Greetings, everyone! - Nerashi Qalli - 04-24-2015
Hello there, everyone! My name's Kelly, though the internet tends to call me Kelz or Kaelryn. My character on FFXIV, however, is called Raiya, an adorable little Miqo'te.
I'm actually completely new to FFXIV, as well as Final Fantasy in general. I am not, however, new to RP and am looking forward to learning to lore and getting to know all of you! I have previous RP experience on Guild Wars 2, as well as on various RP forums and chat rooms.
Feel free to shoot me a friend request or messages in game - I'd love to make some friends as I'm getting started!

Are there any RP hubs in game that people tend to hang out around?

Ul'dah and the Quicksand in particular are popular. I've been away from the game for a little while, so I'm not sure where else is popular these days, but I've heard Gridania is pretty popular too.

Howdy and Welcome!

Hello, Kelly, welcome to Balmung and the RPC!
This was my first FF game, as well!
RE: Greetings, everyone! - Nebbs - 04-24-2015
Welcome to the server, my first FF too. You should fit right in with RPs.
The FF lore is out there and quirky (that my view as it seems to only loosely associate across the various games). The good news is following the main story etc.. will introduce you to things, and there are pockets of lore on the interwebs.
Check out the Linkshell tab above, there you will find Linkshells (chat groups) and Free Companies (guilds) some of which will likely take your fancy. Add to that the events calender and you should be good to get connected.
Fell free to ask for connections and help as that seems to work okay. Or frequent the RP hubs others mentions for a diverse set of RP opportunities.
Enjoy, it is a beautiful game and the RP crowd here is alive and great.

Greetings.
You will find your typical warm welcomings here.
Do not be afraid or hesitate to poke anyone in this thread (or who posts anywhere else on the forum) if you see 'em in game if you want to get random RP started.

hihi :3 if you happen to see me run by at any point gimme a poke if you need anything. if you're interested in open rp; check out the event thread and calendar as well. a looooot of free companies/people put on events that are open to go to. some are nearby, some in other areas that might need a specific level requirement to uh...not get eaten on the way xD (but people usually are more than willing to escort lower level players and kill anything that looks at them funny! ) and a quite a few free company events are hosted out of their home in one of the housing districts (flower beds, mist or the goblet) as they rp their fc home as a inn/bar/bath-house ect ect. if you see one that sparks your interest but have questions about the event; feel free to post in their thread! :3

As has already been mentioned the busiest city-center for RP is Ul'dah, and the Quick Sand is an obvious hub, but RP can be found in many places.
