RE: What do you ride? - Chika Ito - 08-20-2014

Chika rides two mounts;


Runt is her Chocobo. When she was out hunting one afternoon she found a nest with a baby Chocobo in it, and the mother's body was close by lifeless. So Chika picked up the little runt of a Chocobo, and took him back to her tribe. He got his name for when she had found him he was very small. Her relationship with him mingles between love and hate. Runt is fiercely loyal to Chika, and extremely protective of Chika's kids. Especially the baby. His loyalty, at times, is pushed aside when he sees butterflies. Butterflies are his favorite thing in all of Eorzea! Sometimes Chika wonders if he lacks a brain, because he isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. What he lacks in intelligence he makes up for in heart. When she is having a bad day Runt will stick by her side constantly, unwilling to leave her.

And then there is;

Ryker is her Coeurl. Chika's family prides itself on raising Coeurl kittens, and breeding the Coeurl when they become of age. Ever since his birth Chika has taken care of him. Holding him, bathing him, even bottle feeding the kitten. Hand raising him ensured that he was only loyal to her, and it created a close bond with the overgrown feline. Unlike Runt, Ryker is highly intelligent. Often can be seen by the look in his eyes when he is trying to work something out. Much like the Chocobo this Coeurl is overly protective of Chika, and the kids.

RE: What do you ride? - Lillith Cale - 08-20-2014

Lillith has one mount, and that is her trusty Chocobo Kainami, over whom she gets very defensive.

Kainami is a bit of a...special Chocobo. The Miqo'te came across it while entering the stables to receive her company mount. The troublesome chocobo had broken free of it's handlers and ran full tilt into Lillith, sending her sprawling to the ground. Instead of continuing in it's persuit for freedom, Kai stopped, leaned down and pulled Lillith back to her feet by tugging on her tunic with it's beak. It then proceeded to simply stare at her.

Lillith stared back, and found that this mount seemed to be suffering some type of disability, while one eye stared straight back at her, the other went askew, looking in a completely different direction. This chocobo was walleyed.
 
"Kweh." It uttered in a completely monotone voice.

The handler of course made a big fuss over the incident and tried to get Kai back into it's stable but the big bird kept stepping away from the handler, each time ducking behind Lillith. Laughing, she began to stroke the mount's back and insisted she would take this steed for her own. This, of course, lead to several hours of the handler explaining why it was a very, very bad idea. Lillith didn't find a reason for worry however, and dismissed his warnings, taking the mount for her own.

Much to her surprise, Lillith learned that Kainami was fast, fast enough that even with the disability it could keep up with normal chocobos, and could even go neck and neck with a Chocobo bred specifically for speed. On the down side however, Kai appears to be incredibly simple minded, prone to flopping on the ground and rolling about in the dust, walking funny, standing and staringly blankly with it's tongue hanging out of it's beak, "petting" people by flopping it's head against theirs, and chewing on hair. Kai also seems to only be able to make one sound, a very flat, mono toned Kweh.

Kai has a particular fondness for the hair of one Meta Xi, who has a slight aversion to the strangeness of the bird. 

Despite this however, Lillith is fiercely loyal and protective of her Chocobo, whom in term is just as protective over it's Master, often rushing to defend the archer should she find herself in a situation she can not handle.

I don't have anything to ride Sad I like to jump everywhere! Sometimes people don't understand why, but I think it's fun!

RE: What do you ride? - LiadansWhisper - 08-23-2014

Liadan has a special relationship with her Chocobo, Courageous, that she was issued by the Adders.  She named him Courageous because she sees in him the courage that she doesn't see in herself.  And recently, Courageous may have saved her life.  :S

He's way better at fighting than she is.

RE: What do you ride? - T'shina - 08-23-2014

T'shina has a couerl.

A blind couerl.

She had watched the couerl pack/pride in her travels and took interest in one of the older couerls that seemed to be pushed aside by the others. He had trouble getting some of his meals but got by on what he was able to get with his handicap. Shina then coerced "Percy" to her with fresh meat and would talk with him and after some time and effort, the blind couerl was her traveling companion!

Yes, yes he did...Chocobo

RE: What do you ride? - Yangh - 08-23-2014

Yangh rides... just a regular Chocobo. He's small, knows a tiny bit of healing, wears no armour, is mostly useless. Nothing special about him at all!

She rented him one day... and he simply just stayed!

Also, Erik for president.

A7: In FFXIV, Ishgard is the place that breeds and raises chocobos, and they only export the males at the moment. The “Chocobo Forest” In the older FINAL FANTASY series games was made into something a bit newer, and it won’t exactly be like it was in the past.

So now you know. ALL YOUR CHOCOBOS ARE MALES. No exceptions!
