BerteauxB: /* Notable sin eaters */

[[File:Sin eater 5.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The sin eaters are beings in Final Fantasy XIV.]]

Like the voidsent are those warped by primordial darkness, the Sin Eaters are living beings warped by primordial light, with a majority appearing more angelic when compared to their voidsent counterparts. While the voidsent retain their sense of self with their vices magnified, the sin eaters are usually mindless monsters who act on instinct to kill others for aether or to convert them. Sin Eaters exist because the aetheric harmony of living creatures was shattered by an excess of Light aether, altering their natural forms and turning them into monstrosities without sentience that act on instinct.

==History==
The first sin eater to appear on [[The First]] was [[Eden]], the corrupted form of [[Mitron]]. He was an [[Ascian]] whose being was aspected towards Light when [[Ardbert]] used a blade of pure Light to kill him. [[Ardbert|Ardbert's]] sincere wish for the light to prevail against darkness acted akin to the tempering of a primal. [[Mitron]], now mutated into the gargantuan and mindless [[Eden]], used its power to stifle all Darkness, causing the [[Flood of Light]]. [[Minfilia Warde]] sacrificed herself to cease it from consuming [[Norvrandt]] by placing [[Eden]] in a deep sleep within a region of the global wasteland known as [[The Empty]].

The Sin Eaters created from those consumed in [[Flood of Light|The Flood]] invaded [[Norvrandt]] while the stronger ones sired new sin eaters from their victims by planting seeds of Light and corrupting the aether of their bodies. This is a gruesome process, for the victim's very being melts away from the light within them before they are enveloped by a feathery cocoon. A new sin eater then emerges, with some victims, such as [[Tesleen]], bearing only a few moments of self-awareness before succumbing to their new nature.

The most powerful sin eaters—dubbed [[Lightwarden]]s by the locals—are few in number and radiate aether to saturate every corner of their territory with Light. Lesser sin eaters are drawn to serve them and dissipate once the [[Lightwarden]] is killed. However, the [[Lightwarden]]'s essence merely transfers to the nearest living creature. Thus, the [[Lightwarden]]s always return from temporary death by making their host the next [[Lightwarden]].

The sin eaters have taken hold in [[Norvrandt|Norvrandt's]] regions as the [[Lightwarden]]s placed the land in perpetual light, preventing night from appearing for over a century. The sin eaters engaged in combat with the locals for years, slowly assimilating the populace and purging continents of sentient life.

The city of [[Eulmore]] and the reincarnations of [[Minfilia Warde|Minfilia]], who is revered as the [[Oracle of Light]], battled the sin eaters until [[Emet-Selch]] manipulated [[Vauthry]] to be made into a [[Lightwarden]]. When [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] were brought to [[The First]], [[Thancred|Thancred Waters]] became a sin eater hunter and took the current incarnation of [[Ryne|Minfilia]] as an apprentice.

The [[Warrior of Light]] arrives to [[The First]] and resolves to combat the sin eaters and slay the [[Lightwarden]]s. With their [[Blessing of Light]] from [[Hydaelyn]], the Warrior can contain the aether of the slain [[Lightwarden]]s, allowing night to return and forcing the lesser sin eaters to retreat en masse. Now assuming the moniker of "[[Warrior of Darkness]]", [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] traverse [[Norvrandt]] and slay every [[Lightwarden]], rekindling hope to the masses and bringing back the dark.

[[Vauthry]] takes offense to this campaign as his power is tied to his control over the sin eaters, but his forces cannot stop the [[Warrior of Darkness]]. With the final [[Lightwarden]] revealed to be [[Vauthry]] himself, the [[Warrior of Darkness]] free the citizens of [[Eulmore]] and force [[Vauthry]] to flee to [[Mt. Gulg]]. Uniting the people's of [[Norvrandt]], [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] ascend [[Mt. Gulg]] and slay the final [[Lightwarden]], [[Vauthry|Vauthry's]] true form of Innocence.

After absorbing [[Vauthry|Vauthry's]] Light aether, the [[Warrior of Darkness]] discovers they cannot contain the full amount of Light, threatening to turn into a powerful sin eater themselves. [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] forestall the change, allowing them to later confront [[Emet-Selch]] himself. Just when the [[Warrior of Darkness]] is about to be fully corrupted by the Light, their soul merges with their counterpart from [[The First]], [[Ardbert]], stabilizing them and restoring their aether.

After [[Emet-Selch]] and the [[Lightwarden]]s of [[Norvrandt]] are vanquished, [[Thancred]] and [[Ryne]] traverse [[The Empty]] in search of more [[Lightwarden]]s to restore [[The First]]. [[Ryne]] finds the vessel where [[Eden]] was placed, and using its aether, slowly restores balance to the land's aether.

Ever since, the sin eaters have been in decline in [[Norvrandt]], but stragglers remain that local forces continue to combat.

Sin Eater

BerteauxB: /* Notable sin eaters */

[[File:Sin eater 5.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The sin eaters are beings in Final Fantasy XIV.]]

Like the voidsent are those warped by primordial darkness, the Sin Eaters are living beings warped by primordial light, with a majority appearing more angelic when compared to their voidsent counterparts. While the voidsent retain their sense of self with their vices magnified, the sin eaters are usually mindless monsters who act on instinct to kill others for aether or to convert them. Sin Eaters exist because the aetheric harmony of living creatures was shattered by an excess of Light aether, altering their natural forms and turning them into monstrosities without sentience that act on instinct.

==History==
The first sin eater to appear on [[The First]] was [[Eden]], the corrupted form of [[Mitron]]. He was an [[Ascian]] whose being was aspected towards Light when [[Ardbert]] used a blade of pure Light to kill him. [[Ardbert|Ardbert's]] sincere wish for the light to prevail against darkness acted akin to the tempering of a primal. [[Mitron]], now mutated into the gargantuan and mindless [[Eden]], used its power to stifle all Darkness, causing the [[Flood of Light]]. [[Minfilia Warde]] sacrificed herself to cease it from consuming [[Norvrandt]] by placing [[Eden]] in a deep sleep within a region of the global wasteland known as [[The Empty]].

The Sin Eaters created from those consumed in [[Flood of Light|The Flood]] invaded [[Norvrandt]] while the stronger ones sired new sin eaters from their victims by planting seeds of Light and corrupting the aether of their bodies. This is a gruesome process, for the victim's very being melts away from the light within them before they are enveloped by a feathery cocoon. A new sin eater then emerges, with some victims, such as [[Tesleen]], bearing only a few moments of self-awareness before succumbing to their new nature.

The most powerful sin eaters—dubbed [[Lightwarden]]s by the locals—are few in number and radiate aether to saturate every corner of their territory with Light. Lesser sin eaters are drawn to serve them and dissipate once the [[Lightwarden]] is killed. However, the [[Lightwarden]]'s essence merely transfers to the nearest living creature. Thus, the [[Lightwarden]]s always return from temporary death by making their host the next [[Lightwarden]].

The sin eaters have taken hold in [[Norvrandt|Norvrandt's]] regions as the [[Lightwarden]]s placed the land in perpetual light, preventing night from appearing for over a century. The sin eaters engaged in combat with the locals for years, slowly assimilating the populace and purging continents of sentient life.

The city of [[Eulmore]] and the reincarnations of [[Minfilia Warde|Minfilia]], who is revered as the [[Oracle of Light]], battled the sin eaters until [[Emet-Selch]] manipulated [[Vauthry]] to be made into a [[Lightwarden]]. When [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] were brought to [[The First]], [[Thancred|Thancred Waters]] became a sin eater hunter and took the current incarnation of [[Ryne|Minfilia]] as an apprentice.

The [[Warrior of Light]] arrives to [[The First]] and resolves to combat the sin eaters and slay the [[Lightwarden]]s. With their [[Blessing of Light]] from [[Hydaelyn]], the Warrior can contain the aether of the slain [[Lightwarden]]s, allowing night to return and forcing the lesser sin eaters to retreat en masse. Now assuming the moniker of "[[Warrior of Darkness]]", [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] traverse [[Norvrandt]] and slay every [[Lightwarden]], rekindling hope to the masses and bringing back the dark.

[[Vauthry]] takes offense to this campaign as his power is tied to his control over the sin eaters, but his forces cannot stop the [[Warrior of Darkness]]. With the final [[Lightwarden]] revealed to be [[Vauthry]] himself, the [[Warrior of Darkness]] free the citizens of [[Eulmore]] and force [[Vauthry]] to flee to [[Mt. Gulg]]. Uniting the people's of [[Norvrandt]], [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] ascend [[Mt. Gulg]] and slay the final [[Lightwarden]], [[Vauthry|Vauthry's]] true form of Innocence.

After absorbing [[Vauthry|Vauthry's]] Light aether, the [[Warrior of Darkness]] discovers they cannot contain the full amount of Light, threatening to turn into a powerful sin eater themselves. [[The Scions of the Seventh Dawn]] forestall the change, allowing them to later confront [[Emet-Selch]] himself. Just when the [[Warrior of Darkness]] is about to be fully corrupted by the Light, their soul merges with their counterpart from [[The First]], [[Ardbert]], stabilizing them and restoring their aether.

After [[Emet-Selch]] and the [[Lightwarden]]s of [[Norvrandt]] are vanquished, [[Thancred]] and [[Ryne]] traverse [[The Empty]] in search of more [[Lightwarden]]s to restore [[The First]]. [[Ryne]] finds the vessel where [[Eden]] was placed, and using its aether, slowly restores balance to the land's aether.

Ever since, the sin eaters have been in decline in [[Norvrandt]], but stragglers remain that local forces continue to combat.

==Tips and Tricks==
* '''Marine Mahem''' is an interruptable and otherwise unavoidable [[large AoE]].
* '''Tidal Guillotine''' is an untelegraphed [[circle AoE]] around [[Petalodus]] sending those hit into the air and applying a Vulnerability Up. Move far away.
* '''Ancient Blizzard''' is an untelegraphed [[conal AoE]] at a random target, knocking back those hit and applying a Vulnerability Up. Get behind it.
* '''Waterga IV''' is an [[AoE marker]] on a random target applying a Magic Vulnerability Up to those hit to make them more vulnerable to the next one.

==Description==
{{Quotation|Basildere, Old Sharlayan Aetheryte Plaza, [[Old Sharlayan]]|''An Eorzean acquaintance of mine recently informed me of a most confounding incident. Evidently, [[Moonfire_Faire_(2020)|a shark walking upon two legs assaulted the site of an annual faire!]] Though it defies reason, I cannot but feel...excited.<br /> Why, you ask? As a matter of fact, a creature with the selfsame description appears in Nymian mythology─a creature known as the “petalodus.” I always found it an amusing thought, though of course the notion of a shark with ambulatory limbs beggars belief.<br /> ...Or does it? If we can verify that the petalodus once existed, I have my proof that certain Nymian myths must be founded in reality. And you shall have a charming story to share with your own friends, I'm sure.''}}
