Hydaelyn Role-Players

Hello, guys!

Returning EU roleplayer here who's hoping to get the figurative "lowdown" on Omega's roleplaying scene. Currently levelling a Highlander on said server and very excited to get back into roleplaying, but having been gone for so long my networking is a little dry (read: non-existant).

So! Omega dwellers, I would very much appreciate it if you'd humour me and answer some questions that I have starting out!

1. a) What is the most active linkshell for roleplay on the server? I have read the Omega linkshell page and noted five? I think. My memory is terrible. Which one of these do people reckon would be best for a newbie to start networking?

b) Any recommendations on who to contact in said linkshells would be greatly appreciated, though not mandatory. 

2. Is there a most populated city-state for roleplaying? I've always had a love affair with Limsa Lominsa, but am more than willing to re-locate if hubs are elsewhere.

3. Are there many different types of roleplay on the server? By this I mean civilian, criminal, military, hybrid, etc. Just trying to get a gauge on the environment!

I'm intending on roleplaying Garth as either an archer or a blacksmith, depending on where roleplaying hubs are, etc. He's still very much in development and a bit of a blank slate RP-wise. Though, if you ever want to dungeon together in the future, he shall be SMN/SCH/BRD for PvE purposes! (Love my book-wielding madmen.)


Hope to roleplay with you all soon and look forward to any replies!
May you walk in the light of the crystal.

The RP network LS http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=21046 is a good place for general RP contacts. The Discord mentioned on that page is also very useful to join.

Heya! 
You've already been answered about the LS and pointed to the discord, but for the rest:

2- Right now there's no "most populated hub" afaik. Most open world rp right now follows the Tavern Roulette, which is three times a week and every time in a different place.

3- Indeed, there are even FCs specilized in those things. For instance a criminal one, a merchant/trading one, a military one, an adventurers one etc. From what I've seen characters are of all kinda really.

Hope to see you soon in game and on Discord!

Ah, excellent! Thanks a lot, guys. I'll set about joining the linkshell and Discord tonight. Look forward to seeing you in-game!
