Welcome to Hope Abandons Me, a webshrine for Zalbag Beoulve from Final Fantasy Tactics. Made in the style of mid 00s fansites, this shrine is my attempt at doing fandom in a way that borrows from some the trends of that era I miss: individual fans making and curating their own space online, analyses that take place outside of the content-driven world of social media, and aesthetics that lean into the power of custom Photoshop curlicue brushes.
Please feel free to click through my thoughts on my absolute favorite character from this fantastic game and to look at the bounty of content I've assembled here in relation to this awful national hero turned zombie.
