The more you look into it, the more everything looks AI. There's a thread in XIVshitpost that has people sort of timelining everything. I personally don't care what side of the isle you lean on politically, but she (likely he) is doing their best to pull the "based girl" thing everyone deals with.

That over priced patreon for some AI stuff is pretty crazy too. If you know where to look, finding the patreon dump isnt that hard. Its pretty disappointing, even the in game character porn posted is just AI. Its not hard to make that stuff in game. The entire persona is likely just a big scam.
