*Wave* Hello! - Orphyn - 09-26-2015
Hullo!
New here. Well. New to FFXIV, really. I've been playing for about 3 days. Fun stuff! Currently on Faerie but plan to try and transfer to Balmung if I can. Love me a good 'Arpee' hub!
--MMORPG background
Oh gawd. I started about 13-14 years ago..Ish?
Does Runescape count? It was my first taste of 'MMO' life.
Officially started with F2P (aka Pay2win) MMO's. Mostly Korean grindfests. -_- I really loved PvP. ^.^ Played these for 3-4 years.
Moved onto Warcraft for a couple years. Forsaken ftw!
Played some Defiance. (Was fun for an FPS mmo).
Ummm.. moved onto Planetside 2Â
Guild Wars 2 for a few.
Got really into The Secret World. Highly advised for hardcore horror fans to check it out. Very adult community.
 Really enjoyed the modern day theme. :3Hrm.Â
Tried games like Tera, Rift, and Vindictus. Vin had great combatm but the rest is sucky.
Also got into Destiny (my side "mmo"). I love me FPS goodness.
So now here I am in FFXIV!
--RP experience
I've been RPing for 15+ years. :3 I started in a text-based MUD (technically two at the same time) and fell in love immediately. I still visit those MUDs every now and again! I used to play D&D and Rifts, but hard to get everyone together these days. >.<
I am not a great writer any more. After quitting the text based muds and being a stupid teenager, my brain kind of... died. BUT! I'm slowly trying to get everything back in swing. :3
--Character ideas/info
I just... wing it. ^.~Â
Most of my Arpee is random and off the fly. I am not much for planning anything because, for me, it detracts from the RP experience. I prefer not knowing what is going to happen, or what to expect.Â
Currently I play a little troublemaker modelled after a previous OC. She's a fighter! Hard willed, kind of punkish in attitude, new to everything around. The rest will manifest as I go, I guess.
I do have several alts already, as well. Everything from a brutish marauder to a creepy little magii.Â
--How did you learn about the coalition?
Um. No idea what the coalition is...Â
Is it the forum/website? If it's the forum/website... I just googled 'FFXIV roleplayers'.
 I like hunting down communities!If it's not the forum/website... then.. no idea. <_<
--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
Heavy!Â
Like... 24/7 IC dealy. Yuppers!
Â
--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc)
Um. Long timer gamer. I have thousands of video games.
I work for a F2P game company. Job is good, games are not. *cough*
I am very competitive in FPS and PvP games.
 Sometimes it gets me in trouble because I am not the most gracious loser. 
I have tried some video editing work. I'm so-so. I enjoy making forum signatures and manipulations! They were so much fun to do.
Easy to get along with I think. Forum whore. And. Other stuff. Iunno.Â
Anyway. Hello!

The coalition does indeed refer to this site here
 "Hydaelyn Roleplayers Coalition", sometimes referred to as the "RPC" as well. Welcome aboard ^^

Nice to see a person with Madda's usual MMO history! Madda loved TSW, it's a real shame that there's this flux in the air as Funcom nears the verge of bankruptcy.
Welcome to FFXIV!

Hello there! Welcome to the RPC and, eventually, Balmung
RE: *Wave* Hello! - Eses Fafa - 09-27-2015
