Thank you all, for the kind welcome. It's nice to feel so at ease around here. I did not expect I would have things in common with anyone here. To hear that I did is a good sign, and it's quite lovely.
I appreciate the compliments on my background! I was wondering if I was typing too much for an introduction... hehe. I usually ask myself that question - this time, I decided to wing it and just say everything all at once. ^^;
I could say right now that the ideas are rudimentary at this point in time. I have the personality I still have to fiddle with, though I'm about 80% done with that thought process. The rest has to do with, getting familiar with the lore. I do have a question, is there a timeline of sorts that I can look up? I know that, reading history is the most efficient way I can learn the way of the world quickly.
It's a good thing I padded that fence, because I've been sitting on it for a while, in regards to what race I'd like to be. I really want to see character creation before I make a decision. And I still have to look up lore stuff regarding race origins, though I can already say that if I decide to go with Miqo'te.. I'm definitely going to be avoiding the kitty trope. He'd be more.. sophisticated. I'm thinking about having him be a writer himself, though I still want to mix in family history and, fighting prowess. I'm not really sure what the soup tastes like that. It sounds a little bit like a Samurai? How they paint, and write, and yet still fight, and I love the SAM class, but.. I'm not seeing him as a Samurai in the sense of, the warrior mentality. I see him more as .. someone who fights because he must? That's why I want to make his family name very .. involved.
Asking why is a great philosophy. About anything, really. And trying to understand others, trying to project empathy. It sounds like you emphasize imagery. That is something I also try to focus on. To paint a picture with every post, I'd always say... if you can't close your eyes and imagine the scene, the moment, as if in a movie or a manga, I'm doing something wrong.
Sparring allies, hm? Sounds wonderful. I don't expect that many RP'ers to many interested in PVP, but conflict is a very significant part of life, one must at least acknowledge it.
The player housing instancing system sounds like a dream job if we can manage to coordinate RP neighborhoods. Believe me on that from SWG. It's unreal how fun it can be.
And wonderful to meet you too! <3
Ho mai gewdness. :3
Start RP'ing when you are very young and it becomes more like a lifestyle then a hobby, y'know?
And yes, I must see character creation now! Hackers, go time!
Same!

Guys, I gotta admit, I have a huge problem fitting in with groups. I just can't seem to find my niche, so to experience you guys having things in common with me and everything.. it really means something to me. Thank you.
I hope I can be friends with all of you too! Good news is you don't have to wait until ARR to see me, as I'll be around on these forums.

Gospel Gestalt Wrote:It also sounds like you got a lot in common with my style of RP too! I always enjoyed being the watcher type. One of my character's biggest features is wanting to explore the world and try to understand why people do the things they do. Something about taking in the beauty of the surrounding area and then expressing it in an IC form has always been fun for me.

Gospel Gestalt Wrote:As for the style of gameplay. I can't really say I'm much of a PVP person. I've always went towards hardcore PVE (Strong bosses and dungeons etc.) but that definitely doesn't mean I won't jump in and try it. Hopefully we can become sparring allies or perhaps even enemies. I'm also quite looking forward to the player housing and making an RP hub of sorts. However, it does seem that a lot of players have this intention too, so maybe the chances of a player housing instance designed for RP may not be too far out of the question with a little bit of coordination.

And wonderful to meet you too! <3
Kerr Wrote:Oh my goodness. I hope we can be good friends! It sounds like we have a lot in common. I too started to RP when I was very young and prefer an IM/paragraph style of writing. I'm also deciding between a male miqo'te and male hyur, though the leaning is strongly with the miqo'te. I guess we won't know until we get more details.
