Hey folks! I realize I'm new around these parts, but I had an idea for a roleplay for my character that I was looking to share with you!
According to the lore, a completed map of Eorzea came about only 70 years ago. It stands to reason that if a completed map of the entire land took so long to put together (due to war and whatever else), the land would still be lacking an encyclopedia of knowledge concerning the whole of Eorzea. In the pursuit of knowledge, my character (Ian Starling, Besaid) would travel the land, doing research and putting together this encyclopedia. Of course, being a fragile and clumsy researcher (and only one man, no less), he would need plenty of help (incorporating other players in various roleplaying events). His research could also be posted online (where exactly, I haven't thought too hard on) to provide other players with a practical (and hopefully amusing) source of information about the game. Of course, I've only just started and my knowledge of this game is pretty lacking, so if there is anything I've failed to take into account, let me know.
In fact, let me know what you think anyway. I would appreciate some input!
