- Occasional stops in inns and taverns throughout the trade routes.

RE: You might know me from... - DreamedReality - 08-05-2013
Starting about three years ago. When he was a wandering drunkard from the outskirts of the Shroud. Perhaps you gambled with him. Gave him a handout. Had a drunken brawl with him. Or perhaps you taunted him and scorned him. Or simply tried your best to ignore him.
Very recently, you might have seen him in Ul'dah. He seems to have cleaned himself up and has not been begging or drunk as far as anyone has seen, if one recognizes him from the Black Shroud region.
Rumor has it that he's joined the adventurer's guild. And he's been seen around the pugilists guild.
RE: You might know me from... - John Spiegel - 08-05-2013
John Spiegel - He's a seasoned adventurer with countless stories about his deeds (good and bad). Depending where/when you've met him, you might think he's a good guy or a bad guy. Like, there's times he's rampaging against a bunch of unarmed people and gets covered in guts and blood (turns out, OMG, they're god damn monks!) Or other times he's drinking milk at a bar. (omg, tuff guy!) He doesn't care about ranks (he'd tell someone to blow their rank out of their ass if they used that as some sort of entitlement badge) or names, hell, he rarely ever uses his full birthname, let alone gives anything past "JJ" because he likes that shortness of it (or something).
1527 - (age 12) - JJ's parents died when he was 2. JJ was at an Ala Mhigo military orphanage thing. JJ killed a mean dude in Ala Mhigo that brutally beat someone JJ cared for and got the hell out of Dodge.
1530 - 1545 (15-30) - JJ gained a name for himself as an adventurer and fighter, though you would get mixed signals. Age 16 he burned his scalp leading to him being bald. Age 23 he lost his right eye. So he's ~6'6", bald, eyepatched and carries either a greatsword/scythe or both at times in solid darksteel armor.
1545 - 1557 (30-42) - JJ kind of dropped off the map or at least didn't go slay dragons and crap for a couple years (wanted to raise kids in a non-single-parent home) JJ and family work as smugglers and live some ways out of Ala Mhigo, getting people that were being killed for their beliefs out of the nation when King Theodorac came into power (1552). When the Garleans came through, JJ his wife and a couple monks fought them off to buy everyone else time to escape.
1557 - 1572 (42-54) - JJ returns to full-time adventuring. His children are adults, his wife was killed, his home (second time his life got dropkicked majorly). He just got up, dusted himself off and went onward to new adventures.
1572 - JJ was at Bahamut's Big Birthday Hissy Fit. He fought as a freelance fighter, refusing to fly any of the defending nations' sigils or even his fallen homeland. Got timewarped.
RE: You might know me from... - Flynn Rosenberg - 08-14-2013
You might know Flynn from..
- The poor streets of Ul'dah. Growing up there wasn't easy after the Empire invaded his place of birth, Ala Mhigo.
- The shop keepers. Flynn's helped out in the markets for years to earn a living.
- The Brass Blades. He joined them for a short while but left after a mission went wrong. They'll likely tell you they fired him, but that's not what happened.
- Prison. Oh he's been there a few times, making a scene were the guards cause trouble for the poor.

RE: You might know me from... - Annaveil - 08-15-2013
What a cool idea!
You might know Eve from...
- Anywhere in/around Ul'dah.
- If you're eyeing a posted bounty with intent on going out after it, she might propose a partnership. (This is her main form of finding work, so if you'd like to say we did do a job together at one time then that's fine!)
- Once in a while she'll pop down to Limsa Lominsa, but the last time she went was before the Calamity.
- She studied briefly at Gridania and sometimes revisits to check in on friends.
RE: You might know me from... - Ryanti - 08-15-2013
You just might know Ryanti from...
- Ul'Dah. Mostly the rich sectors, like the Royal section. He is known to engage in social discussions near the fountain of the Alchemist's Guild. He has also ventured around the outside of the city, a few times, notably more often after the calamity.
You just might know Lorenthian (Ryanti's father) from...

- Ul'Dah. Pretty much everywhere. He is known as a very respected Immortal Flame, holding a high ranking position in the military before semi-retiring. If your character has any knowledge of military inquiries, you have probably heard of him.

- The Pugilist guild: IC, she is primary a martial artist, so it is another one of her trainning hotspots. It's possible that you might have sparred with her once...
