    I'm dumb and forgot to put both the link to Mr Coddlestone's video of the special legacy intro and the link to my ASMR channel in the description. It has been fixed and the links can now be found there! Sorry about that one.

    It could be argued that the Warrior of Light is so apt at learning the skills of a Job because they have eight lifetimes and additional souls worth of memories to pull from to learn with. Personally, I feel that in every age of the Source when 'a hero rose up to stop the evil Ascians' that might have been 'our' WoL. Possibly failing because the rejoinings happened and reclaiming a part of their soul in the process. We may be winning now because of attrition. Our soul/self having finally gotten strong enough to tip the scale. The Ascians do note that Zodiark only needs one rejoining to break free, too...

    One thing I love is the developing sass and wit of the WOL. Around Shadowbringers they really give you more dialogue options and the stuff from the Alliance Raids especially are hilarious and gives so much personality to your character.
  • What about the WoL’s aversion to drinks offered to them? Wouldn’t that count as a minor aspect of their personality since it’s seems unaffected by personal choice?
  • @washulis
    In Stormblood, just before Bardam's mettle, as a male au'ra, Hien has a line that says something along the lines of "you are not from this land, but your ancesters were" thus emplying that au'ra WoL comes from a tribe (or just parents) that left Azim Steppe at some point, similar to Sigurds tribe. I haven't done dark knights story to know if there are other interesting tidbits to add though. Just an interesting observation on WoLs past. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other little details for other races in specific areas.

    5.x spoiler warning Great video! Though I feel there was a missed opportunity to explain why Elidibus turned into the Warrior of Light? I know that confused me for a while lol
  • @tomefilho3902
    What about Heavensward? What Thorden/pope witness when he confronted the WoL??
  • @Zoeila
    The idea that azem rejected the summoning of hydaelyn is something the community states as fact that vexes me. WE DO NOT KNOW THAT FOF SURE! We only at the time of that recording they hadnt answered yet. And that there was a period of coexistence befofe zodiark forced hydaelyns hand.

    The guy with the black hair is the warrior of light, not all your characters
