New to Balmung: A lost Xaela! - Cursetin - 03-16-2017
Hello and Good...Evening?!
Final Fantasy is pretty much my only MMO...unless you count the week I spent trying to get into Guild Wars. I don't really count it, so XIV is it for me! I do, however, have RP experience - just not RP in the game setting. I'm very excited to give it a shot! I found this place here by googling, to be honest. I'm glad that such a website exists!
Character-wise, I've already created a character - Enkhtuya Kha - a male Xaela, taking the last name from the lorebook to suggest he actively seeks out other clans and peoples. I'm not entirely sure what I want to do with him, though. I kind of see him as a bit lost and confused, maybe having found his way to the cities by a series of accidents, or by following people who seemed interesting enough. Are there any threads here to get some ideas for the Xaela Au'Ra? Or anyone who has a need for a hardworking creature? I'm not entirely married on the archer/bard bit for him, either. I could play any of the classes, if there's a niche someone needs filling!
I'll probably be on the medium side of the RP scale, in that between work and my main, I'll probably only be on a few nights a week...but I can forum/email/discord RP at any point too! I'll have to test the waters to see how far this takes me.
Real-life me lives in Toronto, with a black cat, and really wants someone to go to Snakes and Lattes with, even just once.

Hey there and welcome aboard to the RPC and to RP in 14!Â
There's a whole lot of niches out in the general community, so you really have the lion's pick. There's stuff from clans to merchant guilds, knowledge seekers, treasure hunters- yes, even antagonist groups like the mob. It helps if you have a particular direction that interests you the most! From there, you can create a Making Connections post and start networking with other people pretty rapidly. All in all, you've got a lot to look forward to!

Thank you! <3
I will have to give him some more thought, for sure! The world is very, very open to me...and of course, the possibility of his niche and story changing over time! That is the beauty of RP after all.
