Howdy, strangers. - PatchThursday - 04-05-2014

What's up guys? I'm new-ish to ARR, I've spent a couple months with it on and off and I'd like to start playing more, as well as maybe find opportunities to RP in a group or otherwise.

--MMORPG background
I tried WoW some time ago for a couple months but really didn't dig into it.

--RP experience
No formal in-game RP experience but I'm largely familiar with the format for the most part.

--Character ideas/info
Patch Thursday is a Midlander sellsword who spent a large portion of time with a small band of adventurers, until they were scattered by the Dalamud catastrophe and their memories largely lost. Now, with little to his name he resides in Ul'dah making modest coin, doing odd jobs and scraping to get by. His original purpose and only real family forgotten, he bides his time hoping to one day piece together the past and track down his old companions-- if they survived.

--How did you learn about the coalition?
Honestly I just stumbled across it looking into the RP aspect having just recently joined Balmung.

--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
Mostly light-to-medium, I'm not incredibly elaborate with lore but nothing obviously too derivative or lore-breaking. That being said I'd love to find a cool group of people to do some adventuring with as well as be a part of a more in-depth RP. 

--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc
I'm in a band and also have a part-time job so my hours are kind of fluid but I'm fully willing to spare the time to get into this.

Anyways, it's cool to be here. Thanks guys!

Have to say, love the name! Welcome to the RPC, give me shout if you're on Balmung

Hey there! Ul'dah is definitely pretty hopping, so I doubt you'll have much trouble finding some great people there to rp with. That said, if you find yourself having difficulties finding people in game, don't hesitate to find some Ul'dah characters here in the wiki or Balmung directory and give their players a poke! And check out the events, too, there's a ball coming up that you could definitely use to get your character acquainted with others.


RE: Howdy, strangers. - PatchThursday - 04-05-2014

Ah, thanks for the warm welcome guys! 

Apl_Juice- Haha, many thanks! I like yours as well. I'll be on in a couple hours most likely and I will definitely give you a shout.

Zhavi- Thanks for the tips, I'm absolutely going to check out this ball you mention, I browsed the wiki earlier and there's an amazing amount of info there, awesome suggestion.
