And as Kage said, only members of a specific, NPC race can be WHM and in the WHM storyline your character is kinda "the chosen one," the first non Padjal WHM who has to jump through hoops to even prove to the Padjal that you're worthy of the title. Very disappointing as I originally wished for Faye to be a WHM IC. :<
yeah, I know right? I've never been able to RP a white mage in a proper FF setting before, and here I thought I'd be able to, but NOPE. )': I suppose if an FF RPers community on Tumblr (canonical ones from the non-MMO FFs I mean) would accept OCs there would be that, but I've never really been very fond of FFs before XIV with the exception of IX so it's like... why would I want to do that, lol. I don't even really enjoy the characters in most FFs. TWEWY's characters, now THEY are where my jam is -- no zetta silly puns intended, since I believe it was you who said they enjoyed TWEWY as well. :'D
I suppose I could always have an NPC in the backstory of this character's, but I don't think I'll plan on that until I get to the proper place in the game's story, haha. that's the only thing that bothers me about MMO roleplaying, really, as opposed to forum and text and etc roleplaying -- your character doesn't really get the chance to match up with the game's written storyline. (if someone were to try to do that, it would invalidate too many other RP characters, wouldn't it... and even if it didn't conflict with anyone, I don't think any MMO RPing community would trust or even want to RP with someone who is potentially OP like that.)
though I guess it's more that good story writing doesn't hold the same set of ideals as good RPing -- that's probably where the disconnect really comes in, haha.
ANYWAY rambling aside, yeah, let's RP sometime! I don't know when I should sign in to FFXIV, but would you have a time today or tomorrow to RP with me on Faye?
