Welcome! Even if I'm just another newcomer.

It's fun to hear that someone else is into the BJD hobby too :>

Welcome to the RPC, dear!

I'm sure you know this by now, but in ARR breast sizes are customizable, so having a character with a smaller bust is a possibility. You can still see them, unfortunately, but they'll be less noticeable.

FFXIV is a rarity in many MMOs in that, for the most part, armor from male to female is virtually the same. Most sets have normal coverage as well (minus harnesses and caotees : P). You should also be able to style your midlander hyur lady to look kind of boyish. There are a few hairstyles that lend themselves to it. Sounds like a solid start to me :>!
*whew* this is such news to hear! I just want some clothes that are actually clothes for her. She would SHANK ME prison style if I stuck her in a tiny harness or something so that's good Tongue 

plus I had to come out of hiding, ran out of ice coffee which forced me out into the light of day Wink lurrrrr durr   lol 


sorry it's still early and the coffee's not kicked in yet XD   O.o

Now if only my writer's block would go away for my character >.<.
Yay! see, this is why I was brave enough to try. because I realized i'm not the only one who's just beginning. plus the vets are such helpful folk that it's really an ideal situation.

On a side note: Your comic book comment caught my eye. I've been reading both Marvel and DC comics on a monthly basis since I was six years old (that'd be 1996.) As for X-Men, right now I'm following Uncanny X-Men, All-New X-Men, Wolverine, and Savage Wolverine. (I also follow Superior Spider-Man, Avenging Spider-Man, Batman, Justice League, The Avengers, and Captain America) Just thought I'd share that so you don't feel like an outsider.

Your character sounds interesting. I like this idea a lot. It's very Joan-of-Arc-meets-Pirates. On the RP experience note, a few of us don't have much RP experience. Personally, I have just enough to know what to do and what not to do. (My experience doesn't extend past Final Fantasy XI, LOTRO, and Champions Online, of which I RP'd for about a combined year. And Champions Online RP was virtually nothing but god-moding and meta-gaming. Every character did it with no exceptions. It sucked.) 

This is a long, drawn-out welcome, but that's not uncommon for me. Anyways, I hope you enjoy your stay in our wonderful little community, and I hope to RP with your character soon.

Thank you very much! I would really like to start reading comics again, but when I tried I found I had missed so much. Both in the comics as far as storylines and the business side as well. Their writers and such. I had no idea what is going on anymore. >.>  plus the butchering done to my beloved xmen by Hollywood really soured me to the whole title. Since my mid teens I've been much more into manga which isn't a bad thing per se, just different.

Give me classic age of apocalypse storylines anyday! and the dark phoenix saga is still the most touching love story I've ever read. I loved the Cyclops/jean grey/wolverine drama Tongue hehe

it's soo FUNNY that' u mention joan of ark, she was actually one of my inspirations! Well, milla jovovich as joan of ark in The Messenger which I recently saw again with Aulairet. turr hurr  Wink

I haven't come across some decent RP for a while now, but none the less, I'm looking forward to all the future FFXIV RP that's going to happen, hopefully with a lot of cross-linkshell interaction. -squeeee- Sounds so exciting! Moogle

Anyways, I apologize for the off track --- *gives cookie* Welcome again! Big Grin
Cookies you say?? *takes gratefully and noms*

and I understand exactly what you mean, I haven't been hopeful about RP for along time it feels like.  very exciting!  Bouncy

This sounds a little too familiar. *standing up from his chair, the silver cross around his neck is clearly visible. He takes a small bow towards her*

Welcome to the group. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask. My experience is mostly forum roleplay but I have gotten into in game-ish RP as of late.
Oh? *gives a polite nod in return*

Do you collect BJD's too?  :o

let's nerd out together if so!  XD haha

Hehe yes I figured that I wouldn't be able to hide them completely in game. most games don't have very flat chested female characters. :/  Actually, the syllvari in GW2 could be very petite but I just couldn't RP one cause I couldn't relate to their lore. /sigh
but that's where imagination comes in to play! Yay Big Grin 

Thank you for the warm welcome GeekHeartMoogle

Exploration of gender identity, even in something like RP, is always super interesting to me. I look forward to reading more about your character.

Her struggle with gender identity and coming to terms with feminine strength are going to be main storylines with her. Not the only ones, I don't want her to become one dimensional or anything, but it's something I can relate to so i'm going to explore it in my RP  Thumbsup
