Newbie Seeking RP Friends and Connections - Kels - 06-01-2014

I'm rather new to this game. Only been playing for less than a month and I've yet to make any friends to play with. I need RP connections. Characters for mine to meet, maybe some they already know from their pasts. . . that type of thing.

Important points about my RP:

Server - Balmung

Lore Correct - I always play by the lore of the game I'm on, which includes but is not limited to naming conventions.

Daytime Player – I work, so I can't stay up all hours of the night Rping. This is one of the reasons I haven't found people to rp with yet, I know a group that only plays when I'm asleep. I need one that keeps similar hours as I do so we can all have fun and I never get left out of the story.
Weekdays 6pm-10pm CDT (4-8 PDT)
Weekends 8am-10pm CDT (6am-8pm PDT)

IC Love - Romance is okay but, ERP not my style. I'm a fade-to-black kind of girl.


My characters:

I have several characters and all of them I've kept pretty loose backgrounds on so that there is room for others to come in with past connections on their own characters for a more rounded rp story. Also, because I'm new to this game I'm sure I've gotten a lore piece wrong here or there.

Raimondaux Rouchet has been a pretty bloody pirate in his past life. There was/is wanted posters that called him Bloody Fist Rai. His full name wasn't known in pirate circles and during those times he heads inland he goes more by his full name, never having liked the pirate name to begin with. Despite having been a blood thirsty killer out to line his pockets with whatever he could take, he has a large heart for orphans and those displaced by the Calamity. I'll probably be slowly taking him more toward good guy and less cut throat pirate as his story progresses, but a lot of that might depend on what happens to him on that journey and what other players bring to the table there.

He's not much of a talker, and can often be seen sitting alone on benches around Ul'dah. Most often near the chocobo renter person or in the Gold Court. He likes the sound of water and the comfort of stone over his head. He is a duskwight  Elezen. He also hates weather. . Or well any weather that isn't sunny with a soft breeze. His side cover while in Ul'dah is courier. He can be seen moving around the city delivering messages and packages and will take such jobs IC as well.

Jhak Gold doesn't know where he's from.He's a Hyur Midlander, but was injured during The Calamity and can't remember his life before that event. Gold isn't Jhak's real surname, he forgot it, so his friends called him Gold because it's a pirate's favorite thing and the color of Jhak's hair. He's young, somewhere in his early twenties maybe. He was found in Ul'dah among the other refugees by Raimondaux Rouchet and taken into piracy. That particular crew of pirates was some of those who were having trouble letting go of their old ways and event since the Calamity have gotten into a spot of trouble with the law. The ship was attacked and sunk and the captain was arrested/captured. (I've left even that part open to a lot of details in case others wanted to come in as rivals pirates, law enforcement, the displaced captain . .whom was never named but the boys have referred to her as a woman.) Jhak and Raimy got into an argument as Jhak wanted to save the captain, but Raimy wouldn't let him. Another friend of theirs had gotten injured and Raimy thought it was more important to get Li to safety than save the captain, claiming she could take care of herself. When they got to shore, they parted ways however. Jhak went to Limsa Lominsa hoping to hear word of his captain and the rest of the crew and to learn more about the old book he's found. Now he's on his way to becoming an arcanist. He's also trying the adventurer thing as his cover and a way to make a few coin in a legal manner.

Side note: Raimy is in Ul'dah again to try and locate Jhak's missing family or information about his young friend to try and make things up to him. Raimy isn't the type to apologize, but tries to make it right in other ways. And I'm sure he has other shady reasons for being there as well, just not sure what those are yet.

[Image: KherahLiKhazar.png]
Kherah'li Khazhar is a Miqo'te Keeper of the Moon. His pirate friends often just call him Li. He seems pretty laid back and easy going on the surface, maybe a bit of a goof, but that is all his front. Like Jhak he can't find his family. Which is why he was taken in by Raimy and became a pirate. The crew became his family and his captain his new mother. Now that she's gone he's returned to The Shroud to see if he can find more survivors of his biological family. They lived in an area that was hit by The Calamity and he believes most of them to be lost, but holds out hope he'll find a sister or two, or even his mother has survived. Otherwise his story is wide open for connections from his past. Li had no skills and couldn't help when the ship went down, so he has decided to learn to be an archer. It's not practical for a pirate ship, but his pirate friends aren't around to tell him that at the moment.

[Image: KikiruKiru.png]
Kikiru Kiru is a Dunesfolk Lalafell. She is spunky with a mouth as big as she is short. I have no other backstory set up for her yet at all. She is wide open for suggestions and connections. She thinks that others are too tall and should watch where they are going. She always feels like she's about to get stepped on and this puts her in an almost permanent irritated mood. If a cute boy Lalafell stops to flirt with her she will smile and eventually run away. In her mind this is playing hard to get. (Yes I've done this a few times.)

Others: I also have a few other characters in the make that I haven't actually put in the game yet. All of them female. A Highlander Hyur I thought about going marauder with. (She was going to be the pirate captain mentioned above, but then I realized I didn't want to play that many of my own background characters.) A Hellsguard for whom I haven't decided a class yet, probably lancer.

And Tanya, a Midlander Hyur who is all set to be my black mage someday.


If any of these characters interest you and you are a lore correct player who plays around the times I can be on, then please hit me back and we can talk more or set something up. Or if you see me out and about in the world, I'm always IC, just stop my character and chat or interact or whatever.

Always willing to meet new faces :3


RE: Newbie Seeking RP Friends and Connections - Rosekitten - 06-01-2014

I'm normally free-ish during the day, at nights i tend to shy to be more afk to spend time with the hubby when hes off work ^^;

So if you see me without the afk tag up odds are i'm free. 

I'll try to keep a eye out for your characters in various spots though~


RE: Newbie Seeking RP Friends and Connections - Merie - 06-01-2014

I'm usually online on random hours in the quicksand!

...well...when I'm back to the game that is...

But yea! Looking forward to meeting you someday ^^


Newbie ♥ You - Kels - 06-01-2014

Everyone,

Wow, I didn't really expect so many responses the first day of the post. Thanks everyone for showing some interest in my humble characters. I look forward to seeing you all around. 

Sometimes I'm too shy to walk up to others IC to initiate rp, but will always respond, (unless I went afk without warning.) 

♥,
Newbie
