forehead creases, simulating an angrier appearance. Unlike other creations, this Miq’ote also has fair facial hair cupping his jaw and chin. Aಞ great job!
9 The꧅ White Paladin 𓆏
Redditor Veerh created a stunning female Paladin for their custom creation. The character has stark white hair like snow, and it appears to be glowing a bit (or maybe that’s the background illuminating everything…). Either way, ✨she looks magical ဣwith the bright grey eyes. The character appears to be Hyur.
Complimenting her look is a majestic golden crown, which stands out fro𝓰m the rest of her pure white 🍌armor. She is dressed for battle and ready to serve!
Jurymast even complimented Veerh on their design.
8 A Very Modern-Looking Hrothgar 🌺
Final Fantasy 14 has always been a bit of an outlier when it comes to "design" aesthetics. Traditional to the seriꦏes' roots, the world of Eorzea features both medieval-inspired architectures, as well as modern additions that make use of electricity and even magically-imbued items. It's a land where players can ride around on Chocobos or in cars (thanks to Final Fantasy 15.
To betteꦯr expand on this point, created a Hrothgar and decked him out in modern-looking clothes (with a pretty cool haircut to match). The end result is a fantastical-looking "cat man" that looks like he came straight from a photo shoot.
7 ๊ A Butterfly Mark
There is beauty in simplicity, and Reddit user Sapphoslyrica delivered it. The community member shared two creations on the FF14 subreddit: two female Hyurs. One had short black hair with teal highlights, and t🦩he other had a simple haircut that frayed out at the ends. They both shared a butterfly mark on the left cheek, which serves a storytelling role for the characters, according ✅to Sapphoslyrica.
Sapphos originally posted it to choose w🍸hich character she should use in her playthrough. Some commentators gave their opinions, suggestions for improvement and even useful tips.
6 Lumielle
Twitter user Lumielle recreated her OC in Final Fantasy XIV. The appearance is simply stunning. They evened out the light tones of the hair, Au Ra horns and skin so that they do not conflict with each other. The specific style of horns Lumielle picked really accentuates the character’s facial features and𝕴 gentleness. The default outfit picked out also compliments the character’s personality and appearance.
The character’s name is Lumielle De’aura from the world of Exodus, according to Lumielle’s . Hopefully, Lumielle is still using her character to this d﷽ay! She’s a work of art!
