RE: Characters You Will Never Play - C'kayah Polaali - 05-14-2015

Name: C'hanna Tia
Concept: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channa_%28Buddhist%29
Race: Miqo'te Seeker of the Sun
Quote: "Such is the way of life"

Serious students of the Elezen Diolor know that he comes from a powerful, wealthy family. C'hanna was a servant of his, who drove him around in a chariot before Diolor formulated his philosophy. After Diolor renounced everything, C'hanna became a philosopher of the Genesene school. C'hanna frequently behaves in a superior and overbearing manner to the other students of Diolor, owing to his long association with the Elezen.

  • Never contributes to group expeditions outside of remarking how much he is reminded of his dark past.
  • Shows absolutely no exertion or emotion in combat.
  • Does not react to male characters.
  • Has no sense of perspective.

I make so many alts that will never see the light of day. I have two alts I log into on occasion, but as soon as I start playing I think "I could be doing things on the main" and just... don't.

Of course, none of them are thought-out enough for this exercise, I think, even the two I occasionally play with, but I share the feels. So sad that they will forever lump in the shadows.

I had one a few years ago based on the little people from the movie Time Bandits. Upon coming back to FFXIV, I've decided "Fuck it. Let's roll."

He's become my main. Don't even care.

Stutters. A lot. Can be very grating at times, but also very endearing at others. She doesn't have this problem with people she's close to.

These traits are kind of a pet peeve of mine. Seeing mental illnesses being played a "cute" is frankly kind of disturbing. However, a lot of people here have made sarcastic entries, so if yours is as well, kudos!

Female characters. Non-humans. People not named Otto Vann.

I laughed pretty hard at these in particular. I see it too often!

Social anxiety is a mental illness? o.o I... didn't know that, I just avoid people whenever I can IRL (and sometimes even on the net, I can't stand being on any sort of call with more than one person), but I'll talk if necessary, even though I really don't wish to.

On topic:

Mr. Ladies' man: Gets all the girls no matter what happens, even if he gets drunk and pukes on them, somehow they'll still swoon over him like he's the best man in the world.


RE: Characters You Will Never Play - ProvaDiServo - 05-14-2015

I could never play a super rich guy because In game I'm dirt poor with no money to reflect a wealthy person's wardrobe or budget.

Roll up at a date auction with straight up allagan tin pieces.

Still would be funny though.  XD

In a less insane vein, I wouldn't mind crafting Kali Kalrath, but that MSQ gating...
Can I be the green one?? Big Grin


RE: Characters You Will Never Play - Spethah - 05-15-2015

Male Highlander monk that goes Fist of the North Star on his enemies and does Jojo poses.

...I really want to do it for the giggles but I just can't.


RE: Characters You Will Never Play - Kellach Woods - 05-16-2015

If you want Jojo poses, you play Arcanist. They cast using a very Part 2-style handgesture.

You don't even get Pummel as Monk.

Anyhoo, I have a ton of concepts I'm never gonna play, with names too. So here you go.

* * *

Name: Aurimont Balzac
Concept: Most Hateful Paladin You Ever Met
Race: Duskwight Elezen
Quote: 
"I'd give the continent away to the Garleans if they weren't somehow even worse than everyone else."
 
Character Traits:
- Hates you, Ul'dah, Gridania, Limsa Lominsa, Ala Mhigo, Ishgard, Sharlayan, and did I say you?

- Has essentially been kicked out of every city and not gotten killed somehow. No one knows how.

- Technically does have a heart of gold enough to actually consider paladinhood, he's just not likely to show it.

Name: Cwinuwil Fyrfolgsyn
Concept: Big ass ninja, former drunk, even former armorer
Race: Sea Wolf Roegadyn
Quote: 
"Hide in the shadows? I AM the shadow."

Character Traits:
- Maxed out physical attributes. Huge af.


- Used to be an armorer until his forge blew up. Fearful of fire since then.


- Would use a Mythril facemask as his way to hide his face.

Child characters within the 10-16 range.

I have wanted to do it once or twice. Never will come to fruition though. They just come with too much fine print to do it for extended periods of time.


RE: Characters You Will Never Play - schuriscloa - 05-23-2015

So-so case
Cordelia Celestine

Ciara Branwen

Jocelyn Sagitta

Anthea Danika

Why I can't play them: Haven't found a rp linkshell on Siren that's focused on rping.
