Hydaelyn Role-Players

It was great fun, and I had an absolute blast playing with Marice. Met a lot of new people, saw some familiar faces, and got to enjoy a different sort of event. Kind of glad I let Rhio sit this one out.

Thanks to everyone who attended and the Blue Skies folks for getting things organized and working in the wake of huge turnout!

as I was on my way to the event, a real life problem reared it's head and I had to log extremely early. I am very sorry I missed the event 

I had fun at this event! Thank you in particular to Mali, Xenedra, and Kari for taking the time to talk to a complete stranger and make me feel a little bit more welcome.

Oh that's who played those characters. Husband and wife I believe? I barely started to explore with the husband (I don't recall the name) before I had to go off on an afk that lasted... well the whole event

Well, in case it wasn't obvious I had a blast. Mali loves meeting new people to make sarcastic comments about! But really, that was a lot of fun, I got to meet a lot of new players and see some old players again, I loved it. I missed going to events like that in 1.0. Definitely going to try to make it for future events (and join the shell hint hint wink wink).

Marice was played by me, Malcolm was played by... well, Malcolm. Ironically, Malcolm is played by my wife. (And doesn't really care for posting on the board, but.)

I had a great time! I was playing Fulala Fula, if anyone remembers. Sorry if I didn't say much; I was fairly unprepared and the character I made on the spot is the type who doesn't really speak up unless annoyed. So... in retrospect, probably not a good idea for mingling purpose.

Thank you SO much to everyone who came out. Honestly, it was almost a bit overwhelming. We had over fifty people show up throughout the course of the day. Probably a good 30-40 at the start. It was nuts, suffice it to say, when there was just three of us to organize it all.

But once the ball got rolling, I felt like (at least for my group) things went incredibly smoothly! I had an absolute blast adventuring with the lot of you. Between the bandit attack, and the golems, and the Amalj'aa, and the massive sandworm..  ..fun stuff. (Seriously, love them FATEs. I had a feeling there was amazing potential for spontaneous roleplay, and they totally lived up to that expectation.)

I hope the other groups had just as much fun! And I enjoyed getting to know the lot of you at the after party event deal.

That being said, we'll be having yet another event next week! So, if you weren't able to attend this one, hopefully you can make the next! Thanks again to everyone who came out, and I hope you all enjoyed yourselves thoroughly~



I meant to take more screenshots this time around, but I completely forgot until we were almost done with the main portion of the event! Bummed I didn't capture all the exciting bits. I was just so drawn into the roleplay and action. If you took any, I'd love to see 'em!

Here's what I got though~

Had alot of fun, was there as Torvhan, looking foward to seeing you all agian.

Group 3 at the Burning Wall 





After Party

I love that I see myself in some of these screenshots. Because I'm an arrogant bastard like that! But it was a lot of fun, and I should add Endemerrin (Merri) to the group of folks that made it worthwhile. Though not a lot of people really acknowledged me, he was one - and Xenedra, and a couple others.

It's hard joining a group that's kind of already established itself awhile back, but I did feel very welcome. So thanks everyone for that.

I think I'm just gonna walk up to random RPers next time and be like, "Sup?"

^_^

I got a screenshot of a bit of the chaos before the event started rolling. It's centred on Dwynd, cus I liked how ze ended up perching rather than sitting on zir butt.

Woo I'm in screen shots. It was great and now its good to see the players behind the toons.  I would have talked more and to more people but I found it difficult to keep track of each chat as it moved by so fast. I'd be up for joining you guys if you would have me, as long as I don't get eaten by giant worms again.

Merri you are right about the fates value to spontaneous roleplay, was good fun having to react like that...

It was nice to share a bottle with Mali as well and try and sort out all the naming issues, Can I suggest we try and introduce our selves a little earlier in the event next time, made for some interesting dialogue for sure..

Some more pictues from the sand dunes, they just went on forever didn't they....

I like this one, its very posed considering it wasn't posed at all

Sadly, it's very in character for Dwynd to not bother with introductions; the FFXIV crowd is one of the few RP groups that assuming one knows someone's name because it's hovering over their head isn't a majority thing, which is kinda lovely.

I know the feeling with the screenshots, I especially like how Merri caught Mali mid /surprise in the second pic. XD Too perfect! Also, Khaze's pictures are the bomb. Not just because they have a bomb in them... >_>;

Merri and Xenedra have always been nice folks who try to play with everyone...even if there's fifty people at once. I've always respected that about them, even if it doesn't look like it because my character is a short-tempered something-something.

If you ever see Mali wandering around in the future, go ahead and start something. I'm usually bored anyway.

I actually turn off peoples hovering names in every game I play, I find it annoying I guess so I only see peoples names in chat or when I target them, A) it helps me learn who is who rather than relying on floating text and B) I like a really minimal UI so it looks prettier to me

Thanks Tivahlt, the bombs are cute aren't they. However Khaze is my mothers name...I have to deal with not having my own name enough with out being confused with my mother..
