Hey there! As the title suggests, I'm looking for connections for Domi, an adventurer completely new to both adventuring and also to the continent and its peoples. Naturally, I'd love to find some people who would be interested in bringing a new adventurer under their wing (or just taking advantage of a newbie's gullibility)

I'm not really sure what kind of long-term stuff I would like to have planned for Domi, to be honest. She sees herself as someone who would eventually grow to be a vital part of a guild, perhaps, going on adventures she could tell stories to her children and grandchildren about once she finally retires. So really I could see her doing well as a secondary character in someone else's grand storyline, particularly while she's learning to come into her own.

Uh, I don't really know what else to say here right now, but I'll be updating the wiki page and my directory page and this post little by little while I wait for the time limit before I can make the world transfer.
Hey there! Welcome aboard to Balmung! Big Grin Few things pop into mind right away as potential leads...

For one thing, Kasi is a highly experienced (~10 years) mercenary who runs jobs pretty regularly and doesn't have many misgivings about taking shady work, so if Domi takes a job to go off and do something, Kasi might show up as an obstruction to getting that job done. While Kasi could show up as an enemy, she eschews violence if she can help it- there's no, "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD" in there. Well, much- it's generally bad for business if you go around offing people all the time. 

Going off that, Kasi takes some time to warm up to non-Miqo'te, but she's someone that could train up-and-coming adventurers and mercenaries, both in terms of how to do business and how to actually fight (though she specializes in greatsword and lancework). It might take a few encounters to get to that point.

Aside from Kasi herself?

I know there are a few other newbie adventurers and mercenaries in ShroudLife (see signature below) that Domi could find kindred spirits in (and you'll most likely encounter Kasi through them as well). That's nothing to say about Domi being able to make contact with wilderness traders and other contacts along the road- adventuring will take her out of the cities, and it would help to be able to find the RP'ers out there! 

S'all I got for now! Hope that helps a bit- let me know if anything tickles!
I could see Domi and Kasi having some very interesting first encounters, especially considering their personalities. One idea I had involved being tasked with retrieval of a body and either a misunderstanding regarding the situation or finding it already being taken care of by someone else, though I'm not sure how well that would fit for Kasi to be on either side of that encounter. Still, they seem like the kind of people who would get along, at least, if you give them enough time to actually get to know each other.
The ShroudLife linkshell also sounds like a good place for me to start looking for people, thanks for the heads up on it.
Kasi certainly wouldn't shirk from that kind of work- entirely possible she could have made the body dead in the first place if she was doing a bounty on some outlaw (dead or alive, only he convinced her to be taken dead, or the like). She could just as easily show up to find Domi taking care of it too. In any case, I would be happy to have them meet sometime soon!
I'm part of an adventuring, treasure hunting group that would love to RP with more adventurers. We have a thread up on this board, I don't know how to link to threads, but we are Expedition Unknown. We RP as a group most the time but can be found individually as well around the QuickSands or walking Ul'dah, Gridania, and Limsa.

Can contact me via PM here or U'Neassa Sindre (me), U'assa Sindre, Talon Morrigan, in game if it sounds like something you'd be interested in Big Grin
Always happy to see another lala. :3 We're sadly not as common as you might expect...
I am generally available for RP on weeknights and subdays. Let me know and we can arrange a meeting.
Hey, I've looked over your thread, and would be interested in rp'ing some time.

The character sounds fun, and I'd be happy to meet her on any of these.  But Fyrilsunn and Jujuwai in particular come to mind...   The veteran soldier/adventurer and the man who basically makes his living making gadgets for a bunch of adventurers.    Both are super friendly characters, who would make friends with a stump. Also, coincidentaly, Fyrilsunn is opening his tavern for the second time this coming sunday!
